Call me Bo Liang

Came across this cute article about Hainanese.

As the article suggested, somehow though sadly I dunno much about being a Hainanese, but I'm proud being one already. Though I'm not a pure breed, but my childhood days with my grandparents and great grandmother has turned me into one.

Just as the article suggested, our forefathers dun hav much money with them, coz they really send home all the money they earn, leaving the bear minimal for their survival here. Remember my article about how thrifty my grandparents are but spending all those money on their love ones. It exactly the case, I have to go back to Hainan Island to know how much they have contruibuted, they simple build schools and house with these money remitted over these years.

I'm not into criticising other dialects, or I may be wrong here.. But you must hav heard stories of families being stingy and fighting over inheritance and money etc.. you surely wun hear this from a pure hainanese family...
