- What’s unique about Uncle Harry is his ability to speak Tamil fluently even though he’s Chinese by birth. He also sees himself more as an Indian. From jasmine garlands to Indian cuisine, Uncle Harry gives us a tour around Little India and teaches our host how to speak Tamil.
Watch on to find out how they fared.

This was good but annoying keep pushing epayment
I’m Chinese but I love Indian desserts especially Jangiri/Jalebi and the traditional coconut candy found in Little India.
This was actually so wholesome to watch
This man is chinese by birth but speaks way better tamil than half of sg indians i have met. Not did he learn the language but also the culture and the meaning behind the little thing. Hats of to mr Harry👏👏👏👏
The young host is very sweet and natural, very refreshing.
He pronounced Tamil so awesome 👌

So sweet of her to teach him how to use e-payments! Job well done.
That is script
Lingham is it that worshipped phallus
@@aiphuongchinguyen9618 So? It's executed with adequate enthusiasm.
@@SuccessforLifester The popular belief is that the Shiva Linga represents the phallus, the emblem of the generative power in nature. According to followers of Hinduism, their teachers have taught that this is not only a mistake, but also a grave blunder. Such a stance, for example, can be found in the teachings of Swami Sivananda,
In addition to the Hindu tradition, the Shiva Linga has been adopted by a number of metaphysical disciplines. In this case, it refers to a particular stone from an Indian river that is believed to have healing powers for the mind, body, and soul.
@@ojxirkgiouu2147 thanks for sharing
Both of you speak tamil language very cute and Awesome..
Love this concept!
Well done guys, We Singaporeans must live together for all times.
✌️🕊️❤️💯
Ah Peace
I enjoy to watch this 😂 Chinese people tamil are really cute ✨
Yeah
The girl's pronunciation? 😂😂
Even I can tell she really butchered the words.
very cute Angela and brother Harry Koh Kannan, very beautiful clip and i enjoyed it 👌👏
Singapore respected Tamil language more than neighbouring Sri Lanka
Why do you always have beef with us man???? True. The past was bad. But the politicians from all sides were responsible. Tamil, Muslim, Sinhala politicians were the ones dividing the people. Being a Sinhalese from down south, I felt discriminated in Jaffna, where Tamils are the majority. That’s all because of the politicians. I think you maybe an Indian who doesn’t know much about Sri Lanka. And do you know that the president R Premadasa made Tamil as the official language in Sri Lanka just to win the Tamil votes?? Nothing happened though. Still the killings were happening. As long as people are divided, it’s easy for politicians. They have dinner together, their children get married with each other’s children. But, in the public, they spread the hatred.
@@cdeux3059 do you guys discriminate each other? Do everyone know both languages in Sri Lanka. I am from Kerala.
@@arjunraj823 Tamils in western province and south know some Sinhala. But majority of Sinhalese don’t know Tamil. And majority of Tamils in North also don’t know Sinhala. That also was a reason behind the violent past.
A few years back, I went to New Zealand. Saw some cattle there, the farmers let us feed them. But I dared not approach those hulking beasts. So from a distance, I took the hay and flung it far over the fence.
That was my first yeet hay experience.
You guys are the good example for this multiracial country 💖❤️♥️💖... Love u guys ! 👍👌
Great job. Love the video.
The editor done a good job to hide Angela face from us. Dayum!
Wow, now I knows that Indian foods good for digestive system. Tq beautiful ah girl girl and handsome uncle. Rasam is for digestion

Good coverage by mothership
Nice video. I enjoyed watching.

Fiber a nutrient prevalent in Indian food is an effective compound to improve the process of digestive system. It can slow the process of food absorption in the body meanwhile taking care of the digestive system and prevent some problem like constipation. Get from Indian cuisine information
Little India is so beautiful. Do the Singapore Indians have the same accent of the Malaysians??? Those Garlands are Soooo Beautiful. The Jasmine is the national flower of the Philippines.
Malaysians and Singaporeans tamil language uses largely similar words. However, there are some give away words or phrases which when used, a Singaporean Tamilan can identify a Malaysian Tamilan. However, Idk if the same applies for the other way around.
Singapore Tamil don't mix Malay words sometimes
Proud of you uncle Harry

*Little India should be a part of India..Little india bharat ka ek HISSA hona chahiye..Singapore nahi*
Is true as Indian
When I get there I will go find Uncle Hairy
long time didn't show up Angela
Yah she so good and so natural in hosting,I really enjoy seeing this little girl after seeing that episode which feature those childcare kids few months ago
I still don't know how simplyGo works. Looks scary.
I watched this video because of Angela
I wonder which other languages the uncle speaks. He said Tamil was the most difficult one.
he said he know 4 languages..should be the 4 official languages of S'pore ..English,Mandarin,Malay & Tamil
@@muhammadridzwan5909 so Tamil is more difficult than Chinese? I'm learning Chinese, and to me it's the most difficult language on Earth :)
@@Maksim-8292 i believe that it's much harder than Mandarin...
@@muhammadridzwan5909 😳
Bengali sweets are best 😋
I would prefer them anywhere I go .
Excellent
Uncle must belanja makan one is it..?

Ult hyper not tank Angela
1:48 Self Proclaimed
Is it necessary for Indian kids to learn Tamil there
😲
And not all tamils are Indian though .
Ayo we have the same name
Tamil language is difficult for Indians so how Chinese people could speak tamil
4:54-5:04 That’s not how you pronounce 热气/熱氣 lol
the food is always 熱气🤣🤣🤣
We need to be careful about using a different race greetings these days. Some sensitive people would be outrage and accuse you of cultural appropriation or even calling you raciat. In MasterChef Australia, for example, one Sarah Tiong from Malaysia was angry and accused the westerner radio interviewers of being racists for greeting her, Ni Hao Ma.
Also the way the Chinese uncle shaked his heads side to side when talking to Indians, some new generation Indians might be angry with it
@@SuccessforLifester I’m really curious. Where is uncle shaking his head like a bobble doll ?
@@thedrules The segment at 3:21. It is quite subtle. But the cashier did look a bit annoyed and unhappy
@@SuccessforLifester I looked at it. It looks like perfectly natural head tilting you’d use whether you’re Indian or not. That cashier uncle has been looking glum for decades. It’s the standard Sian resting face all cashier uncles have :)
@@thedrules I can't really blame him as I found myself doing the same when I speak to my Indian national neighbours. 🤪
ONU HALUWA hahahahaha
E-wallet.
( Iam from Bangladesh ) ( আমি বাংলাদেশ থেকে ) Indian = means No Tamil !! 🤣😄 😂
Indian = means Hindi speaking people It is correct !
ভারতীয় = অর্থ তামিল না !!🤣😄😂 ভারতীয় = অর্থ হিন্দি বলা মানুষ এটা সঠিক !
Life is fair and unfair
Cringe lord
Usually young Chinese ladies wouldn't go to that area by herself.
ANY woman can walk freely without worry in Little India. Done it countless times, so the ladies who are stupidly apprehensive, have been conditioned by racists to believe that Indian men will hurt them.
@@MissAshaEdmund Indian lady is fine. But seeing a single young Chinese lady there is a rare sight
@@SuccessforLifester A rare sight because of bigoted conditioning, as I clearly stated.
She will marry now with the Tamil guy easily
VC from PSA is a two face dog
It would have been more WHOLESOME to let someone who is a Tamil speaking Indian person to be a part of this. Rather than get someone else. While there is no rule that a Chinese person who sees themselves more as as Indian is not allowed to showcase an Indian culture, it would make more sense to do it with the Indian person. In the name of inclusivity, sometimes we miss the obvious.
This is why sometimes people go up in arms over cultural issues. Diversity does not mean we forget the roots of a particular culture.
Also, going to an Indian shop to eat, you could have at least made an attempt to use your HANDS to eat or explain the significance behind them versus cutlery. If ya'll did so in the background, it would be nice to show that as well. OR, if you didn't do it out of personal preference or NOT yet comfortable or don't know how to, that too is fine.
This is like going to a Chinese stall and ordering Ban Mian and using hands to eat. Nothing wrong with it, right? It just looks a little off. Again, the cultural significance and why people do what they do gets lost in translation sometimes. Yes, appropriate cultural references have long been different from the way they were originally intended to be, due do a variety of reasons. That does not mean we do not do our best to make it as "authentic" as possible.
We can do better. Great effort tho. 🙏
Now is Covid period lah, bro! Risking one's life just for a shooting?? Be sensible leh
Even when people promote other cultures there will be haters trying to discredit the efforts.
I’m Tamilian & I’m not gonna eat with my hands outside during covid. They look cute embracing our culture :)
I agree to a certain extent. But because of covid eating outside with our hands is not advisable
I love Uncle Harry and think that he is one of us. Using him is a terrific idea, to educate the majority. The fingers part, I agree with. Covid is a dumb excuse. Will the virus dodge cutlery? They would be better off washing their hands twice, before and after.
Shake my head shake my head
What
Pull your eyes side to side yellow fellow
