The One With Karpal Singh

In this "small" World of just over 6,000,000,000 people, there are occasional coincidences that amaze me. Like what happened today. There's a long old friend of mine from Bangsar has a husband that for whatever reason has parents who are from my small hometown and for whatever "wind" ended up in a shop that I grew up in selling shoes ;) (Chan Wei Chee... I am talking about you!!! :) Then I started flashing back some memories I had back then selling shoes. Since young. It was really long time ago. But feels like not many "days" ago... In a small town, gossips are imminent. "... these fellar son or daughter or wife or mistress have this or that and that happen because of this and that..." Then we gossips diminished and slowly transformed into a more serious conversation, I vividly remember some words that keeps on flashing in my head... Loh ket... Kat Cheong... Yuet Kong... Ching Tau... Kapar sing... Obviously I have no idea what are...
