Hong Kong stars Eric Tsang and Kenny Bee are currently in hot water in China after a photo of them with controversial Malaysian rapper Namawee went viral. Responding to the resulting uproar over being seen with the allegedly “anti-China” singer, both actors have released statements. They emphasised that they posed for the photo out of courtesy and that it had no reflection on their political stance whatsoever.
In his statement, Kenny Bee clarified he had no intentions of offending anyone whilst Eric said that as a Chinese person, the country’s dignity and sentiments was of utmost importance. “This incident was simply an unintentional mistake. It doesn’t mean that I support or agree with the (political) views of that person.” He also added that had he known about Namawee’s controversial background in advance, he would’ve avoided him altogether.
Both Eric and Kenny Bee were in Genting, Malaysia to attend an event where photos of them posing with the Malaysian rapper soon made the rounds online. Namawee himself had posted the photo on social media as he wished them good luck on their performance. This resulted in a huge public backlash for the two who promptly issued statements to clarify the situation.
In 2021, Namawee was banned on Chinese social media for his song “Fragile” which he released with Taiwan-based Australian singer Kimberley Chen. Whilst the song, which was sung in Mandarin, sounded like a sweet love song, its satirical lyrics were deemed by the mainland as “anti-Chinese”. Given the recent developments, it appears Namawee has decided to choose this time to promote another satirical song of his titled, “Letter of Apology,” which he shared on Facebook.

I have another 'who is this regionalised to' question. I use 'pike' as a verb to mean 'cancel on a social event'. Youngest has learned this from me, but tells me that none of their friends recognise it. Many of their friends are immigrants or children of immigrants, but not all, so you'd think at least the Skips would know it.
So: do you use it? Do you consider it to be a normal regional word?
