I think she just had a bit of confusion with the Mandarin/Cantonese thing. Meeting with JJ, she would be taught the Mandarin phrases but there in HK, she's spoken to in Cantonese at times. Also being called Bin Qi Bu in Taiwan or China but Bun Kei Bo in Hong Kong probably confused her too. I would guess she generally has Mandarin interpreters that speak both dialects so that must have added to things as well.

Possibly, but still she's been to Taiwan enough times. I always thought that when you do visit a country you should at least know what language is spoken there
