Use This 5-Point Checklist The Next Time You're Driving Long Distance

Before all the makan pit-stops and the epic wefies, there's one final stretch of adulting you're gonna have to do: making sure your car is up for the drive

Image via Tumblr

Firstly, it's highly advisable to be on track with your car's service schedule. Once that's done, check these 5 basic things before embarking on that long drive:

1. Under the hood

Park your car on level ground before starting these basic checks:

Image via InfoKereta.com (edited)

A. Windshield Washer Fluid Open the tank cap with the windshield logo on it. If the water level is low, top it up with distilled water to avoid any clogging. B. Engine OilPull the dipstick out, wipe with a clean cloth and insert it back in its groove. Pull it out again and make sure the oil level is is between the 'Low' and 'Full' mark. If the level is less than 'Low', top it up. C. CoolantCheck fluid levels in the radiator and the reservoir tank; top up with coolant or distilled water if fluids are low. Just make sure the engine is cool before opening the radiator cap, to avoid injury. D. Battery Most batteries are good for a little more than a year, so if it's been longer than that since your battery was last changed, changing it before your trip would be a wise idea.

2. Wipers

Image via Glasshopper

Start by spraying water onto the windshield and testing out your wipers to see if they're moving and clearing the water properly. If you're noticing that the water smears the screen instead of being completely cleared off, wipe your wiper blades with a clean cloth dipped in warm, soapy water. If the smearing remains, it's likely that your blades are worn. Get them replaced.

3. Lights

Image via Road Block in Progress

A road trip is a dangerous time to be having malfunctioning light bulbs. Test out your indicators, brakes, reverse and headlights to make sure they're all working perfectly.

4. Tyres

Image via Faezaseri.com

Check your door frame for the recommended front and rear tyre pressure. Set the air pump meter to the corresponding pressure and pump away until you hear the beep.

Image via ZSM/Youtube

While you're at it, it's a great idea to check the pressure in your spare tyre too. To be sure on the optimum pressure for the spare, check the manual.

5. Emergency Kit

Image via Invest and Research

Here's a basic checklist of things you should always have in your car, in case of emergencies: - Tool kit including tire gauge, screwdrivers, pliers and such- Jumper wires- Flash light- Reflective warning triangle - Compact fire extinguisher - Some rags - First aid kit including plasters, gauze pads, and antiseptic ointment - Bottles of distilled water

Take nothing for granted. Planning ahead and checking the 5 basic components above will ensure a safer drive.

Looks like you're more than ready to roll! Drive safe and have a great trip =)

This Heartwarming CNY Video Shows How Friendships Can Be Formed When You Least Expect It

This Spotlight is sponsored by Matrix.

Sometimes, friendships can be found in the unlikeliest of places

We usually think of friends as our peers, people our age who we can joke with, go to movies with, or just generally do silly things with.

Image via Giphy

However, Matrix's latest CNY video shows that you can also develop friendships with those who you least expect

Image via Matrix

The video revolves around a girl who always passes by the same old lady on her way to school. After many days of interacting with each other from afar, they develop a connection. One day, the girl decides to invite the old lady over to her house for Chinese New Year, where they are finally able to meet and communicate face-to-face.

Watch the full video below to see how the plot plays out:

Now that CNY is nearing, you would also be able to bond more with your Poh Poh and Gong Gong

Image via Matrix

Whether it's decorating the house together or helping them cook the reunion dinner, CNY is definitely a great time to bridge the generation gap and harvest a deeper connection with them.

When celebrating Chinese New Year this year, remember to connect more with your loved ones, because the bond that you've created can go a long way

Image via Matrix

So, while you're busy stuffing your face with pineapple tarts and counting how much ang pow money you've collected, don't lose sight of the bigger reason behind celebrating Chinese New Year. Enjoy the time you get to spend with your relatives near and far, because this precious holiday is probably the only time that your WHOLE family gets to be together!


Dia Tunjuk Video Lucah - Gadis 17 Tahun Kongsi Detik Trauma Diganggu Pegawai JPJ Gila Seks

Isu lelaki 'miang' kini semakin berleluasa. Sebab itu perkara seperti ini HARUS ditangani supaya tidak melarat dan melibatkan lebih ramai mangsa.

Image via witf.org

Image via Instagram @queen.nabila

Menurut perkongsian gadis yang dikenali sebagai Nabila berumur 17 tahun ini, beliau telah mengalami gangguan seksual dari salah seorang pegawai Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan (JPJ) ketika sedang menjalani ujian memandu bersama lelaki terbabit. Lelaki itu dengan secara tiba-tiba telah menunjuk video lucah kepadanya ketika dia sedang memandu.

Terkejut dengan perbuatan pegawai itu, gadis ini bertindak untuk menghubungi bapanya sejurus ujian memandu tamat

Image via Instagram @queen.nabila

Bukan itu sahaja, pegawai terbabit juga telah bertanyakan soalan tentang teman lelaki dan membuatkan gadis itu tidak selesa. Malah, pegawai itu juga mengambil kesempatan untuk meminta nombor telefon tetapi permintaannya ditolak.

Gadis ini juga dikatakan telah menyebarkan gambar pegawai terbabit melalui laman Instagram miliknya dengan tujuan supaya orang lain tidak terkena nasib yang sama

Image via Instagram @queen.nabila

Kejadian ini membuatkan warga Twitter berasa berang dengan tindakan pegawai JPJ berkenaan. Masing-masing menganggap perkara seperti ini tidak sepatutnya terjadi kepada mana-mana pihak.

Beberapa perkongsian lain yang dikongsi melalui tweet yang berbalas merupakan individu lain yang pernah melalui kejadian seperti itu. Menurut mereka juga, kebanyakan pegawai JPJ di mana-mana sekolah memandu memang 'miang' dan sering ambil kesempatan untuk mendapatkan nombor telefon murid perempuan yang diajarnya.Sangat tidak patut!

Untuk mengelakkan kes seperti ini berlaku, gadis-gadis di luar sana harus lebih berwaspada dan kalau boleh, sentiasa bawa ibu bapa atau adik-beradik untuk teman ketika di sekolah memandu!

Sarawakian Singer Calls Out Airline Companies For Increasing Air Ticket Prices Before Xmas

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

Sarawakian singer-songwriter Alena Murang is calling out local airline companies for hiking up their air ticket prices in December and making it difficult for East Malaysians to travel home this festive season

In a Facebook post yesterday, 22 November, Alena said she is shocked at the prices of air tickets for flights from Kuala Lumpur to Kuching, saying that it is so expensive that "we might as well be flying to London".The Borneo-born artiste demanded AirAsia, Malaysia Airlines, Malindo Air, and Sarawak Transport Minister Datuk Seri Lee Kim Shin to give the public an answer for the price hike.Additionally, unlike flying to Sarawak, Alena found out that flying to other places in Malaysia — such as Kota Kinabalu and Langkawi — during the same period remains "affordable"."If you knew how many tears were shed by all the Sarawakians who couldn't return home last year cause [of] lockdown, please have a heart. I mean we are the state that celebrates Christmas the most!" she said."On behalf of all Sarawakians, those working outside of Sarawak and those waiting for their loved ones to come home, please reduce the prices or at least give us a logical explanation for the prices."

In the post, Alena uploaded three photos showing that the prices of flight tickets from Kuala Lumpur to Kuching can go up to RM2,600

The flight ticket price for the week before Christmas averages around RM1,485.On the first and second days of January 2022, ticket prices are RM2,400 and RM2,600 respectively.The prices for the rest of the week are around RM1,700.

In the comments section of Alena's post, many netizens said airline companies have always hiked up their prices before Christmas

One user remarked that it was nothing new to see airfare prices hiked up during peak periods, such as festive seasons or during elections."True! Can travel overseas with that price," said another Facebook user. "Oof. My flight from KL to Kuching the other day was RM2,000. But luckily, I wasn't (the one) paying," said another person.

A Private Clinic In Penang That Sold MCs For RM10 A Day Has Been Ordered To Close Down

A private clinic in George Town, Penang was ordered to close down for selling medical certificates (MC) and operating without a licence

The clinic located on Lebuh Naning was sealed by Penang Health Department's Private Healthcare Practice Control Branch (CKAPS) on Monday, 17 February, reported Bernama.

In 2018, CKAPS' Pharmacy Division carried out an inspection on the clinic and found that there was a stock of expired medicines

The clinic, which had been in operation for 16 years, did not have an organised patient registration system nor any records as well.The department issued a warning, but little was changed during a follow-up inspection.This led to the state Health Department revoking the clinic's operating licence on 10 December last year.

However, the clinic continued to stay open by making profit with the sale of MCs

The clinic reportedly sold a day of MC for RM10.When contacted by Bernama, Penang Health director Dr Asmayani Khalib confirmed that the clinic has been sealed.The department is currently investigating the case under Section 91(1) of the Private Healthcare Facilities and Services Act 1998 for operating without a licence or in contravention of the conditions set by the Director General of Health Malaysia.

[VIDEO] #MadsLendu Dah Macam Parti Liar, Pelajar Dituduh Ambil Alkohol Dan Dadah

Pada 22-24 Januari yang lepas, bertempat di Dataran Keris UiTM Alor Gajah, atau lebih dikenali sebagai UiTM Lendu, Malacca Arts and Design Students (MADS) telah mengadakan sebuah program seni secara besar-besaran

Program ini merupakan anjuran pelajar-pelajar dari Faculty of Arts and Design, UiTM Alor Gajah dan pelbagai jenis aktiviti telah dijalankan sepanjang dua hari tersebut. Antaranya, creative show, roadshow, art talk, foodgasm, explorace dan banyak lagi.

Program ini betul-betul mendapat pujian dari pelajar UiTM Lendu dan turut viral di twitter. Jika anda tidak percaya, anda boleh search hashtag #madslendu #madsymptoms dan #fssrAD di setiap laman sosial.

Bagaimanapun, ia menjadi lebih VIRAL apabila satu video berdurasi 15 saat pada malam kemuncak program tersebut telah tersebar dan mendapat kecaman para netizen

Melalui video tersebut, kelihatan para pelajar termasuk lelaki dan perempuan sedang terkinja-kinja menikmati suasana meriah yang rancak dengan alunan muzik yang kuat seolah-olah berada di dalam sebuah kelab malam. Ia menjadi viral apabila Facebook page yang bernama Sokernet telah berkongsi video tersebut pada akaunnya semalam.

Image via Sokernet/facebook

Tahukah anda,Salam Polis Diraja Malaysia ( Royal Malaysia Police ). Tolong siasat kandungan dan peserta video ini. Saya sebagai rakyat yang prihatin dengan akhlak anak muda risau dengan tindak tanduk mereka. Mengikut pengalaman, mereka mungkin di bawah pengaruh dadah atau bahan alkohol.Butiran laporan adalah seperti berikut.Lokasi : UiTM LenduTarikh : 24 Januari 2016Masa : Antara 9PM -12PMSuspek : Pelajar UiTM LenduEvent : Siasat hashtag #madslendu dan #madsymptomTerima kasih.Posted by Sokernet on Sunday, 24 January 2016

Dalam post tersebut, Sokernet telah meminta pihak Polis Diraja Malaysia untuk menyiasat kandungan video tersebut dengan kenyataan yang menimbulkan kemarahan peserta-peserta program itu iaitu "Mengikut pengalaman, mereka mungkin di bawah pengaruh dadah atau bahan alkohol".Dalam masa satu hari saja video tersebut telah ditonton hampir 3 ratus ribu tontonan dan telah dikongsi sebanyak lebih 3 ribu kali!

Nampaknya ramai yang tidak bersetuju dengan pelaksanaan program MADS tersebut. Ini antara 'komen kecam' daripada netizen:

Image via imgur.com

Dalam masa yang sama, ada juga yang memberitahu bahawa mereka semua (yang terlibat) sememangnya 'bersih' pada malam tersebut malah para pensyarah dan polis turut bersama mereka pada malam kemuncak program itu. Jadi, adalah mustahil untuk mereka di bawah pengaruh dadah dan mabuk kerana ia dilakukan di dalam kawasan universiti.Akan tetapi, ada juga yang menggambarkan video berdurasi 15 saat tersebut tak ubah seperti kelab malam terkenal di ibu kota iaitu Zouk.

Namun, sebilangan pengguna Facebook yang dipercayai juga merupakan pelajar universiti itu bengang dengan kenyataan fitnah yang dilemparkan Sokernet

Image via imgur.com

Malah, beberapa jam kemudian satu lagi video berkaitan turut dimuatnaik. Kali ini pula, kelihatan pelajar sedang bergelut dengan api yang marak. Mungkin digunakan untuk persembahan

Tahukah anda masuk UiTM sebab keluar nanti niat nak kerja sarkis? Abang cakap bodo karang, merajuk. Dah merajuk, makan banyak. Lepas tu jadi gemok. Dah gemok, bising.Posted by Sokernet on Sunday, 24 January 2016

Sehubungan itu, mantan Yang Dipertua MPP UiTM Alor Gajah atau lebih dikenali sebagai UiTM Lendu itu, tampil memberi pandangannya mengenai isu terbabit

Zulfitri Basir dalam sebuah post mengatakan dia terpanggil untuk memberi komen kerana ramai yang meminta pandangannya selaku mantan YDP universiti tersebut.Dalam post tersebut Zulfitri memberitahu bahawa "Video yang kurang dari 1minit ini tidak boleh menghakimi semua perkara yang mereka lakukan selama 2 hari. Program yang diadakan ini adalah dibawah fakulti Art and Design ataupun nama lain Seni Kreatif."

Tambahnya lagi banyak aktiviti yang berfaedah berlangsung sepanjang dua hari tersebut

"Ada banyak perkara yang baik, bakat dan kebolehan pelajar-pelajar ini kita boleh lihat sepanjang program dua hari itu tetapi penulis memilih video yang kurang dari 1minit untuk menjadikan isu."Dalam post itu juga beliau ada menyentuh isu mengenai agama islam yang mana sepatutnya semua pihak haruslah memberi pendekatan atau teguran yang baik jika anak-anak muda tersebut benar melakukan kesilapan."Islam itu luas maknanya. Iman itu juga luas pengertiannya. Di dalam kita inginkan sesuatu perkara yang baik, kita haruslah menggunakan pendekatan yang baik. Tidak adil bagi anak-anak muda ini jika mereka tidak diberi peluang untuk belajar jika ada kesilapan yg mereka lakukan. Tunjukkan mereka yang mana salah dan yang mana betul. Mudah sungguh kita MENGHUKUM mereka sedangkan kita tidak ada ketika itu bersama-sama mereka berusaha untuk buat yg terbaik di dalam program tersebut."Untuk kenyataan penuh beliau, anda boleh baca DI SINI

Temple Run Movie (YES, Movie) Coming To A Cinema Near You...

According to English media reports, the popular smartphone game ‘Temple Run’ could be adapted into a film

While it’s easy to see how games like Bioshock and Deus Ex end up in the news for possible film adaptions, it’s more difficult to imagine 'Temple Run' – a game that literally involves running and turning – translating successfully from the realm of handheld gaming to the silver screen.

But it looks like we won’t need to imagine it, as the popular iPhone/Android game is set to follow Angry Birds into the movie business.

        toucharcade.com

In many ways, it’s not really going to be a Temple Run film, per-say, rather an Indiana Jones-style adventure film using the Temple Run franchise to give it a boost from fans of the franchise.

        brecorder.com

Warner Bros with the Harry Potter series's David Heyman as the producer are said to be behind the film adaptation

Warner Bros is currently in talks about taking the best-selling Imangi video game to the big screen, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Award-winning English producer Heyman - who also worked on George Clooney and Sandra Bullock's hit film Gravity - is set to oversee the project.

        belfasttelegraph.co.uk

Heyman has worked on all eight of the Harry Potter films starring Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson, as well as Hollywood movies such as Yes Man and We're The Millers.

        theguardian.com

He is also tipped to produce Potter author JK Rowling's next franchise, Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them.

        telegraph.co.uk

The Smartphone game, developed and published by Imangi Studios, is amongst the best-selling apps in the world

Temple Run is a popular 'endless running' mobile game that made its debut on Apple's iOS in August 2011. The game was a huge hit, even though it was originally 99 cents to download. Imangi later switched the game to a freemium app i.e. a free app with in-app purchases.

        ndtv.com

At various points, the game became the most popular free, as well as top grossing app, on the App Store. In March 2012, the game made its debut on Android as a freemium app, and was downloaded over a million times in just 3 days.

        theguardian.com

In January 2013, Temple Run 2 was released, again on iOS first, and downloaded over 20 million times in just 4 days. A week later, Temple Run 2 came to Android, and soon became the fastest growing mobile game of all times. In March, the original Temple Run finally made its debut on Microsoft's Windows Phone platform.

Woman Refuses To Wear Face Mask On ETS And Tells The Captain Not To 'Shout' At Her

A video showing a woman not wearing a face mask while taking a long-haul train is going viral on Facebook

The video was shared by a netizen who only wishes to be known as Lee for this story. She said she encountered the incident when she was heading to Ipoh from Taiping, Perak via Electric Train Service (ETS) on 27 December 2020.Once she came aboard and went to her designated seat, she realised the woman sitting in front of her was not wearing a face mask.

Lee said she observed the woman for over 20 minutes and the latter did not make any attempt to wear a face mask.
Image via Facebook

Giving her the benefit of the doubt, Lee thought that the woman could have lost her face mask. Thus, she and her friend offered her a new one.

However, the woman said she had one, but refused to wear it.Upon hearing that, Lee's friend made a complaint to the staff on the train. Shortly after, the train broadcasted an announcement to remind passengers to put on their face masks.Lee told SAYS that a number of passengers were also not wearing their face masks at that time. But after the announcement, everyone put on their masks, except for the woman.This led the captain on the train to approach the woman and request that she put on the face mask.To which she replied, "I have [worn] it for four hours."According to Lee, the captain insisted the woman put on her face mask, but she kept saying no. At one point, she allegedly told the captain not to "shout" at her."I'm a customer, you cannot shout at me," Lee quoted the woman as saying, before explaining that the captain was not shouting at all.

"Don't become a problem for us," the captain repeatedly told the woman.
Image via Facebook

When the woman realised Lee was filming her during the altercation, she started scolding Lee

In the 19-second long video, she can be heard telling Lee not to film her and "behave like bullsh*t". In the end, after the captain's constant pleas, the woman finally put on her face mask.

Image via Facebook

However, Lee told SAYS that as she was leaving the station, she turned back and saw, through the window, the woman removing her face mask once again.

At the time of writing, Lee's post has gone viral with over 1,700 shares

Many netizens supported Lee for demanding the woman to wear a face mask."In public place, public transport must wear mask lah. Adoi, still need people to explain and explain again," read a comment."Don't want to wear masks, please don't come out. Stay at home. Selfish people," another person chastised.Meanwhile, one Facebook user said the woman should have been handed to the police so that she could be slapped with a RM1,000 fine.

Remember to limit your movement and wash your hands often. Watch the latest update on the COVID-19 situation:

ETS was launched in September 2019. It is a business class coach that comes with onboard meals and service attendants:

6 Unsettling Truths About Corruption In Malaysia Uncovered By Sarawak Report In One Week

Amidst the furore surrounding PM Najib Razak's alleged siphoning of funds from the debt-ridden 1MDB, Sarawak Report has been quite relentless in publishing 'exclusive' reports claiming widespread corruption among the people of power in Malaysia - especially over the past week.

Image via Sarawak Report

Dubbed the "Wikileaks of Sarawak", the investigative online news portal published several exposés detailing corruption in East Malaysia, such as that of Yang di-Pertua Negeri Sarawak Abdul Taib Mahmud's involvement in land grabs and Sabah Chief Minister Musa Aman's involvement in a dubious timber deal. The site gained widespread prominence when it published a series of exposés on 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB), including one alleging that financier Jho Low had siphoned US$700 million from a deal between 1MDB and PetroSaudi, which he'd initiated. Sarawak Report also ran several reports on Najib's stepson Riza Aziz detailing how he managed to get millions in funding for his film production company Red Granite Pictures.

1. It all started on 2 July, when both Sarawak Report and the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) published separate reports claiming that a total of RM42 million linked to 1MDB has been channelled into Najib's personal accounts in December 2014 and February 2015. Sarawak Report also alleges that RM2.6 billion was transferred into his private account ahead of the General Elections in 2013.

Image via The Wall Street Journal

According to Sarawak Report: "Amongst a series of key transactions it has been identified that a total of RM42 million recently flowed from a controversial company linked to 1MDB, SRC International Sdn Bhd, into the PM’s own private accounts.These personal accounts were held clearly under the name of “Dato’Sri Mohd Najib Bin Hj Abd Razak” at AmPrivate Banking in Kuala Lumpur."Read the full report here.

        sarawakreport.org

2. Four days later (6 July), Sarawak Report published a photo of Najib and his family enjoying a summer holiday in the South of France with PetroSaudi owner Prince Turki, director Tarek Obaid, and Jho Low. It was said that this meeting - alleged to be a sham in order to impress Najib - hatched the first 1MDB-PetroSaudi deal.

From left to right: Jho Low; Prince Turki, the owner of PetroSaudi; Prime Minister Najib Razak; Rosmah Mansor; Nor Ashman, the couple’s son; Tarek Obaid, the Director of PetroSaudi, and Rosmah’s daughter, Nooryana Najwa.
Image via Sarawak Report

Sarawak Report wrote, "The Malaysian couple had been led to believe that the vast yacht Tatoosh, which had been rented for the occasion to impress, was actually owned by Prince Turki, who was the owner of PetroSaudi.In fact PetroSaudi had few funds and Prince Turki, while a 7th son of the then King was no multi-billionaire in his own right.Jho Low and his business colleagues wanted the Prime Minister to think that he was investing in a major enterprise owned by a player in Saudi, linked to the Royal family, so the deal could be presented as backed by the State of Saudi Arabia."Read the full report here.

        sarawakreport.org

3. The next day (7 July), the site revealed that Singaporean investigators had traced US$530 million into an account belonging to Jho Low in Singapore. The money is believed to have travelled from Good Star Limited's account in Zurich where a bulk of the 1MDB-PetroSaudi joint venture money was received.

Image via Sarawak Report

"The 1MDB PetroSaudi joint venture bank transfers involved dollars, which has engaged the United States banking system and regulators in the matter of suspicious transfers.Also, the money was transferred from Malaysia (using 1MDB’s international bank Deutsche Bank) and into Swiss Bank accounts, which likewise brings in the Swiss authorities.Now there is increasing accumulated evidence that much of this money was then transferred to Singapore, the international banking centre on Malaysia’s own doorstep," wrote Sarawak Report. Read the full report here.

        sarawakreport.org

4. On the very same day, an exclusive interview with Pascal Najadi - the son of slain AmBank founder Hussain Ahmad Najadi - was published. Pascal is convinced that his father was gunned down in 2013 for allegedly reporting corruption at the bank he had once managed.

Pascal Najadi is now based and working in Moscow.
Image via Sarawak Report

He told Sarawak Report that on the occasion he last saw his father it was four days before he died and that Hussain had talked then about the issue which was troubling him:“My Dad then spoke about massive corruption. He also said that they [people in power] had lost the plot in the sense that they recklessly and behind their own population’s backs raked in billions of ringgit from construction, oil & gas to defence & transportation. He made a point that it's insane that they do not for one second think about the future generations, simply not."Read the entire interview piece here.

        sarawakreport.org

5. On 9 July, citing insider information, Sarawak Report revealed that a baffling RM2 million has been deposited into a bank account - reported to have belonged to Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor a.k.a. Najib's wife and the First Lady of Malaysia - in 8 different occasions between February and April 2015

Image via Sarawak Report

"According to documentation related to the 1MDB related enquiries, between 10th February and 23rd April 2015 a gentleman called Roslan Bin Sohari entered the central branch of the bank in Kuala Lumpur on eight occasions.On these visits he deposited a round total of RM2,000,000.00 into the account number 1000 2000 0058, which investigators have reported as belonging to “Rosmah Binti Mansor (Datin Sri)”According to the record (above) the deposits into the account were made by the account owner’s ‘personal assistant’," Sarawak Report wrote. Read the full story here.

        sarawakreport.org

6. Roslan bin Sohari denied working for the PM and his wife. He'd also pulled down his Facebook account soon after the story was published, but Sarawak Report retained some screenshots from before the account was wiped and released evidence of his involvement with the couple, including travel photos that place his at the same place and time as the PM and/or his wife.

Image via Sarawak Report

"When journalists (from Malaysiakini) called on the handphone number recorded by the bank he denied he knew anything about the matter. He also denied he worked for the Prime Minister and his wife.Yet, our research shows that Roslan Sohari’s own data on social media tells a very different story and it links him inextricably to the Prime Minister himself.All his snapshots [on Facebook] from different parts of the world on different dates perfectly match the official travel arrangements for the man who was cited as his boss on the Facebook site before it was removed," wrote Sarawak Report. Read the full report here.

Meanwhile, Lester Melanyi, who claims to be a former journalist of Sarawak Report, has released the second part of his video exposé over the whistleblower site's articles on 1MDB. Read the key takeaways from Melanyi's video exposés so far:

[VIRAL] Facebook User Celine Yap Says She Was A Victim Of A Road Bully

Facebook user Celine Yap recalled her experience with a road bully on social media

"I was a victim of a bully. I was threatened, assaulted and my car was damaged."

I was a victim of a bully. I was threatened, assaulted and my car was damaged. A Malay man and his wife with two small kids came out from this Alza. I was parked beside this car.

        facebook.com

"The Man swing open his car door and hit my car very hard. The impact made my car shake. I lightly honked the guy to make him aware of my presence."

The Man swing open his car door and hit my car very hard. The impact made my car shake. I lightly honked the guy to make him aware of my presence. The wife saw what happened and said "Bang, pintu. "

        facebook.com

"He then closed the door and swing it open a second time and hit my car harder this time and said "OOOPS! " sarcastically."

He then closed the door and swing it open a second time and hit my car harder this time and said "OOOPS! " sarcastically. He then came to my window and shouted sarcastically, " SORRY AH!! SORRY AH!!" He then walked away and stared back at me and said " kurang ajar."

        facebook.com

"His wife just stood there and laughed. I was so angered, I stayed in the car to get a hold of my emotions."

His wife just stood there and laughed. I was so angered, i stayed in the car to get a hold of my emotions. After two minutes, he came out of A&W and went back to his car.

        facebook.com

"He again, Swing open his car door and hit my car very hard! For the THIRD TIME!!! Every ounce of me wanted to swing my door open really hard and dent the crap out of his car."

He again, Swing open his car door and hit my car very hard! For the THIRD TIME!!! Every ounce of me wanted to swing my door open really hard and dent the crap out of his car. But I controlled myself and got out of my car, took this picture and checked my car for damages. He then wind down his window and said " oh, calar ya? Kereta you Sudah buruk lah! Kalau kereta I langgar kereta you, bumper you pun jatuh! So tak payah la nak buat hal besar sangat." In anger, I replied " Sudah calar you nak bayar ke?!"

        facebook.com

"He then wind up his window, knowing I was standing in front of his wing mirror, he still reversed, and his wing mirror hit my right arm, throwing me to the left, hitting my own car."

He then wind up his window, knowing I was standing in front of his wing mirror, he still reversed, and his wing mirror hit my right arm, throwing me to the left, hitting my own car. He then showed me the thumbs up sign as if saying "Good for you!" His wife, yet again, sitting in the back seat, laughed as the encouraging his acts. I was so angered! I felt bullied, discriminated, weak, and helpless.

        facebook.com

"Just because I am a lady, and I am petite, doesn't give anyone at all the right to treat me this way!"

Just because I am a lady, and I am petite, doesn't give anyone at all the right to treat me this way! I believe no human deserves to be treated as such, despite of your status, color, or gender. Many Malaysians would let this pass. "Aiyah! Small matter only!" But it isn't to me! U would not understand the emotions that I had to go through until you experience it yourself. I will see this through and make sure I get the justice that I deserve.

Tak Perlu 'Toy' Mahal, Bagi Anak Kecil Main Sticker Murah Pun Elok Untuk Rangsangan Otak!

Bila ada anak kecil ini, waktu masuk kedai mainan pasti akan buat ibu atau bapa sampai jadi rambang mata sebab tidak tahu permainan apa untuk dibeli

Image via Kedai Mainan Singapore Street,Seremban

Boleh jadi semua permainan pun nak beli kerana semuanya nampak menyeronokkan. Bukan itu sahaja, ibu dan bapa pasti ingin membeli sesuatu permainan yang boleh merangsang perkembangan minda anak-anak kecil yang sedang membesar namun kadangkala boleh jadi mahal harganya.

Image via Busy Toddler

Walau bagaimanapun tahukah anda terdapat satu benda yang jauh lebih jimat harganya tetapi masih mampu memberikan impak positif kepada anak-anak kecil ini?Benda yang dimaksudkan itu adalah sticker!

Image via Google

Menerusi satu perkongsian di laman Facebook, seorang lelaki bernama Najmi Nawawi telah menjelaskan kebaikan memberi anak kecil bermain dengan kertas pelekat atau sticker.Menurutnya, meskipun sticker dianggap benda biasa buat orang dewasa namun begitu ia sebenarnya bagus untuk pergerakan badan serta perkembangan minda anak-anak kecil. Bahkan, bermain dengan sticker sahaja mempunyai 5 kelebihan utama.

Baca perkongsian penuh Najmi Nawawi di bawah:

Anak suka main STICKER? Ianya satu benda yang tersangat bagus. Lagipun sticker bukanlah mahal. Aku biasa beli dekat DIY memang harganya tersangat murah, seringgit pun ada dan boleh dapat banyak terus.Aku masih ingat kata salah seorang Occupational Therapist kami, katanya sticker boleh jadi alat yang sangat membantu, bahkan dianggap sebagai senjata rahsia yang boleh digunakan oleh mereka para OT untuk bentuk perkembangan anak-anak.

1. Bagus untuk motor halus

Image via Google

Bukan senang untuk mencabut sticker yang melekat dekat plastik itu. Hujung jari yang halus itu diperlukan untuk memastikan sticker berjaya dicabut dengan sempurna. Bahkan untuk sesetengah anak, ianya sangat sukar walaupun nak pegang hujung kertas yang nipis. Itu belum lagi kita bercerita tentang size-size sticker yang kadang-kadang itu tersangat kecil, sampaikan orang dewasa pun belum tentu boleh cabut.

2. Koordinasi tangan

Image via Google

Semestinya, sebab anak akan gunakan kedua-dua tangan mereka untuk membuka sticker. Satu tangan untuk pegang buku sticker dan satu lagi untuk mencabut sticker. Ini ialah satu latihan yang sangat baik untuk koordinasi tangan kiri dan kanan. Tangan dominan dan tangan kedua mereka agar dapat berkoordinasi dengan sempurna.

3. Kemahiran visual dipertingkat

Image via Google

Bukan semua sticker yang dibeli akan diminati anak kita. Katakan kita beli buku sticker yang ada dekat DIY tadi, pastinya anak akan scan satu per satu terlebih dahulu sebelum membuat pilihan sticker mana yang mahu dimain. Kalau ada sticker, jenis yang kena padankan seperti pilihan warna dan bentuk pastinya lebih membantu mempertingkatkan daya visual anak-anak.

4. Eksplorasi daya sensori

Image via Google

Sticker datang dengan kepelbagaian jenis dan tekstur. Ada yang jenis kembung dan licin, anda yang jenis rata dan kasar, ada juga yang jenis manik-manik dan macam-macam lagi. Setiap daripada semua jenis ini dapat membantu anak-anak belajar mengenal semua tekstur yang ada dan seterusnya membantu perkembangan daya sensori dengan baik.

5. Kiri dan kanan

Image via Facebook Najmi Nawawi

Anak-anak biasanya perlu ambil masa untuk belajar kenal yang mana kiri dan yang mana kanan. Itu yang sampai kasut pun boleh tertukar kasut kiri dan kasut kanan. Dengan sticker, kita dapat bantu mereka kenal dan bezakan kiri dan kanan. Contoh, tampal satu sticker di pipi kiri, dan satu lagi di pipi kanan. Tampal juga satu sticker di tangan kiri dan lagi satu sticker di tangan kanan. Begitulah mereka akan belajar mengenal kiri dan kanan.

Selain daripada lima yang aku huraikan ini, sebenarnya ada banyak sangat lagi kelebihan kalau bagi anak main sticker

Seperti dapat membantu anak dengan kemahiran membaca, menyusun, berbahasa, kreatif, inovatif, keyakinan diri, sosial, dan macam-macam lagi.p/s : Jangan pandang rendah terhadap kelebihan bermain sticker! Ala kita yang dewasa ini pun suka main sticker dekat fb komen tu apa.

Penulis yang dah tua ini pun masih suka main sticker! :D

The new directive affects the 5,000 men working at the state administration office in Darulnaim Complex and other local government offices

"They have to wear black songkok every Thursday during office hours," Tengku Azmi said, as quoted by Free Malaysia Today, adding that this was in line with efforts to promote the state's Islamic image.

The demand for songkok has been decreasing over time, leaving songkok-making a dying art:

Photos of the immigration queues at the Suvarnabhumi and Don Mueang International Airports went viral earlier this year as tourists spent up to five hours lining up to get their passports processed. While delayed flights and staff shortage were cited as the causes for the long processing time, incorrect information on the arrival and departure cards were also to blame. So make sure that you fill in the correct information on your cards. There's also a special lane for tourists holding passports from ASEAN countries, and the queue is usually shorter than the other counters'.

3. Get the AIS tourist sim as they have the fastest 4G internet speed

There are three main telcos in Thailand, all of which offer special tourist sim with similar data packages. However, many travellers recommend AIS as it has the fastest internet speed among the three. At THB299 (about RM37.30), you'll get eight days of unlimited data with a quota of 2.5GB at maximum speed. You can get this at both Suvarnabhumi and Don Mueang airports. Check out their other packages here.

However, if you're planning to spend some time in areas outside Bangkok like Lopburi and Phetchabun, then a tourist sim from TrueMove would be a better choice. Their price and data package is the same as AIS', but TrueMove has wider coverage across Thailand.

4. Take the Airport Rail Link or airport buses for the cheapest trip to the city, from as low as THB15 (about RM1.87) per person

Image via Wikipedia

Suvarnabhumi AirportThe cheapest and most convenient way to get to Bangkok city is through the Airport Rail Link, which will cost you only a maximum of THB45 (about RM5.60). Phaya Thai is the train's last stop, which is located in the city's central area. Alternatively, you can also take the Bor Khor Sor buses if your hotel is located in the Ekkamai, Sukhumvit, or Chatuchak areas. Fares start from THB52 (RM6.47), you may refer to this website for the other fares.

Don Mueang AirportThere are four buses that go into Bangkok city centre which only cost THB30 (about RM3.73) or THB50 (about RM6.22), depending on the route. Here's the list of destinations:- Bus A1 stops at the Mo Chit BTS station, THB30.- Bus A2 stops at Victory Monument, THB30. - Bus A3 stops at Lumpini Park, THB50. - Bus A4 stops at Khao San Road, THB50.

5. Use Grab if you need to go somewhere without a train station

Some taxi drivers don't charge by the meter, especially during peak hours. Grab is the better and safer option, since it offers services like the usual GrabTaxi, GrabCar, and even GrabBike. There's even a food delivery option on the app called GrabFood!

6. Get a Rabbit card

The easiest way to travel around Bangkok is by train, so it's highly recommended that you get one of these. The Rabbit card is like our Touch 'n Go - it's a smart card that allows for cashless transaction on the BTS trains, BRT buses, McDonald's, and a few other restaurants. The ticket machines at the train stations only accept coins and the queue to get tickets can get quite long during peak hours, so having this card really helps. You'll need to pay THB100 (about RM12.44) for the card, which comes with a five-year validity period. There are two ways you can store value into your Rabbit card:1. Top up your card like how you do for your Touch 'n Go back at home. Note that the minimum top up value is THB100. 2. Purchase a 30-day trip plan, starting from THB465 (about RM57.86) for 15 trips. This plan only applies for trips taken on BTS trains, and is valid for trips taken within 30 days from the day you first use your Rabbit card. You can check out their other 30-day plans here.

7. The most important Thai phrase you need to learn for shopping is "Lod dai mai?"

Image via Travelog

Which translates to: "Can you give a discount?" If the seller is fine with it, then he or she will reply "dai"; while no is "mai dai". Remember not to go overboard with the bargaining, and always say "kob khun krup / kha" (which means "thank you").

8. Change your ringgit to baht at Superrich Thailand or SuperRich 1965

Image via Dave's Travel Corner

If you ever run out of baht after all that shopping, you can exchange your ringgit for more baht at any SuperRich 1965 (orange) or Superrich Thailand (green) booth. They offer the best rates for ringgit, Singapore dollars, and US dollars. Some travellers found that it's more worth it for you to change currencies in Thailand than in Malaysia.

Image via TripAdvisor

Here are some of the popular places where you can find these money changers:- Superrich Thailand: Suvarnabhumi International Airport, Asiatique, Emporium Shopping Centre, Siam Paragon, and the Chong Nonsi BTS station. - SuperRich 1965: Asok BTS station and Siam Square.You can click on their names to check for their full list of branches.UPDATE | 29 March 2019According to a report in Coconuts Bangkok, a Superrich chain located inside the Central Festival EastVille mall in Bangkok's Lat Phrao district allegedly gave a Thai woman counterfeit bills worth USD900 when she went to exchange Thai Baht.SAYS readers are advised to practice caution when visiting a Superrich chain.

9. Be at the airport at least three hours before your scheduled departure time

Image via Shutterstock

As mentioned earlier, the immigration queue entering and exiting Bangkok was said to be one of the longest in the world. Some tourists even missed their flights earlier this year due to the long processing time at the Suvarnabhumi International Airport. It's better to be at the airport slightly earlier just in case there's a huge crowd leaving Bangkok. Trust us, nothing is worse than missing a flight.

Wanita Bertudung Dilarang Bekerja Bahagian 'Frontdesk' Di Hotel Antarabangsa Di Malaysia

Baru-baru ini, Majlis Rangkaian Kesatuan Sekerja Antarabangsa Malaysia (Uni-MLC) mendedahkan terdapat aduan daripada kakitangan hotel mengadu  mengenai diskriminasi terhadap pekerja wanita Islam yang diarahkan menanggalkan tudung mereka

Memetik laporan Astro Awani, larangan yang sama turut dikenakan pelajar yang menghadiri kursus perhotelan dan pelancongan apabila mereka cuba memohon latihan amali.Disebabkan itu, sesetengah pekerja tidak mempunyai pilihan selain menanggalkan tudung mereka semasa bekerja dan memakainya semula selepas waktu kerja.

Image via www.expedia.co.uk

Bagaimanapun, Persatuan Hotel Malaysia (MAH) mempertahankan tindakan hotel berkenaan dan berkata ia adalah sebahagian daripada dasar antarabangsa dan digunapakai sekian lama.Presidennya Cheah Swee Hee berkata, setiap hotel terutamanya hotel antarabangsa di Malaysia mempunyai standard operasi (SOP) dan polisi syarikat yang ditetapkan."Kita tidak boleh gunakan ayat diskriminasi (isu larangan tudung). Ia kerana syarikat ada polisi masing-masing. Jadi, ada banyak hotel juga menerima mereka yang berhijab."Ia lebih kepada polisi dan SOP yang digunakan hotel di seluruh dunia. Ia bukan (Islamophobia) kerana sudah dibuat sejak awal lagi. Jadi, mereka ada SOP,” katanya.

Beliau menambah, terdapat banyak peluang pekerjaan lain untuk pekerja Islam termasuk bekerja di bahagian belakang atau memilih untuk bekerja dengan hotel yang menggabungkan tudung dalam pakaian seragamnya

Masalahnya apabila semua orang mahu menyertai jenama hotel global 5 bintang, tetapi mereka tidak mahu mengikut dasar seragam yang merupakan standard di seluruh dunia, " katanya seperti yang dilaporkan The Star baru-baru ini.Isu itu juga telah mendapat perhatian Naib Presiden PKR, Nurul Izzah Anwar yang mendesak kerajaan khususnya Kementerian Pelancongan agar menarik balik lesen hotel yang melaksanakan polisi melarang wanita bertudung bekerja di bahagian  perkhidmatan pelanggan (frontdesk).

Image via Nurul Izzah/Twitter

Ahli Parlimen Lembah Pantai itu memberitahu bahawa kerajaan perlu tegas dalam perkara ini bagi memastikan tiada syarikat yang mengenakan  polisi bersifat diskriminasi terhadap amalan agama.“Jika sememangnya larangan pekerja bertudung merupakan polisi syarikat terutamanya hotel antarabangsa, kementerian pelancongan harus mempertimbangkan untuk menarik kembali lesen mereka untuk beroperasi.“Kerajaan harus jawab bagaimana mereka membenarkan hotel antarabangsa untuk melakukan diskriminasi terhadap amalan agama," Nurul Izzah dipetik sebagai berkata oleh The Malaysian Insight.

Sementara itu, Ketua Penerangan Pas Nasrudin Hassan berkata perkara itu tidak seharusnya berlaku di negara ini yang menjadikan Islam sebagai agama persekutuan, lapor Astro Awani

Beliau menganggap, larangan terhadap wanita muslimah memakai tudung sekalipun hanya waktu mereka bertugas adalah suatu tindakan yang boleh dilihat mencabar sensitiviti umat Islam.Beliau sendiri tidak pernah melihat larangan serupa ketika berada di luar negara."Umat Islam sendiri tidak bebas untuk mengamalkan ajaran Islam di dalam negara sendiri semata-mata alasan polisi antarabangsa sedang hotel-hotel tersebut beroperasi dalam negara ini," katanya.

Dalam pada itu, Presiden The International Women’s Alliance for Family and Quality Education (WAFIQ), Dr Rafidah Hanim Mokhtar memaklumkan pihaknya menerima empat aduan secara langsung dan puluhan rintihan di laman Facebooknya

“Ia adalah diskriminasi terhadap masyarakat kita dalam pengambilan kerja mahupun latihan amali. Saya akan panjangkan hal ini diperingkat kementerian,” katanya melalui WhatsApp kepada The Malaysian Insight.Syukri, seorang pengurus banquet hotel di Kuala Lumpur mengakui amalan larangan bertudung sudah berlaku sejak 10 tahun lalu."Masa saya kerja di sebuah hotel di KL. Saya jadi ketua banquet, memang pekerja tak dibenarkan pakai tudung sebab untuk tarikan pelanggan."Kalau ada yang memohon kerja sebagai pelayan, dikenakan syarat tidak boleh memakai tudung. Bagi mereka memakai tudung bukanlah fesyen dan tiada tarikan,” katanya yang enggan memberikan nama penuh.

Tidak tahan dengan perkara itu, beliau sejak tiga tahun lalu bertukar ke hotel yang tidak mengamalkan diskriminasi tersebut.Syukri menjelaskan isu larangan bertudung selalunya melibatkan pekerja operasi makanan (pelayan) dan barisan hadapan hotel seperti penyambut tetamu.Sementara itu, Farisha yang bertugas sebagai penyambut tetamu di hotel lima bintang di Putrajaya berkata tidak mempunyai pilihan selain membuka tudung.“Dulu memang saya tidak bertudung semasa mula-mula kerja. Tetapi selepas mempunyai anak, saya mula berhijab. Tetapi untuk berada di frontliner (penyambut tetamu) hotel ini memang tidak boleh bertudung.“Sekarang, lepas balik kerja, saya akan pakai tudung. Hanya semasa bekerja sahaja saya tidak memakainya. Apa nak buat sekarang ini kerja pun susah nak cari.“Alasan yang selalu diberi adalah kerana imej hotel antarabangsa,” kata Farisha yang sudah setahun bekerja di Putrajaya.

Tudung Ban In Hotels: Tourism Ministry, MEF, & Nurul Izzah Think It's Discriminatory

The Union Network International-Malaysia Labour Centre (UNI-MLC) recently revealed that it has been receiving a numerous complaints from Muslim female  hotel employees that their management has banned them from wearing headscarves at work

According to a report by The Star Online on Saturday, 11 November, UNI-MLC said in a statement on 6 November that the headscarf ban also affects students in the tourism and hospitality industry in Malaysia. They were allegedly told to remove their headscarves when going for internships or risk not getting hired for wearing it. Due to this, some female Muslim employees are forced to remove their headscarves when they're going to work and putting it back on after working hours. Defending the move, the Malaysian Association of Hotels (MAH) told The Star that this uniform policy is a common practice at international hotel chains. "This policy is practised in international hotel chains that use the same global standard operating procedure on uniforms in all hotel chains in their chain globally," its chairman Samuel Cheah Swee Hee explained.

Cheah pointed out that Muslims females who are interested in the hotel industry can instead opt for jobs at the 'back of the house' or work with hotels that incorporate headscarf in their uniform

"The problem is everyone wants to join the 5-star global hotel brand, but they do not want to follow the uniform policy that is their worldwide standard," he added. Stressing that the headscarf ban is not a discriminatory practice, Cheah said that the policy is in line with the standard operating procedure (SOP) that most hotels need to follow."It is a matter of policy and SOP which is used worldwide by all hotels. It is not about Islamophobia because this has been done from the beginning. "I've told students to find the type of work that allows them to wear tudung, There are also hotels that accepts workers who wear the tudung in frontline roles," he told The Malaysian Insight on 11 November.

Responding to the issue, UNI-MLC has urged the Human Resources Ministry to look into the matter and come up with a suitable guideline to ensure that there is no discrimination against female employees in the hotel industry

"By not allowing female Muslim staff to wear headscarves to work, not only does this deny them of their rights to practice their religion freely, but it also limits them from pursuing a career of their choice," said UNI-MLC president Datuk Mohamed Shafie BP Mammal. The Malaysian Employers Federation (MEF) echoes the sentiments of UNI-MLC. "I would say that barring women from wearing scarves is inappropriate. If a company wants the headscarf to blend with its uniform, for example, then the management can ask the Muslim women to match the colour of the scarf with the standard colour. "Or perhaps the management can come up with an acceptable design for the headscarf. It would then be more of a win-win situation," said MEF president Shamsuddin Bardan, as reported by Free Malaysia Today.

Meanwhile, the International Women’s Alliance for Family Institution and Quality Education (Wafiq) opined that the headscarf ban is insensitive and reflects poorly on the hotel industry's diversity and equality policy

"Given that Muslims comprise of approximately 60% of the multi-diverse Malaysian population, banning headscarves shows insensitivity towards the Malaysian culture and religious needs of its people. "Wafiq does not see wearing the hijab as a deterrence to any Muslim woman to perform her best at work any more than a person who does not wear the headscarf," said Hazlin Chong, the secretary of Wafiq. The group urged all hotel owners to take the matter seriously and understand that a headscarf ban is a blatant form of religious discrimination and Islamophobia.

PKR vice-president Nurul Izzah Anwar came down hard on the headscarf ban, saying that the government should revoke the licenses of hotels that practice the policy

Nurul Izzah said that such an action would ensure that no company in the country had discriminatory policies against religious practices. "If indeed a ban on workers wearing hijabs is a company policy especially in international hotels, the ministry should consider revoking their operation licenses. "The government has to answer how they have allowed international hotels to discriminate against religious practices," the Lembah Pantai MP told The Malaysian Insight on 11 November.

The Malaysian Tourism Ministry isn't too happy about the headscarf policy either

Deputy Tourism and Culture Minister Datuk Mas Ermieyati Samsudin

Deputy Tourism and Culture Minister Datuk Mas Ermieyati Samsudin wants the MAH to justify the ban, explaining that the policy is unfair to women who want to work in the hotel industry. "Malaysian employers should know about our Federal Constitution which is based on freedom of religion and this must be respected," she stressed, as reported by Utusan Malaysia last week.

Uber and GrabCar Drivers Are Now Required To Have Licenses To Operate

Drivers of ride-sharing services like Uber and Grabcar are now required to obtain a Public Service Vehicle (PSV) licence, as announced by the Transport Ministry on 23 April

Image via Rappler

A PSV licence allows drivers to operate a vehicle as a form of paid transportation.

Deputy Transport Minister Datuk Abdul Aziz Kaprawi said the move would provide healthy competition to the taxi industry

"We will review, and we will impose similar conditions to Uber and GrabCar as the ones on taxis by the Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD). Since Uber and GrabCar will operate under SPAD's regulations, this will also provide health competition to taxis,” he told The Malay Mail.

Earlier in January, Kaprawi also said that ride-sharing services will be required to purchase commercial insurance as regular taxis. However, that will only be implemented later this year after collecting feedback from the public.

Image via Hype.my

“We want to regulate the industry so that these vehicles are safe for people to ride in. We also want to legalise the industry as the number of phone apps will continue to grow. Malaysians find these apps very convenient in terms of securing public transport," said Kaprawi.

Taxi groups have been accusing SPAD of not acting against ride-sharing services, which they said are operating illegally. Some taxi drivers have taken matters into their own hands, by harassing ride-sharing drivers and staging protests in downtown KL.

300 taxi drivers had gathered together to stage a protest against ride-sharing apps Uber and GrabCar in front of Pavilion Shopping Centre in Kuala Lumpur in March.
