Serve him right

'Serve him right' is often used to ridicule someone who has done something which shouldn't have been done at all. For example, if a person does not know how to climb a tree but insists on climbing one and as a result falls down from the tree, we will say 'Serve him right!'

In Malay, 'Serve him right' is 'Padan muka dia' and in Mandarin it is 'huo gai'
