I wished that the Prime Minister had given the speech in three
languages too.
I was kinda stunned
that he didn't and then kept wondering why.
I'll only listen to the English version, and then tune-out. But
speaking in Mandarin and Malay appeals to many others who might be
more comfortable in those languages and besides, it has become a
'tradition' to have the speech in three languages for decades
already.
Besides, with professional translators for him, how difficult could
it have been?
I'm still wondering why it was only in English... does anyone know
why?
