“Everyone in China, everyone on Douyin, Weibo, we would like to say thank you for you guys, for the Singapore team,” said Wang Huan, 38, a TikTok livestreamer who queued for up to 40 minutes with his daughter to get nasi lemak.Chinese supporters gathered at the coffee shop included expatriates who have worked here for years, naturalised citizens and tourists who decided to drop by during their trips.
Mdm Aidah, 41, said the first sign something was different came shortly after the Lions’ match in Bangkok on Tuesday night, when she and Hassan exchanged text messages. Mdm Aidah said she had not had the time to total up the fans’ Alipay deposits and the stall’s earnings for the day.Chinese football supporters talking to Aidah Rahim at her stall on Jun 12, 2024.
The attention has been “a bit” disruptive, said Mdm Aidah, as their regular customers had to wait for a long time or were turned away after the food sold out. He pointed out that apart from Hassan’s saves, the goalie was also given a yellow card for delaying the game in stoppage time. This contributed to denying Thailand a chance to widen its victory.
