      listening to their speech in mandarin really makes me :faint: :faint: :faint:


      can't speak then get some one to voice over and state \"sorry can't speak mandarin\", no one will fault them. Mr Na Tan can't speak mandarin, right ? Me Sheares and Mr Ishak and Mr Nair can't speak mandarin right ? Of course not many can be as fluent as OTC or LHL, but don't compare.

      tsk tsk tsk

      deduct marks for trying too hard to act

        quite agree. I was surprised when TCB had voiceover. Then I realised that his is one of the more 'can hear' speech.

        There's just one that blatantly cannot make it, I was giggling halfway and couldn't bring myself to pay attention. πŸ˜›

        Conclusion: if cannot, nonid to force, I understand.

          Haha must go and listen. Only heard the EL. Hubby gave up when he heard TKL's EL speech. He said the way he speaks/ the voice just makes people tune out immediately. So he asked me to switch to the next Tan. But I heard some part of TKL's speech in mandarin. So who is the one who can't make it???

                alot of β€˜blind’ votes will go to TT coz he’s most famous and also deemed most qualified as he had held the highest office among the 4.

                  I was surprised when he said \"I am Tan Kim Lian\". Anyway, it must not have been easy to sit down there, one camera point to your face and it's a 10 min speech. So kudos to all the candidates.

                  As for the chinese cmi one, a bit rude to say, just go watch. you can watch one less (since i mentioned TCB used voice over).

                  Actually was itching to see if there are malay and tamil versions, I won't know what' they are saying, it's just to see which candidate used his own voice. I must be :siao:
