I received news from Riyanna this morning that Yusof Bai just passed away. Her friend heard the news on the radio while driving to work. May God bless his soul.
Right now, I don’t know what the cause of his death is. I did a search on Twitter to see what other people are saying and found around 20 tweets about the death of Yusof Bai, but all not stating the cause of it. Look here – http://twitter.com/#search?q=yusof%20bai. A few said he died in hospital while critically ill. I’ll just wait for an official news update.
Yusof Bai was a famous malay comedian and actor of the 90’s when he was active with the order popular celebrities like Suhaimi Yusof, Alias Kadir and Ishak Ahmad in Suria Mediacorp. He wasn’t really popular, but he is an artiste worth remembering. :)
