Hailing from Groupon Taiwan, one among the many many Groupons around the world, Yuki graced us with her presence as we showered her with friendliness and 5 hours, 7 minutes of fame from photo-takings and friend-making! ![]()
Yuki, who works as a cookie maker to the merchants of Groupon Taiwan, had been introduced to each team in Groupon Malaysia. Her big white smile, freshly scrubbed skin and her melodic sway to every step definitely brought sunshine to our Monday blues! ![]()
Despite the busy schedule, Grouponers nevertheless took time off to discover her likes, dislikes, shoe size, favourite places in Taiwan, and thoughts about Malaysia and Malaysian men ![]()
Moving on, here’s 5 minutes with Yuki!
1) What are your first impressions of Malaysia?
- The weather, it’s really hot here. I remember wearing a thick sweater while boarding the plane to Malaysia and was overwhelmed with the tropical heat of
Malaysia upon touching down. Editor’s note:
- The traffic jam in Malaysia, back in Taiwan, we never have to wait 15 minutes at a traffic light! Ed: This wasn’t even rush hour!
2) Best food you’ve tasted in Malaysia thus far?
- Laksa Melaka
- Satay Celup Melaka
- Melaka Chicken rice ball
Ed: Yes she just got back from Melaka, Captain Obvious
3) Where was your first stop for some retail therapy in Malaysia?
- Pavillion, I think I bought too much. Or too little. I’m not sure (laughs)
4) Thoughts on Groupon Malaysia’s office?
- I’m loving the playground area Ed: the beanbag area
- Great people, very welcoming and friendly. The working environment gives me a sense of motivation to work, it’s so fun! But who was that topless guy running around? Ed: No comments
5) Have you tried Pearl Milk Tea (Bubble Tea) in Malaysia?
- Nope, but my friend told me that it does not taste as good as the Pearl Milk Tea in Taiwan!
6) Can you say anything in Bahasa Malaysia?
- Erm…”Atas” and “Terima Kasih” Ed: Please keep this interview clean
- Back in Taiwan, we have shows that broadcasts the “Rasa Sayang” song! *hums the tune to Rasa Sayang*
Well, we’re glad Yuki had fun as she moves on to the other parts of Asia for her Worry & Trouble Free (W.T.F.) Tour with nothing but a camera, lip gloss and a sense of direction.

Yuki’s so sweet. Thanks for sharing. But your attempts at humour and innuendos are not very impressive. Made us (yes, we are a group of friends) cringe!
