Bagaimana Tun M Kekal Sihat & Awet Muda? Netizen Merasakan Jawapannya Ada Pada Gambar Ini!

Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad baru-baru ini membuat kemunculan semula dalam politik apabila beliau mengetuai Pakatan Harapan (PH) untuk mengakhiri cengkaman 60 tahun Barisan Nasional (BN) atas kuasa persekutuan pada Pilihan Raya Umum Ke-14 (PRU14)

Image via Facebook Mahathir Mohamad

15 tahun selepas beliau meletakkan jawatan sebagai Perdana Menteri Negara ke-4 pada 2003, Tun Mahathir kini kembali mengangkat sumpah menjadi Perdana Menteri Malaysia ke-7 pada usia 92 tahun pada 10 Mei 2018 yang lalu. Tun Mahathir, yang memegang jawatan tersebut sebelum ini selama 22 tahun, juga telah diiktiraf sebagai pemimpin terpilih yang tertua di dunia. "Pada usia 92 tahun 141 hari, beliau merupakan Perdana Menteri semasa tertua yang dilahirkan pada 20 Disember 1925," catatan yang diterbitkan di Guinness World Records, 11 Mei.

Kebangkitan semula politik Tun Mahathir ini membuatkan ramai orang merasakan bahawa beliau telah berjaya mengekalkan kesihatan dan fikirannya walaupun pada usia lanjut.
Ini membuatkan ramai yang tertanya-tanya - apakah “rahsia” beliau?

Umur 90 lebih masih kuat berjalan ingatan masih kuat tanpa masalah. Masih mampu berdiri mentadbir negara. Melihat kesihatannya membuatkan saya rasa nak kekal hidup sihat lama. Saya harap Tun M dpt kongsikan rahsia kekal sihat begini @chedetofficial— phD.. (@yunus_unus96) May 10, 2018

Salam @chedetofficial , apa rahsia kekal sihat gagah kuat sampai 93 thun ??— aizat.zulkifli (@zulkifli_aizat) May 9, 2018

Alhamdulillah, Tun M masih handsome dan sihat hingga hari ini, Tun M tak pernah pergunakan kehenseman dia tapi selalu guna kebijaksanaan dia, kut ini rahsia kekal hensem dan sihat...— Justmin77 (@Justmin771) February 8, 2018

Satu gambar yang menular di media sosial baru-baru ini seolah-olah mempunyai jawapan kepada soalan emas itu

Image via Facebook Cempedak Cheese

Gambar yang viral itu menunjukkan Tun Mahathir bersama isterinya, Tun Dr. Siti Hasmah di meja makan sebelum menjamu selera.Walaupun gambar tersebut kelihatan seperti gambar biasa, namun para netizen dengan cepat memperhatikan kuantiti nasi di atas pinggan beliau."Patutlah Tun sihat wafiat umur dah 93 tahun. Tengok nasi tu kalau kita memang tak cukup secubit tu. Sekali suap habis," tulis caption yang dikongsi pada halaman Facebook Cempedak Cheese.

Ramai netizen telah menyuarakan pendapat mereka mengenai diet Tun Mahathir

You can't even apply "berhenti sebelum kenyang" with Tun Mahathir's rice portion. https://t.co/jUqT1RZjqF— Khabir (@KhabirM) May 15, 2018

Tengok gambar @chedetofficial dinner kat rumah alahai sikit nya portion nasi. Adudu menangis tengok. Aku punya portion nasi siap menambah tak cukup. Hahaha— Alz (@cikyija) May 16, 2018

tun mahathir makan banyak tu je. allahu. aku rasa malu. mak masak sedap je aku dah balun 3/4 pinggan nasi. https://t.co/jWlbftafk3— za (@SyahizaKadir) May 15, 2018

Gambar yang viral itu sebenarnya bukanlah gambar terkini

Ia pertama kali dikongsi oleh anak sulung Tun Mahathir iaitu Datin Paduka Marina Mahathir pada tahun 2015 selepas berita tentang Tun Mahathir jatuh demam dan sakit dada muncul.Walaupun begitu, gambar tersebut telah mendapat perhatian ramai tentang pengamalan dietnya, yang mana Marina menjawab di dalam komen beliau, "Saya tidak menyedari bahawa gambar itu akan memberi inspirasi kepada anda semua untuk makan lebih sihat!"

Tun Mahathir sebelum ini pernah beberapa kali bercakap tentang bagaimana beliau menjalani gaya hidup sihat

Image via Bloomberg

Dilabel sebagai 'lelaki politik tertua di Malaysia', Tun Mahathir tetap konsisten apabila menceritakan rahsia awet mudanya.Pada tahun 2013, Tun Mahathir yang berusia 88 tahun ketika itu berkata, "Ramai bertanya kepada saya bagaimana saya berjaya bertahan selama ini, (ia terletak pada) perkara-perkara yang mudah... jangan terlalu banyak makan, jangan makan terlalu banyak,""Ianya sukar buat saya... tapi saya tidak makan terlalu banyak, saya tidak merokok dan saya tidak minum." Apabila ditanya bagaimana usianya tidak pernah melambatkan dirinya, beliau berkata,"Ketika saya ditanya tentang kesihatan saya, saya tidak merokok, saya tidak minum (alkohol), saya bersederhana ketika makan, tidak kira betapa lazatnya makanan itu."

Mahathir juga memegang kata-kata hikmah ibunya, "Ibu saya selalu memberitahu saya bahawa apabila makanan itu enak, itulah masa anda harus berhenti makan."

Mahathir is back as Malaysia's PM at the age of 92. Here's how he keeps healthy - and some advice for staying young. https://t.co/jY8rp1SUVK pic.twitter.com/kWnMrtpqXg— Bloomberg (@business) May 13, 2018

Bloomberg dalam satu laporan baru-baru ini juga mendedahkan beberapa kebiasaan Tun Mahathir mengenai bagaimana beliau mengekalkan gaya hidup yang sihat. Menurut Perdana Menteri kita, rutinnya termasuklah bangun pada jam 6.30 pagi setiap hari, berjalan kaki, berbasikal, dan menunggang kuda. Tun Mahathir juga merupakan seorang yang sentiasa mengamalkan latihan mental seperti yang beliau katakan, "Baca dan tulis. Latih otak anda."

[PHOTOS] The 20 Hard-Core Obstacles Urban Warriors Braved Through In The #ViperChallenge

In case you missed it, thousands of fitness junkies and newborn runners took up the Viper Challenge over the weekend (1 and 2 November 2014) at Sepang International Circuit

Image via Instagram: zhiiwah

For the uninitiated, the Viper Challenge is an obstacle course challenge featuring 20 unique man-made obstacles planted across a 20.79km course.

Image via ViperChallenge.com

Viper Challenge will be THE marquee obstacle-based community challenge in the region, the first of its kind in South-East Asia. Designed to test both heart and spirit of the 21st century urban warrior, stampedes of people will have to go through over 20 unique large-scale man-made obstacles, across a 20+ km course. Crawling through mud, scaling heights, battling fatigue and overcoming fears will give you the most unique outdoor experience you have ever had.

        facebook.com

Urban Warriors (a.k.a. participants) were made to crawl through mud, scale heights, and climb over walls in order to survive. Intrigued? Check out the obstacles the Warriors had to brave through:

1. A larger variation of the tyre obstacle course, the Tyre Run

Image via Instagram: syazlizazman

Image via Instagram: jnazren

2. You've heard of the Ice Bucket Challenge, but that's chump change compared to the Ice Jump Challenge. Yup, not only do they have to jump into the ice pool, they have to swim through it!

Image via Instagram: syazlizazman

Image via Instagram: polarbearneedsbeer

3. Hang onto the metal nets, or you'll find yourself immersed in muddy waters. Or just swim through the obstacle, that's fine too.

Image via Instagram: polarbearneedsbeer

Image via Instagram: jnazren

4. The Mountain Dew obstacle required participants to hold on to that narrow piece of plank to scale across the board... if you don't want to end up falling into the muddy puddle, that is.

Image via Instagram: polarbearneedsbeer

5. Warriors have to get on their elbows and knees to get through the Barb Wire Crawl

Image via Instagram: syazlizazman

Image via Instagram: polarbearneedsbeer

6. Up next, participants have to climb over a pyramid of haystacks. Looks simple, until you get close enough to see how high up the stacks are.

Image via Instagram: polarbearneedsbeer

Image via Instagram: syazlizazman

7. If you're not covered in sand and mud by now, this obstacle will make sure of that. Dubbed the Hill Slide, participants have to slide through the sand dunes to beat the obstacle.

Image via Instagram: polarbearneedsbeer

Image via Instagram: aafiqshah

8. In what is probably the most terrifying obstacle out of the 20, Warriors have to prove their mettle by jumping over burning, hot coals

Image via Instagram: amar85

Image via Instagram: iskan0504

9. For those who have managed to avoid falling into muddy waters so far, too bad. They have to wade through the Trench Pool anyway.

Image via Instagram: polarbearneedsbeer

10. Time to put those rope-climbing lessons from Pendidikan Jasmani class to good use in the vertical wall climb challenge

Image via Instagram: polarbearneedsbeer

Image via Instagram: syazlizazman

11. After traipsing through mud for the first half of the obstacle course, getting sprayed with water while going through Obstacle #11 must be a refreshing change

Image via Instagram: polarbearneedsbeer

12. They don't know it yet, but this is just the first of many walls participants have to scale and climb over

Image via Instagram: polarbearneedsbeer

13. This is one inclined wall no one can go through without solid teamwork. Leave no man (and woman) behind!

Image via Instagram: polarbearneedsbeer

Image via Instagram: syazlizazman

Image via Instagram: haneef90

14. A shorter wooden wall acts as a reprieve for participants... until they see what lies ahead

Image via Instagram: polarbearneedsbeer

15. Wrapping up the third quarter of the course is the final wooden vertical wall obstacle

Image via Instagram: polarbearneedsbeer

16. It's not just about holding on to the rings, participants have to retain a certain momentum to get through this obstacle without falling into the pool of 'teh tarik kurang manis'

Image via Instagram: polarbearneedsbeer

Image via Instagram: nhzlan

17. Another trek through a muddy trench pool before the last three obstacles of the day

Image via Instagram: polarbearneedsbeer

18. Jumping onto floating red pillows is not as easy as it seems to be. Of course, having friends to help you hold on to the next pillow can kinda prevent you from falling into the water. Again.

Image via Instagram: polarbearneedsbeer

Image via Instagram: louis_theseastar

Image via Instagram: ratussacat

19. So, you think you can fly? Warriors do not only have to climb over the net. First, they have to make the jump over the muddy trench to get to the net!

Image via Instagram: polarbearneedsbeer

Image via Instagram: i.ezuan

20. This is it - the very last obstacle to overcome. To complete the challenge, Warriors have to run up the ramp, catch hold of the rope, climb over and voila!

Image via Instagram: polarbearneedsbeer

Image via Instagram: hilarysunshine

Congratulations, you've completed the challenge! Participants who managed to survive all 20 obstacles are given a nifty medal, a certificate of participation, a "Finisher" T-shirt, as well as an epic story to tell their family and friends about taking on Asia's biggest obstacle challenge.

Tony Pua And Dr Ong Kian Ming Are Helping Out The Finance Ministry For Free

Tony Pua and Dr Ong Kian Ming are sharing their expertise with Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng as special officers to the ministry, free of charge

"We have been appointed with no pay and we are just basically helping out," Pua told The Star. He explained that their services were required for a six-month period as "The minister needs hands to help him settle down in the next few months."

Though their appointments are temporary, Ong said that the Democratic Action Party's (DAP) MPs would serve the ministry for as long as their help is needed

Image via Berita Daily

"I am glad that my past five years of going through the many financial statements of statutory boards and incorporated bodies will be put to good use," said the Bangi MP, who was previously a regional consultant in USCI Blue Ocean Strategy Consulting."We will be based at the ministry unless sent elsewhere by the Prime Minister," he added.

Pua has denied that the pair were "the brains" behind Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng's operations

Image via The Malaysian Insight

The Damansara MP, who used to be a consultant in Accenture, said that, "We have a team of people working. We have a lot of work ahead of us," The Star reported.

The DAP politicians can be seen accompanying Lim Guan Eng on his first day of duty at the Ministry of Finance:

Anwar: We Will Never Recognise The LGBT, Communism, And Secularism

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

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has stated that LGBT individuals, secularism, and communist ideology will never be recognised in his administration

In an interview with Radio Television Malaysia (RTM) for their 'Naratif Khas Bersama Perdana Menteri' (Special Narrative With The Prime Minister) programme, last Friday, 6 January, Anwar stated that the issue was only raised by certain political parties in the nation to spread lies."Sometimes, these politicians will say that if Anwar becomes prime minister, then Islam will be ruined, secularism and communism will gain a foothold, and LGBT will be recognised," he said in a statement reported by Bernama."This is a delusion. Of course, it will not happen, and God willing under my administration, this is not going to happen."

During the interview, Anwar was also asked to respond to claims of a weak administration under his leadership because coalitions in the government had to sign a cooperation agreement

The Prime Minister said the agreement had to be signed because the majority obtained at that time was too narrow. However, to prove that he gained support, Anwar brought a motion for a vote of confidence in parliament last year after he was challenged by the opposition, who questioned his legitimacy as Prime Minister."This vote of confidence motion was being challenged by the opposition. They said Anwar had no support," he said according to a report by Free Malaysia Today (FMT)."In a democratic system, the best way to prove it is through a vote of confidence or a vote of no confidence, which was not proposed. So, I submitted this (the motion) and have proven that I have strong support."On the first day of sitting, Anwar's legitimacy as the 10th Prime Minister was proven when the motion of confidence tabled by Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof was passed with a voice vote, of which more voices were in favour of him.

Image via ASEAN Briefing

When asked about the lawsuit he filed against several individuals, Anwar stated that it was because certain accusations touched on his authority as a leader

"Thousands of accusations have been made, slanders have been hurled and for decades I have accepted it but if I feel it is too much as they question my authority and credibility as a leader, then they should be taught that this freedom does not give them the freedom to slander," he added."...We use religion, then we slander, we make qazaf (accusations), I would like to ask their teachers, ustaz to teach them first before teaching others."Since taking the oath of office as the Prime Minister of Malaysia, Anwar has filed lawsuits against several individuals, including Perikatan Nasional (PN) chairman Muhyiddin Yassin, for making false accusations against him.

Here’s How HEINEKEN Malaysia Is Helping Local Bars And Pubs Through These Tough Times

This Spotlight is sponsored by HEINEKEN Malaysia.

Remember what it was like going for a drink with your buddies and unwinding after work? It's been a while since we've been able to do that... T__T

Image via Giphy

Though the Movement Control Order (MCO) restrictions are looser now, it might already be too late for some of our favourite pubs and bars. While the MCO, social distancing, and the new normal are incredibly important steps in mitigating the spread of COVID-19, the reality is that many businesses are suffering as a result.

On top of already not having a steady revenue stream for several months now, many bars and pubs have still not been able to reopen

Image via Qanvast

Many of us have the luxury of being able to work from home and still earn our usual salaries, but that's not true for entrepreneurs like bar and pub owners. Without their regular revenue, many are struggling to pay staff wages, rent, and other overheads. This makes it difficult for them to prepare to reopen.If we don't do our part to help them, it is likely that many of them will close their doors for good, noooooo! :(

In order to help our favourite bars and pubs survive these challenging times, HEINEKEN Malaysia has launched a new platform called Raise Our Bars

Image via Malaysiakini

Once the MCO is lifted, it's still going to be hard for bars and pubs to recover. That's why Raise Our Bars was created—to help them out financially. This one-stop platform makes it super easy for you to support your favourite outlet. Just look for it on the site, and then buy a voucher for a beer, stout, or cider.When the MCO is lifted, drop by your selected outlet to claim your drink. Plus, you'll even get an extra drink on the house, paid for by HEINEKEN Malaysia!

Thaddeus, the owner of Powerplant, greatly appreciates the Raise Our Bars initiative

Image via Powerplant Malaysia (Facebook)

Inspired by pojangmachas (Korean cart bars) a.k.a pochas, Powerplant is a hip Korean fusion restaurant and bar, with multiple outlets. To cope with the MCO, they are currently offering 'Netflix & Chill' delivery menus, which consists of different packages of yummy Korean food, snacks, and of course, various types of alcohol."I appreciate the kind thoughts and action of HEINEKEN Malaysia for the initiative to help bars and restaurants during this crisis. I believe the cumulative amount on Heineken's side is a substantial figure," said Thaddeus.In anticipation of the new normal, he is prepared to work closely with HEINEKEN Malaysia to develop mutually-beneficial campaigns and continue adhering to the government's SOPs.

Emily Foo, Marketing Manager of Guāng, also expressed her gratitude and gave Raise Our Bars a thumbs up

Image via GUĀNG (Facebook)

A few of the Japanese-themed restaurant & bar outlets have now reopened for dine-ins. Of course, they are making sure to follow social distancing guidelines and are working hard to create a safe environment so their customers will be able to dine-in comfortably."The programme definitely helped to drive crowds to outlets during CMCO, especially for the USJ outlet. Plus, customers tend to stay on and order more beer from menu price," said Emily.

Daniel Hackenberg, General Manager of The Social, echoed their sentiments as well, saying that Raise Our Bars is a "great initiative by HEINEKEN Malaysia to help outlets in this current situation"

Image via The Social (Facebook)

Most of the restaurant & bar outlets have reopened for dine-in, but they are still offering takeaway and delivery services as well. For the health and safety of their customers as well as their own team, they have set strict social distancing rules for dine-ins, and are also carrying out various protective practices.

More than 750 bars across Malaysia have already signed up to join Raise Our Bars, which is great to hear, as this initiative helps them in more than one way

Image via Boomerang Bistro KL,Malaysia / Facebook

Firstly, it's completely free for them to join!They'll also be getting 100% of the money from the voucher sales. This gives them some much-needed income to help pay rent and wages, as well as cover other costs.And finally, this will also help kickstart their business once the MCO is over, as people will drop by to claim their vouchers.

If you've forgotten what it's like to go out and have a drink at your favourite bar, this video will bring back all those fond memories:

×

Set to the familiar tune of 80's hit Don't You (Forget About Me) by Simple Minds, this nostalgic video cleverly calls upon us to not forget about our favourite bars and pubs. When the MCO is over, it'll be up to us to help them get back on their feet again.

The vouchers range between RM16 and RM19. They will be on sale from now until 30 June 2020, or until all vouchers have been sold.

You can buy up to three vouchers, and they can be redeemed when bars are permitted to reopen until 31 August 2020, depending on the outlet.

HEINEKEN Malaysia has committed RM1 million to support this initiative

Besides sponsoring the additional drinks, HEINEKEN Malaysia is also absorbing all associated fees and charges, so that the bars and pubs won't have to worry about any extra costs.And as mentioned earlier, 100% of what you pay for the voucher goes to the chosen bar. That extra money is exactly what they need right now, and will definitely help them loads!

When you go to redeem your vouchers, please do remember to follow the appropriate safe behaviour guidelines.
Make sure to practise these 5Cs at all times whenever you're at a restaurant or bar.

1. Check your distance - Keep a physical distance of at least one metre between yourself and other customers2. Clean your hands - Frequently wash your hands with soap and use hand sanitiser3. Cash-free payment - Use contactless payment options, such as eWallets or credit and debit cards, as much as possible4. Contact tracing - Please do provide your personal details for contact tracing purposes5. Come back later - Please do stay at home if you're not feeling well

Head on over to Raise Our Bars to support your favourite bars and pubs!

UMNO Man Thinks The Deaths Of Pakatan Harapan Reps Are A Sign From God

Yesterday, 27 February, Puchong UMNO chief Datuk Mohammed Satim Diman claimed that the deaths of Pakatan Harapan elected representatives are a sign from God

Satim Diman
Image via Malaysiakini

"He (Allah) is giving a warning," Satim was quoted as saying by Malaysiakini yesterday.Utusan Online reported that the UMNO man was present at a campaign event in Semenyih alongside Pendang Member of Parliament (MP) Awang Hashim and PERKASA president Datuk Ibrahim Ali.

Satim was referring to the by-elections held in recent months, following the deaths of a few government representatives

"Why are there so many by-elections? Because the incumbents passed away... Where are they from? Harapan," the UMNO chief said."They are not from BN. Are there any BN elected representatives who have passed away?" Satim added.

Image via Free Malaysia Today

He went on to claim that voters have not been taking signs from God following the losses suffered by BN in the Sungai Kandis, Seri Setia, and Balakong by-elections."Allah said... If (people) don't understand, then I give you Semenyih... I'll cause a death here," Satim said, according to Malaysiakini."If (people) still cannot understand this, I don't know what to say," he added.

Political secretary to the Selangor Menteri Besar Borhan Aman Shah has since called Satim out for his remarks, and urged the latter to issue an apology

Sin Chew Daily reported Borhan as saying today that Satim's remarks have hurt the families of the late politicians. "I urge Satim to take back his words and apologise to those families," Borhan said, according to Utusan Online.The four Pakatan Harapan elected representatives who have passed away are:- Mat Shuhaimi Shafiei (Sungai Kandis),- Eddie Ng (Balakong),- Dr. Shaharuddin Badaruddin (Seri Setia), and- Bakhtiar Mohd Nor (Semenyih).

Last year, UMNO secretary-general Tan Sri Annuar Musa called the by-elections triggered by the deaths of MPs a "God's gift":

Sarawak Report Claims Najib And Rosmah Used 1MDB Funds To Buy Anti-Ageing Products

In an article posted today, Sarawak Report alleged that PM Najib Razak and his wife, Rosmah Mansor had used stolen funds from a 1MDB subsidiary to purchase anti-ageing products from overseas

Image via Sarawak Report

Citing leaked documents from the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC)'s  investigations into 1MDB, the whistleblower site claims that Najib and his wife had used over RM1.15 million misappropriated from SRC International - a subsidiary of the scandal-ridden 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) - to purchase hormone-based anti-ageing products from the US.

According to the documents obtained by Sarawak Report, a cheque for RM1.154 million was made out to Datuk Sidiq bin Mohammed on 4 February 2015 for the purchase of two sets of medication worth USD159,000 (RM577,000) each

Image via Sarawak Report

When asked by investigators, Datuk Sidiq was revealed to have said that the cheque was made out for the purpose of purchasing "two sets of medication type External Plant Serum Food Application based softgel GH-9 Honey and Honey Food GH-9 Soft Gel at USD159,000 each set for the use of B1 and wife."

Wait, who exactly are "B1 and wife"? Sarawak Report strongly believes that it refers Najib and Rosmah, as the next items of expenditure were said to refer to construction works at addresses known to belong to them.

The site cited a RM100,000 cheque made out to ABS Trend Master Sdn. Bhd. via an AmIslamic Bank account on 16 February 2016 as an example.

Image via Sarawak Report

According to a note attached to the photocopied cheque, the payment was meant for "construction work at a police post unit, concrete landfills, and multi-purpose room in B1 house No 11 Jalan Taman Duta Duta Langgak KL".

As for the aforementioned Datuk Sidiq, Sarawak Report believes that they have identified the recipient of the first cheque as the Vice President of the Society for the Advancement of Hormones and Healthy Ageing Medicine Malaysia (SAHAMM)

SAHAMM, established in 2010 by "a group of doctors who had a passion towards wellness and healthy-ageing medicine", describes itself as an "independent, non-political and public interest" organisation that aims to "promote advances in healthy-ageing and preventive medicine". The organisation also claims that conventional medicine is actually "downstream medicine" that merely treats diseases with patented medicines, while Healthy Ageing Medicine is "upstream medicine"that focuses on prevention, early detection, and treatment of age-related dysfunctions.

On to the "medication" purchased for RM577,000 per pop, what kind of health supplement could warrant such a hefty price tag?
Sarawak Report suggests that the GH-9 referred to is actually the "Growth Factor 9" hormone, currently very popular with the "rich and famous" as an anti-ageing product.

Produced by Novex Biotech, 'Growth Factor-9' is typically used as an HGH releaser with a primary goal to enhance physical performance. It has been marketed as a "complex hormone antecedent" that will allow users to take complete advantage of their physicality and release their anti-ageing potential.A bottle (120 capsules) of Growth Factor-9 is priced at US99.99 each. A set costing USD159,000 would consist of approximately 1,590 bottles.

A quick search on Google unearthed a similarly named product to that recorded by 1MDB investigators - the 100% plant-based GH-9 Honey Health Food Supplement, which also has anti-ageing benefits

According to the product description, GH-9 Honey is "a food-based supplement used to stimulate the human body to maintain youth, vigour and vitality". It is also said to have the ability to give users increased energy, improved muscle tone, enhanced sexual function and performance, and improve digestion and eyesight.

"Saya tiada gambar 10 tahun lepas yang boleh dikongsi bersama untuk cabaran #10yearchallenge ini kerana masih belum memakai tudung ketika itu..." - Mizz Nina

        View this post on Instagram           I don’t have pictures I can share from 10 years ago, since I was not wearing the hijab then  As I was having my online class session last night, we were having a discussion about the #10yearchallenge and how, profound it is, if we reflect on our inner state, our faith and how we have grown as individuals. •••••••••••••••••••• In 2009, I was 29 years old, single and super focused on my solo career. I had given up on looking for a spouse and all my energy was put into performance training. Little did I know I was going to meet my to be husband at the end of 2009. Alhamdulilah, Allah united us and we married soon after. Dua’s do come true! My faith, at this time was slowly growing, since my brother had passed on 2 years earlier, I could feel it had a huge effect on my heart. Although I did not pray 5x a day, I did not close that door and connection to Allah. My advice, for those who are struggling with prayers, to just pray, even if it is 1x a day, keep going and do it for Allah, & 1 day, you will find yourself fulfilling all the obligations & even more inshaAllah My life was, all about my career, dunya & my faith, even though it may not be apparent, it was there. I was not as lost as I used to be esp in my late teens & early 20’s  but, I was still on the way to the main straight road. Alhamdulilah. Lesson :- Do not judge other people & the state of their heart! You probably had no idea that I was struggling within to be a better person, a better muslim. Encouragement is key  2009 :- I still did not know how to read Alif Ba Ta. I only memorized Al-Fatihah & 3 Qul.  I only started learning to read at 33. SubanAllah! Never would I have imagined, I would be in a totally different space 2day internally & externally, Allah guided me back to practicing Islam & now I’m studying a Ta’leem Al- Quran course @alhudainstitutesl & doing da’wah, SubhanAllah. Alhamdulilah for these blessings! Lesson :- it is never too late to learn the Quran! U need to be determined to make that change & effort for Allah Aloooot has changed and I pray that Allah will continue to guide us on the straight path and up the ladder of self improvement for life in dunya & akhirah Ameen. A post shared by  Shazrina Azman (@officialmizznina) on Jan 19, 2019 at 4:21pm PST

Bahasa:Saya tidak mempunyai gambar yang boleh saya kongsikan dari 10 tahun yang lalu, kerana saya masih tidak memakai hijab.Semasa saya mengadakan sesi kelas online saya malam tadi, kami juga telah mengadakan perbincangan tentang cabaran #10yearchallenge ini tentang bagaimana jika kita memikirkan keadaan dalaman kita, iman kita dan sebanyak mana kita telah berkembang sebagai individu.Pada tahun 2009, saya berumur 29 tahun, single dan fokus pada kerjaya solo saya.Saya telah berputus asa mencari pasangan dan semua tenaga saya dimasukkan ke dalam latihan prestasi. Sedikit yang saya tahu, saya telah bertemu dengan suami saya pada akhir tahun 2009. Alhamdulilah, dengan izin Allah kami berkahwin. Doa sudah menjadi kenyataan!Iman saya, pada masa ini perlahan-lahan berkembang, sejak kakak saya telah berlalu 2 tahun lebih awal, saya dapat merasakan ia mempunyai kesan yang besar pada hati saya. Walaupun saya tidak sembahyang 5x sehari, saya masih tidak menutup pintu dan hubungan dengan Allah.Nasihat saya, bagi orang-orang yang berjuang untuk sembahyang, terus melakukannya, walaupun hanya 1x sehari, teruskan dan lakukan untuk Allah, dan 1 hari, anda akan mendapati diri anda memenuhi semua kewajipan & lebih inshaAllah.Kehidupan saya adalah tentang kerjaya saya, dunia & iman saya, walaupun ia tidak dapat dilihat, ia berada di sana. Saya tidak seperti dulu pada masa remaja saya & awal 20 tahun tetapi saya masih dalam perjalanan ke jalan lurus utama. Alhamdulilah.Pengajaran: Jangan menghakimi orang lain & keadaan hati mereka. Anda mungkin tidak tahu bahawa saya sedang berjuang untuk menjadi orang yang lebih baik, seorang muslim yang lebih baik. Galakan adalah kunci utama.2009: - Saya masih tidak tahu membaca Alif Ba Ta. Saya hanya menghafal Al-Fatihah & 3 Qul. Saya hanya mula belajar membaca di 33. SubanAllah!Tidak pernah saya bayangkan, saya akan berada di ruang yang sama sekali berbeza pada hari ini. Allah menuntun saya kembali untuk mengamalkan Islam & sekarang saya sedang belajar kursus diploma Ta'leem Al-Quran, melakukan da'wah & perbincangan. SubhanAllah. Alhamdulilah untuk berkat-berkat ini!Pengajaran: Ianya tidak pernah terlambat untuk mempelajari Al-Quran! Anda perlu tekad untuk membuat perubahan dan usaha untuk Allah.Banyak yang telah berubah dan saya berdoa agar Allah akan terus membimbing kita pada jalan yang lurus dan meningkatkan tahap peningkatan diri untuk kehidupan di dunia & akhirah Ameen.

GrabFood Customer Requests For Food To Be Tied To Rope So He Can Collect It From Apartment

Being grounded sucks.
But one person recently came up with an innovative way to remain obedient, without getting hungry.

On 13 October, Twitter user Azhar Jamil shared a video of an interesting GrabFood request he received at a Housing and Development Board (HDB) flat in Singapore.

According to the video, he was requested to tie the food delivery to a rope before a customer 'pulled it up' to their apartment window

Image via Twitter/Azhar Jamil

He called it "one of the craziest food deliveries" he'd ever had

According to Mothership, the customer looked like he was on the sixth floor of the apartment and used a pulley to collect the food.

In the tweet, Azhar explained that the customer had supposedly requested for this because he was grounded

Customer requested pasal dia kene grounded —   (@_5foot4) October 13, 2019

And yes, he apparently did check that the food reached his customer safely.

So this is how the customer requested his order to be send! Enjoy the video  pic.twitter.com/wk3Fdi48XB—   (@_5foot4) October 12, 2019

Police revealed that a heated argument happened outside the Rahasiyam bar an hour before Edward was brutally attacked

According to theSun, Selangor CID chief SAC Fadzil Ahmat said Edward was not present at the bar during the argument. He only arrived at the scene after finishing work. A 56-second CCTV footage, which has since been deleted from Facebook, showed several men in four cars arriving at the bar an hour after the argument happened, while crowds ran into the premises for safety. The footage showed that Edward, who happened to be outside the bar when the men arrived, was one of the last ones to run inside.

The attack on Edward was caught on CCTV.

[VIDEO] Man Ignores His Clamped Tyre And Drives Off As If Nothing Happened

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

A 45-second video shared on Twitter recently went viral for showing how a man reacted to his car tyre being clamped because he parked illegally

The video starts by showing two security guards and a man getting into a black Honda CR-V, which appears to be clamped.The man then starts his engine and begins reversing out of his parking spot.With one tyre clamped, the driver is clearly struggling to move the car out of the parking spot.Loud clanking sounds can be heard due to the damage from the clamp, but the driver does not give up.

Image via @cringemalaysian (Twitter)

Once he comes out of the parking spot, he is seen driving away as if nothing happened

The clamp was broke off from the tyre in the process and was run over by the car as well.The security guards did not say a word the entire time.While it is not known what happened before the man got into his car, the video of the incident has garnered a lot of attention and criticism from netizens.

Image via @cringemalaysian (Twitter)

Twitter users called the man's actions a waste of money and a "stupid display of ego"

"Such a miser to not even pay RM50 for the tyre clamp, now the car is wrecked," read the captions of the @cringemalaysian Twitter post.The video has amassed 443,000 views and over 5,500 retweets since it was uploaded on 8 June, with many users saying the man should have just paid the RM50 fine rather than for the repair of the serious damages on his car.One user called the man's behaviour, "Stupidity at its best.""To unlock the clamp? RM50. To repair the damaged parts (fender, bumper, and tyre): around RM500. To pay back the lock clamp: RM499. He really thought he did something," wrote another user.

Image via Twitter

Image via Twitter

One user expressed that the man's actions is clear proof that ego never solves anything. He would rather pay for the damages on his car rather than the penalty. "Maybe he owns a car workshop," wrote the user."When his ego is bigger than his brain," said another comment.

8 Things You Should Never Ever Do When You Jump Start Your Car

You get in your car, put the key in the ignition, turn it and nothing happens except a weird clicking noise. Guess what? Your battery might be... dead.

Image via Giphy

Fortunately, you know how to jump start a car!

While jump-starting a car is relatively simple and straightforward, there are things you should never be doing when trying to revive a dead battery, like:

1. Don't smoke

Image via CBS

When you're jump starting a car, you might trigger sparks from the battery and it can be pretty dangerous. A battery is extremely volatile and even the smallest spark could end in a tragedy. If you really need to smoke, do step away from the car.

2. Not wearing gloves and eye protection

Image via Mr DIY

All vehicle batteries contain sulfuric acid and produce hydrogen and oxygen gasses. In order to protect yourself from being contaminated by the elements, it is advisable for you to wear thick gloves and sturdy eyewear. Better be safe than sorry, right?

3. Not reading the owner's manual

Image via Consumer Reports

Manuals are there for a reason! These manuals have specific procedures on how to jump start their vehicles. They also include information about the location of the battery, which may not be in the front of the engine. Some manufacturers do not allow you to jump start, you could void your warranty if you attempt to do the procedure.

4. Don't jump start the car if the battery is cracked or leaking

Image via RX8 Club

You should always inspect both batteries for signs of physical damage, in particular, cracks in the case or leaking fluid. If you see either, forget about jumping and call a tow truck. Attempting to jump start a leaking battery could result in a catastrophic explosion resulting from sparks igniting volatile gasses escaping from the battery.

5. Not putting the car in Park

Image via The Car Connection

The reason for this is to prevent current draw to accessories, which will make the car harder to start – and to protect accessories from possible power spikes through the system during the jump starting process.

6. Don't let the cables dangle from the car

Image via Dummies

If the cables are connected, they have a charge. If that charge hits a puddle, you could be electrocuted. If the cable drops down toward your fender, it could cause a spark or fuse to it. Always be aware of your surroundings, guys!

7. Don't use poor and low quality cables

Image via Interstate Battery

You should always make sure that your jumper cables are in good condition, colour coded, and at least 12 feet (3 meters) long. Check for damaged insulation or frayed wires before proceeding. Cables in poor condition can cause sparks, fires, and be dangerous to the person jump starting the car. Once again, you don’t want to risk a major problem over a relatively trivial inconvenience.

8. Lastly, if you're not sure what you're doing - call a professional!

Image via Geico

If you've tried all you could but your car still won't start, there could be a bigger problem with your vehicle such as a blown starter or busted alternator. It’s probably time to call a tow truck, sadly.

Stay safe, guys! Don't skip your next car service and you won't have to suffer the consequences of a dead car battery.

Tun M Answers Jho Low's Allegation With His Trademark Sarcastic Wit

Earlier, fugitive financier Jho Low claimed that Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad had "put words into the mouth" of the US Department of Justice (DOJ) over the seizure of the Equanimity

On Sunday, a spokesperson for Jho Low claimed that Tun Dr Mahathir is "embarrassing the US" by releasing "misstatements" in the "illegal" seizure of the vessel."It is clear that the Malaysian government is lying and putting words into the US' mouth. These repeated misstatements by Malaysia are embarrassing the US, which has stressed it has no involvement in the illegal seizure of the vessel and will update the US court on 17 August," the spokesperson was quoted in a report by The Star Online.

Now, Tun Dr Mahathir has responded to Jho Low's claim in a way the 93-year-old knows he cannot fail: using his sarcastic wit

In dismissing the fugitive financier's allegation, Tun Dr Mahathir said that if he could put words into the DOJ's mouth, then he must be "greater" than Trump."I am very proud that I can put words into the (mouth of the) US government."I must be greater than Trump," the Prime Minister said sarcastically when asked by reporters at an art exhibition at the Perdana University in Serdang today.

Image via Tenor

He added that Low should ask the US authorities himself whether "I typed out the words and shoved it down their throat"

"You can ask the US authorities whether I put words into their mouths, whether I typed out the words and shoved it down their throat," Tun Dr Mahathir quipped.

On Saturday, Tun Dr Mahathir along with Defence Minister Mat Sabu, Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng inspected the Equanimity:

He has challenged Jho Low to "come and claim" it.

This Spotlight is sponsored by Rozel.

With Ramadan almost upon us, most Malaysians are already getting ready to prepare for one of the biggest occasions in the country

Image via Vecteezy

While it's true that the way we celebrate Aidilfitri now isn't how it used to be, we can take comfort in knowing that we can still enjoy those intimate and joyful moments with our family and friends, as we can find happiness in the little things. From buying brand new baju raya to stocking up on kuih raya to feast on after Ramadan, it truly is exciting to get into the Raya spirit. And, if you've been planning to do a little decorating around the home, now is the best time to do so!

Wanna get your home ready for Raya? Jom, we'll share some tips so you can start decorating:

1. Adding all kinds of plants go a long way in making your home greener and livelier

Seeing as the Raya colour palette normally consists of different shades of green, indoor potted plants are perfect for the occasion. From mini succulents on the windowsill to tropical plants such as monstera around the corners of your home, you and your family will feel calm and relaxed with the serene surroundings. If you prefer a splash of colour, there's no reason why you can't add your favourite flowers to your home as well! Pro-tip: For smaller living spaces, opt for plants that hang from the wall or ceiling.

2. Adorning colourful lights will get you in the festive mood, and you can even re-use them for the following years!

While the flashy red, blue, yellow, and green lights are what you usually see during Raya, you can also go with good ol' fairy lights to adorn on your doorframes, or even against a plain wall. Or, if you wanna go all out, you can get yourself those ketupat or moon and star lights to string around your home. You'll even be able to take cute Raya OOTDs from the comfort of home with these pretty lights. :DPro tip: If you prefer a classy look, make sure the lights match with the overall theme of your Raya decor.

3. If you're looking to replace your old furniture, opt for trendy pieces for a more premium feel this Raya

And, keep in mind that investing in new furniture will give your home a more modern feel. Now, you can finally throw out that old furniture that's been collecting dust.Pro tip: When looking for new sofa sets or recliners, go for those made with genuine leather, as these tend to last longer and are more durable.

34 UiTM Students Who Went Missing In Tanjung Malim Forest Have Been Found

32 students and staff members of Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) who went missing while conducting jungle trekking activities in Tanjung Malim, Perak have been found

Image via Twitter @bernamadotcom

The group was found at 2.50am today, 26 October, and were successfully brought out of the jungle by 5.15am.Authorities said the group was found in a fatigued state, while two members of the group were reported to have breathing difficulties and another suffered from leg cramps.The search and rescue mission was conducted by Tanjung Malim Fire and Rescue Department and involved 46 firemen, eight policemen, and five Malaysia Civil Defence Department personnel.

Authorities said the group could not find their way out of the jungle due to dark weather and high water currents

The 32 students were undergoing a course by Outdoor Pro Group Consultancy Kuala Lumpur, facilitated by four trainers.

			Because we had to cross a river with a depth of up to the chest, we brought out all the victims with the 'tensiones diagener' method that uses rope.
        Tanjung Malim Fire and Rescue Department head Muhammad Husaini Mohamad Zam

"However, two more rivers only involved 'river crossing'," he told Bernama.

It was initially reported that a group of 34 Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) students were feared missing yesterday, 25 October

The search and rescue mission was launched soon after the report was made at 6.25pm.

[NEW UPDATE] Police Are Looking For The Istana Negara Takeover Mastermind

Kuala Lumpur CID chief says they are identifying the mastermind and motive of the takeover

The police are working to identify the mastermind behind the group of people arrested outside a gate of the Istana Negara yesterday claiming to be the rightful heirs to the throne.

        bernama.com.my

"Eight men, including the group's 40-year-old leader, have been remanded for a week from today. A 52-year-old woman, believed to be the wife of the leader, and her 11-year-old daughter have been remanded for two days until tomorrow," he told a news conference here today.

Meanwhile, the Islamic Development Department of Malaysia (Jakim) and the state Islamic affairs departments have offered their cooperation to the authorities in addressing the issue.

"The group was detected earlier through the social media where it had revealed itself and shared information with the people though it all seemed to be absurd," he said in a statement.

Othman said that though the group's doctrine was contrary to historical facts and deviant in terms of religion, Jakim was convinced it had loyal followers but not that many.

In a bizarre turn of events, 10 people, including two women, clad in black were detained by police early this morning as they demanded to be allowed to enter the Istana Negara at Jalan Duta.

        malaysiandigest.com

Claiming to be rightful heirs to the royal throne, they came in three cars about 4am, parked and asked shocked palace guards to let them enter.

The guards alerted the police who promptly arrived and detained all the members of the group who are aged above 30 years of age.

Hailing from a group called Kumpulan Panji Hitam, they claim to be true heirs to the royal throne

All 10 are believed to be members of an obscure group called the Kumpulan Panji Hitam (or the Black Banner Group) representing the so-called East Empire of Langkasuka Nusantara. The main members are believed to be based in Sentul and are part of a deviant religious group.

Need Therapy? Here Are 5 Things To Consider When Looking For A Mental Health Therapist

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

If you are considering therapy — whether to get over a relationship, deal with a traumatic event, adjust to a new phase in life, or improve your overall mental health — finding the right mental health therapist will help you on your journey

But where do you begin? What should you consider when you are looking for a therapist to communicate your life worries to?We spoke to mental health therapist Lee Kah Seng of Telos Mental Wellness for some answers.

Image via Freepik

Here are five factors to consider when looking for a mental health therapist to help you reach your therapeutic goals:

1. Personality fit

According to Lee, it is important to look for a therapist who you think will be able to understand you in the first place."It is vital to have a sense of rapport with the therapist, to feel that you can get along with them, while also feeling as if he/she is honest, and genuine towards you," he said.He said clients who are able to click well and communicate openly with their therapist tend to report more successful therapy outcomes."The therapeutic alliance (the quality of the relationship between therapist and client) accounts for about 30% of difference in therapy outcomes!""A major red flag is when you find your therapist reacting in ways that make you feel broken, shameful, or that your feelings are invalid."

Image via Freepik

2. Licensing and credentials

There are different types of mental health therapists, namely counsellors, psychologists, and psychiatrists. It is important to distinguish their scope of work and how they may help you differently.In Malaysia, the terms 'therapists' and 'counsellors' are used interchangeably. But basically, counsellors are trained specifically in talk therapy, and have skills and expertise in supporting and helping clients work through emotional, cognitive, and behavioural difficulties.Meanwhile, clinical psychologists are specifically trained in giving neurological assessments and to give patients a diagnosis. They are also trained in providing talk therapy. However, they are unable to prescribe medication.Lastly, psychiatrists are medical doctors who specialise in psychiatry. As such, they are able to diagnose mental health disorders and prescribe medication. Some psychiatrists might offer therapy consultations but as they are trained in the medical model, most typically work with their patients through the use of medication.

3. Specialty and interests

According to Lee, it is also important to look at a therapist's specialty and key interests, such as in their work in dealing with depression, anxiety, grief, self-esteem, or even family therapy, couple's therapy, or career counselling.There are also therapists who work with only a particular age group, such as children, adolescents, adults, and geriatric.It would be beneficial to find a therapist who has experience working with the specific issues you are facing.

4. Cost

It goes without saying that therapy can get expensive, so cost is definitely a factor you should consider when looking for a therapist.Lee suggests considering the cost of at least 10 sessions, as therapy is not a one-off exercise. The American Psychological Association actually recommends 15 to 20 sessions for a client to experience significant change.Look for centres or non-governmental organisations (NGOs) that offer rates that you are comfortable with. Some centres even offer sliding scale rates based on your income.

5.  Background

Consider whether it's important for you to work with someone who is similar to you in terms of your age, race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, or even cultural background.Therapists are trained to be open, supportive, and non-judgemental.However, it's also helpful to think about whether you'll be comfortable talking to someone with a different background, especially if the issue you'd like to discuss has any roots in it.

Image via prostooleh/Freepik

When choosing a counsellor, also make sure to check if they're legit

Be sure to check that the therapist is in the registry of:– The Malaysian Board of Counsellors if they are a counsellor,– The Malaysian Society of Clinical Psychologists if they are a psychologist,– The National Specialist Registry if they are a psychiatrist.Also, if you do not feel like your "therapy is working", or if you are finding it difficult to be comfortable with your therapist, then it would be worth considering switching therapists.However, Lee suggested seeing a therapist for about two to three sessions first to build some rapport. The main message is to always communicate your goals with your therapist so that they are aware of the type of support you're looking for.

Lastly, while you may be rushing for a solution, it's important to know that effective therapy and change takes time!

Seeking professional help is not a form of weakness. If you or anyone you know need help, here are other resources:

81-Year-Old Closes His Free Museum After Customers Keep Stealing His Antiques

Nordin Ali, an 81-year-old from Padang Temu, Melaka, began collecting old goods as a hobby from as early as 15 years old

Today, Nordin has successfully assembled more than 2,500 antique artifacts at his home.According to Jurnal Malaysia, he opened his own museum called 'Rumahku Muziumku' in 2002, to proudly showcase his collection to visitors and tourists without charge.

Image via Harian Metro

Inheriting his father's interest at that early age, Nordin has collected historic artifacts from all over the world, including China, Netherlands, Portugal, England, Japan, and Indonesia

He was always willing to fork out some money to buy the artifacts from their original owners, or trade items with other antique collectors to expand his gallery.He owns a variety of antiques including 120-year-old stereo boxes, antique Chinese pottery, various bronze and copper items, a 115-year-old steam-engine train lamp, and even an antique Baba Nyonya bed frame that was, he told Berita Harian, once auctioned for HKD1 million.

Image via Jurnal Malaysia

However, Nordin recently made up his mind to close the museum because his precious antiques kept getting stolen

He said that he was sad and disappointed when he found out some visitors took his antiques without his knowledge or permission.He also regrets that his home has become a target for thieves.The latest incident in September involved him losing an antique iron and a copper bowl worth RM1,800 which he had acquired over 10 years ago.Nordin said that he has filed a police report on 21 September.

Image via Berita Harian

According to Nordin, he was sad not because of how much money he had lost, but because the valuable antiques that he has worked hard to collect were irreplaceable

"The incident has made me decide to close the museum so that it would not happen again," he told Harian Metro."Other than the incident in September, other things in my collection have gone missing, including two 100-year-old keris, a dragon-ornamented incense holder, an old-fashion betel leaf container, and even a Chinese padlock made in the 1800s.""Also missing was a five sen coin worth RM450, old RM20 and RM10 bills, antique irons, gold teeth in antique boxes, and my copper trays," he said.

Image via Harian Metro

Nordin said the main reason why the antiques keep getting stolen is because they are openly displayed in the museum

He added that both he and his wife, Maznah Ali, 60, are visually impaired and not fully capable of overseeing the whole collection.He said that age and various health issues such as high blood pressure, combined with heart and thyroid problems, were reasons why irresponsible parties were able to escape with his personal possessions so easily.

Here's How To Stop WhatsApp From Auto-Downloading Images And Videos To Your Phone

If you have a smartphone, chances are you're using WhatsApp

Image via Telegraph

The Facebook-owned messaging app is one of the most downloaded and used apps in the world. WhatsApp told Fortune last year that it had one billion users worldwide, with one million new users pouring into the app every day.

While the app provides convenience and connectivity, it has some annoying downsides; one of which is the default setting to download every image and video to your smartphone

Image via BT.com

There might be times when you need images or videos to be exchanged through the app, but on most occasions, spam messages can be really annoying.Apart from choking your mobile storage, these random WhatsApp forwarded multimedia files can drain your mobile data and even battery. What's even worse is when you're in a WhatsApp group consisting of people who can't stop forwarding photos and videos.

Thankfully, there's a way to disable auto-downloads on the app

If you have an Android smartphone, launch WhatsApp, and tap on the three dots on the right top corner. Go to Settings -> Data usage.Now, you will find different options under Media auto-download section. You can set different options for each one of them separately. For now, let's go with "When connected on Wi-Fi".Uncheck all the options - Images, Audio, and Video by tapping on them if they are checked already. Tap on OK to save the changes.Similarly, you can prevent auto-saving when connected to mobile data as well.

Image via Tlists

You can disable the feature on the iPhone too

Open up WhatsApp and head to Settings. Next, tap on Data and Storage Usage. Under Media Auto-Download, you will be able to set the preferences for the different type of media files. To stop the auto-download, just tap on Never.
