Irish Born Chinese

Michael Martin and Chinese gaffe

It was like a Fr. Ted moment two days ago, but apparently it caused more of a bruhaha around Ireland amongst the press and media than the Chinese community (I was just laughing my head off, I wasn't actually offended). And of course he apologised. There's much more to be concerned about with our economy then this off-the-cuff impersonation. I suppose during public appearances and mimicking a different nationality to the press, albeit badly, is a no-no. Now back to reality.
