It's the new trend mah. US strong, we imitate US accent ("city" pronounced as "silly"); China now getting strong, we much also pretend to know chinese mah. nowaday, even angmor speaking bosses try to add one or two chinese words in their speech, rite
you know what? the speak chinese campaign use a slogan like this: "华语 cool" :dunno:
strange rite? what "cool" has to do with it?? some forms of Sing'nese I reckon.
