Writing An Ah Beng Blog

I noticed lately there's been an explosion of blogs written by Ah Bengs within the Malaysian and Singaporean blogospheres.

In Malaysia, we have this Cantonese blog and that Hokkien 'bollock'. I have to say, the Hokkien blog impresses me even until today. Limpeh still find it quite amazing how that Hokkien Lang is able to spell all these bloody Hokkien words using English. Even his readers also comment in Hokkien instead of English! Waliew!
Hokkien Blog

Then over in Singapore, those Ah Beng and Ah Lian bloggers lagi more power. From Apple Lim to BlinkyMummy to Big Fuck Rambo Tan, to Rockson Takumi Tan's Talk Rock which spawned imitators like the now defunct Emilio Jackson Tan and the Ranting Rock.

These are all very popular blogs and I admit its guilty pleasure reading them from time to time. I realised that suddenly Bengism is not just a subculture others would look down on, because when you can cuss with style and write words like "KNNBCCB that NKF, TT and CPF!" dammit YOU ARE COOL OK!?

Seeing as how being an Ah Beng is cool once again, I decided to try my hand, and write the rest of my entry in Benglish - ie, in broken English, heavily applying swear words, and excessive use of the word 'ok!?'

(Warning: Crude language ahead, may offend.)

Very, very 'Rockson' way of talking. But it doesn't become you because you're way too much of a good boy. *snigger!* Nice try though, a few more rounds and you'll have the ah beng slang down pat.

come on kenny! we like u the way u are!

Posted by: Cherub at 13 August 2005 6:33 PM | Link to comment

Wahahaha great attempt. Having said that tho, "benglish" is not really suited to the sarcasm that is your style. It's more for ranting in a funny way. Different styles for different purposes. But if you feel comfortable writing in either styles, then us readers are doubly lucky. :)

Hi Keeny Pukima Sia. I like yourr new name. Instead of Bengism, you sud write on Semi-belu-ism. Of all yourr politisian...I likked yourrr Semi-Belu best. His anecdotes can be compiled into an yeanthology (anthology) of Semi Belu blarring. Some in my memories were "Yinni yorang, rakyat Malaysia vvery short memory ...vvery ungratefulll." Another one was "Peke,raa (pekara) kicill kicill (kecil) bikin atom bom macam." Lagi hilarious lah, Yincik Kenny Pukima Sia.

i used to like your style of writing. the operative word is USED. i know what i write here may have little or no effect at all but i stand by my opinion that you have to be careful of what you write. yes, this is YOUR blog. your own personal space. but don't forget that this is private space of yours is also available to the public domain.

Alah Kenny, blardy funny you talk beng-style. Wah lau, I Malay also understand - mix with Chinese too much liao.

Anyway, what I want to say long-long is, in Xing Chia Po, we no need under table one. Gahmen already charge SGP25,000 for a bloody A4 paper that says we can drive our already over-priced Jepun made cars. That's even more KNNCCB!

the best bit was when mahathir was quoted in the papers saying he is an old man, and maybe not QUITE sure, but there might be some differences between the APs depending on the years

hwaliao wei, power evil.

but seriously Kenny, we'd all hate to see you hounded by the gahmen just because they can't take a joke, or freedom of speech.

let us know you're alright. :)

Funny how I'm a Singaporean but I have no idea what some parts of your entry meant. Can't understand anything from the Hokkein blog... Very sad. I'm part of the ever-growing Can't-Understand-Dialect-Generation.

Being curious I, of course, clicked the 'disagree' button of the disclaimer as well. Wahaha. So funny!

To those offended by my excessive profanities, this is just a one-off experiment at writing Ah Beng-style lah. So please, chill.

desperate addict, i see you have taken out your anger on Mr PK already .

J Schnorng, you are a smart and educated Beng lah ok?

Ben + chinyee, I'm sorry but how do you expect me to respond to something like "I used to like your style of writing"? It is difficult enough to satisfy everybody's taste the way it is already. :(

hi kenny, luved your entries.. but i do agree with some, this is a sensitive issue, and we want you to just take note in case the govt comes a-knocking and demands an apology from you, just like our AcidFlask/A*Star issue..

Well, Kenny, you outdone yourself this time. It's a funny and amusing entry, I'm sure many out there are in the same boat about this AP situation. The disclaimer was/is the wisest thing to do, because we are being watched and monitored, all the time. Especially now that even government officers are reading your blog, for fun, mind you. But still, never underestimate the Malaysian Intelligence, dear. We have one of the best intelligence in the world. Trust me.

Posted by: chibinook at 15 August 2005 10:12 AM | Link to comment

what sensitivity? i do it all the time... and some blogs that blogs on politics also does it all the time. no worry for me.

oh i guess the difference is kenny's blog is a very popular blog read by so many people including govt. officials (as someone pointed out), whereas my blog nobody's reading it... so no need for me to fear.

not beng enough, not hokkien enough. must use a lot of "hor", "walao eh", "niama", "chiak sai", "sibeh", "lin lao peh" (a longer version of limpeh), "kanasai", "lanjiao".
then it would be BENG TO THE MAX!!! hehehe...
