yup yup, correct, (oo), okay, ya ya ya ya


okay okay, okay, okay, okay okay that's good


ah okay, ya, ah


(oo) it's just convenient lah (oo) okay okay okay it's convenient ya ya right, , correct correct correct yes yes yes


yup yup yup yup, (uh huh), okay


okay, okay, oh okay okay


ah, oh my goodness okay okay okay okay okay


yup yup, correct, yes yes yes rimas rimas is the correct word yes yes I agree I agree, ya


(uh huh) (uh huh), uh like, correct correct, can get along right ya ya ya ya ya


ah, yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes yes, I I I I also feel the same way as you you know because last time ah whenever it I'm the same as you ah mesti kalau macam cakap [kan] mesti nak menang tau macam in an argument eh kalau mesti nak cakap mesti nak menang so I'm always macam energetically fight back tau ah passionate macam fight back tau but nowadays [kan] macam I I don't know ah kenapa it's just maybe maybe it's also because we we had gone through uh certain thing ya sort of like grown up you know being out there alone being by myself you know independent and all that


so uh kita macam tak tak uh apa tu there's no more energy to to ah to to expand to to argue tau macam at the most pun kalau even if we don't agree [kan] nanti the conversation will just die off like that rather than it turning into become a heated argument it will just die off you know and and that's honestly that's what I prefer lah you know it's just you know you just you just stop lah just you just don't don't don't speak lah but but it's something that I have always like macam I I'm really thankful that she's no longer you know the the the the person that she used to be because ya because err I I knew back then eh I knew for a fact that I could not live with her I definitely definitely could not stay in the same room with her


back then but then now I realise okay lah you know she's also ageing and she's also going old and all that I'm not sure whether is it because err dia pergi haji uh last year you know the previous year she she went for a pilgrimage you know and and she was very lucky it was just before COVID struck you know so she managed to go with my dad and then after that uh she came back and err I think I don't know lah maybe maybe the experience over there changed her or or you know it could be it could be the case that she realise some things when she's there you know


and then after when she came back ya when she came back err she was more err you know err she was more more able to control herself lah her emotions lah and on my part also I try to I try to control my own emotions lah


ya, yes it's not a one size fits all kind of thing yes correct, yes correct exactly


yes yes, ya ya ya, actually you are right you know I'm like you know Kinder Bueno tak yang the coklat Kinder Bueno okay okay I I tell you what's the relation eh Kinder Bueno dia punya chocolate it's hard on the outside but when you get to the inside it's actually really really soft


is it, is it is it is that is that oh for me for me I can if if if it's some if it's an issue that's very close to my heart [kan] I will I will ah I will be very very uh macam adamant to to keep to my belief style ah so when when I and when I'm that kind eh you that no matter what you do right I will not change and I will not follow whatever you say I will just keep to my own ini but if you were to do the reverse if you were to do the reverse psychology type of thing uh I will I will melt I will melt and I will just give in tau


(uh huh), ah I I've heard of it before yes yes yes yes I've heard of it


ah, yes yes yes yes, correct correct correct, ah


right right right right, ah, ya ya ya, ya correct correct correct I I will I I think I would I'll take you up on that on that offer I I've heard of that book before it's just that never uh actually read about it and it and it totally slip my mind until you you mentioned it but I I got audiobook eh okay okay ah yes yes yes I saw that one


ah, oh oh oh oh yes yes yes I think I remember that one also yes yes yes is it okay


(uh huh), yes yes yes, (uh huh)


(uh huh), ya ya yes yes correct, ya


ah, ah I see I see, right, ah, yes yes yes yes yes


yes yes yes yes yes, (uh huh), okay yes correct correct, correct


yes yes yes correct, yes yes yes, , yes, correct correct correct


yes , I actually find them funny lah it's just like the way they walk lah aku tak boleh Dok aku aku kalau tengok dia orang jalan macam gitu [kan] every time aku tengok like macam it's like eh it's like eh bro your one very big ah bro ya


yes yes I understand yes, ya ya ya ya, I understand ya, understand understand


ah, ya, yup yup yup, yes I remember that conversation very very well I remember it vividly yes of course you were the one who got me to try out for SQ punya apa tu uh yang yang yang ni apa we we we had we had a few we had a few conversations one was one was uh the the SQ part when you call me over the phone and we talked a very very long time you remember that part ya that was the first time [kan] so you ask me to apply for SQ punya apa tu uh opening [kan] yang yang ala air steward


ya err I told you about my eyesight and I also told you about uh I didn't know it at whether I'll make the cut and all that and then you you were like eh come lah just just follow me lah you know just just go you know together and that kind of stuff ya and then and then that was the first convo that I that I remember very vividly the second convo than we had was at dekat tak ingat tak dia dekat kita dekat northpoint kat Yishun


will you remember we weren't outside we were sitting in an open area dekat northpoint dekat McDonald's and then kat luar and then we were talking about things like illuminati lah we were talking about all the stuff that you know you remember or not and I still remember that I still remember that convo I still remember all our convos bro no no no it's okay it's but I I I I will always remember so


like but but so when you when you give me this kind of things right then you you are letting me know a a different perspective uh a different way of seeing how you know the person behaves in that kind of stuff so I think uh it's quite it's it's something that uh there I I would I would and then there's always a lot of things for me to learn lah


I am I am I still am actually yes you did yes you did, well I I knew that being a pilot was what I want but I didn't know that I could also try out to become like say for example an air steward you know what I mean which is not really flying flying but it's still this the the the I mean you are in the you are in the industry and you are very near to where you want to be technically ya you know so err and and and it was honestly right my mind ah is always a one track thing so let's say for example [kan] aku cakap okay I told myself ah I I want to become a pilot but err I will only think about okay how do I become a pilot how do I do this how do I do that I I wouldn't think of okay maybe there is another way maybe I can become a air steward first then I can jump into you know into a fancy and that kind of thing lah so I I don't have that kind of err presence of mind ah to think that I should do this and then it would eventually lead me on to the thing I'd go the straight out


for me, oh right, so so my my life in in this industry lah in this aviation industry started out with with simulators so it started out in the in the confines of my own in my my room uh on the computer so my dad was the one that I credit for for giving me this passion lah because he wanted to become a pilot himself tapi dia punya eyesight err macam tak err how to say eh uh not hundred percent lah not not not not a six six lah vision lah so uh and at that time [kan] dia orang very strict [kan] kalau kau punya eyesight is not perfect eyesight then you you don't even get a chance dia lain ah ah tau yes correct correct


no as in as in there's other planes there's there's other aircraft out there there's so many actually actually you are right sebab tu eh they realise eh in err in err eventually they realise that having a six six vision is not a requirement you can ya they change they change in nineteen ninety eight


nineteen ninety eight nineteen ninety nine I remember this very vividly because I still remember I was in secondary school and they the first organisation that made the change was RSAF which is the air force so dia orang uh they publicised in the newspaper the very first pilot titled pilot tau who was wearing glasses ya and they put his picture big big down there I remember man on that day I bought like three copies of the newspaper I cut out all the picture and I pasted it all over my room just just to motivate myself and say that look all is not lost because I started wearing glasses when I was primary four already ya ya so I was very I have always felt that it was an impossible dream to achieve


because because dah tak boleh apa because you dah pakai you dah pakai glasses then that's that's it lah you you no more already lah no more chance right so ah so that was what spurt on my motivation uh and and make the fire burn the fire was winning back again so after that when I was in uh so after I finished secondary school right I set my sights on the youth flying club so what I did was I join the youth flying club and I managed to pass the interview you know and and go through the the thing and I managed to err err start the flying course ah so that time uh they were offering for those people who were successful and being accepted in the course they let your parents uh fly in the aeroplane for free therefore one flight macam familiarisation flight ah so both my parents actually got the chance to to to try out lah dekat err kita pergi sana then after that apa tu they they brief us and then err they they brought my parents up and then just to show them how it's like to fly and all that lah this was a very long time ago sekarang dah takde lagi tau


that I couldn't I I didn't want to land man I didn't want to go back down to earth I wanted to keep flying, oh definitely man I will want to fly man I want to have wings man no need I don't need speed man I want to fly as high as possible


there's there's that's technically true but it's not flying lightning speed ya but when I landed when my when our plane landed and when I stepped off the plane I couldn't feel my feet lah bro I was just floating I was literally just still floating I was on cloud nine I was just I was just you know but that was the thing lah that was that was this that told me like okay you know I have to I have to make this somehow come true a dream and all that lah ya so I pursued it you know I I kept on pursuing it and I studied all that I could tapi aku I made a mistake


one of the mistakes was that I thought that I needed physics macam science ah science punya subject [kan] err I I thought that I needed science in order for me to be able to become a pilot, actually I realise I did not need to have science per se I just needed to understand the concept of flying


uh it was a mistake because I took the wrong course when I was in junior college last time ah I I'm I'm an arts person I was more of a arts person I should have taken an art subject because that's my stronger that my forte but I chose science because I thought I needed science to become a pilot but science wasn't exactly my uh my my my strong point I mean only the aerodynamic but my physics teacher was so uh puzzled because did cakap apa tau


uh eh I realised that you can do this topic very very well it was on aviation and aerodynamics ah but your other topics ah you rabak man you cannot make it why ah then I realise that but it was it was uh uh only way way way later lah then I realise that uh okay I I I actually


ah no no it was a academic uh more of a academic kind of uh mistake lah uh I mean it was a academic how to say ah misstep which which I could have my my my my potential was was was higher if I had been in arts but I chose to be in science ah which means then after that err the after that okay so after that I had another setback


and when I was uh just before I enlisted in two thousand five I think two thousand five two thousand six ah I had this medical condition so okay so backtrack a bit ah when I was in JC I had to undergo an operation which was appendix appendicitis ah so I had to remove my appendix because err it literally blow up inside my stomach ya the doctor was saying if I had err not err what err gone to the hospital lah uh if I've gone to the hospital one day later they wouldn't have been able to save me


ya ya ya it was that bad I was literally aku tak boleh bergerak I was just I I and I still remember that day was my uh examination my english paper punya examination EJC and err I couldn't I couldn't move I had to call my dad for help you know send me over then when he saw my condition he's like I'm bringing you to the hospital right now ah okay so what happens is this this this condition after I remove the appendix right


it it was okay for about a year or two but then there was a complication and it was a medical complication uh in which this this uh operation actually made my stomach lining weak, uh because they have to cut they have to cut through mah so apparently I think there's a hole there and what happens is that my my err my intestines my my innards they actually can slip through that hole and form a hernia


so it was a it was a one medical condition after another lah basically so it was first it was an appendix then uh it gradually became a hernia after two to three years now the problem with hernia is this for medical eh in a medical sector your intestines uh usually you know they're very long right and if let's say if they slide down towards your groin area ya they can get twisted


when these intestines get twisted it becomes a medical emergency and you need to have a immediate surgery to, uh apparently that can be fixed okay err and and basically what happens is uh if you fix it uh generally it won't happen but there is a chance that it might recur again after you fix it


so guess what I fixed mine two years later, it recurred again ya it recurred again so uh that was another dent in my in my in my dreams lah basically ya so that was the reason why that time you know aku pergi ah SIA punya air steward punya interview tu yang aku pass


err actually I pass the interview okay but because they they they saw the hernia condition I failed my medical that's why aku tak aku tak dapat uh jadi err air steward as well ya so in the end in the end I so you you see how how it all ties up lah how it all times ties back together


this this this this uh this condition but the good thing was I went for another op so I I fixed I fixed the condition, and uh hopefully hopefully lah ah cross my fingers that it doesn't it doesn't return again lah


!huh! this year I'm thirty five bro , so I I have already I started flying when I was uh in the US you remember there was a period of time I don't whether you know or not I was okay so I was in the US because I joined the university that is err err specifically flying related


so uh they teach you how to fly and they teach you I mean you get a degree and all there at the end of the day uh but I was in the US and it was this time when I was in the US that I actually learn and train and I and I actually got to to fly you know real real flying lah


and this was in twenty fourteen twenty fifteen somewhere around there


uh I offset from my medisave a bit and then I paid uh pakai insurance ah macam my medical insurance ah ya err for US I was working my ass off man I was working three jobs at that point of time


am I still what, in that in that in in in that ah oh debt uh I was out of debt but I think now with my new house I will be indebted again


so aku kena top up three hundred every month there is correct yes in the future lah aku aku aku I was thinking lah anyway that one is is is always an option I I'm keeping it as an option for me lah which is why I wanted a bigger place uh the other reason was because aku ada terlalu banyak barang-barang ah all my baggage my


eh I don't mind man I really don't mind kau tahu rumah aku kat mana tak dekat it's just beside admiralty MRT [jer] also admiralty MRT is at woodlands I mean the woodlands area [kan] and uh the it's only about macam five minutes


ya ya ya ya, okay what are you what are your plans you tell me your plans


okay okay yes, yes when I was in the US correct yes correct I I managed to fly with them uh ah no no no I was in a I was in a a corporate uh site I was actually doing uh business business aircraft when I was in the US


yes I was there uh okay lah it was it was uh it was it was a good it was a good experience but the problem is when you are overseas eh err your how do I put it eh you you're considered as an expat tau so expats they they are a bit particular it depends on the administration lah so that's the reason why most of us [kan] kita belajar kat sana we gain the experience then we come back here and then we we try to uh apply with the local punya okay so right now right now err so okay so so right now what happens is this eh


I managed to get myself a stint together with singapore flying college so singapore flying college needed instructors, so uh average lah it's just typical because for me and they consider they consider me as a entry level lah I'm not I'm not a macam senior captor and all that kind of thing so for me I'm more like the first officer or second officer type of uh about four K about there lah about about uh thereabouts okay so when COVID happened


yes so when COVID happened err this this whole thing the whole industry was affected everybody was you know down nobody was flying and and it was a very bad err I mean it was just a very bad timing ah it was the worst hit industry ever uh unfortunately a lot of the planes that stopped flying will never fly again you know because it it becomes too expensive to maintain them and uh they lost too much of money that is virtually impossible to to revive all these aircraft and what some of the aircraft that they operate also quite a bit old lah so so the best interest is just to retire these aircraft and they will never fight again ah


to the parts ah they get uh they they have this place in australia they call it alice springs it's a it's a aeroplane graveyard, graveyard yes so


uh some of them they do but most of them for the most part err they don't need right they just they juts leave them there lah they just leave them there too ya it's a it's a ya, they can they can but I think I mean who I mean when when they they put it there ah nobody wants to uh you know ah then there's no particular entity or organisation that actually is in charge of this lah you know to to so so the the easiest way is just to leave them there and then just you know just just leave it be lah


oh man they have a lot man I I'll show you pictures of uh of the airplane graveyard over in the US ya they have they have one in the US they have one in australia you know they have a lot lah this kind of places


correct correct it was it was another avenue and and I realise that it was uh it was an avenue that others have done before and did it and they made it so it was quite okay lah so I thought it was uh it was a good thing so I thought I I tried it out at that point in time and and I did lah and I'm glad I did you know and I'm and I'm glad we we we went through it and we we we tried it out and we try our best you know ya


yes yes yes yes that was in during reservist right I think yes I already signed kita dah sign contract kita dah sign Dok we even we even err graduated kita semua dah celebrate [seh] we went out drinking I mean


ah tak tak tak tak tak I didn't go through the I was supposed to go through yes correct I was already together with the rest of the other so called batch mates, yes I know I know I know that was thing so I mean there's there's setbacks lah along the way there's you know there's ujian there's setbacks there's uh


yes ya ya ya ya, yes yes, yes correct, ya I know right macam nasib kentang [kan] macam there's always something there to to you know but it's okay ya ya I know know I've heard of it before lah this phrase I know I know


but but for now uh I got the next best thing which is uh flying drones lah , eh it's a different skill set lah sia it's a yes yes correct I know I know I just imagine myself uh being on the drone so when I see it I was like oh okay ya lah but but by by I mean it's it's the best that I can do uh uh that's relatable and that's uh you know but I think uh they they have already announced macam plans lah you know


uh they want to push us to become uh flying instructors so ya so so I think it's just a matter of time where when this thing you know dies down and everything is uh back to normal again right uh I think you know hopefully lah hopefully I won't be too old and my age becomes a factor and I'm like shit now I'm to old aku tak boleh ah Dok flight tak boleh


I will I will make aeroplane noises flight attendants in your positions my passengers eh


ya that's the that's that's what I I hope not to happen ah but if that ever happens ah you will know why ah you know all about the history behind it lah you can tell people oh yes I know this guy I know what happened to him ya lah yes yes yes so this is his story this is his autobiography his life story you know oh my goodness


yes, yes yes yes, effort yes yes


ya ya ya ya ya I, (mmhmm)


okay, okay


okay, ah, ya ya of course ya ya I agree


yup yup yup yup yup correct that's true that's true, no lah


ya ya no I actually have plans to go back to the US because because I feel that that is where err that is where all the opportunities lie and and I feel that err you know because I was there you see I I I I was in the like I was living the lifestyle you know so I thought that err but but the problem is right now is a very bad time to go back there lah because they they have the highest number of cases of COVID nineteen in florida and all that correct so I mean the the dude lah the bugger orange hair bugger yes you know he's he's he's not doing his job lah


, ya, because he doesn't care he doesn't care


ya yes yes yes yes yes yes, ya yes yes, yes yes actually you are right you are right I I agree tapi dia dia punya orang he's not a war err what you call it eh he's not those ya he's a very selfish businessman but he's not the type of war mongering you know guy that that

!wow! almost going to deliver lah oh my god ah she get ah she married err last year december or what !wah! okay lah oh ya good lah ya but I I I feel lah sister I don't know how you will take it I think it's better for your son ah to get a rental house or what ah to stay together lah


ah I mean this is better because you see now they going to have a baby and going to have a family is not nice like you stay one place one place and the bonding <tamil>அவ்வளவா:avalavaa</tamil> stronger <tamil>இருக்காது காசு போனா பரவாள்ள:irukkaathu kaasu ponaa paravalla</tamil> just get a rental house ah and then err let them stay together don't like here and there it's not very proper lah I feel lah I don't know how you feel


it must soon before the baby comes in you must search already don't wait because once she go on maternity leave ah then she will not be able to go and look for a house or what so now already you have to go and source for the house get the thing all sanitized err the house all keep clean once the baby come in you can shift into the new house already ah


yah doesn't matter but it for the both couples ah uh just get a house so that they can stay together then if the baby need to come and stay maybe a few days also there will be a house for the child lah you know a not ah very important lah in a <tamil>எனக்கு அப்டிதா மனசுக்கு படுது இந்த மாதிரி தனி தனியா இருக்க விடாதீங்க:enakku apdithaa manasukku paduthu intha maathiri thani thaniya irukka vidatheenga</tamil> right ah <tamil>நல்லதில்ல அந்த:nallathila antha</tamil> family <tamil>பாதிக்கும் அது ஒரு:baathikkum athu oru</tamil>


like <tamil>குடும்ப பிணைப்பு மாதிரி இருக்காது ஏன் கண்ணோட்டத்துல:kudumba pinaippu maathiri irukkaathu yen kannottathula</tamil> ah that's why when my son married ah no matter how difficult the finance going to be I told my son the moment you married that very day you'll get a rental house because his house is not ready for shifting and stay in a rental house


for four months he stayed then he went into his new house so from the start ah you know you know like the the honeymoon period is very important right ah you cannot turn back the clock ya


ya ya


you know not it's very important for a husband or wife to stay together unless, ya because if they're working in a foreign country that is a different thing because you cannot force a person to stay together but they are the same country ah is better to stay together lah ah


but I'm happy lah I mean at least ah I mean she also how old is she, [orh], okay then okay she is time for her to also like to be a mother lah like my son was delaying to be err having a family lah but this year my daughter in law said my son is ready to start a family lah then my daughter in law was so happy so she's planning lah but I leave it to god lah because sometime this start thing is not in our hands I mean god knows when to give them but I said god don't delay too much err please have them


I just want at least one grandchild boy or girl doesn't matter but I want to be a grandma lah that is my wish err at least give ya so I ya that's why I hope so lah because ya thank you sister thank you

is a lot of err ya ya not much of a stress you know rushing the MRT


true true true ah ah, no I think they are encouraging err more companies to allow the workers to work from home because they find that


moving forward in life ah err because of the digital thing ah err most of the companies are using a laptop and , you know like err you can be mobile lah like portable you know you can bring your laptop anywhere so it's not like you are fixed on one place you know so a lot of


things can be done when you work from home, true true true,


ya thank you thank you and I got the <tamil>முமுழுமையா அந்த பாட்டு தெரியாது:muzhumayaa antha paattu theriyaathu</tamil> but err <tamil>கொஞ்ச வரிகள் எனக்கு தெரியும்:konja varigal enakku theriyum</tamil> ah so


I will try to sing one song full lah ah no there's only two sisters are in the choir and I also don't know how to sing all the song, so if I agree then it will be a problem because I myself don't know all the songs


ya but ya but once you commit yourself you have to do it lah so for me at the moment I don't want to have any, err much commitment lah unless I'm okay with it ah then I can fully commit if not once you commit then you say you can't do this timing you are not available very difficult


ah so I said better not lah ya true true but during the christmas the time ah err not last year the year before I think two thousand eighteen err not not two thousand eighteen

so for my own knowledge because you see moving forward ah I think this world is going to be digital so if you are not IT savvy ah, computer savvy you will be like backward now and very difficult to do a lot of business or anything on your on yourself lah


so now I'm so happy this pandemic ah have taught me many things lah to be independent firstly ah I was so skeptical about internet banking but then my boss ordered for us a headset


and err he told us to pay by paynow and I don't have a paynow so he told me that moving forward I have to learn and use this app so I told myself that I will do it lah, so I went into the uh my phone app then I do it myself lah but then I managed to install the app and then now I feel that it's so convenient I can do the transaction


by paynow ah and then internet banking is another thing I can sit at home and even check my salary I can even check what is the transaction balance I have in my account so I feel that this is very very good, ya it help me a lot lah sister


(mmhmm)


ya so you also start using err internet banking ah, very good very good very good it's okay it's okay I mean the most important is to transfer and to check your balance account


yes yes yes yes very good very good

then, actually many things we can do in life lah it's all in our hand right sister, oh he is taking this opportunity to take up courses by courses my god last month already he took five courses ah then this month he took another two more courses


so I told him lah I was just joking to him I think singapore will give you a the most err err most course taking award citizen , because for me I like to take course but I don't like to take exam but he loves to take exam also he's a person ah he don't mind taking exam ah for me I feel so stressed taking exam but he likes to take exam also

another five hundred will be put into your account in october know sister for your skill err fund that means you will have one thousand already skill fund


yes five hundred before they put now err as at this year ah err april they announce right they say that they are putting in the skill fund five hundred more but you can only use it in october but like the security course I'm going right now they can use advance you know that means they can use the money earlier


ah because for this course the five hundred the earlier one not enough for me so I will eat into the another five hundred which they put for me ah so, I no need no need I no need wait until october I doing the course next month so I can use in advance lah


ah so easier for me lah


ya <tamil>இல்ல இது வந்து:illa ithu vanthu</tamil> you never use it ah it will be burnt you know ah and you cannot transfer to anybody of your family members you only can use no you can use


it not mean you must use within the year but there is a time frame you will have to use within five years time or what I think so I not sure but if you've never use at all it will be burnt is a waste many people out there they are not aware aware of this fund ah or they


they because most of the courses you attend you'll have to do an assessment so some people afraid to do the assessment test and then they don't go for this skill fund course cause skill fund course all the courses most of it you have to sit for a assessment assessment is err is like a test like that lah

ah especially for those seniors know so you can go to that kind of err set up ah and tell them that you want to err have a maybe a short hours, err job just a part time job that will suit you for your age lah so they can match you or maybe they can even send you for training and then from there you can match ah there are many I think areas ah they're doing even my #ang mo kio# area they are also doing it


ah ah even ah err some arts err even some CC's ah they're organizing these err certain days ah, err like err roadshows err to have this type of people to come down to to register themself lah


, ya,


, , ya ya


ya I'm sure you will get something lah a job that is more suitable lah there are many jobs lah but some of the jobs are hidden we won't even know such a job existing


, ya ya


last time my sister told me lah a lot of uh people like from india ah the woman housewives ah they will go and do packing you know like <tamil>மசாலா லாம்பண்றது:masala lam pandrathu</tamil> they need a lot of women to do packing like <tamil>பருப்பு:paruppu</tamil> pack <tamil>பண்றதுக்கு:pandrathuku</tamil> you will be inside the room ah not facing the public then you will do lah


ah under <tamil>அந்த மாதிரி:antha maathiri</tamil> job <tamil>இருந்துச்சுனா:irunthuchuna</tamil> a few hours ah you can at least earn a little bit of income lah I checked with my brother in law because he's a he have some contact for this kind of err supermarket his friend is working I check with them whether they still need people a not then I let you know lah


, ya and then some more if it's a few hours only you're not going to wear for the whole day ya at least you have one income ah for your ownself lah I mean for for your own expenses it will be very helpful sister because in the long run you no need to depend on anybody ah financially you are sound ah you feel more


err healthier also because you know yes you feel like worth you are also doing something for the society you know like worthwhile lah,


ya ya no very important that one I think it will be very useful for you don't don't overlook it <tamil>இத வந்து ரெண்டு நாள்:itha vanthu rendu naal</tamil> course <tamil>அத எப்டியாவது வந்து:atha epdiyaavathu vanthu</tamil> attend <tamil>பண்ணிருங்க:pannirunga</tamil> under skill fund <tamil>பண்றாங்க:pandraanga</tamil> I think our <tamil>நெறைய:niraya</tamil> training centers conduct <tamil>பண்றாங்க:pandraanga</tamil> ah even the facebook they put it sometimes right


ya, ya ya <tamil>நெறைய:neraya</tamil> courses <tamil>இருக்கு:irukku</tamil> because <tamil>இப்ப வந்து:ippa vanthu</tamil> err the pandemic <tamil>நால இப்ப வந்து:naala ippa vanthu</tamil> <tamil>நெறைய பேர் வேலை இல்லாம இருக்காங்க அதநெனச்சு பாக்கும்போது வேலை இல்லாம இருக்கறது ஒரு விசியம் ஆனா ஆரோக்யமா இருக்கு அது கடவுளோட கிருபை கை இருக்கு கால் இருக்கு கண் இருக்கு:neraya per velai illama iirukkanga atha nenachu paakkumbothu vela illama irukrathu oru visiyam aana aarokkiyama irukku athu kadavuloda kirubai kai irukku kaal itrrukku [kan] irukku</tamil> so


a useful person to you know encourage others also right ah so <tamil>அந்த வகையில பாக்கும்போது:antha vagayila paakumbothu</tamil> , I also want to learn lah because I I feel that, at first when I work from home I was so skeptical about it I think why should I work from home a lot of things I have to learn but now I like it because why know I learned how to you know like password err security ah you have to err learn one thing ah the app to put the security so to send email so that one I learn then ah you have to sign


the form visually know not on the paper that means how you sign on the computer so that one also I learnt so this is all something new for me so now I feel like eh I've learnt so many things then I feel like I mean


actually is quite knowledgeable to learn all this lah it's not difficult but if you are a person who are teachable ah you can learn anything lah it's not impossible


no need no need to learn digital but it's always good to know because moving forward ah we have to download a lot of apps and we must know about it


ya zoom I because I taking bible study my english bible study course every tuesday now we are on break so in the bible class because of the pandemic we cannot go face to face we are doing zoom lessons


zoom lessons ah my leader told us to download after I download then she is the host of the meeting lah so she applied for the zoom host meeting I think


one hour they give free lah those who want to use more than one hour have to pay so her family is using zoom for other reason so she she paid subscribe to it so she's the host so when she invite us for the meeting we will go into the zoom


then we can see each other lah then we will talk whatever we talk audio it will be recorded, ya is is a different thing but zoom is another thing skype some of my company err meetings ah we have in skype so skype also same like err zoom


skype you can either go on audio that means don't see the person face or you can also err put to on a video and see the person's face, err so I have learnt skype or zoom zoom is very important nowadays even children are using zoom for their school lessons so yes


ya so nothing is like you said you don't know how to use zoom means like you're backward already so now zoom is something is like a trend already is not like something very new for people ah so it's best to learn about zoom I mean it's not easy


it's not difficult it's it's not easy but is is okay is user friendly app lah


now the seafood pizza is so nice you know then yesterday was a fasting day for me lah every friday right so from eight o'clock to nine o'clock we fast but normally eight o'clock too early for me so I fast from nine thirty to nine thirty lah, so I take my breakfast before nine thirty AM so I fasted all the way I only took one milk and a kiwi fruit for lunch lah

oh oh okay sorry sorry


like where you want to eat,


, err


like


can ah but here's the thing lah we need to make it in a organic fashion ya


okay, so


okay here's here's my thoughts on what is going on with his, so you know how err your phone is actually recording the shit you say right and adds for you right


chinese isn't I mean they do in china already lah so I think they can take the data from there, they don't have any local data sets for malay and tamil, they want personalized ads towards us but they're hitting a roadblock lah because you can't decipher what we are speaking


you think about it we we are a small subset of the population right that's why they are not able to like crack into us, this is the turning point already


that's why we just don't talk anything personal


here's the thing if we talk about wider variety of subjects right including all our nonsense right I think we are creating a more robust AI


they should be thanking uslahfor our efforts


no I don't know why in india is it normal to sing out like this in public


there was one err indian guy like foreign worker in the train then he started like holding the pole, then he hold the pole then he like leaned backwards, (hmm) no I I was moving it, so he held the pole then he just like leaned backwards then he started singing some uh some tamil song


then !wah! <tamil>பச்சை கிளி வானம்:pachaikilivaanam</tamil> in the MRT


no you got listen to this stupid rush hour comedy or not the the the guy the kung fu master is a


the the the chris chris tucker and err jackie chan remember right rush hour so they they enter some like kung fu studio lor, then the old the sensei in charge is a, he sign some, old guy his name is uh


so MI I think me, then he say who are you say I am me, they say we know you're you, then he then he say you you don't get it then he started doing some bullshit like that lah


ya she does ah she's from sri lanka, how can I improve it uh how can I improve it uh


no serious serious, I don't even watch movies


no lah mostly I use reddit


youtube, I should ah


(hmm), I will just leave lah,


ya but my screen is off already


well I think it would are they going to overlap the audio


I I gave our names ah full names, they ask for full name, the thing the, the the whatsapp


no my family don't speak tamil at home I don't know it's just like that


a lot of my my cousins also they don't speak tamil at home


no no uh I also want want ask you a serious question like improve my tamil so should I start reading or not, my tamil's very broken ah I understand what everybody's saying lah but but I find it very hard ya I I never speak ah


no I never I only speak with my grandmother, no my father's tamil is quite okay but he doesn't really use it much my mother's tamil is is I think quite good considering that she never go to she study taml she never study tamil in school


she was from malaysia what she study malay in school ya she don't my mother cannot read tamil


no they never give the names, uh


no lah I stressed lah I my tamil quite shit lah I feeling very self concious now, it's okay


oh oh so you wanna play like that lah


it it's from the eighties ah some some some some some ah from some I don't know lah my father like to play tamil songs sometimes when we eat


no you play on youtube


you how else will people get to the middle of the frozen lake even though it's like mildly frozen, honestly ya is bullshit lah you probably be skiing across the lake,


I don't know scarborough is like a hood like that


toronto


send me a send me send me, okay for singapore what areas of interest would you explore


only got tamil people, we can start off uh


okay we need to look at like our market lah you you want to look, talk about you are talking to who


okay lor, we must break it down topic by topic lah right like what would you want to talk about first, for me maybe where first we can consider uh barbers


then we can uh explore maybe little india or what, then uh, what what else is a necessities groceries


, can just talk about temple


ah


no it's called reinforcement lah you when you talk to baby also okay there are two schools of thoughts, thought when it comes to talking to babies one is you don't give them like baby talk you give them like a adult talk then they will get more exposure to natural language


but then I that is I think less prevalent thought ah for me I there's uh the other one is baby talk why baby talk you will repeat a lot of the same syllables over and over again why is that important eventually the babies right will learn to mimic this and they will they can vocalize the syllables and they learn how to speak quickly


because you you're you're saying the same thing over and over again, I'm not sure exactly how it learns


wonder how big the data set is for this ah, in the past err, the last time someone came here was thirtieth


before that right, before that the last last few people came on the eighteen, no what but it has not been filled from eighteen to the thirtieth so I will believe that the the


the list is only for people who are out not working there


in the novel


oh, okay


he I think there's a mood point lah if if either uh both of us are but Dinesh is not then, then I think it's it's quite useless I think he had it recently maybe that's why


I think it's more worth for lunch


I think it it KBBQ is better for bigger groups ah let's say if we meet for dinner ya lah like maybe like four five people


no lah I making things up what, no lah but, KBBQ how much is it, how much


ah shit, okay


we just go to the non halal one, no seoul garden is halal, we go we go to one, the non halal one where they serve pork also


you don't like sushi right, you want to go we get some nice sushi or not we get somewhere nice, I search some places no I'm not


but uh uh reservation <tamil>போடுறது உண்டு தெரியாதப்பா:podrathu undu theriyathappa</tamil> must we book a reservations, no no


okay uh, you you wanna try some other place or not if you want to ball a bit why not we eat in a restaurant


here's the thing we get we eat somewhere like maybe like sushi tei or around that standard we order our own like dish, no no no is is restaurant

#tiong bahru#


wait ah I checking


okay for okay I'm not gonna talk about classified military shit on on here ah let us let us change the topic, ah


woodlands orchard, sure how sir I'm not


no buffet cannot there's no such thing as buffet because sushi they just make it on the spot what, conveyor belt is you take as many as you want mah you just pay the price at the endcc


you order by plate and then they count the plate whatokay no genki is not your traditional conveyor belt where everything is flowing genki is a is a is not a conveyor belt is, is a normal restaurant what is alahcarte


if they don't it's not on a belt what it's just the delivery system replaces waiters, with a train, if you think about it you conveyor belt is you just grab whatever is there or if you want to order stuff also you can order then it'll come on the belt then hopefully someone doesn't grab it lah


okay


there's no menu the okay the price is quite high lah <tamil>ஒரு:oru</tamil> plate two twenty


they put on the on the news the article, it just say that is the price lah there isn't a menu I cannot find I open in the facebook also


there is just the promo there's they don't have a website their website is the japan the japanese website back in japan, but but uh


but but I think, ya the one at the shaw has higher ratings


okay actually the japanese website maybe got got the menu, no it will have the type of sushi and all that what


no okay doesn't work like that I tell you what, california right it's not something that that is found on a conveyor belt, it's you order it then it comes


a lot a lot of place right the california roll right, you all is, the sushi restaurant works like this lah like like in singapore lah, you order like a main dish for yourself lah which is like rice or noodles or whatever, then you order like a platter of sushi then you all share from me


from there you can order like one roll of california roll


the one at SOTA lah, now will be crowded it's a long weekend


(hmm) long weekend a lot of people will be going out, shit


, ya we talking for one hour you got been to lucky star barber at the beauty world or not okay is a is a tamil barber lah


, coke can he will give a coke can there then he will like pat your back and then if you are young lah me and Peekay went before


no it's a it's a level one it's on outside


that's fucked up leh, okay that's that's messed up lah that's very unhygienic because everytime you go for a barber you will you will look what


is he changing or not, that is something that is always on your mind right, no what that for me everytime I go they always use the blade what


you're talking about those like err, err like just car those ah could be they there there they don't use blades


okay ya you can there's a malay barber near my place also lah I rarely go to him I only go if the other barbers are closed, so err but what happened because sometime I will need to cut hair for school or what what


so this guy he's you know what he does or not he's he's old already right seventy years old already then I don't know what lah his hand will shake or what, so sometimes he will cut he he will accidentally cut me, at the back of my head or my ears ya got bleeding you know what's the best part he will like wipe and then he pretend like nothing happen I ask everything okay or not


then you will say oh everything's okay then at the end of the at the end of the haircut I feel with my hand right I feel blood, you know <tamil>மொட்டை அடிக்க:mottai adika</tamil> because they they do very fast right


twenty cents

supposed to understand the tamil we are speaking what


the the AI whhen you plug it in right I I just wondering lah will it understand tamil or not oh okay


then the data set also I think they they have to build a verbal data set because <tamil>பேச்சு தமிழ்:pechu tamizh</tamil> tamil is very different from the the the normal tamil


no because here's the thing on his job portal right I saw another advertisement they paying like I think twenty dollars or what for someone to read out four hundred sentences from a book

debaters and all that and apparently he like like had sex had sex with them all rape them all what, no no okay this actually went the news you will find you don't you don't have to do that you know child's you not charles you know is is a lawyer lah who ran the reform party


otherwise we're yes you already okay tell me use your medical knowledge, you first the you want to knockout or injure person that these are the most sensitive venus heals the temples temples ah where you hit loving about going ba da le coil fired a whampoa know about maybe that's where they start than the embodies where your slowly okay okay you don't heed the the forehead


in march to a degree then your jaw also, you know you hit the person jaw right that's how you not them lah, why you you knew jammu especially if the mouth is open draw move your head over tilt and shake


some caution, that's why when you fight right you don't keep your mouth open, you will draw a be loose, and you want to cause a lot of pain also you hit the area between the nose and the the

ya sure


in the new they won't come in during the recording I mean they have this all descend mindset time over here you will be a bit to silly latest came in and then interrupted halfway you take the data collection of data set, I want my my screens of err I'm looking at my I my my clock and watch you know the microphone is oh


wait sometimes to the screen terms on myself, wait is to screen on, was it off, 'cause you just now I said the screen is off, and then the screen tandem herself

K lah talk talk nonsense lah


they don't, don't don't use behavior

<tamil>ஆள காட்டு ஆள காட்டு:aala kaatu aala kaatu</tamil> you want to hear a joke or not


I tell you a joke in tamil


anyway ten percent of the recording is what sixty minutes so six minutes must be tamil, okay lah I think should be able to ah we already talk two minutes in tamil already


as in the okay the tamil part we don't need to force it to be as in we don't force it we just speak normally then if the tamil comes in then is okay


but then why why why ah why do these people so I think they are digital services company, then they they, they are outsourcing it for AI


so they are using this for AI to train so I can


choose an ads for less for for for specific people, I see very interesting so very interesting


although I'm a bit scared that considering it's a chinese company, ya no identifiable information then should be fine, actually now also like you never mention name or anything so that's when


they I don't know who is err


the company oh my god you damn stupid you know you don't know what you are talking about don't know what you are not supposed to say


we're talking about so many random things we talked about food then you talk about mcdonald's <tamil>ஆள காட்டவானே அப்புறம் அப்புறம் என்ன:aala kaatavaane apuramapuram enna</tamil> shall we sing some psycho mithra songs, <tamil>அந்த தண்ணி இந்த தண்ணி:antha thanni intha thanni</tamil> oh that's a good song


actually you should bring that guy here lah and then make him sing

your parents don't speak tamil to each other meh, why she never say study tamil in school


oh interesting okay lah enough personal details lah, you don't want the AI to know about your whole life


we should talk about random things like, corona viruses, then the AI will know maybe the AI will be the next key to finding the cure the corona virus, very interesting


who is the guy you message when you came here was it this guy, but must be declared like that cause he say see you at two PM, why you keeping so quiet can you talk nonsense or not

they they I think one of them is maybe sixteen or seventeen years old the other guys like maybe twelve or eleven maybe around that kind of age then two of them they vlog their life in canada but the whole throughout the whole vlog right they only speak tamil


which is quite good lah, only like let's say for example they say uh <tamil>இன்னைக்கு நாங்க வந்து:innaiku naanga vanthu</tamil> there's this indian place I forgot what it's called <tamil>இன்னைக்கு நாங்க பிரியாணி சாப்பிட போனோம்:innaiku naanga briyani sapda ponom</tamil> then they will show us the the the place then they go inside then they will eat the briyani all oh they will take away then go back then say <tamil>இன்னைக்கு இன்னைக்கு வந்து பன்னிரெண்டு:innaiku innaiku vanthu pannirendu</tamil> degrees <tamil>இன்னைக்கு வந்து முப்பது:innaiku vanthu muppathu</tamil> degrees <tamil>நல்ல மழை பெஞ்சுச்சு:nalla mazhai penjuchu</tamil> or something like that then after that as in they will show us the life in canada as a as a tamil people lah


and there's a lot of sri lanka as in most of the tamil shops in canada are sri lankan what so you can see ya ya I know they live in scarborough I not even joking eh wait is it scarborough, no no no wait it's another place


, no I think they live in scarborough, ya ontario right no, I don't know where's scarbarough is, but ya lah they live in a tamil very very high tamil population which is probably scarborough lah and it's literally like you go down then the all the shops so like all tamil shops got tamil groceries got the


what is this, I think got uh vegetarian restaurant got <tamil>சரவணபவன்:saravanabavan</tamil> also, err, whatever they have, I also don't know already, so a lot of thereby they have nice in places that


but ya they we should start a vlog like that sir what what what do you think is the chances of starting a vlog like that


nobody's only for tamil people, as in most of the most of their viewers are from india or like NRI living uh like different places and then they just like err


the all of the most of some of the comments are in tamil also actually a lot a lot of the comments are in tamil they always say like oh <tamil>ரெண்டு பெரும் நல்லா நல்லா செய்றீங்க பா தமிழன்:rendu perum nalla nalla seireenga pa tamizhan</tamil> they will just say something about tamil and be like ya good stuff good stuff, things like that


we can talk ya lah we can talk about we can talk to the other tamils lah then the the same audience that they have lah but it's just instead of them doing canada we do to singapore


(mmhmm), uh they okay they they talk about weather okay weather here is pretty much a constant


ya they never show temple actually it's quite


I think have what if scarborough is so many tamil people confirm have tample, so many places is it even in the, err what is that


there are that the north new jersey that side all is mostly south indians I think, but then like


no no no is tamil people like thing, some no no actually no I don't think so there's very few tamil people in in, in america, most of them are like south like telugu, or, or malu ya exactly different people and then we change tamil


his name is Sundarpichai, let the AI don't know about google,


, very very portable


, so you were saying that the AI is the same as a baby, no lah but AI like is is isn't it like they take the whole


poll data set then they proceed through the machine then the machine learnt one by one like all this is this is this, like you already pre pre intermine the certain data set then, you feed more data that's unknown like for example you already say that okay this word means this then you you you have a set of that then you feed that to the machine


then the machine will see oh okay this is this this is this is this then after that you feed a data set that is unclassified then they will look through the to find the similarities and then, volume based ya lah that's why lah they they give a initial data set even that is probably huge already then the


other data sets are probably even bigger, what's the one we doing now, I don't know how many people they got what depends on how many people they got


okay, no but the thing is that the attendance list it's just for anyone that comes into this office


so how many people are on the list, twelve, ya lah I mean it's quite hard to get enough people what, no but you think about if twelve people came there's twelve hours of recording


no six hours of recording, cause there has to be a pair what, I feel like just starting to read the tamil novel, no but cannot be a reading thing what it has to be a conversation


but we still haven't decided where you want to eat sir so please decide, okay what haven't we tried yet


no but I don't know and as in are you okay are you down for KBBQ


no he just said it's not a dinner thing I mean if, if okay no no no okay you ignore him for a while you just say are you down to eat korean barbecue yes or no that's all I want to know, lunch


who is going to be four four five people we also don't know anyone like four five people as in don't need to mention names lah but


won't come lah, I already say don't mention names lah why you so stupid, err probably thirty bucks per person


so twenty times ya so thirty times three is ninety divide by minus thirty is sixty what sixty is twenty bucks only which is quite cheap dude for dinner time, even if we went lunctime right you pay the same price what's the difference


you choose lah, ya I know we can go seoul garden is non halal wait


then you get more choices but then you have to convince Dinesh to come, ya okay lah as in okay we will ask him okay so but our first choice is KBBQ okay fine then alternative that we can go where we can subsidies using this this whatever place


it's inside a box right okay okay !huh!, oh oh right ya okay fine, err what was I saying no ya okay no you know any sushi places or not


actually honestly I thought it'll be damn slow but it's already close to half an hour already , I'm quite amazed by how fast it is


I don't mind okay dude I honestly I think we can go to genki in there's a genki in marina square there's a genki in err marina square
