Old postcard

You read about the fire at a building in Bangkok's Chinatown? While watching the news I remembered that I have an old postcard of Bangkok's Chinatown, so I scanned it to put up here for people to see. Does it remind you of our Chinatown of yesteryear's?

You know, during my first or second visit to Bangkok, I witnessed a fire in Chinatown too. It happened in the night at an upper floor of a building. Can't remember much though as it was long ago

I think it is "The peony Fairy" (Gok Sik Tin Hern). Was the clip taken in Singapore? I'll be surprised if they arrived so early.

Yes, it is The Peony Fairy, 国色天香. No, it was taken in Hong Kong.

My Hotel was near the Sun Kong Theatre where they performed. They were friendly, didn't say cannot use camera.

Will be watching too. Just to correct you, I'm no expert, just an ordinary fan.

Frannxis,

Please send Ting Farn and Jeong Mun Tuin back to the washington DC state of Maryland. Jeong Mun Tuin said i am a good and kind person.

Frannxis have you shake hand and meet Ting Farn and Jeong Mun Tuin they are nice and kindly people. and All their fans want to know when will they be coming back to the washington DC state of Maryland to do another 3 days performances. We ordinary fans like it.

I wish Ting Farn and Jeong Mun Tuin could help the poor sorrowing crying people with nothing like nobody giving them a hug. Because i have the same problem. I want to ask Jeong Mun Tuin could i follow her. The reason why because my sister was not born. and Would she is my sister Yes Or No?
