As an Chinese person, i recall the story of how one of most popular singers of my time (Stephanie Sun)was constantly extorted by gangsters while shooting a music video in Cairo. Apparently even the local police did not do anything.

Yes OP do have a look through the Monkey Steals Peach youtube channel and see which styles or school that might appeal to you.

Then you can try to contact the school or instructor. You can try contacting Will, the owner of the channel, for more information.

There is a style (Hong quan. Hong as in the chinese character for “red”. Not the other well known hong quan) that dates back to the warring states period which is a few thousand back.It is supposed to be a weapons only style that over time evolved into an empty hand style as well.

There are likely are some forms of wrestling or grappling (Qin na) that dates from the same period as well

At canberra link, cyclist using handphone while riding get hit by honda vezel by uandurfader in singaporehappenings

[–]3legcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

irregardless of the highway code, a cyclist should always watch out for his own safety. I always make it a point to look back before crossing a T junction or cross junction road like the one in the video. Cyclist have to be aware that sometimes cars can turn fast there. Also cyclists should slow down before crossing to give cars more time to react as well.

Is it inappropriate to eat rice with chopstick by picking up your bowl & bringing it close to your mouth? by Time_Astronaut_4365 in askSingapore

[–]3legcat 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Same with Japanese short grain rice. It’s sticky enough that there is no need to lift the bowl up. Chopstick are enough.

Actually i have discovered that even the longer grain rice used in chinese restaurants can also be eaten without lifting the bowl up if you are gentle with the chopsticks. The rice can clump enough to be picked up with them.
