Din Beramboi

Mior Ahmad Fuad bin Mior Badri (22 December 1966 – 2 April 2010), better known by his stage name Din Beramboi, was a Malaysian comedian, actor and radio DJ and was widely known as a talented impersonator and stand-up comic who was very apt at improvisation. His memorable characters include Pak Rahim in the comedy series Afi dan Abah and the puppet Kicap in the talk show Tom Tom Bak, both shown on Astro Ceria. He also frequently collaborated with Afdlin Shauki, having appearances in some of the latter's films such as Buli and Baik Punya Cilok (2005). Din ventured into radio broadcasting in 2008, pairing with Aznil Haji Nawawi on Riuh Pagi, the daily weekday breakfast show on radio station Era FM.

His stage name "Din Beramboi" was originally used for two fictional characters back in 1990: one created by himself and another created by cartoonist Ibrahim Anon for the magazine Ujang, which became a plagiarism controversy during the mid-1990s.

Din died on 2 April 2010, after suffering from haemorrhagic dengue fever. He was buried at the Taman Ehsan Muslim cemetery in Kepong.

Biography Din Beramboi was born as Mior Ahmad Fuad bin Mior Badri on 22 December 1966 to emigrant Perakian Malay parents from Gopeng, Perak named Mior Badri Mior Idris and his wife Rahmah Abdullah Sani in Sungai Besi, Kuala Lumpur (then the capital of undivided Selangor state; also concurrently the present national capital of Malaysia since independence) as the third of four siblings with three sisters and their only son. He received his early education in the Setapak suburb whereby he attended the Setapak National Elementary School and later finished his secondary education at the Setapak National Secondary School, in which he was schoolmates with fellow celebrity, Azwan Ali.

Illness and death On 30 March 2010, Din was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) of the Kuala Lumpur Hospital, complaining of an extreme fever. Early reports said he was diagnosed with deadly leptospirosis. The following day, he was diagnosed with dengue shock syndrome which caused failure of his liver and kidney. During the time he spent in the hospital, Din was visited by family members, friends and colleagues.

Din's sister, Rozana Mior Badri, said that the life support machines installed since he was unconscious were stopped following the doctor's advice due to his internal organ failure.
