Hokkien is a Chinese dialect but not the main language of Malaysia (which is Bahasa) likely of little or no relevance.

Tan didn't like the Bluebotd because he thought it was weak compared to how he saw a football club. Why this is still debated more than two years after the club reverted back I have no idea.

I doubt they call it the penis bird...
