just eating screws jei... he's from St George wor... and got kick out in Gr.10/11?!?! i remember he got into the "entertainment circle" when he was 16... but he should be able to speak fluent english for sure la...
The way I see it: Lemon was an outcast of St. George and his ching-glish sucks no matter how we interpret it.
Don't just automatically assume that if he attended school here in N.A., his English will be good. That's a false assumption to begin with and many folks made that mistake in the past for I've seen many ching-lish speakers whose been around here for a long, long time (try old migrants in our chinatown for gawd's sake). You have to commit yourself into learning/practicing the language before you can be comfortable at it. Eating screws is just a sign that he isn't fluent in the language to begin with, forget about his private schooling background.
If he wants to become fluent in English (not ching-lish), come back to B.C. stay here and work for in a white man society for another 15 yrs then (I dare him).
Maybe he could speak fluent English when he just went back to HK when he was 16 yrs old. However, if you don't speak that language at all for a while (even just 2 yrs), you won't able to speak that language fluently anymore.
