Those forms that got First/Last name, you always put your surname as First or Last?
Chinese by right family name is first name mah. If follow AMDK convention, my name Liu Dehua become Dehua Liu, very stupid leh.
Do you put ur sirname as First or Last?

People usually call you by your first name without addressing your surname mah. So surname put last name loh.

I put full name.

Example
Andy LAU Ah Mau. Lau is family name.

I would put
First name Andy
Last name. Lau Ah Mau

So when it's printed out on air ticket, it shows Andy Lau Ah Mau. Just as my passport says so.

Yes, i am Andy Lau. :D

Liu Mei ling

First name: Mei ling
Last name: Liu
Meiling would be 1 word. If you write them separately, it will be read as,

First name: Mei
Middle name: Ling
Last name: Liu

Middle name would not be used. So your name becomes Mei Liu
