THERE’S a Chinese guy who wants to run for the highest office in the land. No, it’s not some DAP fellow and it’s not this land. It’s Andrew Yang (pic), an American of Taiwanese descent who believes he can topple Donald Trump.

Never heard of him? Me neither till a month or so ago. He popped up in my Google news feed one day and admittedly, I got curious about him because of his ethnicity.
