Greetings and Salutation I'm very bad at describing stuff about myself, but I'll try. I'm a Malaysian Chinese. My only strongest language is English and although it is a bit of a disability for me to not be able to speak Chinese in my country, I somehow survived. Lolx I can dare say I love talking to new people, in particular people whose cultures are different to my own. I have met Koreans, Japanese, Arabic Persian, Arabs, Mongolians, Vietnamese, Russians, British, Australian, and plenty more. I went to an Australian High School when i was 16 and spend my Aussie years for a good 7 years. So to ask if I have an Aussie accent, well, you just have to talk to me to hear if I do ;)... Currently I am working in an animation studio back in Malaysia. Art is my interest, story telling is my passion. I like to learn more cultures so my story telling ideas can improve in time. Language speaking is DEFINITELY a big plus for me. I know a bit of French, a bit of Korean, a bit more for Japanese, Chinese on a basic level, Malay in a moderate level and English, well... better than all of them :D. I hope i could help you with your English and in return you help me with your language. I am open to any new languages and open to friends the same. Take care, God bless

    Introducing myself I'm Colin from Malaysia. I am what the chinese people refer to me, as a banana ... which is yellow outside (stating that I am chinese) and white inside (stating that i can only commute in English). I am probably one of the few chinese people who cannot speak a word of mandarin or Cantonese in my country. Not to be confused, Most Chinese Malaysians are capable of speaking all three languages... Cantonese, Bahasa Melayu, and English. Moreover, most chinese are also equipped with their "clan" language or a dialect. My only mastery is English and second to that is the Bahasa Melayu. I was educated in Australia for 6 years. I finished my high school and did my university level over there. I am working now with a 3D animation company that uses Motion Capture equipment to "record" animations from human actors. Languages i am trying to improve are Mandarin OR Cantonese. I've taken a short course for French before, but only know very basic sentencing. I even tried to read the french novel "Little Prince" with much pain. I picked up a few words here and there from Korea, Japanese, and German but do not have a basic foundation with either of them. Hope to speak anyone of you soon. Take care, and God bless

    Basically, (although it is probably directly translated from chinese), it just means you are good for other people to have you . I used Google translator to help translate this into chinese, ... 你是件好事... using the adjective, Pretty good for this sentence is a humble suggestion that you're not that good, ... but good enough to be had. Hope it helps

    you should be a bit specific about what you want to know about it?

    I guess in a business world, it is a cheaper and faster alternative than to produce it in their own country. In terms of quality, well, maybe it is not as highly graded but in the end of the day, it all depends on the amount of sales gained. Does this help??
