A Malay, a Chinese, an Indian and an angmoh went on a cruise.
Out on the open ocean, the ship sank and they had to get into a lifeboat.

Being designed only for 2 people, the little lifeboat started to ride very low in the water and was almost sinking.

The four fellas came up with an idea: Each of them would tell a joke and everyone would laugh (or not). If one didn't laugh then the guy telling the joke would be thrown overboard.

First up was the Chinese, his joke was so funny everybody laughed. But the Malay guy didn't laugh, and the Chinese guy was thrown overboard.

Next up was the Indian. His joke was terrible, and the angmoh kept silent. But the Malay was laughing like crazy.

"Why are ya laughing?" said the angmoh.

"I just got the first joke."
