Thought I wasn't go Orchard Road for a long time, that was a big surprise that saw this China "Pi Pa" China lady sitting on the Special Vehicle for disable people!In my memory, this China lady was doing her music instrument for few years in the underpass junction area at Tangs shopping center. Maybe due to the big revamp of Orchard road, she have to do her busking on the street instead of in the underpass.
What I super surprised, she was a healthy person and I met her in the event once and she really no healthy problem at all. While I saw her in last Sunday night, I got 2 conclusions: She tried to be fake as disability artist so can gain more income, or she really had some illness.
Opps! After read yesterday's "Shin Ming Daily News"(新明晚报), proofed she is faking as a disability people!
As an ambidextrous caricaturist, I do caricature drawing since 1990 in Singapore.

Fake Artist?
As an event artist or entertainer, we know we should be work professionally to ensure our quality and represent. All of us were not born with any special skills or professional; all of us was trained, learnt hard, always practice and work hard plus our passion to present out art during our booking hour.
Anyway, sometime we can finds a minor group of entertainer who having attitude problem, late for the event, fake as a professional and etc.
I not a type who like to insult any people, but recently I did came across a China calligrapher who did not know speak English at all who in the event, was ‘taught’ be a local senior Chinese guest about how to write a correct Chinese word during the event, in front many people!
This Singaporean senior guest claimed that this China artist was written his name in a totally wrong Chinese word as well as the sequences of the calligraphy stokes. He just grab the China artist’s calligraphy pen and show him how to write a correct Chinese word! Seems he had giving this China artist a very hard time!
This incident told us, as an entertainer, as a professional, we must always correct our mistake, always try our best to improve ourselves, no way for us to take anything for granted.
