  Forgive me for the delay, Master Banana.... but Cafe Casual is nowadays so quiet that I hardly notice any new activities around here.
  
  Anyway, 'Daulat Tuanku' loosely translates as 'Long Live the Master'. I think the phrase appears in the Malaysian pledge of allegiance.
  
  So.... daulat tuanku, Darth Banana.

  This is what people say when they meet the Agong or Sultan
  
  Of course, some of the people in the market perverse the words, and my mum said it got something to do with oyster omelette

  If you assume it's cantonese.....
  
  it sounds like a cantonese vulgar swear, but if it is, the sound he put is somehow wrong, esp the first word.
  
  it should be "Ngor Diu Gau chat lee"
  
  pinyin according to this table(change to big5code)
