Cantonese quote. Same content spoken in English would not have generated same interest
The Straits Times
|March 13, 2025
I was impressed with Manpower Minister Tan See Leng's use of a Cantonese analogy from a Hong Kong movie in his response to Non-Constituency MP Leong Mun Wai in Parliament during a Budget debate.
It was a refreshing change from the usual proceedings and the Cantonese sentences were clear and precise, summing up the situation in a few sentences.
