“Furthermore some of us had our warranty voided by the manufacturer due to minor overruns in the car’s service interval.”

"A lot of customers including myself would have to book our cars in for service a month in advanced as there are no available slots for me to do so earlier," said Loke.

“We also want some flexibility regarding the car service interval schedule. The warranty should not be void, provided we send in the car for servicing within a 3,000km limit after the scheduled service interval,” said a participant.

The group of owners also handed over a list of requests to the Volkswagen management. Their list of requests includes a warranty extension to 10 years for the engine and gearbox, and no voiding of the warranty for mileage overruns under the tolerance of 3,000km.

        livelifedrive.com

“The reliability issues of the seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox are already acknowledged by Volkswagen in China and they have extended their warranty coverage to 10 years. We on the other hand are still left with a 5-year warranty coverage,” explained Yeo. “All we are asking for is a fair treatment from VGM.”

VGM Managing Director Christoph Aringer Said The Company Is Aiming For Higher Levels Of Customer Satisfaction, In Line With Its Expansion Plans

New managing director, Christoph Aringer, is well aware of issues on reliability and after-sales service plaguing Volkswagen owners in Malaysia.

Part of this involves extended operation hours for 20 authorised Volkswagen service centres in Peninsular Malaysia, which will open on Sundays from 9am to 5pm for vehicle maintenance services beginning March 16.

        star-motoring.com

Volkswagen car owners only need to make an appointment a few working days before their desired vehicle service on Sundays, in order to secure an appointment with their preferred service centre.

“Customer satisfaction is an integral component of VGM. We are listening to our customers, and take their feedback seriously,” said Aringer.

"We would also like to point out that fast growing brands such as Ford and Peugeot also experienced similar customer complaints alluding to the lack of after-sales capacity during their period of growth a number of years back. With a fast growing number of new customers, an unprepared after-sales network would be easily overwhelmed by the higher number of customers looking to send their cars in for routine service." - Live Life Drive

"Only in the past few years did Ford and Peugeot managed to turn their situation around after expanding their service network and hiring better trained after-sales personnel to meet the needs of their new customers." - Live Life Drive

DBP Standardising Flat Rice Noodles Spelling To 'Kuetiau' Leaves Malaysians Conflicted

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

How would you spell this dish in Bahasa Melayu?

Image via yuyu Blog

'Char kway teow' or 'char kuey teow'?
Both are wrong. Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka (DBP) Malaysia recently revealed that the flat rice noodles are actually spelled as 'kuetiau'.

In a Facebook post published on Sunday, 28 February, DBP said neither 'kuetiaw goreng' or 'koay teow goreng' is the right spelling for the stir-fried flat rice noodles. The government body responsible for coordinating the use of the Malay language in the country has standardised kuetiau as the spelling for the noodles.

Image via Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka Malaysia (Facebook)

'Kway teow' is the Hokkien pronunciation of the word 'flat noodles'. The individual meaning of the words (粿条) means 'kuih' and 'strip' respectively, while 'char' means 'stir-fried' in Hokkien.On Google, the 'kway teow' spelling fetches more search results than 'kuey teow' and 'kuetiau' combined.

In a reply on Twitter, DBP said that 'kuetiau' has been added to the Kamus Dewan, which was first published in 1970

Saudara, ejaan kuetiau telah dimasukkan dalam Kamus Dewan terbitan DBP (cetakan pertama 1970).— Dewan Bahasa dan Pustaka (@DBPMalaysia) February 28, 2021

However, many netizens are conflicted with this revelation

The definition of kuetiau on DBP's website.

The Facebook post in which DBP announced the spelling went viral with over 10,000 likes and 4,500 shares.Hundreds of netizens said that they are shocked by DBP's decision on the spelling."Hmm... when I was in primary school, teachers always used 'koay teow', but I never see the word kuetiau in Bahasa textbook. Guess that it will take a while for people to accept this new spelling," read a top comment."Ermm... I always spell it as 'kuey teow'," said a netizen, while another added, "Wow. I just know this. Kuetiau. I've always spelled it as 'kuew tiaw'."All of the three Facebook users spelled the words differently.

Image via Facebook

Some netizens pointed out that many hawker stalls out there spell the word differently.One netizen pointed out that some shops spell the word as 'koteow'.

Image via Facebook

One person contended that there is no right spelling of the word because, even among the Chinese, people speaking different dialects pronounce the word differently

Image via Facebook

Meanwhile, one netizen asked why does ordering 'char kuey tiaw' will receive a dish that comes with broth.

Image via Facebook

In a stroke of wisdom, one netizen said char kuey teow and kuetiau goreng supposedly mean the same thing. "But, depending on your locality, the two terms can mean different things," he said.

Image via Facebook

Regardless of what DBP has decided on the spelling, many netizens said the issue does not concern them as long as the kuetiau goreng tastes delicious

Image via UPPRE

"We fix what we have normalised, and we need to normalise what is accurate. With that said, whatever spelling hawker stalls use, the dish is tasty anyway," said a person.Another added, "As long as it's tasty, it doesn't matter how you spell it."

Image via Facebook

Did you know that the term 'add oil' can actually be found in the English dictionary:

                Did You Know: The Phrase "Add Oil" Has Been In The Oxford English Dictionary Since 2016?

Here we were all using it ironically.

Cutting Down On White Rice? The New GABA Rice Is A Healthier Alternative

This Spotlight is sponsored by Cuckoo Malaysia.

Can't give up your nasi? There's a way to get all the nutrients you need without giving up your favourite food!

Image via Tenor

Sprouted nuts and seeds are known in the clean-eating circle for their vast health benefits. The good news: You can sprout rice as well to reap its full nutritional content!

Known as GABA rice, this germinated brown rice is becoming a popular choice in Korea. The rice is viewed as being “alive”, while white rice is seen as “dead” and brown rice as “asleep”.

Image via Cuckoo

Many are familiar with the health benefits of consuming brown rice as opposed to white rice. Retaining its cereal germ and bran, brown rice contains fibre, vitamins and minerals while white rice does not. However, to unlock the full nutritional content of brown rice, germinating is the way to go.

Image via Cooking God's Way

GABA rice is deemed as "alive" as its innate nutrition is fully activated. According to the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) of the United Nations, GABA rice packs more gamma-Aminobutyric acid, Vitamin B1, Vitamin E, fibre, magnesium and calcium compared to brown rice. Additionally, it's fluffier, tastier and easier to digest!

GABA rice's low glycaemic index (GI) also makes it a great option for weight management

GABA rice also helps with lowering risk of heart disease, soothing constipation and maintaining brain health. It's a great option for those with hyperglycaemia, hyperlipidaemia, hypertension, obesity or indigestion.

While consuming germinated brown rice is beneficial, sprouting it yourself at home can be a hassle - taking up to 20 hours!

Besides the long soaking time, you'll need to rinse the soaked rice a few times a day, making it quite a chore.

Image via Cooking God's Way

Fortunately, popular Korean brand Cuckoo's range of multi-cookers includes a GABA rice function, making sprouting your rice a lot more convenient

Image via Cuckoo

Simply add rice and water into the cooker and select the GABA function with the cooking time you prefer (a choice of 2, 4, or 6 hours). No 20-hour soaking or rinsing every few hours required!

Image via Cuckoo Malaysia

Besides GABA rice, the innovative cookers are fitted with other smart features for cooking, steaming, baking, braising, stewing and frying, along with auto-cleaning and pre-set options for added convenience.

[PHOTOS] Malaysia Has Its Own PokeMobile!

Following the latest global craze of Pokémon GO, Grab and Hotlink have jointly prepped four limited edition PokeMobile cars for trainers to hunt down Pokémons when the game launches in Malaysia

Image via Grab

In anticipation of the game, both Grab and Hotlink announced that for the first two days following the launch of the game, all Pokémon GO players can book a free ride to the nearest PokéStop by selecting the PokeMobile button on their Grab app.

Since Pokémon hunting is known to be energy-draining for both trainers and their phone batteries, each of the PokeMobiles are specially equipped with some awesome goodies

Each of the PokeMobiles are specially equipped with refreshments, Grab Goodie Bag, Hotlink PokeChargers for your phone, and even a Hotlink Fast 4G widescreen monitor.

Existing Hotlink customers will be getting a headstart in the game by providing US$100 worth of PokeCoins

Image via Grab

That is equivalent to 14,500 PokeCoins, which trainers can instantly exchange for additional gaming advantage! Examples of what trainers can purchase with USD100 worth of PokeCoins:- 145 Pokémon lures to attract more Pokémon to any location- 145 Pokeballs- 96 egg incubators

Head of Grab, Jaygan Fu said knowing that Pokemon Go has taken the world by storm, they too wanted to be a part of the immersive game while helping players with it

“We are aware there is a huge Pokémon following in Malaysia and we wanted to join in the thrill of the game. As Grab has always been focused on providing safe, comfortable, convenient and affordable rides, we wanted to encourage and help Pokémon Trainers hunt for the Pokémons while traveling from one PokeStop to another safely," said Fu.

Does this partnership mean Pokémon GO is coming to Malaysia soon?

Image via The Guardian

It appears to be so. According to The Malay Mail, the game was scheduled for its local release this weekend, but developers were still resolving server issues. While tech site The HypedGeek have speculated that the game will be launching pretty soon after the Malaysian Pokémon GO was detected earlier this week.

While you wait for the release of the game, why not dowload the Grab app on iTunes and Google Playstore?

M'sian Man Uploads Video Of Him Scolding Cashier For Being 'Rude' But It Backfires Instead

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

A video of a Malaysian man being rude to a cashier recently went viral on Twitter

In the one-minute clip, the man records a cashier who is working while he is standing in line at her checkout counter.The man suddenly snaps and asks the employee to repeat herself after she previously told him to go to a different counter."We've closed this counter," the employee responds, but the man is not satisfied by her reply and rudely tells the employee that he cannot see a sign indicating that the counter is closed.The cashier then informs the man that the counter will close once the customer in front of him has finished paying for their purchases, but the man continues to taunt her while she remains silent.

Image via Screenshot/SAYS

The man then continues to complain, demanding that his needs be met

After the employee ignores him, the man pokes at her again, saying, "Oh, now you're quiet. Why? Because I'm filming you?"He then puts a carton of boxed drinks on the checkout conveyor belt while calling the cashier rude."You're supposed to put up a sign here saying your counter is closed, not just tell customers it's closed. You should look behind here to see if there's anyone there," he continues.After listening to the man scream at her, the cashier switches places with her colleague in what seems to be an attempt to avoid him.

Image via Screenshot/SAYS

The man uploaded a video of the incident on TikTok in the hopes that Malaysians would support him. Instead, netizens chastised him for his actions.

One user commented that they had been in a situation similar to the man's, but instead of recording and mocking the cashier, they simply walked away to the next available counter.

Image via Twitter

Another suggested that the man work as a cashier before attempting to make such a small issue go viral on social media.“Do you think that when supermarkets close at 10pm, all the employees leave at 10pm? They have to count cash float and cash out  the money, too. It was just a small matter and you asked for the manager. Who do you think you are?" they lambasted.

Image via Twitter

Another user pointed out that the man could have approached the cashier nicely and politely asked to be the last customer to checkout before she closed the counter.

Kalau boleh, nak beli rumah tu janganlah guna sampai maksimum kelayakan. Lagi-lagi kalau rumah tu kau nak buat duduk sendiri.Contoh mudah kita ambil kau yang bergaji RM3,000, bini surirumah sepenuh masa. Pakai kereta Myvi bayar ansuran RM500 sebulan.Katakan kau minat gila kat satu bank ni. Dia punya maksimum Debt Service Ratio (DSR) yang dibenarkan adalah 60% daripada gaji kau.RM3,000 x 60% = RM1,800. Senang kata, bank tu benarkan bayaran hutang bulanan kau dengan bank, maksimum RM1,800 saja.RM500 dah pakai bayar Myvi tadi, jadi kita tolak siap-siaplah. Senang lepas ni fokus kira beli rumah pula. Tak sabar betul dah ni. Kahkah!RM1,800 - RM500 = RM1,300.Dengan RM1,300 kau boleh beli rumah dengan pembiayaan RM260,000 lebih kurang. Tenor selama 35 tahun dan bank profit sekitar 5.0%.Kalau dah tau yang maksimum kau layak adalah RM260,000 elakkan beli rumah yang memerlukan pembiayaan sebanyak itu.Carilah yang murah sikit lagi. Ala, cari yang perlu pembiayaan RM200,000 ke. Atau kalau dapat yang RM150,000 pun okay. Ikut kaulah.Sebab utama, supaya bank lebih mudah nak luluskan. Ingat! Bukan semua bank benarkan maksimum DSR 60%. Yang 40% pun ada tau.Lagi satu sebab adalah untuk kos sara hidup kau. Gaji RM3,000 tolak maksimum komitmen tetap RM1,800 baki dalam RM1,200 sahaja.Dengan baki itulah kau guna untuk beli pampers anak, susu anak, bayar takaful lagi, isteri nak beranak lagi dan juga hal kecemasan.Rumah: RM1,300Kereta: RM500Ibu Bapa: RM200Tol: RM200Petrol: RM300Takaful: RM100Bil-bil: RM100Barang dapur: RM600Barang anak: RM300TOTAL: RM3,600Lebihan gaji: - RM600Lebihanlah sangat. Tu negatif RM600 ya!

Fresh graduate biasanya belum pernah ada apa-apa komitmen dengan bank. Rekod masih suci murni tanpa noda dosa kewangan.Dalam erti kata lain, CCRIS masih belum ada rekod. Kebanyakan bank susah sikit nak luluskan anda untuk beli rumah kalau CCRIS bersih sangat.Sebabnya bank tak kenal lagi yang kau ni jenis bayar hutang on time atau asyik nak mengelat saja. Kalau orang nak pinjam duit kita pun, kita tengok dulu orangnya berjenis ke tak, kan.Apa yang kau boleh buat, mohon kad kredit sebelum kau nak beli rumah. Gunalah seketul kad tu untuk isi petrol dan beli barang dapur. Pastikan bayar penuh setiap bulan.Kau guna dalam 6 bulan, dah boleh beli rumah pertama. Cara ni agak membantu jugalah. Selepas dah berjaya beli rumah, bolehlah pilih sama ada nak terus guna kad kredit tu atau potong dua kad tu.

Kalau rumah pertama tu kau beli sebab nak duduk sendiri, agak susahlah nak tambah rumah lagi selepas ni. Lagi-lagi kalau rumah tu makan banyak daripada gaji.Nak jadi bijak sikit, rumah pertama kau khaskan untuk pelaburan, hasil sewaan boleh dikira sebagai pendapatan tambahan.Beli rumah pertama untuk duduk sendiri adalah tindakan yang kurang bijak! Lagi-lagi kalau gaji kau memang ciput. Kau akan jadi makin lambat beli rumah kedua sebab kurang simpanan bulanan dan kurang kelayakan untuk mohon pembiayaan rumah seterusnya.Kalau memang gaji besar, takpalah. Tapi terpulanglah kepada plan kewangan masing-masing.

Cari rumah daripada pasaran subsale. Nego dengan tuan rumah bagi deposit rendah atau beli rumah daripada pemaju dengan entry cost mudah dan guna pakej 100% pembiayaan bagi yang layak.Tapi jangan mengharap sangatlah dengan 100% pembiayaan. Bukan senang-senang boleh dapat.Lagipun, saya kata modal minima tau. Bukannya tak perlu ada modal langsung. Jangan salah faham pula.Walaupun sekarang ni kau belum bernafsu nak beli rumah, Tabung Rumah tetap kena ada. Sebab bila tiba-tiba datang seru, modal dah siap sedia masa tu. Boleh angkat rumah sebijik terus.Tapi malangnya, tak ramai yang peduli pun. Lebih baik melancong setahun 4 kali, pakai kereta import, tukar sportrim sebesar alam, modify kereta Wira jadi macam Lancer takpun Myvi tayar terkangkang.

Cari jalan buat duit RM550 setiap bulan untuk mohon ASB Financing RM100,000. Dengan teknik compounding biasa pun, paling cikai boleh dapat tunai RM46,000 selepas 5 tahun.Kalau kau simpan bawah bantal, RM550 x 12 x 5 = RM33,000 saja. Dengan ASB Financing, dapatlah untung RM46,000 - RM33,000 = RM13,000. Okaylah tu kan. Siapa senang-senang nak bagi macam tu kat kita.Jual tudung 50 helai pun dah boleh dapat RM550 sebulan. Tapi kalau tak mampu RM100,000 buatlah mana-mana yang mampu. RM50,000 ke kan. Kalau dah buat ASB Financing ni, wajiblah bayar setiap bulan tau. Force saving!Katakan dalam masa terdekat kau rancang nak beli rumah, elakkan buat ASB Financing dengan amaun yang besar. Sebab ASB Financing pun akan efek pengiraan DSR dan kelayakan pembiayaan kau.Cuma, bila dah dapat dividen nanti, bank akan kira sebagai pendapatan tambahan kau pula. Jadi, timing kena tepat.Jangan nanti nak beli rumah, tak lepas. Kemudian menyalahkan ASB financing. Padahal kau yang melabur tak cukup ilmu.

Harga kereta boleh tunggu kita. Honda City baru keluaran 2020 nanti harga lebih kurang je dengan Honda City baru tahun ni punya.Tapi harga rumah RM200,000 tahun ni, takkan tunggu kamu dik. Tahun 2025 nanti, entah-entah dah naik menghampiri RM300,000.Cadangan saya, kalau nak beli kereta sangat, belilah kereta patut milik yang ansuran bulanannya tak lebih 15% daripada gaji.Atau harganya tak lebih daripada gaji setahun kau. Contoh senang untuk yang bergaji RM3,000 begini.RM3,000 x 15% = RM450Ansuran bulanan tak lebih RM450.RM3,000 x 12 = RM36,000Harga kereta tak lebih RM36,000.Ini hanya contoh dan cadangan. Kalau nak sangat, kau pakailah kereta yang betul-betul di bawah kemampuan kau.Contohilah Abang Ensem Meor Zaidee. Kalau tengok income dia, boleh saja dia pakai BMW atau Merc. Tapi dia tetap pakai Honda City je.Fresh graduate sekarang, gaji RM3,000 dah menggelupur nak pakai Honda City, Toyota Vios. Haha!Cara yang bijak macam ni pula. Beli 2 buah apartmen dengan masing-masing ansuran RM700 dan keduanya disewakan pada kadar RM900 mengikut kadar sewaan semasa.Kalau kau dapat sewakan per kepala dan fully furnished biasanya kadar sewa lebih tinggi. Iyalah, kita sendiri pun guna banyak tenaga nak mencari penyewa dan modal masuk perabot, kan.Dapat aliran tunai positif RM400 daripada dua rumah, boleh pakai Proton Saga Plus percuma. Nak pakai Honda City percuma macam mana pula? Ini ideanya sahaja. Jangan lurus bendul. Ambil kalkulator, kiralah sendiri.

Ejen Hartanah akan bantu mendapatkan rumah yang sesuai dengan bajet kau. Lebih-lebih lagi kalau kau memang zero bab hartanah.Jangan percaya mitos "beli dengan ejen, harga rumah jadi mahal". Biasa tu kerja broker, bukan ejen.Ejen hari-hari berurusan jual beli rumah. Kita pula nak beli rumah setahun sekali pun belum tentu. Gunakan kepakaran mereka.Lagi satu, kalau ejen ada tanya pasal gaji dan komitmen kau, tak payah nak berahsia bagai. Ejen tanya bukan sebab nak mengorat kau pun.Pasal PTPTN ke, tunggakan kad kredit dan pembiayaan peribadi menggunung tinggi ya amat ke. Cerita terus. Senang ejen nak tapis awal-awal.

Setiap orang layak untuk dapat Margin of Financing (MOF) sampai 90%-100% untuk rumah pertama dan 90% untuk rumah kedua daripada bank. Bergantung jugalah kepada kekuatan kewangan dan skor kredit anda.Suami isteri boleh dapat 4 kuotalah maksudnya. Jadi, bila dah selesai 4 kuota rumah dengan MOF hingga 90%-100% tu, boleh dah rasa lega. 2 rumah pembiayaan nama suami, 2 rumah pembiayaan nama isteri.Selepas tu kena kerja kuat lagilah untuk beli rumah lain sebab MOF dah jadi 70% untuk rumah ketiga dan seterusnya.Secara asasnya, kau perlu sediakan baki 30% daripada harga rumah dengan duit sendiri. Fuhhh. Lap peluh.Psst! Kalau suami isteri kerja kerajaan, boleh dapat 6 buah rumah dengan MOF 90%-100%.

Ikut suka kaulah nak simpan kat Tabung Haji ke, ASB ke, tabung cap ayam ke. Kalau masih bujang, simpanlah 50% daripada gaji kau tu. Tak perlu tip yang canggih-canggih pun untuk simpan banyak tu. Senang je.Kalau gaji kau RM2,000 belanjalah macam orang biasa gaji RM1,000. Baki lagi RM1,000 masuk tabung. Selesai.Kalau dah berkeluarga, cuba simpan 30% gaji ya. Gaji suami tambah gaji isteri RM4,000. Belanja RM2,800 simpan RM1,200.Ada situasi, memang tak cukup kalau nak harap gaji hakiki saja. Dah jimat betul pun tapi masih takda lebihan duit hujung bulan. Jadi, nak tak nak kenalah cari 2-3 side income untuk wujudkan juga simpanan bulanan.Kenapa simpan kat Tabung Haji dan ASB? Sebab Tabung Haji ada dividen 4.25%, ASB pula dividen 6.75%. Untunglah juga kalau nak dibandingkan dengan simpan dalam tabung cap ayam bawah bantal tu.Lagi pun, kalau simpan kat Tabung Haji atau ASB, ada rekod yang tunjukkan kau simpan konsisten setiap bulan. Bank suka orang yang konsisten. Membantu juga untuk kelulusan beli rumah nanti.

Masa kat universiti lagi dah boleh mula usaha beli rumah. Duit PTPTN dan biasiswa jangan guna semua, laburkan kat ASB dan Tabung Haji.

Semua orang teringin nak rumah besar, senibina moden, ruang tamu yang luas dan perabot yang mahal. Semua nak yang indah-indah.Tapi cuba fikir rasional sikitlah. Mampu ke kau beli sekarang dengan gaji RM2,500 tu? Kalau belum mampu, beli rumah kecil pun tak mengapa. Takkan nak tunggu harga rumah naik lagi.Ingat! Rumah pertama bukan rumah idaman yang kita nak duduk lepas pencen. Kalau nak pencen baru nak beli rumah, sangatlah rugi.Sekarang harga rumah RM400K, lagi 20 tahun entah-entah nak dekat RM1juta dah kot. Tangguhkan dulu ciri rumah idaman tu.Takut-takut yang dikendong tak dapat, yang dikejar berciciran. Eh! Berperibahasalah pulak kita.

Pasaran subsale pada masa ini memihak kepada pembeli. Tuan rumah ada yang terdesak menjual rumahnya. Pembeli kena bijak nego untuk dapatkan harga terbaik.Seronoknya beli rumah bawah harga pasaran ni adalah sebab bila kita beli saja, kita terus dapat untung.Iyalah, memanglah tak dapat untung dalam bentuk cash lagi sekarang ni. Tapi atas kertas, kita dah untung dah.Sebagai tambahan, elakkan beli rumah atas harga pasaran. Nanti anda yang merana nak keluar modal.

Zaman sekarang ni, nak beli kereta, beli rumah semua kena hutang dengan bank. Semuanya melibatkan pinjaman. Lainlah kalau kita memang anak orang kaya, semua boleh bayar tunai belaka.Dah kena hutang dengan bank tu, faham-faham sendirilah. Rekod CCRIS tu kenalah sentiasa cun melecun. Bank akan tengok CCRIS kita. Kalau CCRIS pun rabak, memang bank tak pandang.CCRIS ni macam rekod hutang. Kat situ, akan disenaraikan semua hutang dan rekod bayaran bulanan. Kalau lambat sebulan, muncul angka 1. Kalau lima bulan tunggak, ada rekod angka '5'. Kalau semua 0, 0, 0 maksudnya kita bayar on time.Untuk CTOS pula, Kalau sebelum ni anda pernah jadi guarantor, malas bayar hutang Court Mammoth, telco, motor ansuran kedai, sila cek CTOS ya.

Dah hutang, mestilah kena bayar, kan. Masing-masing dah sedap guna duit PTPTN tu buat beli iPhone, tengok wayang, belanja makwe, melancong ke oversea, takkan nak buat-buat lupa pula.Kenapa PTPTN masuk CCRIS? Senang cerita, sebab ramai sangat peminjam PTPTN senior kita dulu yang ghaib dan liat nak bayar hutang. Bila hutang dah sampai berbilion ringgit masih belum langsai, PTPTN pun mula resah gelisah.Akhirnya CCRIS muncul untuk memaksa peminjam PTPTN bayar hutang-hutang lama tu. Kalau tak nak bayar juga, tak dapatlah kita beli kereta, rumah dan tak dapat kahwin sebab personal loan tak lulus. Eh!

Kalau gaji kau bermula dengan RM2,500, dapat beli rumah pertama harga RM150,000 pun dah cukup bagus. Dengan harga tu, kalau di Selangor dan pinggiran Kuala Lumpur mungkin boleh dapat flat ataupun apartmen medium cost.Belilah rumah macam ni di pasaran subsale. Ia pasti permulaan yang bagus untuk kau pergi lebih jauh dalam pelaburan hartanah.Rumah besar dan mewah, modal deposit dan kos-kos lain pun besar juga. Sekurang-kurangnya 15% daripada harga rumah. Rumah kecil RM100,000 perlukan modal RM15,000 je.Rumah RM300,000 pula perlukan modal RM45,000. Keluarga kita pun kan kecil lagi. Mengapa bayar lebih untuk bilik yang tidak berpenghuni.Dah macam iklan Trivago.

        facebook.com

Pembeli rumah pertama biasa teruja dengan pelbagai iklan dan tawaran. Itu macam bagus. Ini pun macam bagus. Jangan ikut nafsu, tapi ikut ilmu. Ilmu bukan datang bergolek tapi perlu dicari.Sebelum melabur pada hartanah, lebih baik melabur dahulu pada ilmu. Takut-takut nanti duit untuk melabur entah je mana. Duit 'melebur' lagi adalah. Haha.Kalau kau bijak, memang boleh cepat tangkap. Kalau tak, sampai ke sudahlah tak yakin nak beli rumah. Selepas dapat ilmu, pasti datang sekali keyakinan.Banyak sangat cara nak dapat ilmu tu semua. Datang seminar, baca buku, ebook atau boleh follow FB sifu-sifu berkaitan yang langsung tak lokek ilmu.Tak nak yang berbayar, yang FREE pun berlambak.

Bila nak beli rumah, kita kena berjimat simpan duit. Kalau dah berjimat tu, faham-fahamlah. Setakat kena ejek dan perli tu biasa. Sekali sekala, sembanglah pasal kewangan dan hartanah kat kawan-kawan kita.Untung-untung, kawan kita yang negatif tu, semua akan jadi positif untuk beli rumah cepat. Kalau tak dapat nak buat apa lagi, tukar kawan terus. Haha.Tak saya nafikan, memang generasi Y sekarang ni lain macam. Tak boleh langsung dinasihat melainkan mereka sendiri yang bersedia untuk menerima. Yang ego tinggi sangat tu, rugilah anda.Ingat ni, orang lain takda hak untuk tentukan cara kita berbelanja. Duit kita adalah hak kita. Bila kita susah, bukannya mereka akan bayarkan hutang-hutang kita tu pun.

        facebook.com

Kalau nak tanya apa-apa, senang. Boleh tanya dan terus dapat jawapan. Macam saya, saya ada group WhatsApp STALKER HARTANAH dan beberapa group yang lain.Daripada group ni, saya dapat info hartanah dan networking kaw-kaw daripada sifu-sifu, banker, lawyer, ejen hartanah.Walaupun anda masih belum bersedia untuk beli rumah, tapi bila dah diberi peluang masuk group tu, binalah ukhwah semantap-mantapnya dengan ahli dalam group tu.Layan macam family. Bukan bila ada soalan je kau muncul. Bila dah dapat jawapan yang kau nak, terima kasih pun takda.

Ni memang tip ekspress nak capai matlamat miliki 4 rumah selepas 5 tahun bekerja. Kalau kau kahwin lepas 5 tahun bekerja pun, masih sempat. Automatik achieve.Tapi sebaiknya kau sendirilah kena usaha beli rumah. Jangan mengharap benda yang tak pasti. Banyak bagus kalau kau beli rumah sebelum kahwin ni.Bakal pak mertua pun seronok bila tahu bakal menantunya dah ada rumah. Terus green light. Rumah dapat, orang rumah pun dapat. Bijak!Pesanan saya, kalau kau belum berkahwin, belilah rumah pertama dulu. Akhir kata, jangan dikejar status kahwin muda kalau kita sendiri tak reti nak bersedia.Biarlah kahwin lewat pun takpa, lebih banyak masa untuk berbakti kepada ibu bapa.

Here's What The Rakyat And Politicians Had To Say About Zakir Naik's "Racist" Remarks

Following the outrage surrounding Zakir Naik's remarks about Malaysian Hindus and Chinese-Malaysians, a petition calling for the controversial evangelist to be deported has amassed over 78,000 signatures and counting since it went up on 12 August

Image via Change.org

Backlash against the Indian Muslim preacher escalated after he allegedly suggested that Chinese-Malaysians - whom he referred to as "old guests" - should "go back" before he is asked to leave the country

Image via India Today

Malaysiakini reported that Zakir Naik made such remarks during a talk hosted by the Kelantan state government on Thursday, 8 August. He was reportedly talking about how Islam was peacefully spread in the region through traders when he brought up how "new guests" Chinese, Indians, and British came to Malaysia (then Tanah Melayu) after it became "fully Muslim"."[…] Someone called me a guest. So I said, before me, the Chinese were guests. If you want the new guest to go first, ask the old guest to go back," he said. "The Chinese aren't born here, most of them. Maybe the new generations, yes," he added.

In the same event, Zakir also allegedly claimed that Hindus in Malaysia are more loyal to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi than to Prime Minister Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad

"[Hindus in Malaysia] are half the percentage, in terms of numbers much less, half the (population) percentage of Muslims in India. Yet, the rights they get here is 100 times more than what India gives to minorities," he was quoted as saying by Malaysiakini. "So much so that they support the prime minister of India, but not the prime minister of Malaysia," he added. Malay Mail reported that Zakir has since denied the allegations, saying that his remarks are specifically referring to the charges against him, in that some Hindu groups in Malaysia "opted to support the Modi government in its extradition request despite there being no evidence against me".

Zakir Naik's racially-charged remarks have triggered a fresh wave of calls to deport the fugitive televangelist, who has been living in Malaysia as a permanent resident for three years

Zakir Naik had been on self-imposed exile from his native India since 2016, where he is wanted for allegedly inspiring terrorism and laundering money. Putrajaya is reported to have refused India's repeated requests to extradite the man, with Prime Minister Tun Dr. Mahathir himself saying that he is an "unwelcome guest" who cannot be sent back to India because he runs the risk of being killed.His preaching is also banned in India, Bangladesh, Canada, and the United Kingdom.

Some politicians, including Youth and Sports Minister Syed Saddiq, have also criticised the preacher for "belittling our unity and loyalty"

Orang Cina Malaysia BUKAN TETAMU, tetapi warganegara Malaysia yang cintakan Negara bertuah ini.Kekuatan Malaysia adalah kesatuan rakyatnya. Cukup lah perlekehkan kesatuan & kesetiaan kita.Saya kenal ramai orang cina & india yang sanggup mati pertahankan negara tercinta kita https://t.co/RlGkMipSYD— Syed Saddiq (@SyedSaddiq) August 14, 2019

Minister of Water, Land & Natural Resources Dr. Xavier Jayakumar (statement below) joins fellow Cabinet ministers Gobind Singh Deo and M. Kula Segaran in expressing concerns about the preacher's continued stay in Malaysia and urged Tun Dr. Mahathir to disallow Zakir Naik from remaining in the country.

Read my media statement on Zakir Naik’s unsavoury comments below. He needs to go! pic.twitter.com/51sFKm1gpc— Dr. Xavier Jayakumar (@xavierjayakumar) August 14, 2019

Many Malaysians also took to Twitter to reject Zakir Naik's statements about their fellow countrymen

Perhaps the silver lining behind Zakir Naik's racist outbursts is seeing thousands of Malaysians rejecting his hate speech & defending each otherReading these tweets brings tears to my eyes. Thank you.  Negara ini milik bangsa Malaysia. Zakir Naik jangan cabar perpaduan kita! pic.twitter.com/ayJfgmUTs4— Leeroy Ting (@LeeroyTing) August 14, 2019

That’s rather a lot of my family...who are you to tell us that? https://t.co/eDJh5lnjdp— Marina Mahathir (@netraKL) August 14, 2019

Some cheeky jibes were made:

Zakir Naik is like that annoying aunty that overstayed at your parent's house, and pretend the house is hers and then complains why your brothers and sisters still stay at your parent's house.— (ง'̀-'́)ง smol phat baby (@terrynuriman) August 14, 2019

In response to the backlash, UMNO secretary-general Annuar Musa as well as several of the preacher's supporters have also come out in defence of his quoted remarks

I & many more stand with Dr. Zakir Naik. Mempertahankan nyawa dan darah saudara seagama adalah WAJIB. Dr Zakir done nothing wrong! And I'm not surprised seeing many people here rejecting DZN even by some Muslim since Twitter full with liberal people.— Heefiq (@heefiq) August 14, 2019

Some also pointed out that his remarks may have been taken out of context as they were lifted from an hour-long talk

Totally agree with this. Usually pendakwah mcm Dr ZN ni suka guna analogy and kiasan. Ignorant people will simply judge atas dasar je. Things like this kita kena dgr and fahamkan sampai habis. Just like how u read a tweet without reading the thread, ofc it will be misleading https://t.co/U1Yrna2oBq— Emily (@emilyalova) August 15, 2019

A few issues to be highlighted:1) One must read the whole article first before u opinionate. If u did so, u wudve understood that:i - What he said didnt actually 'mean' as how the title may have portrayed it to beii - Zakir has a weird way of communicating his ideas across https://t.co/rWKjY2EVGB— Yasmin Mustapha (@YasminMustapha) August 14, 2019

You are a very naive young man. Why are you so keen on deporting Zakir Naik? What he said is true. The Indians in Malaysia still consider India as their motherland.— NAWAWI MOHAMAD (@NAWAWIMOHAMAD1) August 15, 2019

At the time of writing, police revealed that they have received 115 reports against Zakir Naik nationwide and that the India-born televangelist is currently under investigation for provocation for the remarks made in his speech last week

Malay Mail reported that Zakir is being probed under Section 504 of the Penal Code for intentional insult with intent to provoke a breach of the peace, according to Federal Criminal Investigation Department director Commissioner Datuk Huzir Mohamed. “Investigation papers were opened following a number of police reports we received. As of today, we received a total of 115 police reports nationwide,” he was quoted as saying.

Meanwhile, the Sarawak government has banned Zakir Naik from entering the state

Sin Chew reported that Deputy Chief Minister Tan Sri Dr James Jemut Masing and State Local Government and Housing Minister Datuk Dr Sim Kui Hian confirmed the decision today, 15 August. Masing was also quoted as saying that the preacher's seditious remarks pose a potential danger to the ethnic and religious harmony of the state, hence the state government's decision to bar him from entering Sarawak.


Jocelyn Chia Defends Her Controversial MH370 Joke By Saying She Made It "Over A 100 Times"

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

New York-based comedian Jocelyn Chia recently shared her side of the story regarding her comedy routine that created international controversy

The comedian told in an interview with CNN that for the past year and a half, she has been using the routine without any problems, stressing that she has used the material "more than a 100 times". She also explained that some necessary context went missing when that particular segment was reduced to a short clip for social media."I fully stand behind my joke, but only within a comedy club setting. Upon reflection, I recognise that how distressing it must have been watching that clip outside of the comedy setting," said Chia.

She added that she has no personal grudge against Malaysia, and it's common culture for comedians to "roast" their live audience

"I have had Malaysian audience members come up to me after my shows to tell me that they loved my gig, which clearly shows they didn't take offence," Chia told CNN.

Since last week, Chia faced criticism for her comedy routine performed in New York, where she poked fun at the MH370 tragedy

Several prominent figures, including Singaporean comedian Kumar and the Singapore High Commisssion, has apologised to Malaysians on her behalf.

The victims, including seven children, died after a landslide tore through the campsite early on Friday, 16 December, while they slept in tents at Batang Kali, a popular hilly area about 50km north of capital Kuala Lumpur.Of the 94 people caught in the landslide, 61 were safe and nine still missing, the Selangor state Fire and Rescue Department said.Search and rescue teams have increased the number of excavators and rescue dogs to find campers who may be trapped under mud and debris, with heavy rain raising concern of further landslides.Hulu Selangor district police chief Suffian Abdullah said police have questioned the operator and two workers of the campsite at Father's Organic Farm.

Authorities have said its owners were allowed to operate organic farms, but had not applied for licences to run three campsites on the property

The farm owners did not immediately respond to a request for comment."Our hearts are closely connected with you, may the deceased rest in peace... Pray for the survivors and the injured," it said on Facebook in a statement addressing victims and their families.Selangor Fire and Rescue Department director Datuk Norazam Khamis on Saturday, 17 December, said the chance of finding more survivors was slim given the lack of oxygen and weight of mud pressing down on the site.An initial investigation showed an embankment of around 450,000m³ of earth had collapsed. The earth fell from an estimated height of 30m and covered an area of about an acre (0.4 hectares).

Touch 'n Go has reiterated yet again that the company will soon remove all parking surcharges

This time, the company says the removal will be completed within this quarter, reports The Star.Commitments to remove parking surcharges, which has been common complaint among users, is not new, as Touch n' Go has been talking about it since 2019.

Speaking to the English daily, Touch 'n Go group chief executive officer (CEO) Effendy Shahul Hamid said:

"I'm very happy to say that by the end of the first quarter, we'll take away all parking surcharges. It requires innovation and some sacrifice on our side, but I think it's the right thing to do."Basically, we've been able to convince our parking operator partners and ensure the surcharge is removed by the end of the first quarter."

The 50 sen reload fee for top-ups, however, will still remain

Although, Touch 'n Go reiterated that the reload fee doesn't go to Touch 'n Go but its agents."The first thing to understand is Touch 'n Go does not receive any of the reload surcharge when cards are reloaded. The surcharge has historically been levied by our reload agents to defray the specific cost of providing the reload service. And when you reload your card, we actually pay the agent that reloads the card for you," Effendy told The Star."We are working intensely with our agents to move this towards a zero-surcharge model. It is a work in progress. Today, some of our agents already do not impose any reload surcharge, like Watsons, Guardian, Caring Pharmacy, Giant, and selected Petronas and Shell stations, to name a few."

By the end of 2021, Touch 'n Go will introduce cards that users can directly top-up from their phones using the Touch 'n Go eWallet

Felda chairman Tan Sri Mohd Isa Abdul Samad said the land development authority was conducting a survey to determine the extent of damage and losses.Agriculture and Agro-Based Industries Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob said a more accurate estimate of damage was not yet possible because most of the farmers were still in relief centres.Tenaga Nasional Bhd’s Kelantan office general-manager Md Yuslan Md Yusof also could not put a figure to the damage but added that the flood damaged equipment such as switchgear, transformers, cables, conductors and electricity poles, mostly in Tanah Merah, Gua Musang and Kuala Krai.Works Minister Datuk Fadillah Yusof said he could only give an accurate estimate on damage once the water subsided.

        thestar.com.my

The burden is already being felt nationwide, even in states that are far away from the flood, starting with the rising cost of vegetables

Also, with the farmers affected, the prices of vegetables are rising nationwide because the commodity has become scarce and inaccessible roads make it difficult to get the produce to market.

Ismail Sabri Says Corrupt Individuals In UMNO Doesn't Mean The Whole Party Is Corrupt

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

Caretaker Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob has argued that UMNO is not a corrupt party despite the "court cluster"

According to Ismail Sabri, because a few individuals are involved in corruption charges, it would be wrong to label UMNO corrupt as a whole because there are three million members in the party.The UMNO vice president was answering questions during his appearance in a special television broadcast titled Bual Bicara Khas Bersama Perdana Menteri - Kestabilan dan Kemakmuran last night, 15 November. One of the questions was how he deals with the public's perception of UMNO as a corrupt party."It is the individuals who have cases against them and the action taken is also against those individuals. It does not mean that UMNO is corrupt," Ismail Sabri said, as reported by Malaysiakini.

Ismail Sabri also claimed that UMNO has never tried to interfere in court cases, despite members of his party being involved in corruption

"For those involved in graft trials, if they are proven guilty, they have to go through the legal process by themselves without involving the party," he said while acknowledging the corruption and criminal charges against several high-ranking UMNO leaders, including its president Datuk Seri Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.According to Ismail Sabri, the investigating authorities such as the MACC or police are free to investigate anyone, and his government has always stuck to its stand of non-interference."We have three million members. If only three or four individuals are involved in corruption charges, you can't say the other three million are corrupt," he emphasised during the special television broadcast.

While Najib Razak, the most high-profile UMNO member at the centre of the "court cluster", is currently serving a 12-year jail sentence in Kajang Prison, Zahid is on trial for allegedly embezzling RM31 million

Back in September, the Shah Alam High Court freed the UMNO president in another case, where he was facing 40 charges of receiving bribes from a company to extend its foreign visa system (VLN) contract.The ruling, however, is being appealed by the prosecution.Meanwhile, Zahid has also been charged with 47 counts of criminal breach of trust involving over RM31 million belonging to a charity foundation he founded called Yayasan Akalbudi.The case will resume on 16 January next year.
