The younger folks don't know, but the older folks would know what KLK refers to - the sound of chains clinking. Exactly what you pointed out.

It's not mountain out of molehill when the speech is tailored to boomers who knows very well KLK is derogatory. Just have to be more sensitive.

If I have to refer to Indians in hokkien, I'll say yin tor lang, not KLK coz I know what it means.

Everyone knows Di Siao refers to disturb. But it literally means play sperm which younger folks are less aware vs the boomers would know.

Woah... someone in the crowd shouted at him to move on. Told him to shut up also... 🤬
Politics sometimes really need to be united and 大事化小。I think he could just say it was an honest mistake (but don't use these 2 words if not people link them to pap), gigene has apologized, and let's all learn from her mistake. He talked so much about how he was shocked, it was unacceptable... might do more damage.

In August last year, Mr Ariffin was fined S$8,000 after pleading guilty to defaming KK Women's and Children's Hospital by publishing a woman's false account of a miscarriage.
