Syed Saddiq Gets Roasted By YouTuber In An Interview But He Responds With Some Sick Burns

Follow us on Instagram, TikTok, and Telegram for the latest stories and breaking news.

Our personal favourite episodes are definitely the ones with Barack Obama, Brad Pitt, and Matthew McConaughey.  

But instead of Yang Berhormat (YB), it's Young Bro, an address they somehow establish after trying very hard to suppress their laughter.

"Assalamualaikum, da jia hao, eppadi irukeenga vanakkam. My name is Syed Saddiq. I'm the member of parliament (MP) of Muar. And today, all of you, including this guy to my right, are also in Muar," begins Young Bro.

Very quickly, show host Sai asks whether "da jia hao" (Chinese for hello) is the only Chinese phrase he knows, to which the 30-year-old MP sharply retorts that he definitely knows "more Mandarin, Cantonese, Hokkien, and better than your Malay lah".

It's best for you to watch the video to enjoy the duo's killer comedic prowess.

Without spoiling too much, check out some of the questions Sai asked:

– Is 大家好 the only Chinese phrase you know?
– What do you become when you're happy?
– Are votes based solely on your handsome face?
– How often do you open your own IG?
– Do you spend more time on Yang Berbulu's IG or your IG?
– If your cat and rakyat drop into the river, who will you save first?
– Is your dad a Singaporean?
– Do you plan to make Muar the next Singapore?
– How long do you think RM1 will be SGD3?
– What is the plan for MUDA in 50 years?
– Does MUDA have any plans to recruit ex-UMNO member, KJ?
– Why do you think Proton sales have skyrocketed after it's been bought out?
– Do you prefer Myvi or X70?
– Should UMNO and BERSATU be renamed to UMNO 1 and UMNO 2?
– Did you expect most of UNDI18 to go for PAS？
– Is Johor Laksa made of spaghetti?
– Vote for Sarawak Laksa or Penang Laksa?

Our favourite joke comes after Sai confirms Syed Saddiq's love for both his cat and the rakyat, asking, "So one day, if your cat and the rakyat drop in the river, who would you save first?"

Syed Saddiq: Rakyat can swim or not? My cat can swim.
Sai: Really ah?
Syed Saddiq: Yeah.
Sai: What a good puss... I mean wow, smart cat. So, you would save the rakyat lah? Just leave Yang Berbulu (the MP's cat) alone?
Syed Saddiq: Yeah, because my Yang Berbulu is as independent as me. Can swim.
Sai: What a smart PR answer. Smart move.
Syed Saddiq: That's why I'm here.

"He's so kind to come down to Muar just to bring us [to] tour around and [do] the interview. Then, on the very same day, he had to rush back to KL. So much daddykasi for our small channel," the YouTuber shared.

When asked whether he had prepped Syed Saddiq with some sick burns beforehand, Sai said everything we see in the video was done in one take without any rehearsal.

Sharing some insight into the interview, Sai said, "Believe it or not, we did send some questions to him to make sure [they are] not too offensive. But he told us, 'Nevermind. Any questions also can. I will pusing pusing, no problem.'

"So, basically, there's no rehearsal and it's a one-take interview. I also did some impromptu questions on the spot, too."

Sai also revealed that he met the Muar MP at an event two weeks before the shoot.

"And that's where we had this idea of parodying Between Two Ferns, with the flavour of our channel. We then started our two scripts. We shot two videos: one interview [and] another one about touring in Muar," he said.
