Malaysia to Fine Offenders of “Poor Speech”
October 10th, 2006 | Published in general | 9 Comments
In other news, our neighbouring country has decided to fine “offenders who mix Malay and English”, and a special unit will be set up to weed them out. (I’m not making this up.)
Mampos!
1 sen says Singapore will set up a unit to catch Singlish offenders who violate our national language of English and all of us will be the first to be detained. Because Malaysia boleh, we also boleh.

I thought it’s spelt as “mampus”? Do they fine people who spell wrongly too?

Yan Dao: All the Malay I know is from the street, so apparently ‘mampos’, as street Malay, is fine.
budak: haha you’re right…

since our national language is Malay, I would think we should be given some credit for at least mixing it with some English! Hell, i’m hooked to Cinta Q!
