Wow this guy is probably the most interesting guest ever on the show. He has a very engaging way of recounting his stories and has a very towkay vibe.

[@bc2238]

i loveeeee how john came to "defend" mayiduo with a deprecating joke on myd expense when he was "stereotyping" to "save" him and myd went CORRECT. Masterful... masterful. classy. legend. i love myd.

[@HoneyMoneySG]

Watched many of Mayiduo's interviews, he always seem like a funny guy to hangout with together with his sharp business sense 🤙

[@bloodtalon27]

wow. Randomly just clicked this video out of boredom, but this guy Mayiduo is really an inspiration. Hardworking, studious, compassionate, funny, intelligent. Really good man, this guy deserves the success he has.

Movie: Blonde blue eyed Caucasian male walk like Singapore ah beng with arms and legs wide swinging sideways. Chin pointing upwards at 25 degrees and lips slanted.

[@burpdigest]

i second in the fact that we should NEVER work with your partner. Very high chance of a broken relationship.

Please sleep more! I used to sleep about 3-4 hours a day… I ended up with a stroke!!

[@PaperPlay_]

mad props to u MYD. my kid is 3 as well, born in the covid lockdown period and your willingness to put away your phone till he sleeps at night is truly amazing. May y’all have lots of wonderful memories together and stay healthy!

When the father looked outside and saw a piece of cloud, instead of naming his son 'Cloud'(云), he name his son 'A Piece'(一朵). The joke is a double entendre; his father almost named his son Ma Yun(Cloud), which is the name of current Chairman of Alibaba, implying he would have had a good fortune if he was named after him. While also simultaneously implied the father is an uneducated ah beng, hence he chose 'A Piece' instead of 'Cloud'. It's basically a shock humor dad joke. The closest English joke would be this:

I agree with him. There is a work ethic culture here in Malaysia that is very damaging to start ups.

[@hellothere-sb5iy]

Ya, DO NOT start business with your gf/bf/husband/wife!!!!

[@weiqianggeraldchoo7157]

Amazing to have Mayiduo coming on the show and sharing his experience. He is very open with his mistakes, his flaws and even his experience to many. I sure want to meet him and to learn from him on how he can be so daring to venture out to start a business.

[@alui5362]

hahah mayiduo and simonboy are good guys lah, don't need scared. they are ah beng but mature one.

[@Crispyfries949]

Very inspirational guy. I think our youth needs more of such entrepreneurial talk. The path to success is definitely not easy.

[@TheZeeminty]

wa for the first time i watched 50mins podcast on youtube, it was very engaging and inspiring. respect mayiduo!

[@justlangston6936]

[@johnwong4424]
