英语万岁....

又走进这间中餐馆吃午餐了。
里面人山人海,好不容易才找到空位。
邻座有两位穿着西装的男士,用很流利的英语交谈。
忽然其中一个手提电话响了,出乎意料的他用华语回答。
"Mr. Tan,请放心,你的payment很快就会弄好,我会亲自把cheque交给你.........。"

没多久,侍应生来点菜,用华语对那位男士说 "先生,要吃什么?"

"Sorry, I m not a China man。" 他一脸不悦的回答。

"Sorry Sir, may I have you order。" 侍应生很无奈的再用英语问他。

有很多懂华语的华人,很多时候因为贪方便或情况不允许,
不使用华语而改用其它语言,那是情有可原。

不过假如像这位仁兄,明明懂华语却假装不懂,
那肯定是自甘堕落。
英语万岁,Yeah !

Uh... So bad de... If I'm the waiter and I heard his phone conversation, I will curse him.

But last time when I was helping my dad (my dad is a hawker), I saw a malay looking guy and I talked to him in BM. He scolded me for talking with him in BM. He shouted until everyone looked at me. What's wrong I speak in BM? I am a Malaysian and so were he. And most of all, he looks 100% like MALAY lahhh!
