"Eh! Wat Yu Talking?" chronicles of Malay Humour

[I'll come up with one or two everday]

Number 1 = The Mosquito

One day, Pak Him, Pak Mat and Pak Lah were sitting together sharing a meal. As they were eating, a mosquito started to buzz around their heads. Quick as a flash Pak Him unsheathed his keris [lik a small sword] and slashed the air. The mosquito was cut into half and fell to the floor, dead, Pak Mat nd Pak Lah were duly impressed. Presently, another mosquito began buzzing around their heads. Quick as a flash, Pak Mat unsheathed his keris and slashed the air. The mosquito was cut into three pieces and fell to the floor, dead. Pak Him was amazed and patted Pak Mat on the shoulder in admiration and approval. Soon another mosquito began buzzing around their heads. Without looking up from his plate, Pak Lah unsheathed his keris and slashed the air frantically. The mosquito did not fall down dead; instead, it continued to buzz around their heads. Both Pak Him and Pak Mat looked at each other quizzically. They then turned to Pak Lah and remarked, "What was all that about? We saw you slash the air with yor keris but the mosquito lives." Pak Lah looked up from his plate and said, "Aah but now the mosquito is circumsised!"
