Myanmar Yangon and Bago - Is it a safe country for ladies backpackers?

What is your first impression towards this country - Myanmar? Situated next to Thailand, Myanmar has yet to capture the people's choice of traveling destination as compared to Thailand and had been listed as the least developed country in the world by The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). Let me share some of my experiences during my short trip to Yangon and Bago with my girlfriends. A reminder to Malaysians who would like to visit Myanmar after this, kindly ensure you have obtained a valid visa before departing to Myanmar. There are two ways for you to apply for a visa - Option 1, online application; Option 2, proceed to Everfine Services Sdn Bhd which is located near to LRT Masjid Jamek. Other landmarks would be Masjid Jamek Burger King /Macdonalds or 7-11 outlet.     The currency used in Myanmar is known as Kyat which we do not have it available in our forex. Hence, do bring enough of USD and you may proceed to the foreign currency exchange booth once you arrived in Yangon airport. After settling down our backpacks at the hostel in Yangon, we decided to experience the local street dining to wrap up the day.  Here is where we stayed. Electrical wires dangling all around. Speaking about the cleanliness of the city,  I've seen people littering around and peeing on the road as we walked by.  Most people in Myanmar do not speak English, we communicated via body language most of the time. The local street food was acceptable. Just the eating table was a bit too low and stray dogs watching over you hoping you will share some food with them. I used to have a dog as my pet at home and generally, I do not hate dogs. Hence, this is why I can still continue my meal even with the presence of the dog. After dinner, the 4 of us detoured to another route back to our hostel and we passed by Sule Pagoda on our way back.  It is a small pagoda located in the centre of Yangon, surrounded by busy streets and colonial-era buildings like the Supreme court building and Yangon city hall. We woke up as early as 6am to catch the early train  (8AM) to Bago and the Golden Rock. Bago was formerly known as Pegu. Traveling time via train from Yangon to Bago took us 2 hours.  We had booked the "first class" seats and this is how the Myanmar Railway interior looks like. The exterior of Myanmar Railway.After exiting the train station, there was a "taxi" waiting outside of the station but the driver will ensure the taxi is full before they start driving away. They will try to fit everyone in one taxi and the scene looked exactly like escaping refugees.Mount Kyaiktiyo (Kyite Htee Yoe), famous for the huge golden rock perched at its summit, is one of the three most sacred religious sites in Myanmar. The rock looks like it is going to topple any time soon was said that it was balanced by the hair of Buddha. Well, it's a legend. Believe it or not , it's up to you.     The effort in making your way up is exhilarating via a packed picked up truck. It was definitely a roller coaster ride! Hold on tight during your ride.  Look, their fee cover for your life insurance. I wonder how much do they cover? 4 of us decided to go for a high tea at one of the stores around the area before we head back to the hotel. We took a bus ride to return to Yangon the next morning. On our way back, we stopped by Bago town to view a few stupas, walked the Bago market etc. Most of the pagodas here do have a donation box for people to donate money as the contribution will be used to upkeep the respective pagoda. Back in Yangon, we visited Shwedagon Pagoda, Bogyoke Market, Aung San Suu Kyi House and the night we before we departed home, we decided to go for a scrumptious meal at the Karaweik palace, a place to discover authentic food and traditional performances.

Fashion Comeback | Lusting After the Mulberry Mini Alexa Bag

The iconic and ever sought after Mulberry Alexa, named after British It girl Alexa Chung, was relaunched once again late last year. Having taken the luxury world by storm a decade ago, Mulberry has seemingly chosen to take the fashion reigns again. This time, with a more sustainable and modern twist to its old counterpart.Thanks to Ms Chung's eclectic, cool girl sense of style, the fashion house had no qualms in designing a bag honoring her. While the regular sized Alexa stirred a larger frenzy, it's the mini I'm lusting after.
  It seems that the comeback is grander than ever thanks to the dreamy color variations like the Chalk, Cambridge Green and Cloud. These hues including this neon beauty below, have certainly paved a way to my heart (and savings). A size practical for women who are on-the-go, the Mini Alexa looks gorgeous handheld or as crossbody. The satchel silhouette embraces both modernity and casual vibes, perfect for both day and evening.

Take Care of Your Joints Now by Eating These Foods

Joints are crucial to our body, but since they move a lot, they also take the most damage throughout the years. Wear and tear of cartilage around our joints will lead to pain, inflammation and even paralysis. Eventually, it'll lead to chronic degenerative arthritis.If you think there is no need to take care of our joints while we're young, then you'll only grow old to regret. Although we can choose to eat whatever we want at this age, remember to keep these foods in our diets to care for our joints and cartilage:
  BeansTo preserve joint functions, it's best to prevent any inflammation as that will destroy our collagen and cartilage. Beans have good anti-inflammatory effects. It is rich in protein which makes up most of our collagen. Besides that, beans contain legumes which contain amino acids that help with cartilage restoration.
  CitrusTo form collagen in the cartilage, we also need plenty of Vitamin C. Vitamin helps improve cartilage restoration as well as cell regeneration in general. Not only that, it also has protective effects too!
  Green TeaThe catechin and polyphenol compounds in green tea are helpful for cartilage regeneration and relieve chronic degenerative arthritis symptoms. Besides, like citrus, it also has protective effects.
  NutsFor our body to absorb more hyaluronic acid, it needs more iron and magnesium. These components can in turn be obtained from nuts. However, keep in mind that nuts are high calorie foods and should be taken in moderation.
  Brussel SproutsBrussel sprouts contain a ton of Vitamin K, which is an important nutrient when it comes to the health of our bones and joints. While preparing, consider cooking with olive oil to get maximum benefits.
  These foods are easy to find and not hard to integrate within our diets. Just having a little bit of each everyday could work wonders for our joints. Remember, if you wait until later, it's already too late!


M'sian Policeman Under Fire In China For Taking A Bribe From A Chinese Tourist Which She Revealed In A Viral Video

A video of a Chinese tourist sharing her experience of getting bribed by a Malaysian police officer during her trip has surfaced online and it has quickly gone viral.In the video, the woman narrated her experience of getting followed by a police car one night while going home after a dinner with her Malaysian friend in Kuala Lumpur. Their taxi driver had to stop the vehicle when he noticed a police car was trailing them from behind. The policeman then walked up to them, specifically asking the Chinese woman for her identifications. She then explained then she is from China and does not possess an IC. The policeman proceeded to ask for her passport, in which she responded, "I have it in my hotel, I didn't bring it along with me."
  She offered to show the officer her China's identification cards, her Hong Kong and Macau pass and the photo of her passport. The police officer insisted that he needed to examine her passport to confirm that she entered Malaysia legally, or he'd have to take her to the police station. Panicked, the woman started calling the China's embassy but to no avail.The taxi driver then quietly told her that the police officer is actually trying to take bribes from her, to which she said "I don't have cash with me." The taxi driver was ever so kindly willing to lend her a RM100 to pay the police officer off. The police officer, however, wasn't happy with the amount and demanded more. The driver had to give him another RM100, which was still wasn't enough for the officer. Her Malaysian friend had to beg the police officer in Malay, saying they were out of cash.In the end, the police officer let them go. The video was uploaded by a random user on TikTok, which you can watch below:  This is the purported incident that the woman said occurred to her while she was in Malaysia. She also added that a friend of hers from Malaysia had informed her about how some Malaysian police officers would follow you to the ATM and watch as you withdraw money, or they would lock you up at the police station where you would be at risk of harassment from the policemen if you are a woman. Netizens who have watched this video however, have insisted that there are always two sides of the story and the officer in the video could also be wrongly framed, and there was no evidence of bribery caught on camera.What do you think?

To get your hands on the infamous Wagyu Pizza, you must place your orders between 8 and 9 pm on the specified days. The customer will then be given a number to WhatsApp him after that. Jason had included a screenshot of the relevant information from Jofliam's Instagram story, along with a statement that the influencer will delete his stories as soon as the orders were filled.Orders that have been successfully placed will be available for pickup on Saturday or Sunday of that week. Jason went on to describe how his girlfriend was able to watch Jofliam's IG story and place an order for them as it was also Jofliam's last week of accepting orders before taking a lengthy Ramadan holiday.
Therefore, it was their turn to pick up the order from the influencer on March 18, a Saturday. As a result, after he arrived at the designated location, they had to wait for the following instructions. It seems to be a gated residential neighbourhood, yet they were told to stop by the side of the road with their hazard lights on.
They would also need to show Jofliam the text as evidence that no one had skipped the line before they could receive the pizza.
Interestingly enough, he recognized Jason right away from TikTok, which prompted Jason to say in the video that Jofliam seemed to be "a friendly guy, but there's one thing he can't fake: the taste of his pizza."
Before eating a slice, Jason noted to the camera that the pizza was a little soggy. But much to his surprise, he thought the pizza was good, despite the fact that other internet users wanted him to say something negative about it.
Even his girlfriend enjoyed it!

"Spicy, sour, salty and this "stringy" spice adds a unique herbal taste whilst the pickle also had a nice sourish touch. But not everything was great."Jason thought the crust wasn't that great, considering it to be average. As for the cheese, it was alright but there wasn't enough cheese pull to please them.When it came to the star ingredient which is the wagyu beef, he said, "It was melt-in-your-mouth tender, juicy with a very strong beefy taste."In short, he had some reservations, but it's fair to say that both Jason and his girlfriend enjoyed the pizza.

Later in the video, Jason was comparing the pizza from Christine's Bakery to that from Jofliam, stressing that he wasn't doing it because he favoured one over the other, but rather because there could be better alternatives available for a cheaper cost. And that considering the amount of internet praise Jofliam's pizza had gotten, it seemed to be overrated.
His last words to his review were, "It's good, but you shouldn't feel the FOMO if you don't eat it. Especially with the price and the location...even getting the order from him is a lot of hassle. But if you love pizza and you have to try everything then this is worth trying once in a lifetime."After giving it his approval, he gave the pizza a score of 7.5 out of 10, thereby putting it on the map.Update baru di ig story jofliam pic.twitter.com /arBg25HpFH— Mona 모나(@monaphyx) April 3, 2023 Jofliam, however, saw the review differently after witnessing how much attention Jason's video received, believing that Jason was sabotaging his efforts.In a deleted IG Story, Jofliam voiced his dissatisfaction with the review, even though the pizza he sells isn't particularly tasty.
"Even when people score me a 2 or 3, I'm never upset."Nevertheless, what prompted him to express his opinion was his belief that Jason had taken "advantaged" of him by disparaging his pizza and extolling the virtues of a competing brand.
 "I felt used, which is what prompted me to want to speak up. In a way, he was marketing another brand's pizza while creating content using my pizza to get views."He eventually apologised publicly, confessing his mistakes and expressing the hope that no one would defame him.

The video which surfaced on Twitter has garnered about 1.1 million views, with netizens urging for strict action to be taken against the man for endangering other road users with his unruly behaviour."That weapon alone can land him in a minimum of 5 years (in jail). Minimum. That does not include the threats to bring harm," user @famiejamil said.User @Bellaayusof said: "Keeping (a weapon) in the car is already illegal, let alone brandishing them in public."It's getting worse in Malaysia. Everyone just wants to act like thugs," says user @Meriazenidaaa.


The Incessant Agony Of Still Being Single In Your Late 20s And Why You Shouldn't Give A Sh*t

One of the most commonly practiced self-inflicted tortures humankind like to do to themselves is their deliberate choice to go through the suffering of comparison and subsequently wonder why they're frowning. via GIPHYIt's easy to put our life in a metaphorical petri dish and observe it under a magnifying glass while we point out every little aspect that we think needs polishing. It's even easier to subject ourselves to pain in the form of overanalyzing how far behind we are compared to our peers. via GIPHYSo, you're single in your late 20's. You feel your biological clock ticking, nay, tearing away every bit of your youth with every tick-tock. While some of your friends have already started picking baby names for their firstborn, you find comfort in binge-watching Bridgerton at 3 AM and eating pancakes for dinner. At best, you'd be lucky if a guy reacts to your Instagram story selfie with a heart-eyed emoji. The point is, singledom when you're nearing your 30s is often associated with the gloomy themes of never-ending doom, when it doesn't need to be painted all grey. Here's why you shouldn't be too hard on yourself if you 're still single in your late 20s:Wholesome platonic relationships exist too.via GIPHYWe're conditioned to believe that romantic connection is one of the very few crucial ingredients that make up a fulfilling life, but platonic relationships are not a secondary kind of love or something you settle with while you're on your quest to find your one true love, but rather, an extension of it. You'd be surprised at how much the captivating magic of having a few real ride-or-dies could lift you up. Independence is a superpower. via GIPHYInstead of dreading your menless period, rejoice in the fact that you've got all the time in the world to fully and unapologetically focus on yourself. At the risk of sounding cliche, you should play around with the idea of falling in love with yourself and you'll understand why people say independence can taste so sweet.Let yourself go through crucial character development. via GIPHYLet's face it: most of us are still dealing with childhood trauma, bad high school memories that somehow still haunt us... basically all the heavy aftermath of growing up. It's so much better to continuously work on ourselves by identifying our triggers, striving to be better than our circumstances, and going to therapy than infecting everyone in our path with our toxic traits. In the end, our happiness is our own sole responsibility. Don't tie it to such trivial things as whether or not you have a man. Just remember that timing isn't linear and you should enjoy where you are right now before it becomes a distinct memory of your past. You don't want to look back and think, "oh I wish I didn't care so much about being single!", no?

A Cheap and Simple Way to Get Fluffy & Feathered Brows

Arghh don’t you just hate anyone who has great eyebrows! We absolutely envy them. How? It it their genetics? Is it an eyebrow tattoo? Or is it a technique that they use?
  Well, it is a technique. It is a technique that doesn’t require any expensive products. All it needs is a bar of soap. Intrigued? I guess it. So, here’s how to do the soap brow technique:What will you need?+ a spoolie brush+ some facial mist+ a TRANSPARENT soap – unless you want white residue on your eyebrows+ an eyebrow pencilHere’s how to do it:1. Spray some face mist on your spoolie brush. Just try 3 or 4 sprays on your first try then slowly find the perfect number of sprays that work for you. 2. Rub your brush on your soap bar until you get a gel like residue. If you have a little eyebrow hairs, then don’t overdo it with the gel. A little goes a long way. But, if you have bushy eyebrows then don’t be shy, put some more. 3. Use your soapy spoolie and comb your eyebrow while shaping it the way you want them to set. The gel doesn’t dry immediately so take your time shaping it. 4. Now, let it dry and set. 5. Finally, if you see some areas that look kinda empty, just fill them in with your eyebrow pencil. That’s it! Now you have fluffy, feathered brows. Here's a video example:

10 Weird Laws Around The World That Will Shock You

Every country is different with different people, cultures, food, politics, religion, language, and laws. It is crucial for us to find out the basic laws in the foreign country before we plan a trip. Thus, let us discover the unusual laws around the world today. 1. No Chewing Gum in SingaporeThe laws exist to prevent the people from littering the used gums that caused the Mass Rapid Transit system (MRT) from breaking down. Before the laws are enforced, there are many cases where the people stuck chewing gums on the door sensor of MRT which causes the door to malfunction and eventually lead to disruptions of the public transport. The Housing and Development Board has reported in spending $150,000 a year to clean up the gum litter. Thus, Singapore banned all gum substances in 1992.The only exceptions are nicotine and dental gums which are therapeutic for the smokers. Keep in mind not to bring any chewing gums before you visit Singapore!2. Weirdest Driving Law- No Dirty Car In RussiaWith a population of over a million people, there are going to be some dirty cars moving around in the country. This law exists to ensure that your car has a clean and visible number plate. A fine to 2000 rubles (30 EUR) can be issued to the dirty car owners.3. Feeding Pigeons in St. Mark’s Square in Venice Is IllegalThe law has been implemented since 2008 in an effort to protect the UNESCO status city. The pigeons have been blamed for destroying the historical monument and buildings as their feces landed on the facades and monuments. Besides, they are the potential to carry diseases and spread them to humans. The fine for feeding pigeons in the area can be up to $700. 4. “Fat Tax” On Junk Food In Kerala, IndiaKerala is the first state in India to have a 14.5% tax on burgers, pizza, donuts, and other fast food or fatty dishes that are served in branded restaurants. The fat tax is used to raise awareness of the public for their food choices, creating a healthier population, and reduce the rate of obesity in the state.5. Patriotic Canadian Radio Stations In Canada, all radio stations must ensure at least 35% of the music they aired every week, between 6 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday to Friday, is a Canadian singer. The government believes that this act is able to preserve their culture and identity as well as giving more opportunity for local talents to shine.6. Do Not Hike Naked in SwitzerlandAfter a naked German walked past a lovely family which are having a picnic in the Alps in 2009, the Swiss has banned the act of hiking in nude. There was a time where the Swiss and Germans made naked hiking a trend more than 10 years ago. Thus the Swiss parliament has passed the law to make sure their people are hiking in proper attire.7. No High Heels in AcropolisGreece has banned high heels at Acropolis since 2009 to protect Parthenon. High heels which have a sharp end may cause damage to 2500 years old ancient monuments and ruined their preservation efforts. So, leave your high heels at home and be join the effort in protecting the historical sites with respect.8. Try to Avoid Winnie the Pooh T-Shirt in PolandWinnie the Pooh is banned from a Polish playground and schools due to its “dubious sexuality, inappropriately dressed and half-naked”. One of the councilors even describes the bear as “wholly inappropriate for children”. Therefore, it is best to avoid having a large Winnie the Pooh appearing in front of your T-shirt while you visit the country.9. No Selfies or Tattoos With Buddha in Sri LankaWhen we take a selfie with Buddha, we will turn our back on the Buddha, make sure that we look great with the Buddha before pressing the capture button? Oh no, turning our back to Buddha is a sign of disrespect of God in Sri Lanka. In addition, sometimes there are bans for taking photos for certain Buddhas. There are cases where the travelers have been suspended in jails in Sri Lanka because their photos showing them posing with Buddha statues and pretending to kiss one of them. Be a good tourist, be respectful, polite, and comply with their basic rules when you visit a foreign country.Cover Photo: switzerland.photo's || srilanka_tourism


M'sian Woman Drops 'Binti' From Daughter's Name At Government Office Without Hassle, But The Wait For MyKid Continues

This Malaysian named Aysha Ridzuan took to Twitter to express her satisfaction with the birth registration process at UTC Keramat, which only took an hour to complete. Unlike her experience five years ago when registering her first daughter, there was no fuss about dropping the term "binti" from her daughter's name.  However, she mentioned that she still has not received the MyKid identification card and was advised to reapply next year.Many netizens questioned whether there was a need to take an oath or if it could be done directly at the counter to drop the term "binti." In the past, an oath was required for such changes. However, the process now involves placing the term "binti" in brackets on the form, alongside the name, and signing next to it.  It is worth mentioning that this particular registration was done at the UTC Keramat branch, whereas the previous experience took place at the Jalan Duta branch.Several individuals shared their own experiences about how difficult it is to obtain MyKid for their child, with one person revealing that they registered their baby in October of last year, but as of last week, the MyKid card was still not ready. When they contacted the relevant authority, they were informed that they had not yet processed half of the applications from 2021.    Meanwhile, some commenters criticized the woman for dropping the term "binti," arguing that it is important to include it in the name to indicate the Malay ethnicity, as without it, it may not be immediately apparent unless supported by a birth certificate. They further expressed their disapproval, assuming that the omission of the term was due to having a non-Malay partner. Surprisingly, amidst the discussions, it became evident that a significant number of individuals dislike the inclusion of "bin" or "binti" in their names.   On the other hand, some participants shared their positive experiences, highlighting the advantages of having the term, especially "binti," which simplifies certain processes in adulthood, particularly marriage-related matters. They explained that without the term, one may face difficulties in appointing a wali (guardian) for marriage.  Some individuals shared their personal stories of having to go through additional steps, such as finding a wali and going through a burdensome process due to the absence of their biological fathers. They suggested considering registering as "binti Abdullah" for those considering adoption, as it would greatly facilitate the lives of their future daughters.The process of registering as "binti" requires a visit to the National Registration Department (JPN) and submitting the necessary documents. Subsequently, an oath must be taken at the court, followed by a return to JPN to present the letter of oath. The process results in a new identity card issued within three months, replacing the old one.

ICYMI: Count How Many Times Steve & Robin Say Boobies" In This Blooper ReelWhat looms on the horizons for Hawkins, Indiana? What is Vecna's villainous future plan? And seriously, whats happening between Will and Mike?Here are some of the biggest mysteries the Duffer Brothers left for us to mull over until Stranger Things Season 5. WARNING: spoilers ahead!1. Did Papa really love Eleven? Eleven has a twisted past with the manipulative mad scientist Martin Brenner, aka Papa. Brenner first orders Elven to make telekinetic contact with the entity her refers to as the master way back in Season 1. This connection unleashes a demogorgon and cracks open The Mothergate the first known passage between Hawkins and the Upside Down. With what we now know about Vecna, this places even more blame on Brenner for the otherworldly consequences that devastated Hawkins. In Stranger Things 4, Brenner plays a central role in reactivating Eleven telekinetic abilities, but he also shackles her with a restrictive, power-inhibiting collar. Then, before he dies, he unlocks the imprisoning device. This final gesture probably isn't as redemptive as Brenner wishes it was after he so recently and selfishly tried to contain Eleven, his motivations are mostly rooted in self-interest, as far as we know. Assumedly, he knows Elven has to be the one to defeat Vecna and save the world, so he releases her. Did he truly love Eleven like a daughter or is Vecna right about Brenner's primary goal of harnessing their greatness? Maybe Brenner does care for Eleven, but certainly not in the selfless way Hopper does. Though we may have seen the last of Brenner, his mysterious nature could still haunt the final season. 2. Eleven created the Upside Down? As we learn more and more about the mythology of Stranger Things and the Upside Down, viewers have remained dedicated to figuring out all the specific ins and outs. In a pivotal flashback, we learn that Eleven sent One to the Upside Down, which is how he became Vecna. One detail in particular is a little unclear at first did Eleven create the entire Upside Down or just open the Mothergate?3. Where is Vecna now? The last time we see Vecna, in true horror movie fashion, the seemingly dead Big Bad has suspiciously vanished. We know for a fast that he's badly injured after sustaining a rain of cocktail fire via Robin and several shotgun blasts from Nancy, but where is he hiding? We also learn more about his ability to indirectly inhabit other people through spore-like smoke of the Mind Flayer, so it may be a while before we see the physical form of him again. Vecna will surely take his time plotting his next move while he heals up now that Hawkins is broken. Can Eleven use her powers to track his physical form, or will he keep the Stranger Things gang busy with his vicious underworld creatures while his spores spread?We'll find out in Stranger Things Season 5, slated for release in 2024 because good things come to those who wait.

WATCH: Goosebumps As Man Casually Holds Up "Gorgon" Frog Like It's A Furry Pet!

We'd like to honour this man with a bravery medal because no one has the guts like he does! In a short clip shared on TikTok, user @afiqasyrafazmi was filmed holding up a humongous frog found by the river. The shocking video has us shivering all over, considering how he casually inspected every inch of the "gorgon" amphibian without a sense of fright. Speaking of "gorgon", the term is becoming somewhat of a trend on the video-sharing platform, whereby users often associate it to "chonky" animals. This frog in particular, takes the cake in that category. What a sight indeed.  @afiqasyrafazmi jap lagi delete balik #gorgon  original sound - DBO_Wild

You’re Sleeping, but is it Quality Sleep? | 8 Ways to Find Out

With this pandemic, it is obvious that our sleep schedules have all gone haywire. From binging Netflix, to being glued to our phones, life has never seemed more mundane and chaotic, at the same time.
  We sleep, that's for sure, some maybe even more so than others. But, how much of that sleep, is actually quality sleep? In other words, how do you know if your sleep is worth sleeping? We could be wrong, but here are 8 ways, which would almost certainly improve the quality of your sleep. #1 Use your bed only for what it is meant for
  Being at home all day, everyday nowadays, has somewhat made the functions of our backbone alien to us. We can't seem to sit, or stand, without eventually just laying down. As means to ensure the quality of your sleep, be sure to only use your bed for when you go to bed. Other than that, stay away from it. #2 Fix your sleeping schedule
  Almost near impossible, we know. However, this is a rather important step in ensuring quality sleep. Fix your sleeping time everyday and religiously follow it. We promise you, it will only bring wonders. #3 Be active in the daytime
  This can seem trying, now more so than ever. Nevertheless, it is vital that you find a way to work your body, limbs, joins, etc. Walk around, go for a jog, do home workouts, yoga, a little bit of dancing. Keep your body moving and active. #4 Put your gadgets away before shut-eye
  When it's time for bed, place your gadgets aside, and calmly breathe, before you rest for the night. We're with devices literally 12 hours a day now, pretty sure 30 minutes away from it won't kill you. #5 Fix the temperature of your room
  Be comfortable when you sleep. Whether it's making your room warmer or colder, set the temperature around you to be what's best for you in that moment of time. #6 Switch off the lights
  Unless you're afraid of the dark, it'd probably be in your best interest to make the room you're sleeping in mostly dark. The darkness helps with falling asleep, and staying asleep. #7 No coffee, cigarettes or alcohol
  Don't worry, we don't mean forever, we just mean before sleeping. These substances have ingredients in them to keep you awake, and mess with your sleep. Do your best to stay away from them before you go to sleep, and you will have a more qualitied sleep. #8 Don't eat before bed
  As much as we are all guilty doing it, we are strongly advised against this. If your stomach is working to digest food when it should be resting, then it's obvious your body isn't getting the rest it so clearly needs.

TUDM Candidate Stripped & Brutally Attacked In Horrific Ragging Incident

Bullying or ragging is seen to persist not only among students but also among adults, as evidenced by a viral post on social media by a Twitter user, @ummiiiiinmo, who claims that her brother has been a victim of bullying during his training at the Pahang Air Base.Masuk airforce tapi macam masuk sekolah asrama. kau lah terpaling kapla high council. pic.twitter.com/6ZFIopz1d8— (@ummiiiiinmo) April 30, 2023 The complainant expressed the ordeal that her brother went through and demanded justice for the incident from the authorities.According to the complainant, several corporal-ranked military officers allegedly bullied the victim to the extent that he lost his hearing after being kicked.  They also reportedly stripped and beat him with rubber pipes and extinguished cigarettes on his tongue.Masuk airforce tapi macam masuk sekolah asrama. kau lah terpaling kapla high council. pic.twitter.com/6ZFIopz1d8— (@ummiiiiinmo) April 30, 2023 Not only that, but the perpetrators also stripped the victim naked and subjected him to group punches and assaults.

The Twitter post has garnered attention from netizens, with many condemning and sympathizing with the situation faced by the complainant's brother.An educational institution should NEVER be a place where students' lives become at risk.Jika dakwaan-dakwaan ni benar, saya gesa pihak berkuasa untuk terus ambil tindakan.Kes buli dan budaya 'raging' ni bukan perkara yang kecil.Kita tak mahu lagi kes seperti yang berlaku https://t.co/VqeNCmFHyL— Syed Saddiq (@SyedSaddiq) May 1, 2023 Youth President, Syed Saddiq bin Syed Abdul Rahman, has urged the authorities to take immediate action if the allegations are true.The authorities and TUDM have been made aware of the incident and are currently conducting their respective investigations.  Should the investigation confirm the allegations, appropriate disciplinary actions will be taken against the suspects involved.


Nightclubs Re-opening In Malaysia, But Dancing Is Not Allowed?

As revealed in the latest relaxed SOPs announcement, nightclubs will start to reopen 15th of May onwards after a long COVID-19 hiatus. However, there are still rules to be adhered to, in order to avoid future COVID-19 outbreaks.
According to David Gurupatham, the co-founder of the trade coalition Industries Unite as reported by Free Malaysia Today, "The likely SOPs are that there will be no dancing and perhaps a situation where we will have to implement crowd control to make sure it's not too crowded," he explained further by saying, "We don't want any sudden spikes which could lead to clubs being closed again." In short, the "no dancing, no-close contact" rule shall be implemented along with the reopening of nightclubs in Malaysia.  Nightclub owners are also encouraged to impose capacity limits, as prevention is always better than cure. What do you think about this?
