PGHK #113 Lau Ua (留话)

Guests: Ban Chang Kuih, Hai Nam Kei Pui, Ah Leng, Motoleng & Tek Lu Knia

Recently, I have received a phone call, no many phone calls from a certain someone (Ban Chang Kuih) and he never left me a message. That gave me an idea to do a show about how and why Malaysians are not used to leaving voice messages on the phone or set up their own voice message mailbox, or even checking their own voice messages. I think I finally get the idea why now. You have to check it out yourself. Leave more reasons in the comments area.

Do you know what Chulia Street is Hokkien? What about Burma Road?
Do you even know that there are Hokkien names for many streets in Penang. You will have to check out this show.

A listener named “Magician” sent in a Wikipedia link about Penang street names. Check it out:

PGHK #109 Blue Flim

This topic has been in the forum for a long time, we finally find a time to talk about it. The only problem is, we didn’t have enough time. Almost everyone wanted to share their own stories. Now, what are we talking about?

“Blue Flim”

I did not misspelled Flim. That’s how we say it in Hokkien.
I hope you’ll enjoy this episode. And I certainly hope to record a second show in the future. In the meantime, share your experience in the comment area.

PGHK #108 Keh Gua Kok (嫁外国)

Guests: Jipunabor, Laksa Gien, Jepun Lau Ee, & Tua Pui Poh

This week we have several listeners sharing their stories on how they got married to a foreign country. As we celebrate 50 years of independence, it’s good to reflect on our national identity, especially those who live abroad. Explore the courage of those who get married to a foreign land. Laugh with us in funny situations when you get married into a completely different culture.

Happy 50!

Happy Merdeka!
As Malaysia turns 50 today, I’d like to express my appreciation to the country in which I was born and raised.
My beloved Penang island is a part of the country, and it is this country that gave me the unique and interesting culture that I carry with me no matter which country I live.

Take a moment to appreciate your country and culture.

My peranakan heritage is what I treasure greatly. Thanks to Raymond Kwok‘s generous sharing, I was able to visit some of his priceless artifact collections.
