THE frail Cambodian boy was lying motionless in bed, crying in pain at a home in Phnom Penh.
He was dying of Aids.
Unable to watch the pitiful five-year-old cry any more, local funnyman Moe Alkaff went to the boy's bedside and started making funny faces.
Seeing his antics, the boy's wails turned into laughter.
