The World Cup has begin I heard. Lots of my friends are watching it. Some watch it for their favorite English players, some watch the exciting matches since they betted on the teams.
Me: So is Singapore participating this year?
Friend: What the fuck? You live where one? Singapore where got go World Cup one, we sure lose one lar. Qualifying rounds then lose liao…
Me: Oh, then you support what country?
Friend: You mean I bet what, is it?
Me: No lar, like which country you wish would win.
Friend: I wish Japan or Korea leh, support Asia people mah. Kanninah _(vulgarity)_, you support the Ang moh meh, they are for betting only lar.

Hmmmp, that’s one for Asian sports I guess. Maybe my friend’s right, we perhaps should give our Asian counterparts more support. Hopefully one day, our Asian friends would get to the top of World Cup; let it not be an Xbox 360 scenario.

by cockroach (Jun 10, 2006 at 5 PM)We didn’t participate it turns out. The Asia countries playing are Iran, Japan
by Mr. Dew (Jun 10, 2006 at 5 PM)Saudi Arabia and South Korea. Considering the fact that most of the world’s people live in Asia, the number of Asian countries participating is rather disappointing. Maybe some countries have yet to discover the football.
