how is he wrong?

A majority can be incorrect. If a parent names their child Joe but wants it pronounced "Joey", then literally every single person who pronounces his name as "Joe" will be wrong, even though that's the common method of saying that name.

And tri, I don't know what to say. I've lived here 29 years, my parents 60-something, but we speak proper English. I hope this doesn't sound stuck up or anything, but Pidgin is more of a gutter language to us I guess.

I also don't really know what that has to do with the pronunciation issue though. Japanese people tend to know how to pronounce Japanese words, especially those from Japan. They would know that "carry-oh-key" or "ka-muh-ka-zee" are incorrect, although they might still say it like that to fit in. Also "proper" Japanese, is the correct way. Even if some people have forgotten it or have chosen to abandon it, that doesn't make it wrong.
