Scenario: National Day Preview Show

One part of the NDP show featured greetings from Singaporeans from all over the world.
In one of the clips, a Chinese Singaporean lady said ” I miss Char Kway Teow”

Student seated next to teacher: (giggling) So funny one… her name is Miss Char Kway Teow.

Teacher: No YingXin, the person was referring to the food – Char Kway Teow. She misses the food here, not that her name is Miss Char Kway Teow.

Student (with an embarrassed but whatever look): Oh…ok.
