Saturday, 27th October 2012, KS Wong, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

The following is an article on Chinese Thoughts .... posted on FaceBook (thanks to my friend Keon Nck - and I am pinching it from him herein... and attempted to add some visuals to it, to throw in the thrust and feel)

..... it may be talking about Chinese Thoughts..... but I strongly reiterate that it finds resemblance into our local lifestyles ....... Chinese and our other racial groups ..... read it with an open mind .... you should see the resemblances; you may have even heard or even experienced some of real scenarios that fit into what is being said.

Thus, ...... read & have a good laugh ..... many of the elements have happened in Malaysia.

Chinese Thoughts.

Muslim friends .... don't be offended,
perhaps, let it be say a cow

人 啊！ 

Man, O Man!

Dog........ - Photo-KS Wong ........ there has been a surge in the number of people
 raring pure breeds ...... paying big bucks for the dogs .... also a surge
in businesses related to the pet industry (same for CATS).

人 啊，都不講實話：

Man, O Man, never tells the truth:

城裡晚上人叫雞；

In the rural area, chicken calls man awake;

In the cities, man calls for "chickens" cum pros........

舊社會戲子賣藝不賣身，

新社會演員賣身不賣藝。

In the past, famous actresses will not sell their bodies;

"Chicken" .... in local languages .....
......... can be taken to connote a "whore"
or its equivalent. There has been rapid developments
in businesses connected to this dimension ....
