My favourite childhood drama - Samsui woman.

I remember as a child of 5 - 6 years old in mid 1980's, one of my favourite activities is watching tv. Those days, since I lived in Johor Bharu, a neighbouring city to Singapore, we could get very clear signals of Singaporean channels. They were called SBC then and not Mediacorp. :D

That time I couldn't really tell the time. But one thing for sure I know that when the long hand points up and the short hand points to the right. (3 o'clock) That's when the singaporean channel would start. I could sing the Singaporean anthem first before I could sing the Malaysian national anthem at school. Ha ha ha.

You know what was my favourite programmes those days? Chinese drama. LOL Especially the martial arts. Where the actress and actors when fighting they could fly. :D Then there was one very memorable drama, "Samsui woman". Who are the samsui women ? Read about them here.

And what did I tell you that you can really find everything on youtube, I found the opening of the programme. Oh my bring back the memories. I wonder whether they sell dvds of this series. I really love this drama.

Sher, Lady Java, I guess this shows how popular the program was. Even now I believe if they were to air it again.

Really is a sad drama.
