Highest class Chinese dialect will be Cantonese followed by Mandarin and Hokkiens

Same goes to Chinese intellectual IQ ranking based on states.

HK-->Singapore-->Taiwan

The Taiwanese Hokkien are different from Malaysian Hokkien

oh, "highest class Chinese dialect" got "dew nia mah", "ham kah chan", "pokai"

that's "highest class", right?

Hokkien and the other dialects got no foul words?

Cantonese is the most used dialect in the international business scene.
Even Li Ka Shing the richest Chinese in Asia who is Teo Chew speaks Cantonese.
The other important Chinese dialect is Mandarin.
Guangzhou Province in China combined with HK-Shenzen is China's main economic powerhouse region has Cantonese widely spoken there.

Hokkien cannot be compared to these 2 main dialects.
