‘If anything happens, we’ll crowdfund!’ Anwar jokes with Trevor Noah

PRIME Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today received a visit from South African comedian Trevor Noah ahead of his show tonight.

Anwar, who shared photos of their meeting at the Prime Minister’s Office in Putrajaya on Facebook, said they chatted about “politics, humour and all sorts of stories, with plenty of laughter along the way”.

“I also managed to share a few pointers on the kind of jokes he could bring to the stage tonight. Hopefully, no one takes offence!” he quipped.

He ended his post with a light-hearted assurance to Noah.

"Anyway, don't worry, Trevor, if anything happens tonight, we'll all crowdfund together!" he said in what appeared to be a jab at UMNO’s fundraising drive to pay the RM50 million fine imposed on its former president Najib Razak.

Noah made his Malaysian debut at Idea Live Arena in Petaling Jaya, yesterday. – November 10, 2026
