Personal Thoughts Personally, I would not want to be around Chin-Kee for very long. He is loud, exaggerated, and has very little self-control. Because of these characteristics, many people, including myself, would want to avoid him as much as possible. However, the point of Chin-Kee is to be a stereotype with these qualities, so if you look at it that way, it makes sense why Chin-Kee is the way he is.
