Sending somebody into space

American Spaceman is called Astronaut
Russian Spaceman is called Cosmonaut
Chinese Spaceman is called Taikonaut
Malaysian Spaceman? - Can-or-naut!
Dr. Mahatir was thinking about sending somebody
into space. Three potential can-or-nauts were called
for an interview one Indian, one Malay and one Chinese.
Dr. M interviews the Indian first: "So, Muthu, this
is a dangerous mission. How much do you think you
should be paid?"
Muthu replied: "One million ringgit."
"Why so much?" asks Dr. M.
"Very dangerous mission, Datuk. Maybe *no* come
back!" replied Muthu.
"That's understandable," says Dr. M. "Thank
you...please ask the Malay guy to come here,"
So the Malay walks up, and is asked the same
question.
"Alamak!...2 million, Datuk," replied the Malay
candidate.
"Two million? That's twice as much! Even the aneh
before you asked for only one million."
"You see, Datuk," explains Mat. "I have 4 wives and
15 children ........
With 20 of us, it is a big family to support when I
am gone...!"
"I see," says Dr. M. "Okay, can you ask that Chinese
guy to come then?"
The Chinese guy comes in and Dr. M asks, "Ah Chong,
given this is a very risky mission, how much do you
want?"
Ah Chong thinks for a while, and says, "3 million."
Dr. Mahathir appears shocked. "What?!? 3 million!
Why so much?"
Ah Chong beckons Dr. M to come closer. He quietly
whispers into his ear,
"Datuk, one million you keep, one million I keep,
and then one more million to send that Aneh into
space lah!"
