His accent was so strong that half of the time I’m either asking him to repeat or I give up and converse in English. It’s a little embarrassing when I didn’t know what Tioman was and he could reply me. In German: “Oh, it’s a beach in Malaysia. It’s really great! Have u been there before?” I answered, “Nope, never heard of it.” Then he made another remark, “Oh I’ve watched the National Day live in Marina Bay with my friends. I like, in particularly, the … …” Then, he noticed my blank look. The reason? My friend, I didn’t catch the National Day Parade this year! Lol! I should start to pay more attention to my homeland and its neighbour. Haha.
