By the severed head of Count Dooku! Check out the following too:

From starwars.com's entry on FELUCIA:

"Though Commerce Guild Presidente Shu Mai called Castell the planet of her birth, her home was Felucia, site of a sprawling compound outside the city of Kway Teow that served as a remote office and private retreat. The Gossams had colonized Felucia early in their interplanetary history, before moving onto larger and more lucrative exploits. Deemed too wild to support massive Gossam colonies, Felucia eventually became an exotic retreat for the wealthy and the poorly paid citizens that supported their extravagant whims.

The hardships of settlement produced few cities of note on Felucia, including Kway Teow, Har Gau and Niango. Before the Clone Wars, the Commerce Guild firmly held these population centers. What little corporate independence there was huddled in a few scattered townships founded by escaped workers and fugitive union organizers. "

Shu Mai...Hmmm...reminds me of Siu Mai (Shao Mai):

Har Gau????

Niango sounds very much like Nian gao...

I think it's like how beta testing works... you work for 'em, you get employee benefits. And that's why all employees are exempted from lucky draws or mosr promotional events, because they already get enough goodies.

I have a bad feeling about this. O_o What if they were to name a place on that planet as Roti John or Tau Gey (beansprouts) or Bee Hoon?
