Lesson 4 of Hokkien Romanisation on Clubhouse 👋 Tones at 10AM - August 7, 2021.
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 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.
Some of you might know that I also have another podcast called Ongline Podcast. It is a personal journal podcast that consist of everything from my emotional struggles to weight struggles, from my trip to Chicago to my trip to Malaysia. Anything I want to express about myself, my friends, my thoughts, and my stance.
I usually don’t post anything from there on Penang Hokkien. But since this video was shot in Malaysia, I thought I’d share it with you. And you are also invited to check out the podcast. It may not be for you, but if you’re interested, check it out, I won’t be offended if you don’t like it. When it is a real life podcast, things can’t always be that happy. Find out more about myself there.
In the meantime, check out the video I shot in Pulau Tikus from February.
Guests: Hiao Lok, Pong Pah, Kuku TengTeng & Hao Tniao

I managed to call up many of Penang Hokkien Podcast listeners who now living abroad. They are either from Penang, lived in Penang, or share our Northen Malaysian Hokkien that I call Penang Hokkien. I am sure many of them share the same nostalgic experience when they find other people to chat with in Penang Hokkien. That’s the whole reason why I started this show.
If I don’t get to chat with you, share your personal stories about how you missed Penang in the comments area.
Next recording is scheduled on August 25, 2007. Saturday night. 9PM to 12AM. Check on a special post about the next recording.
I want to send a special thank you to Ang Ku Kueh for making this wonderful video.

Guests: Too many to name. You just have to check it out.
This show is for all the listeners out there who have been supporting Penang Hokkien for a long time, and those who are starting to discover the joy and fun of participating in a chat show entirely (almost) in Penang Hokkien.
It is your continuous support that made Penang Hokkien possible and going strong for 2 years. I hope for many more to come.
Thanks to Ah Tox for the album artwork, and this crazy picture below! I wish I’m that thin.
This is how you can join me in celebrating our Penang Hokkien 2nd anniversary.
Show up on Saturday morning, August 11. 10AM to 1PM (Malaysian time)
I’ll be doing all the recording using Skype. If you have Skype, add me to your contact. My Skype ID is johnong. Then, send me your ID, I will try to talk to as many people as possible during the first hour about Penang Hokkien Podcast.
If you don’t have Skype, download now, and get a pair of headphones, find a quiet place, and wait for me to call you. I will have 3 people at one time, so that we can still carry on a conversation. Too many people will turn into a mess.
1st Hour: Penang Hokkien Podcast 2nd Anniversary
2nd Hour: “2”. Anything to do with 2.
3rd Hour: “Gua Poh Penang Lang”. This show is for all the Penangites living abroad.
To celebrate Penang Hokkien 2nd Anniversary, I will not take a list of people. Anyone can join. Just let me call you. Send me an IM, or send a request in the Skype Sembang room. I will call you.
Thanks for all your support for the last 2 years. Hope many of you can join me.
