Despite the circumstances, we're looking forward to a festive and auspicious Chinese New Year :D

Although we may not be able to celebrate like we used to, we can still celebrate CNY in spirit, as this ox-picious occasion is a time for togetherness, even though we are apart.That's why Master Community Developer Sunway Property has come up with three pillars, which make up the Treasures of Togetherness, to remind everyone what makes the Lunar New Year so special in the first place.

These pillars are based on the three elements that we must treasure during this festive season: 1. Eat - 同福同享 (pinyin: tóng fú tóng xiǎng) - Sharing prosperity together 2. Play - 同欢同心 (pinyin: tóng huān tóngxīn) - Sharing fun together 3. Live- 同睦同聚 (pinyin: tóng mù tóng jù) - Sharing joyful memories together Eat, play, and live are aspects of CNY that cannot be changed, even if we're celebrating it apart this year. As long as everyone plays a part in keeping the tradition alive, there is no reason as to why we can't share the treasures of happiness, prosperity, and joyful memories with our loved ones :)

Smartphones Banned From Polling Stations To Deter Corruption During #GE15

You will not be able to bring your smartphone with you when entering polling stations to cast your vote for the 15th General Election (GE15)

The news follows a new infographic released by the Election Commission (EC) on its social media platforms, which outlines 10 key steps you will need to take during the voting process on election day, November 19.The sixth step details how voters will now be required to surrender their smartphones to the presiding officer, before heading to the voting booth to select their candidate of choice.After voters place their vote in the ballot box, they will then be expected to return to the desk of the officer on duty to collect their smartphones before leaving the polling centre.

Image via @sprgovmy (Twitter)

News of this comes after former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad called on the EC to ban smartphones in polling stations for GE15 in order to deter corruption

According to him, there was a flaw in the existing voting system wherein political parties could potentially pay voters to cast their ballots for them, provided they were given photographic proof. These voters could then use their smartphones to take pictures of their ballot papers as evidence of who they voted for.

4. Umpamanya telefon bimbit boleh menidakkan rahsia pengundi. Parti boleh guna maklumat untuk sogokan.5. Pengundi boleh tunjuk melalui telefon bahawa dia sudah undi parti tertentu dan parti pun hulur wang.— Dr Mahathir Mohamad (@chedetofficial) October 20, 2022

Mahathir has since thanked the EC for heeding his advice to prohibit smartphones in voting booths

Saya ucap terima kasih kepada SPR kerana terima cadangan larang bawa telefon bimbit semasa mengundi. Ini satu cara elak parti menyogok selepas buang undi dan pertahan prinsip undi adalah rahsia.https://t.co/HXklgzNCOr https://t.co/3PJlBI46su pic.twitter.com/3AorqFOQ2G— Dr Mahathir Mohamad (@chedetofficial) November 10, 2022

All 13 Trapped In The Cave Have Been Safely Rescued In Thailand's "Mission Impossible"

Yesterday, 10 July, the remaining five trapped in the Tham Luang cave in Chiang Rai since 23 June were successfully rescued, marking the end of a three-day long operation

Image via Twitter

"We don't know if this is a miracle, science, or what. All 13 'Wild Boars' are now out of the cave," wrote the Thai Navy SEALS in a statement posted on Facebook, adding that, "All are safe.""Today Thai people, team Thailand, achieved mission impossible," said Mission chief and Chiang Rai governor Narongsak Osottanakorn on Tuesday evening, The Guardian reported.

Image via Facebook

According to Free Malaysia Today, the last five of the group were brought out of the cave on stretchers over the course of the day and taken to the hospital via helicopter. They had been trapped in the cave for 18 days.

A rescue operation was officially launched on Sunday, 8 July. By its second day, eight of the boys had been rescued.

"No kid has cave dived like this before," said diver Ivan Karadzic, who was stationed near a notoriously difficult stretch of the cave about half-way along, The BBC reported."Incredibly strong kids. Unbelievable, almost," he added.

According to News.com.au, a health official revealed during a press conference at the Chiang Rai Prachanukroh Hospital that the first eight rescued boys were suffering from fevers, mild coughs, and low heart rates. At least two may have contracted a lung infection known as "cave disease."The boys are being quarantined from their parents to avoid a risk of infection and will likely be kept in hospital for a week to undergo tests, Channel NewsAsia reported."They're hungry a lot and want to eat a variety of food, but at this stage we're giving food that is easily digested and bland," said Dr Jesada Chokedamrongsuk, adding that, "They asked for bread with chocolate, which we think is okay."

Osottanakorn described the search and rescue effort as a "United Nations team"

The personnel and volunteers consisted of individuals from the UK, China, Myanmar, Laos, Australia, the United States, and Japan, The BBC reported.

According to CNN, 19 divers assisted in the final rescue operation yesterday.

Netizens from all over the world took to social media to celebrate the good news and thank those involved for their contributions

Many also paid tribute to Thai navy diver Petty Officer Saman Gunan, who died on 5 July after losing consciousness on his way out of the Tham Luang cave.

Sebenarnya, sehingga kini, pengumpul koleksi matawang lama masih ada dan dilihat kian bertambah bilangan mereka berikutan hobi ini dikatakan memberi kepuasan

Memetik laporan RinggitPlus, apabila Bank Negara menerbitkan wang kertas ini pada tahun 1996, tema reka bentuknya adalah untuk memperingati dan mencerminkan "Wawasan 2020".Walaupun wang kertas RM2 ini masih sah untuk digunakan, namun ia selalunya dijadikan collection berbanding menggunakannya untuk aktiviti jual beli harian.Sesetengah collector, wang kertas RM2 dengan tandatangan Gabenor Tan Sri Dato 'Ahmad Bin Mohd Don boleh mencapai nilai RM4,000 sehelai.

Rakyat Malaysia Kongsi Pengalaman & Suasana Berpuasa Di Hong Kong Ketika Pandemik Covid-19

Artikel ini disumbangkan oleh Hong Kong Tourism Board.Follow kami di Telegram, jadi antara yang terawal untuk dapatkan berita dan artikel-artikel menarik di SAYS Seismik.

Sama seperti umat Islam di seluruh dunia, 300,000 umat Islam di Hong Kong turut menjalankan ibadah di bulan Ramadan

Sebagai sebuah bandar yang menghargai kepelbagaian, Hong Kong menyediakan banyak pilihan tempat makan dan kedai halal untuk umat Islam dan pelancong tempatan. Bandar pulau ini juga mempunyai empat masjid besar iaitu Masjid Kowloon, Masjid Al Ammar, Masjid Jamie dan Masjid Chai Wan; dan tempat ibadat yang lebih kecil.

Amalan biasa bagi masyarakat Islam pada bulan Ramadan termasuk berkumpul untuk solat Ramadan khusus di masjid, berbuka puasa bersama di masjid di mana para jemaah akan membawa makanan dan barang keperluan untuk dikongsi dalam kalangan masyarakat.

Ramadan tahun lepas dan tahun ini amat berbeza sekali daripada tahun-tahun sebelumnya

Menurut Muhammad Arshad, Ketua Imam di Hong Kong, suasana Ramadan di Hong Kong telah berubah sejak pandemik melanda tahun lalu. Masjid telah ditutup selama kira-kira separuh daripada Ramadan pada tahun lepas. Disebabkan oleh langkah-langkah keselamatan dan kesihatan, jemaah dikehendaki menjaga penjarakan sosial dan memakai pelitup muka semasa solat di masjid.

Ketua Imam Muhammad Arshad di Masjid Kowloon.

“Malah, Ramadan tahun lepas dan tahun ini amat berbeza sekali daripada tahun-tahun sebelumnya. "Walaupun kami masih mengerjakan solat Tarawih, langkah-langkah penjarakan sosial dan keselamatan dilaksanakan, kami tidak menganjurkan perhimpunan bersama untuk berbuka puasa, tidak seperti tahun-tahun sebelumnya di mana para jemaah akan membawa makanan dan minuman untuk dikongsi dengan masyarakat."Sebelum pendemik melanda, terdapat perhimpunan setiap malam seramai kira-kira 1,500 hingga 2,000 orang di Masjid Kowloon sahaja, tapi kini kami hanya solat dengan kakitangan masjid sahaja,” katanya.

Pandemik ini juga telah memberi kesan kepada kedai makanan halal di Hong Kong

Encik Ma, pemilik Restoran Ma, restoran Cina halal yang popular di Hong Kong.
Image via Hong Kong Tourism Board

Restoran Ma adalah restoran Cina halal yang popular dalam kalangan umat Islam; bagi kedua-dua penduduk tempatan dan pelancong. Daripada mi daging lembu Shanghai dan sup pedas hingga kepada stew daging anak lembu dan pelbagai pilihan dim sum, pelanggan Ma disajikan dengan menu Cina halal yang pelbagai.Sebelum berlakunya pandemik, pelanggan perlu membuat pesanan makanan terlebih dahulu apabila mereka pergi ke restoran Ma untuk iftar. “Disebabkan oleh sekatan perjalanan dan masalah kesihatan sekarang, trafik menjadi perlahan dan kebanyakan orang berasa lebih selamat untuk makan di rumah. "Kami mula memberi lebih tumpuan kepada penghantaran melalui pihak ketiga dan pengambilan sendiri kerana pelanggan kami berasa lebih selesa menikmati makanan mereka di tempat persendirian,” kata Encik Ma, pemilik Restoran Ma.

Dalam tempoh 10 tahun yang lalu, ketersediaan makanan dan bahan halal telah meningkat dengan ketara

Sementara itu, peminat restoran Ma di Sham Shui Po, Anisha Parvin dari Malaysia baru-baru ini pula memesan dim sum dari Restoran Ma untuk berbuka puasa bersama suami dan kedua anaknya.Sejak berpindah ke Hong Kong 12 tahun yang lalu apabila dia mengahwini suaminya, seorang warganegara Hong Kong, Anisha telah beberapa kali menyambut Ramadan di Hong Kong, kerana dia tidak dapat pulang ke Malaysia setiap tahun.Mengenang kembali masa lalu, Anisha teringat bahawa sebelum pandemik melanda, masjid Kowloon di Tsim Sha Tsui memberikan makanan percuma pada bulan Ramadan; mereka menyediakan bubur panas, samosa dan jus pada waktu berbuka. Ia akan menjadi sangat sesak, dan orang ramai pergi lebih awal untuk mengambil makanan mereka.“Kadang-kadang, kami pergi ke Masjid al Amar di Wan Chai untuk berbuka puasa. Semasa bulan Ramadan, selama 30 hari mereka menawarkan makanan percuma kepada semua umat Islam untuk berbuka puasa,” katanya ketika mengimbas kembali.Selain dari dimsum dari Restoran Ma, Anisha juga sering mengunjungi Pusat Kantin Islam di Masjid al Amar untuk memakan dim sum sebelum berlakunya pandemik. Kini, Anisha dan keluarganya biasanya berbuka puasa di rumah.“Dalam tempoh 10 tahun yang lalu, ketersediaan makanan dan bahan halal telah meningkat dengan ketara. Sekarang, kami boleh mendapatkan banyak barangan halal dari Malaysia atau Indonesia, jadi kami boleh memasak semuanya dengan mudah di rumah,”Anisha dan keluarganya biasanya mendapatkan ayam dan daging merah halal mereka di pasar Tsim Sha Tsui, dan ikan serta sayur-sayuran mereka dari pasar Tseung Kwan O atau pasar Sheung Tak.

Harga yang sangat berpatutan untuk dim sum di Pusat Kantin Islam di Wan Chai

Sementara itu, seorang lagi rakyat Malaysia, Muzzil Qayyum Khairat berkongsi bahawa dia sering mengunjungi kedai makanan dan minuman halal di seluruh Hong Kong apabila beliau berpindah ke Hong Kong untuk bekerja pada tahun 2019. Terdapat beberapa tempat makan halal di seluruh Hong Kong tetapi makanan Cina halal yang terkenal (berbanding dengan makanan halal Turki atau Asia Selatan) adalah makanan Islam di Bandar Kowloon dan Pusat Kantin Islam di Wan Chai. “Saya pernah membawa seorang rakan bukan Islam untuk makan di kantin di Wan Chai dan beliau berkata ia antara dim sum yang terbaik di bandar, apatah lagi dengan harga yang sangat berpatutan untuk dim sum,” katanya ketika mengimbas kembali.Sebagai seorang yang aktif dan mementingkan kesihatan, Muzzil biasanya memasak makanan sendiri. “Saya mendapatkan daging halal dari kedai runcit halal di Cheung Sha Wan atau Sham Shui Po yang sering saya kunjungi sejak tahun 2019,” kata Muzzil.

Rindukan suasana menyambut Ramadan dan Raya bersama keluarga di tanah air

Muzzil di Masjid Kowloon.

Walaupun bahan makanan dan restoran halal senang dijumpai di seluruh Hong Kong, Anisha and Muzzil masih merindui Malaysia kerana Ramadan dan Raya adalah sambutan sekeluarga dan kedua-dua keluarga mereka masih berada di Malaysia. Pandemik atau tidak, oleh kerana mereka berada jauh dari rumah, kedua-dua Anisha dan Muzzil berkongsi bahawa mereka sering berpanggilan video dengan keluarga mereka di Malaysia sepanjang bulan Ramadan, dan pada hari Raya pertama.Anisha, bersama keluarganya di Hong Kong, biasanya pergi ke Masjid Kowloon untuk solat Raya mereka."Dahulu terdapat tiga sesi solat disebabkan oleh orang yang ramai. Semua umat Islam di Hong Kong akan berada di sini, jadi anda boleh bayangkan orang yang ramai dan semua orang memakai pakaian baharu serta meraikannya di bawah satu bumbung. Saya sangat menikmatinya.” kongsinya.

Ketua Imam Muhamad Arshad.

Walaupun amalan tertentu telah berubah, Ketua Imam Arshad berkongsi bahawa Ramadan adalah bulan yang menuntut umat Islam untuk bersatu melangkaui agama, tetapi dengan umat manusia secara keseluruhan. “Cabaran yang datang dengan pandemik ini telah menyatukan kita semua bersama untuk mempertahankan diri tanpa mengira warna kulit, kepercayaan dan negara. "Ramadan mengajar kita disiplin, kebertanggungjawapan diri dan menjaga orang lain, jadi tidak ada masa yang lebih baik untuk mempraktikkannya daripada bulan suci ini," katanya.

[VIDEO] Lelaki Kongsi Kedudukan Traffic Light Menghala Ke Bawah Ini Bikin Tawa Ramai

Follow kami di Telegram, Instagram dan TikTok SAYS Seismik, jadi antara yang terawal untuk dapatkan berita serta artikel-artikel menarik.

Semua orang sedia maklum, lampu isyarat berfungsi untuk memberi isyarat kepada pengguna jalan raya

Sistem lampu isyarat ini adalah sebagai pemberi isyarat kepada pemandu yang ditempatkan khusus di persimpangan jalan, lintasan penjalan kaki atau tempat yang menunjukkan pergerakan khusus bagi setiap pengguna jalan raya dengan masa yang ditetapkan.Lain pula dengan sebuah video yang tular di laman sosial TikTok baru-baru ini, apabila seorang lelaki menunjukkan kedudukan lampu isyarat yang menghala ke bawah telah menarik perhatian ramai.Lihat video penuh itu di bawah:

  @afiqazuwan Talaaa Kot Bawah Sapa Nak Tengokkk ‼  #fyp#fyp#fypviral ##foryoupage##TiktokGuru#BoyotTerpalingElok#BoyotPalingElok#BoyotUnboxingLagi  Sneaky Puppy (Funny, Comical, Awkward) - DanielDay

Siap jenguk kepala sebab tak nampak warna lampu isyarat

Menerusi video yang di muat naik oleh @afiqazuwan, kelihatan dia berada di simpang jalan di Sungai Petani, Kedah.Apa yang menarik perhatiannya adalah, apabila dia melihat kedudukan lampu isyarat yang dipasang menghala ke bawah itu membuatkan dia berasa pelik. Sepatutnya lampu isyarat itu kedudukannya harus menghala ke depan bagi memudahkan pengguna nampak isyarat warna yang diberikan.

Malaysia Can Still Hit Its Revenue Requirement Without GST, Says Zeti

In a statement yesterday, 14 May, former governor of Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) Tan Sri Zeti Akhtar Aziz said that Malaysia can safely hit its revenue requirement despite shelving the Goods and Services Tax (GST)

Image via The Malay Mail

Zeti, who is part of Tun Dr Mahathir's Council Of Elders, said this is possible if the newly-formed government prioritises on new projects, cut down on wastages, explore new forms of revenues, and increase public sector efficiency.Pakatan Harapan has pledged in its manifesto that it will be abolishing the controversial tax.

Bernama also reported Zeti as saying that the 100-day timeframe is adequate to implement effective changes and implementations that will help the country's economy

Image via Bernama

"I think that is what the markets want too. They want to see the commitment and the clarity in what is going to be done (by the government)," she told the news agency.

Zeti then cited previous situations during Tun Mahathir's tenure as Prime Minister in 1990s, when the government shifted its focus on completing mega projects

"During that time we advised him to reprioritise the mega projects and stagger their implementation into the future."Within two years, the current account deficit of the balance of payments improved to 4.6% of GDP against more than 10% previously. We have done it before and we will do it again," she added.

The former banker's statement echoed Tun Dr Mahathir's sentiment. The newly-minted Prime Minister has assured the public that the government has enough wealth to abolish GST:

                Mahathir Is Confident That Malaysia Has Enough Revenue To Abolish GST

"Funds were misused."

Kucing Kena Sawan, Tapi Ada Yang Buat Lawak Kena Ruqyah Ini Jadi Perbualan Netizen

Follow kami di Telegram, Instagram dan TikTok SAYS Seismik, jadi antara yang terawal untuk dapatkan berita serta artikel-artikel menarik.

Haiwan peliharaan seperti kucing sudah menjadi haiwan kegemaran orang ramai untuk pelihara

Ia disebabkan kucing merupakan haiwan jinak yang senang dijaga. Kucing juga sangat manja dan comel. Memang akan menyerikan lagi kehidupan tuannya. Baru-baru ini, tular sebuah video yang memaparkan kucing terkena sawan telah mencuri tumpuan. Lihat video penuh itu di bawah:

Bodoh masing2, dah tgk kucing kena sawan siap buat lawak. Yang patut kena ruqkiah tu ko la babi bukan kucing tu. Sakit otak betul pic.twitter.com/BiLyoyWeeF— MALAYSIA MOST VIRAL (@MALAYSIAVIRALLL) June 18, 2023

Kucing kena sawan, sekumpulan pemuda pula selamba gelakkan

Menerusi video berkenaan, kelihatan rakaman menunjukkan seekor kucing bersama sekumpulan pemuda sedang berada di ruang tamu. Apa yang lebih mengejutkan adalah apabila kucing itu terkena sawan tiba-tiba, namun orang di sekeliling tidak memberikan bantuan malah ada yang membuat lawak seperti "kena ruqyahkan kot". Berikutan dengan itu, pekara tersebut menimbulkan kemarahan orang ramai.

Image via @MALAYSIAVIRALLL (Twitter)

Difahamkan, kucing sawan ada caranya untuk ditenangkan. Yang pertama, anda jangan panik. Seterusnya, anda perlukan tuala untuk pegang kucing supaya tidak dicakar. Pastikan pegang bahagian badan kucing tapi jangan letak tekanan. Pegang badan sehingga sawannya selesai kerana takut ia akan mencederakan badan kucing. Jangan letak jari dekat dengan mulut kucing kerana takut kena gigit. Jangan lupa panggil mereka dengan lembut supaya dia tahu tuannya sentiasa berada di sisinya.

"Ya Allah, tak nak carut tapi memang tak guna la korang ni, sedih la. Korang ni kenapa jahat sangat?" - Netizen

Susulan tularnya video itu yang kini meraih sehingga 65K views, 127 retweets dan 285 likes di Twitter, rata-rata netizen memberikan pelbagai reaksi masing-masing. Berikut di bawah merupakan antara komen menarik daripada netizen di Twitter:

COVID-19: Temperature Checks & Log Books Will No Longer Be Mandatory At Public Premises

Subscribe to our Telegram channel for our latest stories and breaking news.

Malaysia will remove the requirement of temperature checks for entry into public premises from its COVID-19 standard operating procedures (SOPs) as it is not an effective measure to control the coronavirus

Speaking to the media yesterday, 20 January, Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin said the Ministry of Health's (MOH) decision to drop temperature checks from the SOPs will be brought to the National Security Council (MKN) meeting so that the National Recovery Plan SOP documents can be revised."The ministry has agreed for temperature checks to be taken out from the existing SOP. After it is amended in the next COVID-19 Quartet Ministerial Meeting, it will no longer be compulsory for premises to have temperature checks. It's sufficient to just scan MySejahtera. No more temperature checks," he said.

Khairy also said the ministry will suggest to MKN to do away with the logbooks because MOH doesn't use them for contact tracing

"The other thing we will suggest to MKN to do away with is the book because I can tell you we don't use the book for contact tracing," Khairy said during the press conference yesterday.The logbooks are provided at public premises for visitors to note down their names and contact details.

"If you're unwell, don't go out"

According to Khairy, the reasoning behind the SOP change is that MOH has found that temperature screenings and the use of logbooks don't have any effect on curbing the spread of COVID-19 infections."The advice is that if you are unwell or showed symptoms, don't go out. We don't need to test everyone's temperature anymore. You can be sick and not have COVID-19. It (the temperature checks) doesn't prove that you have COVID-19. I think we have reached the stage where we can do away with it," he added.


Ingin Tamatkan Prejudis Agama, Ketua Mufti Dan Archbishop KL Adakan Sesi "Hati Ke Hati"

Satu pertemuan bersejarah telah berlangsung semalam diantara Mufti Wilayah Persekutuan, Ustaz Dr Zulkifli Mohamad Al-Bakri dengan Ketua Biskop Kuala Lumpur, Julian Leow

Image via Ustaz Dr. Zulkifli Mohamad Al-Bakri/Facebook

Pertemuan bersejarah ini diadakan bertujuan bagi membincangkan mengenai pelbagai isu termasuk keperluan toleransi dan saling menghormati antara agama.Pertemuan ini dianggap satu usaha terpuji dan perkembangan yang sangat baik ketika negara berdepan ketegangan antara kedua-dua komuniti itu susulan kontroversi berhubung satu seminar anti Kristian yang diadakan di Universiti Teknologi Mara hujung tahun lalu.

        themalaysianinsider.com

Menerusi Facebook, Ustaz Dr Zulkifli merakamkan setinggi-tinggi penghargaan di atas kunjungan bersejarah Leow ke pejabatnya di Kuala Lumpur

Sementara itu, Presiden Global Unity Network, Shah Kirit memberitahu bahawa kedua-dua pemimpin agama itu begitu teruja dapat mengadakan perbualan "hati ke hati"

Shah memberitahu kedua-dua pihak gembira dengan pertemuan itu dan Zulkifli dijangka turut mengadakan kunjungan hormat kepada Leow pada tarikh yang akan ditentukan secepat mungkin."Mereka gembira dapat bercakap dengan satu sama lain dan mufti berkata, seseorang yang mengaku menganut mana-mana agama, secara semula jadinya, tidak akan suka berkonflik."Ketua biskop pula bercerita mengenai bagaimana rakyat Malaysia daripada latar belakang berbeza boleh hidup bersama dengan aman 40 tahun yang lalu dan kita mesti wujudkan semula suasana itu," kata Shah.

        themalaysianinsider.com

Pada mulanya, Leow meminta untuk bertemu para imam masjid. Kemudian Shah mencadangkan supaya ketua biskop itu terus bertemu mufti, dan Leow bersetuju.

Beliau berkata, pertemuan itu diadakan selepas dirancang selama 2 bulan."Apabila saya bangkitkan perkara itu dengan mufti, beliau sangat gembira mendengar ketua biskop tersebut ingin bertemunya. Begitulah bagaimana pertemuan itu akhirnya terjadi," kata Shah lagi.

        themalaysianinsider.com

Shah berkata kumpulan itu sering menerajui penganjuran pelbagai program yang mempromosikan pertemuan dan aktiviti antara agama."Kami menganjurkan majlis berbuka puasa antara 25 imam masjid dan 25 paderi Kristian sebelum ini dan kami juga pernah menerima sekumpulan ustaz dan ustazah melawat gereja dan kuil pada tahun-tahun sebelum ini," katanya.

        themalaysianinsider.com

Sememangnya, prejudis dan syak wasangka antara agama tidak membawa manfaat kepada sesiapa pun.
Bukankah keharmonian seperti ini yang kita mahukan?

Gadis Ajar DIY Inai Dengan 3 Bahan Saja. Dijamin Halal & Paling Penting Boleh Bawa Solat!

Kadang-kadang rasa geram je bila tengok kuku orang lain pakai pewarna kuku. Nampak cantik sangat!

Nak pakai nail polish, takut tak boleh bawa solat pula. Walaupun ada jenama yang claim ianya halal dan boleh dipakai ketika solat, tapi hati masih ragu-ragu.

Gambar adalah sekadar hiasan.
Image via Face to Feet

Nak pakai daun inai, ianya sukar untuk dicari dan proses membuatnya juga agak leceh. Daun inai perlu hancur betul dan warna yang terhasil selalunya tidak begitu merah tapi lebih kepada warna jingga atau oren.

Inai instant ada sahaja di kedai-kedai India tapi bila difikirkan semula, kenapa perlu beli jikalau boleh membuatnya sendiri dengan mudah di samping dengan harga yang jauh lebih murah?

Seorang gadis bernama Rosdiana Dian telah berkongsikan cara membuat inai homemade dengan modal tak sampai RM3 pun.
Dan paling penting, boleh bawa solat!

Menerusi perkongsian di laman Facebook yang dibuat pada tahun 2017, Rosdiana telah menunjukkan cara-cara membuat inai dengan menggunakan hanya 3 bahan sahaja.

Cara untuk membuatnya ternyata sangatlah cepat dan mudah. Malah, hasilnya juga akan menjadikan inai itu tampak lebih merah, cantik, serta tahan lama.

Jom baca perkongsian penuh di bawah!

Hi semua,Mak nak share inai homemade yang Mak buat siang tadi. Actually you all boleh juga tanya Pakcik Google. Cuma resepi ni Mak dapat dari kawan Mak.Mungkin lain orang lain bahannya. Modal tak sampai 3 ringgit.3 bahan-bahan asas:1. Kapur sireh/kapur makan tu. Ini paling utama. Takde ni maka pewarna tak boleh serap dalam kuku (sukatan hujung sudu kecil). Sikit secoet ja. Jangan banyak-banyak takut panas, kang sakit pulak kuku tu Mak tak jamin.

Ini kapur sireh. Boleh beli kat kedai runcit. Takpun try jengah kat dapur kome. Mesti ada punya la. Bukan nak pakai banyak pun. secoet ja.
Image via Facebook Rosdiana Dian

Agak-agak gini la sukatan kapur sireh tu tadi. Jangan banyak sangat kang lain jadinya.
Image via Facebook Rosdiana Dian

Bukan kapur kasut tau tau tau. Ni ha, kapur sireh atau dikenali sebagai kapur makan.
Image via Facebook Rosdiana Dian

2. Sabun mandi yang jenis ketul/buku (sukatan 2cm persegi). Atau, sabun Axion pun boleh. Ada orang pakai sabun Axion atau brand lain janji bentuk pes tu. Jangan yang cecair tu tau (kalau Axion dalam sukatan 1 sudu besar).

Besar tu ja sabun mandi Mak pakai. Dalam ukuran 2cm persegi. Mak pakai sabun yang dapat dari hotel-hotel (mujur ada), sebab rumah mak pakei sabun gemuk. Axion pun takde. Basuh pinggan pakai yang cecair. Mak parut pakai gunting je.
Image via Facebook Rosdiana Dian

Ni la hasil sabun mandi yang Mak dah siap parut tadi.
Image via Facebook Rosdiana Dian

3. Pewarna makanan kaler ceri merah. Ada yang pakai sirap, ikutlah nak warna apa pun oren, purple, hijau, coklat ke, hitam ke. Siapa berani nak kuku kaler-kaler leh try. Jangan yang kordial tau. Itu tak boleh, lain jadinya karang. Agak-agak sukatan setengah atau sebotol ikut kepekatan).

Ini la pewarna makanan yang Mak pakai. Pewarna ceri merah cap Bunga Rose. Harga dalam RM2.50. Ada juga yang pakai sirap. Tak kisah la uolls nak kaler apa pun. Ungu ke. hijau ke. hitam coklat ke. Mak tak rela pulak nak kaler hijau. Tapi jangan yang jenis kordial tu tau. Naiya ja kang tak jadik.
Image via Facebook Rosdiana Dian

Cara-cara bancuhan:1. Campur semua 3 bahan asas ke dalam mangkuk dan adun hingga sebati. Boleh adjust ikut kelikatan dan kecairan hasil. Toksah campur air tau.

Ni struktur bancuhan 3 bahan asas tadi.
Image via Facebook Rosdiana Dian

Ni hasilnya. Dapat se-tupperware kecil.
Image via Facebook Rosdiana Dian

2. Kemudian sapu rata di kuku pakai putik kapas yang saiz kecil. Biarkan 20-30 minit, ala-ala kering. Kemudian cuci bersih-bersih.

Mak pakei putik kapas yang kecil tu ha.
Image via Facebook Rosdiana Dian

Ni tangan kiri mak. Rasa kemas ja.
Image via Facebook Rosdiana Dian

Dapat tangan kanan. Jenuh, comot, sebab Mak bukan lefthanded. Tapi toksah bimbang. Bior comot terkena kulit pun, sebab yang kat kulit boleh hilang, yang kat kuku ja kekal hingga kuku dipotong.
Image via Facebook Rosdiana Dian

Hasilnya!

Image via fbcdn.net

Ni hasilnya. Semoga terinspirasi buat uolls. Mak buat ni sebab stok inai Mak dah habis. Inai dari Mekah tuari pun ilek. Dah la Mak memang inai tak putus dijari. Sentiasa pengantin baru ler katakan.

Lagi satu yang beli kat kedai tu tak tahan lama. Kejap ja pudar. Nak cari daun inai nak tumbuk-tumbuk jenuh ler pulak. Maka, terhasil laa inai moden nih.

Lagi satu, yang paling penting boleh bawa solat. Sebab warna menyerap ke dalam kuku. Bukan hanya sekadar menutup permukaan kuku macam kuitik tu (betul ke Mak eja). Tak caya lepas pakai try ler kikis. Boleh ke idok.

Selamat mencuba!

Kind Man Jumps Over Neighbour's Wall To Take In Their Clothes As It Starts To Rain

Follow us on Instagram, TikTok, and Telegram for the latest stories and breaking news.

It's always a privilege to get to know your neighbours.
Beyond sharing a common living area, having good neighbours who are willing to go the extra mile for one another is always a plus to maintain a harmonious living environment.

One woman, on the other hand, may have hit the metaphorical jackpot when it comes to neighbours after a heartwarming video went viral online.Posted to the Thai TikTok account @littlemonster316, the clip shows an angle of CCTV footage outside of the user's house, specifically the porch within her gated compound. The 38-second feature begins with a visual of it raining outside. Unfortunately for the home owner, she'd left numerous items of clothing to be dried on a clothes rack outside.However, the clip quickly shows a man jumping over the side barrier that divides two houses. Dressed in red, the man jumps the wall and into the compound of the TikTok user's home. Without hesitating, he walks over to the clothes rack and pulls it into the shaded region of the porch, saving the items from getting wet.Waiting for a split second, the man sees if the rain gets heavier, proceeding to pull the rack in just a tad bit more. After that, he immediately jumps back over the wall, and into the compound of the house next door.

Warming hearts all around the world, the TikTok video has garnered over 11 million views and 200,000 likes in just two days

Expressing their thoughts, thousands of TikTok users poured into the comments section to tell the poster of the video to appreciate the man for doing such a good deed. The user herself had later mentioned in the comments that the man is a carpenter who was working for her neighbour. In her caption, the user simply wrote, "I'm grateful.""At first I thought he was going for the car! But he just came over to help move the clothes because it was raining. How lucky for you to get a neighbour like this," wrote on user."Good people will always do good deeds," penned another.

Netizens Praise Kelantan Man For Saving Poisoned Dog With Blankets & Coconut Water

Subscribe to our Telegram channel for our latest stories and breaking news.

A man in Kelantan is receiving praise online for trying his best to save a poisoned dog that recently stumbled in front of his house

Hafiy Zulhilmy Hassan, also known as Apih McQuinn on Facebook, wrote a post about the encounter on Tuesday, 2 December.Through the videos, he said he found the dog foaming at its mouth and shaking uncontrollably on the floor at 3am in the morning.Apih wrote that he wasn't a veterinarian but he immediately tried to help as best as he could."Although it's a dog, it is still a creature created by Allah. It's not my dog, not sure whose it is, looks like it escaped, but it came to me to ask for help," he said.

Image via Apih McQuinn (Facebook)

With the help of a friend, Apih quickly wrapped the dog up in a blanket and tried to flush its mouth with water

In one of the videos, the dog looked like it was in a catatonic state — its eyes wide open yet unblinking as Apih gently encouraged it to open its mouth.They had chopped down two coconuts from a tree and broke it open to feed to the paralysed dog.At one point, they also tapped the dog and were concerned that it had already died.The 36-year-old told SAYS, "I was in a panic, but I remembered my father saying coconut water can reduce some poisons and naturally clear the blood in the body".Slowly, they managed to pry open the dog's rigid mouth and had it finish two coconuts full of water.

Image via Apih McQuinn (Facebook)

The next morning, Apih said the dog fortunately recovered

He had released the dog and it ran away after he fed it with some sardines."If I see the dog again, I'll upload a video," he assured, as netizens asked about the state of the dog.He also told SAYS that he believes that he did the right thing that night as a human being."Even though I am Muslim, I think we should love and care for all animals. Because they are also creatures by God," he said.

In the comments section, netizens thanked Apih for saving the dog and condemned those who poisoned it in the first place

"Good on you for saving it. May Allah bless you with good fortune, and bring ease to all that you do. Not many people are willing to do this," said a Facebook user.

Image via Facebook

Another said, "Alhamdulillah. Thank you, abang, for saving this dog. Let's hope it fully recovers."

Meanwhile, this person said, "Almost in tears to see how kindly you treated the poor fellow — at 3am! May God bless you and your family abundantly!"

A 3-year-old Great Dane was saved by a veterinarian after she removed 43 and a half socks from the dog's stomach

Because the material was deemed indigestible, Magee had to resort to a two-hour surgery to remove the mass. The contents of his belly? Socks. A lot of them. Forty-three and a half to be precise (a cloud of mystery hangs over the whereabouts of the half-sock).

        mashable.com

"We opened up his stomach and kept removing sock after sock of all different shapes and sizes," Dr. Ashley Magee at DoveLewis Animal Hospital in Portland, Oregon, told CNN affiliate KGW.

According to The Oregonian, the family rushed the dog to an animal hospital when the canine wouldn’t stop vomiting and retching. Dr. Ashley Magee took several x-rays of the animal and found “a lot of foreign material in his stomach,” according the animal hospital’s spokesperson.

        globalnews.ca

After vomiting and retching during the day, abdominal radiographs revealed "a severely distended stomach and a large quality of foreign material," according to Veterinary Practice News.

There's no need to worry though, as the canine was discharged and recovered just a day after surgery

The Great Dane was discharged only a day after surgery, and as if his survival wasn't a miraculous enough ending to this tale, Veterinary Practice News announced on August 27 that the hospital had won a second-place money prize for their story.

Who won the first prize? A joint tie between a frog who ate 30 rocks from his cage and a dog who ate a shish kebab skewer

Oh, and yes — that means there were weirder entries: the sock-gobbling Great Dane was "beat out" by a frog named Kermit who ate 30 rocks from his cage and tied with a German shorthaired pointer who swallowed a metal shish kabob skewer.

        mashable.com

Oh, and those X-rays even impressed the experts. The vet clinic submitted them to the annual "They Ate WHAT?" contest at Veterinary Practice News and won the $500 third prize, losing out to a frog who gobbled up 30 rocks from the bottom his cage and a German shorthaired pointer who swallowed a metal shish kabob skewer.

Lebih 400,000 Peminjam PTPTN Akan Dibuang Dari Senarai Hitam Untuk Ke Luar Negara

Menteri Pendidikan Dr Maszlee Malik semalam pada 31 Mei, mengumumkan bahawa kementeriannya sedang membuang lebih daripada 400,000 peminjam Perbadanan Tabung Pendidikan Tinggi Nasional (PTPTN) dari senarai hitam untuk ke luar negara

Image via says.com

Free Malaysia Today (FMT) melaporkan bahawa menteri baru itu berkata Jabatan Imigresen telah mula dengan proses mengeluarkan nama-nama peminjam PTPTN yang telah disenarai hitamkan sejak 24 Mei. Proses ini dijangka akan selesai pada 15 Jun."Sekiranya ada antara kamu yang menghadapi masalah di lapangan terbang, sila hubungi pegawai kami di sana," katanya seperti laporan yang dikeluarkan oleh Malay Mail.

Walau bagaimanapun, nama peminjam akan tetap berada di bawah Sistem Maklumat Rujukan Kredit Pusat (CCRIS), yang menghalang mereka daripada mendapatkan pinjaman bank

Maszlee juga mengatakan bahawa mereka yang menghadapi masalah pembayaran balik harus pergi ke mana-mana cawangan pejabat PTPTN untuk rundingkan jumlah yang mampu untuk dibayar."Mereka perlu berjumpa pihak kami (PTPTN) untuk restructure pembayaran pinjaman semula jika mereka menghadapi masalah. Contohnya, jika mereka tidak dapat membayar RM100 sebulan, kita boleh membincangkan untuk penurunan nilai," katanya dalam satu laporan yang dikeluarkan New Straits Times (NST).

Image via Gila Hartanah

Dr Maszlee juga menyatakan bahawa janji Pakatan Harapan (PH) mengenai PTPTN perlu ditunda sementara waktu oleh kerana hutang negara yang mengejutkan

Image via Malay Mail

Pakatan Harapan berjanji dalam manifesto pilihan raya bahawa mereka akan menangguhkan pembayaran balik kepada peminjam yang memperoleh pendapatan RM4,000 dan ke bawah.Memetik laporan The Star Online, Maszlee berkata bahawa kementerian memerlukan lebih banyak masa untuk mencari cara terbaik untuk memenuhi janji itu dalam masa 100 hari seperti yang dijanjikan.

Fishermen In A Netflix Show About 1MDB Draw Criticism For Saying "Najib Can Steal Money"

The second season of Dirty Money featuring former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak dropped on Netflix yesterday, 11 March

In the 57-minute-long episode titled The Man At The Top, the documentary unveils how Najib and fugitive financier Jho Low are connected to the 1MDB scandal, a financial shenanigan so big that the US Attorney General described as the case as "kleptocracy at its worst". Other than having a rare sit-down interview with Najib himself, it also features many critics of the scandal, such as former premier Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, PKR president Datuk Sri Anwar Ibrahim, whistleblower Xavier Andre Justo, and Sarawak Report founder Clare Rewcastle Brown, among others.

Image via Dirty Money/Netflix

The documentary also features some villagers from rural parts of the country

Image via Dirty Money/Netflix

41 minutes into the documentary, following a cut after Dr Mahathir accuses Najib of buying support by offering monetary handouts, the showrunners interviewed a group of fishermen in a poor neighbourhood in Malaysia.In an agitated voice, one fisherman says, "Najib used to give us RM300. Now, Mahathir gives us less."

			Though Najib takes money from others, from the country, he gives it to the people.
        A Malaysian fisherman

"He takes care of the people. It's okay if he takes the country's money. Who doesn't steal? What prime minister doesn't steal?"The same rhetoric also is echoed by other villagers, saying that under Najib's regime, fishermen were able to get boats, engines, and dedicated schools for children of fishermen.

Many Malaysians have since taken to Twitter to express their disgust over what some of the villagers have said in the show

Image via Dirty Money/Netflix

This is one of many scenes netizens highlighted on Twitter, with one netizen frustratingly noting it as a  "goddamn problem".

This is our goddamn problem: “Though Najib takes money from others, from the country, he gives it to the people. He takes care of the people. It’s okay if he takes the country’s money. Who doesn’t steal? What prime minister doesn’t steal?” https://t.co/dshjj0GcN2— Shahriman Lockman (@raylockman) March 10, 2020

Another Twitter user also highlighted the same part of the documentary, saying "Some fishermen even think Najib is great even though he stole so much of money."

Other than that, some Twitter users also cheekily warned that the documentary is not for Barisan Nasional supporters and those who hail Najib as 'bossku'

"Do not watch if you love BN, Najib Razak, or love the quote 'Malu apa bossku'," wrote a netizen.

"I'm watching Dirty Money season 2 episode 2 (Netflix) about Najib. After just a few seconds in the episode, I'm filled with anger and disgust," another person said."How this man was able to blatantly LIE to the public, the people that he's suppose to have his best interest in, is beyond me (sic)."

One netizen advised Malaysians to watch the episode quick before the Film Censorship Board (LPF) decides to ban the show

The Twitter user said, "57 minutes of Netflix on Najib and 1MDB. Watch this quick, before the new government takes it down, and blames it on 'tEchNicaL diFfiCulTieS' and 'cOpYriGhT viOLaTioNs'."

The documentary is believed to be filmed in early 2019 before Najib's corruption trials began

Image via Dirty Money/Netflix

It is revealed at the 43-minute mark that Najib says he will be attending his trial in the coming two weeks.The documentary also labelled Dr Mahathir as the Prime Minister. However, the Pakatan Harapan government collapsed on 24 February, with a new coalition forming a government under a new Prime Minister, Muhyiddin Yassin, earlier this month.The episode sums up the struggles of the opposition trying to bring down Najib and interviews over a dozen of people close to the 1MDB scandal, including Goldman Sachs former executive director Alex Turnbull, High Court attorney David Gurupatham, The Edge Media chief executive officer Ho Kay Tat, and many more.It definitely unfolds some unheard stories about the scandal. You can watch it here.

In June last year, Najib was featured in an episode of Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj on Netflix:

The New Toyota C-HR Features A Diamond Design With Exceptional Edgy Styling

This Spotlight is sponsored by Toyota.

The Toyota C-HR is probably one of the most anticipated cars from the brand

Image via Toyota

The stylish SUV has captured many people's attention when it was first unveiled at a preview back in August last year. Now, you can finally see it in show rooms and even request for a test drive.

Based on the car's specs, it's not hard to see why people are excited about the car:

1. The C-HR's super sleek and sporty design

Image via Toyota

The diamond design gives the SUV its sporty and sophisticated look. While it looks like a two-door coupé from the side, a closer look at it will reveal the hidden rear door handle. This really reminds us of one of those cool James Bond cars.

Image via Toyota

But this design is not just for show - the diamond design actually helps enhance the car's stability and fuel economy. The C-HR is available in five different colours: White Pearl, Metal Stream Metallic, Red Mica, Blue Metallic, and Attitude Black Mica.

Image via Toyota

2. The car not only looks great on the inside, but it's really comfortable too

Image via Toyota

The C-HR is a driver-centric car, which means that it's designed to provide you with the best driving experience. All the meters and displays are built angled towards the driver, with bright white and blue lighting for easy monitoring. It also features a shiny black dashboard lined with silver ornamentations, which comes with soft padding that complements the black leather seats.

Image via Toyota

For passengers, the interior of the car is crafted in such a way to provide you with the most comfortable travelling experience. Don't worry about long road trips - the seats come with power lumbar support, which reduces the discomfort when you're seated for too long.

3. It's designed using the Toyota New Global Architecture (TNGA) platform

Image via Toyota

The all-new Toyota C-HR sits on TNGA - a new platform that features a strong, stiff body shell to improve ride comfort and safety, as well as a low centre of gravity for a more engaging drive and balanced handling.Together with the rear double wishbone suspension, the C-HR contributes significantly to the driving experience whilst maintaining ride comfort and stability.

4. It comes equipped with extensive safety features

Image via Toyota

Safety is the most important feature of a car. With seven airbags, this car really gets you all covered. It comes with a Rear Cross Traffic Alert and a Blind Spot Monitor, which will light up or beep when another vehicle is detected to be near you. You'll also be alerted by the Tyre Pressure Monitoring System when the pressure goes below 80%. Overall, the C-HR is made with world-class security features that will keep you and your family safe while travelling.

5. It allows you to choose between three drive modes

Image via Toyota

'Customising' your driving experience is possible with the C-HR as the SUV comes with three different drive modes. Want to go further with less fuel? Choose the Eco mode. Want better speed? The Sport mode is the one for you.
