mari main chus!
do you remember how when you were kids, playing pulis-sintip (police & thief - converted into pasar language), we had to choose who gets to be police and thief? yeah we play chus/choos - pronounced “choose” which is the word it derived from anyway.
in plain english, it’s the rock, paper & scissor game - yeah.. back in the village this has always been the all tie-breaker, shortest game, unbiased selector - in short, the most widely accepted solution to every kids’ problem. we just call it “play choose” or “main cus” (well that’s how i thought it was spelled until i realised it was actually choose and noooo, i didn’t just realise it today).
anyway, i was slightly surprised when i stumbled upon the World RPS website, yes it’s the World Rock Paper Scissor website. My shocked didn’t stop at this simple game having a website, they even have a World Championship next month, Oct 22nd 2005!
They have a guide book being sold over at Amazon too. So, if you want to have your kids winning every kids game, buy the book!
