Harith, 50, leads the 20 semi-finalists from around the world in terms of votes. The 20 comedians will be performing before a live audience in Helsinki, Finland on Dec 4 and 5, and only five will proceed to the finals. I call on my fans to vote for me to represent our country in the finals, and show the world that we have world class stand-up comedians,” he said. Harith is one of two Malaysians amongst 89 international stand-up comedians nominated for the contest, with the other being Dr Jason Leong. Organiser Laugh Factory invited Harith to submit a video of himself doing stand-up comedy in order to be part of the competition.
