Meganut 2nd Gear April 10, 2013 Share April 10, 2013 (edited) Yes I do sound like a Malaysian I guess this is an outflow of what has happen to me from conversing with them on a daily basis as this is how they speak and write in emails, maybe only to me :) ... My work demand that I work 60% of my time in Malaysia.. KL and Johor in general. Unfortunately only a handful of Malaysians are well verse in speaking in English, usually Malaysians from KL are able to understand and converse in English better. As for Johor, most of the time they speak in Mandarin. It is generally more difficult to find people who are working closely with me in Johor, are able to converse comfortably in English, unless they are the business owners which is usually the case and they were most likely educated in the English language in the 1960-70s.. Even Malaysian Chinese who are not educated in KL or Penang especially those presently in their twenties and thirties are the result of Malaysia changing Malay as a first language, but ex-PM Abdullah changed that when he was serving office to use English as their first language. In the past only English papers are set in English, now most of their papers are set in English. So the younger generation of Malaysian are still able to understand and converse confidently in English. This information came from a teacher that I met when I was out having lunch in KL. That explain the gap in their use of languages. I really really love working with Malaysians, they are hardworking and intelligent, only barrier is them being unfamiliar with English. (applicable only to those in their 20s and 30s) Well the main bulk of my work involves me working closely with the ground level staff that usually speak to me in Mandarin, or simple English, mainly to their branch office or factories located in Johor... When I first came on this job, I totally cannot speak Mandarin at all, but was forced to learn, and I know even the Mandarin I use is also condemn... I do have to meet clients and 30% of them are ang moh. I am required to work closely with suppliers in China, therefore, sometimes I write the way I write because that is how we converse to our vendors in China and Malaysia. I agree its bad English I love my job. But sometimes I feel confuse, like identity crisis, it is even worse when after a whole day on skype with vendors in China, and off I go for my dinner and it still feels like I am in a conference call in China.. After 3 years in my job, I am now a rojak... This is just me, I believe the rest of you are still sane and ok, but who knows what may happen after 10, years? hahahaaa...

TVT Supercharged April 11, 2013 Share April 11, 2013 my only concern is actually the jam at the causeway........ I believe most Singaporeans will avoid going in that weekend. So going in should not be jam, but coming out on Sunday maybe will. Those SG cars going in will probably be driven by SPR going in to vote. So most will drive back on Sunday afternoon and night after casting their votes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
