2014 disappearance of Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 has stoked outrage in Malaysia and Singapore — but the US comedian who told it isn’t saying sorry.Jocelyn Chia, a Boston-born, American-Singaporean stand-up comedian, performed the bit at Manhattan’s Comedy Cellar back in April. This week, social media users were incensed after the club posted a clip of the joke in which Chia made light of the historical tensions between Malaysia and Singapore.The now-viral joke dives into the historical separation of the two nations, noting that Singapore has become a “first world country” while Malaysia has remained a “developing” one.She then likened the split to a romantic breakup and imagined Malaysia trying to woo Singapore back, saying that it hadn’t visited because “my airplanes cannot fly,” she said in the video clip, adding: “What? Malaysia Airlines going missing not funny?”She then quipped, “Some jokes don’t land.” Malaysia Airlines flight MH370 was traveling from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing, China, in March 2019 when it disappeared with 239 passengers aboard.
