Najib: BN's Loss Due To Lack Of Appreciation And Slander

Yesterday, 20 May, former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak told a crowd in Pekan, Pahang that Barisan Nasional's (BN) GE14 loss was not due to any fault of their own

Image via The Malaysian Times

At an annual meeting of the United Malays National Organisation's (UMNO) Pekan division, Najib attributed the defeat to voters who failed to appreciate BN's contribution and believed Pakatan Harapan's falsehoods, reported Malay Mail.After listing down the aid given through the 1Malaysia People's Aid (BR1M) as an example, the 64-year-old said that, "Unfortunately, what we have done, our contributions, did not receive the appropriate appreciation."

Najib claimed that Pakatan Harapan won GE14 based on a campaign of "personal and hateful" attacks against him, as well as the "clearly undeliverable" promises they made to the people

"It wasn't a contestation of ideas. It was a contestation of fake news," he said, reported Channel NewsAsia.According to Malay Mail, the politician told his audience that he would have no qualms about losing to a deserving opponent. However, he said that this is not the case as Pakatan Harapan did not contest on merits.

The Pekan MP also asked how the recent Bank Negara Malaysia quarterly announcement could show that the country's growth remains robust, despite accusations that his government had caused the country to near bankruptcy

He asked, "Ladies and gentleman, can it be that, in just three days, they turned the economy completely around?"Najib added, "Do they have a magic lamp? Aladdin’s lamp? That in three days, the country no longer needs saving?" Malay Mail reported.

Nevertheless, Najib insisted that he has accepted his coalition's defeat "with an open heart" as he believes in the principles of democracy

"Be confident in UMNO's struggle. We must keep fighting. We're in a tough situation but remember, our struggle is holy and noble. One day the people will realise, the youth will realise, that our struggle is real, for our nation and religion," he added, according to Channel NewsAsia.

Yesterday, Najib denied reports that he sought witness protection due to concerns that his life is at risk:

                Najib Denies Asking Police To Place Him Under Witness Protection

This comes after reports were made that Najib was seeking protection following the 1MDB probe.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Is An Attentive 7-Inch 'Babysitter' For Kids

The 7-inch Android tablet boasts a number of apps and features designed with children in mind

Samsung, after contributing the curved screen and dual screen to the smartphone market, is now planning to target kids by launching the Galaxy Tab 3 for them.

        engadget.com

Samsung's child-friendly take on the Galaxy Tab 3.
Image via cbsistatic.com

It’s a modified version of Galaxy Tab 3 7.0 with highly customized user interface for kids plus lots of pre-installed age-appropriate software and games. Already available in Korea, the company has now confirmed that USA is the next market to get it.

        gsmarena.com

Kids Mode, for instance, provides an entirely different user interface and boasts apps and games for both entertainment and education. Titles include classics such as Fruit Ninja, Where's My Perry?, and Kids Planet Discovery.

        venturebeat.com

Parental controls ensure that kids don't accidentally rack up Google Play charges or stumble upon the wrong Web site. What's more, the timer lets parents manage just how long Junior gets to spend on the tablet in one sitting.

        thedroidguy.com

It's a smart move for the company since the number of kids watching video and playing educational games on tablets has continuously risen

      Unsupported video platform

The Kids Tablet itself has a 7-inch screen, 1024×600 screen, 1.2Ghz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, and 8GB. It costs $230, which is a bit more than the regular Galaxy Tab 3 of the same size.

        venturebeat.com

Image via technobuffalo.com

The Galaxy Tab Kids is also a bit studier and can withstand some dropping, banging, and other rough play via a specialized case, which will come in handy for kids who don’t really understand how fragile a tablet can be.

        thedroidguy.com

Image via technobuffalo.com

Adults and older kids who want to use the Tab 3 can also switch back to the standard Android mode.
The Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 Kids will retail for $229.99 when it arrives on November 10; pre-orders begin November 1.

Johor's F&B Industry Is Failing Because Singaporean Tourists Aren't Visiting

Singaporean tourists have been avoiding Johor Bahru due to ongoing tensions between both countries and immigration delays

The Malaysian Insight reported on Tuesday, 2 April, that Johor's food and beverage (F&B) industry has been affected as a result of the decline in tourists. Additionally, Singaporeans have been put off by the long queues at the immigration checkpoints.

Image via The Straits Times

Singaporeans made 10.62 million visits to Malaysia last year, which is a drop of 14.7% compared to 2017

According to the report, the plunge caused Malaysia to miss its target of 26.4 million tourist arrivals for 2018, as it had recorded only 25.83 million visitors.

Image via The Straits Times

Malaysia-Singapore Coffee Shop Proprietors' General Association president Ho Su Mong told The Malaysian Insight that businesses have been affected by the decline of tourists

According to Mong, businesses have seen a decrease of up to 30%."Besides the overcrowded checkpoints and long waiting hours, the ongoing tensions between the two countries also have an effect. "Many choose not to come here because of problems between the countries," he said, adding that he does not understand why it takes so long to clear immigration at Johor.

Echoing his sentiments, Federation of Hawkers and Petty Traders' Association Malaysia president Yow Boon Chuan said that hawkers in Johor have been complaining about the decline since early this year

"Business has been bleak since Chinese New Year (CNY) because of decreasing tourist numbers and the economic downturn," he was quoted as saying by The Malaysian Insight.Coffee shops in Melaka, another hotspot for Singaporeans, have also been reportedly affected by the lack of tourists.

The dispute between both countries is in reference to the Malaysian government making Singapore pay more for raw water supply from Johor

Malaysian Chinese Tourism Association president Albert Tan Sam Soon added that the decline in Singaporean tourist arrivals could also be due to low airfare, which allows them to fly to Penang, Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia instead.The Straits Times reported Tourism Malaysia director-general Musa Yusof previously saying that the declining number may be caused by congestion on the Causeway, and Singaporeans' increasing preference for a "new and different experience".

METMalaysia: Avoid Beaches In Terengganu, Kelantan, And Pahang Due To Dangerous Weather

The Malaysian Meteorological Department has issued a warning on the dangerous conditions affecting the waters in Terengganu, Kelantan, Pahang, and east Johor

Image via Malaysian Meteorological Department/Facebook

According to the warning published on their official Facebook page, people are advised to stay away from affected areas until Wednesday, 12 February.

A category two warning indicates strong winds of up to 60km/h and waves as high as 4.5 metres

Image via Syamsi Suhaimi/NSTP

New Straits Times reported that the impact of the winds could be felt as far as 10km inland, causing trees to sway erratically.

State Civil Defence Force director Lt-Col (PA) Che Adam Abd Rahman said that the strong winds and high waves are not only making it dangerous for the public to stroll along the beaches, but are also unsafe for fishing vessels to go out to sea too.

"The waves are dangerous and can easily sweep away anyone strolling near the beach. People can be easily washed away into the sea by rough waves," he added.

Che Adam also said that his men would be on the alert and respond to any emergency

People are warned to not tempt fate by looking for clams or swim at places that are deemed as safe because the weather conditions affecting the beaches are very dangerous.

Don't Post Selfies Online Because Bomohs May Use Them For Black Magic

A CyberSecurity Malaysia officer has warned Malaysians against taking selfies and uploading them to social media. The reason? Black magic.

Jazannul Azriq Aripin, a communications officer at government ministry CyberSecurity Malaysia, said he's aware of cases where shamans, or "bomoh," have snagged pictures of their victims from social-media pages to perform black magic rituals."Do not be surprised if the 'bomoh' themselves are getting smarter and they may have installed wireless broadband to launch their black magic," he said, according to local media."So, avoid uploading pictures of yourself to avoid the threat of black magic."

        cnet.com

Although he did not explain further about the cases or the relation between "black magic" and selfies, Jazannul, did offer some advice on how to be safe on the Internet

Jazanul also warned social media users from posting other personal details such as phone numbers and home addresses as well indecent pictures.CyberSecurity Malaysia is an agency under the Science Technology and Innovation Ministry. It was launched in 2007 by former prime minister Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi to promote cybersecurity.

        themalaymailonline.com

Malaysians have considered bomohs as healing medicine men with divine power from as early as the 17th century.
'Raja Bomoh' Ibrahim Mat Zin is one of the most popular bomohs in Malaysia in recent times, after he came into prominence for wielding large green coconuts and using bamboo binoculars as part of a ritual to locate the missing flight MH370.

'Raja Bomoh' and his assistants performed a ritual to locate the missing flight MH370 back in 2014.

Eager to impress the world of social media, some people's selfie games have lead to their deaths:

Since Malaysia's been experiencing some rainy weather as of late, it's easy to assume that we don't need to hydrate as much as we normally do when it's super hot out there, kan?Nuh-uh, that ain’t the case. Regardless of the weather, your body still needs plenty of liquids to stay hydrated, because your body is constantly losing fluids throughout the day.

Aside from drinking water, did you know that isotonic drinks contain electrolytes for optimum hydration?

Electrolytes are essential for bodily processes such as blood pressure regulation, muscle and nerve function, and of course — hydration. They are naturally occurring minerals in your body, such as calcium, chloride, potassium, and sodium. You can easily lose electrolytes when you lose a large amount of body fluids. While losing body fluids, you can choose to drink beverages which contain electrolytes in order to replenish them in your body. No matter what your daily routine is, be it working and studying from home or performing strenuous activities that make you sweat, staying hydrated with beverages that are packed with electrolytes can help you stay focused and feel energised to take on anything that comes your way.

You can have it all with a bottle of 100PLUS, as it is formulated with electrolytes to give you the mental and physical boost to be at your 100% and seize the day!

With variants such as carbonated, non-carbonated, reduced sugar, zero sugar, and more, there's a 100PLUS for everyone. This refreshing lifestyle drink is formulated with electrolytes to keep you hydrated and focused on whatever activity you're doing.And it's not just for sports buffs either.

Travelling To Japan Soon? Here Are 6 Ways To Pack Light For A Hassle-Free Journey

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

From scenic views of mountains and cherry blossoms, to cities filled with culture, technology, and shopping, Japan is a must-visit destination on many travellers' bucket lists

Japan offers a variety of unique experiences in each town and city, where people can dive into the history and traditions of Japanese culture in one corner and be transported to world-class shopping malls at another. If you're wondering when's the best time to visit Japan, most people will tell you between March to April, a.k.a cherry blossom season! In fact, there is a whole festival dedicated to it called Hanami, and it can be clearly seen on the streets of Osaka, Tokyo, or Kyoto. Whether you're visiting Japan to catch its cherry blossom bloom, soak in its historical culture, or just shop, one thing to remember is to always pack light! You'll be walking around a lot and riding on trains, so being mobile is super important.

Not sure how to pack light? Here are some tips to follow for your next Japan trip:

1. Choose the right luggage

Think small and light when travelling in Japan, as you'll be moving from place to place using multiple modes of public transport.If you're going to spend time exploring different destinations, going on trains, and jumping between different hotels, then a spacious backpack will be your best fit for mobility. If you're travelling with young kids and won't be moving around a lot, then you can use a wheeled suitcase for better convenience. Instead of an aluminium or fabric suitcase, get one made of polypropylene plastic, which is strong, durable, and light.

2. Bring only necessary travel-sized toiletries

Toiletries can take up a lot of space and weight in your bag. If you can get them in Japan or the hotel provides them, opt to just leave them at home. Convenience stores or pharmacies in Japan like Tsuruha Drugstore and 7-Eleven have plenty of essential items for you to choose from.  Use tiny travel-sized containers for your moisturiser, cleanser, and other necessary skincare products. Leave out serums or products that you won't use on a daily basis. For makeup, bring sample-sized ones which you can even fit into your purse for touch-ups. And, if you're planning on packing them in a carry-on bag, do remember you'll have to limit all your toiletries to not more than 100ml.

3. Go cashless and pay with eWallet

When you're travelling to a foreign country, the first thing you would usually do is to exchange foreign currency. But, since everything is cashless now, you won't have to carry a stash of cash with you. All you have to do is find an eWallet option that you would be able to use when you travel to different locations around Japan. Japan is usually crowded with many tourists all year round. So, it is safer to use an eWallet as it'll need your verification before any transaction is made. Plus, you can save yourself from dealing with lost cash or pickpockets.

4. Pack weather-friendly, neutral-coloured, and staple clothing pieces

Image via Priscilla Du Preez (Unsplash)

One important thing to take note of when you're visiting Japan is the weather. It can get quite chilly during certain times of the year, and you'll need to bring along coats or jackets with you. Wear heavier and bulkier clothing items on the plane or on travel days, so your suitcase will be light and have more space. It's also smart to pack neutral-coloured tops and bottoms so you'll be able to mix and match a variety of different outfits. And, if you really want to dress up the look, opt for accessories like jewellery, sunglasses, or even cute headwear that can be used for various outfits. When it comes to shoes, you can get by with one to two pairs. You'll be walking a lot so be sure they are comfortable, not just stylish. A bonus point is to use packing organisers to separate your outfits, so everything is neat and tidy.

5. If you're travelling with children, leave out packing bulky items like toys or diapers

Diapers or items like toys, books, and stationery can take up a lot of space in your luggage. However, these items can be easily found in Japan. Consider just bringing along a travel pack of diapers for the journey and buy a full pack when you arrive at your destination.Being an innovative and advanced country, you'll be able to find many cool and cute toys that will be sure to keep your kids busy and interested. Plus, these new finds can also double as a souvenir.

6. Always bring along reusable silicone bags and shopping bags

Image via Stasher

Resealable bags will come in super handy — not only are they waterproof, they are also light and come in a variety of sizes. You can use them to store everything from food items and toiletries to shoes and dirty laundry. And, if you're travelling with children, you'll be able to pack their favourite munchies and put them in your carry-on. Going to a new destination and trying out new food choices may not be easy for every child (and for some adults too!), especially those who are picky eaters. So, bringing along familiar and go-to snacks is a good idea to ease your travel.It's also a good idea to bring your own shopping bag to malls in Japan, as they have a mandatory bag fee charged by retailers.

If you're looking for an eWallet option, you can check out Touch 'n Go eWallet as they've collaborated with Alipay+ to make cross-border transactions seamless!

Image via Alipay+ (Provided to SAYS)

Available in countries such as Japan, South Korea, and Singapore, you'll be able to pay digitally with the Touch 'n Go eWallet app when you travel without any hassle, thanks to Alipay+. The great news is that they offer competitive exchange rates, no service fee, limited-time deals, and promotions for users all within the app, without the need of downloading a bunch of other apps while travelling.When you're in Japan, you won't have to worry about running out of Japanese Yen or looking for places to change your Malaysian Ringgit as you can just pay with your Touch 'n Go eWallet at selected retailers. This includes retailers such as Family Mart, 7-Eleven, Lawson, Tsuruha Drugstore, Don Quijote, and BicCamera. If you're ever in need of a quick snack or want to grab some toiletries, you can do so with just your smartphone.

All you'll have to do is keep an eye out for the Alipay+ sign when you're in stores in Japan, which means you can directly pay with your Touch 'n Go eWallet app

Image via Alipay+ (Provided to SAYS)

And since most Malaysians are already familiar with the Touch 'n Go eWallet app's interface, you won't have trouble paying for your items in Japan. Just make sure you remember to top up a sufficient amount of money on the app before your trip. No need for you to go to the bank, withdraw money, and exchange it for Japanese Yen at the money changer. Touch 'n Go eWallet is hassle-free, convenient, and takes up no weight in your luggage, as it's just an app on your smartphone.

So, before your trip to Japan, don't forget to top up your Touch 'n Go eWallet and enjoy a seamless shopping experience!
Download the app today on Google Play or on App Store.

Sick Customer Asked McDonald’s To Buy Panadol For Him And They Actually Delivered

The 'Special Remark' section of a food delivery order can be a delightful place.
In the past, customers have made cheeky requests from food delivery riders, some of which were actually fulfilled from time to time.

Take, for example, when local YouTuber AnimaJinx asked for "a handsome guy"... and McDelivery delivered:

Image via AnimaJinx

And that one time this guy asked McDonald's to give him "the most chilli sauce in Malaysia" and they sent an entire plastic bag full of chilli sauce packets:

Image via Twitter @zaynandwar / Siakap Keli Facebook

While most of these amusing encounters are of the "layan je" variety, the latest delivery story to have gone viral shows a McDelivery rider who went above and beyond to fulfill a sick customer's request

In the "Special Instructions" section of his order (below), Twitter user @amirulizarin wrote, "Hello bro, if you don't mind please help me buy some Panadol. I'll pay you later. Thanks."

Image via Twitter @amirulizarin

To his surprise, he was touched to find that the rider actually read his remark and had included a packet of Panadol along with his order

Image via Twitter @amirulizarin

The heartwarming encounter was widely shared on Twitter, where it has already amassed close to 29k retweets and messages of praise from Malaysians:

It may be a simple gesture, but this story certainly gives us the fuzzies. We appreciate you, abang and kakak riders!

On that note, read about that one time a customer put in a cheeky request that McDonald's (somewhat) delivered:

Tips Terbaik Menyimpan Makanan Agar Tahan Lagi Lama & Cara Mengesan Bahan Dapur Yang Rosak

Pernah tak anda membeli barang-barang dapur dalam kuantiti yang banyak tetapi anda tidak sempat untuk menggunakan kesemuanya sebelum tarikh luput?

Image via giphy.com

Walaupun makanan sudah melepasi tarikh luput, anda semestinya tidak mahu membazir, bukan? Jadi, macam mana nak tahu sama ada makanan tersebut masih selamat untuk dimakan atau tidak? Sesetengah barang dapur seperti telur, roti, sayur dan buah-buahan masih boleh digunakan walaupun sudah melepasi tarikh luput. Anda hanya perlu tahu cara-cara untuk mengenal pasti kesegaran barang-barang tersebut sahaja.

Lihat di bawah untuk cara-cara mengesan jika 7 barangan dapur anda ini sudah rosak:

1. Telur

Image via beritagar

Tips 1: Perhatikan warna telurPecahkan telur dan perhatikan kedua-dua warna telur kuning dan telur putih. Telur yang sudah lama akan mempunyai telur kuning yang berwarna kuning pucat dan telur putih pula menjadi cloudy dan berwarna kekelabuan. Manakala telur yang segar akan mempunyai telur kuning berwarna kuning cerah dan telur putih yang jernih. Tips 2: Hidu bau telurCara yang mudah untuk mengesan sama ada telur masih selamat untuk dimakan ialah dengan menghidu bau telur. Telur yang sudah rosak akan mempunyai bau yang kurang menyenangkan seperti sulfur. Tetapi telur yang masih segar tidak akan mempunyai bau yang kuat.

Image via foodieoncampus (diedit oleh Seismik Makan)

2. Bahan Tenusu

Image via iStock

Tips 1: Perhatikan rupa bahan tenusu Bahan tenusu seperti keju parut, keju krim, dan krim masam mengandungi kandungan kelembapan tinggi yang menggalakkan pembiakkan kulat. Jika bahan-bahan tersebut sudah mula berkulat, elakkan dari dimakan.  Tips 2: Hidu bau bahan tenusu Bahan tenusu seperti keju dan susu pula mudah untuk dikesan jika rosak melalui baunya. Keju dan susu akan mempunyai bau masam dan tengik. Elakkan juga dari meminum susu yang mempunyai ketulan dan sudah terpisah dari cecairnya. Ini bermakna susu sudah basi.

Image via lelakisihat (diedit oleh Seismik Makan)

3. Daging Ayam Dan Daging Lembu

Image via pinterest

Tips 1: Perhatikan warna dagingDaging lembu yang rosak akan mempunyai warna kelabu manakala daging yang segar akan mempunyai warna coklat kemerahan. Untuk daging ayam pula, elakkan dari menggunakan ayam yang sudah berwarna kelabu kebiruan. Walau bagaimanapun, daging yang sudah bertukar warna juga tidak bermakna daging sudah rosak. Tetapi daging yang berlendir pastinya sudah rosak. Tips 2: Hidu bau daging Daging ayam atau lembu yang rosak  akan mempunyai bau masam atau lebih spesifiknya, bau ammonia. Jika daging bau tidak menyenangkan ketika dimasak, anda digalakkan untuk membuang daging.

4. Makanan Laut

Image via aboutseafood

Tips 1: Hidu bau makanan laut Makanan laut seeloknya digunakan sebaik sahaja dibeli untuk memastikan kesegaran kerana makanan laut cepat untuk menjadi rosak. Dimana makanan laut yang segar mempunyai bau laut, makanan laut yang rosak pula mempunyai bau ammonia yang kuat di samping mempunyai luaran yang sangat berlendir.

Image via siraplimau

5. Buah-Buahan

Image via hippie-in-heels

Tips 1: Perhatikan warna kulit buahBuah-buahan yang sudah pudar atau bertukar warnanya, berkulit kedut, lembik dan hampir tertanggal kulit bermakna sudah lama dan tidak digalakkan untuk dimakan lagi. Contohnya, buah anggur yang kedut dan lembik bermakna ia sudah tidak selamat untuk dimakan. Tips 2: Hidu buah-buahanJika buah mempunyai bau masam yang kuat seperti cuka, ini bermakna buah sudah terlebih ranum dan busuk.

Image via istock (diedit oleh Seismik Makan)

6. Sayur-Sayuran Hijau

Image via riauaktual

Tips 1: Perhatikan warna sayurCara yang mudah untuk memastikan sama ada sayur hijau masih selamat untuk dimakan ialah dengan melihat warnanya. Apabila sayur sudah kurang segar, warnanya menjadi pudar ataupun kuning. Tetapi terdapat beberapa jenis sayur yang masih selamat untuk dimakan dengan hanya memotong bahagian yang sudah pudar warnanya.

Image via infoje (diedit oleh Seismik Makan)

7. Roti

Image via kanal247

Tips 1: Perhatikan permukaan roti Roti yang sudah rosak akan mula berkulat. Jangan makan kepingan roti lain yang terletak dalam ruangan yang sama walaupun hanya satu roti sahaja yang tumbuh kulat. Ini kerana roti mempunyai lubang-lubang kecil yang mebolehkan kulat-kulat merebak ke roti yang lain. Kulat juga boleh membiak walaupun tidak boleh dinampak menggunakan mata kasar.

Dengan mengetahui cara-cara untuk memastikan barang-barang dapur masih boleh disimpan selepas tarikh luput, anda kini tidak perlu lagi membazir makanan dengan sewenang-wenangnya. Mudah sahaja!

[VIDEO] Fully Functional Star Wars-Style Hoverbike Flies Above The Ground And Water

Aerofex's hoverbike made a pretty big splash when the Californian company showed off its working prototype all the way back in 2012, but then it went eerily silent

The real-life hoverbike created by California firm Aerofex was tested in the Mojave desert and a video revealing the innovation to the world was released in 2012
Image via dailymail.co.uk

Now Aerofex has unveiled plans to begin selling a commercial model in 2017 for about US $85,000 -- but anyone eager for a head start on living the "Star Wars" dream can put down a preorder deposit of $5000 toward the final price.

        discovery.com

"Where you're going, there are no roads," the company writes. "That's why you need the Aero-X, a vehicle that makes low-altitude flight realistic and affordable. Flying up to 3 metres (10 feet) off the ground at 45mph (72kph), the Aero-X is unlike any vehicle you've seen. It's a hovercraft that rides like a motorcycle -- an off road vehicle that gets you off the ground."

        cnet.com

Its two wheels are ducted rotors with carbon fibre blades, which operate in a similar manner to the open rotor of a helicopter, with much tighter control

The Aero-X is expected to make its first flight in 2016 and will be delivered to its first customers in 2017, Aerofex says.
Image via netdna-cdn.com

Such a vehicle is designed to hover above the ground at maximum speeds of 72 kilometers per hour and at heights of almost 3.7 meters off the ground, allowing it to carry two people across open terrain without the need for roads.

        techtimes.com

But the fantastical vision has only become possible because Aerofex has worked to conquer tough engineering challenges involving stability and control issues that plagued similar hover vehicles in past decades.

        discovery.com

"We’ve done a lot of work to learn how to remove the coupling effect," says Mark De Roche, chief technology officer and founder of Aerofex. "That’s the key for someone who only has motorcycle experience to be able to get on it and feel comfortable right away."

        gizmodo.co.uk

The 21st century Earth version is built primarily of carbon fibre and has two ducted rotors facing the ground (pictured) enabling it to hover.
Image via dailymail.co.uk

Aerofex claims that the upcoming hover bike can be adapted for numerous outdoor uses. The Aero-X can be used commercially for security purposes such as border patrol, rescue, use in agriculture and more. Users can also just use the bike for leisure purposes.

        loadthegame.com

The Aero-X can accommodate two people and is very intuitive. Aerofex believes that users can learn how to operate the machine in a short time span.

Image via dailymail.co.uk

The bike responds to its user's movements, very similar to the technique used by motorcycles. The expected price of the Aero-X in 2017 is $85,000 + CPI, which is a fraction of the price if someone wants to buy a helicopter or a basic airoplane.

        techtimes.com

The maintenance of the Aero-X bike is supposedly very reasonable as the company has used very less moving parts. Moreover, the futuristic bike has a reliable rotary engine that powers it

        digitaljournal.com

When compared to a regular bike, the Aero-X will be much bigger and heavier

The Aero-X will be 14.8 feet (4.5 m) in length, 6.8 feet (2.1 m) in width and 4.1 feet (1.25 m) in height. The bike is expected to weigh 785 lbs (356 kg). The Aero-X will take-off or land vertically without the requirement of high forward speed or runways.

        cnet.com

The Aero-X can be adapted for unlimited outdoor uses: surveying, SAR, border patrol, disaster relief, aerial agricultural, and much more. WATCH:

Aerofex explains that if you choose not to order, your deposit will be refunded in full

Tun M Suspects Someone In The Govt Is Helping Jho Low Evade Arrest

Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad suspects sabotage within the government is one of the reasons why Malaysia has yet to apprehend fugitive businessman Low Taek Jho (Jho Low)

“I think he (Jho Low) is hiding somewhere,” Tun Mahathir said when asked if information leakage could be one of the sabotages, as reported by New Straits Times. Malaysia is currently looking for Jho Low to assist in investigations into the 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) scandal.

Image via Borneo Post

One instance that led Tun Dr Mahathir to suspect sabotage is during a supposed arrest-mission in Hong Kong

"(Tun) Daim (Zainuddin) says somebody is informing him (Jho Low). One time he was in Hong Kong. When we reached Hong Kong, he had flown away already,” Tun Mahathir told the press at the ASEAN Leaders Gathering in Bali, Indonesia yesterday, 11 October.

Image via Sarawak Report

Previously, Tun Daim said that Jho Low had contacted him to request for immunity from the Malaysian government

However, the Council of Eminent Persons (CEP) chairman rejected Low's request. "He claimed he is innocent, so if you are innocent you come back here. Why you are running away?" Channel NewsAsia quoted Daim as saying.

Image via NST

Malaysia has already seized Jho Low's luxury yacht Equanimity on 7 August and is now looking to bring back his RM200mil private jet:

                The Government Is Now In Talks To Bring Back Jho Low’s RM200 Million Private Jet

'We have to bring it back.'

During the Prime Minister's trip to Bali, he also stated that toll-free highways are impossible:

                Mahathir Now Says It's Impossible For Highways To Be Entirely Toll-Free

The abolishment of tolls on highways was part of Pakatan Harapan's election manifesto.

"Steve Harvey Was Right" - Miss Universe Tweets Correction On Best National Costume Winner

So it turns out that host Steve Harvey was right after all.
The winner of the 'Best National Costume' for Miss Universe 2019 is indeed Miss Universe Philippines Gazini Ganados.

The Miss Universe official Twitter account confirmed this in a tweet today, 9 December.

.@IAmSteveHarvey had it right: Miss Universe Philippines Gazini Ganados is the winner of the #MissUniverse2019 National Costume competition! Congratulations, Gazini.  pic.twitter.com/L8DpAyNL9I— Miss Universe (@MissUniverse) December 9, 2019

It was previously reported that Miss Universe Malaysia took the title

However, she was apparently only called onstage to show off her national costume."Miss Universe Philippines Gazini Ganados is the winner of the Miss Universe 2019 National Costume contest. As part of the broadcast, we also featured Miss Universe Malaysia Shweta Sekhon's national costume," an insider said, according to Deadline."Miss Sekhon wasn't aware we'd be announcing the Philippines first, so she jumped the gun when Mr. Harvey started with that news. Mr. Harvey made a joke of it, but no mistakes regarding the national costume winner were made by him, the prompter or production."

Image via Twitter @MissUniverse

The official video of the interview with Miss Universe Malaysia has since been removed from Twitter. Here's a short clip of it:

Damn, Steve Harvey fucked up again pic.twitter.com/ANL1AO7zkN— adam ferrone (@_rone) December 9, 2019

Harvey had accidentally read that Miss Philippines won 'Best National Costume', to which Miss Malaysia had to correct him.He previously admitted that he was just reading the teleprompter and that they were rectifying the problem.

Having submitted the documents for the party's registration approval, Muhyiddin also went on to read Parti Pribumi's constitution:

Martha Stewart's Lifestyle Site Thinks Durian And Jackfruit Are The Same

There is a storm brewing on Twitter with Southeast Asians losing their calm, and naturally so, after seeing an article about jackfruits on Martha Stewart's lifestyle site which carries a photo of durians

Yes, the article — titled Here's Exactly How To Use Jackfruit, published on the American lifestyle guru and cookbook author's namesake site under a section named Strive — thinks durian and jackfruit are basically the same fruit.Take for example this line which is talking about jackfruit but appears right before the photo of the durians: "A recent report from restaurant management platform Upserve that analyzed American menu items found that jackfruit saw a 131 percent increase in popularity in 2017. This tropical fruit, often grown in India and southeast Asia, has a texture that can be an excellent substitute for meat."

Image via Martha Stewart

The fact that a famous lifestyle site could so easily confuse the two distinctively different fruits has rightly triggered the netizens

Dear @MarthaStewart, these are not jackfruits. These are durian. Come to Southeast Asia and see for yourself. One whiff and you’ll never mix them up again. https://t.co/mYejiTvAyB pic.twitter.com/K4OdPrvywS— Kirsten Han  (@kixes) September 10, 2018

Hi, @MarthaStewart this is a photo of durians, not jackfruit. https://t.co/xFBr5HuuhI pic.twitter.com/pay3twp6SY— Sumisha Naidu (@SumishaCNA) September 11, 2018

While some ridiculed Martha Stewart

Hey @MarthaStewart whatchu smokin? This isn't jackfruit. That's durian LOL  pic.twitter.com/bcXl0TNwzO— Melodious (@ahfugs) September 10, 2018

If they crack the wrong one open, they might never try "jackfruit" again. — AsianSocialNetwork (@AsianSocialNet) September 10, 2018

Others asked for more diverse writers on her team

Hey, @MarthaStewart, do you need to diversify your writing staff? It looks like it's time. I would've never made the mistake of misidentifying durian for jackfruit. #DiverseWritersWanted https://t.co/F9mbXn89ow— Veronica the MVP  (@WriteRonni) September 10, 2018

#EpicFail . How can the DOMESTIC QUEEN @MarthaStewart  write an article about using jack fruit as a substitute for meat but use a picture of durian? How hard is it to #Google image "J A C K F R U I T"? Can these celebrity #white folks get our SE Asian fruits correct? #Asian pic.twitter.com/2aZZcdqNkU— ThisAsianWomanSays (@echewy) September 10, 2018

For the uninitiated, here's how the two are different:

There are several kinds of each. Generally, both start green, ripen to brown and the fruit can vary from whitish to reddish, though commonly yellow. Durian is creamy, jackfruit firm to crunchy. Jackfruit can grow to 35 kg, durian much smaller. Similar yet very different. pic.twitter.com/jTSlXPrQqm— Chris Galvin Nguyen (@ChrisGNguyen) September 10, 2018

Selangor Sets Curfew For Car Wash Centres To Save Water

All Car Wash Centres In Malaysia Will Only Be Allowed To Operate Six Hours Daily, From Noon To 6pm

All car-wash centres in Selangor will only be allowed to operate six hours daily as the state increases its effort to tackle its water woes.

        themalaysianinsider.com

At The Same Time, All Illegal Car Wash Centres Will Be Ordered To Close Down With Immediate Effect

Image via wn.com

As the water level at the Sungai Selangor dam drops by the day, the state government, following a special meeting last night, ordered local councils to close down all illegal car-wash centres in their respective jurisdictions with immediate effect as a move to conserve water.

        msn.com

The Selangor State Government Has Decided On This Car Wash Curfew To Tackle The Dwindling Water Supply Problem

The meeting also decided that licensed car-wash centres will only be allowed to operate for six hours every day, from noon to 6pm."Notices will be distributed by the local councils to car wash operators in the state soonest possible to allow for necessary preparations be made," the statement said.

        yahoo.com

“We will not decide hastily,” said state executive councillor Dr Ahmad Yunus Hairi after attending a Selangor Economic Action Council meeting yesterday, which also discussed the water woes. He added that since the state government had experience in managing water rationing, future exercises would be better managed.

        thestar.com.my

According To A Car Wash Operator, The Local Councils Should Survey The Amount Of Water Car Wash Centres Use Compared To Restaurant And Offices Before Applying Such Ruling

A car wash and detailing centre operator in Petaling Jaya said the ruling would definitely affect his business as his operations were from 9am to 7pm.

        thestar.com.my

“We can just ask our customers to come at a different time, but perhaps the local councils should first do a survey on the amount of water we use compared to restaurants and offices,” said the man who owns three car wash and detailing centres in Petaling Jaya and Shah Alam.

        thestar.com.my

“This is because most car wash centres use machines that help save water.”

        thestar.com.my

The State Government Is Working Hard To Ensure There Is Sufficient Water Supply In The State To Last Throughout The El Nino Phenomenon

Selangor will be imposing a curfew on car-wash centres due to dropping water levels at the Sungai Selangor dam.
Image via themalaysianinsider.com

The state government also said that it was working hard to ensure there is sufficient water supply in the state that would last throughout the El Nino phenomenon.

        themalaysianinsider.com

It was reported that the United Nation’s weather agency, World Meteorological Organisation (WMO), has said that El Nino, which sparks climate extremes around the globe, is likely to take hold in the Pacific Ocean by the end of the year. WMO said there was an 80% likelihood that El Nino could start between October and November and 60% that it would do so between now and end of August.

        themalaysianinsider.com

The State Government Says Water Rationing Would Be A Last Resort If Efforts To Conserve Water Are Unsuccessful

Meanwhile, the state government insisted that water rationing exercise would only be conducted as a last resort only if all efforts to conserve water were unsuccessful. "At the same time, users in Selangor should save water and avoid wastage."

        msn.com

It added that mitigation efforts, as announced earlier, are still ongoing. The continued effort included lowering the output of water at the Sungai Selangor dam to 700 million litres per day and Sungai Tinggi dam (500 milion litres per day).

        themalaysianinsider.com

"Cloud seeding operations are also being conducted continously with cooperation from the Royal Malaysian Air Force, Meteorological Department and Syarikat AF Jet Sdn Bhd throughout Selangor."

7 Malaysian Fiction Novels For Anyone Who Says Books Put Them To Sleep

Books are a subjective thing. You either love them or you hate them, but we implore you to rethink the hate part. For these Malaysian novels, beautifully written and close to the heart, are a must read.

Some of the books published by Buku Fixi.
Image via Buku Fixi

These books by local publisher, [Buku Fixi](http://fixi.com.my/), are some of the best renditions of our Malaysian culture and way of life. Expect to read loads of high profile scandals, corruption, love, black magic, murders, and everything else that is ugly and amazing about living in Malaysia. The books are labeled as fiction but we'll let you decide if the stories ring a bell.

We picked seven of our favourites from the Buku Fixi English collection and put together this list.
These books mainly detail the stories hidden in the dark and twisted side of the streets in Malaysia, beneath all that shiny glassy exterior.

1. KL Noir: RED

KL Noir: Red is the first of the KL Noir series.
Image via Buku Fixi

With a collection of 14 short stories, written mostly by Malaysians from all walks of life, KL Noir: Red kick-starts the series with some really disturbing stories about Kuala Lumpur. Most of us would assume what we see as the reality of things but this book reveals a surprising, ugly truth hidden beneath everything we see. Look out for: 'Mamak Murder Mystery' by Marc de Faoite: The depressing lives of Indian immigrants working in local eateries, especially the greasy, ever busy mamak restaurants, woven in a fast-paced story. We promise you would never look at them the same way again.

2. 13 Moons

13 Moons by local writer Ee Leen Lee was published in 2014
Image via Buku Fixi

Ee Leen Lee must have a thing for everything mysterious, horrifying, and brutal.  In 13 Moons, she takes urban myths, folklore, and horror stories and entwines them with our daily lives. Think real life predators, pedophiles described in the form of ghosts, toyols, and serial killers.Look out for: Red Balloon: The ghost of a young girl leads the story, she lurks in the suburbs and playgrounds trying to get the attention of the residents to reveal the hidden truth behind her death. The story may invoke memories of reading The Lovely Bones by Alice Seabold but the ending takes an unpredictable turn.

3. KL Noir: Blue

KL Noir: Blue is the third installment in the KL Noir series.
Image via Buku Fixi

The book cover says it all. This book brings to life all the thoughts and suspicions you had about the sickening crimes that happen in Kuala Lumpur. There are 15 stories detailing child brides, male chauvinism, gang fights, suicide, and murders. The catch is that the book will leave you wondering how far will one go to fight for justice - will you break the laws in order to get justice?Look out for: Gangsters in Retirement by Balan Moses: A bunch of old Indian gangsters in Brickfields reminiscing their glory days. Beliefs collide, people change but will your past actions ever stop chasing you? The story feels a little like watching a B-rated Tamil movie, but reading it somehow manages to grab your attention with details that are always left out in the movies.

4. Horror Stories

The author of Horror Stories, Tunku Halim has is well known for his passion for writing about all things supernatural.
Image via Buku Fixi

Even book haters love a good horror story. Tunku Halim nails it by compiling his short horror stories over the years, from 1997 until 2007. The stories are punchy and vividly written, but not exactly spooky. They describe more of the dark, ghostly presence that lurks in all of us. The monsters in men peppered with a touch of supernatural beings. Look out for:  Ladiah (1999): The twisted tale of lust between an Indonesian maid and her employer takes an eerie turn when black magic is thrown in. Rather obscene but it makes you wonder if all those horror stories you heard about "spooky" maids are true after all.

5. KL Noir: Yellow

KL Noir: Yellow is the final installment to the four part series of KL Noir books.
Image via Buku Fixi

Believe me, this book has very little to do with the cheery, warm goodness of french fries. The fourth installment to the KL Noir series is a little different.The stories are written under the same theme surrounding KL Noir that drags the readers through the underbelly of KL but each is wrapped in a different story altogether, giving readers a sense of variety. Look out for: Anai by Wong Pek Mei: This is bound to leave you angry and disgusted. A young girl is sold by her parents to a pedophile that satisfies his sick fantasies as she struggles to eventually accept the cards fate has dealt her. Vladimir Nabokov's Lolita comes to mind.

6. KL Noir: White

KL Noir White comes with a total of 18 short stories.
Image via Buku Fixi

There is nothing white and pure about the ongoings in a bustling city like Kuala Lumpur. There are more stories on crime but this particular book focuses more on the tragedy that all of us hope but hardly befalls the pathetic, sick people committing crimes. Look our for: Clippings by Amir Sharipuddin: Politicians shape our lives; they make the policies, run the country, and decide the rules. Sometimes, they play their cards all wrong and you desperately want to get rid of them and most would think of voting them out. But in this story, the protagonist takes matters in his own hands and starts slitting throats of conniving politicians. It is basically the Malaysian version of Sweeney Todd lah.

6. Love In Penang

Love In Penang was published in 2013.
Image via Buku Fixi

Taking a break from all the unhappiness that surrounds humans, Love in Penang takes a refreshing twist in the Buku Fixi series. Sure, it is just a book about people in love, but what really makes it special is the setting, Penang. The love described in the stories aren't just between humans but also for the little heaven that is Penang. Don't be surprised if you find yourself packing your bags and heading off to Penang, hoping for a romantic adventure. ;) Look our for:Amah's Bicycle by Julya Oui: The relationship between a teenager and her aging grandmother blossoms through a beautiful love story from the past. There is a sense of intimacy when the author describes the grandmother's old, seasoned love.

Malang itu sudah semestinya tidak berbau

Begitu juga dengan kemalangan atau insiden yang tidak diingini di dalam air boleh berlaku dalam sekelip mata atau pada ketika yang tidak dijangka.Walau tahu berenang tidak bererti seseorang itu tidak akan lemas kerana apa-apa sahaja berkemungkinan untuk berlaku.

Mereka yang tidak dipantau dengan rapi boleh tenggelam lalu lemas tanpa disedari oleh orang ramai di sekelilingnya. Ini kerana bukan semua insiden lemas melibatkan aksi dramatik meronta lalu memekik meminta tolong seperti yang selalu dipertontonkan dalam kaca televisyen mahupun filem.

Oleh itu orang ramai disarankan untuk mengambil langkah berjaga-jaga demi mengelakkan perkara yang tidak diingini daripada berlaku.

Baru-baru ini sebuah video telah tular di laman sosial memaparkan satu cara untuk menyelamatkan diri ketika sedang lemas

How Total Strangers React To A Blindfolded Muslim Asking Them To Trust Him Is Heartwarming

Recently, a YouTube channel called 'STHLM Panda' uploaded a video about 'trust experiment' that they conducted on the streets of Stockholm.
The video opens with a blindfolded man, standing with his arms spread out, and a sign that read, "I am a Muslim, not the same as a terrorist. Do you trust me? I trust you!"

Image via STHLM Panda

The Canadian Muslim is taking part in the 'Blind Trust Project', a social experiment aiming "to break down barriers and eliminate the fear and ignorance projected towards Muslims and Islam." Assma Galuta, 24, came up with the idea for the project and teamed up with production company Time Vision to carry it out.

        independent.co.uk

Initially, no one paid much attention to him

Image via STHLM Panda

However, soon enough, a young woman came up and said, "I trust you," and hug the blindfolded guy, whose name is Mustafa Mawla

Image via STHLM Panda

Next came a young man who was bold enough to acknowledge Mustafa's religion and still recognise him as a human being, saying, "I'm not a Muslim but I respect"

Image via STHLM Panda

Then the hugs came rolling in! And at the end of the day, a total of 142 awesome people had given Mustafa a hug!

Image via STHLM Panda

Image via STHLM Panda

It's absolutely beautiful to see how honest and easy it was for these people to hug, as if everyday was hug-a-Muslim-day. People of varied ethnicity, age and religion all came up to hug Mustafa.

The description under the video reads, "Spread the love and respect for your fellow human beings by spreading the clip! Many thanks to all of you who chose to share with us your love. Be the change you wish to see in the world!" Watch the full video here:

In the end, we should all strive to be like this kid, so trusting!
