LABUAN: The ‘2016 Laugh Factory’s Funniest Person in the World’ Harith Iskander has sent fans into a frenzy by announcing his 2018 Malaysia tour.

The godfather of StandUp Comedy in Malaysia is performing across the nation on his Harith Iskander #KitaOK Live Comedy Tour 2018 and Labuan will be his last gigs scheduled for March 16.

Harith, who was the Asia’s Best Stand-Up Comedian Award 2014 by Top 10 of Asia Magazine is brought to the duty-free-island by Labuan’s non-government­al organisati­on of Labuan Society and Tiara Hotel. The curator of the biggest stand-up comedy festival in Asia has performed live at hundreds (if not thousands) of shows and entertaine­d thousands (if not millions) of people with his unique and original materials.

His comedy performanc­e is in great demand and company functions are never complete without Harith inevitably bringing the house down with his routine.

In 2012, Harith headlined the “Funiest of Malaysia Comedy Tour” which covered showed at both the Brisbane and Melbourne Comedy Festival as well as shows in Sydney.

Labuan Society chairman Azhar Othman said the stand-up comedy event was a fund-raising event for the associatio­n’s fund to undertake various activities that it had lined up.

“Labuan Society hopes that the funds collected will go a long way in financing events and programmes such as Labuan Society Humanitari­an Fund.

“It is hoped that people on the island and the surroundin­g town and cities like Brunei, Miri and Kota Kinabalu will come to meet the internatio­nal comedian at the same time in support of Labuan Society humanitari­an efforts”, he said.

Enquiry on the event is obtainable via Labuan Society Facebook or to contact Ms Pearl Koh at 010 9822212
