Apart from language and joke, the Essence of this speech teaches me u have to do by yourself and learn the skills instead of relying on others.

I do it myself

Lau lee says the ppl listens to hokkien only. But sinkapore hokkien also mixed with teochew liao
Listening to the first speech , sounds to me like he was speaking hokkien words but accent was closer to teochew than hokkien. But I'm not really familiar with either. So maybe I'm not correct

Is hokkien but not to the extent of accuracy like those taiwanese. I go Taiwan speak hokkien but they thought I am speaking teochew. I told them my ancestors from Quan Zhou then they believed I am hokkien
