The Little Nyonya Fever

The latest 9pm Channel 8 drama series, The Little Nyonya (小娘惹), has been very successful and well received by Singaporean of all ages. It was rated one of the most watched drama series in recent years!

Last Saturday, 27th December 2008, The Little Nyonya artistes were out in full force to attend the road show in Sengkang Compass Point. A capacity crowd of five thousand supporters filled every storey and escalator of the shopping complex.

When the artistes arrived, thunderous cheering began filling the complex from ground level up! All the supporters started jostling and pushing ahead towards the stage area to catch a close up view of the favourite artiste! All of a sudden cameras, video-cameras, handphones and banners were raised high in the air to capture whatever images there were to be captured and to show their support for the artistes!

There were photographers on two-steps ladders shouting out to supporters in front to lower their banners as it was blocking their view. Yet again the people behind the photographers were shouting to them to come down from their ladders as it was also blocking their view! The whole situation appeared rather comical to me and luckily it did not lead to any sour situation, otherwise it will be a big chaos and there will be many people injured!

Chris,

Are you The Little Nyonya (小娘惹) supporter ?

In a way "Yes" because every night I will try my best to accompany my mum to watch the 9pm drama series on TV after dinner.

I'm either working or out most of the time so that's the only way I could spend some quality time with my mum.
