    對​越南​船民​嘅​謔​稱​。
    Cantonese corruption of the Vietnamese phrase "bắt đầu từ nay", or in English "from now on", which were the first few words of a Hong Kong radio public service announcement in Vietnamese in the late 80s during the boat people crisis, warning Vietnamese boat people of a screening policy against economic immigrants. As the message was often repeated on public radio, it became a derogatory slur of Vietnamese people in Hong Kong.
