the mrbrown show 7 July 2006: I am Singaporean by Stan and Ryan

Our friends, Stan "Artgerm" and Ryan, also did an "I am Singaporean" podcast. It is in Cantonese dialect.


National Day is coming soon, so I thought it would be nice to record a message for the occasion.

We were inspired by the Molson beer "I am Canadian" commercial.

If you like, you can record your own version of "I am Singaporean" and post it on your blog, and leave a link in the comments in there. You can also tag it iamsingaporean and entitle it "I am Singaporean".
