  About 25 years ago I stayed in Penang for 5 weeks with a friend and his family and no doubt we speaks Hokkien we still unable to grasp each other once in a while.

  I always like the term from my Penang friend use to describe politicians; "peng you cho hee".

  as in the idiom puaN1-hi3-gong7, khuaN3-hi3-siau2
