Story of AhMo :
AHMO is an epithet describing Westerner or the West in Chinese Hokkien dialect.
It literally means red hair and the usage is similar to the Japanese word K?m? or Cantonese term Gweilo.
In general, local Hokkien people often used the term Ang Mo to distinguish whatever originates from the West.
Some examples are Ang Mo Lang (Westerner), Ang Mo Mia (Western name),
Ang Mo Kio (Red Tomato) and Ang Mo Chiak (Western Cuisine).
The origin of the term Ang Mo could be traced from the contact between Hokkien people in Southern Fujian
province of China with the Portuguese and the Dutch during the 16th and 17th century.
This is most likely because red hair is a common trait among the Westerners.
With the large migration of Hokkien people to South-East Asia,
predominantly Malaysia and Singapore, the term Ang Mo became more widespread.
Nowadays, it is still a common term among the local Hokkien
but it is no longer a racial slur as it might imposed to some yesteryears.
