Why this Singaporean Chinese feels so happy in India 

This is one of the most realistic take on India ever by a guest in the channel

I love the fact that he recognised us "Northeast" because we're not that much represented in media

This gentleman has such a nuanced understanding of India, much better than any of the guests on your show.

This guy knows more about India and it's geography than the average 'educated' Indian.

His analysis about south and north India is extremely correct

Bro been in India so long, his head shakes accordingly

Very very interesting i have a feeling for India greetings from the Netherlands

Thank you, Andy Lim, for sharing your life experience in India with us. Fascinating and exciting at the same time.

Correction Bangalore, not 1000feet, is around 1000mt above sea level..

Your honest opinion is great..

During Raja Raja Chola era.. He ruled most of Malaya peninsula, Singapore, many parts of Indonesia (Indirectly) That's why many cultural similarities are there between these places

This was great to watch. I enjoyed your previous interview with Andy and his perspectives about the North and South are on-pointe. His insights are very interesting and come from having actual experience of having lived in the country and interacted with the people. Great to hear from him again, Thanks for sharing.

I think the details which he has given about India is so very precise and perfect. He genuinely knows india from inside. Loved watching it. Most insightful details from almost all of your videos Sir. You should also introduce the guests and give info about what they do etc.

i like this kind of content. its very informative. thank you.

I am from haryana and I can pretty much tell a slav and western European apart just by looking at their eyes and forehead,we have quite a few people here who have similar facial structure to slavs,so i can tell at first glace. Although with globalization it's become little hard these days

Thank you speaking honestly about our/My Country

this guy is dead spot on! And he know how to avoid unnecessary controvery ans still say what he wants to !

I am an Indian and I have never heard an Indian saying swimming phool??

Damn it ! Let him talk!

"domestic immigration is very common" - in fact this happens in all non-city states. Singapore being one is therefore a very rare exception in this world. The city-state that she is affords her citizens to be born, schooled, work and retire in the same place. Singapore coincidentally would also be a first-tier city in non-city states, and in fact, a regional and arguably international first-tier city too.

Well done both of you guys... Very genuine & honest interview.

I love singapore❤ stayed there as PR. Ww were used to 'No lah '

What a guy!

Even though India is not perfect in English fluency ,most Indian writers wrote extraordinary poetry,dramas,novels, short stories, marvellous genre in English...keep it in urs memory pls...❤

Im from india. Plz understand that everyone in india knows hindi. Even i dont know hindi. So no need of hindi subtittles. Hindi is just one of the language of north india. So need to follow the stereotypes.

So good of him recognising the Northeast.

I like your interview, yes we north indian looks like, Singaporean chinees, Japanese,and Korean,

I hope Max is going to interview Alfonso and Jessica as well on his channel. Finger crossed.

Nice interview, he is great person 😂

I'm in hospitality field, really wishing on moving to India (preferably Chennai, TN). What are the opportunities that available and what are the requirements? Btw I am half Tamil from Malaysia.

This gentlemen seems to be very smart and sober in his judgements.

Small correction. Bengaluru is around 920 meters above sea level which is ~3020 feet [not 1000 feet :)]

Is it a second interview with same person?

I love Bahrat, want to stay there sometime.

He's referring to the lower social classes in India. The upper social classes here speak great English and most speak English at home.

He's well versed with the nitty gritty of Indian Market😅

Singapore was known as Simhapuram and it was named by an Indian King .

SINGAPOREAN chinese.

20:28 spot on

India is a country and Indians are the citizen of this country, not a ethnic There are more than 100 ethnic groups in this country. China is a country, and the Chinese are the citizen of this country, not a ethnic. China has Fujianese, Cantonese, Shanghainese, Tibetans, Uyghurs, Mongolians, etc.

Andy Lim seems to have a good idea about India and I really enjoyed his Singaporean accent with the sentences ending with "La" .However Mr. Chernov has his own (strange) accent.

He knows better india than delhi students.

I'm from Pune, my most relatives worked in Bengaluru ( high salary jobs ), even after that they left Bengaluru and settled back to Pune. Reasons are 1. Water crisis 2. Expensive compared to Pune 3. City management is bad. Bus service is best but I have seen traffic jam of 1 km. In Bengaluru . 4. South Indian communist mentality, if they came to Pune, Mumbai for job , they will bring 10 more South Indians with them . (Same for U.P. , Bihar ) but if 1 Maharashtrian working in Bengaluru then he face more challenges. Tamil people are good , open minded compared to kerala, karnataka, Andhra originated people. Keralites are worst. I lived with kannadigas who owns restaurants in Pune . In their restaurants, from cleaner to owner is from South India. They never offer jobs to any Maharashtrian. Near my home Adi Shankaracharya temple exists, we Maharashtrians are not allowed to go there to celebrate Hindu festivals. Keralites gather there and celebrate there. Communist Keralites.

Lah and ah is strong but good insight for sure.

Isnt this a repeat? And also the previous one?

I've met Kashmiri Indians who look white.

GDP per employed person in Singapore is $180k in PPP to US. And its $22k in India, $35k in China, $140k in USA. Even after adjusting relative prices, Indians and Chinese earn less and work more. And when Singaporeans earn the highest in the world, prospectively Chinese, Brazilians earn peanuts.

3.00 minutes , sorry but our pronunciation is very clear . swimming phooooool 😂

We know more about indian, we like to undestand him

15 years of living in india and still don't know hindi and usage of english ( alien language) to communicate is like sonia gandhi (italian woman who struggle to speak hindi despite living and married to indian for35-40 years)speaks a volume about person thinking. First thing you do when you move abroad is that learn local or connecting language. Saying north Indian doesn't speak hindi ( taxi auto labour) why would they .... you came to india .... there work is doing on perfectly

❤ she is jessica 😂

Bangalore correct citywide

Very intelligent high iq man.

hw know more that indian politicians ..!!

Bharat is 🧡Fab

Mny of his views are incorrect. 1. People comes to cities to work. Mostly engineers ans mostly IT. This is the same thinh in ny country. Ppl in singapore will cme to singapore city n so will be in US or ny othet country. Regional places always have limited work comparatively. However, being myself in abroad, opportunities in India even in regional cities are far more compared to any abroad country US,singapore or Au. 2. Regarding salary. I think only India has upper kiddle class and middle class families. On an average these middle class ppl have cars ,maids , cooks and most of the domestic help, can go to retuarants as often as almost as 3-4 days a week n weekend ,going to restuarabts is a norm. Medicare is so good that ppl can afford the best doctors. We dont go to normal mbbs at all. Even for the smalkest scratch,we go to specialists. For simple fever,we find the best pediatricians n the facilities are very affordable. Also, mny companies provide medical insurance to the entire family and we dont pay a penny.These ppl also go for trips which is very very common. Booking hotels n hving a relaxed time visiting places is pretty affordable. So basically with the salaries that we earn,we can have pretty much a very luxurious life. This is impossible in abroad anywhere. The standard of living is pretty low in abroad. We can hardly afford for good doctors and weekend retuarants itself is soo expensive. The salary to cost ratio in abroad is terrible. It almost feels like poverty in abroad. Forget bout luxury. 3 its also easy to buy houses in India as we get 100% loan , if not 90% for sure. The thing in which he said 30% is false. We dont pay nything in cash. Everything must be documented n documents needs to be checked too as one can get easily cheated in India. We can nvr think of buying a house in abroad and its a lifetime struggle. 4. Education is worse in abroad. In India its expensive but we can afford it as the salary is high. We can get best private schools for our children tutions n extra curricullars like music,karate n its everydatly. Not once a week. Imagine wat will nyone learn praticing once a week. In abroaf, the cost is beyind affordable n yet the classes r only once a week. No one cares to teach nnprivate schoolsn tutions r out of our reach. I can go on n on. Basically life is far more luxurious, very convenient and comfortable in India. Dont compare dolar to INR conversion. Compare the quality of life and how affordable it is in India. Yes ppl go to abroad to make quick.money due to conversion n cme back n settle. It doesnt mean abroad is better.

It seems to me that you are still far from the north India as far as your assessment about English speaking people are concerned. Try it practically by roaming around there for a few days.

“The person you talk to lar” why two words? 😅

First time when herd "Canot canot " I felt it was very rude , then got used to it

India like SG is very influence by the Queen's English...need to speak properly not 'champo' as in Singlish

Do a video about south vs north India. South is less populated and more civilised than the North

there is 2 d one is like (the) other is like (dog)

I think je is a teacher 🥴

waterrrrrrrrrrrr

curry flavour Hinglish

tips in india when speak must shake hands. use fingers..

India is a difficult place to do business for foreigners.

🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🦾🦾🦾🦾❤🎉

Putting Hindi subtitles in the video is a waste of time, India is not a one language one policy country like China, Brazil or Japan. Indians speak tons of languages, our link language is English, Obviously you know it and still being ignorant and adding hindi subtitles can make the whole India understand. English subtitles is more than enough for us.

Noida City is one of most modern city in India.

Hmmm Bro, you're totally wrong. What about the Punjabis, Sindhis, Gujaratis & Malayaless? They've been in Singapore for almost a 150 years and are non-Tamil Indians. They were just a minority within the early Indian populations, making up the other 40% non-Tamils. Singaporean Indians have always been a mixture with a dominant ethnic Tamil component. LHL just celebrated the 100 year anniversary of the Sindhi community association in Singapore just a few years ago, for instance. There are also six Sikh temples in Singapore serving the Punjabi Sikh community and have an old history. Malayaless are the second largest group, and have a long history in Singapore.

Not so swimming pool is not pronounced as fool, Indians never do that but they always pronounced "swimming pool.

South Indians please correct karnataka(kannada), andhra pradesh & telangana (telugu), Kerala (malayalam), tamilnadu(tamil) are major languages /states

He is Chinese and so he has Chinese accent.

Indian who move abroad firstly it was common among millennium but gen z not so ... they have different mindset. They see india differently. Plus alot of stuff that is happening in the world is in asia particularly india. Yes they might go to study abroad but beyond a certain period of time as i realised you can do work and enjoy in the west but to settle No. Vibe of india is not there ... plus no digitization, too much rules.

.....But...His accent doesn't have similarity with a native speaker's pronunciation. In this case Indian accent is better than the sound he is making.

2 men speaking in pidgeon English about the eccentricities of another people who speak pidgeon English.

Singa- pura lion city. Somehow end up being singapore as pour .... english has really messed up whole lot of names

It’s a wrong information that you have to pay cash for buying a house. Bank offer up to 90% loan in India legally and 10% to 20% buyer pay cash legally which is not black but in legal way. Builders never force to pay illegal money. If some individual willing to pay black money in cash then different story but it’s not regular practice

Corruption...

0:23 @alfonsoandjessica that's your video.

Xinjiang part of Pakistan 🌎🌎🌎🌎🌎🌎🦜

English is not an Indian language.

It’s amazing living for so long and never pick up the language. If live in France he probably could converse in French. Looked down on Indian accent

India not on my bucket list for now

Bro is using India to milk views 😂

What is this a geography lesson? Irrelevant interview

Singapore is a super duper boring country

I think he should re-comeback to North, specially U.P it has changed. Why didn't he go to Gujrat and Maharashtra? These places are also good interms of business.

Chinese singaporian hakka noodles commenting on indian accent , hahahahaha

Most Malaysians who speak English like me will easily put him to shame.

As a Sporean his English is very average. What a shame.
