MACC: FAREWELL TOUR in The Malay Mail

Malaysian comic quartet to tickle your funny bone on ‘farewell’ tour nationwide, as well as Singapore, Hong Kong and Australia 

BY MELANIE CHALIL

PETALING JAYA, August 6 — Popular funnymen Douglas Lim, Phoon Chi Ho, Kuah Jenhan and Dr Jason Leong will embark on an international tour beginning next month bringing a dose of Malaysian humour to Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia on top of a nationwide tour.

The quartet is also known as the Malaysian Association of Chinese Comedians or the MACC, not to be confused with the government agency.

MACC Mania X: The Goodbye Tour will be the lads’ 10th and final tour as a quartet.
It will also be their first time touring internationally.

For the past decade, the four of them have been presenting their annual series of shows and fans will remember the likes of Planet of the Apeks, I Want to Touch a Douglas and Now That’s What I Call Jokes Vol. 8.

Dubbed the stand-up comedy event of the year, The Goodbye Tour will kick off on September 12 in Penang followed by Johor before moving to Singapore, Kota Kinabalu, Kuching and Hong Kong.

The comics will then tour four Australian cities, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and Perth, culminating in a grand finale at HGH Convention Centre in Kuala Lumpur on November 15 and November 16.
The tour is produced by Two Funny Productions, established by Leong and Kuah as a platform for stand-up comedians in Asia.

MACC was formed in 2009 by Lim after deciding to become a comedy headliner. Lim then approached Phoon who performed regularly with Kuah at TimeOut KL’s Comedy Thursdays.

The then-trio presented their first show which sold out on the second week and their performances have sold out ever since.

Leong joined the group in 2011 after he was spotted at another TimeOut KL Comedy Thursday session.

“That’s when the MACC became legendary,” Leong said.

“This will be our final tour before we take a break and explore other solo projects,” said Lim.

“Writing a new show every year is both exciting and demanding. While we thoroughly enjoy it, perhaps it’s wise to stop for a while to reflect and reenergise.”

Lim added that the audience can expect a few personal stories in addition to their comedic commentary.

5 STAR REVIEW FROM THE MICF 2019

Thank you Melbourne International Comedy Festival for this review! 3rd time lucky! Really appreciate this and I hope to come back next year!

THIS IS AWKWARD
https://www.comedyfestival.com.au/2019/funny-tonne/john-souness/reviews/douglas-lim

Douglas Lim is a very funny comedian from Malaysia and his show This Is Awkward is hilarious.

Douglas denies being the King of Malaysian Comedy and tells very funny stories of Malaysia’s obsession with having kings.

After explaining the origins of his name, Douglas recalls his experience crossing the road in Melbourne and tells a hilarious story about his suspicions on Australia’s immigration ideas and Australia’s apparent “Right of Way” policy.

Douglas then teaches the audience a little of Malaysia’s language and sayings before comparing them to our Australian slang. He finishes with some more funny stories including Malaysian customs at Chinese New Year and his views on fortune tellers.

One of the funniest comedians at this year’s Melbourne International Comedy Festival and a must see.

Melbourne International Comedy Festival comedian Q&A: Douglas Lim, This is Awkward

Douglas Lim, This is Awkward, Herald Sun

March 27, 2019 12:43pm

 

What can people expect from your show at this year’s Melbourne International Comedy Festival?

 

It’s going to be a brand new one-hour show. My comedy is generally observation based.

So, it’s going to be a commentary and reflection of my life in Malaysia before and after the shocking General Elections of 2018, where we elected in a new government for the first time since Independence. There will also be observations about Australia during my stay here.

What have you been up to since last time you were here?
Upon completion of my show This is Nice at MICF 2018, I went to New York for a play entitled Thicker Than Water.

It was a comedy about two Malaysians trying to sell a movie about America to America. We fail and get arrested by the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.

I then did a nationwide tour of my stand-up show together with the Malaysian Association of Chinese Comedians (not a real association).

After that I assumed head judge duties at our version of Last Comic Standing called Maharajah Lawak Mega, landed a lead role in a revival of a popular local sitcom called Spannar Jaya X and was a regular panel member in Malaysia’s first roasting program called Arena Panggang.

Who should see your show, and why?
I think anyone who enjoys comedy should come and watch my show. I’d be delighted if my fellow Malaysians came out in droves for a night of laughter and nostalgia about Malaysia.

However, I also really enjoyed performing for Australians who actually made up around 70 per cent of my audience during This is Nice.

Oh yes, I also usually have a nice jacket.

What’s your No.1 tip for people coming to see a show at the comedy festival?
I would really encourage people to have an open mind because the comedy shows at the festival are so varied; from straight stand up to improvisation, sketch comedy, physical comedy, experimental installations, etc …

And the cultural representation from so many different comedians should contribute to a refreshing night out.

Which other comedians/shows are you keen to see at this year’s festival, and why?
I would definitely want to watch Aaron Chen, Becky Lucas, Benny Darsow, Comedy Zone Asia, Danny Bhoy, Dave Hughes, David O’Doherty … Gosh, there’s just too many.

What do you love about Melbourne?
I definitely enjoy the level of politeness I experienced during my time in Melbourne.
Also, the respect accorded to non-Australians was very refreshing and welcoming. I don’t know if this is genuine or some elaborate international PR stunt, but whatever it is, keep doing it, please.

Who or what is your comedic inspiration, and why?
Like most Malaysian comedians, we grew up on a very limited diet of Eddy Murphy, followed by Russell Peters before having access to superstars like Michael McIntyre, Chris Rock, Dave Chapelle, Jim Jefferies, etc … I definitely admire their comedy and skill.

Anything else you want us to know about you or your show?
My moniker is “The King of Malaysian Comedy”. But this was a moniker given to me by the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. I am not comedy royalty in Malaysia. There is no such thing.

My father is just a retired air force pilot and my mum teaches line dancing to aunties after their visit to the morning market.

But I am funny.

And I’ve won a few comedy awards (actually just one).

And I think I’m the first Malaysian to be invited back by the festival three years in a row.

MELBOURNE: HERE I COME!

In 2018, Douglas Lim brought his show This is Nice to Melbourne, with candid observations and commentary that connected with Australians and Malaysians alike.

He spoke honestly about Malaysia’s struggle against an arrogant and corrupt government and the dreaded feeling that it was not going to change. It was a solid hour of lamentations wrapped in humour, criticisms camouflaged in comedy. Then he went home.

Malaysia had it's 14th General Elections... and changed the government for the first time since independence. So yeah... This is Awkward.

PM TEPI...

I would like to be offered some government projects now. Because as you can see, this is LITERALLY PM TEPI. Thank you Tun M for watching #olabolamusical and for greeting all the cast and crew. It meant a lot!

P.S. Please don't change government too soon because I will then have to behave like a celebrity and replace this photo with the new leader. Haih.

MELBOURNE INTERNATIONAL COMEDY FESTIVAL 2019
