On-screen text
Being 53 in Malaysia is a bit strange.
Everyone your age is living in a completely different timeline
Some are already grandparents.
Some are still doing school runs at 6.30am.
Some are newly divorced and back on the dating apps.
Some have been married so long their children are getting married.
Half of them look 38.
The other half look like they've been working in the sawah padi since 1997.
Some are talking about retirement.
Some are starting a new business.
Some are training for a marathon.
Some get a backache just from sleeping.
Meanwhile, I'm just trying to become one of those suspiciously healthy, youthful-looking pakcik people look at and go:
"Eh, serious lah... 53 ah?" 🤣
