Kok for his and Parker Po-fei Huang's textbook ''Speak Cantonese'' initially circulated in looseleaf form in 1952 but later published in 1958. Unlike the Yale romanization of Mandarin, it is still widely used in books and dictionaries, especially for foreign learners of Cantonese.

The third in the seven-film ''Girl Boss'' series, it was directed by Norifumi Suzuki and starred Miki Sugimoto and Reiko Ike. Cast * Miki Sugimoto * Reiko Ike * Emi Jō () Critical response Allmovie critic Donald Guarisco calls ''Girl Boss Guerilla'' a "prototypical example of Japan's homegrown 'pinky violence' genre," adding "Miki Sugimoto and Reiko Ike make for charismatic and believable 'tough gal' leads, Suzuki directs the film with vigor, and the finished film benefits from the high production values and slickness inherent to Japanese exploitation films of this era."

Also, the film features sudden bursts of slapstick comedy that will leave others scratching their heads in confusion." Guarisco concludes that the film "is a schlo ...
