Taiwanese YouTuber Came to S’pore & Said M’sians Made Him ‘Uncomfortable’

This guy’s name is Zhong Ming Xuan.

He’s 19 years old, and his hairdresser seemed to have cut his hair while putting a bowl over his head.

He’s also a YouTuber from Taiwan, and because I’m a stupid idiot, I’m very awed by his lifestyle because he mentioned something about some advertisement he needed to do, and I’m pretty sure he’s just booked an impromptu vacation to Singapore before his school starts because he needs to, and not to show us peasants that he’s rich.

Nothing’s wrong; he vlogs often and of course he’s famous, with well over 615K subscribers.

Here, take a look at his video:

Ok, pretty entertaining. Good edits, fast-paced and rather funny. That’s expected since he’s been YouTubing for more than seven years, posting videos since he was a young teenager.

But there’s just something that triggered Malaysians.

“Those Malaysians Are Staring at Me, Making me Uncomfortable”

When Ming Xuan was in MBS, he spoke to air the camera, claiming that because Malaysia is so close to Singapore, “Those Malaysians are staring at me, making me uncomfortable.”

Wait…what?

Why?

Firstly, I don’t know how he can differentiate between Singaporeans and Malaysians. We don’t just look the same: we even drink the same bubble teas. Does that hairstyle give him the ability to differentiate us?

And secondly, why do only Malaysians look at him? Singaporeans cannot look at him meh?

I’m an idiot so I’m sure he’s not trying to humblebrag about how popular he is in Malaysia, as some Malaysians like to watch Chinese YouTubers. Maybe the way Malaysians stare is different from Singaporean’s stare, just like how Singapore’s BKT is different from Malaysia BKT.

And Malaysians are unhappy, especially when he said “those Malaysians.”

Apa???

Replied With Another Video

When the whole issue went viral, Ming Xuan of course took the opportunity has to come out with a response video.

Three days after the first video, which has clocked over 932k, was posted, he uploaded another video, this time with the headline “Apologising After Doing Something Wrong”.

Except…erm, I’m too stupid to understand his apology.

In it, he claimed that he has no intention to discriminate against anyone, and he apologised if he had used the wrong words.

But have you ever received an apology from someone who said, “Okay lah, sorry lah, what you want?” before?

If so, that’s how the video felt like.

In fact, when netizens told him not to visit Singapore and Malaysia again, he told them to “shut up”, and proclaimed that he’ll still come visit us…because Malaysia has pretty good food.

OMG, Ming Xuan, didn’t you know that talking about food in Singapore and Malaysia is even more sinful than discrimination?
