Don’t Look, Just Eat!

I have a husband who is Hongkie
Tells me Malaysians are funny
When we see a rat at an eatery
Nobody will report to the authority
Everyone will pretend not to see
And just continue to enjoy their nasi
He asks stalls also why so dirty
Near a big longkang clogged and smelly
Can pengsan from the odour already
Yet he sees people eating enjoyably
Even worse are stalls with no tap facility
Just pails of water to wash our cutlery
Somehow, he feels that is really yucky
Then he complains further to me
Why got flies even in KFC
Aiya, don’t know why this husband so fussy
Or is it we are the unhygienic ones really
Anyway, my mom told him seriously
In Malaysia, there is this philosophy
Don’t look, just eat, that’s the way exactly!
