Frequently Asked Questions

lim peh ka li kong

Since me started blogging, me is like a sotong - 7 hands 8 legs, grabbing and posting all kinds of issues in my blog. Old Beng´s tales with his 12 children; Daily life with photgraphs; 10 Signs; Cartoons; 狮城怪谈; 散文与心情; Other Bloggers´ interesting links;

Just my answers to some of the frequently asked questions.

Q: What is "lim peh ka li kong" and "lim peh kong wan liao"?
A: "Let me tell you" and "I have finished talking".

Q : Are your stories real?
A : Some real, some not so real and some totally not real.

Q : Your wife really looks like Fiona Xie and you really have 12 children meh?
A : The best jokes are true and the best truths are jokes. 真亦假时假亦真,做人何必太认真?

Q : Why do you want to lie in your postings?
A : Fictitious issues are more interesting and enjoyable but "lie" is too strong a word.

Q : Why do you want to blanco your face in the photographs?
A : Me happy, me like, me shiok what.

Q : Then may as well don´t put your photo la.
A : Then you may as well don´t read lor.

Q : Why don´t you write about politics issues and criticise our current Government which I believe you can write very well?
A : Don´t know anything about politics and please don´t try to teach your father how to f... ok!

Q : Why don´t you add in some spices and use more vulgarity to enhance your postings and make it more humourous and interesting like Rockson´s?
A : Hello? Vulgarity is never my cup of tea, go write your own blog if you so love vulgarity.

Q : Do you delete comments which are left in your blog?
A : Depending on the contents but YES I do delete comments if I find them inappropriate.

Q : Why? Don´t you believe in freedom of speech?
A : Of course, freedom of speech is only for me in my blog but not open to public. You want to have freedom of speech? Go write your own blog.

Q : Would you mind me linking your blog or link some of your postings?
A : Not at all, in fact it is an honour to be linked but hope that I can be notified so that I can thank you.

Q : How can I get in touch with you?
A : Leave comment in my blog or you can email me at old_beng@yahoo.com.sg

Q : Where do you get the ideas of the 10 signs? Did you copy them from somewhere?
A : 10 signs are solely my own creation and I always acknowledge if I am quoting some ideas.

Q : 你的华文文章多数都注明为 “旧著”,什么意思?
A : 很多年前,当老明还是小明时,曾多次投稿于报章与杂志,当时被刊登的稿就是我现在 upload 为 “旧著”。

Q : 为何总是 “旧著”,没新著吗?
A : 当然有 “新著” 啦,只是想先把 “旧著” upload 完。所写过的 “新著” 就有 “最。。。/对联”、“姨母”、“忆先父”、“福建童谣” 等等。

Q : 你曾拥有过的笔名?
A : 雷城、洪城、若现。

Q : 当时的你有自己的专栏吗?
A : “狮城怪谈”、“鬼话连篇”、“凡夫俗子” 以及 “醉入红尘”。

Q : “狮城怪谈” 里的故事都是真实的吗?
A : 对,都是真实的, 恐怖吗?

Any more questions for me?

    At first glance, me thought you want my account numbers to transfer me money, then me read properly....:(

    If you are asking the fees me got for my articles in the Newspapers/ Magazine, then it is just peanuts. (I mean real peanuts hor).

    To me, the fees was not the main reason for me to write then but interest in writing motivated me more.
