    Give credit to Max's mom, quite a fair bit of Eurasian kids with Chinese heritage can barely string a sentence in mandarin, even our new PM struggles with mandarin as an ethnic Chinese. To be able to handle an interview in Mandarin effortlessly is indeed admirable especially at his age. This young man indeed is a gem. If he wins a gold in this Olympic, hopefully he can stay grounded and not be distracted like what happened to JS. JS will live on as an Olympic legend alas as a 1-time Olympic gold medalist when he could have been more.

      Gives our new PM time to brush up on his Mandarin and Malay skills, Mr LKY learnt Mandarin till the end. It's a blessing of disguise that Max clinched bronze this time round. The extra motivation and hunger will see him through, to clinch the dream Gold in LA2028 🙏

    I don’t understand mandarin but many of my SG born & raised Chinese friends struggle to speak it fluently. It’s really cool that Max speaks Mandarin so well. He also seems to have a great personality despite being quite privileged. We are all rooting for you, Max! Hope to see you again in LA 2028 ❤

    A big salute to his mom and dad who made it all happen for him. Home school and speaking a few languages make a difference in the new world compared to the standardised school curriculum. Specialising over generalising from early years is good thinking.

    Truly enjoyed watching this! He’s so cute whenever he said ‘aiyo’ 😂 the hawker food he enjoys eating proves that he’s truly a Singaporean! Seems like he really enjoys kitefoiling, everyday is a holiday for him 🥹😂 he’s still young & he already achieved a lot for his age. He’s such a good example to everyone! Speaks such eloquent mandarin compared to Chinese Singaporeans 😅 wishing the best for his future tournaments! He has such a composed & mature demeanour, his parents really brought him up well 👏🏻👍🏻
