I see I see, ya anyway err betul tu ya but I heard [kan] itu kalau you nak pakai wahed invest then


but how much ah the fees is it cheap to to put in money inside


ya ya, okay apa eh nak bilang you oh ya anyway I I found out there is days, new way, technically grow your money but with very low return lah so macam kalau you got some money to invest but you you are still looking for investment opportunity and you don't want to put the money in the bank let let's say you got two thousand dollars then you tak nak letak it in the bank lah


so if you it an alternative is I was just looking at this it's called the UOB money market fund so it's quite good because you invest like one thousand dollars in these funds right then it will technically a new saham returns tapi tak banyak the goal of this fund is to just preserve a capital when this ends so it's like uh macam it's like a savings account with a little bit more uh


return that you get back and then also they're they're in their brochure they say they are supportive of socially responsible investing which means dia orang tak invest in a alcohol gambling pork related literary predicted of tobacco


return that you get back and then also they're they're in their brochure they say they are supportive of socially responsible investing which means dia orang tak invest in a alcohol gambling pork related literary predicted of tobacco, so, wasted lah I think like a lot of people macam lot of banks they don't really know that bonds are tak halal


so, ya lah wasted kalau dia orang tak invest in bonds then kita dah boleh letak duit kat dalam [seh] if this can be our like primary savings account you know took up the money inside here, right [kan]


ya lah I call lah I call lah I bilang lah kenapa ni right


that's true that's true, I I I think like the the notion of ethical investing is like getting more, gaining popularity lah because like you know , eh not not UN sorry it's the IMF international monetary fund right


they recently like two years back I think they they started to look at islamic finance and they are pushing forward lah for, for the idea of islamic finance because technically you are being you are being very ethical with your investing and also macam in terms of risks right you are not passing so much risk towards their consumer so


that's why I think err, they are pushing it like especially in like the middle eastern countries so it's quite good but but unfortunately I feel like singapore macam not progressive yet in term of islamic finance, ya possibly because even a lot of like muslim


people or other muslims they will still invest in, interest yielding accounts and maybe dia orang tak tahu lah it's haram because you would need to kind of know mah yang kita tak boleh yang interest and all bonds are tak halal I mean this is not like general knowledge so I think that's one thing you know education is important within the muslim community


ya ya ya betul betul betul I was looking at the equivalent of bonds so called a interpreter islamic finance so I mean interesting lah because uh one good thing is our neighbour malaysia they are err they technically malaysia and indonesia they issue a lot of SOCOE so


maybe there's one thing we can consider lah, so ya, SOCOE will be a good tapi I pun macam tak faham sangat lah how how the SOCOE investment works but halal [kan] dia [kan] so boleh lah eh


ya so, ya, oh kita punya trip eh ah I tak tahu lah I I punya adik kejap eh I call my adik hello


I tak tahu dia punya ada like a mix of a and I don't know dia makan apa tapi bau dia like one kind you know toxic toxic


so


ya ya itu I I I tu tak okay ha ha so anyway


, ya lor actually semua pun dah agree apa sunday semua okay


!aiyo! unless kita just go somewhere to like makan lor, then after that we just lepak then because you say she want a weekend actually we can do another day where we can have everyone work together then we can cycle and all right so if you want maybe today we can just go somewhere to like lepak and makan lor


okay , I tak tahu what are good things for us to makan eh err, I okay


I will try my very best to convince him to go, ya, but ya lah kita try lah I I pun lapar eh I I want to eat Sedap mania


there also the vibes like very nice you know, ah tengok Ubin also, eh I didn't know tau Ubin ada macam malay punya makcik jual I just recently found out I'm like what


#mee sua#, ya I mean


ya lah okay tak nanti I kena banyak pujuk adik I lah, they have a lunch promo I think it's seven dollars or eight dollars and eighty or like macam let's say chicken set then you get your own in individual soup base then you get your own


ya ya kita dah missed confirm lah


it actually it sounds like a plan you know let me see ah besok monday I think I got nothing on


ya worst come to worst me you adam, oh what's new ah like or rather what because december semua holidays we should like explore more places


Marsiling tanya lah


ya , ya, car lite I think is err I think kalau the most expensive one right is err four dollars per four or six dollars per fifteen minutes


ya but the cheapest is two dollar per fifteen minutes, ya


ya, actually one hour eight dollar blue SG oh tak lah blue blue SG lagi mahal lah, okay


ya so, ah ya lah, , I haus so ini air mineral water eh


oh tak lah ini kecil punya meadows


so


okay so we can review about I don't know, business ideas


!huh!, ah ya sekarang I see biscoff dekat NTUC out of stock kat lazada out of stock


ya, coconut oil I I tak jual I beli pasal itu for rambut bagus sama rambut I sekarang macam berang [kan] so bagus ah bagus moisturising


at this block block block sebelas eh


ah block block tu I dengar dulu dulu banyak banyak dayak eh block tu ada dadah semua I heard a lot of stories you know about the block, I don't know lah


oh oh your uncle was from there, so ya ya, ya so what did your uncle say though about about the block


it is it like your uncles or your friend like who is this person, oh okay okay


oh, ya so macam mana you tahu ni Q tinggal kat #boon keng#


oh, I I curious lah macam you know this kind of at risk areas what are the demographic of the people


oh


like !wah! so I mean not bad eh walaupun dia tinggal at risk block mak dia doctor


but ya ya this mom is specialising in what kind of medicine ah, I I'm wondering uh honestly curious


oh interesting eh psychology, ah psychology you pernah nampak tak dia punya dia punya mak I mean it will be very interesting you know to talk to her you know her antics and all


!wah!, very good very good I mean now nowadays they say you cannot specialized you need to generalize you know in your career, diversify [kan]


I actually now you speaking of which ah I think I met someone like this you know tak tahu orang sama ke this one this doctor like I'm talking about


ya so maybe lah it's the it's the same person lah loves animal right


a lot of careers ya, but I mean okay lah so maknya consider good lah doctor


so I feel like if your mom is the psychologist then your daughter cannot be like that you know, maybe dia punya anak needs treatment lah like like do you think so


oh mother's gossip


ya ya ya betul tu maybe what we can do is we can actually find this Q your distant relative we can ajak her lah go makan oh maybe Sedap mania you know I heard right although they are like you know in this kind of bad situation they got a lot money in their bank account you know


uh maybe we should help lah we should help please tell


so in the end you know it's gonna eat her up internally lah eh macam mana her eh I tau eat him or her up like internally, so it's important lah to seek medical treatment I say I mean twenty twenty now mental health is very important


so ya, they're not stigmatized lah in


ah ya ya I I I redeem it I put it on nineteen as well which is this coming saturday lah, ah Sentosa is it, that's how ah we've got twenty dollars worth of credits right


so Sentosa maybe we can


picnic, I don't know cycle, we can, sit at the bar ah, you know we can just hang around at Sentosa Sentosa I think we can go to the


deeper deeper parts lor, ah yes yes maybe we can go there also over the fort Serapong can just cycle there I don't think it's very far, it's like within the


I'm not sure about the


whether it's legal or not, I would I would think these kind of place, they don't say lah they don't say illegal they don't say it's legal but then they will say if anything happens to you then, you cannot claim compensation lah because it's at your own risk mah you masuk tempat gitu so


ya but I think we just be very careful like you want to visit all of these places and I think now because we are in lock down and all there's nothing much we can do so, I think you know the COVID and the circumstances has pushed us to you know venture, find out all these spaces within our own country which is good lah cause kalau kalau tak then we wouldn't have even thought about this right so only you know interesting interesting


oh ya ya how much is it ah


I'm not too sure I really don't, oh ya we can do that also uh I think twenty dollar thing can get us about three right


err can lah I mean, we we can go for the luge but luge is like, can also then luge macam laju lah a bit too fast don't you think so


ya as in eh as in the the timing also lah


I anytime if some more if it's on a saturday then I think will be best if we go, we can go malam lah or we can go like in the evening macam cold [kan] begitu so macam sunset


not pergi maghrib I mean, can also lah because okay if you want right because we get about twenty dollars but do we have do we have to book on the tickets in advance


okay okay then then good lah I would think of saturday banyak orang but it should be fine lah should be fine lah


I I sekarang tengah tengok harga per the hit rock VR mahal juga, err let me see eh err


three rides one blue one orange one green thirty five dollars, I I don't quite understand, so many rides lah but I think it'll be different


ya ya that that's the lowest yang ada but other one is seven rides seventy five dollars and one ride is only five minutes yo, a'ah lah laju sangat ah


wait ah let me see ah apa lagi kita boleh buat dekat sana because it's only participating attractions so uh, madame tussauds


eh I heard dia banyak burung uh okay anyway I tengok hit rock VR actually ada boleh lah err, ya green zone so green zone and orange zone one ride is ten token


blue zone one ride is fifteen token so boleh lah mampu kalau you nak two rides from green orange or blue zone, twenty err twenty token


okay , AJ hackett the jumping one right fifty five token


there is uh another one ah gogreen segway the segway it's only five token for


thirty minutes one hour ten token by pedal bicycle, eh ni macam interesting juga eh, ya naik segway


ya I think it's okay ten token worth it one hour [seh] one hour we can it's a very long time lah not bad [seh], let me see eh kayak eh takde lah


ya don't have their have eco adventure but I don't think there is kayak, we can take cable car if you want cable car is twenty token, mount faber and Sentosa and it's a round trip


so you can take it from mount faber, budding air, actually we can take cable car I I pun tak pernah naik so if you want we can take the Sentosa one just three dollars mah


ya ya ya so we can do that lah so it sounds like a plan ya I think it it or if you want Sentosa island bus tour ten token I mean macam lame lah, ya lah we can oh got mega adventure park


mega bounce ten ten token two mega two mega zip sixty five token kira mahal lah mega jump fifteen token, actually kalau nak boleh juga kita boleh ten token lah untuk segway, then lagi the other ten token kita naik this


ya so we ten ten so we get to take err two different attractions lah which I think a bit quite nice eh some more plus cable car then after that, ya eh what is mega bounce mega bounce


bike, !aiya! I guess not too sure but okay lah we can check there out we can check that out some more I mean we are not paying you know technically it's free so let's just do that


so I mean we we can see lah what else we want but I think to really maximise the segway is good because it's at whole one hour then I think, there will be a tour guide so then you can like literally explore a lot of places in Sentosa just by the segway


eh boleh lah you jangan kita kita tak buat banyak banyak benda lah, ya so okay lah so nineteen nineteen so which is this sunday right this saturday right


then actually kalau nak kita boleh beli the twelve piece chicken just now I was telling you about the shake shack duck that one


err, err let me think maybe dekat maple city ah dekat and it's halal so shake shack in a duck


ya betul tu err they have one in great world city, it is the nearest MRT station is #tiong baru#


I am sure a bit out of the way ah unless we can nak kalau nak kita boleh beli dekat #ang mo kio# hub eh


twelve dollars I'm not too sure tapi worth it [seh] twelve dollars


uh I'm not sure about the harga biasa but I think it will be much more than that lah definitely much more than that but actual price I am not too sure actually I pun tak pernah makan I just saw this on the telegram group


and I am like !wow! not bad not bad not bad interesting, oh eleven to fifteen december, so we got two more weeks actually so okay lah that's ons saturday tak boleh lah, ya lah but really looks good lah this section letak yucks okay


so ya segway so we segway for one hour


err they say okay so segway one hour eh I salah kot kejap eh, oh dia bukan segway dia bipedal bicycle for one hour


tersalah so lah so the ten token right is for a bipedal bicycle


I I I tak tahu I I would think so, ya depan belakang [kan]


segway is fifteen token tapi five hundred meter saja lah half a KM, basic ah [seh]


eh okay token dia sixty token kalau you want one skydive


ya original price eighty nine dollars, okay lah I mean okay so I think kita kalau nak we can go mega adventure park we can do one mega bound, or one mega jump then


err actually we can do the BR also lah the BR is ten token


ten token for one ride so kalau you nak we can do err one BR which is like five minutes confirm tak cukup tapi okay lah one one of BR ride and the other one is err the mega bounce mega zip so ten plus ten


you know that's one way lah we can if you want kita pun boleh pergi sea aquarium also ten token and it's it's a tour open ocean discovery tour sea aquarium, you know it's not bad ah usual price twenty two dollars


eh actually this one better if you want we should go for the sea aquarium tour ten token then the other ten we go mega bounce lor, ya more better than one hour [jer], yup yup


ya SG bike got a lot of things lah then maybe you know sit somewhere carry marrybrown if you wanna, or marrybrown or or or we can just go #ce la vi# eat Aspirasi mah


we can go the #ce la vi# hawker centre eat the Aspirasi, tak eh sedap [seh] I've been to Aspirasi, ya or maybe we can go there makan first at #seah im# the Aspirasi then after that we head into Sentosa lah because [kan] nak naik the monorail also it's free what


so we can just ya we can just probably do that lor


ya three two two or three eh what do you mean force rabung maghrib [pe]


I think adam pernah pergi force rabung and he he say that is okay leh but he went in the day, ya that's why maybe tonight kalau jumpa then he can tell you more about it lah


so oh my god,


eh okay lah so next saturday nineteen kita pergi lah what whatever time lah because I think kalau nak morning is gonna be difficult like habis not possible, two o'clock would be a very macam practical time two to three o'clock


ya two o'clock, oh okay lah actually we plan for three so two is a buffer time, let me see sea aquarium tutup pukul five


I am not sure but okay [lah] even if we okay let's say we meet at three


one, oh nevermind lah


oh no lah I was just looking at the jurassic mile, , I think track in Changi airport, it looks quite interesting lah I think kita should pergi like, today or some some some time maybe I I [dah]


err is it Sedap mania or something quite cheap right if I'm not wrong


err


have have they got those suggest sliced beef, ya, hotplate pun ada macam-macam lah


a'ah


ya, so


ya, Hafizah


most likely ah, oh he he came back he had something on is it just now


oh, so


oh ya we can do that also oh


car lite I think a bit mahal because weekend then must top up petrol some more, but lucky got sinopec lah


anyway


oh belum masih dalam bag dalam bag Hafizah, ya betul betul actually kita boleh makan kat ni garden you want or not


dining in the garden #ang mo kio# ah, ada fifty percent, okay


oh


oh, okay lah, I mean ya kita boleh ada alternative kat sana banyak alternative


oh jom ah kita pergi sedap mania, oh


oh Jinjja eh, jewel


a'ah, ya I mean apa tu okay lah kalau nak kita pergi cuba so our trip can be from


Changi village then after that, you know maybe bau [jer] Sedap mania habis tu kita nak bicycle, Jinjja chicken like like I think it was like a few months back


then ah the queue was like really very long at jewel that time Jinjja chicken lah I don't know why was it so long also I think I went there on, so the queue ah panjang ah lepas tu tempat dia duduk kena like they put us in front of the entrance so it was very awkward lah duduk kat depan orang nak lalu-lalang lalu lintas so


I tak tahu lah apa tu macam mana begitu but, ya like singapore memang got a lot of halal foods like, what what are the underrated punya food places ah the rating it to worth exploring today maybe


how about A&W baru halal [kan]


twelve chicken pieces for twelve dollars how big is the, how big is it, ya, !wah! cheap eh


a'ah [seh], ya true also tapi tak boleh cycling


not really sure I think macam crab meat, hot dogs, Shiitake cendawan Shiitake, ya memang yummy


ya ya ya, Satay soup base, !huh! really, oh, oh


oh, oh


K boleh ah


err


so, so far, I nak try lah baru try try I nak try stock then I macam rasa-rasanya tesla will grow lah in the future


in the future, so, by investing in macam electric car company ini [kan] all those clean energy ones, uh


electric cars


so hopefully that one day I will reap the benefits lah, so what do you think how about you


!huh! serious


ya lah ya lah


ah


alcohol, things that, are not allowed lah in islam so I think in generally if you know the company, and like you know what they do right you will have an idea on


what they invest in so if like if they are halal then you just go ahead lah with it, that's my pandangan lah on this


diversify lah our portfolio you cannot keep all your eggs in one basket you have to like macam , segregate your assets lah so I think one good err platform to that we can use is


I as far as I know this is the


so based on that right they will just take your money invest in the different kinds of, uh, commodities ah macam cash ke gold


investing in macam these kind of companies, and ya and this kind of company is like you don't need, you don't have to put in effort lah you just letak your money then you just, uh forget about it, so I think that better than like putting in a bank


and, and nothing will grow in a bank, right


oh okay so like, based on my experience dia punya fees is, err ten, ten singapore dollars I think for per transaction which means if you want to find your account right if the bank will deduct ten dollars as a service charge lah then when you want to withdraw also they will they will charge you ten dollars so this is one one of the downside lah of of using


Wahed invest, , how to say eh, what err things you have to face lah if you want to go through the halal way, right because I'm sure there are other than other platforms yang offer no service charge or something but then you you don't know what they are investing in


ya so you have to put up lah with this all these service charge lah when these banks


new way


true, maybe you can feedback to UOB jangan invest in bonds


I mean you want apa ethical investing eh in at the end of the day that's what you want to achieve what right so I mean if you can like, do it the halal way then it's the best lah


ah correct


a'ah deep, ya correct lah I mean because anyway singapore there's not many options I don't think there's any, options for halal investing also, if I'm not wrong ya so I mean you must start with with


those the regular accounts lah me you have no choice what tapi that's why err you have to do your own research lah if you really want to go into investing right cannot just like anyhow take, err mana-mana company I mean mana-mana banks


so dia punya kentut signify more to yes ke more to no


okay lah ya


ya maybe dia malas lah tapi anyway dia dah agree apa sunday dia okay


#jalan kayu# ah, I okay


ya correct, oh


ya that's why, I mean good lah good I mean next time next time we go we should try lah, Mee soup


oh so kita dah [dah] missed lah


oh


you know it's time to do something you to find out about singapore


I pakai my army boot steady, actually we should explore these places sia, we can okay lah listen to it later lah takkan nak busuk busuk semua but I mean take the car car lite lah car lite maybe we go in the day, then we explore these like macam make sense lor


how much is it ah car lite in the day what are the rates again do you remember


!huh! mahal [pe], serious ah so one one hour is six twelve eh two dollars right so one hour eight dollars


ya blue SG is is expensive


ah ni ah meadows eh


uh, business ideas eh, (hmm), maybe we can sell biscoff


oh, out of stock eh


social mission eh, maybe ah, how about those yang tinggal kat at risk blocks


#boon keng# eh #boon keng# ada ke at risk block


oh ya I heard also from my uncles because dia orang cakap dia punya kawan pun tinggal sana semua residents


err I mean, ya lah mean that kind of place also quite dangerous eh need to protect those children


ya because I got ya I I know someone who stays there


my one of my one of my distant relative lah


oh okay lah lame oh nama dia uh


no lah it's one of my relatives lah dia quite kesian lah so


oh datuk dia ah, uh, so okay lah cuma kesian lah dia seorang kat rumah dia takde adik beradik [kan] then mak dia mak dia doctor actually


for I didn't talk about food you know


I'm not sure tapi I think dia general practitioner lah I don't think that specialize in anything


err


same


ya I think betul lah I mean like kesian juga ah like people look down right all these people tapi in actual fact right you put any human being in that kind of, environment ah I'm talking about the block eh bukan the orang-orang lah block lah you put in that kind of block macam lonely [kan] takde family I mean takde support adik-beradik so any human being will also macam experience something will experience the same thing lah


so ya cannot look down instead we must help you know maybe like talk or something


right correct oh ya kita we are going to Sentosa on nineteen december [kan], ya we can redeem then we can go on nineteen right


oh K lah ya can lah then we, you have any like attractions in mind, ya


correct


oh is it the fort Siloso fort Serapong


or is it illegal


true true true, can lah I mean, maybe like on saturday we can, go for the VR thing you know the hit rock VR, because there's a cheaper one right


that's one of the cheaper ones right, or nak main luge


correct correct


the satisfaction eh, oh what time do, what what time do you intend to go


but then kalau kita nak explore fort Serapong


err no I don't wait ah I don't think so eh I think you on the spot if I'm not wrong at the counter right redeem


five minutes !alah! tak worth it lah , tapi tu


boring ah


oh green zone


ya ten [jer] ya


fifty five eh, oh bukan bungee jumping eh


oh, ya correct same lah


one hour, ten tokens eh, okay juga [seh] murah [seh]


three dollars tapi boring ah I think ya, ah can ah we can do that also just pay three dollar then okay


ya tak nak ah


ten token untuk segway boleh ah


they release you right it's like macam eh elastic banner in the release you, catapult eh, ya, ya


ya macam for us rampung ah pakai segway


yes correct, can lah can


ya, oh


great world city where is that ah, ah so far


ya it is very cheap twelve dollars, one dollar per piece,


oh okay


tak apa lah


segway cycle, Sentosa Sentosa ada SG bike right


can lah ya, ya segway is quite expensive right normal normal time


!huh!


oh bipedal isn't it a normal bicycle, or is it oh I think I know what is bipedal means dua orang boleh duduk tak payah lah easy bike [jer] lah


(mmhmm)


sixty eh


correct, eh actually


okay can also, sea aquarium jauh eh


ya, can lah I think it's very uh, ya can also, but I think that's better lah correct


then we can just SG bike lah after that, ya


what ,


ya correct free, can, ya no lah we don't go malam lah we go


see the best pagi lah, three eh


oh


ya correct


two ah two, why we leave, two is there, wait sea aquarium tutup what time


ya, five ah


eh hi austin good good you, yes err had err #wanton mee# so err ya comfort food local comfort food


err I stay around err #potong pasir# area so there's this place that just open up err #tanjong rhu# #wanton mee# ah you should have heard of it lah so it's a chain err but okay lah the Wanton mee the standard quite quite good lah quite good


ya, ya ya ya ya I mean the err spoiled for choice ah singaporeans in terms of food ah


ya ya so you you're so a foodie ah you like to go around Makan, and all that lah I suppose


ya man ya man I I hope the I actually was hoping that the discovery voucher can use for food lah rather than all the places of interest only ah because err oh I by right the F&B should also err benefit from this what right and instead of just the tourist place but err ya lah but err you've seen the queue on you in USS all that right these few days crazy right


ya lah ya lah I mean the the the F&B easily even a couple you go in easily err hundred dollar lah you usually you will have like err lunch and then some break in between right so unless you are those that will pack your own thing go in lah I've seen people do that lah but !aiya! no point lah if you want to go then just have fun lor but just the queue lah right the queue to get in I I heard the queue was like !wah! the ride ah the ride queue was two hours ah some of the rides ah because they also have distance social distance on the rides you know so they I think they also leave so err alternate ah so that's why !wah! two hours for one ride !wah! I think not not worth


the trouble to go now man


correct lor correct lor but just err got to be careful lor I meanis like err I don't understand why eight lah why not ten ah you know whoever comes out eight is like !wah! why eight is a lucky number or what I don't know I mean to me like eight and ten got any different I don't I don't see any difference ah you know it's like eight or ten what's the difference I mean err you go and #jiak toh# all that also ten what right you go chinese restaurants you have one table is usually ten mah right a not so like eight is like I don't know why eight lah but anyway better than five right


ya ya ya so we are you going to take the vaccine , are you going to be the first first batch or you think you prefer to are are you the type that [orh] wait and see lah this let the people go first


ya, but


but <mandarin>老人老人老人家:lao ren lao ren lao ren jia</mandarin> also quite scared to go first lah all these <mandarin>老人家:lao ren jia</mandarin> ah they they are very skeptical about the vaccine also so they also a bit #kia si# lah don't all the old folks ah oh actually I also don't know what to be honest they say the old folks are more vulnerable but like err this vaccine ya lah of course they do a lot of test all that lah right and err properly it's err err err safe err there might be some side effect also lah as in all vaccine is there's there's some side effect one lah but err I I don't know they if they don't make it compulsory I think the take up rate also will not be that high lah to be honest


ya but what I heard is that the effective err period for this one is only two months leh so <mandarin>两个月而已:liang ge yue er yi</mandarin> leh, after <mandarin>两个月又要打过:liang ge yue you yao da guo</mandarin> I don't know err whether <mandarin>你你:ni ni</mandarin> you know a lot of err fake news on the internet lah so I I don't know whether is it really two months if it's two months then it's like


a bit short lah right I mean you cannot be like taking this every two months also mah so err and I think the first there's two dose mah first dose is err the second dose have to be don't what twenty one days ah after the first


so don't know ah, ya ya ya ya


ya, they monitor lah ya, ya ya ya that's why nowadays err also hard to err really know what is err real lor so got to really official what what what they recommend you know anyway they say err they only probably by third quarter then they will have enough for everyone so I guess is err priority and err


err first the vulnerable the front line then slowly queue up lor right a not so but I got a feeling if they don't make compulsory a lot of people will not go and take one lah because unless you are those like you go you like you you go overseas then you probably will take the flu jab mah right a not but if you don't go overseas usually people to bother also lah #tio bo# so again depend on whether which group we're in lor right


ya ya but see lah, ya ya so


so also !wah! also quite quite Teruk ah for him <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> I I see also Sian every two weeks have to go and do the swab but used to it already lah you know but hopefully they come up with the saliva one easier lor not so traumatic for err people lor the nose one I think !wah! a bit


a bit err a bit scary also


err ya lah oh, ya #pa zam# one like !wah! the the #pa zam# old old folks lah <mandarin>老人家:lao ren jia</mandarin> very scared lah #pa zam# like my mother !wah! you see the vaccine she also don't want to go and take ah she sixty something ah sixty eight lah but she say !wah! not compulsory then don't want to take you know


because scared needle mah old folks so !wah! #pa zam# also another another problem lor so I think [orh] will just wait and see lah I mean unless they are those err err high risk one ah err they make compulsory I'm quite sure later they will make sure like all the


like my brother this this category high risk one ah always always run construction site one ah those taxi driver lah hawker ah these will be all these will be more more I think they will probably make it compulsory for them lor or they will encourage them to take lor right


no lah cannot run ah they ask you to go and take you better go and take my one of my uncle Kena that time err he not well he went to see a doctor, then he went in already see the doctor already ah then the doctor say eh err uncle <mandarin>你不可以:ni bu ke yi</mandarin> leh <mandarin>你要去你要去:ni yao qu ni yao qu</mandarin> testing leh


!wah! then he heard <mandarin>要去:yao qu</mandarin> testing Jialat he panic, then he say he don't want


then <mandarin>然后他不要他等药的时候他跑掉:ran hou ta bu yao ta deng yao de shi hou ta pao diao</mandarin> ah he he run away he never take the medicine he he run away ah he he just MIA after come out from the doctor err room ah he run away then after that ah the they trace him eh trace him down leh then they contact him why you run away eh then


he Kena I think quite Jialat that time I think err <mandarin>罚款:fa kuan</mandarin> and err of course that time !wah! jail of these they will surely will will will will #pua kang# mah right want to make you like !wah! take this seriously err trace him down leh then end up I think he pay don't know two thousand dollar fine ah !walao! for no reason eh for no reason this one that's why

, ya ya ya so <mandarin>家里穿的可以用的:jia li chuan de ke yi yong de</mandarin> lor <mandarin>袜子就真的:wa zi jiu zhen de</mandarin> I think <mandarin>我还有一箱不懂:wo hai you yi xiang bu dong</mandarin> some somewhere


I see how lah hopefully by chinese new year


ya, ya no choice ah


ya but <mandarin>就是可能会比较多:jiu shi ke neng hui bi jiao duo</mandarin> planning required lor <mandarin>就可能多少还是输:jiu ke neng duo shao hai shi shu</mandarin> lah <mandarin>因为以前:yin wei yi qian</mandarin> new year everyone come back same time everyone see everyone mah <mandarin>对不对:dui bu dui</mandarin> especially <mandarin>那种大家庭:na zhong da jia ting</mandarin> big family


, , ya one year Liao


three quarter of the err err quarter three everyone is err the vaccine is ready for everyone, err <mandarin>不是每个人去打:bu shi mei ge ren qu da</mandarin> mah <mandarin>对不对也是:dui bu dui ye shi</mandarin> so I don't know eventually what is the long term plan ah <mandarin>到底是到几时:dao di shi dao ji shi</mandarin> then everything back to normal like no need mask gathering no restriction you know even with the vaccine err like they say Q three then everyone will have a vaccine ah ready err available


err and then even then not hundred percent mah so I I it's hard to see <mandarin>到底几时会:dao di ji shi hui</mandarin> drawn <mandarin>这个:zhe ge</mandarin> line lah <mandarin>到底:dao di</mandarin> [orh] <mandarin>几时会:ji shi hui</mandarin> everything back to normal but I don't think anyone would want that to make that, decision lor <mandarin>全部都是可能:quan bu dou shi ke neng</mandarin> wait and see wait and see you know actually I thought phase three was like <mandarin>已经有点慢:yi jing you dian man</mandarin> Liao lor <mandarin>对不对你不觉得有点:dui bu dui ni bu jue de you dian</mandarin> like [orh] actually community case actually for


imported mah but, somehow <mandarin>还是没有:hai shi mei you</mandarin> until they they still wait another two weeks ah twenty eight december which I thought was like


ya ya ya


true lah so ya ya so <mandarin>我是觉得好像:wo shi jue de hao xiang</mandarin> actually <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> tighten ya lah that time was urgency <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> tighten immediate effect <mandarin>就是:jiu shi</mandarin> one or two day maybe hor <mandarin>很多:hen duo</mandarin> #kan cheong# <mandarin>就:jiu</mandarin> #kan cheong# spider <mandarin>就真的是:jiu zhen de shi</mandarin> err scramble


but I thought relax actually in my opinion <mandarin>就是:jiu shi</mandarin> actually


ya as in err <mandarin>那些:nei xie</mandarin> gathering religion <mandarin>的可以两百五十个:de ke yi liang bai wu shi ge</mandarin> right err and then most of the things maybe they will start to open up lor like <mandarin>那些:nei xie</mandarin> night spot ah <mandarin>那些东西可能会:nei xie dong xi ke neng hui</mandarin> slowly open up lor so


pre COVID <mandarin>那种那种那种那种日子吧:na zhong na zhong na zhong na zhong ri zi ba</mandarin> provided


ya ya


ya but I think is, I think airborne is quite confirm right and I think they they they initially <mandarin>讲不是:jiang bu shi</mandarin> airborne but, I think with the the fact that <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> mask <mandarin>就可以:jiu ke yi</mandarin> actually prevent <mandarin>这个:zhe ge</mandarin> infection probably suggest otherwise lor so I think mask will be err here to stay for err longer time ah err <mandarin>因为:yin wei</mandarin> I think proven mah <mandarin>好像香港这些:hao xiang xiang gang zhe xie</mandarin> case hor ah they once they relax no mask I think that's where maybe another err problem come back lor


!wah! that's why I think as long as everything we wear mask ah I think the infection rate should be, should be more controllable lah no matter what better than never wear lah right


ya ya, ya, ya


ya ya <mandarin>因为:yin wei</mandarin> <mandarin>老实讲:lao shi jiang</mandarin> lah western world ah they they are, too liberal too democratic ah that they have a lot of those rights issue lah <mandarin>就是人权:jiu shi ren quan</mandarin> lor <mandarin>你看:ni kan</mandarin> the US !wah! you don't wear don't wear is my right to err breathe err you know freely without having to wear a mask is my right


you know and see and see what happen lah so I think the, mindset and the culture is also a very big part lor that's why european US all the western their society is more


you have to be very is like err <mandarin>那种什么那时候不是也是我们这边不是也是有一些:na zhong shen me na shi hou bu shi ye shi wo men zhe bian bu shi ye shi you yi xie</mandarin> err err <mandarin>人:ren</mandarin> during lockdown <mandarin>有:you</mandarin> gathering <mandarin>对不对也是:dui bu dui ye shi</mandarin> they oh shit, they like robertson quay <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> group whah I think Jialat <mandarin>那个很多:na ge hen duo</mandarin> err work permit holder I think <mandarin>全部被:quan bu bei</mandarin> send back <mandarin>了真的是:le zhen de shi</mandarin> then <mandarin>那些什么:nei xie shen me</mandarin> err try to beat the system <mandarin>进来没有:jin lai mei you</mandarin> quarantine <mandarin>那些也是:nei xie ye shi</mandarin> send back what remember the first first few weeks of the lockdown when they catch all these ah <mandarin>就是没有:jiu shi mei you</mandarin> chance <mandarin>了就是:le jiu shi</mandarin> off you go <mandarin>的就是:de jiu shi</mandarin> that I mean there's a reason also why we are able to do it


much more effective than western countries lor so


!aiya!, [orh], oh, ya that one <mandarin>就是:jiu shi</mandarin> another extreme Liao lah you know <mandarin>那个那个:na ge na ge</mandarin> ya


ya but <mandarin>有没有真的是有是这样吗没有人懂:you mei you zhen de shi you shi zhe yang ma mei you ren dong</mandarin> lah you know sometimes is like just err eh but I won't be but <mandarin>老实讲这种:lao shi jiang zhe zhong</mandarin> story I mean I believe also lah <mandarin>老实讲:lao shi jiang</mandarin> if you ask me, you will ask me ha <mandarin>他们是真的是:ta men shi zhen de shi</mandarin> even you <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> bang bang <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> hor <mandarin>死掉:si diao</mandarin> hor


chinese tourists <mandarin>的的一个:de de yi ge</mandarin> err source <mandarin>来的:lai de</mandarin> mah <mandarin>对不对不是讲什么:dui bu dui bu shi jiang shen me</mandarin> lah I mean err err err <mandarin>为什么台湾没有:wei shen me tai wan mei you</mandarin> case that's why <mandarin>每次人家讲:mei ci ren jia jiang</mandarin> eh <mandarin>台湾:tai wan</mandarin> you see they do so well <mandarin>没有:mei you</mandarin> case <mandarin>很少:hen shao</mandarin> control <mandarin>到很好:dao hen hao</mandarin> you know when the rest of the world is in chaos it's also because <mandarin>没有:mei you</mandarin> chinese tourists <mandarin>去台湾旅行:qu tai wan lv xing</mandarin> mah because of the visa problem mah <mandarin>对不对所以:dui bu dui suo yi</mandarin> is is is is different side of the story lah I mean it's err everyone say oh <mandarin>没有人没有人好像你:mei you ren mei you ren hao xiang ni</mandarin> north korea <mandarin>也是没有:ye shi mei you</mandarin> case ah <mandarin>也是:ye shi</mandarin> very good ah actually


ya ya ya, [orh] ya ya, ya


, now I think err most of the so called politicians are taking the lead lah you know like err US


uh I think three of the previous president will take the first batch something like that right they publicised I think obama george bush and bill clinton say they will they will televise you know they them getting vaccinated so err I mean is to boost trust err err confidence in the vaccine lah on one hand but ya I quite like you say lor err if anything Kena they Kena first like our one also our one also I think pinkie and the cabinet also say they will take but whether televised or not no I don't think so lah right whether they really !wah! go to the extreme case one whole line all go and take you know then a televised I don't know whether that do that or not lah


but also <mandarin>老实讲:lao shi jiang</mandarin> also I as a citizen I think also I won't want that lah you know is like we all know that there is some form of risk mah right or not everybody know lah right whether how high is the risk <mandarin>你也不要好像你讲老实讲:ni ye bu yao hao xiang ni jiang lao shi jiang</mandarin> the wise thing to do is it really to vaccine all your front line hundred percent everyone go I don't think


we want to do that also lor <mandarin>因为:yin wei</mandarin> if <mandarin>真的是:zhen de shi</mandarin> Suay Suay <mandarin>有什么:you shen me</mandarin> teething issue or batch problem ah <mandarin>不要讲什么:bu yao jiang shen me</mandarin> I mean, it's like that mah manufacturing is like that when you manufacture small batch ah


to another lor right, ya lah ya


ya,


, ya ya so hopefully we as far as a lot of people will say they go first they go first but we also don't want the system to crumble lah and I mean is not the


the to boost confidence is one thing lah but to also be aware of the risk is another lor so, I hope they also don't hundred percent jump in lor everyone of them if if anything happen also, ya of course got good got bad lah right like you say eh the politician go first they they make a bad decision they suffer lor but then the country if there is no backup plan is also err


it also bring another problem later right so, ya ya ya, so let's see lah I mean it's err still early err first batch only arrived what end of the month right so


err easily next year then we will see something happen lah they still got to plan for it go to where and then I I think the vaccine also is quite hard to handle in terms of the, storage temperature all that hor !wah! also Jialat lor that one I think those selling those err


freezer those err !wah! Dua Dua #tan tan# liao# [loh] that one, #bi tan# already [loh]


ya ya


ya, ya ya


I think they will have a target lah like I think in order to achieve a herd immunity there's a percentage, err for it to be effective I think they will try to hit that, that target lor err that's why I think they don't make it compulsory now but it's the same as the swab test all that mah initially it's all voluntary right then they started to identify who are the high risk one then they make it compulsory for them I'm quite sure they will take the same


approach as well lor err for for for this err err vaccination so, quite sure they have a plan already lah just that they don't want to err they wait and see since the like the trace together token mah initially, everyone relax never go and take then suddenly say want to implement everybody rush right a not and to go and get lah right and and then now err err they have a target how many percent participation certain group like schools or that need that token you know and err


err then from there they will they they they once if we are always like err test out first ah see the response and then if respond no good and they need to boost up ah they will always make it like compulsory one lah I'm quite sure


but err, ya, Bo ah my #potong pasir# haven't distribute yet I err I think they only start the last week of december, so


[orh] you better go and check because now they go by constituency leh not every constituency is the same time leh because initially they open up everyone right everyone can go and collect any time right, then after that I think everybody Chiong mah I think #buay gao# then they make it like area by area got a certain window one leh


which area you stay, Punggol side ah you go and check lor I think you there's a app ah or you go to err search trace together token there's a schedule one so then you key your zip err your postal code ah then they will advise you when is your collection date lor


but of course they say not compulsory lah those that got phone all that they don't need you to go and collect lah but Suay Suay ah this type of thing ah err, U U turn or what ah then or or put it this way lah you go to you go out ah your phone run out of battery then you you don't have


trace together cannot go in !wah! then another problem mah right or not so I think that one day I think can go and get get lah but I also don't know whether that one I heard the battery life also not so good so it doesn't look like they have like a battery compartment where you can change out the battery one leh I think


after don't know how many months ah the battery gone ah and nobody know also mah I don't think there's a light or any indication lor, so I don't know, I don't


ya ya but just inconvenient lor because I I went to watch a movie like last err sunday I went to watch and then you know you you when you use the trace together app right you can actually group check in mah right so you can group check in for your whole family but for cinema ah they don't allow you to group check in leh so


end up ah they expect every individual err err err err audience ah to have their own trace together app, then end up scramble because I always check in for my family one mah I set up everything there ah I just check in for everyone the safe entry lah but end up ah go to the cinema at the door there they say cannot group checck in [orh]


so my wife and my son and end up scramble down there download then, network problem lah cannot download lah then cannot then end up !wah! down there panic the show starting already mah you didn't expect like !wah! got got this kind of err screw up mah right so end up ah !wah! down there a lot of people also Kena so end up one line down there another line one line going the other line was actually all down there scrambling to download the app lah the


the trace together app and and and do the check in lor so, a bit of a err inconvenience lah ah that's why, err I advice like eh if you have your family better go and download and get ready lor also


ya, ya, ya once lor once lor but a lot of the people Kena like caught by surprise lah because I think a lot of them like just thought IC go in can already mah safe entry mah


right then I think the cinema and all that they want the trace together to be active lah going into the cinema, err and the ya lah correct lah is a good, is a good thing to have lor just that err everyone download at the same time also hang lah you know things always like that ah mah


ya ya ya ya ya


yeah, ya ya so, eh IC easier lah ya lah IC easiest lah


actually the ya the token is what mah the token got QR code mah so you can use the QR code to scan also actually on err trace together token so, ya ya there is ah so it's actually like ya a lot of people like eh ya useless lah this thing this thing but I think it is for those err people that have no like data plan one lor like err old folks ah not all have data plan mah correct or not so they don't have data plan and they cannot trace together already what right or not like the kids eh the those err err err younger kids they also don't have phone mah not all have phone mah


so the token is actually actually err quite useful for them lor in that sense, ya, ya ya so better go and check ah if not they suddenly say first jan compulsory I think for school you ah you have kids or married


okay then don't need to worry lah don't need to worry you think they make it compulsory for school kids to have err err next year, so I also pending I don't know now because so near to the err school reopen then my constituency start to distribute ah !wah! hopefully won't have any hiccup lah can collect and then you can bring to school then okay lor if not they if they make it compulsory ah I don't understand why they cannot just


distribute to them in school lor right or not that will be the easier easier way mah go to school the teacher distribute then that's it already right a not but now got to see lah no choice lah


ya, the admin ah, admin lah admin stuff lah


ya ya, correct lor correct lor so let's see lah let's see ya, [orh] so you you stay Punggol lah, !wah! nice area ah now quite err they make they really do up the place ah now


, nothing no no no no nice food lah that's a main complaint I get from my friend also is like they also don't want to like eh meet in Punggol or what ah they rather go somewhere further ah got nice Makan one ah you know err


err ah ya, , ya ya ya


ya all those <mandarin>老字号:lao zi hao</mandarin> mah those there for a few, err maybe over twenty years also have ah some of the hawker there right those the the the the few shops hawker centre you say, err Punggol all these need time to build up lah and then I think a lot of those err high class one mah like alot of err err young hawkers so of course err need need time to catch up on the standard lah for sure you know


my my place also not much lah #potong pasir# okay lah got got some, quite establish lah like the prawn Mee here at the <mandarin>老:lao</mandarin> old jackson there that prawn Mee there quite quite ah ah ah that one the prawn Mee quite ok but also recently like standard drop lah after the COVID I don't know lah maybe the timing lor the I I suppose you eat #hae mee#


you cannot go too early lah because the soup ah like haven't really the flavour haven't go in yet lah or what lah because I always go quite early so maybe I find that the standard actually dropped lor the turtle soup you drink you got you eat turtle soup all these also another one quite nice there ah


oh ya the beef the beef the beef station is it or on the other one the old one ah the old one ah, ya


ya ya, ya ya ya so Punggol Punggol still but then it's nice lah all the waterway that area you know and then you have like all the connector to coney island all that ah !wah! like very


quite quite eh quite nice place to just walk around lor I say my friend all the, walk err hiking all that ah quite quite nice ah I haven't try before but err from the picture it look quite quite quite nice lor quite good lor


ya ya eh but all the old all the the so called the marina that side is is it developed already or you still like err quite err, err like last time quite ulu ulu ah still I I've never been that area for a long time man ah that side


ah,


ah ah, ,


okay okay the #zi char# lah the #zi char#


ah ya lah something different lah right, not not all not err not not always not every #zi char# store got this kind of view mah so , [orh]


, , ya lor ya lor, ya just I think now everyone go hiking lah I see all my friend facebook !wah! hike here hike this guy go hike here this that one go there !walao! I think because err no <mandarin>出:chu</mandarin> now ah all on leave ah clearing leave a lot of people clearing leave mah so


nowhere to go ah just go hiking lor I went Macritchie the other day quite nice also nice walk also,


okay okay


, ya ten months lah !wah! then must be the err midnight you must wake up that kind of thing lah london time one lah


sleep through okay, morning lah


three, eh good afternoon kevin, how's it going, err ya had lunch how about yourself


oh okay so where did you have your #wanton mee#,


oh yes I've been to the #tanjong rhu# #wanton mee# in fact my wife likes it a lot err I personally like the fried Wanton we'll always order an extra set, the one the bomb man


ah ya lah I agree ah this place cannot go hungry one lah can be lazy cannot be hungry ah, yes definitely food mah I mean is like singapore not big why can go just eat only mah eat sleep either


or jogging [orh]


, err yes lah but then again you see ah the contention is to help the tourist site mah F&B


err go where also #bao jiak# one mah but you know lah then you go there the USS the food inside also whack whack hard hard also one mah


, well the situation calls for it mah even though yesterday announced can eight people or what also, but very smart lah they do it after christmas lah so they don't want all that kind of err stupid idiots to go and create all those troubles lah


err certainly I mean certain things we cannot control #lan lan# obey lor, err


ah no lah they say the priority are the healthcare workers and the old people lah so if there is when it comes I will send my parents first lor then after that slowly then myself my wife and all, that kind of thing lah I mean we don't go and jam-packed err Kiasu Kiasi #tam sim# kind of thing lah


not like that mah


err, err let's put it this way lah if it's when it's free right people are more willing to go lah I mean we're very fortunate in this country already to have it free lah


and the old people scared or what I mean is like if don't take the risk is worth is like the doctor always like to say ah lesser of two evils lah you know whenever there's a condition, oh A is like this B is like this but we recommend B because it is


less chance of dying lah is like you know


err it, first, this this batch one as far as this unconfirmed news is ah is, you take one time two weeks later you take another time lah, ya but on the effectiveness of the two months thing that one nobody have the data or what lah so I don't know where you got this from lah but


again is like what if the virus also like mutate into some COVID twenty one kind of thing, that's why maybe two months again unproven fact we we don't what lah because spread fear like that no good lah hor kevin


ya lah mean till then when it comes ah because is like, err protect your family in that context also lah because if you are working outside and all you go out you meet people, I mean it's still safe I mean, just you know take already for peace of mind at least you know you won't bring back the COVID nineteen back into the house also lah


because there's only so much one can do in terms of the safe distancing and such, if not the the virus wouldn't have multiply to begin with mah


workers


ya lah I mean, this kind of thing is the only I mean whatever that is available lah because at times like this I don't think we have much of a choice lor if the worst thing is those scared needle one need to #pa zam# then after that can get the result one Lagi more Jialat right


then is like every two week like drug addict like that lah


critical lah, I mean, that's fair lah I mean because again it's like why they don't make it compulsory because there are definitely all different reasons as well mah, because what if


like I my own fear when I first heard it ah voluntarily is that what you called allergy what are the side effects but again is like a seal for the sake of family is like err or maybe you have a scar so be it lah that kind of thing lah I mean on the greater good lah not say what lah it's just that


again lor back to the same thing lor is like for your brother's case it's a work need if he don't do it he cannot, bring money home then also in a way it's compulsory mah


oh


(mmhmm), correct ah, !wah!


oh dear


ya that's true because this exactly was the case like SARS because back then I was in the armed forces also lah, ah


oh, oh


err ya lah I mean


Keng Keng Keng <mandarin>想想一下:xiang xiang yi xia</mandarin> !wah! <mandarin>你中就是很快:ni zhong jiu shi hen kuai</mandarin> game over <mandarin>了不要玩:le bu yao wan</mandarin> ah

, err the only thing <mandarin>我留下来的是那个:wo liu xia lai de shi na ge</mandarin> combat boots ah, ah <mandarin>穿:chuan</mandarin> Kian Kian ah <mandarin>就是一下子有时候没有钱买:jiu shi yi xia zi you shi hou mei you qian mai</mandarin> doctor martin boots lah <mandarin>就穿那个这样:jiu chuan na ge zhe yang</mandarin> lah


ah <mandarin>是:shi</mandarin> lor <mandarin>就是这样因为那个比那个:jiu shi zhe yang yin wei na ge bi na ge</mandarin> gore-tex <mandarin>的好:de hao</mandarin> lah for some reason lah


(uh huh)


!aiya! but the <mandarin>你们:ni men</mandarin> even <mandarin>在:zai</mandarin> air force <mandarin>也是有:ye shi you</mandarin> e-mart <mandarin>可以买那些:ke yi mai nei xie</mandarin> boots <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> mah, oh


but <mandarin>你是买那个:ni shi mai na ge</mandarin> safety boots mah


budget [bah]


err <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> reservist <mandarin>那边就比较:na bian jiu bi jiao</mandarin> #ge yan# lah, ah #yi mai kai# <mandarin>就是不懂买多少个:jiu shi bu dong mai duo shao ge</mandarin> lah till <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> stop <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> limit lah because <mandarin>他:ta</mandarin> load <mandarin>到整辆车都是:dao zheng liang che dou shi</mandarin> toilet paper lah


ah <mandarin>你最:ni zui</mandarin> #sai pang# meh Liao eh leh,


!aiya! <mandarin>就是这样:jiu shi zhe yang</mandarin> lah but <mandarin>个人个人的:ge ren ge ren de</mandarin> lah <mandarin>有那个:you na ge</mandarin> rights to <mandarin>用就用:yong jiu yong</mandarin> lor <mandarin>看他们买什么这样:kan ta men mai shen me zhe yang</mandarin> lor


eh <mandarin>又:you</mandarin> Nua Liao lor, !aiya! <mandarin>是这样:shi zhe yang</mandarin> lah


ya lor


ya lah because you think <mandarin>你看:ni kan</mandarin> ah err <mandarin>啊公这边的:a gong zhe bian de</mandarin> strategy <mandarin>就已经是讲说到明年:jiu yi jing shi jiang shuo dao ming nian</mandarin> third quarter <mandarin>才有:cai you</mandarin> vaccine <mandarin>这个也是没有办法:zhe ge ye shi mei you ban fa</mandarin> lah because is like <mandarin>全世界的人都抢着要:quan shi jie de ren dou qiang zhe yao</mandarin> mah <mandarin>我们已经有:wo men yi jing you</mandarin> free Liao <mandarin>又是那个:you shi na ge</mandarin> topic lah but again


I mean err <mandarin>我们能做的就是这种八个人:wo men neng zuo de jiu shi zhe zhong ba ge ren</mandarin> gathering, at least


in in a certain way <mandarin>就是说:jiu shi shuo</mandarin> oh <mandarin>这个家庭来多少个红包:zhe ge jia ting lai duo shao ge hong bao</mandarin> standby <mandarin>什么什么就不会忘记什么:shen me shen me jiu bu hui wang ji shen me</mandarin> lah


err I think pinkie is nice enough to give us that that room to prepare and you know it's like for us to react okay after their what will happen but basically like it'll be a norm lor so


everywhere will still be mask


is yes in its way lah because again what I feel is that we cannot predict what is happening but we have already been adapting to this new norm, but even if let's say for example COVID twenty one comes again


we are already so used to it and we probably are very experience to know what to do lor so, come what may lah #kong pai tia dan bo# lah, eh Xiong Suay #long zhong si# lor airborne then everything mask also cannot help them game over lor everybody game over lor


(mmhmm)


it has been proven effective mah else we won't be in phase three to begin with mah, ya I mean is like looking at now suddenly germany go back into lockdown, when err I mean it's like we are moving on to phase three germany locked down oh okay


then suddenly like eh we are doing much better


(ppc)


it's, I


asia mah asia extreme lor, but, , the kind of story lah,


ah , so lah , ah <mandarin>欠钱:qian qian</mandarin> ah


ya lah <mandarin>这个只是我们讲的是:zhe ge zhi shi wo men jiang de shi</mandarin> extreme end lah <mandarin>也是没有根据:ye shi mei you gen ju</mandarin> lah because if you ask me <mandarin>也是是说越南也是搞得很好:ye shi shi shuo yue nan ye shi gao de hen hao</mandarin> mah <mandarin>也是因为他们:ye shi yin wei ta men</mandarin> control <mandarin>的好:de hao</mandarin> mah <mandarin>算到来越南比我们:suan dao lai yue nan bi wo men</mandarin> so called <mandarin>穷:qiong</mandarin> but yet again <mandarin>他们的那边:ta men de na bian</mandarin> the case


we <mandarin>是:shi</mandarin> globally recognised as one of the better handled managed case lor


so, but they go into a lockdown is I think they also know that this is the only way to suppress lor because, there's only so much you can do lah but as the internet would joke ah, err if the vaccine should have any side effect let the politician all die first lah if they all die then the country safe lor


ya lor that means if they didn't die and what that means the vaccine is safe or <mandarin>就是这样的笑话:jiu shi zhe yang de xiao hua</mandarin> lah


, , confidence in the public ah


!aiya! no need so drama one, (mmhmm)


definitely


that's true because for this kind of thing I mean certainly there is all the #ting tang# and risk calculator taking place lah


cause I I mean during the lockdown a bit #bo liao# go and see some youTube video, is like in the case of the whole government down and everything ah, the first thing that the


the backup plan ah is to bring back the tax structure first, within twenty four hour let's say the whole government or whatsoever is destroyed ah the tax structure will come back first, some kind of funny thing that they do lah in the case of nuclear or what ah tax come first


you mean the world priority


ya lah because cannot be we displease then after that, not good lah you know


, I think all this I think we don't need to worry let the people who manage all the #tan lui# part, #gao tim# also lah because, is like you want to provide you will definitely plan of all the infrastructure


and everything and the distribution all these things the hospital are very, experience to begin with mah then they were just probably, err hire some non critical role to do the management ah because it's not like queueing up for hello kitty mah


because we cannot allow large crowd to happen just because we need so call this vaccine you will still have to be properly guide and all lah I don't want to be sounding or pro government yet but we need to do what is humanly right also lor


because the sentiment is that people, don't want to die but yet again also is like we also don't want other people to suffer as well lah so have to decency my my take lah no trying to sound holy or what lor


still it's err, let let the hospital do what they will need to do let the medical workers the distribution channel the medicine people, do their thing as for us just wait when it's time then okay err chill out with their family


then just go I mean do what we need to do and keep the place safe lah if not if imagine is always this kind of thing this kind of hero ah Mai lah Mai lah don't want lah <mandarin>不要不要不要:bu yao bu yao bu yao</mandarin> and then end up the #suay suay# one is, Tio then #long zong# Tio then !wah! game over back to square one we don't want that lor hor


err had had, eh check with you ah have you taken your token already, oh because I also haven't collect ah


oh, err I stay Punggol side


ya lah, later Chut U turn ah


I mean certain, my my take is that one is less issue lah because it's like, cannot be so Suay my phone battery die then the token also battery die then you don't accept my IC then I cannot take bus that kind of nonsense lah because still is there is some leeway I believe lah because we're still human lah you know


oh, (mmhmm)


(mmhmm)


, I mean it happen once ah once it's over then everything all set lah, cause


just to be safe also lah, like I mean definitely because it's like err if you ask me also it's like I go to shopping centre


want to trace together then the network cannot, this cannot that, so that's where a bit inconvenient lah then I just use the singpass log in lor, some sometime also funny ah is like, trace together cannot singpass can if not singpass cannot trace together can


then fed up also just use the IC but that that is provided the place, provided the place have lah


I haven't received so not so sure, (ppc)


that's fair enough, ya, err my kid is err ten months only lah


, oh okay


don't don't worry lah I mean the main thing is still, for singaporeans, the education is there I mean the main thing is to provide an education is not to have the token ah so nonetheless these are just the little inconvenience just have to brave through lor


ya lor because I mean teachers also quite poor thing already lah cause is like throughout this whole COVID thing, don't know this don't know that suddenly all home based learning and everything there is so much more inconvenience for them as well mah


ya but nonetheless it's like this token thing, how hard can it be , ya just, ah yes that's correct


the place is nice but the food is really horrible , oh


yes yes because err really if you ask me honestly ah old estate food unbeatable, it's like I stay in Punggol I will always go to Hougang to go and eat instead the Kovan market lah err Hougang central lah anytime the food variety is much better than


how this new housing estate is plan lah,


ya lah I mean again


ya lah but, err #hoa nam# #hoa nam#


I, what I like about that area is err the beef noodle, the, the old old one lah but err sell out very fast quite fast also lah


I like that stall also err the, ya lah that mean #potong pasir# is people will always go to the jackson for all the supper food and such ah but the prawn noodle is good lah


hi this is good ah because for myself err, during COVID I pick up err exercising also lah in a way in a good thing lah so, err got myself to just run around my neighborhood the PCN and such indeed all the nice thing said about Punggol is good lah I mean all the waterway and all


then run to coney island, although it's not a very long distance but still is like !hey! better than last time eighties all the Kampung days err cannot do anything play marble that kind


oh Punggol marina during COVID it was a lot of places were close lah I mean all the drinking places lah now all opening up till ten thirty lor, and if I wouldn't use the word Ulu but it's better than before because if you tell me this way right is like there was a time like this place want to die die don't want to die one right


ah now okay because err in fact I go there to eat the #zi char# the #dai loh#, err the #zi char# is good the #lok lok# can forget it, ya because the #zi char# at least if you ask me around the whole Punggol


this is one of the better one, and then you have ya because you have the #zui di# view mah you can see the ocean while you eat then about six dollars a bit pricier than normal #zi char# but you get a seaview and all you sit down there #shiok shiok# eat like that #wu hua# leh


ya cause, ya lor, so if you want you come I think that place ya err very lively still


err then if you really want to get out cannot travel overseas mah can travel take their whatever boat or what, go and hire a boat man I think now the sea activity can go cruise or something lah


at least <mandarin>出海:chu hai</mandarin> go and dive around the water around here also better mah


ya cause err Macritchie in fact my company every friday will go there for exercise lah, but they do it a bit early so I didn't go lah , ya so they will always go and do the trail running there but I did went with my family though err bring my kid and all we just go there to hike around the the smaller radius lah because I think there is that


watch tower which is renovation until don't know when ah, so we only, manage to take a short hike lah because, err my baby still baby lah so must carry all the way lah so


, I'm quite fortunate because the baby tend to sleep through kind of like, ya so is like err last feed, err <mandarin>到:dao</mandarin> Gao whack whack already then after that


exhaust (err) exhaust exhaust her until [what] [ah] then sleep want sleep only then is just ya all the way try to morning [lor]


and three two one, dude there's a delay you know, okay fair enough


err today I went to NTU I was in NTU I went to meet my professor for a while, alright to clean up some things I managed to get a uh an official an official NTU virtual background


ya ya ya ya ya, actually actually it's not it's not even it's it's not even an FYP presentation, it's like on top of my ya, because because I'm like ya, then she's on the ball so like, like ya so so this one is like I'm representing NTU kind of thing so


thanks man thanks thanks got to flex it got to flex it ya so, uh I think so I think so I manage to I manage to


no dude you know you know she was waiting I came home late so it's like I was like ten minutes late for my meeting because my Grab driver ya ya ya I, ya it was like ten minute waiting time and then like, err like I came home then like err I showered and all that then I did I did actually I didn't shower I just went in I changed my shirt and then like I sat down for the interview


ya, ya then after that, no no okay ya so then after that after today right after I when I met my professor then I uh did my I did an interview because I'm doing like a part time internship kind of thing next semester


oh no yesterday's call was like a over a like a for a different different one dude ya ya ya ya, <tamil>இல்ல இல்ல:illa illa</tamil> applications leh <tamil>அன்னைக்கே அனுப்பிட்டேன்:annaikkae anuppittaen</tamil> so like you know you got to like, at every other day ya


ya I know you know do you know what's the most frustrating thing you know what's the most frustrating thing right up till now I've been applying for jobs for like for like a while now for so for like, err maybe maybe like what err this whole semester I've been applying jobs until now I have not spoken to a real human being


like it's only recently I started talking to like real people before this it's all like like video interviews and all that rubbish, so you talk to ya you just record your video and upload it ya so, a human being no ya so this is the first time I'm like I'm legitimately seeing someone ya I know so anyway


ya and plus you know it the worst thing about that is that you only so when you when you when you're expected to record a video you only get one minute to record any kind of video, so your what your response has to be recorded in one minute you have like a one minute window to to say everything that you wanna say so if if if it's like a


okay no thirty minute thirty second buffer time followed by a one minute recording time, so you have to get all your all your err thoughts out like concisely within within the one minute so


ya I guess I guess but like still it's like it's it's I how do I say this is like a err like you know you know in in like in real life conversations you don't even you have like awkward pauses and all that like, like you understand but then like in a video when you have one minute so it's a fixed time so like


so like, like <tamil>அதுக்குள்ள முடிக்காட்டினா:adhukulla mudikkaatinaa</tamil> then it's gonna be a problem you know you know what I mean, ya so ya, ya what were you up to today


no okay okay ya ya can ya ya <tamil>என்ன சொல்லிக்கிட்ருந்த:enna sollikkittiruntha</tamil> ya


hello


I don't know whether it's mine or yours ya


oh,


okay


ya ya,


ya ya


okay, okay (uh huh)


wait so so whole time the girl doesn't is not aware of this whole thing happening


ya ya ya oh my god


can see


that's his job, as in he takes he takes up these jobs ya he takes up these jobs to do weird weird like torturing and all this kind of things yo that is so creepy


oh okay it's it's not it's not super long lah it's a it's a like what one one and a half


no what what is it ah


okay okay that that that's quite descriptive, so you just so you just search is it


but but <tamil>புது:puthu</tamil> movie <tamil>வந்துச்சுனா:vandhuchunaa</tamil> what what does it load itself


I see okay okay no you get you get cut off once in a while ya there's a delay ya ya ya okay okay


right right right, unfriended right you were saying was it


but it's different characters right, ya, similar ya okay okay but it's like similar what do you call that similar like the the premise is all similar


eh but but I think I think they they do a lot of it they they film in like I mean just the screen itself that means the the video itself they record first and then the all the tabs and all that I think they do it in post you know, like editing lah <tamil>பண்ணுவாங்க:pannuvaanga</tamil> ya


eh


it's very realistic, , !aiyo! actually I rather you don't tell me I wanna go PL


ya that's why, eh but virtual backgrounds are quite tentative you know


ya ya see <tamil>உன் கையும்:un kaiyum</tamil> like disappeared <tamil>ஆச்சு:aachu</tamil> when you did this your hand just disappeared ya, see ya, like does it matter like the like is it okay for this recording to be on Zoom


oh just a conversation ah okay we out from what they'll they'll put it together


oh is it okay okay so its easier for them lah later ya right right okay,


wait you all share the same room is it, oh [orh] is this your oh ya okay this is your virtual background


no I had a I had a virtual background if they let me show you my virtual background just now like, how do I choose a virtual background ah let me add


no no no okay check it out, ya wait is it is it flipped for you, is it is it flipped or normal like does it look normal for you


okay it looks like NTU right or is it does it look flipped because on my on my side it looks flipped you know like uh it's UTN for me ya, correct for my side if I like this leh is it


it's still fine !wah! okay, okay okay so this is this what I'm gonna use for friday this is this is I'm ya professor told me ya


the sponsors right all the brands and sponsors, I think I think it's it's I think it's meant to like not distract because like ya like if you put a big big logo like <tamil>எல்லோரும் வந்துஅங்கதான்பார்ப்பாங்க:ellorum vandhu angathan parpanga</tamil> they won't look at you ya ya


ya ya ya correct correct correct <tamil>அதான்:adhaan</tamil> it so so so right now my plan right my plan is to you know have my script on my screen and then just ya


just reading off slides right


proper presentation right ya, both both sides right like we we experienced both sides ya ya ya but I don't know


I I guess ya but like the don't you feel still feel bit stressed when you do presentation so it's like you don't know whether you're sharing the correct screen or whatever


(hmm) I feel like it's err I don't know depends depends like you should have had enough practice to to prevent these things from happening so like the fact that even these things come up it's like


it it shows it shows that like you're not ready , if okay if it's if it's like a server issue or something then it's okay but then like if it's like a like your laptop you don't know lah you don't know what you're pressing then, then it's like that that one's on you man ya, ya ya ya


okay okay ya ya ya correct correct correct, ya


wait so where do you look where <tamil>எங்க பார்த்த:enga paarthaa</tamil> like when you presenting, isn't that more scary like when I see my face then I'll be like oh shit okay I got something this one I got that problem like oh no like ya ya


okay okay, positive reinforcement right, right right ya ya ya but like you know when I when I present I don't want to see my own face because like I see I see like my own my own err expressions and all that and then like the oh shit I never I never like trip my beard today and I'm like oh my hair is like messy ya and then like


why no it it's like the it's it's a thing dude it's like it's like people always hate the sound of their own voices, no dude you sound fine like literally no no no seriously you you sound fine but what


dude I I didn't even listen back to my my own voice I don't like listening to my own voice it it's ya


but what what kind of settings what kind of settings do you change,


oh right right right oh okay okay, I see I see, ya eh but my aircon is on you know shouldn't it should be okay right


oh is it, I think I think it should be fine because like it's generally quiet let me let me hear, ya it's just like a it's just like a mild hum dude you couldn't even hear me like for like half the half the time I was talking to you the first part you don't even like on your on your microphone

oh okay okay okay because that that what's uh like more even now right ya ya ya ya

I I think you made the right choice man I think you made the right choice ya


exactly yes, you wouldn't have met any of us, you wouldn't have met you ya, or is it our gain you never know, you'll never know


no I'm kidding I'm kidding ya ya oh man dude it's so it's so crazy because like like you know what you know it's like those small small decisions you make can like completely change your life


ya oh man


right right ya ya ya butterfly effect exactly ya so you know you know my my sister my sister was telling me a story because she's in NIE now right one of her professors, yes I talk to my twin sister yes we both have conversations, sometimes we see each other


that you know one of her professors I think came from the UK or something right, and then err so this this is like he was he was in the UK and then he was doing his master's I think his master's or his undergraduate study or something like that and then he was doing a study on like err asian cultures


and like one of the things that he he he he did his research on his PHD not PHD maybe his I don't know I think it's a undergraduate thing, his undergraduate thing was on like the singlish in singapore, so the singlish culture ya singlish thing in singapore and then uh he read a book so by one of uh singaporean authors


uh about singlish so err like like one of these uh so his family right like so then after all of that then he was like he he he submitted his study everything he passed and then I think during his term break err his family actually wanted to go to uh on holiday to like hong kong


okay so then on the way to hong kong hong kong <tamil>வழில வந்து வந்து அவங்க:valila vandhu vandhu avanga</tamil> let's drop by singapore <tamil>சொல்லிட்டு அவங்க இங்க வந்தாங்க:sollittu avanga inga vandhaanga</tamil> so they came to singapore for holiday so for a few days lah so <tamil>அங்க இங்க வந்தப்போ:anga inga vandhappo</tamil> he said oh you know what since I'm here I'll get in touch I'll get in touch with that that professor <tamil>அப்புறமா சொன்னாரு:appuramaa sonnaaru</tamil> so he got in touch with the the guy who wrote the book and they set up a meeting they met for like they met for like coffee or something


and then like the that that that singaporean professor who who did the study actually told him eh you know if let's say you're interested you can do your further studies here I've I've a position I've an opening in one of my one of my courses like not not as as one of my like PHD student PHD or I think master student or something like that you can come and do it I can offer you a scholarship


so so this guy is on holiday and then he said okay sure you know what I'll take it up and just because of that right he he moved his life to singapore and then he started to he did his PHD everything here he moved his entire life to singapore he's now a singapore citizen and like he he's teaching in NIE and like he said that all of that happened ya all of that happened because his parents decided to like take a detour to singapore and he decide to like hit up that guy so like you know that


ya ya so like that just that one small decision that you made like it completely like changed his whole life ya it's so crazy to think about ya


right right, eh ya, but <tamil>நான் அந்த:naan andha</tamil> students <tamil>கு எப்படி தெரியும்:ku eppadi theriyum</tamil> like she's gonna lay over in singapore for like three hours

it's yours it's always your fault, of course, then <tamil>அவன் அதுக்குள்ள போய் பார்த்தான்:avan adhukulla poi paarthaan</tamil> like <tamil>நிறைய:niraya</tamil> friends <tamil>அவனோட:avanoda</tamil> friends <tamil>அவனுக்கு:avanukku</tamil> Facebook message <tamil>பண்ணிட்டே இருந்தாங்க:pannittae irunthaanga</tamil> then he just read everything but


ya then after that <tamil>அவங்க:avanga</tamil> friends' group <tamil>வந்து ஒரு பையன்:vandhu oru paiyan</tamil> is like very tech savvy lah he knows how to hack stuff and everything


then <tamil>அந்த:andha</tamil> app ah test <tamil>பண்ணான்:pannaan</tamil> because I don't know the girlfriend is deaf so that's like why he made the whole app ya to like he wanted to communicate with his girlfriend I mean <tamil>அவன் போய்:avan poi</tamil> sign languages <tamil>கத்துருக்கலாம்:kathurukkalaam</tamil> but I guess he just you know what I'll just make a app so ya so he was testing it with his girlfriend like it was a surprise ya so he was trying to use that app <tamil>அப்புறம்:appuram</tamil> Spotify <tamil>எல்லாம்:ellaam</tamil> it keep crashing like they keep saying like oh it unexpectedly crashed


so he no <tamil>அப்டினா:apdinaa</tamil> maybe storage <tamil>ரொம்ப பெருசா இருக்கு:romba perusaa irukku</tamil> like <tamil>நிறைய:niraiya</tamil> he ask the tech savvy the hacker dude how to check for storage then he told him and then he check then he found out there's there was one like hidden folder that took up so much space


like ninety nine percent of the Macbook's page space was by this hidden folder <tamil>ஆனா:aanaa</tamil> hidden folder na like <tamil>அவன் அந்த:avan andha</tamil> password <tamil>இல்லாம:illaama</tamil> he cannot access because he don't know, then <tamil>அந்த:andha</tamil> hacker like the hacker friend told him how to hack that hidden folder so he found out then on the hidden folder <tamil>உள்ள:ulla</tamil> so many weird weird videos dude okay so actually <tamil>அவங்க:avanga</tamil> videos <tamil>காட்டுனப்ப:kaattunappa</tamil> it's like quite normal videos like people dancing and stuff but <tamil>அதோட:adhoda</tamil> angle <tamil>வந்து:vandhu</tamil> it's like your webcam angle so imagine I'm like skyping you now then someone like recording me like with this webcam ya


like the back this webcam <tamil>அந்த மாதிரி ஒரு:andha maadhiri oru</tamil> angle then <tamil>அந்த:andha</tamil> clips lah it was quite normal like someone dancing someone walking like that, but then he <tamil>அவன் அவ்ளோ:avan avlo</tamil> then he just left it like as a joke lah then <tamil>பார்க்கல சும்மா விட்டுட்டான்:paarkkala summa vituttaan</tamil> you know he remember he was locked into the owners Facebook account


then he got a message from this girl and then the girl was like uh you stole my laptop like give it back and then he was like


so he was like, you are erica you're not him like different name <tamil>அப்புறம் அவன் சொல்லுவான் இல்ல:apuram avan solluvaan illa</tamil> erica <tamil>என்னோட:ennoda</tamil> friend <tamil>நான் அவளோட:naan avaloda</tamil> Facebook leh <tamil>இருந்து:irunthu</tamil> account <tamil>கு:ku</tamil> message <tamil>பண்றேன்:pandraen</tamil> so you better return the laptop, then I <tamil>அவன் வந்து:avan vandhu</tamil> like <tamil>பொய் சொல்லுவான் இல்ல நான் வந்து:poi solluvaan illa naan vandhu</tamil> stole steal <tamil>பண்ணல:pannala</tamil> I bought this online someone like put this online so he must be the thief <tamil>அப்புறம் அவன் சொல்லுவான்:appuram avan solluvaan</tamil> oh <tamil>நீ அந்த:nee andha</tamil> link <tamil>வந்து அனுப்பு:vandhu anuppu</tamil> that you saw it online you better send the link


then he didn't want to like then he was like oh of course <tamil>அவனோட குட்டு வெளிபட்டுடுச்சு:avanoda kuttu velipattuduchu</tamil> you know like he cannot, ya lie anymore then he will say sorry I stole it ya so he'll say you better return back then he was going to return back he was like okay <tamil>நான் எடுத்த இடத்துலயே வச்சிடறேன் நீ எடுத்துக்கோ:naan edutha idathulayae vachidraen nee eduthukko</tamil> to go he was going to return it back but then be right before he return back because the hacker friend gave him like that's when he found the hidden folder when he told the guy he was gonna return it back


then after that he found the hidden folder then he wanted to sus out more then he found this bitcoin account like then he opened this terminal that he got to chat with the like this random person and the person was like oh I've sent you money is it enough can you do like whatever so it's almost like that other guy was ordering something from the owner of the laptop


but the guy doesn't know the guy who stole it don't know what it is but he just continued chatting because he wanted to know like it's just everything about the laptop was quite shady lah so he just wanted to know, then he found out that the owner of the laptop had a bitcoin account and the dude that said I send you some money sent him ten million dollars


so then he became even more suspicious then he didn't want to give the laptop, so he started acting like the owner of the laptop to try and sus out more stuff, then this is where it gets so creepy because he was like on video call with his girlfriend and his friends right like he keep face timing his deaf girlfriend then halfway when he was like facetiming his deaf girlfriend suddenly there was someone in the room like in the in the girlfriend's room so he saw it via call but she's deaf so she cannot see and the person is wearing like a black hoodie so


the hoodie I think got like infrared rays or something so he cannot see who it is because like it glitches on the screen but it you can see got someone there so, then uh <tamil>அந்த:andha</tamil> deaf girl ku <tamil>கு வந்து ஒரு:ku vandhu oru</tamil> roommate <tamil>இருக்கும் அந்த:irukkum andha</tamil> roommate <tamil>வந்து அந்த:vandhu andha</tamil> hoodie guy <tamil>கொன்றுவான் அந்த:kondruvaan andha</tamil> camera lah so the deaf girl goes to shower so and she cannot hear anything what so she went to shower


ya she's not so she ya she was in the shower then the roommate can hear so this guy was like oh like he was waiting for her to shower and come back lah then he was talking to the roommate and out of nowhere <tamil>பின்னாடி ஒருத்தன் வந்து அப்டியே கொன்னுட்டான்:pinnaadi oruthan vandhu apdiyae konnuttaan</tamil> like he saw it live through the video call and then he was like oh my god then that guy


then that guy message him like using the girlfriend's phone and then telling like him like he used vanishing messages like he was text him using the girlfriend's phone but then he will like delete it before the deaf girl can see, so he was like oh return the laptop like I know you're going to return it then he started sharing screen of what the stolen guy's was seeing


so the hoodie guy hacked into the his own laptop <tamil>அவனுக்கு தெரியும் இப்ப:avanukku theriyum ippo</tamil> for example <tamil>நான் என்:naan en</tamil> computer leh <tamil>இப்ப என்ன செய்றேன்னு:ippa enna seiraenu</tamil> hacker <tamil>கு:ku</tamil> he get like livestream ya, so he tell him like I know exactly what you are doing <tamil>அவனுக்கு தெரிஞ்சிச்சு அந்த:avanukku therinjichu andha</tamil> bitcoin ah <tamil>அவன் வந்து:avan vandhu</tamil> hack <tamil>பண்ணது:pannathu</tamil> he knows what he's doing then he was like <tamil>உன்னோட மத்த ஆறு:unnoda matha aaru</tamil> friends <tamil>ஏனா இவன் அதுக்குள்ள அவனோட ஆறு:yaenaa ivan adhukulla avanoda aaru</tamil> friends <tamil>கிட்ட சொல்லிருப்பான்:kitta solliruppaan</tamil> he found really shady things


he would have told his other like six friends on the video call that like oh this laptop is so shady like I actually stole it and everything so everyone knows what's happening like he even shared his screen so everyone seeing the shady stuff, then after that he <tamil>இப்போ எல்லோருக்கும் தெரிஞ்சதால:ippo ellorukkum therinjathaala</tamil> the hoodie guy was like you better not let anyone disconnect from the call and you don't tell anyone like is you like got into this ah like you will get into parole if not I'll kill your girlfriend


, so the reason why like it became so serious was because you remember the hidden video folder one of the videos showed a girl like in her bedroom then the this hoodie guy went there and then he like touched her then he looked up at the camera


so then the video stops there's only twenty MB then everyone was like oh my god then one girl in the friend circle she went to find out who that girl on the bed was it was a girl that went missing two days ago, so basically what this guy does is that on the dog on the dark web people will give him orders like oh this person can you like torture them like this I'll pay you for that so that's his job to torture the person


ya to torture the person, ya exactly so but at first they don't know then they when they figured it out then they realised but by the time almost all the six friends were like this is so shady
