The Songkran festival is celebrated in Thailand as the traditional New Year's Day from 13 to 15 April. It coincides with the New Year of many calendars of South and Southeast Asia. The most obvious celebration of Songkran is the throwing of water upon others.

Thais roam the streets with containers of water or water guns. In addition, many Thais will have small bowls of beige colored talc sold cheaply and mixed with water which is then smeared on the faces and bodies of random passersby as a blessing for the new year.

One Politician Wanted A Fight-Free Songkran Festival That Would Be Enjoyable For All

Newin Chidchob, chairman of Buriram United football club and influential politician in Buri Ram, told Songkran revellers in front of the i-Mobile Stadium, the home stadium of Buriram United, that he wanted them to enjoy the water festival without getting into a fight.

He Warned That Offenders Would Have To Face Professional Muay Thai Fighters In A Ring He Had Already Prepared

Some have said this is a human rights violation

One local politician was fed up by the inevitable destruction caused by young gang members year after year. So he gave them an ultimatum: at the opening ceremony of the event, he declared, “This time, whoever disrupts the festival will be forced to fight three rounds with a pro Muay Thai fighter.”

        rocketnews24.com

"This Songkran, I want to promise you that there won't be fights. But if anyone of you started a fight, I've prepared a boxing ring and professional Muay Thai boxers for you and you'll have to box for three rounds and you cannot say no," Mr Newin told thousands of people in the crowd.

        bangkokpost.com

The Buriram United stadium played host to a Songkran music event. As the football club's owner, Newin considered himself the ultimate guardian of the event, and while launching the festival he warned that security guards would grab any trouble-makers and put them in a boxing ring where professional boxers waited.

Despite The Penalty, Five Young Men Didn't Take Heed, So They Were Ushered Into The Boxing Ring For The Muay Thai Face-Off...

On Sunday night, Mr Newin's guards caught five young men who were involved in fights at the fair. They were taken to the boxing ring to exchange blows against professional boxers.

        bangkokpost.com

Several hours after the start of the festival five “disturbers of the peace” were seized by event staff. They were then dragged over to a special ring set up in the centre of the event area, whereupon they were forced to go up against professional Muay Thai fighters.

        rocketnews24.com

While Some Applauded This Move, Others Reacted Negatively To It, Calling It A Violation Of Human Rights

While this spectacle may have been amusing for some, in reality there is a much darker side to the destruction caused by irresponsible parties.

        rocketnews24.com

The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) yesterday said Buriram Football Club president Newin Chidchob's idea to bring on stage the youngsters, who had reportedly been fist fighting during the club's Songkran celebrations, to fight with professional Muay Thai boxers, was a rights violation.

        nationmultimedia.com

Five brawling teenagers were dumped in the ring and quickly became virtual punching bags. Video clips were released and the rest is history. Some applauded Newin's "innovative" approach while others branded him a sadist who took the law into his own hands.

        nationmultimedia.com

Rights activists have stepped in and advised the humiliated teenagers to sue. The pro-Newin camp has hit back, calling for an end to such "pretentiousness". "We are a society so full of 'dramas'," a sports commentator quipped on the radio. "The kids were being hit by people who wore gloves and they weren't harmed anywhere near as much as their victims would have been."

[VIDEO] How A Boy From A Poor Family In Teluk Intan Beat The Odds. Today, He's A Surgeon

A less than 4 minute-long video, that tells a true story of a boy named Nara — an exceptional student and a state hockey player — and his teacher, Mr Rajendra, is wooing the hearts of Malaysians

Image via YTL Foundation

The basic premise of the story is simple. It shows us Nara's journey through his financial struggles and his humility in excellence which caught the attention of Mr Rajendra, who dedicated his own time and effort to find a way to help Nara realise his dream into a reality.

Image via YTL Foundation

It's a story about heroes who live among us, in plain sight, often overlooked but never shying away from doing what they can do to give others a chance to succeed in life, to achieve what may seem impossible, to put hope where none exists. It's a story that reminds us that more often than not, small actions can leave giant footprints.
Nara, the boy from Teluk Intan, wanted to become a surgeon. But his financial condition prevented him from further pursuing his dream. His teacher, Mr Rajendra, then took it upon himself, with the help of YTL Foundation, to ensure that Nara becomes what he had set out to be - a surgeon!
Today, a General Surgeon and Thoracic Fellow at the Ministry of Health Malaysia, Dr Nara is married with two children and pays it forward by supporting two other financially challenged students.

(Starting from far left) Dr Nara’s mother, Mr Rajendra, Dr Nara, and Dr Nara’s wife and son.

In an interview with Vulcan Post, Joel Burden and Adrian Yap, the makers behind the moving video, says it's about "paying it forward".

Heated Debate Over Use Of FINAS Act Amid Raids On Al Jazeera, Astro, And unifi TV Stations

During the parliamentary sitting yesterday, 4 August, a Pakatan Harapan (PH) lawmaker engaged Saifuddin Abdullah in a shouting match over the use of the National Film Development Corporation Malaysia (FINAS) Act 1981

Kluang Member of Parliament (MP) Wong Shu Qi pressed the Communications and Multimedia Minister regarding the use of the act against Qatari media network Al Jazeera. "Why is the FINAS Act being used against Al Jazeera International Sdn Bhd when your ministry already agreed that the act had to be amended?""We all know that FINAS is used to encourage the film industry… But now it is being used for the news sector," she stressed.

Image via Free Malaysia Today

Saifuddin Abdullah then redirected blame to the former PH administration, saying that they had not done anything to amend the FINAS Act

"20 months ago, the PH administration did not do anything," he claimed. Wong immediately fired back, "YB Minister, we did not even apply these vague rules to the news industry."The minister emphasised that his ministry had not abused their power as the Kluang MP had implied.Instead, he explains that local television news stations are required to have a Content Application Service Provider license from the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC). According to Malay Mail, authorities alleged that Al Jazeera did not acquire proper licensing to film their controversial 25-minute documentary on the plight of undocumented migrants in Malaysia, Locked Up in Malaysia's Lockdown.

Image via The Borneo Post

However, the Kluang MP did not let up and continued questioning the minister on what the appropriate use of the FINAS Act was

Wong raised her voice and protested, "But why are you using those rules to begin with?"Clearly irritated, Saifuddin Abdullah retorted: "The problem is no action was taken during the 22 months under PH."Their shouting match was interrupted by Dewan Rakyat Speaker Datuk Azhar Azizan Harun who muted both their microphones.

Saifuddin goes on to emphasise that the Perikatan Nasional (PN) government is fully in support of press freedom, but was quickly interrupted by probes into the recent raids on Al Jazeera's office

Seputeh MP Teresa Kok raised questions regarding Tuesday's (4 August) raid of Al Jazeera's office. Just as Wong chimed in, the Dewan Rakyat Speaker muted the MPs once again, saying that Saifuddin did not give way. To end the conversation, the minister recited a peribahasa phrase: "Cubit peha kiri, peha kanan terasa." By this, he meant that the government should defend Malaysians, specifically frontliners, and the country's image when 'attacked' by foreign companies.

Clockwise from top left: Saifuddin, Wong, and Seputeh MP Teresa Kok.

The feud continued on Twitter, as several opposition MPs called out Saifuddin Abdullah on his speech

Lembah Pantai MP Fahmi Fadzil, who pressed Saifuddin Abdullah late in July on FINAS licensing matters, reminded the minister that he was part of the very administration he's criticising.

Yes, who was d minister then? I'm d current minister and i'm amending it. C'mon YB, i jawab u tadi dgn berhemah. And u tweet like this? OK lah! https://t.co/qvfEPb471R— Saifuddin Abdullah (@saifuddinabd) August 4, 2020

Meanwhile, Kok took her disappointment online.

I question Communication & Multimedia Minister Saifuddin Abdullah on d action taken against Al Jazeera in Parliament. He failed to answer me & he accused me playing politics! He didn’t answer me on d raid on Al Jazeera office by MCMC too.Very disappointed! He is a changed man!— Teresa Kok (@teresakok) August 4, 2020

This comes after Al Jazeera, Astro, and unifi TV broadcasting stations were raided on Tuesday, 4 August

The police seized computers from Al Jazeera's KL bureau as part of their investigation into the documentary. Meanwhile, Astro and unifi TV's stations were searched as both services offer programming from Al Jazeera, according to Malaysiakini.A report by South China Morning Post noted that the raids were jointly conducted with MCMC.

Langsung Tak Pakai CGI Dan 4 Fakta "Wajib Tahu" Tentang Lagu 'Gerua' Dari Filem Dilwale

Dah tengok cerita 'Dilwale' yang meletup-letup ni ke belum?

Image via songs3.com

Kalau belum tengok jangan risau. Kami janji takkan dedahkan spoilers.

Dalam artikel ni kami nak cerita sikit tentang klip video lagu 'Gerua' yang seriously cun-melecun dan terlalu memukau mata memandang. Boleh nangis beb!

Image via tumblr.com

Mana taknya, lihat saja pada 3 gifs kat bawah ni. Kalau anda tak terpesona kami tak tahulah nak cakap apa. Video clip lagu 'Gerua' ni memang tersangat WOW!

Lagu 'Gerua' diterbitkan pada 18 November 2015 di YouTube dan sejak itu telah berjaya mencairkan hati sanubari serta jiwa raga manusia di planet Bumi. Kalau nak cair boleh tengok SINI:

×

Cair kan?

Image via tumblr.com

Tapi bila dah cun sangat, kritikan pun muncul. Ada orang cakap klip video ni terlalu heavy dengan graphic editing dan terlalu banyak pakai skrin hijau sampai jadi tak realistik.

Image via Sony Music India/YouTube

Persoalannya, betul ke pihak produksi video clip 'Gerua' ni pakai skrin hijau dan terlalu banyak buat graphic editing?

Image via Sony Music India/YouTube

Jawapannya TIDAK!Klip video 'Gerua' ni langsung tak ada pakai skrin hijau atau apa-apa grafik. Semua scenes dalam klip video dirakam sendiri menggunakan kamera, dan drone. Kesemuanya real dan tak ada satu pun scene yang dibuat dalam studio.'Gerua' dirakam di beberapa lokasi menakjubkan di kepulauan Iceland.

Selain dirakam di Iceland, ini beberapa fakta menarik yang anda kena tahu tentang klip video 'Gerua' mengikut scene tertentu:

1. The iceberg scene

Image via Sony Music India/YouTube

Anda tahu tak Kajol dan Shah Rukh Khan cuba sedaya upaya menahan sejuk dan act cool masa scene ni?"Kulit kami menjadi hitam dan biru semasa penggambaran scene ini akibat kesejukan. Dan kami memang terus bertukar kepada biru selepas itu. Habis saja rakaman, kami ditutup dengan lebih daripada tiga selimut, jaket, dan macam-macam lagi. Waktu itu memang terlampau sejuk," kata Kajol.

Image via Red Chillies Entertainment/YouTube

2. The aircraft scene

Image via Sony Music India/YouTube

Pakaian hitam dan oren Kajol dalam scene pesawat ini merupakan salah satu wow factor untuk lagu ini.Shah Rukh Khan menceritakan kisah di sebalik pesawat itu terkandas."Lama dahulu, kapal terbang ini terpaksa membuat pendaratan kecemasan berhampiran laut. Tak ada seorang pun yang mati atau cedera. Mujur pendaratan itu selamat dan kapten pesawat dipuji atas kecekapannya. Sejak daripada itu, pesawat ini tidak bergerak dan dah jadi macam muzium," kata Shah Rukh Khan.

Image via Red Chillies Entertainment/YouTube

3. The waterfall scene

Image via Sony Music India/YouTube

Kalau untuk scene ni pula, Kajol, Shah Rukh Khan dan seluruh krew produksi terpaksa panjat bukit sampai menggeletar kaki. Selain itu, kaki mereka berdua juga terpaksa diikat dengan tali atas faktor keselamatan. Shah Rukh Khan berkata, "Kaki kami sebenarnya diikat dalam scene ini. Kaki kami disematkan dengan tali supaya mendapat cengkaman dan mampu untuk melakukan pergerakan di atas bukit. Saya rasa itu sangat mencabar. Walaupun terdapat beberapa isu, segala langkah keselamatan telah diambil."

Image via Red Chillies Entertainment/YouTube

4. The shallow water scene

Image via Sony Music India/YouTube

Ya, memang ada shallow lake di Iceland, satu tempat yang sungguh ajaib."Rohit (pengarah) bersama-sama pasukannya telah menggunakan drone untuk merakamkan scene ini kerana kami perlu pergi jauh dari orang ramai supaya hanya ada kami berdua saja dalam scene. Perkara sama juga dilakukan ketika penggambaran di iceberg di mana hanya kami dan bongkah ais saja yang dapat dilihat. Apa-apa pun, pengalaman merakamkan lagu ini cukup tidak ternilai," ujar Shah Rukh Khan.

Image via Red Chillies Entertainment/YouTube

Ok dah. Tak nak tulis panjang lebar sebab ada banyak lagi benda best yang anda kena tahu pasal klip video 'Gerua'. Nah, tengok video ni:

11 Best Comments Overheard From People Who Were Probably On The MRT For The First Time

The new MRT routes are a hit! You might have already tried taking it for yourself.

A Look At MRT's Underground StationsHave you tried it yet? :)Posted by SAYS on Monday, 24 July 2017

The MRT now goes all the way from Sungai Buloh to Kajang through KL city centre. It has definitely make getting to the city easier for many people, what with the 50% fare discount that's going on till 31 August 2017.

Some of us have been taking the MRT to work almost everyday, and here are some of the things we've heard on the train:

1. "Wah now we can go to 1 Utama / Pavilion / MyTown everyday!"

Image via Swiss Miss (Edited)

FINALLY. No need to switch to Monorail or drive 24km from Cheras.

2. "Eh I can take MRT to Taman Pertama to see you now!"

Image via MRT

Most of the aunties say this.

3. "Air-cond is so cold."

Image via Tenor

Especially true if you take the MRT in the morning.

4. "Ha? No driver? Safe or not?"

Image via Bernama

Now that makes me think...

5. "OMG so high up..."

Image via Second Drop

Yeah, the elevated tracks are pretty high up.

6. "Aiyoh, so dark..."

Image via NCC 651 / YouTube

7. "Feels like Singapore."

Image via The Malay Mail Online

They got MRT, now we also got. :D

8. "So fast!"

Image via Wow Malaysia

It takes an average of three minutes from one station to another.

9. "Nowadays people so lucky. Last time, where got train?"

Image via Bernama (Edited)

Memang untunglah sekarang.

10. "All the young people should stand."

Image via Second Drop

This was actually said by a seven year old girl on a not-so crowded MRT. A lady got up to give her seat to the little girl. So, commuters are generally kind enough to give up their seats to the elderly, pregnant ladies, and ladies carrying young children.Or else... the RapidKL Facebook admin will come after you.

11. "The toilets quite clean right?"

Image via Skyscraper City

We know right! So rare to see clean public toilets.

Do you take the MRT too? Share the other things you heard onboard with us in the comment section!


Anthony Loke Had The Perfect Response To PAS MPs Who Said Cabin Crew Uniforms Are Too Sexy

Transport Minister Anthony Loke has one piece of advice for those who find female flight attendants' uniforms too sexy - "just don't look at the stewardess"

Image via Zulfadhli Zulkifli / New Straits Times

The issue was brought up in Dewan Rakyat yesterday, 1 August, when PAS MP Datuk Che Abdullah Mat Nawi remarked that uniforms worn by air stewardesses of Malaysian airlines are too revealing when compared to airlines from other countries. In response, Loke was reported to have said, "I don’t have a comment on this because whether it is revealing or not, then the eyes should stray away from looking at the stewardess.""This is a subjective matter. Just don’t look at the stewardess," he added.

Loke also said that airline companies are free to make decisions regarding flight attendants' uniforms as long as the outfits do not hinder cabin crew from carrying out emergency evacuations and suit their corporate image

Image via Asia Finest

According to Free Malaysia Today, the minister clarified that there are no new policies on the uniforms at the moment when PAS MP Siti Zailah Yusoff asked if revealing outfits meet airlines' safety requirements. Another PAS MP also questioned if Malaysia Airlines are planning to introduce a new dress code policy that will allow Muslim air stewardesses to wear headscarves, to which Loke said that he will bring up the matter with the airline. Loke added that the iconic Baju Kebaya, which has been worn by Malaysia Airlines stewardesses since 1986, showed Malaysia's cultural identity to tourists travelling with the airline.

This is the second time the issue has been brought up in Parliament.
In December 2017, two BN lawmakers complained that AirAsia and Firefly's uniforms were "too revealing" and does not reflect well on the country's Islamic values.

Image via Low Yat Forum

New Straits Times reported Senator Datuk Abdullah Mat Yasim to have said that the "revealing" uniforms can arouse passengers, especially young people. Senator Datuk Hanafi Mamat, who is also Kelantan UMNO secretary, also opined that female flight attendants should wear syariah-compliant uniforms as tourists may get the wrong impression of Malaysia if "our flight attendants dress up sexily and disrespectfully".

Do you think the uniforms of flight attendants of Malaysian airlines should be revamped? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below!

Aside from Malaysia Airlines' iconic Baju Kebaya, AirAsia flight attendants' bright attire is also becoming a familiar sight. In fact, it was a pretty prominent feature in a Korean drama in 2016:

                Whoa, AirAsia Is Starring In A New Hit Korean Drama!

Pada zaman nenek moyang kita dahulu, keseronokan dan keindahan hidup berjiran menjadi satu perkara yang sangat penting. Mereka hidup aman damai tanpa pergaduhan.

Boleh dikatakan kemesraan antara jiran tetangga amat erat. Jika ada kenduri atau kematian, pasti berduyun-duyun orang kampung akan hadir.Namun, pada zaman milenia ini, adab dan kemesraan dalam berjiran tidak sama seperti dahulu, malah kian pudar dan bertukar 100 peratus.Itu yang terjadi kepada seorang wanita ini apabila apabila dinding rumahnya diketuk jiran berkali-kali sambil meracau seorang diri pada pukul 3 pagi.Tonton video penuh di bawah:

Menurut Azie dalam posting di TikToknya, jirannya yang lebih mesra disapa sebagai ‘Aunty’ itu pada mulanya mesra dan rajin bersembang.“Tetapi, selepas sebulan kami duduk sini, Aunty lapor pula dekat jiran-jiran lain, katanya kami suka buat bising sehinggakan dia tak boleh tidur malam.“Selepas itu, keadaan jadi semakin teruk. Kira-kira tiga minggu lepas, polis datang ke rumah kami kerana terima aduan bunyi bising daripada ‘aunty’ tersebut,” kongsinya.

Polis sampai datang rumah berkali-kali sebab dapat aduan daripada jirannya yang mengatakan rumahnya ada bunyi 'bising'

Azie berkata, pada waktu itu mereka sekeluarga baru sahaja pulang berkhemah. Lebih menghairankan, Azie sendiri tidak pasti daripada mana datangnya bunyi bising kerana tidak ada sesiapa yang tinggal di rumah mereka pada malam tersebut.“Nasib baiklah, polis tidak ambil apa-apa tindakan sebab memang kami tidak pernah buat bising.“Tetapi, malam tadi, kami terjaga pukul tiga pagi disebabkan bunyi ketukan pintu yang sangat kuat. Kami ingatkan jiran sebelah kanan yang ketuk sebab tertinggal kunci.“Alangkah terkejutnya kami apabila melihat ‘aunty’ tadi mengetuk dinding rumah kami dengan kayu sambil meracau-racau. Katanya, lu orang mau mati, saya orang tua tak takut mati,” katanya.Tambah Azie lagi, bunyi bising itu berlarutan sehingga subuh. Tidak tahan dengan bunyi ketukan yang kuat, suami Azie bertindak menelefon polis.“Selepas subuh baru polis datang, polis pun tak tahu nak buat apa sebab dia orang tua. Katanya, ‘aunty’ nak kami pindah. Masalahnya, kami tak kacau orang pun dan polis tu cakap, lain kali kalau dia buat lagi siram air,” katanya.

A Child Suffered Severe Allergic Reaction After Smelling Peanuts Onboard SIA Flight

In an almost fatal case of anaphylaxis, a three-year-old boy suffered severe allergic reaction towards peanuts onboard an SIA flight

According to a report by Australian Broadcasting Corporation, the child was travelling with his parents to Melbourne from a holiday to Thailand last Wednesday.His parents had asked Singapore Airlines (SIA) for a nut-free meal for him, as he suffers severe allergic towards peanuts, a condition known as anaphylaxis.However, while the airline provided them with the special meal they had requested for their son, the airline didn't expect other passengers to be served peanuts as a snack.After hundreds of packets of peanuts were opened at once, the mist and smell from the nuts spread around in the cabin, making the three-year-old extremely sick.He started vomiting, telling his parents that he doesn't "feel good".

His eyes started to swell and he couldn't speak properly

The little boy's condition made other families sitting nearby to panic."The family behind us, the mother was quite traumatised because she felt that she had caused it, and her children and she kept apologising," the boy's mother told ABC.The SIA flight was less than an hour into its seven-hour flight.However, considering how the whiff of peanuts in the cabin air was reportedly strong enough to have caused the boy to suffer a potentially fatal allergic reaction, SIA flight crew then removed all peanut packets from the area. And after being made aware of the situation, they also suspended the service of peanuts in the economy section.

Fortunately, though, they were carrying four pens of adrenaline and other anti-allergy medication, which helped save their son

Meanwhile, Singapore Airlines has apologised to the family "for the distress they experienced during their flight".The SIA has reportedly said that they would be "reviewing this incident."

Following the incident, the family has requested Singapore Airlines and others to stop serving peanuts to passengers onboard

"All they have to do is just stop serving peanuts and there are so many snacks," the family was quoted saying by ABC, which added that the family has lodged a formal complaint with the airline."Obviously, we can't body search everyone for peanuts and stop everyone bringing peanuts onto the plane. But if you're knowingly serving hundreds and hundreds of packets of peanuts at one time in a plane where there is almost certainly going to be someone who has an allergy, that's just careless and irresponsible and potentially fatal."

Animal Clinic Waste Found At Sungai Gong Raises Fear About Spread Of Infectious Diseases

Clinical waste suspected to be from a private veterinary clinic was found dumped at the riverbank of Sungai Gong in Rawang, Selangor

The animal clinic waste was found yesterday, 3 October, by volunteers of a gotong-royong programme who were building a trail at the Sungai Gong, according to a report in Bernama.

The waste could spread infectious diseases to the local community

According to Department of Environment (DoE) director-general Norlin Jaafar, it is suspected that a clinic nearby is responsible for the waste, which is polluting the river and could also spread infectious diseases."I have directed Selangor DOE to take the evidence to the Chemistry Department for investigation so that action could be taken against the offender," she was quoted as saying.Norlin said the investigation can be carried out under Section 34B of the Environmental Quality Act 1974 and Environmental Quality Regulations (Scheduled Wastes) 2005, which provides for five years' imprisonment and a fine not exceeding RM500,000 upon conviction.

Sepang deputy district police chief SUPT Md Noor Aehwan Mohammad told Harian Metro, "The 65-year-old woman who works as a cleaner was found dead at the intersection entering Kampung Baru Dengkil and Taman Baiduri Dengkil."

Perhilitan Wants You To Stop Sharing Videos Of Wild Animal Sightings Coz Of Poachers

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

The Wildlife and National Parks Department (Perhilitan) has advised people to not share videos of wild animal sightings on social media as they give an opportunity to irresponsible parties such as poachers

According to Perhilitan Terengganu director Loo Kean Seong, sharing wildlife sighting videos on social media with details such as location and time they were spotted only gives an opportunity to poachers.Loo said these videos should instead be sent to his department for further action and monitoring.

Loo claimed that sharing such videos have negative effects

"Perhaps the intention is for others to be careful with the existence of wild animals around the location but there are negative effects of sharing (these videos) on social media and this must stop," he said.

Image via Free Malaysia Today

The Perhilitan advisory comes after a 33-second video of a tiger being spotted by a driver in Paka went viral on social media last night

The blurry clip was posted by a man who claimed to be in Santong, Paka near Dungun. He managed to record the tiger coming out of the bushwa and then crossing the path used by the villagers.

Screenshot from the video.
Image via Berita Harian

Loo said that they have yet to receive a report about the sighting

He also advised people who come across a tiger to keep a safe distance. According to Loo, there is the possibility of the wild animal acting aggressively and so if they want to take a video, just do it from a safe distance and report it to Perhilitan to facilitate monitoring.

Earlier this month, Perhilitan shot and killed a tiger:

                Perhilitan Rangers Fatally Shoot A Tiger In Kelantan After It Killed An Orang Asli Man

The three-year-old male tiger weighed about 120kg. Authorities did not say if it was a Malayan tiger.

Dipersilakan Makan Dengan Senang Hati, Pasangan Ini Buka 'Rumah Makan Percuma' Untuk Semua

Siapa je tak suka benda percuma kan? Lebih-lebih lagi kalau makanan. Apa taknya, kalau dah dapat makan free, memang bestlah.

Image via GIPHY

Masyarakat kita pula memang pantang dengan dua benda ni, 'makan dan percuma'. Tak kiralah sama ada yang kaya atau miskin, tua atau muda, semua suka free food.

Baru-baru ini, tular di media sosial mengenai sebuah restoran di Alor Setar, Kedah yang menyediakan makanan percuma kepada para pelanggannya

Menurut laporan, prihatin dengan nasib segelintir masyarakat yang terkesan akibat penularan pandemik Covid-19, seorang usahawan berjaya dan isterinya mengambil inisiatif membuka ‘Rumah Makan Percuma’, untuk menyediakan makanan secara percuma kepada golongan yang memerlukan.

Image via Sinar Harian

Jaffri Ahmad, 56, berkata beliau dan isteri Mazlina Makaruddin, 53, memperuntukkan makanan untuk sekurang-kurangnya 200 orang sehari dan bercadang menambahnya sekiranya inisiatif itu mendapat sambutan.“Idea untuk melaksanakan inisiatif ini sudah lama, sebab setiap kali kami pergi menunaikan Umrah, kami dapati masyarakat di sana (Makkah) berlumba-lumba untuk memberi makanan percuma, kepada orang lain.“Tapi sebelum ini, hasrat ini tergendala kerana kami sibuk dengan urusan lain, tetapi apabila COVID-19 melanda negara, ramai yang susah dan saya rasa ini adalah masa yang paling sesuai, untuk laksanakannya,” katanya.

Dua orang tukang masak akan menyediakan makanan setiap hari dengan bahan utamanya adalah beras, ayam dan sayur-sayuran

Sementara itu, Mazlina berkata Rumah Makan Percuma itu yang beroperasi di premis rumah kedainya, dibuka dari Isnin hingga Sabtu bermula 12 tengah hari hingga 2 petang dan usaha itu akan diteruskan selagi ada permintaan.Gambar berikut adalah menu makanan yang disajikan oleh mereka di Rumah Makan Percuma hari ini (8 Julai 2020) :

“Saya bersama suami telah mengeluarkan modal sendiri sebanyak RM30,000 dan kami akan lihat dahulu sambutannya macam mana, kalau bagus mungkin selepas ini kita akan tambah sedikit demi sedikit jumlah orang datang makan di sini,” katanya.Dalam pada itu, Mazlina turut mengalu-alukan sekiranya ada pihak yang ingin menyumbang dalam inisiatif itu dan berharap ia akan dapat membantu terutama golongan yang kurang berkemampuan.Tonton juga video perkongsian mengenai Rumah Makan Percuma di bawah:

You Have A Startup In The Works? Producky Will Help You Launch It

Startup - this word has been thrown around so often these days. It's not a bad thing though! In fact, the Malaysia and Singapore startup scene is growing so exponentially, with many inventors going above and beyond to make their ideas a reality.

Image via Giphy

However, many startups have limited resources and connections to help them gain more exposure - this is where Producky comes into the picture!

Still in beta stage, Producky is a community-based launch pad that allows people to discover new startups around the Malaysia and Singapore region that could be their solution to their day-to-day problems. This means inventors could also put up their startups on the site to be discovered.

Image via Producky

The startups listed on Producky are divided into different categories that varies from food to transportation. You name it, they got it!

Image via Producky

Each startup has its own profile page where users can comment, feedback and ask questions

Image via Producky

For convenience, details like the website and app store links are available as well. Users can also 'upvote' their favourite startups as a sign of support.

Intrigued by the concept of Producky, we reached out to Serene, one of the founders of the site for a quick chat

Serene Gan.
Image via SAYS

SAYS: Hello! Tell us a little bit about yourself, Serene!

Serene: Hello, my name’s Serene, I’m five foot tall and I love to eat! When I’m not working, I design apps and websites. I lead Product and Growth at a startup studio called VLT Labs during the day and I am moonlighting my two-month old startup Producky. My dream is to inspire and see more young female entrepreneurs in this part of the world.

What made you decide to work on Producky? And when was it?

As a Product Manager and Growth Marketer, I get a lot of questions from startup founders on how to acquire their first 50-100 users to validate their product idea. For most startups, it is hard to get traction with no marketing budget.   I experienced this firsthand when I tried to get signups for my first startup heylaundry. heylaundry was fortunate to get onto BetaList, but I soon realised that 60% of the signups were from United States. I couldn’t do anything with them because my service offering was in the Klang Valley.It was then that I realised how awesome it would be to have something like Product Hunt or BetaList for Malaysian startups that would help startups get the traction and early feedback they needed.  While driving back the same day, I had my light bulb moment. That was how the idea for Producky first surfaced, sometime early this year.

Was Producky an individual or group effort?

I shared my idea of Producky to a couple of developer friends but they were too busy to commit time to build it. After several failed attempts trying to pitch the idea to many people, I got a little disheartened and decided to let the idea sit for awhile because nobody seemed interested enough to pursue the idea with me. Or least nobody saw it for the potential I saw it to be.  You know the saying about finding what you are looking for when you’re not looking? That happened. Just one random day I met Faiz (colleague) at my workplace. I soon found out that he was doing something like Producky on a small scale where he would post one new startup on his blog every now and then.  I told him — “Faiz, let’s do this together. It’s going to be huge, and I know we can make it happen."  This version you see of Producky was a duo effort.

What does 'Producky' stand for? How did you come up with the name?

It doesn’t stand for anything! :)   We were toying with a couple of really really lame names and I’m glad we came to decide on Producky. It’s quite memorable isn’t it?  We’re also aware that the logo looks a little more like a chicken than a duck (laughs).

Chicken or duck?
Image via Dribble

For those who don't know, tell us what is Producky?

Producky is a platform to discover the best new Malaysian and Singaporean (and very soon Southeast Asian) internet startups, everyday.

How would you describe the startup community here in Malaysia?

The startup scene in Malaysia right now is very exciting. There was something I tweeted the other day and I see that taking place at the heart of our booming startup community, and it’s super inspiring. The original tweet was by Jeff Morris Jr — "Say what you want about tech. But I’ve never met a group of people who are so willing to help each other out. It’s a wonderful thing.”  I personally think that the energy exhibited in the community is amazing. I also think that there are also quite a number of 'wannapreneurs' out there. Haha. But it’s all good. Everyone’s learning and helping from everyone and that’s a really nice and healthy spirit to have. It can only get better from here.

How can Producky help the startup community?

Thanks for asking this, Producky’s existence is all about helping the startup community.  We want to be a launchpad for new startups, a hunting ground for investors, and a discovery platform for everyone else. At the core, we want to help new startups get noticed.

What were you doing before the launch of Producky?

I was and still am a Product Manager and Growth Marketer at a startup studio. What this means is that I help entrepreneurs launch their products and do marketing for them as well.

What is the biggest hurdle you have faced? Or still facing?

Personally it would be to juggle a day job and bootstrap Producky at the same time. As a young entrepreneur, I do not have the luxury to quit my day job right away. I have to use every resource I have within my means to keep things afloat and that hasn’t always been easy.  For Producky, it would be to define an achievable roadmap for the rest of the year. We’ve grown so quickly since we launched that we have to catch up with the momentum of things. Not complaining, it is a good hurdle to have!

If you could give one advice to an aspiring startup, what would it be?

Oh, this is quite hard! I usually like to give advice once I hear out their unique situation.  But based on my observation after shipping out many startups, I have two common thoughts I usually share with budding founders. I’m a product girl at heart, so my advice are generally product-related.  Two thought(s)  — (1) if the first version of your product only needs 3 core features, build 3 and do it extremely well. Don’t build 5 just because you can. 3 excellently built features will top 5 mediocre ones anytime and (2) invest in your team. People matter. They really matter. A startup will have it’s real lows and you’ll want to work with people that would stick it out with you. And you can’t hire the best talent without parting away your equity.

What's the end goal for Producky?

To be a sustainable business. Our product is adding great value to people, but for Producky to survive, we need to think of means to sustain ourselves so that we can continue working on Producky and advance it further. We’ll appreciate all the help we can get!  We’ve got big dreams and plans to grow a team with an awesome work culture and to add meaningful value to the Southeast Asian startup ecosystem. And hopefully, that would not be too far off!

Considered the largest inhabited castle in the world and the longest-occupied palace in Europe, the Queen has increasingly used it as a royal palace as well as her weekend home.

Malaysian travellers favoured Maldives with a solid 20% of the total country votes, while Paris (14%) and Istanbul (10%) stand as second and third choices for dream honeymoon destinations. Bali, a hot island destination of relatively close proximity to Malaysia, still made it to the top five for Malaysians, even ahead of Italy.

The survey, conducted online in January and February, 2014, asked more than 15,000 Agoda.com customers to pick their dream honeymoon location from among 20 destinations. A whopping one in five travelers chose the Maldives, with the Greek Islands, Paris and Bali neck-in-neck for second place.

        agoda.com

"We know the Maldives is a popular destination for couples but we were surprised that its allure is so global. Among countries where we had more than 100 respondents, only three didn't pick it as the most popular dream honeymoon destination – The Philippines, Saudi Arabia and New Zealand," said Errol Cooke, Vice President Global Hotels.

        agoda.com

Bali is the only Asian destination in Agoda's Global Honeymoon Survey, see the full results here:

The survey also found that Europeans prefer honeymoon destinations outside their region while Asians prefer to travel within Asia

When it comes to dream honeymoons, Europeans prefer far-flung places, as 89% picked destinations outside of their region. As a group, Asians seem the least likely to venture far -- only 65% picked destinations outside of Asia.

Biasanya satu van ada 10 seat nanti dorang akan tunggu 10seat penuh baru van jalan dan akan hantar korang sampai ke hotel hatyai.• Macam kes aku aritu lain sikit, aku naik van juga tapi dari stesyen van padang besar thailand , kos dia mcm murah sikit dari mini van yg biasa korg dengar RM20/seat tu. Aku ambil kereta dr stesyen ETS padang besar, driver bawak kami ke boarder untuk imigration clearance Malaysia dan Thailand kemudian dia hntar kami ke stesyen van padang besar thailand. Kos RM30/trip (boleh naik 2dewasa 3 kanak2). So dari station van ni aku naik sampai ke hotel  hatyai dengan harga 50baht/seatUntuk transportation korang sekitar hatyai aku xdelah melarang korang nak naik tuk-tuk, tapi seeloknya korang naik grab utk menuju ke destinasi yg korang nak pegi dengan harga yg lebih terjamin. Mungkin korang nak naik tuk-tuk sekadar pengalaman korang bawaklah anak naik satu trip dr tempat makan ke hotel utk last day korang kt sana (carilah org muslim bmf).Ok tibalah masa untuk pulang dari hatyai ke padang besar, yang nak naik keretapi atau van RM20/seat boleh naik macam biasa, aku ambil kereta dari hotel terus ke padang besar macam biasa sbb anak kecil dan nak kan keselesaan supaya dorang x merengek. So untuk kereta ni biasa mereka charge 1000baht sampai imigration Malaysia. Ni contact driver +66 86 293 2475 namanya abg mukhriz, asal dari thailand tapi fasih cakap utara(senang sketlah korang nak berurusan)Haaa ni ada sket lg info, kalau korang dtg hatyai hotel xprovide iron ya, kalau bini korang jenis pakai tudung/shawl DUCK ke Ariani keee Bella Ammara keee bawaklah sendiri iron tu atau bole beli di asean night bazaar. Jangan lupa juga extension plug interntional sbb plug dorg xsama mcm kita‼
