    Just found out that my dobi guy is from kelantan. He’s a chinese so of course i asked him about all those burning questions.

    From what i understood, chinese mostly mingle together and have their own community, where everything haram is available there (when the state allowed it).

    Yes many chinese supported pas. Didnt ask why. Yet.

    Yes the water sucks. The teh tarik free flow is true and not exxagerated.

    Apparently most tauke in kelantan are chinese. He deacribed the situation like indonesia, where majority of wealth is hold by local chinese.

    Apparently non kelantanese cannot have permanent land deed there. Cn only rent about 60+ years.

    Apparently kelantanese cinese damn rich. Authority doesnt check their wealth. They keep lots of cash and use it to avoid tax. Even went as far as using cash only to buy and build houses. Not sure how that works because we will get targeted immediately if we add those properties under our name but that’s what he said.

    Would kepochi more but customer came.

    Happy July! Sad to hear most 3rd party apps are already down. But, i had a lot of fun last two days? Well, even prior to that. Had my person over to meet the family and the cats. My anxious cat who’s always anxious and scared of strangers warmed up to him and let my person pet his back. So cute 🥺🥺

      It’s totally okay to feel that way — I’m also Chinese, but my main language is English. I’m not exactly a true Chinese either as my livestyle and beliefs differ a lot because I’m much more westernized and I’m an atheist.

      The people whom you describe are not the type of users who frequent here. Hard to create a community where the people you might share commonality with don’t know you exist .

      I think you’re trying to find a place to call home in a completely wrong country (so to speak). The apps/websites that the mandarin community uses are completely different with almost no overlapped from the ones majority of the user here use.

      I came from smjk c and nowadays none of my ex classmates type in Chinese anymore lol. Sure we still speak mandarin when f2f with each other out of habit, but our work environments & in many cases our spouses are mostly English, so English kinda naturally replaced Chinese for many of us. We also speak English with fellow Chinese-educated colleagues at the work place.
