they knew since but just refuse, sometimes I understand it's a frustration that they have not a piece to remember them of. To me, they remain in my life.

BanguIzai SG

ur father and mother both from Amoy?

Clivebenss SG

ur father and mother both from Amoy?

dad was born in Sumatra, mum in Manila but spend most of their childhood and teenage in Amoy. They are not pure Chinese so always been picked on by the others.

BanguIzai SG

Clivebenss SG

more than that actually. Very complex.

BanguIzai SG

can tell me ?

Clivebenss SG

can tell me ?

ok.

Paternal grandpa half Indon. Maternal grandpa half Chinese + pinoy and spanish. Maternal grandma half vietnamese half burmese. I married old girl which is half chinese + British and Indian.

My kids are less Chinese than me if you put it in an equation.

BanguIzai SG

super man !

I am even more Chinese than you lor !

whoa, and your Hokkien is so good even from such a diverse mix leh !

We all should be 慚愧慚愧。

Your Maternal grandpa and Maternal grandma I wonder how they meet one, so so so special. And even you meeting old girl is also so extraordinary, that means karma brings people of mix background together more easily.

Your mother facial feature look like what ? (eg. Pinoy, Chinese, Spanish, Vietnamese or Burmese)

Clivebenss SG

Let say we look like Hokkien.

BanguIzai SG

That means whatever Chinese that were mixed in them were originally Hokkien oso lah?

Clivebenss SG

yup surprisingly no other dialects, only Amoy, Tung Ann and Quemoy Hokkien.

BanguIzai SG

wa u haf Quemoy oso. Tung Ann & Quemoy from the same linguistic stratum one. Amoy almost oso. haha all closely related ones.
