Lately, the situation has got serious on comedy! And this is no laughing matter! A comedy club had the audacity to allow for a lady to “redress” in front of an audience.
Many states and religious leaders will find this offensive. These things happen because we don’t have a “Comedy Act” (of Parliament) and are not governed by a “Comedy Commission”. A Comedy Commission will outline what are permissible comedies and what are not. Then if we have a regulator, enforcement is assured. All comedians will have to be certified by the Commission. In fact, they have to pass two papers in an exam for certification. And as part of the continuing education, they will attend two courses on comedy each year, and earn the minimum 20 points. The program for all aspirants is to follow the module “Jangan Ketawa”.

In fact, some universities could offer a degree in comedy – a first in the world! The other is all comedies must be in BM (not English), otherwise people may not understand the punch-line.
This whole area of comedy is a growth sector in Malaysia with clubs in every city, providing employment and a new joy in one’s heart.
Deviant comedians are reprimanded, fined or jailed for bringing disrepute to the noble, laughing profession. Club owners are licensed for their ability to crack jokes. And this is not a joking matter. Private jokes and comedies are not allowed. Otherwise, a society will become too comical. We are a serious society who can only cater to sanitised, fully vaccinated jokes. Pranks and spontaneous jokes are to be curtailed. And we have a secret service which will monitor all private jokes including those in social media or blogs. So, I must be careful in what I write – hope you take my thoughts deadly serious?
