Entries arranged from the most ‘reactious’ to the least.
‘…’ indicates edited excerps.
Former Biology-cum-form teacher Ms. Tan Hsiu Hua: WHAT!? WHAT!? Oh, grab me a chair, quickly! WHAT!? I wanna strangle you! Don’t you dare run away!!! I can’t believe it, you nasty…Come back here!
5-year English tuition teacher Mrs. Kuan: Are you kidding? Taiwan as in…the small island on the east of People’s Republic of China? But why? … Well, frankly, nowadays JPA are offering cheap deals. A twinning program for 10 years, not really worth it considering you’re a *beep* student (censored due to diplomatic reasons). Well, since you’ve already made your decision I think you’re being very brave. And I support your choice. Be different from others, I challenge you.
Former biology teacher Ms. Elizabeth Aw: Jun Yi, we need to talk. Sit down here. Want something to drink? Earl Grey? Now what it’s that I hear from them, dropping JPA? You outta your mind?
Form 1 & 2 BM teacher Ms. Hong Lay See: Well, Taiwan is ok to me, from my last visit there, but you sure it’s a good place to study? Better than your JPA deal? … Well, good for both of us then. the next time I’m visiting Taiwan, which I hope to in the future, I’ll contact you…heh!
Grandma’s neighbour Miss-Whoever: Tell your grandson, this is crazy! It’s not even recognised. Ah Ma, recognition for a medical degree is very important. But I guess if your daughter can afford him she should have no problem sending him elsewhere. Malaysia is not a good place to stay in, but I’m worried for you Ah Ma. 10 years later you’ll be left alone while your grandson and granddaughters are everywhere but here. Nobody will sweep your grave for you…
A selection of male friends: I’m not gonna talk to Jun Yi anymore…don’t ask me about him, I know nothing about him. Go away.
A selection of female friends: If you don’t want, give it to me mar… You know how many people out there struggling for one? Traitor traitor…
Dad’s student Mrs. Khor: Taiwan is not safe. With the stupid president they are in for strikes every 2 days, then we have earthquakes, typhoons, volcano eruption, plane crash (as in SQ006 in year 2000) etc. India not good meh? Mr. Sim, you’ll need to think twice.
Zi Yi’s Mum Mdm. Tan: I was jokingly telling my husband how good it will be if your place is offered to another Chinese. (Damn it, this is so…powerful)
My cousin Lim Jiin Wei: Yahoo!!! You’ll miss my sister’s wedding ceremony. No ang pau!!!
My host sister Stefania Gallo: Taiwan should be a very nice place. I hope to visit there someday. (I’d suggest you start with Malaysia)
Acquintance Mr. Leow Khai: Choose what’s best for you and stay put on it. Don’t mind other people’s comments because the choice is yours and they don’t share your outcome.
Jieyang’s brother Mr. Chong Jiehan: Nowadays we have really weird people around. Just because they got good results they EXPECT to get a scholarship. And if they don’t they’ll fight as if they’re losing their job or wives or husbands.
Primary school friend Mr. Goh Seong Ling: So, nobody lambasted you yet?
Mum’s colleague Mdm-Whoever: Well, my daughter got JPA to go to Aussie. Her deal is good so I won’t say anything, but I agree that 10 years is very long. Still, they become doctors at the end right? At the end of the day they’ll all wear white robes, drink double-thick cappucino and have eye-bags all the time.
Dad’s former art teacher Mr. Tan Chiang Kong: I think TCU is a good place to study, compared to India. And the environment in Taiwan will reduce the amount of culture shock your son would endure. And who cares if he comes back to Malaysia at the end? Life’s so short, we ought to go out of our own shell and explore the world.

Felt like cuddling someone now.
L’Italia vincerai!!!
