Those days, 555 was also a brand of small pocket size notepads, usually used by mamak to record those hutang owed by those who drink first, pay later (at month end  ) ....When mention "mamak tiga lima" he would know what to do !
For me, 555 in cantonese, means FAI-FAI-FAI (quick-quick-quick) |
In Vietnamese 5 = hi, so 555 is hi hi hi.......
