Jun 26, 2011 at 21:32 comment added Sunni That is true. In China, sometimes people pronounce their names using dialect. Like sur name "Zhang", in Hongkong, it is pronouced as "Chang". "Shing Tung Yau", in Chinse, should be pronounced as "Chengtong Qiu". It is free, people have different choices in nonenglish speaking countries.
