Ah lian is a term commonly given to a certain group of young Chinese girls in Southeast Asia, namely Singapore and Malaysia. These chinese girls, whose age ranging from their early teens to late 20s, usually centralize in the busier and more developed cities in the region.
Ah Lian Fashion
The Ah Lian would be the female version of an Ah Beng. They are something like the Asian version of a Bimbo. They wear a lot of branded stuff (mostly fake) and the label must be prominently displayed along with the latest mobile phone with trendy covers. Huge platform shoes are a requirement together with blonde/red/blue streaks in the hair.
Ah Lians like to dress like clowns; the more colorful the clothes are, the better for them. Their fashion can be said to be a mix and match of every bad trend. Short tight denim skirts with paint and labels that do not make the slightest sense, paired with small revealing tops that reveal their plastic bra straps and poor quality tattoos are favourites among them.
For shoes, Ah Lians love platform shoes and low boots, which they sometimes wear with lacy socks. Ah Lians usually have long nails that are painted very colourfully.
Ah Lian habits
Ah Lians are most likely to be found accompanying their male counterparts in cybercafes, malls, and nightclubs.
Ah Lian music
Like Ah Bengs, the Ah Lian love techno, dance, trance and whatever sort of music that tops the charts. They can be seen on the streets shaking their fists to the beat of the thumping bass from the big boom box which takes up space in their car boots.
Ah Lian jobs
Most Ah Lians work in the retail line, selling things like clothes to mobile phones. Rarely does an Ah Lian work in a multinational company.
Ah Lian language
Singlish and Manglish is a popular slang that they adopt. Foul language like "Tiu nia ma", meaning "Fuck your mother" is commonly heard.
Ah Beng
The male counterpart of the Ah Lian is commonly referred to as Ah Beng. An Ah Beng can be spotted with a car load of Ah Lians on a good night out. Their destination is almost always a disco or karaoke.
