    I love that a group that started in my home country, with mostly Asian-Australians, has blown up to the point of reaching huge Asian-American UA-camrs and even Asians in Asia as well. It's cool seeing that we can all relate to these tiny things despite being so far away, and also cool seeing things that only one certain group of people can relate to and learning about their lives as well.

    • @morewongfu
      @morewongfu  5 років тому +17

      Thanks to all our Asian-Australians for commenting! We actually didn't know it started in Australia, how awesome!! In the end, it's amazing how this little group grew so quickly and was able to bond thousands of us across the world. 😊

      @CommanderVinegar 5 років тому +5

      My Aussie friends invited me to it in the early days of the group. For me someone halfway around the world, it was really cool and funny to see that other Asians that grew up with immigrant parents grew up experiencing the exact same things that I did. I think that's why the group has such a global appeal, like Wes mentioned, nobody talks about these things but everyone has experienced them.

    I remember the exact date i was added by my brother, it was on the 16th of september, there was around 8,500 members and I had around 10 mutual friends on the group (I am from Sydney). The memes were hilarious and so relatable especially because they were Asian-Australian specific, it really felt like a close-knit community who could understand all the unspoken similarities we all shared within the country. I added the one friend I was with (there was a feeling of exclusivity and pride being an earlier member), and the most liked post (I think it was the egg and tomato meme) had around 600 likes. Less than a couple days later, I had around 60 mutuals on the page and the member amount had jumped to almost 100k. Memes from the page filled my newsfeed so much I thought I was scrolling through the group all the time, and my notifications were blowing up from all the tags, it was great.
    Come november, the group was gradually becoming more globalised, first with Canadians to finally americans and other global citizens. Original memes were becoming recycled and words like lg's and bubble tea were changing to ABG's and Boba. Still to this day, I quite enjoy the memes, although they are becoming quite americanised, its interesting to see how I can relate to people living across the world from me. I would confidently say around 90% of Australian Asians living in metropolitan cities have been added to the page (everyoneee knows about the page here), but its cool seeing a lot Americans in these comments asking to be added and acting the same to how I was when I had just been added.

It’s been so awesome being apart of a supportive culture and we all aspire to break ceilings ☺️

    Some of my friends are the admin's of the page and I was one of the first's to be invited to the group.
    In the initial week of it's launch no one in the group would have imagined that it'd become the scale that it is now. From what was intended as uniquely Melbourne Australian Asian, quickly becoming uniquely whole of Australian Asian; it was reliable in a sense of being 'the' Facebook page for the Australian Asian community.
    Now picking up ground globally, I think it's great that the page is more diverse in relatable posts/memes and we're able to get an insight on other Asian communities.
    With it quickly gaining recognition in articles, even being acknowledged by UA-camrs such as Wong Fu themselves, I'm excited to see where the future of this page lies.
    I just hope the admins are able to do more with the page rather than it just being a 24/7 asian meme content.

    I think that the reason for the success is that everyone has a chance to submit content and make their own jokes, everyone can have a moment of fame. on traditional pages, its a small group of people posting all the memes, but with the groups, everyone can be involved
    not to mention having 800k+ ppl able to post makes the group virtually 24/7, its taken over my entire feed lol (no complaints tho, made facebook wayy better and I spend so much time on there now compared to before the group)

    Omg I remember when I was first invited to the group, I think there was about 1000+ people and I thought it would only gain as much popularity as my uni's confessions page... but got damn it blew up 😂As the Americans came into the group it made me realise some similarities and differences between Aussie-Asians and American-Asians. I used to be stuck on that page for hours until my battery ran out and constantly tagging and being tagged HAHAHA
    I'll be honest tho, I don't scroll through it as much anymore because I find it less relatable now as there are too many American-Asian specific posts... but its still interesting to me to learn about the subtle differences in culture such what you call an "ABG", we would refer to as LG and how we literally refer to "boba" as milk tea or bubble tea. And those polls/posts about which suburb was the "best"; omg I wanna see an international version of that, Sydney's most popular Asian suburbs vs California's
    All in all I'm glad that this group is bringing every Asian person who grew up in a western country together, and we can all joke around about our struggles and celebrate our many Asian cultures ❤️
