Daily advice for HK immigrants to the West:
At work or at play, you may be called on to speak. Don’t apologize and say, “English is not my first language”. With Asians, a lot of time, people just assume that you don’t speak great English. There’s no need to reinforce the prejudice. You can live in humility without the added humiliation. If someone remarks, “You speak good English,” you don’t need to push back too hard either. You can simply thank them. If you want to be funny, you can say, “Thanks. You should hear my Cantonese”. Never apologize for something that can’t be helped or who you are. Be proud of the fact that you’re bilingual or multilingual. Instead of playing along with their prejudicial narrative, you can change their minds by speaking slowly and clearly. When you slow down your speech, you have more time to think and you sound more thoughtful. If you just give off the cuff answers like you’re racing for the F-1 finish line, you’re bound to have to apologize later for your faux pas.

Yesterday was quite a hard day cuz I got a second opinion confirming that my kitchen island has to be dismantled to get the 1st floor bathroom pipe fixed. Why does it have to be this pipe? 🥲 I meant just look at my grey quartz curvy island, my newly painted, patterned PHOMI Malaysia wall and my fancy Nano Shield Inovar Floor Malaysia laminate flooring. I know there’s a solution but it’s just too much, I’ll risk damaging them all.
Please do respect that I do not want to reveal the developer/location for privacy reason, they’re taking responsibilities for now. I’ll do it the right way without causing unnecessary prejudice.
Here’s what I learnt:
1. When you do defect checks after taking your keys, outsource to another plumber to check, then claim the defects fixes with your developer. (My neighbour did this but some unexpected problems still popped after moving in)
2. Ask your developer contractor roughly where the hidden pipes are IN the wall to avoid hitting the pipes in the wall when you drill water heater/water filter on. (Leakage in the wall is GG)
3. You’ll NEVER KNOW until you really move in and STAY/USE for a period of time. If you can, try showering and using the toilets before renovation. Thank goodness I did not do any renovation for my bathrooms and the 1st floor, so I can prove that it’s a developer defect.
4. Always look out for random water puddle in the bathroom, it could be pipe/faucet leakage.
5. Check your water meter frequently when you first move in, you might be able to spot any problem early.
6. Do not be afraid, your last resort is to file complaint to KPKT if a developer defect isn’t fixed.
Praying that FMCO ends well and soon, so the carpenter and plumber can work together to give me a comfortable home. Until then, I shall stay stress-free and happy #homewithdaph

#德國_西班牙否決自行決定性別法案
西班牙及德國,陸續否決了 #人民可以自己決定性別的法案,其他歐洲的國家也面臨相同的立法挑戰。
--
Debates about transgender rights have raged most angrily in the Anglophone world, but they are now intensifying across Europe. Last month the Spanish parliament voted against a bill that would allow people to determine their own gender. A day later Germany’s voted down two such bills. Few newspapers took any notice.
Self-id, as it is known, is the idea that people be allowed to change the legal markers of their sex simply by saying so, without jumping through any medical hoops. Trans-rights groups say this is crucial for trans people, who face daily prejudice. In Germany one of the bills, put forward by the Green Party, proposed that children be allowed to have gender-reassignment surgery from the age of 14, even if parents oppose it. It would also have introduced a fine of €2,500 ($3,045) for referring to a trans person based on their natal sex.

Taiwan, beacon of Democracy in Asia and the world
Is a self-governing country without a seat in the UN
China views it as a renegade province
And threatens to annihilate it by force
Taiwan’s president Tsai Ing-wen responds with
More human rights,
More democracy
and More freedom
On February 20th 2019
Taiwan is to legislate same-sex marriage law
Here is Taiwan Premier Su’s message to its people:
Hello, My fellow Taiwanese folks
As we all know, human society evolves constantly. For the longest time, there were prejudice towards the poor, women, blacks. They couldn’t even vote. Now all is respected, all is equal.
We used to think sexual attraction happen to opposite sex. We didn’t understand homosexuals. Ignorance leads to fear. Fear leads to oppression. Even I was once ignorant as a kid.
Now it is medically proven. Homosexuals are born this way. It’s not a disease. It’s not contagious. You can’t nurture straights to gays, nor gays to straights.
Executive Yuan as the highest executive institution in Taiwan, we must act according to the law, we must respect the referendum results, we also must act according to the Grand Justice Interpretation of constitution court. Therefore, we will not amend the civil code law. The marriage between a man and a woman is intact as is.
As stated by the supreme court justice Interpretation No. 748, the union of same sex couples requires the equal protection of the freedom of marriage. Therefore, the Executive Yuan will enact on legislation of such law. Since many still debate on the naming of the law. We feel it is best not to muddle on the wording. Instead, the Executive Yuan will name it ‘J Y Interpretation No. 748 Enact Law’ and send it to legislature for review.
I hope all will understand that, according to the Grand Justice Interpretation, if the Executive doesn’t enact, if the Legislature doesn’t pass before May 24th, same-sex marriage will still be allowed to register under current Civil Code. Therefore, I ask the legislature to legislate soon.
I will also say this to my fellow Taiwanese: No matter you’re gay or straight, we are all on the same side, living together on this land, we are all here, between heaven and earth. I sincerely look forward to all, to tolerate the different, to kindly treat one another, and make Taiwan a country that respects and be kind to one another.
Thank you, and, good night.

Last week, I shared some of the incredible stories of the ladies who overcame body shaming. I created 2 parts to this video as I felt that each of their story is equally as important. I hope that their voice will speak to you. I hope that the message in this video will inspire you to be the best version of yourself, not someone else's. SHARE this message on. =)
Just ask yourself:
- What’s the worse comment someone has said about your body?
- How did that make you feel?
- What did you use to feel insecure about?
We’ve all been affected by the comments others put onto us. Regardless of how you look, or how you want to look like, there will always be detractors everywhere, telling you what you SHOULD look like.
We all deserve to live in OUR BODY without receiving the prejudice of others. It is NEVER ok to put other people down.
Don’t be so quick to judge or to tell someone what they SHOULD be or how they SHOULD look like. You do not know their story. You do not know their journey. After all, who gets to determine what you SHOULD look like? Only YOU.
Healthy comes in all shapes and sizes. Regardless of where we are: big or small, thick or thin, let’s support each other and be your own version of “good” and not someone else’s. I AM MY BEST ME!
