If you can't think of an answer: think Anwar


If a Cantonese, he will be known as Mr. Lai, someone who can be blamed for anything that goes wrong. If a Hokien, he will be asking incredulously, 'Ko si gua? Oo nyeah boh?'

Update:

Even the cat knows how best to answer when cornered...



Update:

Even padi fields destroyed was blamed on Anwar's arrival!


In Cantonese, when everything is blamed on a person is often described as 'oh si oh ng chut tu lai Onn Wah (Anwar)' which means even when a person is constipated is blamed on Anwar. Actually, the original version is 'oh si oh ng chu lai tei ngang' which means when a person is constipated he blames it on the hard ground.
