The fact that Malaysians are overworked and underpaid these days is very evident.Also, it can be very overwhelming to the point that it compromises your physical and emotional well-being. Although many people must work multiple jobs to make ends meet, they do not always have the luxury of maintaining a work-life balance.berakit-rakit ke hulu, berenang-renang ke tepian; bersakit-sakit dahulu, bersenang-senang kemudian ha dah tengok ke belum episod ni? #jomsembang on @youtube @spotify & @applepodcasts !#studiosembang pic.twitter.com/JFYHBKxEdE— Studio Sembang (@studiosembang) April 1, 2023 An episode of Jom Sembang, a podcast presented by well-known actress Amelia Henderson, featured Janna Nick as a guest speaker who discussed work-life balance.In a snippet posted on Twitter, Janna Nick was seen laughing before saying, "I have noticed that today's generation wants to have a work-life balance. I'm sorry but I only managed to afford that now at 28." Known as a singer, Janna used to work as a sales girl before she came out to the spotlight and became financially secure. She mentioned in the video if an individual has yet to secure their first goal in life, then might as well forget about that balance unless their parents are rich. After that statement, Amelia was seen nodding her head in agreement with regard to the topic. Anyone whos been through the rough patch of being overworked wont even laugh at themselves like that. Like whats so funny? Unless she did questionable hard work then id understand why she would laugh— Maia | (@jauresea) April 3, 2023 Since the video came out, netizens took offence to Janna's words saying that she was being rude and insensitive as many people out there are hustling few jobs and here she is underestimating people who are seeking to have a work-life balance. Janna tak gelakkan siapa2 yg nak achieve work life balance. shes laughing because only she knows how much WORK she had to put in to achieve her own work life balance. https://t.co/8xPYq5fGjN— (@ameliath) April 3, 2023 Amelia responded by noting that Janna wasn't making fun of anybody who wanted to reach that goal; rather, she was just laughing because only she knew how much effort it had taken for her to succeed and maintain a healthy work-life balance.kita semua ada opinions, ada orang yg tak kejar financial goals in life, thats totally ok!!! tapi episode ni pasal Janna, her life and her journey. i setuju dgn apa yg Janna cakap. I think there will be people out there who do as well.— (@ameliath) April 3, 2023 We all have our perspectives, she added, and this episode is about Janna's thoughts and her life's journey.Amelia concurs with Janna's remarks, but she cautions people not to take everything she says at face value because if they don't, no one is compelled to.As of now, Janna has yet to respond to the criticism thrown at her.

Yikes! Not Even Memes Can Save Morbius From Flopping Yet Again After Its Re-Release In Theatres

Give it up Sony, Morbius has tanked the box office...AGAIN. Or shall we say, morbed?Despite re-releasing the Jared Leto-led vampire movie in theatres for a second time, it's still a flop! For a start, you might wonder why Sony would put up such a fruitless attempt? Well according to the laughable Morbius-related memes circulating on social media, Sony thought they'd give a try in milking the trend. You know, in hopes of generating "good" publicity to apparently compensate the film's lack of success.

  Even worse, they even had Jared Leto getting in on the "joke", which obviously backfired. The fans however, aren't entirely amused by the facade.


Deaths Are About To Be 20% More Expensive In M'sia, Local Funeral Public Association Says

Even exiting the earth costs a fortune these days...The Malaysia Funeral Public Association predicts that by the end of August this year, funeral package rates may have increased by as much as 20%. The organization's head has ascribed the price increase to the skyrocketing cost of funeral supplies and religious objects, which has increased by a staggering 250%.
  To illustrate,  3-day-2-night funerary packages might increase from RM20,000 to RM24,000, while 2-day-1-night funerary packages could potentially rise from RM10,000 to a staggering RM12,000. That's a lot of money!Funeral organisers should practice more compassion in this caseSpeaking to Sin Chew Daily, Mr. Jiang Yu Hao, the association's chairman, asked funeral directors of all races and religions to be understanding of Malaysians' struggle in light of the present economic slowdown and to carefully evaluate how they should negotiate the right and reasonable prices.
 Jiang added that traditional Chinese funeral parlours are small and medium-sized companies that do not run on a commercial model, pointing out that many of the practises associated with Chinese funerals have been passed down from Mainland China. In order to avoid passing on the greater costs to customers by raising prices, they would often endeavour to bear as much of the cost as feasible.Inadequate manpower contributes to the issue as well
  Jiang also addressed the issue of the present labour shortage in the funeral industry and encouraged the government to take into account the challenges they have encountered when attempting to acquire foreign workers to fill critical positions. Due to the degrading stereotypes that are frequently attached to the profession,  it unfortunately discourages locals from entering the field.If funerals costs are reaching tens of thousands to pay for, and living is becoming too expensive, what are we to do?

#GoodyEats: New Boho-Themed Cafe in Penang With The Best Brunch Menu And Delicious Petit Fours

If you're looking for a brunch spot that also serves decadent petit fours that are full of flavours and has multiple OOTD spots for you to get a few snaps for the Gram, then you've got to visit Utoo Boho Cafe, located in Lebuh Victoria Penang. Since opening its doors in December 2021, its unique Bohemian interior decor has not failed to attract people like bees to a honeypot. It had wooden furniture, rattan decor items, feathery trinkets perfect for photos, and macrame wall hangings. You can choose to enjoy your food on the tables or opt for the floor seating section which is recommended for larger groups.

To be honest, the whole cafe is like a photo booth for those who love having photoshoots but if you're bombarded by all the cool photo spots and don't know which one to choose from, here are our favourite spots:#1 This cute little comfortable teepee
#2 Ukelele bench and macrame wall hangings
#3 The grand entrance
Now enough with the decorations, time to dive into the delicious food and desserts that Utoo Boho Cafe has to offer. While they have an extensive drink and dessert menu, please note that for meals, they mainly serve brunch meals perfect for small eaters or someone who is just looking to try some delicious desserts. Their brunch menu mainly consists of delicious meat, fish, prawn or eggs on a thick slice of bread. Here's what we tried:# Smoked duck poached eggTender and moist smoked duck with a perfectly cooked poached egg topped with hollandaise sauce, olive oil, parsley and pepper served on sourdough bread with a side of greens.
# Avochic Poached EggYour classic avocado toast with chicken ham, perfectly poached egg, buttery avocado, olive oil, parsley and pepper on a thick slice of sourdough bread with a side of greens.
# Norwegian BrunchThis item is a combination of smoked salmon, arugula topped with hollandaise sauce, olive oil and pepper on caraway rye bread and some avocado spread, feta cheese with olive, poppyseed, chilli flakes, pepper, lemon zest and olive oil on a slice of caraway rye bread.
After the flavourful brunch, we had a little more room in our tummies for some dessert and we just had to try their petit fours! Here's what we had:
# Blushing Strawberry MousseIn case you can tell which one we're talking about it's the pink one in the back that looks like a pink square cloud. This is a Korean-inspired dessert is a Strawberry mousse made with fresh strawberries paired perfectly with elderflower jelly and lime that literally melts in your mouth! # RubySadly for all you matcha lovers, every month, Utoo Boho Cafe has themed desserts and March was "So March Matcha" but March is over now so you won't be able to try Ruby but let's wait and see what's their April theme! Ruby, the one next to the Strawberry Mousse, is a combination of a pistachio base topped with a thick and creamy matcha ring with some raspberry jam in the middle. # Emerald GanacheThe Emerald Ganache is a real delight! It takes you on a texture and flavour journey with the crunchiness and nutty flavours of ground pistachio and the silky soft pistachio mousse and the pleasant sour and sweetness of raspberry jam. By this time we were pretty full but we needed something to quench our thirst, here's what we had:
From left to right, we ordered the Dalgona Macha topped with some crispy and crunchy dalgona cookies, the Fragaria, one of their signature drinks made with strawberries and soy milk and lastly the Dalgona Latte for the caffeine-addict in the friend group. The drinks were all rich in flavours and by the time we finish them, we were so full up we could not eat anymore! Overall we enjoyed the food and drinks at Utoo Boho Cafe and the ambience was certainly a huge plus! The desserts were OUT OF THIS WORLD and we would definitely recommend you to visit it! Utoo Boho CafeAddress: 156, Lebuh Victoria, George Town, 10300 George Town, Pulau PinangOperating Hours: 9am - 7pm daily, closed on MondaysFacebook | Instagram

Have you ever wonder if everyone celebrates Christmas the same? British vs Americans Christmas traditions

Do you think you know everything about Christmas? Well, guess again, here are 6 British vs Americans Christmas traditions which you might not even realize it until you read this.# Happy Christmas vs Merry ChristmasIf you’re living in the United Kingdom (UK), Happy Christmas is pretty much the standard greeting used around the Christmas season. On the other hand, in the United States (US), people often greet each other by saying Merry Christmas.  # Father Christmas vs Santa ClausIn the UK, people used to recognize the jolly giver of presents as “Father Christmas” whilst in the US, they would refer to him as “Santa Claus” or just simply “Santa.”# Chrimbo vs ChristmasAs you might start to get confuse with heart O/S: Wait, what? Chrimbo? What’s that? "Chrimbo" also sometimes spelled "Crimbo," is the shortening of Christmas known in the UK. While in the US, they did not create any other fancy name and just stick to Christmas.  # Lapland vs North PoleIf you ask the British where does Santa Clause lives and works? The answer would definitely be Lapland. It’s an area that includes the far northern parts of Finland, Norway, Sweden, and Russia. However, this is not true to the Americans. To them, Santa’s true home is the North Pole.# Turkey vs Roast BeefIn the UK, the main dish for traditional Christmas dinner is turkey with stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, cranberry sauce, and vegetables whereas in the US, people often prefer to have ham or roast beef on Christmas Day. For many Americans, turkeys are reserved to celebrate Thanksgiving.# Christmas Pudding vs Pumpkin PiesSo what about Christmas dessert? British will have Christmas pudding as dessert on Christmas Day. This is a dense cake flavored with dried fruit and spices. It’s then soaked in alcohol and set alight before serving. While for the Americans, they opt to have pumpkin pies or all other types of pie such as apple pie, pecan pie etc. for Christmas dessert. Cover Photo (LEFT: RIGHT)

There is an ocean of opinion out there when it comes to K-Dramas, and we live for the problematic ones many are afraid to talk about, for fear of being shunned. Fortunately, there are a handful who throw caution to the wind, and bring to light the few thoughts we secretly agree with. Rallying the top 13, here are some of the more hushed K-Drama opinions among netizens you just have to read!

Apple Music VS Spotify VS YouTube Music: Which is the best music streaming platform?

Comparing music streaming platforms like Apple Music, Spotify and YouTube Music isn’t unusual behaviour, trust me! All music plays a huge part in our lives, we need to have a good, reliable and user-friendly platform that will help us live our lives with a soundtrack constantly playing in the background. Today, a battle of the Music Streaming Platforms shall take place. They will be tested based on 5 categories and at the end, and you will have to vote for your favourite streaming platform after reading all the facts. Here’s a categorised comparison of each of these music streaming platforms: Category #1: Music Library
When it comes to music library, the winner is of course, YouTube Music. Even though Apple Music and Spotify Premium both have an extensive catalog, YouTube Music has a ton of mashups, fan-created covers, live videos, remixes, and more. All of these are labelled as unofficial music, which aren’t really available on the other two platforms. Category #2: Music Recommendations and DiscoveryIf you like getting music recommendations and also discovering new artists and new music, people everywhere will tell you that Spotify and Apple Music will definitely help you do that. In reality, all three music streaming platforms offer recommendations and discovery. The question is, who has the best recommendations?
  The answer: Apple Music. It is the quickest among the three to identify your music taste and replicate it in their suggestions for you. Did you know that most if their music are curated by teams of editors worldwide who are responsible for curating music, not AIs. Their recommendations like homegrown artists, highlight new artists and even the New Music Daily playlist are all done by this team.Category #3: App Experience
  When it comes to this category, I won’t even have to explain why (but I will) Spotify is the winner. Spotify has a very smooth app experience, making it very user-friendly. They must have hired a really good cognitive scientist to test out the app, because it gives users such a seamless experience. I’m not going to say that Apple Music’s app doesn’t give me a smooth experience but, there have been times when it glitched a little. However, I am going to give them credit because, there have been many updates as of recently making the app a little smoother la.We need to give YouTube Music a little time, it is still a baby so maybe we will see some improvement in the app experience department soon. Category #4: Audio QualityHonestly, this section only matters if you have some kind of high-tech earphones or listening devices. Spotify can stream up to 320 kbps via Spotify Premium's "Extreme" audio quality option, while both Apple Music and YouTube Music only go up to 256 kbps. You won’t notice the difference that much though, so does it really matter? Category #5: PricingBoth Spotify and YouTube Music have a free version however, you will be interrupted by ads every now and then which can be pretty annoying when you’re in the middle of a workout. If you want to pick the better free version, you and I both know it’s Spotify because YouTube Music will immediately stop playing when you lock your screen. Apple Music, on the other hand, does not offer a free version. Here are the prices for the single user and family plans for each platform: # Spotify Premium: Single User RM 15.90 | Family RM 23.80# Apple Music: Single User RM 14.90 | Family RM 22.90# YouTube Music: Single User RM 14.90 | Family RM 22.90Now, after reading all the facts, we want to hear what you have to say!

From Ugly Duckling to Beautiful Swan | Vietnam Girl Turns Into a Hottie After Being Called ‘Ugly’ by Her Crush

‘There were no ugly women, only lazy ones,’ says the bold statement of Helena Rubinstein. And after reading the inspiring story of this young Vietnam girl, we guess she is right.According to Vietnam’s media, Le Thanh Ngan has always been teased by her friends during high schools due to her looks that is said to resemble a fox. Things went worse when she plucked up her courage to confess her feelings to her crush but was cruelly rejected.“Who would want an ugly girl?” he allegedly told her that.
Fortunately, all the years of verbal abuse and the mean replies did not break her. This has, however, prompted Le to put more serious effort into her appearance. Thankfully, she managed to transform herself into a cute and charming girl, attractive to both boys and girls a few years later. We guess this is a real smack in the face for the boy that mocked her, isn’t it?Le said that she tried very hard to change, and during this period of time, she ignored all the teasing and laughing from others. She also learned to take good care of her skin and make-up herself. As she turns prettier day by day, she also becomes more confident. And that, according to Le, is the secret to becoming a real beauty.Her physical appearance has improved a lot. Then, she decided to remove the mole on her face. All her efforts yielded a positive result. Now, the once ugly duckling is nothing but a really beautiful swan. This can be proven through the pouring praises on her Instagram, saying that she’s pretty.“But frankly, I’ve never heard anyone said that before,” said the inspiring Hanoi girl.There, there. Sisters, are you still going to skip your skincare routine after this?

"No Kids Should Be Eating Beside Longkangs," School Canteen Must Be Open Despite Ramadhan, Urges Fadhlina Sidek

Even if there are fewer than 10% non-Muslim students at the school, education minister Fadhlina Sidek urged school canteen operators to remain open throughout Ramadan."There is no need to shut down the canteen because some of our Muslim pupils are not compelled to fast. I don't want to see children eating next to drains or in a storage room," she said at a press conference yesterday.
  Previously, Siti Normah Md Desa, secretary-general of PPKSM, the Ministry of Education (MoE) ought to let school administrations and canteen operators decide whether to open school canteens depending on the needs of the students.She explained that in order for the school canteens to remain open, the operators would need to bear the operational expenses that would probably exceed the revenue generated.What are your thoughts on this matter?

5 Signs That Prove Aries Is The Ultimate Badass Of All The Zodiacs.

How‘s Aries season treating you so far? If you feel unusually energetic and have the sudden urge to inflict chaos outta nowhere, we say you're doing exactly what is expected during the season of the fire sign. Frankly, no one does badassery quite like an Aries. Here's 5 reason they're an ultimate badass: 1. Their Passion Burns Brighter Than Anything You've SeenIf there's anything an Aries is best known for, it's their passion. Born under the ruling planet of Mars, it's as if the word "passion" is invented solely for this particular fire sign. 2. Their Assertiveness Can Be Spotted From Miles AwayArguably the most confident out of all zodiacs, Aries is the ultimate badass when it comes to getting sh*t done. A natural-born leader, Aries picks up leadership quite naturally, and they're always ready to take charge come rain or hellwater.
source: WhatToLaugh3. Rebellion Is Pretty Much In Their DNAThat weird kid back in kindergarten who always refused to color inside the lines? Or that one black sheep relative who defied everyone's expectations and chose to live to the beat of their own drums? They are most likely an Aries. Try telling Aries what to do and watch them do the exact opposite.
source: 17QQ4. You Can Always Count On Them For Brutally Honest OpinionsIf you can't handle the truth, Aries is not someone you should go to for advice. Sugarcoating is not exactly a forte of theirs, and while they may come across as harsh, that's simply their way of showing they care enough about you to be completely honest.
source: 17QQ5. They're So Competitive, It's Scary Their competitive nature is what drives their very existence, and sometimes it can be overwhelming. But, that's what makes them iconic. Anything that you could do, Aries could probably do better.

You MUST WATCH This Incredibly Detailed Stop-Motion Footage from "Pinocchio"

ICYMI: Netflix Drops The Trailer For Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio & Its Soulfully Beautiful!Disneys live-action Pinocchio wasn't met with the best reviews, and now Guillermo del Toro is coming up to bat with his take on the boy puppet. Thanks to Netflix's TUDUM 2022, we have a behind-the-scenes look at the making of del Toro's stop-motion take."Pinocchio is a tale that has lived through the centuries; a fable very close to my heart," says del Toro. "We are very sure that this incarnation is a particularly beautiful one."While the Disney adaptations have tried their best to emulate the original animations, del Toro promises to have a completely different take with this version, giving the story new elements like Geppetto actually grieving the loss of his son, and Pinocchio being wanted for the Italian military.Del Toro even suggests that the story could have different implications when it comes to what is a 'real boy,' so I'm eager to see that artsy take on the tale, especially since it's the Disney version of the story that he been so prevalent over the years.  Academy Award®-winning filmmaker Guillermo del Toro reinvents the classic tale of the wooden marionette who is magically brought to life in order to mend the heart of a grieving woodcarver named Geppetto. This whimsical, stop-motion film directed by Guillermo del Toro and Mark Gustafson follows the mischievous and disobedient adventures of Pinocchio in his pursuit of a place in the world.Guillermo del Toros Pinocchio comes to Netflix this December.

Mom's Loan Default: Trio Snatches Car in Daring Daylight Robbery

A video of an Axia driver being forcibly dragged out of his car on the street and speeding through a red light has gone viral. Following a police investigation, it was revealed that the reason for the robbery was due to the driver's mother's failure to repay a loan of RM100,000, which led to three men seizing her son's car at the traffic lights of Jalan Bagan Lalang yesterday.In the incident that occurred at 7:45 am, the man involved was said to have stopped at the said traffic lights when suddenly approached by three men, two of whom fled with the Perodua Axia car he was driving.The Chief of North Seberang Perai District Police, Mohd Asri Shafie, stated that acting on a report, they apprehended three local men aged between 27 and 49.He explained that the arrests were made in the vicinity of Seberang Jaya, Butterworth, and Kuala Kangsar, Perak."Based on investigations, it was found that the 57-year-old mother of the victim had borrowed RM100,000 from a man in 2020 and agreed to surrender her son's car if she failed to repay the loan."Since the mother failed to repay the loan, the man hired three other men to seize the car as agreed upon by the woman in a contract."Investigations into this case are still ongoing, and the case is being investigated under Section 395 of the Penal Code," he said in a statement today.Watch the video here:Video 1Video 2

Caught The Travel Bug? 5 More Countries Have Dropped COVID-19 Restrictions

We've come a long way since the whole world suddenly shut down in 2020. And with the world having started to open up last year, we've all had to remain on top of things to know where we can travel to with or without a vaccine and fill out mountains of paperwork and other nitty gritty details.Thankfully now a slew of countries have removed all coronavirus-related travel restrictions, allowing overseas travellers to enter without a vaccination, negative test, recent recovery, or travel form. If you're looking for your next travel getaway, here's a roundup of amazing destinations around our region that have recently eased their travel rules.1. New Zealand
  The gradual easing of entry restrictions into New Zealand since February 2022 is now complete, with the country's borders officially open to visitors from all across the world since 1 August. New Zealand has opened its doors to students and anyone who needs visas too. Even though theres no need to quarantine, most visitors to New Zealand must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and take two tests after arrival.2. Thailand
  As of 1 July 2022, more travel restrictions to Thailand were lifted. Travellers no longer require the Thailand Pass or USD10,000 in medical insurance to enter Thailand. Along with the removal of the mask requirement, travellers are no longer needed to present negative RT-PCR results at the airport either. Even landing cards have now been scrapped!However, passengers will still need to present documentation of a complete vaccination record or a negative PCR test result within the previous 72 hours. Unvaccinated travellers without a COVID-19 test must pay for and take one upon arrival, according to the Tourism Authority of Thailand.3. Malaysia
  Effective 1 August, Malaysias Ministry of Health (MOH) no longer requires tourists to complete the MySejahtera Travellers Card. The Ministry of Health explained that this easing of entry requirements is due to an assessment that the country's healthcare system is currently at a good and manageable level.In the event that a thermal scanner or self-testing indicates that a traveller is sick upon arrival at the International Entry Points (PMA), they will then be directed to the health department for further evaluation. If they have an infectious disease such as COVID-19, monkeypox, MERS-CoV, or others, they will be referred to a nearby health centre for treatment.4. Australia
  As of 6 July, visitors are no longer required to present a vaccination record or submit a digital passenger declaration in order to enter the country. In April, the inbound traveller COVID-19 testing requirements were lifted too. Aside from that, those with valid visas but no vaccination records are also free to enter the country.On flights to Australia, face masks will be required. Airlines, such as Virgin Australia and Qantas, will need customers to present their vaccination proof in order to fly overseas.Other Covid-19 restrictions differ by region. The Australian Department of Health's website provides travel updates.5. France
  From 1 August, all travellers will be allowed to enter France without needing to follow COVID-19 entry requirements. According to the local Ministry, all travellers, regardless of their country of origin, will no longer be required to present a vaccination, recovery, or test certificate upon their arrival.


Malaysian Employers Are The Stingiest When It Comes To Salary, According To KDNK Statistics

Employers in Malaysia are among the most stingy people in all of Southeast Asia in terms of their employees' salaries when they only spend 25% of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) on salaries, reported the local newspaper Utusan Malaysia.Compared to our regional neighbours, Malaysia contributes only 25% of GDP in terms of their employees' salaries, compared to Singapore at 40%, Indonesia at 84%, and 76% in the Philippines.
  These figures contribute to the population sizes of the countries mentioned above-with Malaysia having 33 million people, Singapore having 5.6 million, Indonesia 273 million, and the Philippines 109 million people.Malaysian Trades Union Congress (MTUC) president Datuk Abdul Halim Mansor considers such low payments from employers in the country unreasonable because companies in Malaysia have the ability to pay employees higher than the minimum wage of RM1,2000.
  "They often say now is not the right time to raise the minimum wage to RM1,500 because of economic difficulties and Covid-19. This reason has become the standard, while the government has prioritized various types of assistance worth billions of ringgit."Employers should give society purchasing power, not give society the power to owe. Paying low wages opens up space for debt, and employees are forced to waste time working overtime.
  "Imagine, Malaysian employers only spend 25% of GDP to pay the salaries of their employees, Malaysia has become the most stingy country in Southeast Asia," he told Utusan Malaysia.If you dare, tag your employer in the comments section! Just kidding, don't do that!

This move marks a significant step towards a more open payment system, offering alternative methods to the existing Touch 'n Go and RFID options.According to a report by Bernama, Works Minister Datuk Seri Alexander Nanta Linggi unveiled the list of participating highways, which includes well-known routes such as Ampang-Kuala Lumpur Elevated Highway (AKLEH), Guthrie Corridor Expressway (GCE), Sungai Besi Expressway (BESRAYA), New Pantai Expressway (NPE), and many more.
  Minister Nanta emphasized that this open payment system aligns with the government's ongoing efforts to transition towards the multi-lane fast flow (MLFF) toll collection system, which is expected to be fully implemented by the end of 2024. MLFF aims to improve traffic flow by removing boom gates at toll plazas, enabling smoother and more efficient travel.The MLFF system is currently undergoing testing on the SUKE expressway, with all toll plazas along the highway already equipped with this advanced technology. Previously, Pay with Debit had hinted at the implementation of an open payment system on Malaysian highways and public transport, generating anticipation among commuters.Here's the full list of the participating highways:-+ Ampang-Kuala Lumpur Elevated Highway (AKLEH) -+ Guthrie Corridor Expressway (GCE)-+ Sungai Besi Expressway (BESRAYA)-+ New Pantai Expressway (NPE) -+ Penang Bridge (JPP)-+ Butterworth-Kulim Expressway (BKE)-+ Damansara-Puchong Expressway (LDP) -+ Western Kuala Lumpur Traffic Dispersal Scheme (SPRINT) -+ Shah Alam Expressway (KESAS)-+ SMART Tunnel-+ Kuala Lumpur-Putrajaya Expressway (MEX)-+ Duta-Ulu Klang Expressway (DUKE)With the introduction of credit and debit card payments on select highways, road users can expect increased convenience and efficiency in their journeys. As September approaches, Malaysians can look forward to a more seamless toll payment experience, bringing greater ease and flexibility to their daily travels.What do you think of this new development?

Sorry Much? TGV Cinemas Launches VIP Promo Following Screening Fiasco Allegations

Technical glitch or VIP? One thing's for sure, movie goers aren't buying TGV Cinemas' recent fiasco.On Mar. 5, the TGV outlet at Vivacity Megamall (Kuching) experienced an abrupt screening delay of The Batman, whereby the movie was forced to RESTART halfway through.
  The issue obviously angered moviegoers, who had to endure the blockbuster's additional 45 minutes rerun, on top of the almost 3 hour running time. According to a moviegoer's juicy details on his Facebook page, he claimed that the fiasco was due to 'latecomers'.
  Following Fazillah's sharing, TGV was subjected to netizens' spewing accusations, with many pointing the finger towards 'VVIP treatment'.
  The cinema chain has since countered the so-called VIP allegations by clarifying that it was in fact caused by a technical glitch. To appease customers from boycotting, TGV has even launched a V-V-VIP Day promo as an act of damage control, with hashtags alluding to the said fiasco.

Which one are you? The 4 types of drunk people that you will meet at a party!

Chinese New Year is always a festive season for people having gatherings and throwing parties. As an adult, we no longer throw a party with Coca-cola and Sprite, right? (haha)People tend to have alcoholic drinks at their parties, and hey, we understand, having a beer will surely spice up the party! At every party, there will always be a person who accidentally drinks too much and ends up drunk. So here is a list of the 4 types of drunk people that you will surely see at a party.  1. Happy Drunk  Happy Drunk is, in fact, a fun kind of drunk that you want to be with at a party. They are always laughing, enjoying the party and spreading positive vibes to everyone. They are literally the life of the party. Here’s a tip to hang out with them and enjoy to the fullest: Be drunk like them cause staying sober will only decrease the level of fun!2. Sad Drunk  Opposite to the Happy Drunk, Sad Drunk is considered the worst kind of drunk. They will whine, cry and scream. Yes, they will be transforming into a giant baby. Most of the Sad Drunks seem pretty normal when they are sober. Who knows a little alcohol would change them into a waterfall full of tears? So the best way of handling Sad Drunk would be to transform into a mother, comfort them, hear them out and basically, take care of them like how you took care of a baby. If you’re not that close to the Sad Drunk, get as far as you can from them!3. Philosophical Drunk  Philosophical Drunk can be fun to be with at a party if the party is held in a library. (haha) Philosophical Drunk is basically your lecturer that drinks too much. They will talk to you about love, life, death, universe and more. They will have all sorts of deep conversations with you. But it could be fun to talk to them, and hey, you might gain some life advice from them too! Isn’t that a win-win situation? If you have all the patience and interest in the world, I would suggest you keep hanging with them; if not, you can always ask a confusing question, leave them hanging and run as fast as you can while they are thinking.4. DJ Drunk  DJ Drunk is the best to have at a party, especially parties that have an actual deejay. They will turn into a dance machine, and believe me, no matter what their dance moves are, they always dance like they own the dance floor. With that kind of confidence, they are definitely the star of the party! So I’d advise you to drink up, join in the dance floor and dance your problems away.    Although drinking can be fun, you party people should also take into consideration about the downsides of drinking too. So drink responsibly and stay out of trouble!

Dong-hyuk called the scene a "small gift" for the millions of fans awaiting the show's highly anticipated second season, which Netflix confirmed in June with a tweet reading "Red light... GREENLIGHT!" There's no word yet on a start date.  Squid Game made Emmys history when it became the first non-English-language show to win top Primetime Emmys. The show picked up two awards: Lee Jung-jae won a statue for lead actor in a drama series, and Dong-hyuk won for outstanding direction of a drama.

This Unfortunate Man Loses Half A Year's Savings In 5 Hours Thanks To His Girlfriend's Shopping Spree

In a surprising turn of events, a 26-year-old man recently shared his eye-opening experience of dating in a post on an anonymous forum.Little did he know that being in a relationship could be so financially draining. Within a mere 5 hours, his girlfriend managed to spend his entire half-year's savings, leaving him dumbfounded.The man's story unfolded as he delved into the details of his encounter. He recounted how he stumbled upon an advertisement on Paktor, a popular dating app, which eventually led him to meet his now-girlfriend. Full of excitement and anticipation, he soon realized that dating could be an expensive venture, particularly when it comes to his significant other's spending habits.According to his post, his girlfriend's insatiable appetite for shopping was unleashed during their outing. The spending spree began innocently enough with a visit to a department store. In a matter of minutes, she had splurged almost NT$20,000 (approximately RM3k) on skincare and beauty products, leaving him astonished at her swift decision-making skills.The shopping extravaganza did not end there. She continued to indulge herself by purchasing two bottles of perfume and a bag brimming with cosmetics. As they ventured to the upper floors, she couldn't resist adding four dresses and a long-sleeved blouse to her growing collection.Their shopping escapade took them to Muji, where she loaded up on cooking ingredients, snacks, and stationery. The man's hands were filled to the brim with her purchases, and just when he thought they were done, hunger struck. They decided to dine at Din Tai Fung, but the waiting time allowed her to wander off and, unsurprisingly, return with a new pair of flats and high-heeled sandals.It was not until they finished their meal, fatigue weighing heavily on the man, that he realized the true extent of his girlfriend's spending spree. And just like that, she had managed to rack up charges amounting to over NT$70,000 (approximately RM10k) on his credit card.The financial blow hit him hard. As someone who diligently saved a significant portion of his monthly salary of around NT$50,000 (approximately RM7k), he never anticipated such an extravagant drain on his finances. The realization that being in a relationship could take such a toll left him dumbfounded.His post struck a chord with netizens who empathized with his plight. Commenters flooded the forum, advising him to reconsider his role as an ATM and urging him to prioritize his own financial well-being."Are you sure she's your girlfriend? Isn't she just using you as an ATM or a tool?""Why don't you run away? She clearly sees you as an ATM. A woman who loves you would save money for you.""Please wake up! You're not a boyfriend or a future husband, you're just an accessory, a human ATM.""NT$70,000 (approximately RM10k) is just the beginning; there will be even bigger amounts to come."While dating expenses can often be expected, it is crucial for individuals to find a balance that aligns with their financial goals. This serves as a reminder that open communication and financial compatibility are essential elements in any successful relationship.
