Singapore's most famous auntie is back to nag at you. Remember Liang Ximei, anyone?

The star of '90s variety show Comedy Night has returned, and this time 'round, she's declaring war on coronavirus.

"The coronavirus outbreak has everyone trembling in fear. Instead of watching the virus go viral, Liang Ximei has decided to do something about it," her alter ego, Jack Neo, wrote on his Facebook page.

On Thursday (Feb 13), the comedian-turned-director breathed new life into the self-penned tune "Don't Think You're Useless" with some new lyrics


不要害怕!! (原曲: 不要认为自己没有用)疫情爆发如此严重
大家都胆战心惊
与其坐着看
Virus go viral
粱细妹决定跟病毒宣战
鼓励和提醒大家
让大家不伤脑筋

 part two在这里，还有很多东西你不知道的：

In the trippy music video, the auntie sported her signature look — blue eye shadow, red glasses and green floral blouse — and dished out advice on how to survive the coronavirus outbreak.

She urged people to stay calm during this period and encouraged those showing symptoms not to hide their illness. The auntie also thanked healthcare workers for their work and reminded the public to exercise good personal hygiene.

"Don't circulate messages that are unverified," she crooned, adding that blind panic is more jialat (troublesome) than the virus.

"If we help each other out, the virus cannot wreak havoc on our lives."

Now that Liang Ximei's dropped a tune, perhaps Phua Chu Kang will soon come up with a Covid-19 rap?

Everyone needs a little help sometimes.
Everyone needs a little help sometimes.
PHOTO: Everyone needs a little help sometimes. After all, no one is meant to go through life alone. If life has given you blessings, it's important to share those with your community. For some people, that could mean volunteering with a local charity or donating to a good cause. For others, sharing blessings might be as simple as having a conversation with someone or lending emotional support to a friend who is going through a tough time.

"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." (Isaiah 41:10).
