Prior to his election SBS Chinese aired a story about Lim that included the claim that "as a Chinese man born and raised in Malaysia, Lim was given the opportunity to learn nine languages, including Malay, Mandarin, Indonesian and Burmese." That claim has intrigued Australians born and schooled in Malaysia, like this writer, who cannot recall any school in Malaysia that provided that range of languages in the curriculum.
