If you pm me, I can tell you that country in private, yoko masabihan na racist.
And yes prang Fookien and mandarin, ang written words nila pareho although when
spoken it sounds different. sa mga hindi sanay, syempre naiirita, they are supposed to
enjoy the movie and not to pause every now and then to digest what is being said.
So nilagyan na lang ng subtitles pra walang problema.
On the other hand, I got a Ph friend, who doesnt understand what Hermoine is talking about at Harry Potter. prang ganun ba.

thanks.
