JUST A JOKE ( 1 )

Dear Hokkien-speaking friends,

Dr. Quek made a routine house call to Mr. Lim, one of his elderly patients.
He asks, 'And how are you doing today, Mr. Lim?'

Mr. Lim replies, 'I feel just fine, doc. But you know, it's the
strangest thing.

Every night when I get up to pang jio, the bathroom light goes on for me
automatically when I open the door!'

The doctor is worried that the old man is getting senile, so he
phones the man's son, and the son's wife answers.

The doctor tells her, 'Mrs. Lim, I'm a little concerned about
your father-in-law.

It seems that when he gets up to urinate at night and opens the
bathroom door, the light somehow goes on....'

At which point, Mrs. Lim yells, 'Aiyoh, Ah Seng! Ah Pa pang jio
in the fridge again!'

JUST A JOKE ( 2 )

QUESTION: How do you know frogs are Hokkien? ANSWER : Because when it's cold, they go 'kwah, kwah, kwah'. QUESTION : How do Hokkien prawns laugh? ANSWER: Hae hae hae (Hokkien for prawns) QUESTION: How do Hokkien fish laugh? ANSWER : Hoo hoo hoo (Hokkien for fish)
And here is a classic .........

QUESTION : What's the difference between Ang-mor and Hokkien fairy Tales? ANSWER: Ang-mor fairy tales begin with 'Once upon a time...' and Hokkien fairy tales begin with 'Lim Peh ka li kong...
