so like multiple choice just do it just like pass through that get average thing, lowest mark should be like, twenty, twenty out of thirty you should get cause teachers said is like a giveaway mark but then yang section yang lain cause you have essay and all that kind of stuff so that's like the


hard part but then like, we are looking forward like err after finishing exam right, we are like like you said lah this is just semester one it feels like we have been in school for like a long time like we entered like april oh we entered april but like it's it's like we have been in the school for like a year then we still we forgot some if we forget that sometimes like macam how to say


we forget that sometimes it is still we're not ending our first year in december then we are ending our first year like next year april because started in april then now it's just first semester and then sometimes like when we think about it we are like, we have been this school for like so long we have been like in the first semester for so long like we do so much project we did like what five project work and so many


individual task now then you are going to take off our exam then our holiday which is only two weeks we cannot even go tak boleh pergi mana-mana sebab COVID


damn tiring, it's very tiring and I do not, really want to like, continue continue like this for a long period of time I just want to like two weeks break and just like go to sleep, like really let's like spend the day like sleeping I didn't even want to go out I want go out but


so mana nak pergi kalau tak ada duit [kan], so it's just but I just want to sleep, and then like ni then can think about like other stuff, cause like now even now they are preparing us for like poly life they asking us what poly you want to go and I'm just like oh my god we just stay in the first semester why ah why you thinking about poly but then like we have to think about poly cause ultimately some of them don't want to continue this course like you can tell


but they want to tanya you to continue this course like in poly so it's very hard


I think like, I think we're in ITE also same I find it hard working in teams honestly cause like I'm the type that I like to


uh, like cause I there are I've grouped with like ITE there is a lot of like banyak gila is the amount of like group projects right is banyak is like until like every week you tukar group you've just tukar tukar tukar constantly you tukar cause cikgu first of all like


, the reason they give is because sebab apa cikgu nak kita meet, the classmate cause we have a group like forty people, uh, quite a large number of people in one class forty forty one, and then secondly is, uh, how you, work with people they want dia orang nak tengok how


well you work with people and thirdly is like, the different opinions that people have because you are going to be somehow like you my course you are going to, be a teacher you have to work with a lot of different people in the area people cannot speak english people that cannot speak


like, people they want people can only speak chinese then people that can like, speak english or like other ada apa language from overseas then you will be sent overseas that kind of stuff so they want to see how you are, how you


but then I find it very like, even, cause I'm the type that okay just get it over with like when you I don't cause I'm also like very noisy aku macam noisy playful naughty but when I do work I just want to do work that I I realise that's my attitude like when I doing work right I just want to like get it done macam complete ah cepat habis cepat kau pergi relax cepat kau pergi like


like that kind of stuff but then like almost this semester almost like semua my project [kan] is die like hujung hujung last minute submit like eh but eh is good work lah we are able to provide good work but it's still


like, it's better if you can finish earlier [kan] in a sense but then, depends banyak dengan who you work with, honestly like there are people that cannot work together ada like yang they are , people it matters what my friends like girl friend but I cannot work with them like I cannot work with one guy in my classmates name Ima cause he just talk malay cause he macam he's really a perfect


perfectionist like on, point and he has differing thoughts from mine, like where we stand lah, because he is the type of person that think very like, oh he doesn't think outside the box often, he thinks like inside a box like shoot my rules person then I'm not that kind that kind of person somehow I'm the type that I like to talk about it then like I think other ways


is that kind of thing, but then like it's very hard because like, honestly banyak orang cakap ITE is easy in a way it depends they are some courses


like because you can't I think you're other classmates don't do it you're gonna get A you want get high marks just because you did it but in my class is very competitive they're not stupid people you know they are really not stupid people like


there are people who score like eighteen, eighteen nineteen seventeen for O level they end up there just because mostly is because of math cause we are very weak in math and then early childhood pun tak ada mana kau perlu ajar math kau ajar one two three four five under ten pun sudah okay [dah] you are set for life in that career in that sense lah


then after that, some people come into our class thinking that come to ITE thinking that okay this is going to be easy right cause ITE gives a lot of the scholarships, scholarships and more lah a lot of like opportunities for students


but then macam what they never think is that, our class is my class it's very competitive like, really competitive you know like the other type that macam every lesson ada soalan every lesson ada soalan every lesson ada like macam oh


sorry to say but melayu more relax lah


like a lot of the things we learn like more like less, , more slower in a sense kita boleh more slow but, even that for even for me that is very hard cause like to adapt, to being in like uh


like secondary school, because I'm used to like I'm the type of person like in secondary school macam aku dah fail fail fail fail fail lepas tu bila kat the end aku macam okay pass macam I made it jelita [bah] cause I I do set expectation that are high, but, at the end I produce like good results but then now like


I aku rasa macam very like less freedom cause like continuously like okay everyday I have assignments submit by this submit by that submit by this like even though like I have more assignments than some of my even poly friends like they are more chill they relax actually


it will be like very like easy right, but anyway I was inside already like first two weeks first week of school it kill me like okay because no orientation because you straight go into our assignment which drove me like crazy I was like okay I need to find a kid I need to find a kid takkan tell me budak tapi tak nak observe budak tu lepas tu I nak tanya write report pasal budak tu then I'm just like oh my god I cannot do this


I'm like then my friend is from early childhood poly then she is like, uh, but dia orang ingat like macam ni senang cause kau jaga budak [jer] [pe] kau jaga budak kau budak tu mak dia tinggalkan budak tu kat kau habis kau jaga jaga but actually, we watch how the budak grow


like how he is doing cause sometimes cikgu yang responsible for like the early childhood of the child the more the responsible is to see if there's a problem with your child developmental wise cause by certain age, like you know we grow up right we grow up knowing nothing then kita okay just besar macam okay lah by this age dah cakap actually there's a


guidelines for how certain age you're supposed to like talk by what age you are supposed to talk by what age you need to walk then that kind of stuff but we have to memorize that kind of stuff then we talk about the brain like temporal frontal lobe, the parietal lobe then I'm just like oh okay then was like in unit what unit six that we learn about that kind of stuff and then when I look back I'm just like


oh my god, oh I look back my slides right I'm learning ah I'm like tengah revise [jer] aku macam apa yang aku tengah belajar ni apa kena mengena ni dengan budak-budak and we revise okay that's actually link kita belajar pasal brain then kita faham okay which budak pakai which part of the brain when they are doing this budak pakai then we are just like oh my god we are just learning like


same things as like a normal teacher do like all all is linked somehow then it becomes like, when you realise that how hard, that this is gonna be right cause from the, seniors mereka cakap from the first year


then it's obviously kau dah tahu like you are like, damn, this is gonna be hard and then ah I'm like I'm not even in poly that's the thing


some people even like masuk early childhood they don't even like kids that much cause it's just early childhood is how macam early childhood has, not a lot of paths for you to go, so end up you jadi cikgu atau jadi principal more of that but then


it it is a very stable job cause obviously that job is not gonna that job cannot be taken by robots that kind of stuff so it is a very stable job everybody's gonna like end up like being a teacher so macam that stability is what people want in life [kan]


you know that, for the next few years kau ada job untuk dapatkan they focus on that then a lot of my classmates they want to go university there are already thinking even up when they start thinking okay aku nak pergi uni from my mind is like okay I know I'm in ITE but do you want to go to uni


or you want to sign contract with NIEC and just work for a few months, uh for a few years and like, I want to I don't know initially memang aku nak baca psychology, cause that's what I want to learn what since my points didn't get me to achieve that but then now that I have the opportunity [kan] I just want to go for like child psychology


that how a child thinks it can further my career in a sense but it's also what I'm interested in but I haven't decide macam belum decide kalau aku nak kerja ke atau aku nak sekolah macam I'll pass macam how to say ah, I don't know somehow like girls are better at planning their paths


like I is no shade to guys there's not shade but we think about the future a lot which is like overthinking lah we think about the future a lot but like okay is this gonna be like, a smooth journey what am I going to do next like the thing won't even come don't even bother and I'm thinking about uni I know that I want to go to


poly obviously I aku tak nak just stop at ITE like I want to learn more there's a lot more things that I can learn at poly I know that and then, my friend said that in every like I was macam very when dapat pergi ITE [kan] you are very saddened at the fact that you go ITE cause when your end goal is poly but then my friends said that apa tu once in your lifetime you must experience ITE life


cause it's a very even on twitter you are like ah you guys look down on ITE but then like you must experience that ITE cause it's fun it's really like fun it's like secondary school but upgrade, cause now people are more mature so like less drama and just small fun and then you get along with everybody everybody is like


like everybody like is that kind of stuff and you will have a lot of things do but sekarang COVID so kita tak ada buat semua tu tapi we still have like, like just a few week days ago last week we like before our exam like our teacher brought like some snacks and she brought she bawa nintendo switch [jer] pergi class ah semua orang main just dance is like that kind of thing


you know it's very fun but then like obviously now, all of us want to go poly semua nak pergi poly kita punya ultimate goal is poly, cause first of all we never when teacher first cause when you first enter ITE [kan]


what do you want what is your achieve what do you want to achieve, and where is your next step that is what, they asked and like we go around the room, then like I think about like ninety percent not hundred percent said they want to go poly and then you see okay #ngee ann# Temasek #ngee ann# Temasek that kind of stuff [bah] banyak orang cakap dia nak pergi twenty percent want to pursue uni psychology


so like we already we all have our own end goal this is where we stop that kind of stuff, when you go uni you fighting with JC JC secure spot obviously they are clever people then you fighting if with poly which is clever people you don't know who yet there is no saying that ITE is not clever but we are slower in learning pace


I cannot do this aku tak boleh aku tak boleh aku nak focus like I not everybody when like it's my assignment I just like do my work, that kind of stuff I think, I I realise at certain point if ITE is this hard, how am I supposed to adapt into poly I mean the transition macam I think itu yang susah transitions to secondary and tertiary life cause it's


totally opposite cause in kat ah secondary school all these are the teacher untuk guide kau like okay kau nak buat ni kau nak buat ni okay kau nak submit [kan] ni kau nak submit [kan] tu in ITE kalau kau tak nak submit cikgu macam eh kenapa kau tak buat submit, ah kau nak submit tau next time tapi dia dia orang tak remind kau they don't remind you they didn't like teach you everything in that okay ada exam make sure belajar tu [jer] aku macam what the hell aku macam come on man like


that is the shock and then I think, go to poly after ITE, cause kalau kau dah badly adapt poly right kenapa tu ITE like you kau tak macam you cannot get used to


ITE, it's gonna be hard in poly cause poly is more like tough, ITE also I think everyday every thursday is our presentation day every thursday then now change every day like every assignment like macam cikgu ajar one chapter okay by next by tomorrow submit your slides then by this day we gonna present


then we just one person do then everybody speak out like now my group has become like usually we it's a group work but now it's like I do the slide and I just separate the part


I cannot I think that's the thing I need sufficient time to study I'm the I'm a very slow learner lah macam you have to admit I'm a very slow learner I'm good at language language macam mother tongue


language I am okay with it but I'm more to english in a sense cause, in early childhood if you get at least a, if you get C five right you have to retake, your english you need to at least get a B somehow because language is very important macam but then now they are making like macam oh mother tongue punya base preschool semua [kan] but it's still english very important


cause like at one point you realise that a lot of your learning is due to rephrase the words macam there are some things about ah what we learn about like theory psycho analytic theory this kind of stuff is where there's ID super ego and then like ego that kind of stuff is where we learn how like you know like there's macam kat movie


like macam devil and angel right that's like a real theory and then we learn okay how it affects children, like ego is what, like ID is like macam evil not evil lah


serious susah bila aku kat muka sekarang kadang-kadang hujung just tidur I cannot take it aku macam kelas pukul lapan we start at eight and we finish at five and it's back to back classes I don't have a lot of breaks in my class how could I text I don't have a lot of breaks


then you get very tired get very tired and you there's more information that can go inside your brain then when you go back home right you macam I think the, good thing about I don't want to say good thing about COVID it but the great thing about online learning is you record a lot or your lecture


then but I still there was assignment given at the end of your lesson then I was like, okay now I have to do assignment but I didn't learn anything cause I uh sleeping, then there always there's someone in the class that always record and send it to the group so that's a good things so aku tengok balik recording okay macam okay now we have to mix and match that kind of stuff macam keeping balik cause it's very hard to concentrate online class


it's no matter how like late your class is right I just sleeping is like more better like kau tidur jeng kau nak nanti kau bangun kau cakap okay fine, it's a good day but then it's like, it's just seriously hard oh you know macam now is, eighteen it's not such a young age but it's not such a old age either it's in the middle there at least eh there are people that want to get married you know marriage is like (ugh)


older and more responsibility in a sense, now like macam honestly okay at eighteen right ah when I turn eighteen of my birthday I did a video call with my friends


and then ah one of, I have a older friend right Aqilah [kan] a year older then dia she tell me macam tegur aku lah, at eighteen you find out a lot about yourself, what kind of person you are yourself discovery journey is eighteen what kind of person you are what


who is your real friends who is your friends and who is just your acquaintance these three groups of people, cause biasalah cause in like in religious terms we cannot cut out anybody but still


and then she say then you realise are you a relationship person or are you not, like how are you coping with your relationship it cause like, and eighteen [kan] kau obviously kawan kau bukan semua ada boyfriends [kan] sekarang [jer] [kan] oh ajak kawan ada they're going out dia orang keluar kat boyfriend dia orang lepas tu dia orang go to the beach even kat COVID COVID ni dia orang text sahaja it's just like (ugh) I want that I want that but there's no one to have that with but I want that


then like it's how you deal with that situation macam okay kau nak boyfriend tapi kau tak dapat kau nak buat apa are you gonna be like sad but I mean now I I don't know I'm not sad I'm more like okay lah kau tak ada boyfriend


my close friend lah macam kau aqilah megan they prioritise studying over anything else they prioritise like how to say like or guys studies


I would choose studies lah if a guy said I want you to stay home when you get wraps up, no I'm not marrying you uh I want to like I want to have like education I want to work I want to travel the world, that kind of stuff and then the I realise maybe Hada you know she has macam ada boyfriend sekarang [kan]


she, don't cause she wants she said after she graduated ah she want to take one year break, just, she want to take one year break then I'm like that's a long time bro one year of your life what you gonna do but then I also respect, cause taking a break is something that


takes a lot of decision tau cause kau one year kau nak pergi mana kawan kau semua nak moving along with your life what dia orang tengah kerja dia orang tengah belajar dia orang tengah getting uh upgrading yourself in a way lah then kau nak you won't have a lot of people to spend time with you


NAFA is poly after she finish NAFA she graduate


she can work she is basically a college, it's different ke US so it's college lah so she can work after NAFA but she wants take a break, [kan], you know you can join us you know cause you know what megan me and Aqil are going there for


err early childhood cause their programme that early childhood is very strong and then megan is going there for science like food science I think you can go there then we can all get a, apartment stay together it's gonna be so much fun but Hada don't want to go


she she doesn't kita tak nak how to say dia nak take a break dia tak nak continue belajar cause I don't think she prioritise, studying a lot, she more prioritise experience and I kind of understand that


, there's no right or wrong, in a sense there's no right or wrong but it's just that there's people more like


we we are scared to admit but ya we are we we would choose our education over guys kita macam okay kita macam single sedih [kan] cause sedih tak ada boyfriend, if a guy tells me that my biggest turn off in a guy [kan] is bila dia bilang aku [jer] tau dia tak tahu apa nak buat into the future


I don't like aku macam god you need a plan dude you plan your life you need, to get a job you need to like come on like dia nak kena get dia life straight I like I find guys like macam tahu what they are doing in life right very attractive first


you don't want them who struggle in a sense, ya I feel, (mmhmm) it's like


there's no such thing as no free no care like to me in singapore right your education really somehow determine


who you are in life you know macam eh sekarang ni school decision aku selalu cakap tau oh tapi some people doesn't mean determine who we are who you are oh I'm like, that's that's total like, ya that's total like a lie like we all know it determines who we are as a I'm always like every


year right at the end of every year right, like cause my okay my my parents in a sense they don't really macam put pressure sometimes they do but I kind of understand but top that, I can understand why they put pressure cause we talk, and then but the but then macam to me [kan] the


so at the end of day [kan] I'm scared of the disappointing myself you know because macam kau already, like like


plans like of like timeline I have a timeline of my life what I want to accomplish like I don't have my dad already set by twenty five then can bring back home guy, bring back home you don't get married you know bring back home guy so I have like (ugh) and then now what another like


nineteen twenty twenty one twenty two twenty three twenty four twenty five, seven years to find my one but then like I don't focus on that, like cause now


the crying no non-stop, that kind of thing, the cry non-stop right then but then, to me I don't know in a sense right


like okay I want, a boyfriend but then


somehow, when I realise can, like how to say ah


single is fun but after two months they're like oh my god I can't believe you have been single for two years then aku macam aku tak nak [kan] saya lelaki aku macam ah you know macam my life has been fun all this while


I feel like even if kalau aku dalam relationship [kan] I would take it very slow, I'll be like you focus on your life I focus on my life


we'll see where it goes lah, cause obviously aku nak date for long term, I mean like, even with my ex I didn't know you know despite all the off and ons right we dated for like what, two years two years and half like that's a long time, like that's a pretty long time lah but then like then you realise at the end already right


how I am, most of last most of my last time my ITE friends ada contact [kan] can go back with aku akan text macam balik punya eh ya aku balik macam but then when ah I go back home alone, I feel fine apa I feel like okay I'm fine I can sleep bro tak ada tak ada orang cakap dengan aku aku [jer] tidur [jer] janganlah aku tidur aku boleh tengok tiktok like the whole way home I'm just watching like tiktok and nobody disturb me


like worried keluar dengan kawan lelaki boyfriend aku macam marah eh kenapa keluar dengan lelaki like I can be friends with whoever I want like literally like no doubt you are free but in a sense bila kau dah free for too long


you have a lot of happiness in you, because my friends say you number one when you break up eh, first of all you learn to love yourself back kenapa macam cause girls highly like not just girls even boys sometimes bila dia orang break up eh dia orang kena dump they think that macam somehow ah what's wrong with me berapa muka soalan kau [kan] Tang is like kenapa aku then you have to over that


like time where you like okay aku ni okay actually it's just everyone around me that's shit, like that's not good, it's but ah then you get get okay can be there then you just like I'm fine I'm the greatest person then you, spend that that days like okay I'm actually that good and you focus on yourself


that's what I've been doing for the past like two years I think I beat up a lot of myself I'm like the, like I think this year, changed me a lot, somehow COVID [kan], I now I know like who I want to be friends with


like during this period of time now I know who I want to be close with like I have you I have like the other girls I have like even Raziq sometime although he's gone most of the time I try to understand cause you never know what's going in a, person's life like there is a lot of things that


I would say that the start the twenty twenty the start of twenty twenty january Imelda is different from, september Imelda now in the sense cause I'm more like, okay because I feel like I've been like living my life


you know that kind of thing, then bila now I'm thinking like at the end of the day kau seorang [jer] during this pandemic I spend a lot of time [jer] I think I spend the most time with you during the pandemic


we talk a lot less spend then second most is like with the girls the other girls then third is Raziq, like I is mostly because I spend a lot of time with family and that's the best thing you know cause they can, like bila aku dengar anything I have this habit of like using my phone even when with my family cause aku just nak text all the time then sekarang macam I like brother and my sister they were sick ah what earlier this year so when they go out they always don't want to be ask like


family is important to me macam I think because I grew up, me and my siblings grew up separately so we all came together [kan] kita macam really emphasise my dad my dad really like, appreciates family time a lot like he really loves I think when I was in sec actually ah I hangout a lot with my friends like sec four I can talk a lot with them


then I realise like how, anytime boleh end


checks up on our like, uh she checks up on like our locations, then she check up on our like, uh, location ah phone kita like she can switch off she can like switch off our phone


like with with her phone she can switch off our phone like time in time out but then like, but then like but the way you have to install it cause she recommended my mum have a best friend right she recommend it to her friend but her friend was not happy her friend was like kenapa kau nak lock phone aku macam that kind of vibe you know then bila kita the way my mum install it on our phone right


my mum just macam how to say, my mum just like ah give me touch you punya phone, then kita kena bagi like my siblings just like macam uh tanya like they never ask


then my brother my brother would ask a lot of question, but then we will give and she just download it and she just install it we didn't even know


and then macam kita dapat balik kita macam okay and lepas tu she lock our phone like at certain times and when we want to download stuff you have to ask her that was in sec five you know cause it was last year


I don't ever feel personally I don't feel angry, cause like and macam kalau you


that app [kan] kalau kau pakai more than eight hours [kan] dia orang lock kau punya phone tu kau tak boleh buka so maximum is eight hours I've never gotten my phone lock cause aku sahaja I spend a lot of time with my family and my friends, I spend tak tau it charge charge semua pasal kita just macam bond banyak-banyak bond


in a sense lah, so macam aku I never had that problem, cause, naturally now [kan] kita spend a lot of time together a lot kita tak on the phone kita macam I say to my mum


ah, we just like uh, uh like at eight PM after my that eight PM eh like all on my apa dia off day kita just duduk habis kita tengok harry potter like kami pun tu nangis nangis hujung gila pun macam kau orang mati macam it's that kind of vibe you know then macam but when I spend a lot of time with cousins [kan] I realise that their families are different


okay aku dah besar [pe] okay like now what eighteen, cause


my brother always want blue then my dad want black but we'll always decide okay satu colour [jer], then we buy like same colour and it same with macam makan tau like it's like puasa right we all like put


with other people and aku realise like I'm lucky in a sense that way cause my family is very close


but ah same to me ah


cause is I think my family is like that you know then you know the one good thing is we don't hide anything from each other, naturally when I had boyfriend I tell my mum and my dad actually they don't,


but they are like they advise you need to understand they my mum always told me my mum always cakap why do you want to have a boyfriend you are so much more you want accomplish why do you want to be tied down, that kind of stuff cause the guys that I date tie me down, a lot so macam my mum is like don't want do that then I just talk to them freely like if I have even friends' problem I talk to my mum very freely I talk to my dad then my dad give me advice even education like macam every time I'm moving on to another school or another part of my life I always I always discuss with them I'm I want to do this


face


so <tamil>இன்னொன்னு பாத்திங்கன்னா அந்த:innonu paathinganaa antha</tamil> bigg boss lah <tamil>நா ஒரு இத முதல்ல இருந்து:naa oru itha muthalla irunthu</tamil> err


err <tamil>அடுத்த கட்டமுனும் ஒன்னு இருக்குது:adutha kattamunum onnu irukuthu</tamil> so, ah


K,


and secondly it's about a game process in the end, which is a game that a person wins a few hundred or lakhs or whatever they say, they win and then they get the fame they get everything after that following, so in that case the game where people use different strategies on how they want to play and move forward in the game


for example they will be quiet for the first whole fifty days of the part journey in that in that bigg boss house, and then the next fifty days their whole character will change and uh they will start to being aggressive, and sometimes people like that


we will like categorise ourselves into different characters, and then we will be actually doing a skit or a drama based on that


people like us outside to even do something like drama


or people a lot of people have done like , TikToks and all these kinds of thing based on uh bigg boss and they do short films


monica <tamil>இப்படி இருக்காங்க பத்தியா அப்படினு வந்து பேசக்கூடிய ஒரு இதுவா தான் இருக்கு அதுவும்:ippadi irukkaanga patthiyaa appadinnu vanthu pesakuudiya oru ithuvaa thaan irukku athuvum</tamil> , ah <tamil>இணையதளம்: inaiyathalam</tamil> like YouTube Instagram Facebook even there, a lot of medias are actually focusing on bigg boss right now


they call two people two husband and wife couple who are actually , ah who are actually uh actors in Vijay TV itself they call them, and then they ask them to predict the show, what's happening and comment whatever that they are feeling in that show


this is something famous that's happening because, they are using a two celebrity like


and <tamil>அதையும் தாண்டி இந்த போன:athaiyum taandi intha pona</tamil> season <tamil>கான:kaana</tamil> , uh <tamil>போன:poona</tamil> season leh <tamil>இருந்த:iruntha</tamil> uh


attention <tamil>ஒரு:oru</tamil> public <tamil>ஓட:oda</tamil> attention <tamil>வந்து நல்லா:vanthu nallaa</tamil> grab <tamil>பண்ணுறாங்க அப்படின்னு வந்து தோணுது:pannuraanga appadinnu vanthu thonodu</tamil> for example, even commoners what video they usually do is


it's like oh what would I do if I'm in bigg boss house, ah then they imitate people which is very very basically what I'm trying to say it's very entertaining there, and even like <tamil>நீங்க சொன்னீங்க:neenga soneenga</tamil> you don't have big interest but you actually started following bigg boss


so you can see how much of ah actually attention seeking is bigg boss is because, they bring in that much of things in there


they might be just be just talking normally and they might just tell you something that's wrong with you straight to your face


they will just tell you oh this is this wrong, the person that they take it the way that they take it will be different


uh <tamil>ரொம்ப ஆச்சரியமா இருந்துருக்கேன்:romba aaccariyamaa irunturukkaen</tamil> !wow!


it's not easy and then connecting all the characters at one point of time is also not easy in definitely a movie, they are just so versatile so different actually


all the ten different characters, so when when I think about it !wow! if you need to prepare for, ten different characters in ten different ways, need to put on all the makeup


then they have to also know the scientific terms facts to that character


then to be that the for example the policeman the policeman had a different slang, so he has to cover that slang as well it wasn't that easy


and it seems <tamil>ரொம்ப:romba</tamil> fast ah <tamil>போது:apodhu</tamil> they just captures your attention and it goes, but behind the scenes will definitely not have been , so easy for anyone there, ya


like the stunts that he do


because <tamil>அந்த படத்துல வந்து:antha padatthula vanthu</tamil> he's hero and he's the villain also, so, so twins ah <tamil>இருக்கும் போது:irrukum poothu</tamil> there are actually heroes, but


standing at the opposite opposition is not easy you are the hero and you are the villain, as you have to fight opposite it's not easy to show it in the screen


definitely I agree on that that we need to, like for example ah my area of expertise that I'm gonna work in the future is definitely not going to be film making maybe it can be, but for now as I of now I know, I'm not definitely gonna take my place in film making but I'm interested in it doing right now with my friends and just having fun with them


so <tamil>அப்படி இருக்கும் போது:appadi irrukum pothu</tamil> the experience that I get, in that being a producer of a short film, and trying to get people to coordinate and work together, it's something that I learnt and I will take it wherever I go depending on whatever career that I choose to go in the future


ah the experience that I get there, they are your friend or they you know them they have helped you a lot


you have to make decisions to move forward, and achieve something you have to, challenge yourself <tamil>அப்படின்னு நான் புரிஞ்சுகிட்டேன்:appadinnu naan purinchukittaen</tamil> for example in your short film, and stuff like that what I understood was that, if I'm just gonna stuck in a place that oh <tamil>எனக்கு இது மட்டும் தான் தெரியும்:enakku ithu mattum thaan theriyum</tamil> I'm constricting myself that


I only know this part much of content and I'm only going to do this much of content, I learnt that I will never move forward in my life, from that circle of content that I know, if I want to learn more I have to challenge myself, to do something that is bigger


and something that that may be can be even unimaginable, but if I'm able to put it together and achieve that thing, it is something that is really very , unique, and <tamil>அப்படி நீங்க வந்து:appadi neenga vanthu</tamil> if when you push yourself and challenge yourself to bring you bring you there


or else if I want to continue my career in my film making since I'm actually good at it I will also take a look


life what is survival what is life and death, season


so uh season ah three season one was something that was very new, because we don't no one knew what bigg boss was about so it was very new, and then season two was something that how to say the actors, they they were actually quite like how to say they were just fighting fighting fighting nonstop without any reason even


season three was something that got to do the the people there was like very genuinely like, for example sandy was there Mugen Mugen from singapore uh malaysia


was there uh Losliya then there was Tharshan there was Kavin, there was a ah <tamil>இந்த மாரி ஒரு:intha maari oru</tamil> few people <tamil>இருந்தாங்க:irunthaanga</tamil> they were just, jamming out of nowhere they will they were creating songs uh on their own whenever they had free time


I relate to it because, it's something that I do in my school like when I go to just to go to school


like toilet lah <tamil>வந்து அவங்க இதுல வந்து:vanthu avanga ithula vanthu</tamil>


table then we will have chair, so <tamil>அதுல வந்து அடிச்சுathula vanthu adichu</tamil> drums we have drums <tamil>அடிப்பாங்க ஒருத்தவங்க:adippaanga oruthavanga</tamil> and <tamil>எங்க:enga</tamil> school lah <tamil>வந்து:vanthu</tamil> we have something like, a room a room that allows us to use drums piano everything to just jam it's called jamming studio


so we go there and jam but the jamming of just using the drums table cups, so whenever we see them they will sitting in the toilet and then they will be just talking and then they will be just creating song out of nowhere and then they will be drumming


someone will be strumming and then they will be just singing, so it's like fun moments and then it allows them to be themselves, and they will be doing like uh Vanitha <tamil>வந்து:vanthu</tamil> dubbing <tamil>பண்ணி காட்டலாம் அப்படின்னு சொல்லிட்டு வெளியில வந்து:panni kaattalaam appadinnu sollittu veliyila vanthu</tamil> the five people will be sitting, they are youngsters so they will be sitting outside five people


and then inside people will be like doing something talking and fighting, these people from outside they will be like, I will do dubbing for them <tamil>அப்படின்னு சொல்லிட்டு உள்ள என்ன நடக்குதுன்னு அங்க சத்தியமா தெரியாது:appadinnu sollittu ulla enna nadakkuthunnu anga sathiyamaa theriyaathu</tamil> but <tamil>வெளியல இருந்து:veliyila irunthu</tamil> dubbing <tamil>பண்ணிட்டு இருப்பாங்க:pannittu iruppaanga</tamil> from what they can see, so that's something that was really fun and then they really bond and they do certain things together


so so people say the best season because of them because it was really very fun the way that they worked, they had a lot of fights as well like Vanitha and stuff like that and there was #meera mithun#, but they will also they also know when they are supposed to be united


so <tamil>அந்த விதத்துல:antha vithathula</tamil> I like season three also was season that kept us moving and grooving, and in the sense in the audience view also they captured by that by this statement called corner corner ties corner


<tamil>அது எல்லாருக்கும்:athu ellaarukkum</tamil> you mean the cultural difference between malaysia and india is it


because it's actually a show that people choose the winner, so people has vote for them


so whoever the people vote are the winner in the end end of the day, so <tamil>அப்படிந்தான் சொல்லி வந்து இந்த:appadinthaan solli vanthu intha</tamil> show <tamil>நடந்துட்டு இருக்கு:nadanthuttu irukku</tamil> so every season the people will choose the winner, so in that case actually Mugen won a lot of votes and it was actually


it's a malaysia and it's india so uh different countries


in the show mainly it's catered for tamil Nadu uh audience, so but there's a lot of people ah even uh USA people watch it UK singapore canada everyone watches it, but it's mainly catered for tamil Nadu


audience <tamil>அப்படி இருக்கும் போது:appadi irukkum pothu</tamil> the warm welcome and the support that people gave for a malaysian , malaysian uh born person and it was really very sweet of them, in that sense that people accept a person for who they are


the people supported him because, he was a person he just he just, he was himself <tamil>அதுதான்:athuthaan</tamil> main <tamil>விஷயம்னு வந்து தோனிச்சு:vishayamnu vanthu thonichu</tamil> because


but what people saw was, he had a reason for being such that much of aggressive and, stuff like that he had his own reasons for acting that way


hindi lah <tamil>லாம்:laam</tamil> bigg boss <tamil>வந்து ஒரு:vanthu oru</tamil> ten seasons ah actually <tamil>ஓடிக்கிட்டு இருக்கு:odikkittu irukku</tamil> so tamil


full and full we will be focused into teaching and, uh learning, together with the students in that sense that we are also learning


and we are also nuturing a group of students down there, focus on teaching them and nuturing them because we are responsible for them, I really liked that line and and that's why I feel tamil teaching is really uh teaching in in that sense teaching itself is very very great


it's just so nice to be a part of that and to uh uh aspire, people to grow for example, teachers they actually nuture people to become a thousands of uh uh


occupations and aspirations that they have, for example when I went for my first attachment programme there was this uh boy who told me that he actually wanted to become, a pilot, and, that was really a inspiring for me because as a teacher someone


my one of my students wants to become a pilot and I'll and I'll be seeing them as a pilot in the future it's, it's something that will give me happiness out of


yes <tamil>கண்டிப்பா வந்து இன்னொருத்தவன்களுடைய:kandippaa vanthu innoruthavangaludaiya</tamil> life ah <tamil>வந்து:vanthu</tamil> touch <tamil>பண்றது:pandrathu</tamil> it's not easy, but when when we are doing it it's one of the best thing I think that you could ever get in your life


and <tamil>நீங்க:neenga</tamil> bigg boss ah <tamil>பார்தீங்கனா:partheenganaa</tamil> there will be this very very interesting task there


in the next few weeks <tamil>கொண்டு வருவாங்க:kondu varuvaanga</tamil> where they will teach Thirukkural, like the they will do the role play kind of


learn Thirukkural they must learn Aathichoodi they must learn a tamil song, like you know <tamil>அந்த மாரி வந்து சொல்லி கொடுக்கும் போது நீங்க பார்த்தீங்கனா:antha maari vanthu solli kodukkum pothu neenga partheenganaa</tamil> bigg boss lah <tamil>இருந்து கூட:irunthu kooda</tamil> you can learn Thirukkural and Aathichoodi, and the way that they do it would be actually very different for example season one lah <tamil>வந்து:vanthu</tamil> Oviya <tamil>வந்து ஒரு திருக்குரல கத்துக்கும் போது:vanthu oru thirukkurala kathukkum pothu</tamil>


she made it like a rap kind of song which actually inspired a lot of people to even remember the Thirukkural and stuff


it will be very unique and very nice, ya


I mean ya lah like teachers and counsellors like they are very similar kind of thing, but definitely like teachers won't be like a certified counsellor or what, but they will get the chance to like help some students who are actually facing some emotional problems so they can come and talk to teachers always they will say


so <tamil>அப்படி சொல்லும் போது:appadi sollum pothu</tamil> teacher will definitely like try to uh console and uh


make sure that you are alright and they will try to find a solution for you to come out of the situation at the best


inspiration yes,


and ya that's why I feel and people


like so many can come and go and people those people are staying it's quite less, but those poeple who actually make a impact on your life would be actually a lot of people


and uh <tamil>அதுக்கு மேல வந்து:athukku mela vanthu</tamil> <tamil>பத்து வருஷம் நம்ம வந்து:pathu varusham namma vanthu</tamil> , so like fifteen years of our life will be a school where we are filled with teachers so it's really very


inspiring and important about that in that sense lah


(mmhmm) , yes that was a good start actually after all the hard work and the delays and whatever err getting it launched err was err something that was a positive start


to our newsletter, so , right now we are working on the second issue so , there are like thirty two pages of text and information probably we can have it all err out by another week or two


yes right, yes yes yes


right right okay okay


right, okay over this week right I'm trying to get Sachi to help me to print hardcopy of the thirty two pages so by this week saturday I will just spend to look through again in the err not the digital form by in the hardcopy form to be double sure that everything is


what do you think okay alright, okay okay sure


okay, right , okay


okay, okay okay sure I'm fine three yes


okay, , okay sure


okay because if too small that's why I was wondering if it is reduced is it readible but okay some news have to go in the minimal, okay


okay alright , yes digital that that that's the the good part of it because we're not going so much for the hardcopy so with the PDF they can enlarge it or see it on the laptop or open computer to if they want to see the bigger version of the news yes I think that would be good


yes yes,


, okay, okay


okay


okay okay, okay


, okay posting it


okay, , thank you thank you

, yes


right , yes I am catching up with you I'm trying to run and catch up yes


, how old is he err, thirties now okay because he okay


okay, ,


okay,


okay , right


okay professor currently what happen is with the COVID we couldn't hold enough meeting, so all have been just like over the phone <tamil>நான் கொஞ்சம் அவங்க கிட்ட சொல்லுவேன் அவங்க புரிஞ்சிக்கிட்டாங்க:naan koncham avanga kitta solluvaen avanga purinjikittaanga</tamil> then I follow up and then they come back to me so err recent weeks I have like call them back again to do some updates so like today also one of the team updated ask them confirm how many percentage of the writing they have comments


err on the personal day call <tamil>பண்ணா:pannaa</tamil> medical <tamil>இல்ல இருக்கேன் ஒரு இரண்டு வாரம் கழித்து அடியுங்க அந்த மாதிரி:illa irukaen oru irandu vaaram kalithu adiyunga antha maathiri</tamil> they have given reasons for not being able to give


so that this part of it is just the another fifty odd people okay but then you were saying some of them like Lakshmana he will confirm gave like ah #se pa paneerselvam# will do the nine pieces confirmed by him then err


out of the sixty, oh okay


okay, yes, yes right yes


okay right


right original list ya yes, , okay by the way Jalgiyar the GMT jeweler <tamil>உள்ளவர் அவரை பற்றி:ullavar avarai patri</tamil> Maha propose <tamil>பண்ணிருந்தாங்க எழுதறதுக்கு:pannirthaanga elutharuthukku</tamil> err but err I told her <tamil>அவரு என்ன செய்ஞ்சாருன்னு முதல ஒரு:avaru enna senjaarunnu muthala oru</tamil> trial run


right the the but the last time I spoke to you you said , err first let's find out what was his contribution, yes , so I have to get back to Marhad to say okay Jahangir is okay he's a a potential a person so I'll ask her to continue okay so Jahangir will be in and few other names


yes, exactly that's what ya so that's what #se pa panneerselvam# said


okay, okay so err I'll be calling err like say #se pa paneerselvam# maybe err saturday saturday <tamil>அவங்ககிட்ட பேசுறப்போ:avangakutta pesurappo</tamil> I will tell him GR money he will do err #chithambaram chettiar# may be taken by err Subramanium if he can do it


then rather I will tell him and finish it, because he has more information because he has collected some things from him so I don't want to stop him and suddenly take it away


no date of birth and no date of death yes yes, ya so I think now after working with our project err #se pa paneerselvam# <tamil>அவருக்கு தெரிது:avarukku therithu</tamil> where is the gap


so <tamil>அவரு சொல்லிருக்காரு:avaru sollirukaaru</tamil> he will try to fill that in some of the thing his writing is not completed because he's only waiting for those two dates once it's in his writing is completed so <tamil>அந்த அந்த:antha antha</tamil> body part lah <tamil>அவர் முடிச்சு வைச்சுட்டாரு:avar mudichu vaichuttaaru</tamil> so he's just waiting for the important data he'll put it in and he'll submit so a few of those ah KIV cases


are similar so uh he said he will work on it and get back to us, so the others err those err those given by


but some of them are busy or waiting for confirmation so <tamil>அது வந்ததுன்னா:athu vanthathunnaa</tamil> it will be in so err all in I think with the two hundred over hundred seventy hundred eighty can be in, the others we still need writers <tamil>ஆளு வேணும் இல்லைனா நம்ம போன தடவை செய்ஞ்ச மாதிரி புத்தகங்கள் கிட்ட உள்ள இருக்குன்னு சொன்னிங்க இல்லையா:aalu vaenum illainaa namma pona thadavai seynja maathiri putthaganal kitta ulla irukkunnu sonninga illaiyaa</tamil> we may have to take from there and then we write it up


okay , right right okay right right


right, ,


okay, now that we are at err mid october right the writing <tamil>இப்போ அந்த:ippo antha</tamil> project <tamil>பண்ணிட்டு:pannittu</tamil> because we're not going to print it like the first volume and and run for the date so <tamil>நம்ம:namma</tamil> target is it going to be like launch it in february march <tamil>அந்த:antha</tamil> date ah


april yes okay


okay okay


so yes yes ya


ah <tamil>அதுக்கு என்ன முதல:athukku enna</tamil> #M K nayar# wife ah <tamil>எனக்கு தெரியும்மா எல்லா எல்லா செஞ்சிருவோம் அப்படி அப்படின்னு சொன்னாங்க:enakku theryummaa ellaa ellaa senjiruvom appadi appadinnu sonnaanga</tamil> then later she say <tamil>இல்லை என் தங்கைச்சிக்கு நல்லா தெரியும் அவங்கள்ட்ட நான்:illai en thangaichikku nallaa theriyum avngaltta naan</tamil> introduce <tamil>பண்றேன்ன்னு:pandraennu</tamil> so when I called she told me <tamil>ஒரு இரண்டு மூன்று நாள் கழிச்சி:oru irandu moondru naal kalichi</tamil> you yourself call because she can't remember my name or where she writes because she also got a bit memory lapse


so I may have to get it from the sister and err meet up, one of the place then the art people dancers <tamil>இருக்காங்க இல்ல:irukkaanga illa</tamil> Balakrishnan charles and everybody I may have to arrange one meeting either at my place or go to charles's house get them to come so I do two interview at one time so <tamil>அவங்ககிட்ட பேசி உடனே இது பண்ணிட்டு:avangakitta pesi udanae ithu pannittu</tamil> record <tamil>பண்ணிட்டு:pannittu</tamil> then I will have to do two


okay okay,


no not the workers ah <tamil>இருக்காது:irukkaathu</tamil> he has friends friends <tamil>இருக்காங்க இல்ல அந்த:irukaanga illa antha</tamil> media <tamil>அந்த:antha</tamil> #selva anand# <tamil>அந்த:antha</tamil> group lah, okay, okay no err I will talk to charles first, because okay


he's a good cook I will have to figure an arrangement to go to his house and I will go yes, ya that's that's another workable solution so I'll find out when mister Balakrishnan can go to his place and and then probably I'll go there I will have to do the project at at his hand which is more err easier for him err but that events all will have to happen


during weekday or saturday because sunday his house, he will have unannounced visitors going to the house there's twice, ya


no because there were times when we call we said we want to come he will say please don't come because there are others, male guests predominantly and he don't want us to come so he will tell me <tamil>இல்லை:illai</tamil> not nice to come <tamil>இன்னைக்கு வராதீங்க:innaikku varaathinga</tamil> you know I have err some others who have come <tamil>அப்படின்னு சொல்லி அவரு:appadinnu solli avaru</tamil> postpone <tamil>பண்றதும் இருக்கு:pandrathum irukku</tamil> so I'll probably find some saturday that he's free or not working then I'll


arrange to go err to do the lunch at his house and then <tamil>அவரையும்:avaraiyum</tamil> interview <tamil>பண்ணிட்டு:pannittu</tamil> maybe Balakrishnan <tamil>வந்தார்ன்னா இரண்டு பேரையும் ஒண்ணா முடிக்க முடியும்னான்னு:vanthaarnnaa irandu paeraiyum onnaa mudikka mudiyumnaannu</tamil> then Anand I will take it separately so that overall the recording can happen at this err


ah <tamil>அங்க ஆமாம் அங்க வரவங்ககிட்ட சொல்லி ஒரு:anga aamaam anga varavangakatta solli oru</tamil> allowance ah <tamil>செய்ய முடியுமா நான் கேட்டு பார்க்கிறேன்:seyya mudiyumaa naan kaettu paarkiren</tamil> if it's okay, then maybe one time set up <tamil>பண்றதுக்கு:pandrathukku</tamil> I may ask one of them to err go there to help like Sasi or someone <tamil>இன்னைக்கு:innaikku</tamil> set up <tamil>பண்ணி கொடுத்த மாதிரி அங்க அவங்களுக்கு:panni kodutha maathiri anga avangalukku</tamil> set up <tamil>பண்ணி கொடுத்தோம்ன்னா:panni koduthomnnaa</tamil> then he can do


maybe his his audience and the people actors he gets are people who are in the mid twenties and thirties who may be easier to handle so not political compared to the club, err


ya so <tamil>அது வந்து ஓடிட்டு இருக்கிறனாள:athu vanthu odittu irukkiranaala</tamil> all his time is taken for the rehearsal and virtual err he's putting up err some of the old dramas he's trying to bring it alive during this time to to get his group going so <tamil>அந்த:antha</tamil> timing eh <tamil>பார்த்துட்டு:paarthuttu</tamil> I will ask him whether they can squeeze this in


ya he can be one of our


, ya Pugalenthi may be another new crowd not not with the current one so <tamil>அவரு கேட்கலாம்:avaru kaetkalaam</tamil> Anand I will talk to him varies because different group <tamil>வந்தா:vanthaa</tamil> easier to meet the target


<tamil>ஆமாம்:aamaam</tamil> right


, fifties <tamil>கூட:kuda</tamil> sixties ah <tamil>இருக்கும்:irukkum</tamil> fifties people may not know Bhanumathi no <tamil>இப்போ என்:ippo en</tamil> time <tamil>யிலே:yilae</tamil> Bhanumathi is not the star


no but sixties <tamil>இல்ல இருக்குற வொண்களுக்கு தான்:illa irukkura vongalukku thaan</tamil> Bhanumathi <tamil>தெரியும்:theriyum</tamil> fifties <tamil>என்:en</tamil> I'm not a fan of Bhanumathi my time Bhanumathi songs all not popular so it's like the SP Shailaja, maybe <tamil>இவுங்க என்ன:ivanga enna</tamil> #jayaramaa paandi# #jeyaraam#


more is like Janagi and Susila night <tamil>அது தான்:athu thaan</tamil> work <tamil>பண்ணும்:pannum</tamil> Bhanumathi is is my father's generation, <tamil>தெரியிலில்லா எவ்வளவு பேருக்கு அவளை பற்றி தெரியும்னு:theriyillaa evvalavu perukku avalai patri theriyumnu</tamil> I doubt it, so but we I mean we may get a group but the target group will be older


, okay,


okay


okay right okay , it's like the pioneer generation kind of pioneer generation okay I think that that's better


right, and we can make it err if they bring along a helper it's free for the helper because some of them may need their help to come rather than their grandchildren or their children


, but the the target audience how how many people are we thinking of for the show


maybe hundred the most , because for sitting the theatre that they opening out currently right they are saying it has to be alternate diagonal one metre apart that means it's like alternate alternate so two hundred three hundred seat auditorium will have to err maybe just like err seated hundred people previously at three hundred people


then they will have to mark it out and then the seating plan will, ya, but then err okay national library means the capacity of the auditoriums are


smaller much smaller ya I think that's more err workable target, ya one one or two sponsor kind of thing we can


yes ya that was something that I never expected from him,


ya I told him it may not be good idea because we are tired how many times have we have the same kind of, yes right, ya so I told him until next january or february we would just want to see how far we can


have the current right


oh okay


firmly, right


, right right


okay my only okay this time round err compared to the volume one, my main worry is that one we could do err like the seminar presentation which was very good for people especially err


definitely definitely but it for me for me is I was able to see face to face, I could see the commitment and they come there when they do we know whether they are serious about the project, yes


right team leader Sumathi uh Maha, err jaslyn those who were brought in right


right, ya organising of the event not the, people not the writers right correct okay


so <tamil>இப்போ:ippo</tamil> alternatively what I'm seeing is okay but now the writings are coming like #kasturi chandran# has submitted a few Annalakshmi submitted


from india which town in that part was missing and err he has siblings the names are mentioned but why the family actually migrated here that that link was missing so I told her, fill that in write it in type then you send I will submit it to Sasi or to you for reading but first cut when I read I felt it was not even at my level


ya, the year they put right right, right


yes <tamil>எல்லாருமே அந்த ரஜூலா அந்த ரஜூலா கப்பல்:ellarume antha rajoola antha rajoola kappal</tamil> to Nagapattinam, right, so the cascade <tamil>உள்ளவங்க பற்றி தான் அவங்க எழுதுனாங்க:ullavanga patri thaan avanga eluthunaanga</tamil> Eesan cascade so I know them because <tamil>எங்க அம்மா ஊரில் இருந்து வந்தப்போ அதே கப்பலில் தான்:enga amma ooril irunthu vanthappo athae kappalil thaan</tamil> Eesan cascade <tamil>அவரோட அண்ணணும் அவங்க அம்மா அப்பாவும் வந்தாங்க அப்படி தான் எங்களுக்கு அந்த:avaroda annannum avanga amma appaavum vanthaanga appadi thaan engalukku antha</tamil> family eh <tamil>பழக்கம்:palakkam</tamil> so I said from what I know


err this family when they came there was this elder boy and this guy was born here but they never straight away lived in delta as reported I said they must have stayed some other kampung first so go back to him get the kampung where they stayed


, right yes yes


but the fact was Annalakshmi was also a writer in the first book, so she has a copy of the book so <tamil>நான் சொன்னேன்:naan sonnaen</tamil> okay ah so <tamil>நான் சொன்னேன் போய்:naan sonnaen poi</tamil> Raju cascade <tamil>பற்றி எழுந்திருக்கும் அதை படிச்சு பாருங்க படிச்சுட்டு அதே:patri eluthirukkum athai padichu paarunga padichuttu athe</tamil> format <tamil>இல்ல இப்போ உள்ளதை நீங்க வந்து இது பண்ணிரலாம்:illa ippo ullathai ninga vanthu ithu panniralaam</tamil> but Annalakshmi is one thing she's receptive to


feedback so <tamil>செஞ்சிறேன் மா செஞ்சிட்டு அனுப்புறேன்ட்டு இருக்காங்க:senjiren maa senjittu anupprenttu irukaanga</tamil> so one of it that came and bounce back was hers, err then err Santha <tamil>இரண்டு எழுதுறாங்க இல்லையா:irandu eluthuraanga illaiyaa</tamil> err I told her, to go and start <tamil>ஆமாம்:aamaam</tamil> but <tamil>அவங்களுக்கு தெரியும் சொன்னாங்க நான் பேசிட்டேன் சொன்னேன்:avangalukku theriyum sonnaanga naan pesitten sonnen</tamil> #bukit panjang# CC


main <tamil>ஆமாம்:aamaam</tamil> ah


<tamil>சரி:sari</tamil> right


one I got, okay


okay <tamil>ஆமாம்:aamaam</tamil> that


right right


right, is fine good for us good for us


err <tamil>அவங்க வந்து இன்னைக்கு எனக்கு:avanga vanthu innaikku enakku</tamil> aim email <tamil>அனுப்பி இருக்காங்க ஒரு நாலு ஆசிரியர் பெயரு அவங்களோட பள்ளி முதல்வர்:anuppi irukkaanga oru naalu aasiriyer peyaru avngaloda palli muthalvar</tamil> that means the principal err the teacher's name and err email address, so what they want is like the as volume one we send them a letter of authorisation


so they want a letter sent to their principal I think they also want some credit for working in this for them it's a it's a it's a additional recognition ah that they are involved in social community work on it so she has sent me like for five including herself


so I'm going to take the old one I just make some minor edit, okay, ya so I replied to #thirumaaran sumathi# saying that okay err I will look into it I'll get a letter email <tamil>பண்ணிட்டு:pannittu</tamil> the same thing <tamil>உங்களுக்கு:ungalukku</tamil> CC <tamil>பண்ணிவிடுறேன்:pannividuren</tamil> so <tamil>உங்களுக்கும் தெரியும் யாருக்கு அனுப்பி இருக்கோம் அப்படின்னு:ungalukku theriyum yaarukku anuppi irukkom appadinnu</tamil> so #sumathi thirumaaran# <tamil>இப்ப அது அது இருக்காங்க:ippa athua thu irukkaanga</tamil> I think what happen is


to ask err, so now actually,


so immediately with a one hour notice <tamil>நம்ம அனுப்புனதுநால:namma anupunathunaala</tamil> she's she feels very obliged because that's a huge thing for her so err she said she will do then the other writers is Rajukumari <tamil>புதுசா வந்திருக்காங்க இல்லை:puthusaa vanthirukkaanga illai</tamil> she and one more person


okay good finally okay great


, , , so ah <tamil>நம்ம இத இத முடிச்சிட்டோம்ன்னா:namma itha itha mudichitomnnaa</tamil> what I feel is okay <tamil>இன்னும் ஒரு:innum oru</tamil> one two week <tamil>இல்ல நம்ம:illa namma</tamil> meet <tamil>பண்றப்ப:pandrappa</tamil> completed <tamil>ஆனது:aanathu</tamil> number <tamil>இருக்கோம் யார் யாருக்கு போட்டுட்டோம்கிர:irukkom yaar yaarukku pottuttomkira</tamil> number <tamil>இருக்கு நான்:irukku naan</tamil> physically <tamil>அன்னைக்கு:annaikku</tamil> count <tamil>பண்ணப்போ:pannappo</tamil> err hundred forty three <tamil>வந்திருந்தது போன வாரம் நம்ம:vanthirunthathu pona vaaram namma</tamil> meet <tamil>பண்றப்போ:pandrappo</tamil> actually <tamil>நம்ம:namma</tamil> meeting now got pushed out right


in the volume two <tamil>தேவையான எழுத்து எழு ஆருமிகளும் எழுத போன்றவொண்களையும்:thevaiyaana eluthu elu aarumigalum elutha pondravonkalaiyum</tamil> we have already confirmed so <tamil>மீதி உள்ளது:mithi ullathu</tamil> just like the last issue err err few err things added to routine and err be completed to two hundred so similarly we may be doing


okay okay


okay, so if they are writers ah based on your books you have do you need people or do you want them to do or you can


you do yourself okay fine


why #sim lim# drive #sin ming# drive yes, what a sad sad ending


, right


oh, oh but then okay


but <tamil>அவருக்கு தெரிஞ்ச:avarukku therinja</tamil> friends <tamil>எல்லாம் கொண்டு வர முடியுமா:ellaam kondu vara mudiyumaa</tamil> who are in the similar, okay alright


exactly


so malaysians are celebrate different in culture and even buy from this project we cannot evolve them simply because, suddenly they will use,


rafflers


ya ya because our our old time they don't know the correct pronunciation it has taken a new word <tamil>அது எல்லாரும் புரிரநால:athu elaarum puriranaala</tamil> everybody thinks


, okay


then that one has to be transcribed, [orh]


ah that one you you asked him to do at APU right APU no okay no this one, I understand


ya day and night to sit and do <tamil>இல்லை:illai</tamil> the project you introduced that time <tamil>வந்து:vanthu</tamil> err the occupational err transition that means compared to the <tamil>தாத்தா:thaathaa</tamil> time, my father's time and my time <tamil>எப்படி மாரி இருக்கு:eppadi maari irukku</tamil> how the income has changed the job mobility err and then err are we better than the previous generation that kind of study


, correct so right


so ya that that's how we can approach this and then we complete err the the things that we we plan to do so the launch for the second one, the completion


that would be a good time if we are looking at teachers who are writers err holiday <tamil>இருக்கு வரது ஒரு:irukku varathu oru</tamil> event <tamil>வந்து ஒரு:vanthu oru</tamil> even a midday <tamil>ஒரு:oru</tamil> wednesday or evening <tamil>கூட வைச்சாலும்:kuda vaichaalum</tamil> we can have it no need to be a weekend <tamil>அந்த மாதிரி:antha maathiri</tamil> plan <tamil>பண்ணோம்ன்னா:pannomnnaa</tamil> march is a is a doable date I think


ah march is the target so we can still we don't tell everybody yet we can give them up to november middle november, yes yes


broker piece, ya the GV muttons <tamil>இல்லை இல்லை:illai illai</tamil> GV muttons the writer was a different guys is a indian PR ah <tamil>அவர் பெயர்:avar peyar</tamil> Karthikar <tamil>ன்னு ஒன்னு:nnu onnu</tamil> ah <tamil>அவர்:avar</tamil> okay


he was the one who did the original write up on him you see err he has signed up but he hasn't take err completed the writing yet yes yes ya he's a very nice guy I'll get him in because some what happened is


K the problem was when we transit from the first volume to the second volume right when Sasi and they all send the link ask them the email and all the people didn't click, ya


, ya or maybe they they


exactly so like we keep on telling that we got a voice recording facility but actually <tamil>அது வந்து:athu vanthu</tamil> is like what you record to do the writing and that's not exactly what, these people are looking for ah so if he wasn't here <tamil>நம்ம வந்து அந்த:namma vanthu antha</tamil> download <tamil>பண்ணி இன்னைக்கு செஞ்சிருக்க முடியாது:panni innaikku senjirukka mudiyaathu</tamil> we will say <tamil>நம்ம செஞ்சிரலாம்ன்னு சொல்லிட்டு போனோம்ன்னா:namma senjiralaamnnu sollittu ponomnnaa</tamil> then another day will


be wasted yes yes, yes


not only that doctor <tamil>இப்ப நம்ம:ippa namma</tamil> record <tamil>பண்ணி தான்:panni thaan</tamil> we realise that it has to be like err interspersed with the tamil in it ah it's not like ten minutes just in between or a totality can be included so then how


included so them how after that all can be in english right, ya so it is different so it's good that today we managed to get this and he is there to ya


and also because he he's sort of digested what what are the do's and don'ts so he can straightaway comment and say eh what we are doing may not be exactly and this is something that they don't want and, this is how we get yes


okay so now they are telling that err the deadline they're going to give us one more week is it to meet the target is that what


okay right


ya we we try our best to get the numbers in, ya right


right okay, okay right


ya I think is just the breaking of the initial ones once we have done it I think the subsequent ones will be easier to do it err <tamil>இப்போ முதல நம்ம:ippo muthala namma</tamil> try <tamil>பண்றோம் இதே எவ்வளவு தூரத்துக்கு:pandrom ithae evvalvu thurathukku</tamil> correct ah <tamil>வரும்ன்னு:varumnnu</tamil> I'm not


english was less they <tamil>இதுல வந்து:ithula vanthu</tamil> you need only ten to twenty, percent


ya but okay then err the other thing what I wanted to confirm okay the people we are writing on right the last time we categorise them by business, err politician social community work and and the thing so are we going to again


same category right , yes the last time we took him out


, god yes his way of ya there are quite a number


!wow! !wow! oh okay, ya coming to the Katong sounds right yes yes some somehow they have some divine thing come upon them I've heard also there is this err Rajamanikam the


astrologer right you were talking about him err the contact is still, err missing because #se pa pannerselvam# say he may know the daughter, so <tamil>அவங்க இப்ப பார்க்கிறாங்க போல ஜாதகம்:avanga ippa paarkiraanga pola jaathakam</tamil> just like the father's way


okay then <tamil>அப்போ:appo</tamil> then [orh] good reason, okay my err I have about err six people to write on right professor, I I took on <tamil>அது வந்து:athu vanthu</tamil> two of it is like in the midst of doing it <tamil>மற்ற வோங்க எல்லாம்:matra vonga ellaam</tamil> is like err is getting a bit delayed delayed but I hope after this err exam period I can do it quickly and err get it out


yes good ya because my, focus now is to make sure the two hundred people are assigned to people at least that first part <tamil>முடிச்சுட்டேன்னா:mudichuttaennaa</tamil> the bulk of it is is is off ya so after that then err


ah we can then have the a bit of buffer so that err we can have err to a bit in case we have to pull out one or two like what we did in the first volume we can pull out and we can insert so <tamil>இப்போ என்:ippo en</tamil> priority <tamil>இப்போ நான்:ippo naan</tamil> work <tamil>பண்றது என்னன்னா அந்த:pandrathu enannaa antha</tamil> numbers eh hit <tamil>பண்ணாலும்:pannaalum</tamil> I'm still looking for writers


pass it to you so <tamil>அது நீங்க:athu ninga</tamil> tan <tamil>ஏதோ முடிக்கியில்லா:ethoo mudikiyilla</tamil> the others who are doing right the teachers who are on leave, so <tamil>அவங்களுக்கு கொடுத்தோம்ன்னா அவங்களுக்கு:avangalukku koduthomnnaa aavngalukku</tamil> november <tamil>கொடுத்துட்டோம்ன்னா:koduthuttomnnaa</tamil> they will <tamil>இப்ப தான்:ippa thaan</tamil> holiday <tamil>எங்கையும் பறக்க முடியில இல்ல ஊருக்கு போ முடியாது:engaiyum parakaa mudiyila illa oorukku po mudiyaathu</tamil> travel <tamil>இல்லை:illai</tamil> so <tamil>அவங்களுக்கு எல்லாம்:avngalukku ellaam</tamil> they they don't mind doing it so I that's actually a good thing about COVID


COVID <tamil>இந்த:intha</tamil> holiday <tamil>இல்ல யாரும் எங்கையும்:illa yaarum engaiyum</tamil> travel <tamil>பண்ணலை:pannalai</tamil> (mm)


err hi Malathi err today uh let us discuss err our publications you know about publications we have a series of problems one was the err <tamil>புதிய சமுதாயம்:puthiya samuthaayam</tamil> one our newsletter


err it took us err quite strenuous energy and organisation within singapore Tamilian club, to do it and err we some how or rather finished it


no I think err it's not even a big I finished it yesterday night reviewing the entire thirty two pages the only err err things left for the printed to do is err, put the contents page which I typed for him both in tamil and english then err the other page err which had a mistake was his our editorial group list I found that err some of the older names are still left there so I removed them so I've told him these two he has to edit


I think probably tonight err he might send the whole thing thirty two pages and if it if it is alright then err what I will do is to give you some time to read the thirty two pages and once you approve the thing then err we'll ask him to put in a PDF format


no my feeling Malathi is ah do not spend your time on those things I think err your brain should be spent on many things err I feel ah you have already done justice to ourself to ask err miss Shanta


to have a second look and I think she has done a wonderful editing the only portion that she did not edit was, the portion on err err the five people's contributions where she is also featured that's the only one, and I actually at night also I looked at it err I think the what we call in tamil as <tamil>ஒற்று பிழைகள்:otru pilakal</tamil> err that is very minimal actually so in some cases I had some doubts but err I feel that it would not be the major thing


so I think err err you should not be err proofreading it again don't don't err burden err poor Sasi by asking him to, print and bring it and hardcopy and everything I think we go for it and he has already reduced to err four pages material to three pages of course it looks small but I think we should just let it go


err because err just like working in a printing press, even until the last minute the news err the news would seem not right sometimes you have to let it go and then let the readers criticised whatever they want you know


ya, probably if there are any critics err next err issue we will evaluate STIC is quite happy to give err zooming glass for people who cannot read it but then err it is a PDF copy because it's a PDF copy people can expand it and read it


for people who cannot read it but then err it is a PDF copy because it's a PDF copy people can expand it and read it, ya should be no problem ya ya ya yes


so I think the err err the the lessons we learned in the first err issue of <tamil>புதிய சமுதாயம்:puthiya samuthaayam</tamil> err we have lessened it now of course err the only major thing that happen in the <tamil>புதிய சமுதாயம்:puthiya samuthaayam</tamil> two is, the decision by many of our members and I think we have managed it quite well


so I think err err err err desertion by especially in a voluntary movement like this there is always desertion, and err err and I think err mister Kumar understands that err only yourself myself and mister Sasi are involved from now on


and the money part err err err the payment part I think err he will err get back to us and say err how much he want to charge as long as it is reasonable I'm willing to let it go, and finish it err err I at this point so err err let's let's see err how it comes out and probably err


if STYC can clear the administrative err err problems we have in issuing cheques, err then the money can be transmitted straight away err to him and I think err I will ask err our own miss Prethipa to talk to


our internal err err governance structure to ensure that err err cheques get signed, ya this one I will try to do it by the end of this month so because sometime issue will be settled, and I think err we can start circulating and probably once it is err err it is out in the I mean digital media


then I think err we can take time in err november, err just before Deepavali printing the two err <tamil>புதிய சமுதாயம்:puthiya samuthaayam</tamil> issues into hardcopy and then posting it to our all our well wishers err err and as well as err our donors


and there then we can ask for advertisements and everything, I think that way err we'll we'll we'll go extra mile, and then err worrying about it too much at this level because , err that's why I didn't want to disturb you last two days I did it myself with I did it sometime even though this project was really disturbing me a lot especially the more I read the technology became the big issue in this project ah


which I think now err mister Mohan and all the others are realising that err they did not look at this angle technology angle like I was even surprised that , the phone you know I I just took for granted that everybody has a handphone and and they can just ring and err you switch it on it works what if the fellow comes and says my phone today is broken


Mali err you want to continue the comments you are making,


okay err err next issues will be more concerned about the grammatical issues of the whole err publication, because we are bilingual publication so we have to ensure that err err our of course our english versions are very good because all of us are english educated err no problem err we we try to make sure as much as possible lah good written english is done


but then err err Malathi I'm more concerned about err finding an editorial committee there err you cannot be really worn out and tired you know err, running after me because I'm running very fast I know in STYC


I know you are always doing that very well but, so uh recently err in my Facebook nowadays when people join me in the Facebook, and I find I go through their profile and when I find that they are IT savvy


like I that day I discovered one man he is a S pass holder working in singapore, and so I I messaged him and and I got his WhatsApp number and everything I asked him err what are you here are you a labourer or what are you doing and then err


uh he he said he's a S pass holder which is good, so what I told him oh the thing is that err why don't you join our public relations committee err err we will train you, and then when your time comes for applying for PR just like many other S pass holders you can use our your your voluntary service here as a credit


I think he must be in the thirties he has got a degree from university of madras which is quite a prestigious university in err india and so I think err like that I'm now hunting for people in the Facebook, some ladies also I have err err err written notes but for some reason they all seem to be in the drama groups


ah yes err in fact I I she is going to get involved in a project not here but err she's going to get involved in the transcription, which mister Mohan err wants to help people because transcription of one hour recording it seems to take six hours


and ya six hours err err they have to transcribe err and err so, I think that she can do so I agreed with him that she doesn't need work permit and all these things so present work permit she does it as a part time at night and all so I I'm not sure whether the lady err will be prepared her major her problem is actually


income income and we cannot pay that kind of income err, she is expecting a right now she's withdrawing drawing a salary of about err thousand a thousand dollars so err after all the deductions so she gets about err nine hundred dollars take home and nine hundred dollars and because she's staying with the husband err one hundred and fifty goes for the rent


ah


err this one err is a big volume as you know the first volume eh <tamil>வந்து:vanthu</tamil> about uh eight hundred over pages <tamil>இருந்துச்சு இந்த:irunthuchu intha</tamil> second err err volume <tamil>இல்ல வந்து:illa vanthu</tamil> what what problems you think we are facing ah


then uh as you know mister #sauru hamid# err <tamil>அவர் என்ன செஞ்சிருக்கார்னா:avar enna senjirukkaarnaa</tamil> he has given us already about I think eight scripts done <tamil>அதை வந்து அன்னைக்கே வந்து:athai vanthu annaikkae vanthu</tamil> mr Bala <tamil>வந்து:vanthu</tamil> electronically he transferred into a printed err version, and in fact is already in the thing and err I haven't read it yet err but I will definitely read it and err once that is done and


probably he said in another, ten week ten days time he'll give the balance in fact he has been asking me whether he can err proposed new people I said please do err like err like more recent there's one man called mister Majid


uh this Majid err doesn't appear on our list but I I know him quite well err he has working in a radio television singapore he has been a senior and everything err so err he has written about him so in fact when we received it and mister Bala asked me


oh this man is not in the original list I said it's okay we just add add this poor man and err, because he has made an impact and contribution


ah ah <tamil>அப்போ வந்து:appo vanthu</tamil> I think


I think Madi err the other person err whom you mentioned was this err GR money, err after after you put down the telephone then only I thought GR money was a very important man in the radio broadcasting world especially newsroom and everything so err err lucky err you did not pursue further and I also forgot to tell mister Paneerselvam


that please do GR money, so you go ahead and tell him GR money is most welcome, ah okay


anything about Chettiar Subramanium is the best


but then err Paneerselvam'S problem always Malathi is this, no date of birth you don't know the origin err he will just err start with a glorification of great event and then you don't know who the person is


ah, okay okay


, okay


ya <tamil>ஆமாம் ஆமாம்:aamaam aamaam</tamil> ya


in fact <tamil>இந்த சனிக்கிழமை வந்து:intha sanikkilamai vanthu</tamil> uh this saturday err I'm receiving all my boxes from JB <tamil>அதுல வந்து இதெல்லாம் வரனும்ன்னு:athula vanthu ithellaam varanumnnu</tamil> will come I think it will come, and if it comes then err I I can start writing more man but this project that we are doing with mister Mohan err is actually taking all my attention err to concentrate on this so that err we solve the logistic problem


if not err we won't have enough tamils participating you know it'll be all very young students err talking err ordinary things which probably even err mister mohan project itself may not be really interested because they don't know they don't talk about variety of things


like like what you and me are talking now err <tamil>இதை போல ஒரு:ithai pola oru</tamil> serious matter <tamil>வந்து வேற யாரும் பேச மாட்டாங்க:vanthu vera yaarum pesa maattaanga</tamil> only two of us can talk about the logistics organisation technology <tamil>எல்லாத்தை பற்றியும் மத்தவங்க எல்லாம் வந்து இதை பற்றி பேசவே மாட்டாங்க:ellaathai pathiyum mathaavanga ellaam vanthu ithai patri pesave maataanga</tamil> or they will say look this is just too


big for us let's not touch it


err so uh they are it's another wild goose chase lah virtual means err err half the participants will be from Chennai so singapore tamils will again reduce in number so I think


yes !wah!


and then the next week he dies ya I just change the script you know I changed the script, <tamil>ஆமாம்:aamaam</tamil>


ah, so what can't you call #selva anand# and him to your house give tea and record like this, the best thing is #selva anand# <tamil>கிட்ட சொல்லி:kitta solli</tamil> #selva anandh# himself can do the recording and send to us we we we pay him the money


ah ah ya , no make him an offer he cannot refuse good lunch


what you have to do is that ask him to cook and then do the interview , [orh]


[orh] he has been always inviting me err sending me messages said err err this coming weekend is a wonderful lunch would you like to come, err but I I don't want to hurt him by saying that I have stopped eating major meat that he cooks so chicken is


ya ya


you get two people to talk lah about about this one err err dramatic group you can talk about it


he may be technologically savvy lah he might be, yes in fact we can we can even get the fifteen sets done there you know and we can give him hundred and fifty dollars


yes our our girl only has written the script, yes I know ya very good very good


actually I I can ask even err this guy err err the guy who was the <tamil>நம்ம:namma</tamil> <tamil>இல்ல இருந்தான்னே அந்த:illa irunthaanne antha</tamil> Vinod Vinod ah


with err together with err I mean uh, with or err against err Avandh drama group, ah Pugalenthi in fact I can tell him why don't you err, no record the fifteen sets in your all your supporters and we'll give you a hundred and fifty dollars lah and plus the whatever allowance they get I think tonight I will send him a message lah


ya ya, no because this this groups have err people coming together you know for some reason so they don't have to really go and search ah whereas STYC because we have lost our err more or less err background lose <tamil>பண்ணிட்ட நால இப்போ வந்து:pannitta naala ippo vanthu</tamil> we are trying to build again you know all the things


but <tamil>அதனால தான்:athanala thaan</tamil> next year I want to have is a Bhanumathi night where the famous actress so that we capture the people in the fifties, no no it's okay fifties at least they they are aware of MGR and Bhanumathi


np, Malathi sixties may be all people ready to die so let's not consider fifties is under, ah [orh] I see I see I see


ah but Bhanumathi is a dream woman lah,


miss Latha is coming err not our Latha this this is different Latha I met her in the funeral of this err alice winifred home you see so she is very keen to organise a culture show only she wants an umbrella like STYC, err <tamil>அவங்க சொன்னாங்க நீங்க வந்து பணத்தை எல்லாம்:avnga sonnaanga ninga vanthu panathai ellaam</tamil> ready <tamil>பண்ணி கொடுத்திருங்க:panni koduthirunga</tamil> I said no problem we can create the money for you err you come and err do this err great cultural show


and ah ah a <tamil>நான் சொன்னேன்:naan sonen</tamil> audience eh <tamil>பற்றி கவலை படாதீங்க:patri kavalai padaathinga</tamil> audience is not a problem because we're going to advertise saying that anybody who has got a senior citizen pass for them free admission free admission no ticket charge not only they can come they can bring their grandchildren also


ah right pioneer generation yes pioneer generation, so ah then I said they can bring their grandchildren also err but if preferable grandchildren should be err teenagers so that we can grab them for members somehow or rather


so most probably we will we'll book err national library front where we our our overhead costs are very less and these err ladies err I mean actually they all are younger people to me at least twenty years difference


well I don't know err err COVID situation still prevails a one metre distance we we err err err ah if helpers are coming then you have to give four chairs for one one man ah


ya ah ah ah


now that one ah we will leave it to experts lah we will get somebody from outside to do all that thing according to or even the national library may even err provide an officer to guide


small so even fifty people is okay, and err hopefully err some err organisation or somebody to give some money for the expenses lah


they even offer it to Sri but Sri, uh he told me prof I don't have many indians in my life so even if I become a god but he was very patient to sit down and listen and ask questions and everything ya


and I'm I'm my my mind is now full of this project then our SG two hundred then err <tamil>புதிய சமுதாயம்:puthiya samuthaayam</tamil> of course is now over already


then I also want to resolve <tamil>இந்த இடத்தை வந்து:intha idathai vanthu</tamil> resolve <tamil>பண்ணி ஆகனும்:panni aakanum</tamil> Malathi <tamil>ஏனா இவரு வந்து எதை எதையோ ஒரு:yaenaa ivaru vanthu ethai ethaiyo</tamil> mind leh <tamil>வைச்சுக்கிட்டு என்னம்மோ செய்றாரு அது வந்து நம்ம கொஞ்ச குறைச்சு என்ன அது வந்து ஒழுங்கா ஒரு:vaichukkittu ennammo seyraaru athu vanthu namma koncha kuraichu enna athu vanthu olungaaga oru</tamil> rule based organisation <tamil>நடத்திலே சொன்னா:nadathile sonnaa</tamil> we've run into smack into trouble


err number <tamil>நம்ம தலைவர் வந்து:amma thalaivar vanthu</tamil> jolly ah <tamil>என்கிட்டே சொல்றாரு முந்தாநேற்று அது சரி இல்லை தானே:enkitte solraaru munthaanaetru athu sari illai thane</tamil> professor Mani <tamil>அப்படின்ட்டு ஆமாம் சொன்னேன் அது சரி இல்லை தான் அப்படி நடந்துகிட்டு இருக்கிறது சரி இல்லை இல்லை அந்த ஒரு பொடி பையன் வந்து:appadintu aamaam sonnen athu sari illai thaan appadi nadanthukittu irukkirathu sari illai illai antha oru podi paiyaan vanthu</tamil> he is telling me ah <tamil>அப்படி நடந்துவிட்டது சரியில்லை:appadi nadanthuvittathu saryillai</tamil> Kiraan but of course he's not telling me


very very firmly ah but but cautiously saying I told him straight away yes it is wrong, so I've taken enough steps to correct the wrong I said I I err err this is something err we cannot tolerate in STYC people don't follow the manifesto and the manual something's is wrong and I follow it very very strictly ah


I will never use my err use my position to abuse any junior member walking into the thing whether it is a girl or boy or even if they err speak err very err firmly and arrogantly I will just say it's okay we follow still the manifesto in the rules


err and then they themselves will realise that err this is something uh they have they have violated ah and they go so I think err this err this err our singapore tamils two hundred volume is a major concern for me I think


err I have a funny feeling that it may be even easier than the volume one to finish Malathi


yes yes yes <tamil>ஆமாம்:aamaam</tamil>


but here Malathi the the question is that was really dramatic dramatics err dramatics I will use the word english word dramatics ah, at the end of the day the dirty work still fell upon me


so err what we can err err roughly if you can I mean which we both of us don't have the energy to do it this is just empty talk I mean if we can probably err we can call a few and talk but probably we can err throw a tea party for all the ringleaders


ya ringleaders like err #sumathi thirumaaran# Thirumaaran and the teachers ah ya err even the other teachers who are working with them we invite them here and give them a tea and err probably a burmese cake and err err we give speeches


uh <tamil>இதை செய்யலாம் நம்ம வந்து:ithai seyyalaam namma vanthu</tamil> uh this is okay because some this is something we did not do in volume one we we gave sort of a treat to all our volunteers only the young people, not the writers so we we lost that err warm warm feeling ah we could have developed with the writers and develop a committee


ya, I see <tamil>நான் நான் இன்னும் படிக்கில்லா:naan naan innum padikkillaa</tamil> I haven't read it yet, ah


ah ya


no many of them just write they came from india but nobody came from india nobody came from india all of our forefathers never came from india it's some modern india they are talking about the ancient india was at Madras presidency Chennai <tamil>மாகாணத்தில் இருந்து வந்தாங்க:maakanathil irunthu vanthaanga</tamil> chennai <tamil>மாகாணத்தில் வந்து இருந்தாலும்:maakaanthil vanthu irunthaalum</tamil> they never went to


ninety percent of the tamils in southeast asia came through <tamil>நாகப்பட்டினம் தான்:nagapattinaam thaan</tamil> even the telugus also you know, <tamil>ஆமாம்:aamaam</tamil>


yes, yes


actually they've read the volume one carefuly melody ah they can pick up some of the things like even I I mentioned about my forefathers and many others the five famines in the nineteenth century pushed the tamils ah to search for their livelihood outside their village, ah she never read it properly everything lah


pioneer <tamil>இல்ல இருந்து ஒரு கடிதம் எழுதிவிட்டேன் இதை போல திருமதி தேவிகிற வாத்தியார் வந்து உங்களை:illa irunthu oru kaditham eluthivitten ithai pola thirumathi thevikira vaathiyaar vanthu ungalai</tamil> interview <tamil>பண்ணி உங்களை பற்றி எழுதுவாங்க அவர் ஏதோ பதில் அனுப்பலைன்னா அவரோட பதிலை படிக்கலை:panni ungalai patri eluthuvaanga avar etho pathil anuppalannaa avaroda pathila padikkalai</tamil> but err but err the link has been made of course as a crazy man and right from my university days


err he has a phone number but not linked to WhatAapp, so <tamil>அந்த அந்த என்ன எழுதிருக்கார்ன்னு இன்னைக்கு ராத்திரி படிச்சுட்டு:antha antha enna eluthirukkaarnnu innaikku raathiri padichuttu</tamil> phone <tamil>அடிச்சி முடிஞ்சா ஏசு ஏசுன்னு ஏசிட்டு நீ எல்லாம் உறுப்புட மாட்டன்னு சொல்லிட்டு முடியில்ல சொன்னா இவனெல்லாம் உறுப்புட மாட்டான்னு சொல்லிட்டு முடியும்ன்னு சொல்லிருந்தா:adicchi mudinjaa esu esunnu esittu ni ellaam uruppuda maattannu sollittu mudiyilla sonnaa ivanellaam uruppuda maattannu sollittu mudiyumnnu sollirunthaa</tamil> err err just like err <tamil>ஒரு:oru</tamil> like err one <tamil>ஒரு:oru</tamil> writer <tamil>இருக்காரு:irukkaaru</tamil> err #rama kannaipuraan#


and Nilakandan in fact he has written in our latest <tamil>புதிய சமுதாயம்:puthiya samuthaayam</tamil> that, that is an accident we left him out he doesn't know the history of Ramakannaipuraan and us that he is a community devil


and err he's a devil who should be avoided and he is a devil that I developed originally and that devil err err later became the worst headache for the tamil literature community you know so I want to avoid him err and his two other friends err who one is dead another one is hiding in Bangkok


so err err I did not tell him I just as my own practise I told him please go ahead, so he interviewed the man I went to interview the man said oh I I don't want to be featured in this book very good for us, ah no loss


ah


ya ya ya plus point okay ah can you dig out the old letter melody, and then you send a do one one draft and send it to me I I I may improve a little bit here and there or nothing at all then you just send it


<tamil>சரி:sari</tamil> ah ah


she's a decent lady lah she writes err quite well to me, we gave a letter okay


I see , that's okay leave them alone leave them alone, I think err francisca is already err interviewed mister Muttaiyah so mister Muttaiyah err I think he is very happy that he is being featured is being featured in volume two I told him lah this is volume two is just only volume two


we may go until volume five but we don't want to wait until volume five to cover you we want to cover it now itself <tamil>அப்படின்னு சொன்னேன்:appadinnu sonnen</tamil> so I think err he's very happy he's very happy


yes, ya


ya, yes , no once my boxes come on saturday ah because saturday I have to arrange in such a way that either Maran or Sasi are here to


do the recording because err saturday once the lorry brings my boxes then I'll come here of course and err err so err then then I think err the whole of saturday I'll be here saturday another bunch of security ladies will becoming ya so I'm trying to make this a contact


ah, no that one I can do myself err no like mister Karupai of <tamil>தமிழர் இயக்கம்:thamilar eyakam</tamil> for instance I had the book I know about him personally well and err of course


err late life ah he because of his currently pressure he convert to christianity and that disqualified him totally from the association ah nobody went to his funeral ya only me and Samy went and even that funeral house we went somewhere near #sim lim# road ah


ya #sim lim# drive ah just near thomson road ah I was surprised for the first time in my life funeral only the corpse is lying there and nobody, none from his family members are sitting there what a sad so I told myself you know poor mister Karupiya you know


of course their association was already also in err err shambles err like just like, only like SUIC we will definitely err say orbituaries to our former members as long as we are around ah but the new generation which willl come they may not know that so and so was err say SUIC president SUIC secretary


I I'm a bit worried about that actually I'm a bit worried about that but that one is okay err, probably err once we have err more of a permanent office err we must display as many pictures as possible of all the past presidents important people leaders and everybody ah


err like okay <tamil>புதிய சமுதாயம்:puthiya samuthaayam</tamil> two has captured the err err Sasi alright as contributing behind the scene, err I mean err those those things okay err documented documented but err there are many many people who are not documented so this one we have to worry and we will see how err this will work


so basically I I'm more worried about err reforming the err about committee err in the coming months so that we have some technocrats brought in right like this man err whom I'm trying to get he said in in india he's err work was actually phone technology


phone technology but in wanting to migrate and work in singapore he is a now aircon technician , but then he is a S pass holder so that means err his salary is err quite high for him to get the S pass


so I told him you will definitely qualify for you know PR in the in the coming years if everything goes well so you can use the contribution you make in STYC to do that I say you don't want to come every week err whenever you're free because you are in IT you can help us by doing work from your home you know


slowly first first let us first study them Mala one by one because they come from a very alien culture, not our culture you know not not the singapore culture even malaysians are quite slightly different ah like when he talking to this girl and her husband I realise you know their their culture is quite different


err they don't of course they are more passionate err like somebody a brother-in-law is sick they are willing to sell all their gold to to save the man whereas in singapore we will be a bit careful you see you see we'll try to ask the doctor is the fellow can really live or not if cannot live means why waste money on him lah


err just stop it and say go in peace err solo so malaysians are quite different in culture and even like for this our project we cannot involve them simply because err suddenly they will use, continuous malay words


but but it's a spoken tamil but continuous malay words then they will use err english like the malay word you know bottle is normal bottle they call it botol ah botol botol and then err like err I was speaking to this couple


they they are telling me they're going to raffles clinic I thought where is the raffles clinic in singapore then only I realised they were talking to raffles, so like malay they converted F L E S as raffles, so I told them in singapore you use raffles nobody will understand you try and use raffles ah then they they said oh thank you for correcting us we were just calling raffles raffles everywhere


but his wife is very intelligent even though that man has studied in singapore polytechnic his wife is very very intelligent Malathi she knows three languages very well end up in tamil because she studied in tamil school got a polytechnic diploma from Malacca and which is a common polytechnic so but then we we cannot afford the salary lah


if the singaporean I can bargain okay eight hundred dollars I can raise for you the rest to be paid by project like what we paid Latha you know we pay from projects but being a malaysian she needs a solid work permit, if mister Ravi and contact the chief I can get the work permit done but then err we cannot guarantee monthly payment ah


very tight so I told her you better work in your own err factory you are working and what to do err err it's unfortunate that you are a malaysian you can have a brain but you're a malaysian you're caught in the work permit situation nobody can help you but this project Mohan project she will help lah


err and she's looking forward to it because err eighty dollars per transcription is quite a good money err she says it's great money err err she worked err day and night I said don't work day and night work at night err one hour, because err Mohan has told me to transcribe one err one hour of recording it seems he takes six hours


ah ah, so because you have to listen and err err romanised and all these things ah, did we do it


the only the last project I remember was our poor #sakthi balan# he had to transcribe all the interviews I did in, myanmar ya ya ya he got a payment but the poor guy was really struggling he said professor I don't understand the tamil they are speaking


but anyway the money was attractive but then err it's a boring work lah it's still a boring work for the young, man ya


in fact that's what I thought when I took this project I did not know this project there's so much technology and no one by one as I as I talked to the group ah I realised Malathi my phone today only struck me ah what if two women come in and say I did not bring my phone because my friend has a phone


ya, ya sure sure


ah


then this man err who was err sort of a peace broker, then err how did he get involved in the peace peace, so is he writing in this volume


can you get him involved he is a good man he's a good man get him involved in fact for the third third volume ah we can bring him into our communitee itself


no Malathi it's again the technology technology the people have not made the transition to reach the technology just like, why today I'm even recording this video is to be familiar with what are we doing in this you know just like after this you'll be quite quite confident you know what to do so err the technology has not reached everybody


technological err err I mean err distribution is always uneven everyody carries a handphone but people don't know use the handphone, like err if not for him I do not know where to record you know, yes


no that's why err lucky they also were quite concerned they were concerned about the numbers not turning up but they did not understand that in my mind I'm I'm actually struggling with our people you know our culture and it's not only about tamils ah is across singapore


malays chinese everybody has the same problem is not that because they carry a handphone and they can take a picture straightaway of anything that doesn't make them even I was not err savvy until I got involved in this project now I I I learnt a lot so now I realise ah we need two telephones here


independent of the people ah so that


no it's good that you all came I know you came for a different project but that


that that's the project we are discussing now, ah, and they also now realise ah that technology is uneven they assume that everybody knows the technology and in fact yesterday I was telling Marun like sherine Tan for instance


so that err people like Mohan sherine Tan and #shin yee# all feel ah okay err for the indian community ah that are groups that can help and they will really work very hard to help us


so I think err we have we have conveyed that to them and but err once err err we can do it I I feel err proportionally about hundred sets of completed thing I'm quite happy already but hundred once we can reach hundred another fifty is no problem
