"I am happy with my life" is something we all should aspire. Beautiful lady.
Most people I know are happy with their lives. Like attracts like 🙏
Mew Tje happiness is overrated and selfish. Making progress for humanity is the ultimate goal, which requires sacrifice. I hate it when people say everyone should strive to be happy. Raping makes a rapist happy should strive foe that?
Yeah that's remarkable to hear given that a lot of Indians aren't happy with their lives in India and are moving elsewhere
I love that too :)
@@thomasgant2056 who hurt you
Why do they translate when she says "Tamil" as "Indian"? She's clearly saying "Tamil"
Cause the Singaporean government sees people as four groups/ethnicities for official purposes.

Well she's been speaking it 50 odd years longer than you
@@OlObuffalo that is also true
I love it because it's so unlikely to see someone who doesn't look like me but yet speaks Tamil with such sweetness
At last she said " I'm happy with my life " that makes a complete story
I'm truly sure... this mom very beautiful at young age . ...
By race she is Chinese but by ethnicity she is now india❤
What an awesome beautiful small documentary..And it shows how artificial the divides that we have created are, and how the underlying humanity, love, and generosity is universal.
This is inspirational, God bless you😇
A beautiful woman indeed!
Ok but 2:12 she looks SO GORGEOUS IN OMG
2:06 wow she's really beautiful. I bet she was pursued by many guys during her youth.
She is a Chinese born, Singaporean Tamil, adopted by parents of Indian descent ... above all she is beautiful and blessed🥰
Singaporean Tamil???..
Singaporean Indian
@@xi_c_ayushprashar5950 TAMIL FIRST
I'm glad that she's satisfied with life. :)
In SINGAPORE, a lot of Chinese were adopted by Indian families during Japanese war time (1942-1945).
My grandmother is also a Chinese but was adopted by Indian family. She can't speak Mandarin, but speaks fluent Tamil. Its very common here in Singapore. Anyway i am truly happy for this granny also. She resembles my grandmother! Most importantly she mentioned that she is very happy and that's what everyone wish for. God bless Singapore!
That is so nice. Happy for you guys.
Singaporean here but didnt know abt this! Cool info!

They are called chindi
@@Babumoshai.. chindians are offsprings of a chinese and indian. This lady is chinese by birth but adopted by indians. However her kids are chindians.
Hello frds... Well I m born in India.. But my parents are Tibetan .. Some times we call our selves as refugee.. But for me.. India is my mother land.. So I always say to our other Indian brothers that I m 24 carat Indian.. Coz my heart always beat for indiap
tenzin nyima Thank you for saying that, it means a lot.
Recently I’ve been noticing some ethnic Tibetans trying to immigrate to other countries where they may have a better quality of life... but I hope you and your family get big success here and see that this is where you’ve big future, just like the rest of us.
Jai Hind
tenzin nyima :-You might have heard or studied about SIBI Chakravarthi who gave refugee to certain fauna they sought refuge from the arrows of a hunter !.We have given refuge to anyone who sought our help and gave sanctuary in India!.Giving help at the right time is essential!.When your Dalai Lama and all the Tibetans came,we welcomed with open arms!.It doesn't matter that the Chinese who Swallowed Marxian communism(leaving their age old culture and way of life) got angry with India for the help given to you!.They thought that we are against them and attacked us in 1962.
A lot of Tibetans in himachal. India is home away from home.
Bhai🙋
U are not different . U are the one and the same. But it's the eye which perceives differently.
she could be mistaken for northeastern indian.
I’d love that northeasterners look Chinese, as they can access two of the best worlds.
Lol true
This guys wants to divide india's unity and some dumb shitters is saying YES 😂.

Ya but they are indian too...i love northeast people specialy sikkim...they are so kind...and what a hospitality ....Proud on them brother👍👍
@@e-sshhhan6486 i wonder how you read so much into it. He just stated a fact that you can any day mistake her for a north eastern indian. It's just a basic fact. There is no propaganda here.
Tats what I thought at first.
She was looking like a Tamil movie heroine in her wedding picture. So serene!
Amanga..... Yes :D
Jaya pradha 🎉
I see her as Indian, just by the way she moves.
Haha, why that is funny to me!!... Are you hinting that they swerve heavily left and right?
Pinapple Studios she's an Indian herself and how is that suppose to be racist 😂
Stephen Zakaria is called gaja gamini
He is just a acknowledging an Indian characteristics of her that proves she is "Indian". People/Kids nowadays are so senstitive/do it on purpose to stir up trouble. Singaporeans can never live together peacefully if you kids are so sensitive.
Exactly. The way she moves, the way she dresses and does her hair and makeup, the way she speaks, everything about her body language. I can see that she's Chinese in blood, but it's very clear that she's not Chinese in culture or identity.
Just goes to show all this identity crisis that prevent people adopting is not always true. It’s about love, happiness and acceptance.
EmbunWidia Yh they even weighed my friend and took full medical before letting her adopt. Then it took a year to process a baby from birth. So he was 1 years old because social services are slow! Poor baby was in foster care instead of a loving family!
Sin Vee you are 1000% correct. Race,sexuality,transexualty is not important to happiness but love and respect. As jesus said love thy neighbour as youself.Even though i am more inclined to follow Buddah,those words of christ are so profound
Sin Vee In England the social services might not allow it at all.
i want to adopt but as a man without a partner they don't want to allow me
Konstantin I want to too but a single lady. Plus not perfect health but a heart full of love to share. Maybe one day.
She is beautiful both inside and out
Maina woo bin you're that Assamese person..who has a Bengali friend.

See Min Lim I think 47 years ago
You just made up this story. Indians discriminate females so badly.
John Ferguson not true, in many minor villages in places such as Haryana it is seen but its not very common. So thats why when even one case is reported, it creates an uproar. If you look at history, only Hinduism gives value to females and even pray to female Gods while in every other religion, God is depicted as male. They say when a girl child is born, Goddess Laxmi has come (translates to luck and wealth, happiness). I remember my Indian friend whose Dad used to say she was their lucky star, she’s a doctor now.
John Ferguson You talk as if Indians ALL act like that. do you know that there're more than 20 languages, NATIVE ones, spoken in India alone?...
Moral of the story : no matter who we are, where we come from, all we want is a happy life!
@Sheri Pardue ya kill the swan , ate the meat , now im full , wht a wonderful life
@Sheri Pardue 😆😆😆😆
I was so touched by this gentle woman. I am so happy for her when she said "I am happy with my life." Here in Trinidad, West indies we have 40% Indian descendants, 40% African descendants, and a mix of Venezuelans, Jamaicans, Guyanese, Cubans, Africans, Indians, Filipino and others. We have learnt to co-exist, never having racial riots. I have lots of mixed people in my family, and friends of all races. God bless you ma'am. Love. Trinidad & Tobago.
I just find that fascinating. I've always admired that diversity, in the USA, we are different yet we struggle to find that niche our acceptance, full on acceptance is what we need. To just exist, wouldn't that be nice.
@The Engineer Guy Yeah I just really don't wanna put a negative on this sweet story...people live pretty isolated lives here in the US, far cry from just 30 years ago when people actually talked to each other. Now you don't even know your neighbors, they want their space, we have come to embrace isolation...I guess
The Engineer Guy also racism still exists, never went away, won’t go away unfortunately as long as arrogance and inequality exists.
And Malcolm X too, an equally influential and beloved figure for many of us thinking kind. He was bold and unafraid.

SIgh, if only Nationalist China (the ROC) had won the Chinese Civil War, then Chinese and Indians today would be like in the old days, dancing outside while holding hands happily, and Chinese people would be friendly and benevolent, like in ancient Buddhist times. :(
Beautiful story

Pov Yi this isn't always the case, sometimes people aren't blessed with stable and good families.. but they are just as amazing as this lady. But I agree, you either are loved and become just as loving or you're not given the love and that makes you promise never to be that way to others. They turn out great either way I guess aha

@@aliendude4064Tamil eelam
Those indian parents are ideal!!..
Can see them through her reflections
I realised how little people know about Singapore and Malaysia. They’re not Indians from India, they’re not Chinese from China - they’re Singaporean/Malaysian. We’ve been here for hundreds of years and we’re not related to the current countries where we our ancestors originated. Stop assuming stuff and projecting it onto us when you don’t know shit.
WELL SAID, NOT only here lah.. this northeast and north Indian even cyber bullying to Singaporean couples which was chinese & Tamil couples and they were racism towards that tamil girl because she was dark skinned and they assuming that Singaporean Chinese look like northeast Indian 😂 but the fact is northeast Indian ancestors are from china because they're bordering with china and they looks like chinese but they never accept the reality.. if someone call them Chinese they feel racism.. but malaysia /singapore is unique culture and they dont understand they're thinking china and india 😂😂 it's nothing to do with china and india aiyo this is malaysia and singapore cultureeeee
The lady says Tamil . Captions say Indian. RACE AND NATIONALITY ARE DIFFERENT guys 😭
I've great respect and admiration who adopt Chinese girls because in Indian customs, to marry off a daughter needs a lot of money but these adoptive parents don't see them as a burden. In the past, if these girls had not been given away to Indian families, they might have been sold into the brothels.
I had a colleague who had a tertiary education and was a professional and had married a good husband. She was an adopted child and she had always bitterly complained, "Why me?" (why her biological parents had given her away among all siblings). If I were close to her, I would have told her that she should be very grateful to her biological parents who had chosen to give her away. They were poor peasants and had many children. If she had not been given her adoptive parents who were rich, she would have not gotten a chance to go to school. She would have married a peasant and had many kids. I am not a Christian but I would have told her that she "would not have know God but would be worshipping idols". She was always complaining about everything, always frowning and grumbling.
Wooyan Wooyan there's people out there that no matter it is can only see and focus on the negative.
China is as bad. China has a shortage of females because of abortion of female fetuses. And Christianity is much worse than Dharmic religions.
@@shettyanket95 in India especially in North they have shortage of women as well. I'm from Kerala and we have shortage of guys over here and surprisingly we have more Christians and Muslims. Got it?
Don't include religion and make us hindus looks stupid. Do a research or atleast Google before opening your wide ass mouth.
From where u get these propagandas in India? We have law against dowry and in some remotest part these can be seen that too in a very low density..........no matter what u guys have to discriminate India and Indians by any means

Race is a social construct not a biological one. SHE IS A TAMIL LADY and INDIAN. She said so herself. The title should say "born Chinese AND raised by Indian Parents"
Han and Tamil are ethnolinguistic groups. We should stop using the term "race" and adopt the term "ethnolinguistic group" as it is more proper. Sure, it's a mouthful but yeah...
Jesus why tf are you guys so sensitive ?
Agreed
Tamil not Indian
There are many non Indian Tamils in the world
@शिरीष ರಾಮಾಯ they were in Singapore
Mistranslation: she said she was adopted by Tamilian Family, she didn’t say indian family.. not that it matters but that’s the correct translation.
And then she said to the tamilian shopkeeper that she's an Indian but they all laughed, but it doesn't matter since she's an Indian whole heartedly 💓
Outside India: south, east, west or north they call all of them as Indians, not Tamilians,kerealities, Kannadiga or Punjabi's.
Hemanth Raju I know. I was just translating what she said- she said “Thamizh makkal” which translates to Tamilians. Just in case anyone wanted to know exact trans because I understand the language. But in an international context it doesn’t matter, indian is fine.
Omg, can't believe everyone is trying to seperate Tamil and India
Yar tamilnadu is in india. Then people in there should be an indian. Whether tamilian or indian its same
Hey I found a man who a chinese but have an indian parents like 2 days ago and I found another one here.
*Amazing Story* 👍
He also good in Tamil.
But the guy is in Malaysia.
50 years back life was really harsh for everybody. There was a huge poverty where every parent cannot even had enough to feed themselves let alone their own children. It was the time when uneducated parents does not have any approach of any family planning would give away their newborn to adoption. Those are bad times....really bad
the same goes for the Indian families (they too were either poor or very poor) who adopted all the FEMALE chinese children dumped by the chinese family. Pls, do not use lame excuses here.
So true , but I Thank God every day.... I I pulled just a little more out of me to see my parents through another illness.

@@shiningstone6771 tamilian anti national sambhar.
Be Proud to be a Tamilian. Tamil is the oldest language, emerged from Lemuria Continent-Kumari Kandam. Today the Kumari Kandam is immersed under Indian Ocean. Researches still going on to explore the Tamil Civilization which was ruling the entire world. In Tamil Nadu, you can witness Iots of Temples and monuments built with carved stones by our ancestors reveals how intelligents they are.
I think a forgotten chapter in history are the chinese children given to malay families to be raised, esp in malaysia where it is quite common. There are many malays today who have chinese lineage from a parent who was adopted or at least know someone who does. Unfortunately most of those adopted no longer hv contact with their biological families.
Alya Hamzah But why did chinese parents rejected their children?
Abhishek Tanwar usually they want a boy so can bring the surename they adore men much
Alya Hamzah my cousin brother married to a chinese who was adopted by a datuk.fmly. she was tout all abt d malay traditional culinary conundrums. academically she didnt shine but her culinary skills brout her to germany, uk as a chef at the msian embassy......
asked why she was given up for adoption, her foster mother said that she was a 'soi loi'....unlucky child. so she was given up. and she sd that it was a priceless gift that she was adopted by d datuk fmly.......
We don't have contact with our Afircan ancestors either. Its not a big deal.
Silver Bells I bet the biological parents would be salty if they found out how fortunate she is.
Her tamil ❤️❤️❤️ and love conquers all!
Every time she says I was adopted and raised by Tamil parent it's not Indian. Tamils in Singapore are citizen of Singapore not India. They moved to Singapore during British India. They fought for Singapore freedom after then they were honored with citizenship. Srilanka also has native tamils . Singapore tamils are citizen of Singapore not India . No hate

Singapore Indians are very friendly.

"Even though I was brought up in an Indian family" ?? Seriously though?? Cause she clearly said "Tamil", and not all Tamils are Indians mind you.

She always says she is a Tamil, tamil family. She never said indian in the whole interview, except once..
Because Indian is nationality and Tamil is her ethnicity and yaa, she live in Singapore
Because she is Singapore citizen
@Master in Otakulogy there are Tamils in Srilanka also. I just said, what she says in the video.
@Singh Bhardwaj first of all, not everyone understands Hindi in India. And you are the one who doesn't understand the difference between the Tamils from Sri Lanka and USA😅 and speaking about logic...
@Singh Bhardwaj nice, that's what I expected. That shows your intelligence level and understanding. Congrats for proving it. Well done my boy👍😅..
That's open architecture of Hinduism... It's lovely to see her how she has lived through her life from tough times in Singapore to now peaceful ones.
I'm a Bengali from Chhattisgarh and most of my best friends are Malayali and Tamil and here some people are crying Tamil is not Indian. This really hurts and I feel sad for these people. They are threat to the society.
Because Tamils are not only in india but also in srilanka and Singapore 🤷♂️
nawin kumar , Indian is a political construct and we Tamils respect it. Tamil is a Culture, it’s a ethos, it’s an identity. Hence we say she is Tamil . Also FYI being Tamil need not mean one is Indian , one could be Srilankan also . You may not realise these things as you live in the north, doesn’t matter we are here to tell you
@@prabhunet bro naanum tamilan than bro from tamilnadu 😋
nawin kumar I tagged wrong person 😂
Many Tamils only say that they are Tamils and not Indian
