Love GP

Have you guys always dread about having to go for GP lessons and cursing and swearing the person who invented English? Or always slept in GP lessons because it is way too boring? Or even give it up all together?

It is time to re-think everything. Let us imagine a world without English. Let us imagine a world where Hokkien is the dominant language. We would be speaking Hokkien, learning Hokkien and even doing Chemistry in Hokkien! Now, this may initially sound rather appealing because we may not have to study English any longer. But, have you ever wondered how the world would be if everyone uses Hokkien? Can you imagine the Channel 5 you adore so much is now a Hokkien channel? Can you imagine watching your favourite Tom Cruise from the Hollywood acting in Hokkien? Can you imagine the all-famous Star Wars in Hokkien? You can't? Let me help you:




Ok so are you convinced that English is still a better form of entertainment? NO? Did you say NO? Maybe I may not have fully brought my point across. English is considered a rather elegant language where it is easily accepted by the society. Hokkien, on the other hand, is the exact opposite. Even saying hello sounds vulgar. It just have the very rude feeling it gives the listener. Do we want that in our graceful society? How are we going to make good relationships with our partners if communication is already a major problem. Not convinced that Hokkien is a bad communication language? Take a look at Taiwan. Always fighting in the parliment because a casual comment was often mistakened to be a direct insult to another. Here is another example about how vulgar Hokkien can get:




After all the above analysis, I hope everyone will be convinced that English still remains as an integral part of our life. Love GP!
