Her name is Nabela Qoser. She is the 1st non chinese reporter to speak Cantonese in Hong Kong.

Seems flawless. I didn't spot a single pronunciation mistake.

It is extremely rare to see a non-chinese use the local dialect without any accent at all. She gets mad props in the HK community.

Misread title as INDIANA WOMAN and was sure the video would be some toothless redneck saying "ching chong choi chow" on local news.

As someone that wouldn't know good Chinese from badly accented Chinese, I would much rather have seen THIS video! I laughed out loud just reading your post.

Quite unusual to Indian people! There have difficulties to speak different languages, I know italian a little bit and it's quite weird to hear them talking in italian.

Didn't she just grow up in Hong Kong? It was a British colony, so Indians showing up wouldn't be unusual.
