When PM Lee likes Super Kan Cheong Style, it is certainly a big hit! The Singaporean spoof of internet viral sensation Gangnam Style, by South Korean rapper Psy, has caught the eye of Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong.
PM Lee shared the video with followers on his Facebook page, which was produced for Children’s Day by Tickled Media, on his Facebook page on Thursday evening, saying that he “enjoyed” it.

He also said that it was a, “timely reminder to parents not to be so ‘kancheong’ and to let our kids have their childhood”.
‘Kancheong’ is a Cantonese for “anxious” or “panicky”. PM Lee had previously mentioned that children should enjoy their childhood in his National Day Rally speech in August. He had also urged parents not to be overzealous about preparing their children for Primary 1.
Here’s what some of our parents have to say about the video:
Pauline Zhou: Hahaha! This is so funny! Happy Children’s Day.
