Kopitiam Talk – The fish rots from its head first
Heard this Ah Long boasting in the Kopitiam about his riches. In his fineries, diamond studded Rolex and his gleaming brand new Mercedes 300 parking in the No Parking lot, he was in a world of his own, an emperor of the Kopitiams.
Recently his tone was very different. He sounded so much of himself, so confident. Someone asked him why he was openly telling everyone that he was an Ah Long. He quipped, ‘Today the law is different. Now I only have to tell them that I don’t know, 不知道, what my runners were doing, then I am innocent. Those money lending activities and door painting jobs were done by my runners and nothing to do with me. I didn’t know, 我不知道. ’
See, by pleading ignorant, I am innocent. At most they will slap me on the wrist. Really ‘hosay leow’. Not knowing is a valid and acceptable excuse for charging people a lot of money with high interest rate!

ReplyDeleteFrankly, if the company/battalion of soldiers are led into battle by the Sergeants and other NCOs, the survival rate is about 70 per cent.
Leave no man behind.
If led by the young newly commissioned Officers and the Scholar Officers, the survival rate is less than 30 per cent.
Many, Bak Seow Boh Kaw wet in the ears Officers will lead the soldiers to their DEATH.
Likewise, the SPF. Last time, you see the Lao Cheow detectives
solved their cases compared to now.
Takes three men to pin down a man and ran away from the Injuns.
I fully support all the Ah Loongs.
ReplyDeleteNo one forces you to borrow money from them at ridiculous interest rates. If you are so terrible at financial management, the Ah Loong is there to give you a "reality check".

Knn... y most important point u neber eleebarate?
ReplyDeleteAh long.... is he a grassloots leeder?
Huat ah ...
Cannot anyhow say. Sue may come visiting.
ReplyDeleteLeedat .... he neber said if he a leegalised ah loong anok?
ReplyDeleteBut why they allow the fish to rot?
ReplyDeleteThe justice system comes with all sorts of loopholes to protect the rich and elites. Justice is a commodity.
ReplyDeleteBut most people (60%) like the ahlong and support the ahlong so cannot blame the ahlong. but maybe support ahlong is still better than support ahkow or ahwhatever.
ReplyDeletemany ahwhatever in europe/usa are also well paid but also cannot create employment. so ahlong maybe still better.
ReplyDeleteAh Longs sure have a lot of clout in influcencing the law.
ReplyDeleteLike that, where got hope? How to repect the law?
This ahlong god check surroundings have upgrading appleecations to hap residents anok?
ReplyDeleteHigh ceilings have spring cleaning .. he god help to check anok ?
Q : Why did you overcharge by a S$1 million ?
ReplyDeleteA : I don't know.
Ah Long or do you mean Ah Loong? In any case shit runs from the top of the hill.
