Doctor Commander Chaghir is obsessed with rice. Which makes sense seeing as they are a member of The Order of Yuan Longping. 袁隆平 Yuan Longping (1930-2021) was an ancient Terran agricultural scientist who specialised in hybrid rice cultivation and production, which contributed to a boost in Terran food security.
When Chaghir is not working in the agronomics lab or the hydroponics garden, they can often be seen volunteering for rice cooking duty in the ship's main canteen. Even their hobbies are rice-related. They brew rice wine. They raise rice paddy ducks. And they play the Angklung, an ancient Terran musical instrument from the Java region which was traditionally played during the rice planting seasons centuries ago.
Rice has even played a role in Chaghir's love life. Their wife, Doctor Kylie Singh claims that Chaghir's Pulao is one of the main reasons for their marriage having lasted for so long. 🤣
