I would lah but, you have to know leh if it's east side they start school at seven then what time must they wake up, ideally somewhere nearer would be better I don't know I don't know I'm kind of on the fence, regarding what school they should go


you need three years leh to do volunteer work can you imagine three years leh to volunteer in the school


#jiak ka ba#, ya lah it's not lah


oh ya just now just now I met up with ray and jean, ya, then they just bought an apartment at Bishan


!wah! <mandarin>你们这个时候买:ni men zhe ge shi hou mai</mandarin> apartment <mandarin>你们不会怕:ni men bu hui pa</mandarin> meh what if, what if like the economy will take a longer time to pick up then some more they bought private apartment so it's like right in the central <mandarin>在:zai</mandarin> Bishan then <mandarin>在对面而已:zai dui mian er yi</mandarin> opposite Bishan station I think they also wanna lock in a good school for their kid next time


!wah! !choy!, ya jean <mandarin>也是讲她不可以他不可以:ye shi jiang ta bu ke yi ta bu ke yi</mandarin> quit then <mandarin>他现在有时候还打两份工作:ta xian zai you shi hou hai da liang fen gong zuo</mandarin> like she's still doing the private attendant thing for the private jets and then sometimes she do her her current workplace


then I ask ah !wah! every month still got to fork out thousand two cash, then but I thought the amount that they pay a bit too good to be true though, MRT <mandarin>对面又是:dui mian you shi</mandarin> three bedder <mandarin>蛮大的他们才还:man da de ta men cai hai</mandarin> one point one point two million eh


or one point three, a bit too good to be true right

!wah! irritating eh seriously <mandarin>改次我们搬家什么最好不要讲:gai ci wo men ban jia shen me zui hao bu yao jiang</mandarin> because you know a lot of people got shit things to say

, oh but <mandarin>真的:zhen de</mandarin> leh <mandarin>现在:xian zai</mandarin> hor like I keep seeing a lot of girls then with the mask on they all look damn Chio, then after that when they remove their masks when they drink water right they are completely not what I expect them to look like

!aiya!


ah


that's true lah, !wah! but ray <mandarin>真的:zhen de</mandarin> , hardly see any guys without, like a circle of friends because you know men being men they need to have like their own


how do I say, like need to have a social life like you need your own brotherhood to not be reminded about wife and kids


usually girls can be more reserved they can stay home do their own things but I hardly come across guys who hardly have their own circle of friends besides family


that's true lah


!chey!, I don't know I don't drive so I don't know how it works, but !aiya!


!huh! he won ah, he <mandarin>入围:ru wei</mandarin> only lah <mandarin>他赢了:ta ying le</mandarin> meh

!aiya! <mandarin>这种事我们看不到的那种台上一分钟台下十年功:zhe zhong shi wo men kan bu dao de na zhong tai shang yi fen zhong tai xia shi nian gong</mandarin> cannot see one really apparently right when I watch those behind the scenes


the kind of details that they go into just to perfect that one shot that is only like thirty seconds long, but they take hours to film one leh !wah! it's crazy


no lah not just records of youth lah in general a lot of movies are like that it's just that we cannot see it lah because we're not in the industry,


, ya then sometimes the director will make you do multiple takes on different how to say different scenes so they can


edit and make the best effect like which one best suit, so !wah! <mandarin>真的:zhen de</mandarin> leh how you gonna if it's a crying scene


hor


then I feel validated, ya


Pui lor <mandarin>老头花:lao tou hua</mandarin> all these <mandarin>老:lao</mandarin> uncle wear mask also can !walao! seriously seriously really, #bo wei gong#


but it's okay I feel very validated, !huh!

then <mandarin>他大摇大摆地从这门进还跟我讲他没走:ta da yao da bai de cong zhe men jin hai gen wo jiang ta mei zou</mandarin> security


!aiya! <mandarin>没有话讲算了不关我的事:mei you hua jiang suan le bu guan wo de shi</mandarin> I probably won't see her again, she's not from this outlet mah she's from another outlet


she's she is here just to fill in the, the girl who is on leave mah


four of us, three lor three other girls,


can save the money just save lah I mean you already make up the decision don't come and ask me about <mandarin>哪一个:na yi ge</mandarin> ring <mandarin>好哪一个比较好这个好那个好:hao na yi ge bi jiao hao zhe ge hao na ge hao</mandarin> !wah! <mandarin>很烦的:hen fan de</mandarin> leh


to congratulate on her wedding, I don't know like a wedding gift or something what do you think

like K because the bathrobe I always wear bathrobe overseas one because very thick then after I put on I don't feel so cold then you step out immediately !walao! ten degree celsius


but in singapore !walao! <mandarin>人家冲冷水出来才脱光光:ren jia chong leng shui chu lai cai tuo guang guang</mandarin> eh

yes ya ya, no no no that was the the very first her first, her first business then I think after that too hectic for her then she switched to to selling #lor mee# lah


then it was like !wah! every day I think almost everyday without fail are just walk across just across my my house, just a stone's throw away, then <mandarin>就去买她的:jiu qu mai ta de</mandarin> #lor mee# lah


also like most of people I think that was the first time, someone actually sell sold #lor mee# you know, so it's like ah, ya lor during my time lah in the eighties so it's like !wow! it's like so so nice lor the the aunty so talented she made her own

ya ya ya


the the the taste, ya lor cannot get the exact taste lor


ya charcoal, I think ya I think is, ya lah is is the the the <mandarin>面:mian</mandarin> itself uh then it's like <mandarin>从前他们比较:cong qian ta men bi jiao</mandarin> not so health conscious lor so it's like last time they rely a lot of on those <mandarin>猪油啦:zhu you la</mandarin> which make the the the the bowl of #wanton mee# or whatever


tastes tastes tastes better lor, ya <mandarin>猪油:zhu you</mandarin> ya right


back then not so not so common [bah] maybe they just use sugar or what, ya ya ya


you know just very simple dish fried <mandarin>豆干:dou gan</mandarin> it's just fried <mandarin>豆干:dou gan</mandarin> then then he just just ah deep fried the <mandarin>豆干:dou gan</mandarin> on the spot, okay actually


so simple so ordinary right, ah but the thing is


the the the chilli sauce that he made, !wah! is the bomb lor


ya lor we also eat we also eat that almost ya lor almost everyday lor whenever he's there lah we we will definitely go and buy, ya


ya lor this is, ya lor ya lor, ah, dying trade lah but but maybe now the the closest one is those the closest to this kind of <mandarin>豆干:dou gan</mandarin> is


the <mandarin>炸:zha</mandarin> #ngoh hiang# lor, that's the closest closer dish that can you can find ya <mandarin>炸:zha</mandarin> #ngoh hiang# but then uh they added other ingredients lah not only <mandarin>豆干:dou gan</mandarin> got #ngoh hiang# fishball the prawn fritters


and sometimes even chicken wings, and also the chilli lah also !aiya! <mandarin>炒米粉:chao mi fen</mandarin> ya and go and go and goes quite well with <mandarin>米粉:mi fen</mandarin> also, so even indian Rojak also quite similar you know


ya indian Rojak they also have all this all this <mandarin>炸:zha</mandarin> one


why you miss, centre point


centre point eh, (uh huh), [orh] okay okay Samoa lah, Samoa Sanmuwa


closed down already lah, it's opened by indonesian lah I think indonesian chinese is a actually family business


ah okay


ya they they rarely served, uh authentic one lor their dishes and is like ya I think it's really cooked by indonesia's chef lah ah ya it was it was


it was a cook er it was always very long queue lor very very good business,


rice table lor, or they will you say you want to go and try the that that the one in Tanglin one, or there's one in paragon also I remember last time grandma

eh but that day we went because, or maybe it's not that level, ah


ya, fine dining, [orh], you mean, ah okay oh ya ya ya ya


ah ah like homemade one lah, ah ah, ya, I think err I like their I think they also got #ngoh hiang# right

[orh] the trace together one lah but I don't know I don't know how to use leh how to connect


, ya ya ya, ya ha, ya ya


is it ya, (mmhmm), oh okay so so that means like don't need IC


don't need to use your handphone just , the token, against the QR code, !hey! !chey! I thought is auto one, I thought it's like you know like the ERP those kind of


oh okay


so you have to turn on bluetooth, so you have to turn on, oh, mister Wong


but only like as long as like seventy per cent right, [orh]


ya lah because they they are also so scared lah, so you have to be very very careful, oh okay so I think, maybe we can go and, okay lah go to the CC lah


oh that means like once you collected the, once you have collected the token hor, you can use you can use it immediately, ah then need to charge one, or its battery one


oh, oh okay no what I meant was, ah you need to charge lah, or its battery operated


ah but I think is is is okay lah it's quite good lah at least you know like especially the elder people elderly right <mandarin>老阿婆:lao a po</mandarin> these she she once she has got got hold gets hold of this token at this she doesn't need to like


like take out her her IC or what, right,


, oh ya ya ya, ah ah,


oh okay okay, ya lah good ya lah quite good lah, [orh]


phase three ah hope can travel soon lor, I ya lah of course lah my favourite country, like japan or japan lah, ya <mandarin>日本:ri ben</mandarin> I miss going Fukuoka


you know at least like is uh is like, only five hours away hor, quite fast


ya lah you going to the the southern side what, so you say you go hong you go hong kong is like three hours plus to four then this one just ya another one hour so much might as well you go japan right, then anyway you go hong kong also


!aiya!, also a lot of problems lah, uh, , ya


ya it was not it was not, they they don't really pro promote that, actually is not not not very popular leh


ya, then just like, recent how just like how many years ago like four, three four years ago, then they started, ya ya ya, then is they started like


hor promoting this country, ah opening up lor, (mmhmm) (mmhmm)


oh ya Hokkaido ya, hokkai it Hokkaido, , no ah but actually I think I I I still prefer Fukuoka oh but lavender you mean the lavender ah but we didn't get a chance to to to see what


that was not the season, ya ya lah that was not the that was not the season lah, [orh] you [orh] the weather ya


ya the weather ya I also miss the weather, feh but Fukuoka during june is is is not not as cold as in Hokkaido leh


cause, right, remember last june we went !wah! it was quite hor quite


quite cool right until I I fell sick leh so scary leh is like like so sudden you know, ya, ya, ya


very brave hor so good, free and easy ya


ya free and easy and you take train walk everywhere, ya


I think ya lah it should be the, the the the the weather lor is like the drastic drastic change in the temperature, ya and then the the the cold wind the cold wind also


and it never wear warm enough lah you know like, like my mother her she never wear enough clothings are, but who would expect what june hor


ya, all the driving ah the driving very smooth what my sister she very steady very calm hor


confident ya but then is ya lah because Hokkaido the traffic is not not that bad what and then the the drivers, they're all very patient then is like not so fast paced you know they they are like ah like ah not taking their own sweet time lah but it's just like


not as stress as us or as hectic as in, other parts of japan lor, right, !wah! even ya, ya if you can see like


!wah! the the the the way they wore their speed everything why is totally different lor it's like ah !wah! everybody rushing for time, or like cake cannot afford to to to waste any or waste waste their time


or like time very precious to them, (mmhmm), ya ha


(mmhmm), okay, but you always like that one lah


(uh huh),


ya ya


you know that day, (mmhmm), #kan chiong#, no, I think singapore pace is, singapore's pace is not as bad lah as compared to like japan even hong kong also ah now everybody rushing rushing like mad


!wah! remember last time we went hong kong then the !wah! we took their MTR !wow! so packed like sardine ah, ya


oh ya, ya, so next time if you want to go try to avoid their their peak hours lah


were were they like those hong kong people, but they are, I mean they are are they more polite


ya


[orh], oh you think so


, ya right, you mean they you mean they don't use phone one


but they can go like they can whisper, have to be considerate lah is like you ya must spare a thought for others okay I think is is is good lah I think we all singaporeans should also learn more from the


ya, but then, I think is like but you know like sometimes I take train, is like almost everybody they're they're using their phone and it's like they are not aware of their surroundings


you know so, actually I don't really like to use, use my phone when I'm taking a train I call me maybe is like you remember the the the incident that happen in Taipei


ya so is like ya lor so you have to be at least you have to be aware of the surroundings you know ah so, err I mean what for lah at home you also used phone your handphone everywhere you go you use them for so I think


when you are in a public area or taking public transport, it is best to the rest rest your eyes lah, ya because you you, ya


, ya, that's why <mandarin>对:dui</mandarin> lor so you won't know ah


you know that like like that Taipei that guy eh he's he's sentenced to death already hor, ya someone so young leh


oh, no lah he's like he's like violent, a violent or abusive it's like he was like very into addicted to those those playing those violent games right remember


ah those, ya ya it's like he ya lor, like, greatly influenced then is like he like wanted to to to to like


to ah to follow lor then !aiya! <mandarin>就这样:jiu zhe yang</mandarin> lor then <mandarin>就:jiu</mandarin> snap lor, very very unhealthy lah so so I I I always tell my my two sons also what don't always use handphone


you know like your aunt also see what happen to her


!aiya!, (mmhmm)


ya, ya lor health problems lor <mandarin>对咯:dui lo</mandarin>


ya definitely, ya, so you have to lah ya lah like, like, maybe used for fifteen minutes then you rest your eyes


so, so I I also, like like my old man also, you lies everywhere he goes also even to a toilet he also uses his handphone


terrible, so so, ya so I also I also read from somewhere what there's this article they say if like let's say you have, like you suffer from constipation or what the more you don't use your phone when you are doing your business


ya because you it will cause it will cause your constipation to worsen leh, ya, because is like, you actually when you doing your business right you should just like let it like


take a longer time to


to come out right so it's like with with when you are still using the handphone, then <mandarin>你就一直:ni jiu yi zhi</mandarin> concentrate on using your handphone lor, you, I ya ya right you get what I mean something like that lah ya


so that's why he's having all these all these problems lah !aiya!, already coming over sixty already okay I tell you, ya two more years lah


old man already lah, what to do


ya next time you have your own family then you then you will know this problems, you think so easy, ya, ya that's why they always say


when you become, when you become a your, when you become a mother then you will understand what your mother had gone through, ya, because


if not, ya if not ya lor if not, ya lor if not if you, never give birth, you you ya lor, you you won't ever know one lah you know the


the the the pain the suffering a mother has to go through, ya that's why <mandarin>伟大:wei da</mandarin> right, ya


my old mother ah ya lah of course lah to a certain extent, ya, but as like compared to other mother he she is err


better lah, I mean though she can be, though she can be very bias at times


ya,


!aiya!, !aiya! put better yourself what, no leh but I think ya I might if let's say go to a completely aircon place I I might try lah but then I will still stand by the disposable mask lah


ya ya right, ah,


I see, I will see how lah, I will see how lah, eh anyway someone someone has been using it for the past few days never wash hor, actually you should wash leh


you should wash before use and you wash before you use and after each use, ya, just wash with warm water and a bit of like


err it's not it's not it's not, ah I think those very mild one or maybe like err, [orh] maybe, no no not not those dish dish washing detergent or what lah


I don't I take those maybe like shower foam all these, I also not very sure lah, ah, ya, ah

I don't even think it's, it's worth to pay even though worth to pay three fifty <mandarin>三块半:san kuai ban</mandarin> right, it's cheap <mandarin>便宜:pian yi</mandarin> but then when you think of what else you can buy with <mandarin>三块半:san kuai ban</mandarin> right something else nicer right

like with knew like new uh uh new foods lah, ya


ah, that kind of ah ah


I think right, I remember there was once very long ago I think it was at centre point there was this in centre point like I can always like, always got this very <mandarin>模糊:mo hu</mandarin> you know it's like <mandarin>还可以记得:hai ke yi ji de</mandarin> but also cannot really remember that kind of thing it's like a very faint memory


so it's a faint memory of centre point it is I don't know is it centre point but is a indonesian restaurant, ya, what is it called again


do you think is this still do you <mandarin>还有吗:hai you ma</mandarin> do you think do you know whether, closed down already right of course right I always have that very, ah ah ah, because I remember right


ya remember the ah I didn't really remember the food, I remember the deck the decor <mandarin>他外面:ta wai mian</mandarin> the decor, they have those <mandarin>印尼:yin ni</mandarin> 的 carving ah


ya so I think it was very special ah so I can't remember but I think now that was very long ago more than fifteen, twenty years ago fifteen years ago that kind of thing but, you know


ya ya ya have you ya, ya


ya but, normal all these <mandarin>找不到:zhao bu dao</mandarin> already lah, ya but I think rice table


Tanglin, oh grandma grandma now is where again <mandarin>那次我们看到:na ci wo men kan dao</mandarin> is at ion right


ya like <mandarin>好像没有了:hao xiang mei you le</mandarin> hor, no more already


!hais!, of grandma's reopening but then I don't remember cause, I I remember it is


you can't tell mah I don't really remember leh the, maybe I don't I really don't know ya, I just remember ya I remember the food that's the what do you call that the rice the grandma's right the grandma's


it was like what do you call, fine dining <mandarin>这样:zhe yang</mandarin> ah fine fine #zi char# fine fine #zi char#, the last time where they had it at united square


ya, but it was not not very cheap but I love the drinks some of the drinks are very nice also though special in-house kind of drinks


ya, ya cause that this few times we go also never see leh I don't really know leh maybe it's a, corner <mandarin>一个角落:yi ge jiao luo</mandarin> I don't really know <mandarin>都没有看到:dou mei you kan dao</mandarin> leh air I'm like ah did you see I walk one few rounds two cups too <mandarin>都找不到:dou zhao bu dao</mandarin> leh


ya I don't think the other levels, ya also B one but got B one one meh


but you know ion <mandarin>很怪的:hen guai de</mandarin> the B one it's not really like B one, it is actually technically, many levels ah


ya, ya lor, Tampines mall


oh the one from #kampung glam#


!aiya!, ya, Tampines lah, !aiyo!


ya lor, let me go and eat, ya lor ya lor, !aiya! now now you talk about food


don't know leh but they say okay like I think of what do you think of the token will you use the token, trace together token, no because the thing is hor from what I know <mandarin>我听说:wo ting shuo</mandarin> lah that token <mandarin>对吗:dui ma</mandarin> that token right has this QR code you know the QR code you used for safe entry go to the mall go to the cafe <mandarin>都有:dou you</mandarin> safe entry right so the safe entry so the small barcode hor


the QR code ah not bar code lah is linked to your IC, ya is linked to your I see so when when you next in future I think what their plan is is that rather than taking out your IC


just ya


ya ya ya I think that's what they will, that's why right so it's like I think ah, ERP the the satellite is it I think satellite is it, but like in that sense lah like


uh uh uh uh, no so I don't think it is like that because, you have to use that


that's why, I have ya I think so that's, ya cause it's linked to everything but then I remember that day right they will say right oh that one of the minister say previously said that they won't make it compulsory that it's just optional then look at what they're doing now they say what


you have to do it has to be compulsory, for like seventy ah, ya before we can go to phase three, I started on when they say when they talk about the announcement I thought they say oh phase three is going to start no still got so still got hurdles you know that's it hurdles


to pass ya, ya lor <mandarin>这种:zhe zhong</mandarin> what to do


see see, ya I don't want to say very Kiasu <mandarin>还是什么:hai shi shen me</mandarin> but, they won't go away one mah the token <mandarin>他还给你那么多时间:ta huan gei ni na me duo shi jian</mandarin> go and collect you know


ya, ya, I think at the person there ya will be able to help you connect will will help you link it to your IC


ya, charge ah, I think battery [bah] I have no idea leh, I don't know I don't know about the specifics


ya ya, I worry about what


but I'm scared I'm scared I don't know how to do the procedure I dunno how to scan the QR code, then maybe the maybe the person may not also be that friendly


you also experience that kind of fear right, so I think by doing so you <mandarin>用那个:yong na ge</mandarin> token you can help you know link, make things easier lah for everyone


ya, ya so ya lah I think not bad lah but then okay so then oh what do you, what do you so other than that k, what do you look what else you look forward to at phase three


travel where you want to go, which country japan not bad


, ya quite quite fast right <mandarin>五个小时:wu ge xiao shi</mandarin> I think is


to go to a place like japan which is almost completely different from singapore I think <mandarin>真的:zhen de</mandarin> is considered quite fast right, ya but that time ah, ya


squeezed one more hour ya ya, so don't know eh you don't you never know, ya you don't really know but then


I don't know like okay japan right, it's, Tokyo okay we know Tokyo we know Osaka but then <mandarin>以前的:yi qian de</mandarin> Fukuoka they didn't really it wasn't really promoted as a tourist destination right


like ten twenty years ago was it a thing to go Fukuoka <mandarin>你记得吗:ni ji de ma</mandarin> since


, ya


like opening it up lah, ya but then what do you miss what do you miss about japan I think recently <mandarin>我们不是去:wo men bu shi qu</mandarin> Fukuoka right, oh Hokkaido Hokkaido Hokkaido ha <mandarin>不是:bu shi</mandarin> Hokkaido <mandarin>不是:bu shi</mandarin> Hokkaido ah Hokkaido ah


ya what do you miss, Fukuoka uh


not the not lavender <mandarin>天气:tian qi</mandarin> weather


ya you know <mandarin>你怕热:ni pa re</mandarin> right


Fukuoka, ya ya, northern, ya


very cold right, ya ya, like a sudden <mandarin>天气:tian qi</mandarin> lah <mandarin>天气的问题:tian qi de wen ti</mandarin> lah, ya, but then I remember what you we went to the suit so like we were we rent a car right remember rent a car and then err ya so you know it's like


you are able to go wherever you want cause even normally <mandarin>出国:chu guo</mandarin> you know, you either follow a tour free and easy but then free and easy you you also should take a train right take public transport <mandarin>对:dui</mandarin> ya so


rent the car then you know so after that <mandarin>你就:ni jiu</mandarin> what hap like what happened is it <mandarin>着凉:zhao liang</mandarin> what do you think happen what why you suddenly catch a cold like you got a fever why do you think so


the weather is it, ya ya, why ah, !aiyo!


!aiya! your mother, ya I think I remember we also not prepared right for this for the weather, ya but I think, okay lah but what do you think of the driving


ya ya like Tokyo Tokyo I remember, !wah! it's not just


ya ya, ya, time very precious but I remember that time when I went because in february right I went Tokyo


then I remember that day I plan, cause I was the first to plan so went Tokyo for like <mandarin>几天:ji tian</mandarin> two days three days, then after that cause okay my thinking was is that was that you know try to recover as many places as we can


right then after, tell you always like that I think, you know like, use good use good, go as many places as you possibly can


then all my friends like okay most of them right after that they were so tired, but then they also felt that it was also very fulfilling, but it was also because you know like I think there were so many people <mandarin>人山人海:ren shan ren hai</mandarin> right


the fact that there were so many people, somehow it also makes you feel tired cause, so many people, all around you


you know everytime very like to, but you know in actual fact right I don't really think so leh do you think you are very Kanchiong, no right I think


I don't know who are the people you know, ya, you know ya like, hong kong right


ya, !aiya! anyhow like okay lah the hong kong people quite <mandarin>赶:gan</mandarin> one right so they they won't hesitate to just push you


in you know cause they're rushing also so they they wouldn't hesitate to, just push you in that kind of thing <mandarin>不算很有礼貌:bu suan hen you li mao</mandarin> lah but then, you know gets they want to get to world that kind of thing


ya, hong kong people, I don't know eh but because, polite or cause okay you think about it [orh] hong kong people


their politeness may not be something that is genuine do you think so it's because of their culture their upbringing


that they're taught to be, to be you know very polite, but then maybe deep down they're trying to control themselves, they may not be as polite as they really are


ya sometimes I think so leh like I feel like you know they're trying to polite but then you know at the same time, how polite can you be right you're so polite, but then, you will also have your own emotions what so sometimes you know if you are


on the train, you know sometimes tourist right we don't really know their culture, so you go the train maybe use your phone, ya like apparently they're not allowed to use their phone you know or something like that I don't know whether it's true but it's it's not okay not to talk on their phone


cannot talk on the phone, but you can't quite you can use quietly lah has to be on the silent mode or something so it's the it's the kind of culture <mandarin>他们的习俗:ta men de xi su</mandarin> lah


ya ya, uh


uh uh


uh yes Taipei yes


, true true, !wah! but the taiwan one was scary though, now is how long quite long ago right but I never follow, like I remember some some of them they took video of


those on board


to death ya ya I think will be hanged on the agent lor, !aiya! don't know lah I don't know whether is it I don't really know what caused him to be like that, or was it like a mental illness or something but I'm not really sure also


uh, became too view for him until can't hit


get in the action, follow ah


but do you think it's aye, also <mandarin>不可以这样:bu ke yi zhe yang</mandarin> what, ya lor


ya, true, ya ya, but do you see like I I remember I watch a video right then they say


all this technology, they developed it it is to, it is meant to help us, but instead you know it's causing more problems like causing problems like addiction


health problems, mental problems that kind of thing, we are using in the wrong way lah don't you think so


ya, ya


!aiya!

I don't know if once you open this pandora box then straight away, you you really don't know what else can happen one


it's unlikely lah but it's still a chance that it can happen what right


then just nice I was like driving across the junction then I saw these two bikers you know then like !wah! these two bikers looks suspicious like, like


I I knew that they were there to do some uh law enforcement but the thing is <mandarin>我就是没有注意没有很注意:wo jiu shi mei you zhu yi mei you hen zhu yi</mandarin> lah <mandarin>因为一大清早:yin wei yi da qing zao</mandarin> then, so I drove past them then I was like oh man shit they are LTA people then I decided to wind down my window <mandarin>因为你懂我的:yin wei ni dong wo de</mandarin> window <mandarin>你你看过我的车:ni ni kan guo wo de che</mandarin> mah <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> window <mandarin>黑到不可以再黑:hei dao bu ke yi zai hei</mandarin> Liao you cannot even see me from outside one (ppc) <mandarin>就是:jiu shi</mandarin> like oh <mandarin>我驾过他们的时候就:wo jia guo ta men de shi hou jiu</mandarin> !wah! <mandarin>惨:can</mandarin> Liao Suay Suay Suay Suay I quickly wind down but they already saw me


it it could be but <mandarin>就是说他们就看到我转那个:jiu shi shuo ta men jiu kan dao wo zhuan na ge</mandarin> junction lor so like so they decided to stop me then they told me like eh err can you stop at the side of the junction err of the bus stop then I say err okay sure then I stopped there


!wah! then straight away right they come down they they didn't even check my windows because <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> I wind down my windows mah but but the first thing they they did was they they ask me to open up the bonnet <mandarin>要:yao</mandarin> check <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> engine lah (ppc) <mandarin>因为有:yin wei you</mandarin> like like in the car scene <mandarin>就是有很多人玩他们的:jiu shi you hen duo ren wan ta men de</mandarin> engine mah <mandarin>吊:diao</mandarin> engine like change their engine parts and all those things which is


(ppc) eh <mandarin>好看:hao kan</mandarin> mah it's the car scene


but then <mandarin>就是:jiu shi</mandarin> straight away he ah checked my engine and he say but but I can honestly tell you my car is perfectly stock as in like is perfectly legal one there's really nothing illegal except for the windows so <mandarin>他就是:ta jiu shi</mandarin> check <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> engine he got nothing to say


then see check the exhaust take photo and everything then they got nothing to say then then like I straight away just say I got certificate one leh then I take out the certificate then show them but just Suay lah I haven't register my certificate yet lah so the thing is so they think that it's still illegal so they but they see the the exhaust they feel like eh really it's like a legal exhaust never touch before one so


they Bo Pian #lan lan# they just straight away okay can you wind up your windows I need to check your window then I say err okay sure I wind up then straight away they say actually we stop you because of your window but then we see that your exhaust doesn't look like it's from stock on this car


then I [orh] uh okay lah Bo Pian lah then you just check my window lor so, (ppc) it's like because they have two bikers so I think one of them is their senior lah then the other one is like a junior like that so the junior like actually want to let me go already he really actually want to let me go already but then the senior say eh brother


you must check the window right then then he Bo Pian lor he checked then end up he he wrote me a paper to ask ask me to go inspection, then <mandarin>问题就是来:wen ti jiu shi lai</mandarin> Liao lor inspection then because they because recently I going to have audit mah then the thing is I went for the so I'm supposed to go inspections within twenty four hours which is <mandarin>很难真的很难:hen nan zhen de hen nan</mandarin> it's like I I'm supposed to go to office at that morning to prepare for my audit


so really Bo Pian then I just call my dad then my dad really sent sent down sent down my car to the workshop to tear out the tint first


(hmm), then then at the point in time <mandarin>他就讲:ta jiu jiang</mandarin> straight away it's illegal <mandarin>他就其实不用放都看懂就看就懂是:ta jiu qi shi bu yong fang dou kan dong jiu kan jiu dong shi</mandarin> illegal Liao mah <mandarin>你都懂的:ni dou dong de</mandarin> what (ppc)


then, ya lah so I went inspection already with the windows tear down err the the window tint tear down then but the thing is it's just a series of unfortunate events you know <mandarin>真的因为就是昨天我就是:zhen de yin wei jiu shi zuo tian wo jiu shi</mandarin> meet meet the guys then after that we were playing around with our tail lights ah the coding then <mandarin>就是说那个:jiu shi shuo na ge</mandarin> coding <mandarin>就是:jiu shi</mandarin> like


so the thing is I I couldn't code it back correctly in time so the thing is, and I was late lah so they couldn't satisfy my exhaust also so err in the end I had to go back the the other err two days later lor I waited for my audit finish already then I went back


ya but everything okay already lah now but I think after this maybe next week I will go back put go put back the tint already, (ppc)


(ppc), ya lah but the the whole point of it is it is really to protect my car because <mandarin>你懂:ni dong</mandarin> what I always park my car under the sun no I don't park under shelter then, some more <mandarin>如果将来真的是可以回去:ru guo jiang lai zhen de shi ke yi hui qu</mandarin> malaysia ah then


then ah the the the sun will come in then then then it's like you know like potential thieves they will look inside the car then see eh got bag then they smash the windows steal my bag how, (ppc)


no lah I driving my I I still driving my golf lor, my parents won't won't give up their car so soon one lah their car so expensive


(ppc) ya lor so


(ppc)


, ya modify engine is very very illegal <mandarin>就是:jiu shi</mandarin> like one of the most illegal, things that you can do for a car


(ppc) ya <mandarin>就是就是就是说被抓了就是你的车完了就是:jiu shi jiu shi jiu shi shuo bei zhua le jiu shi ni de che wan le jiu shi</mandarin> [orh] Gong Liao, [orh] Gong then they confiscate (hmm), it's ya you still need to pay fine what, still need to pay lah


ya you are you still owe the bank money what, you still owe the bank mah, so the


bank <mandarin>充公就是说我:chong gong jiu shi shuo wo</mandarin> that means I declared bankrupt already , that's even that's that's almost the that's almost the same same bad situation as well, (mmhmm)


ya then after that I have to be declared bankrupt leh, ya eh then don't forget leh my house is under my name eh so like if anything happen !wah! they just confiscate everything sia then how


ya lor so it's like


, cannot lah the car is registered to be one point four how can I put a two litre engine inside, cannot one


that's why I say <mandarin>你不可以动那个:ni bu ke yi dong na ge</mandarin> engine <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> engine <mandarin>你动:ni dong</mandarin> once you touch the engine right you change the engine from its original like so called factory parts right then it's unless it's reasonable lah <mandarin>就是说你的:jiu shi shuo ni de</mandarin> engine <mandarin>可能坏掉你要换掉:ke neng huai diao ni yao huan diao</mandarin> pistons that that kind of thing then obviously the one is legal but the thing is if you go overboard and you (ppc)


increase the performance of the engine beyond err, beyond a certain uh certain range right then it becomes a illegal uh it becomes the illegal endeavour lah it's it's a crime already lor


ah, ya I never overshot but the thing is the car can only have that engine, spoil already then have to register the new engine lor


have to engine fix already, no you pay COE for the whole car but the thing is (ppc), people <mandarin>会玩车:hui wan che</mandarin> what so when you change the engine right the engine there's every engine has a so called like a NRIC lah IC number like that so every the IC number tallies to the car IC number


so if you change, so if you change the the engine anyhow right then you never register this IC number with the authorities right then when they catch you ah it's illegal man, it doesn't it doesn't matter whether it's like err two same cars they change the engine they swap the engine


similar car you know you like exactly the same car they swap the engines ah that is still illegal


(ppc), tow away <mandarin>不一定会死:bu yi ding hui si</mandarin> lah but most of the time it is will confiscate, ya most of the time <mandarin>是你拿不回:shi ni na bu hui</mandarin> Liao lah ya so


don't don't play is better lah there's a limit to how much we can play lah, ya, (ppc), ya lor so you know you see <mandarin>真的:zhen de</mandarin> it's like a really a lot people they play overboard already if you see like


always got news articles what like cars racing each other, that at #choa chu kang# there then straight up they all Kena, catch by like TP all these then, (mmhmm)


(ppc) no the car the cars will keep for, it will keep for a X number of years I don't know how many years ah I can't remember then <mandarin>过后他们会拿出来:guo hou ta men hui na chu lai</mandarin> auction, (ppc), yes they will auction to the highest bidder lor then after that err but the bad thing is right you auction the car already right you can't drive it in singapore so the car you


(ppc) <mandarin>就是说代表你这个车你:jiu shi shuo dai biao ni zhe ge che ni</mandarin> auction Liao <mandarin>你标了之后:ni biao le zhi hou</mandarin> yes !wah! you got a a super Chio lamborghini !wah! lime green everything perfectly road legal but the thing is


ya but the thing is, because it was caught ah for a crime right the car is illegal in singapore already <mandarin>所以这个这辆车就是不可以在新加坡驾:suo yi zhe ge zhe liang che jiu shi bu ke yi zai xin jia po jia</mandarin> lor you have to bring you have to it overseas to sell away or something lor


(ppc) well I I guess it it it works lah because usually this kind of like auction right, it's it's only open to a limited amount of uh limited number of parties so like the price the price is not very high also because the thing is, nobody will want to pay high for a car that they cannot drive in singapore


ya so they will bid low then usually you will get it way below market price lah but the thing is, but the thing is ya lor you you just cannot drive it in singapore which is quite a waste lah I would say


!huh! <mandarin>一大堆:yi da dui</mandarin> leh, no no no no no, err I I I I think so leh because I I saw recently they had err auction for the lamborghini and err I think it was a GTR that that were caught in a race then they they had a auction for it so


err it was it was sold then after that people just export it out of singapore lor, (hmm)


(uh huh) (uh huh), (ppc) <mandarin>可以:ke yi</mandarin> lor <mandarin>就是只可以买:jiu shi zhi ke yi mai</mandarin> private property lah we cannot BTO lah which is, err I I guess <mandarin>有好有坏:you hao you huai</mandarin> because at least because if you BTO right you get government grant


err there's a bit of subsidies here and there lah so at least we get a house for ourselves but then, Bopian leh because like the ABSD then my mum want to buy the house then cannot be just put the put a house under her name then the amount of ABSD she pay ah err <mandarin>可以买屋子:ke yi mai wu zi</mandarin> Liao eh how cannot sia that's why we decided that


just use my name lor at that time <mandarin>我还:wo hai</mandarin> single what <mandarin>没有女朋友都没有人懂这个东西:mei you nv peng you dou mei you ren dong zhe ge dong xi</mandarin> I I already figured that oh <mandarin>可能我是:ke neng wo shi</mandarin> forever single <mandarin>那种:na zhong</mandarin> forever alone then <mandarin>就我就直接跟我的:jiu wo jiu zhi jie gen wo de</mandarin> mother <mandarin>讲:jiang</mandarin> lor like mum err you just err put the name the house under my name lah then you can save the ABSD


then the money in the future you can just , then how I know then like within a few months later !walao!


then I meet meet <mandarin>到我的:dao wo de</mandarin> girlfriend then we get together then now now we have to make make further planning lor like uh future planning it's like <mandarin>我们就是不可以拿屋子:wo men jiu shi bu ke yi na wu zi</mandarin> lah <mandarin>不可以拿:bu ke yi na</mandarin> BTO lor so right now this


(ppc), government cannot give you subsidy to buy a condominium one, (ppc)


ya ya lah but Bo Pian leh this kind of thing is like err
