this guy is actually REALLY good, he's better than a lot of people I know, he has very good sentence structure and wording... there is a slight accent but it's extremely good nonetheless.

Yeah, seriously... I know it may seem strange and remarkable to you, but take a step back and evaluate it again...
How is it any different from a Chinese guy speaking perfect English?

There are many people who command languages easily.
I know an American lawyer in HK who is of East Indian descent, and speaks (near perfect): Punjabi, Hindi, Cantonese, Mandarin, Italian, French, Spanish, and one other I can't remember.
On a side note; 12 years ago I was with my gf at the time at the long-gone Hong Lok Yuen restaurant on Alexandra Road. An EI family sat down next to us, and I casually told her in Cantonese "wow, even EI's know about this place now!"
Their little daughter then proceeded to loudly order a cold milk tea in perfect Cantonese.

you don't need perfect Mandarin or Cantonese to be a Hong Kong superstar! Sorry it's not funny unless you speak fluent Cantonese (including all sorts of swear words)

He just talks about his own life story. And how he managed to not get ripped off by speaking Chinese to Chinese woman who was selling furnitures at a raised price to foreigners ROFL. But thing is his Cantonese is not that good it's spoken much like any Chinese dude trying to speak in Cantonese.
It's pronounced right but it's not the right words to use.
So whats the guy talking about the whole time?
The first two minutes talks about why he knows Cantonese and Mandarin. Then I stopped watching.

lol, i used to work with him. well his cantonese or manderin isnt perfect, but pretty decent.

Some of us are amazed just because there are more Asian people that speaks english in our society than other races speaking mandarin.

despite there being many foreigners to China/HK/Taiwan being able to speak Chinese in any of its dialects, I think this is pretty amazing.

alot of immigrants coming from india and shit that are doctors, dentists, lawyers and shit get screwed when they come here because they have to re-train just to get certified to do that shit here. so they basically have to start from the beginning and to do that is hella expensive.

Actually, ANY asian university degrees are not recognized in North America.
My friend from Taiwan has a Master Degree in physics, now he is taking the same course as me at BCIT. He couldn't even get into UBC/SFU.........
