Taiping speak Hokkien

Posted by admin on Dec-27-2007

The most widely spoke Chinese dialect in Taiping is Hokkien.I emphasized this in case you come to visit Taiping.

I found that many food stalls starting to use Cantonese while ordering foods, I don’t understand why. Frankly, if you talked Cantonese to me while I am at Taiping, I normally refuse to buy foods from you. Because you didn’t give me the feeling like I’ve come back to Taiping. Unless you speak Mandarin, this is common used in Taiping as well.

Perhaps there are many outsiders came to Taiping to run their business. So they have brought their Cantonese culture to Taiping. But, I want to tell you, please learn your Hokkien before you come. This is our culture.
