There are stand-up comedians in HK? Unbelievabuw!

This guy's name is Jim Chim Sui-man. I first discovered him the last time I was in Hong Kong when I noticed a crowd of people gathered round a plasma screen in a Mong Kok VCD shop. They were watching this performance:



I guess he does what stand-up comedians do the world over: Poke fun at the society around them and make us laugh. A lot of the Cantonese is above my head but I'm sure you'll get the gist of it.
