A Judge Allowed This Datin To Escape Jail Time For Abusing Her Maid Because She "Repented"

This is Rozita Mohamad Ali

Image via AMIN FARIJ HASAN/UTUSAN

She is a 'Datin' who abused her maid using items such as a knife, a steel mop, an umbrella, iron rod and cloth hanger among others

According to a report in The Star Online, the act was allegedly committed in a house in Mutiara Damansara between 7am and 12 noon on 21 December 2016.The 'Datin' was first charged with attempted murder of her maid, Suyanti Sutrinso, who at the time was 19 years old and had been working for Rozita for only two weeks.During the five-hour ordeal at the hands of Rozita, the maid suffered serious injuries all over her body, including her head, hands, legs and internal organs.However, the 'Datin' pleaded not guilty to the charge and on 31 December 2016, she was released after paying RM20,000 bail and told to surrender her passport.She was later charged under Section 326 for voluntarily causing grievous hurt. A lesser charge, but it still provides for imprisonment of up to 20 years.Rozita pleaded guilty to this lesser charge after the prosecution called 10 witnesses, including the victim, doctors who treated the maid and a Nepalese security guard who had found the maid slumped unconscious by a drain, according to the Malay Mail.

According to the charge sheet, Suyanti suffered:

Multiple injuries to her eyes, both her legs, her hands and internal organs along with a broken scapula and injuries to her right lung as well as a blood clot near her brain and a fracture to her cheek.In her testimony, Suyanti had said that she climbed a ladder near the fence of her employer's house, jumped over, and ran as fast as she could to escape."I was slapped and punched every day while being called an animal. I feared for my life," she said, adding that she wasn't allowed to bathe and would get to eat only once a day."I was hoping that my employer would change her ways someday. However, I reached my breaking point," the Star Online had reported her as saying.

During the trial, which began on 9 May last year, Rozita's lawyer told judge Mohammed Mokhzani Mokhtar that her client has "repented"

He claimed in front of the Sessions Court judge that Rozita, who tried to kill her maid, had "suffered from extreme pressure and stress" after she was charged in court."My client has repented," the lawyer, Datuk Rosal Azimin Ahmad, told the judge, according to The Star Online, as he applied for the 'good behaviour bond'.

The Sessions Court judge, Mohammed Mokhzani Mokhtar, then meted out a punishment, ordering the 'Datin' to be placed on a good behaviour bond for five years with a surety of RM20,000

The judge's decision meant that Rozita gets to walk out 'free', escaping jail time despite causing grievous hurt by dangerous weapons to Suyanti.According to judge Mokhzani, however, this sentencing does not mean that "the accused had been freed" because if she was found involved in criminal activities, she could be charged again in the same case and sentenced to imprisonment.

Meanwhile, DPP V. Suloshani, who had urged the judge to mete out a jail sentence, has now filed an appeal against the judgement

On the other hand, Bukit Gelugor MP Ramkarpal Singh, who is a lawyer, has argued that the good behaviour bond imposed on Rozita "is illegal and no longer applicable".According to Ramkarpal, the sentence was not an option under the amended Criminal Procedure Code in 2016, reported the Malay Mail Online."With respect, I am of the view that the learned Sessions Court judge fell into error in imposing the said sentence as the law no longer provides for a good behavior bond in cases which involve serious offences which are defined in the Penal Code as an offence punishable with imprisonment for a term of ten years or more."The DAP lawmaker has urged the attorney-general and the Indonesian embassy to file an application to revise the said sentence."I am of the view that the sentence imposed on Rozita is clearly illegal and ought to be revised by the High Court which must be done immediately in the interests of justice."It is common knowledge that a High Court judge has the power to revise such decisions from a lower court even in the absence of an application by any party as he may do so on his own," the Malay Mail Online quoted him as saying.

On social media, common Malaysians reacted with disdain:

Draw clown cartoon 1 year jailBeat up a fellow human being because she is you SLAVENo jail time. This is rich people privilege.— Effi Saharudin  (@1Obefiend) March 16, 2018

Serious miscarriage of justice. The fact that the datin was stressed is not an argument of any sort. This reeks of something fishy. I expect AGC to not appeal, which'll be par for the course for fishy scenarios like this.— esKahn™ (@esKahn) March 16, 2018

"3 Small 1 Big" — Woman's Mother-In-Law Has Horrifying Toilet Flushing Rules

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

Times are hard — the rate of inflation is rising, as are the costs of living, prompting many of us to stay frugal.
But would you be willing to scrimp on the most basic of hygiene habits just to save a little money?

An anonymous user from Taiwan recently posted about their conversation with a co-worker in a Facebook group named "Cheap Mother-In-Laws Discussion Room".The user revealed that their co-worker was complaining about her mother-in-law, whom she lived with, as the latter's frugality was crossing into unhygienic territory. Allegedly, her mother-in-law required the toilet to be filled with "3 small and 1 big" before she was allowed to flush.Confused, the user asked her to elaborate, whereupon their female colleague revealed to their horror that "big" meant defecation and "small" meant urination.

Many netizens were horrified at the prospect of not flushing after every use

One user exclaimed, "That's not a toilet, it's a waste pit!"

Image via Facebook

Another user sarcastically quipped, "Why use a toilet then? Just learn from people in ancient times and dig a pit in the ground."

Image via Facebook

One user was amazed that something as basic as going to the toilet required a standard operating procedure, or SOP. Stating the mother-in-law's "#3Small1BigPolicy" made her stricter than a communist regime.

Image via Facebook

Meanwhile, some users used the comment thread as an opportunity for group therapy, detailing similar experiences

One user lamented, "My mother-in-law has the same disgusting habit! It pisses me off and all I can do is make her wash the toilet bowl."

Image via Facebook

One user even encountered resistance from their father when they tried to get him to flush regularly. They said, "My dad does this too. After scolding him for ages, he suddenly took out a plastic bottle. He was trying to imply that if I didn't allow him to urinate three times before flushing, he would use the bottle to collect it himself. It's genuinely so disgusting."

Image via Facebook

However, there were a few who defended the mother-in-law in question

A Facebook user wrote, "This is a habit most old people have. Their mentality is that if you save water, you save money."

Image via Facebook

Another stated that the mother-in-law could've been born into poverty, necessitating a thrifty lifestyle, and that the user's colleague could simply choose not to live with her."What wasn't a problem at first has become a disgusting problem in the eyes of the daughter-in-law. Now, whose problem is that?" she said.

"You Shouldn't Be With A Chinese" – Racist Man Spits On Indian Man For Having A Chinese GF

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

An Indian man was allegedly spat on by a stranger while he was walking to Uniqlo in Orchard Central in Singapore

The victim, who declined to be named, said that the incident happened while he was on a date with his Chinese girlfriend on Sunday, 18 December, reported Wake Up Singapore.According to the victim, a Singaporean Chinese man in a dark blue shirt and jeans allegedly spat at him and his girlfriend while they were walking on the bridge connecting Orchard Central and Orchard Gateway.

He then asked the stranger why he spat on them, to which the man replied, "You should not be with a Chinese girl! Your girlfriend should be my girlfriend!"

The Chinese man allegedly spat at him again and flipped the bird at the couple before boarding the escalator."I didn't know what to do. Got so angry that I teared up," the victim told Wake Up Singapore.He went on to say that the incident surprised him because he had previously experienced racial microaggressions, but never from someone he had never met."This was the first time a completely random stranger had the audacity to do something like this," he added.

The couple was allegedly spat on while they were walking to a Uniqlo store located at Orchard Central.

The Indian man has since filed a police report regarding the ordeal

Unfortunately, the victim was told that only the police could access the closed-circuit television (CCTV) footage, which documented the exact time frame of when the incident occurred, so he could not retrieve it.AsiaOne has confirmed that the police received his report. An officer from the Tanglin Police Divisional Investigation Branch has also been assigned to investigate the case.

In June of last year, a video of a Singaporean Chinese man telling off an interracial couple for dating outside of their own race went viral:

"I have nothing against Indians, but I think it is racist for an Indian to marry a Chinese girl," he said.

Years Of Empty Promises And Underdevelopment Turn Sarawak's Natives Into Anti-BN Activists

Stories of terribly underdeveloped areas in East Malaysia are becoming so common that most of us are left wondering about the unexplained gap in development in Sabah and Sarawak.
Compared to cities like Kuala Lumpur and Penang or even small towns in west Malaysia, living conditions in certain parts of Sabah and Sarawak still seems like it's stuck in the 20th century.

It is  now 58 years after independence and we are just five years away from Vision 2020, but major parts of the country still remains divided and unnaturally undeveloped compared to the urban areas in Peninsular Malaysia. While every other year or two, politicians start discussions and conversations on building yet another magnanimous tower or skyscraper in the country's capital, the number of people in East Malaysia that are surviving without basic necessities, including water and electricity supply are increasing. Elections come and go every five years, more Malaysia plans and budgets are drawn with huge sums of allocation for the development of Sabah and Sarawak, but in reality, villages do not have water, electricity or paved roads, schools are located hours away from villages, and more ancestral lands are being taken away from the villagers, slowly but surely.

Disappointed with the lack of progress in their villages, Sarawak natives are turning into "anti-BN activists", as reported by The Malaysian Insider, yesterday, 3 November

"Kami mahu hak tanah adat (NCR) diiktirafkan (We want our native customary rights (NCR) lands to be recognized)

Iban farmer Jimmy Saban did not care much about politics until the day government men, some of them armed with guns, came to take away the land that’s been in his clan and family for generations.Saban is one of the growing numbers of unassuming farmers, foragers and peasants who are now anti-Barisan Nasional activists, and whose fervent talks against the Sarawak government could be a factor in the coming state elections.Saban’s story of how tribal lands are still being unscrupulously taken away counters the narrative that is being churned out by chief minister Tan Sri Adenan Satem’s administration and that of the federal BN.In the 11th Malaysia Plan and the recent Budget 2016, Putrajaya also earmarked money for what they claimed as measures to secure NCR land. Saban and many other farmer-activists are out to challenge these claims and show that Adenan and Putrajaya do not mean what they say.

Deemed as Barisan Nasional's stronghold and "safe deposit", Sabahans and Sarawakians contributed to many of BN's election victories with their unwavering support and commitment in the past

Election campaigns are usually filled with many promises of new roads, fresh water supply, electricity, funds to develop lands for farming, among other development ideas. The political parties win the elections, usually reveal more development plans and then years and decades pass by with hardly anything done. Should they start the projects, some are left undone like the promised road project in Pitas that was abandoned halfway through. The villagers spent 15 years reaching out to the government to finish it and when all that failed, they ended up building their own road.

With no basic necessities, dilapidated schools that are hardly reachable, the east Malaysians have continued to be loyal to the ruling government, believing their promises or even choosing to remain apolitical

Schools in Sabah and Sarawak are not only located far away from the settlements and villages, but the journey in itself is dangerous for the young children. Instead of focusing on their studies and homework, the kids are forced to be up at wee hours in the morning, get ready in darkness, and trek to school for hours. There are even reported cases of fatalities that happened when the children are bracing through high current rivers just to get to school. All this to get to schools that are in ruins,  with some frail enough to fall apart and injure school students.

If living without water, electricity, immediate medical facilities isn't bad enough, the ancestral lands of Sabahans and Sarawakians are being taken away from them, in the most unscrupulous ways

The thriving local logging industry is supported by the vast rainforest of Malaysia, with most of it situated in Sabah and Sarawak. To meet the growing demands for timber, some local corporation owners resort to horrible means for the sake of increasing their profits. The natives, the people living in rural areas in Sabah and Sarawak are mostly living in their ancestral lands and the elders of the community are mostly involved in farming, fishing and treat the forests as their home.Sadly, it isn't only their lands that are taken away; there are multiple reported rape cases of Penan women and girls by the staffs of logging companies. They are constantly threatened and exploited by outsiders looking to make profits out of their livelihoods and lands.

Imagine being dragged out of your homes forcefully, to uproot your lives from everything you know and ordered to move from one place to another by a handful of strangers; that pretty much sums up the lives of rural communities in East Malaysia

While it is a common knowledge that most Malaysians are originally from various parts of Asia, with most originating from China, India, and Indonesia, the natives of this country, the Orang Asli, are the true owners of the land. But as most Malaysians comfortably own houses and continue leading their lives on their own terms, the natives of this country are fighting to protect their homes with everything they have from the greedy lawmakers and exploitative business people.

Meanwhile, the new group of anti-BN activists, claim that the reason for their sudden change in allegiance and uprising against the ruling government is because the government has "betrayed" them

Three of the activists interviewed are from different tribes in different parts of Sarawak. But their stories are remarkably similar. Saban and the residents of three longhouses along Sungai Pandan claimed that in 2007 they were duped by state government officers into relinquishing their claims to their ancestral lands. “They told us to fill and sign these forms to confirm our lands these belonged to us. We signed. One week later they came and seized our land. They took the land for an acacia plantation company,” claimed Iban farmer Jimmy Saban, whose longhouse is three hours by boat from Bintulu.

He (Saban) said the 46 families lost about one third of 4,000 ha which they claimed was theirs. The land seized was planted with oil palm, pepper, fruit and vegetables, all of which was destroyed.“This land is what I survive on. The crops feed me, my wife and my grand-daughter,” said Saban.

This nightmare happened in 2007, when men, clad in Sarawak local council uniforms barged into their homes with M-16 rifles and destroyed all the storage huts that the villagers painstakingly built

The officers went about their work as men in light blue police uniforms stood guard with M-16 assault rifles. Female villagers cried and pleaded with some of the local council officers to stop the demolition and have pity on them.

        themalaysianinsider.com

Following this, in 2011, a group of villagers from Sarawak lodged a police report against a logging company for cheating and forging their signatures to sign away their Native Customary Rights (NCR)

Based on a report by Hornbill Unleashed in February 2011, the company, Quality Concrete, is owned by then Chief Minister of Sarawak, Taib Mahmud's sister, Radziah Mahmud, cousin Hamed Sepawi and Mahmud’s brother-in-law and former Sarawak State Secretary Abdul Aziz Bin Husain.According to the police report, forged and forced signatures of the land owners were used in documents that suggest that the natives are allowing the loggers to enter their lands and to log as they please.

In a separate case, the villagers still have a pending lawsuit against logging contractor Loyal Billion and timber licensee Quality Concrete, that have allegedly trespassed on their ancestral lands

A “Deed of Settlement and Undertaking” dated 30 August 2010 and witnessed by another Kuching-based lawyer was made between “The Native Customary Rights Claimants” with almost 300 names and signatures from some 15 villages and the logging contractor Loyal Billion Sdn Bhd.The key “settlement” involves the company paying each ‘pintu’ or household dwelling RM250 as the one-off “Ex-gratia Compensation” and the villagers “collectively and individually” agree to the extinguishment by compensation, of their NCR claims, thus allowing the company to extract all merchantable timber.The villagers are then not allowed to make further claims against the company “for compensation or proprietary or personal rights the merchantable timber in the said area now or in the future.”

Prior to being subjected to such inhuman acts, these peace-loving natives were faithful BN supporters.
In fact, one of the them actually walked for so long during one of BN's campaigns, till one of his toenails came off.

Far in the northern highlands, Yaris Semayong (pic, right) related how he had been a committed BN supporter and activist and had canvassed for votes for Sarawak BN in the 90s. Semayong was slowly turned off by BN when he saw how the Sarawak government did not deliver on its promises and that their state assembly representatives were self-centred. “Then I started supporting (Sarawak PKR chief) Baru Bian, whom I knew since he was little and he has helped a lot of people with Native Customary Rights (NCR) cases."

        themalaysianinsider.com

Changing sentiments, decades after putting their devoted faith on BN lawmakers, the natives are now starting to be more politically aware and choose to no longer fall for empty promises and words

Reasons for their change in allegiance can stem from the major, life-changing developments DAP's Impian Sarawak has been working on in various rural areas in Sarawak, Sabah and other underdeveloped places throughout Malaysia. From building gravity-feed water system, roads, to running free education and medical camps in the villages, Impian's volunteers and the DAP politicians that spearhead these projects, have managed to give these villagers a beacon of hope and changes that are actually useful for them. Now, the people living in most of Sarawak's rural areas no longer have to walk for hours just to get a bucket of water or lead their lives in darkness, thanks to Impian's initiatives that have brought fresh water supply and electricity to all these villages. Thoughtful changes and genuine interest in the people's lives prove to be excellent qualities that these political leaders posses.

In line with that, Kedup assemblyman Martin Ben has recently revealed that, around 60 villages in the area, may get fresh water supply in the next five years, under the 11th Malaysia Plan, according to a report by the Borneo Post, yesterday. He also talked about how all the villages in Kedup are connected by roads but some are yet to be tar-sealed and there are still villages in that area that do not have electricity.“God-willing, these projects will be completed under the 11th Malaysia Plan,” he added.

On another note, after decades of promises and plans drawn to improve the schools in East Malaysia, most schools in rural Sabah and Sarawak are still in shambles:

The Malaysian novelist impresses judges with 'The Garden of Evening Mists', a tale about memory and forgetting in the shadow of second world war.

        guardian.co.uk

Literary critic Maya Jaggi, who is a judge, championed the book for working on so many levels and with so many themes while also being a tale driven by mystery.

        cnn.com

"This comes as a huge shock. It's such a strong list that I'm speechless," said Tan, who beat four other shortlisted books to win the $30,000 prize.

        cnn.com

The prize, first awarded in 2007, is for works by Asian writers written in or translated into English, and is intended to widen exposure of Asian literature in the English-speaking world.

Tan: "Malaysian writers are at a disadvantage because there haven’t been other Malaysian writers being read by a worldwide audience".

Ini Perkara Yang Anda Perlu Tahu Tentang 'Pelan Pemulihan Negara' & 4 Fasa Peralihan PKP

Follow kami di Telegram, jadi antara yang terawal untuk dapatkan berita dan artikel-artikel menarik di SAYS Seismik.

Perdana Menteri, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin hari ini mengumumkan Pelan Pemulihan Negara  yang merupakan satu strategi peralihan keluar secara berfasa dari kemelut pandemik Covid-19

Image via Berita RTM (Facebook)

Kerajaan telah merangka pelan ini dengan membuat pertimbangan sebaik mungkin bagi memastikan setiap keputusan yang diambil adalah untuk melindungi nyawa dan memastikan kelangsungan hidup rakyat Malaysia.Strategi Pelan Pemulihan Negara ini merangkumi empat fasa dan akan melibatkan pelan peralihan fasa PKP secara berperingkat. Setiap fasa pelan pemulihan ini berpaksikan kepada data yang bersandarkan tiga indikator ambang utama ataupun threshold untuk beralih dari satu fasa ke fasa seterusnya.Indikator Pertama ialah keadaan penularan COVID-19 dalam komuniti berdasarkan bilangan kes jangkitan harian;Indikator Kedua ialah keupayaan sistem kesihatan awam berdasarkan kadar penggunaan katil di Wad ICU; danIndikator Ketiganya ialah tahap populasi yang dilindungi berdasarkan peratusan yang telah lengkap menerima dua dos suntikan vaksin.

Kerajaan akan menimbang peralihan daripada fasa pertama  kepada fasa kedua PKP setelah:

Purata kes harian Covid-19 menurun di bawah 4,000 kes;Sistem kesihatan awam tidak lagi berada di peringkat kritikal termasuk kadar penggunaan katil di ICU pulih ke paras sederhana; dan10 peratus populasi telah menerima 2 dos suntikan vaksin.

Fasa Kedua merupakan kesinambungan daripada Fasa Pertama dengan aktiviti sosial dan kawalan pergerakan terus dikawal dengan ketat. Semasa Fasa Kedua:Aktiviti ekonomi akan dibuka secara berperingkat dengan membenarkan kapasiti pekerja sehingga 80% di premis;Pendekatan senarai positif diteruskan iaitu hanya sektor yang tersenarai dibenarkan beroperasi manakala yang tidak tersenarai masih ditutup. Senarai positif daripada Fasa 1 akan juga diperluaskan semasa Fasa 2 dengan menambahkan beberapa sektor; danAktiviti sosial dan rentas negeri masih tidak dibenarkan.

Kerajaan akan beralih kepada Fasa Ketiga sekiranya berjaya mencapai nilai ambang atau threshold berikut, iaitu:

Purata kes harian COVID-19 menurun ke paras bawah 2 ribu kes;Sistem kesihatan awam berada di tahap selesa dengan penurunan kadar penggunaan katil di ICU ke paras mencukupi; dan40 peratus populasi negara ini telah menerima dua dos suntikan vaksin.Nilai ambang ini dijangka dapat dicapai paling awal pada akhir bulan Ogos 2021.

Gambar sekadar hiasan.
Image via Berita Harian

Semasa Fasa Ketiga ini:Semua sektor ekonomi akan dibenarkan beroperasi kecuali aktiviti yang tersenarai dalam senarai negatif, iaitu aktiviti yang berisiko tinggi menyebabkan jangkitan Covid-19 atau melibatkan keramaian;Sektor ekonomi akan kekal dibenarkan beroperasi pada kapasiti 80% seperti Fasa Kedua; danAktiviti sosial termasuk pendidikan dan sukan tertentu boleh mula dibuka secara berperingkat.Sidang Parlimen boleh diadakan dalam Fasa ini iaitu sekitar bulan September atau Oktober dengan mengikut SOP yang ketat.

Kerajaan akan dapat beralih kepada Fasa Keempat sekiranya berjaya mencapai nilai ambang berikut, iaitu:

Purata kes harian COVID-19 menurun ke paras bawah 500 kes;Sistem kesihatan awam berada di paras selamat termasuk kadar penggunaan katil di ICU di paras mencukupi; dan60 peratus populasi negara ini telah menerima dua dos suntikan vaksin.Berdasarkan unjuran pelaksanaan Program Imunisasi Covid-19 Kebangsaan, peralihan ini dijangka dapat dilaksanakan seawal akhir bulan Oktober 2021.

Gambar sekadar hiasan.
Image via Sinar Harian

Fasa Keempat adalah fasa terakhir Pelan Pemulihan Negara di mana kita seboleh mungkin dapat kembali semula kepada norma kehidupan seharian:Semua sektor ekonomi akan dibuka, lebih banyak aktiviti sosial akan dibenarkan, perjalanan rentas negeri dibolehkan dan pelancongan domestik juga akan dibuka tertakluk kepada SOP yang ketat.Fasa ini dapat dilaksanakan apabila bilangan kes Covid-19 adalah rendah, sistem kesihatan awam di tahap selamat dan program vaksinasi telah mencapai tahap imuniti berkelompok atau herd immunity selewatnya pada akhir tahun ini.

'Bila Nak Ada Anak?' - Wanita Ini Rasa Sayu Disoal Soalan Sama Sepanjang 6 Tahun Berkahwin

"Bila nak ada anak?'

Mungkin itu antara soalan yang sering diajukan buat pasangan yang sudah lama mendirikan rumahtangga. Biasalah jika sudah berkumpul saudara-mara yang sudah lama tak berjumpa, mestilah soalan ini antara yang akan ditanya.Nak nak musim raya ni betul tak? Bagi mereka yang sudah lali saban tahun diajukan dengan soalan begini pastinya akan tenang dan tak mahu ambil peduli. Masuk telinga kanan, keluar telinga kiri. Tetapi sebenarnya itulah soalan dan alasan buat sesetengah orang beranggapan "yelah awak tu tak ada anak lagi boleh lah...bla bla bla"Ayat-ayat sebeginilah yang sebenarnya membuat pasangan-pasangan yang sudah lama berkahwin terasa.

Begitulah seperti yang dikongsikan oleh Zana Adieyza di laman Facebook. Hatinya sayu apabila diajukan soalan sebegitu.

Image via Adiey Adieyza/Facebook

[ YE, KAMI BELUM ADA ANAK SENDIRI..... ]- Memang la boleh berbelanja lebih, tak ada anak lagi kan..- Memang la rumah kemas jer, tak ada anak yg nak sepahkan..- Memang la boleh cuti raya lama, tak ada anak sekolah kan..- Memang la boleh pergi bercuti selalu, tak payah susah2 nak bawak anak kan.. - Memang la boleh gambar berdua sweet2, tak ada anak yg kacau kan..- Memang la boleh pergi umrah awal, tak perlu fikir nak tinggalkan anak lama2 kan mana kan..Sekarang ni Zana nak tanya,"Salah ke kami suami isteri dapat rasa semua nikmat rezeki tu di saat perkahwinan kami diuji dengan ketiadaan anak? Atau awak rasa ada anak tu membataskan kehidupan awak?"Jangan ingat yg tak ada anak ni semuanya boleh belanja mewah, kita tak tau belanja dan simpanan dia macam mana.. Kita tak tau apa perancangan hidup mereka.. Kita tak tau apa2 sebab kita orang luar.. Kita tak tau apa perasaan mereka setiap kali soalan "bila nak ada anak?" tu ditanya..

        facebook.com

Baginya siapa sahaja pasti berasa sayu sekiranya sudah lama berumahtangga tapi tidak dikurniakan anak. Tambah sedih, apabila soalan itu ditanya di hadapan orang ramai dan ditertawakan seolah-olah pasangan tersebut serba kekurangan.

Image via Zana Adieyza/Facebook

Kebanyakan pasangan yg masih menanti rezeki anak ni, sangatlah bahagia.. Diberi rezeki utk lebih mengenal hati pasangan.. Sebab tu secara automatik kita akan nampak pasangan ni lebih mesra sebab memang rutin seharian mereka semuanya dilakukan berdua..Sedih? Tipu kalau tak ada rasa sedih tu, tapi jarang sekali dan selalunya perasaan sedih tu sekejap sangat.. Selebihnya, mereka lebih suka memilih untuk teruskan kehidupan normal seperti biasa, berusaha, berdoa dan percaya dengan ketentuan rezeki drpd Allah..Percaya tak hampir semua yg belum ada anak ni, bila diasak dengan soalan "bila nak ada anak" ni akan rasa lagi teruk sedihnya daripada rasa sedih menerima hakikat masih belum ada anak.. Sebab soalan2 tu la kebanyakan mereka jadi sayu hati, rajuk hati, menjauh diri dan rasa rendah diri..Lagi sedih bila soalan tu ditanya di hadapan orang ramai.. Diusik seolah2 suami isteri ni berdosa berkahwin tanpa anak.. Diketawakan seolah2 pasangan ni serba kekurangan..

        facebook.com

Beliau bukanlah berniat untuk meminta simpati tetapi lebih kepada menghormati. Katanya, cuba letakkan diri kita dahulu di tempat orang-orang seperti ini sebelum berkata sesuatu.

Image via Zana Adieyza/Facebook

Maaf yer.. Zana bukan minta simpati, cuma minta kita semua sama2 belajar menghormati..Hormati perasaan orang sekeliling kita.. Letakkan diri kita di tempat orang lain sebelum berkata sesuatu.. Bila kita cuba jaga hati dan air muka orang lain, insyaAllah Allah akan jaga hati, diri dan maruah kita..Yang dah kahwin, bersyukur ada pasangan hidup.. Bayangkan kalau kita masih belum ada pasangan hidup.. Bayangkan kalau kita tiba2 kehilangan pasangan hidup..Yang belum kahwin, bersyukur dan bersabar. Mungkin Allah nak bagi kita peluang lebih berbakti lama kepada ibu dan ayah..Yang dah ada anak, bersyukur ada anak.. Anak adalah saham akhirat kita.. Betapa bertuahnya mempunyai anak yg mampu mendoakan kita setiap hari.. Bayangkan hidup kita kalau masih belum dikurniakan anak..Yang belum ada anak, bersyukur Allah bagi nikmat rezeki bersabar.. Bayangkan jika kita ada anak, adakah hati kita boleh sesabar itu? Allah bagi peluang kita utk lebih meluangkan masa bersama insan yg sudi terima baik buruk diri kita.. Allah bagi kita masa lebih utk lebih dekat kepada-Nya..

"Kita sebagai hamba-Nya memang selayaknya diuji.. Setiap di antara kita berbeza ujiannya.. Tapi percayalah yg Allah menguji sesuai dgn kemampuan diri kita.." katanya.

Image via Zana Adieyza/Facebook

Yakinlah Allah bagi apa yg kita perlu dan bukan apa yg kita mahu.. Kita merancang, tapi Allah sebaik-baik perancang.. Allah Maha Mengetahui sedangkan kita tidak..Kita sebagai hamba-Nya memang selayaknya diuji.. Setiap di antara kita berbeza ujiannya.. Tapi percayalah yg Allah menguji sesuai dgn kemampuan diri kita..Belajar menerima Qada dan Qadar Allah.. InsyaAllah semuanya akan jadi lebih indah..Zana & Adiey,Trying To Conceive (TTC) for 6 years.

        facebook.com

Hal jodoh dan rezeki itu kan di tangan Tuhan. Pada kami tak salah bertanya, cuma mungkin cara bertanya tu yang tak kena. Apa-apa pun kami doakan buat semua pasangan di luar sana semoga diberikan rezeki yang melimpah-ruah dan kekal bahagia selamanya =)

NUTP Sec-Gen Offers His Sincere Apology After Dismissing Abuse Allegations In Schools

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

National Union of the Teaching Profession (NUTP) secretary-general Harry Tan has offered his apology amidst Malaysians calling him out for perpetuating rape culture when he dismissed calls to investigate allegations of abuse and sexual harassment at the hands of teachers

According to Harry, the NUTP does not condone any form of sexual harassment.In a statement on Friday, 7 May, the NUTP sec-gen apologised for not making the union's stand clear."Please accept my sincere apology. Neither me nor the NUTP would ever support any teacher who perpetrates the systemic nature of sexual harassment, rape, and abuse in schools," he said."The point I was trying to make was that the majority of the country's 450,000 teachers are dedicated, hard-working, and caring educators. Unfortunately, that did not come across clearly."

Harry had gone on the defensive during an interview earlier this week when questioned if the NUTP will investigate the allegations

In the interview with Astro Awani on Wednesday night, 5 May, the NUTP sec-gen asked for "facts" despite the fact that hundreds of former and current students have been coming out to share their experience."How is it a widespread problem? Where are the statistics? Where is the data? Who are they talking about? How many schools are involved? We have 450,000 teachers in the country, we have 10,000 schools. How many schools are they talking about? Give me the facts," he shot back when asked.

“How is this a widespread problem? Where's the data, how many schools are we talking about?” says Harry Tan, Sec-Gen of NUTP when asked by @melisa_idris & @sharaadkuttan if the Teachers' Union is concerned abt abuse allegations in schools. #ConsiderThis at https://t.co/6oMihRqLO5 pic.twitter.com/0vYnThzOmY— Astro AWANI (@501Awani) May 5, 2021

Both Harry and NUTP president Aminuddin Awang, however, did not state if the union will carry out any investigations into the allegations

Aminuddin, instead, asked victims to bring the issue to justice.He echoed Harry's remarks."There are 450,000 teachers in schools across our country and it is not fair for any party to generally point fingers at our teachers in matters relating to sexual harassment. Our teachers are trained, dedicated, disciplined, committed, and work hard for our students," the NUTP president said.

MOH Thanks Captain Hamdan For Safely Bringing Home The First Batch Of COVID-19 Vaccines

The Ministry of Health (MOH) took to its official Facebook page to thank the captain of a MASkargo Airbus A330-300 that safely brought home the first batch of the Pfizer-BioNTech's COVID-19 vaccines

MOH identified the captain as Hamdan Che Ismail."He is the person responsible for flying the aircraft that brought home the first COVID-19 vaccine to our country," the ministry wrote in its post, which has since gone viral with over 8,000 shares.Captain Hamdan flew two special cargo boxes that arrived in Singapore from Belgium.The boxes were labelled as AKE 10296 MH and AKE 10679 MH. The vaccine distribution will be handled by DHL Express, which is the appointed agent for global distribution of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccines.

Captain Hamdan, who is from Tumpat, Kelantan, has served MAS for 29 years. But the hour it took him to fly the vaccines from Singapore to here was the most nerve-racking of his entire career, he said.

According to Hamdan, he also needed to ensure the correct temperature was maintained in the aircraft at all times, so as not to affect the effectiveness of the vaccines which must be stored at -70 degrees Celcius.Bernama reported him admitting that he was a little nervous about today's task."When I thought about the COVID-19 vaccine supply on the plane, I was worried that it (the supply) could get spoilt... Alhamdulillah, the vaccine supply has now reached Malaysia," the pilot was quoted as saying.

The aircraft was decorated with the Jalur Gemilang livery

Hamdan said he and five other crew members of the flight, namely an assistant pilot, two cabin crew, an officer from MASKargo, and an engineer, left for Singapore at 6am today and arrived an hour later.

			When I arrived at KLIA, I felt jubilant, overwhelmed, and excited to have successfully brought the COVID-19 vaccines to the country.

Taxi Industry Does U-Turn, Now Wants To Work With Uber To Save Themselves

In an unexpected turn of events, local taxi companies are looking to establish an unlikely alliance with Uber to help the dying taxi industry

Image via Kwik News

According to a report by The Sun, taxi companies and the popular ridesharing service will sign a memorandum of understanding (MoU) as soon as this week."Instead of continuous war against Uber, it's time to embrace the enemy," taxi companies told the English daily.

Around 500 cabbies will take part in an Uber pilot stage that's set to take place next month

Image via Hype

“This will allow the taxi industry and Uber to coexist, especially since SPAD has given Uber the green light to operate. It would benefit taxi drivers to share a platform with Uber, whose strong reach would enable them to earn more,” said Big Blue Taxi Services founder Shamsubahrin Ismail as quoted by FMT.

The companies are also in the midst of overhauling their business models since Uber and other ridesharing services are largely conducted using cashless transactions

Image via Wall Street Journal

"We have to move fast since e-hailing will be regulated soon after the law amendment in Parliament this month.However, we will continue to operate as metered cab operators. But if a taxi driver decides to take bookings via Uber, then the cabbie has to follow the fare rate set by Uber, whether it is lower or higher than the current regulated fare by SPAD," said a taxi company managing director.

Video Shows Driver In Sungai Buloh Ramming Into Other Vehicles To Evade PDRM Officers

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

Earlier today, 26 February, the driver of a car was captured on video ramming into other vehicles at a traffic light to escape from cops

In the video, the driver of the Proton Waja with registration plate MAS 175 is seen crashing into at least two other vehicles at the Sierramas traffic light in Sungai Buloh, Selangor.During the incident, the Proton Waja hits a lorry and a Perodua Myvi while backing up and ramming into vehicles both at the back and front to make space.

In the video, one of the officers is seen trying to get the driver to alight from the car while another is forced to open fire at the tyres of the car

However, the Proton Waja driver continues to ignore them both and the shooting.The driver, who was reportedly trying to escape Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) officers, eventually manages to speed off by squeezing between the lorry and the Perodua Myvi.The entire incident is said to have taken place around 1pm and was captured on video by the driver of another car, who was right behind the suspect's Proton Waja.The video, which is about a minute and 45 seconds long, has gone viral.

It is not yet known what led to the driver's actions, but Petaling Jaya district police chief ACP Nik Ezanee Mohd Faisal, while confirming the incident, said further details on the incident will be issued later

Meanwhile, the suspect along with his friend has since left his car and is said to have fled on foot.


foodpanda Walker Tears Up After Woman Unexpectedly Gifts Him Lunch During Work

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

A woman living in Kuala Lumpur had her day made after striking up a random conversation with a foodpanda 'Pink Walker', a delivery person who sends all their orders on foot, last week

Sharing the encounter on The Republic of Bangsar Facebook group, small business owner Dayana Reza hopes that the story could inspire others to practise random acts of kindness too."Do a random act of kindness every day, even if it is just a warm greeting, a smile, or a silent prayer for another," she encouraged."I don't know if it is fate, but I got [the same foodpanda walker] as my delivery warrior twice in a week. First for my nasi kerabu and second for my nasi goreng kampung today within the area," she wrote last Thursday, 17 June.

After receiving her food the first time, Dayana said she passed the foodpanda walker an Apollo cake and a wafer biscuit, just as small tokens of appreciation

He said, "Thank you so much, Miss. It really made my day."Dayana wrote that she did not know his story or why he was a deliveryman, but he spoke very well, and was super friendly and grateful for the snacks."I was glad I made his day just a little bit better after walking around in the hot sun, to and fro, up and down the hill just to make extra money."The next day, she was pleasantly surprised to meet him again and happily gave him the extra nasi goreng she ordered in preparation for whoever delivered her food.Caught off guard, Dayana said he started to tear up at her random act of kindness, speechless at the sight of the meal she was offering to him."I was so touched and had a moment of reflection [too] when he started tearing up. He was so grateful and it was just not an easy sight to see a kind man break down in the midst of his work.""I held my tears back and only cried my eyeballs out to my mum over the phone as I went back up to my house," she said.

She got to know later that his name is Ramesh and that he has been working with foodpanda full-time for almost a month now

After receiving many well-wishes for the both of them on Facebook, Dayana reached out to the delivery walker, who was thankful for the kind words and sent his warmest regards back to all the netizens.He shared with Dayana that he was previously working with Singtel and had ventured into a business that did not take off, especially after he went through a bad accident nearly two years ago.Now, living in Puchong with his girlfriend while his family is in Johor, the 41-year-old does foodpanda deliveries on foot as he does not own a motorcycle.He takes public transport from Puchong to the city centre every day — the bus to KL Sentral, then the Light Rail Transit (LRT) to the KL Gateway-Universiti station, where he is based.Dayana said kind souls have also previously approached him to offer him financial assistance, but he has politely declined them as he believes there are others who are more in need compared to him. "He is saving funds to go into other ventures with his partner when things stabilise in the future," Dayana told SAYS when contacted.

After those brief encounters with Ramesh, Dayana said they were moments "that truly make our lives so much more meaningful"

On the Facebook group, she wrote, "I humbly ask for anybody else here, if you do have some extra funds from your business or your job, or if you happen to have room for another mee goreng or Ramly burger, one random act to belanja (treat) someone can go such a long way.""I hope more of us can do this to really support and be there for one another in these tough times. Some of us still have our jobs, some of us still can survive and put food on the table, yet some are really struggling and living day to day," she said."Even if you can't donate or get a meal for someone, it is okay, just always be kind to these riders and random strangers who are making an honest living to get our essentials or needs to us during this pandemic."She added that we never know anyone's full story, so it is important to remember to smile and greet everyone politely."Trust me, you will never regret being humble and nice, no matter what," she said.


22-Year-Old Tanjung Karang Woman Raped Twice By Bangladeshi Worker

A 22-year-old mentally challenged woman from Tanjung Karang was raped twice by a Bangladeshi worker after she was forced by her employer to share a room with eight male Bangaldeshi workers

A disabled and mentally challenged woman was allegedly raped two times by her Bangladeshi roommate. The woman, who only wanted to be identified as Ng, was raped in a room in her company hostel at Taman OUG, which she shared with eight male Bangaldeshi workers.

        thestar.com.my

The woman, who only wanted to be identified as Ng, needed a place to stay when she came to the city to work as a cashier at a car wash company in January

“Initially I stayed with my manager, but after two months, in early March, I was sent to stay in the company’s hostel, a shop house in Taman OUG. Only when I reached there did I realise that I was sharing a room with two Bangladeshi men,” she said, adding that she was the only female among eight Bangladeshi men in the hostel.

        thesundaily.my

The woman said she asked for a room to herself but her request was denied. A week later, one of her roommates raped her.

“I told my manager about it and begged her to not make me stay there but she ignored me,” she said very slowly in Mandarin. She added that the manager told her that if she was not happy with her room, she could find her own place.

        thestar.com.my

"My family is poor. I earn so little. I don’t have enough to pay. So I had to stay," she said, adding that she was ashamed to tell her family about the rape

One month later, the same man raped her again, this time at knife-point.

        thesundaily.my

"I was very scared. I was lost. I did not know what to do. Then a few weeks later I found out that I was pregnant," she said, breaking down into tears

She finally told her problems to a friend who convinced her to lodge a police report at the Brickfields police headquarters on May 22.

        thestar.com.my

“Police arrested the man but my employer got him out on bail. Since then there has been no action from the police and they have not even brought me for a medical check-up,” she said.

        thesundaily.my

Her ordeal was not over as she said she was threatened by her manager who said she would be arrested for lodging a false report

“I later found out that the police had closed the case after listening to my employer and the other Bangladeshi workers who claimed that the man was my lover,” she said, denying such claims.

        thestar.com.my

The woman was speaking at a press conference called by Wanita MCA chief Datuk Heng Seai Kie and MCA Public Service and Complaints Department chairman Datuk Seri Michael Chong at Wisma MCA yesterday.

        thesundaily.my

Voicing her support, Wanita MCA chief Datuk Heng Seai Kie said:

“This is a gross injustice. We not only need to bring her rapist to justice but also charge the employer for failing to provide a safe environment for their employee.”

        thestar.com.my

Heng urged the police and the Attorney-General to reopen the case and be more considerate towards the plight of those who were unable to fend for themselves. She said that Wanita MCA have arranged for the woman to be given shelter at Pusat Jagaan Sinar Puteri for unwed mothers having a child born out of wedlock.

        thesundaily.my

“We will aid her through the pregnancy and upon childbirth, she can choose to either keep or give the baby up for adoption,” she said. Chong added that he would also look into the possibility of helping the woman sue her employer.

A Group Of Thieves Stole This Woman's iPhone At KLCC Then Scammed Her Afterwards

There has been a great number of shoppers in major shopping malls in Malaysia who have become victims of theft. But here's the scary thing: victims are losing more than just their personal belongings now.

Recently, a SAYS reader has reached out to us to share her experience at Suria KLCC shopping center in KL in order to warn others about an ongoing syndicate

Writing to SAYS, Fizliyana Hilda Fahrurrazi told us about her harrowing experience when she lost her iPhone 6 smartphone to a syndicate while she was shopping at the Bath & Body Works outlet at the mall on 3 December at approximately 4.45pm. While pickpocket cases in shopping malls may not be unusual, Fizliyana's account has revealed some rather elaborate details of how victims are not just losing their personal belongings such as their smartphones but they're also scammed into giving up their personal information to the unscrupulous criminals. "It's not just a stolen phone case, few days after, victim are trapped in a syndicate where they surrendered their personal information to the thieves," she said.

In a blogpost, Fizliyana detailed how the incident unfolded as well as revealed the modus operandi of the culprits

A man was obstructing Fizliyana's way.

"I noticed that there was a guy who was walking very closely to me and he kept looking at me. When I entered the store, he did not follow suit. I was astonished and had a bad feeling. That was when I checked through my handbag and my phone was gone!" she wrote.  Following the incident, she managed to obtain a CCTV recording from the mall operator. Based on the footage, she claims that the theft was most likely carried out by three individuals who only took a few seconds to steal her phone.

The three suspects included the man who was carrying a sling bag, as well as a couple who were standing behind her

Fizliyana was surrounded by the three suspects.

"Just as I entered the store, the man who was obstructing my way earlier just stayed put. I stopped to have a look at the man since he was walking so closely to me a few seconds ago but suddenly he decided not to enter the store. " She thinks that it should be at this time that the theft took place when all four of them were standing at the same spot, just before she entered the store.

Fizliyana and the three suspects were standing at the same spot just before she entered the store.

It was noted that the guy who was blocking her way earlier had the audacity to stand at the front of the store as the couple left. Fizliyana opined that the guy who was in front of her acted as a distraction while the couple stole her phone. The guy then stayed on to check if the coast was clear while the couple left.

That was only the beginning of the sequence of events that saw Fizliyana surrender her personal account information to the thieves

Image via fhildagreat

Fizliyana was quick to respond to the situation. After she realised that her phone was stolen, she quickly called up her phone number but to no avail. It went straight to the voice mailbox.  She immediately used the 'Find My iPhone' application to locate her missing phone and activated the 'Lost Mode' to locate her device as well as to lock the phone so that no one else can access her personal information on the phone. She waited for three long days, in hopes that the phone will be switched on so that the location of the phone can be detected.

Three days later, she received an SMS that says that her phone was found. She was excited but totally neglected to check the authenticity of the message.

Image via fhildagreat

Unfortunately, the scammers had used this tactic to trick her into giving her personal account information

Without thinking twice, she followed the link that was sent to her from the SMS and entered her Apple ID and password without realising that she was actually directed to a phishing site.It is believed that the message was sent by the thieves and she had fallen for the scam.Later, she realised that there were some obvious telltale signs which she had not noticed earlier due to her eagerness in retrieving her stolen phone. She pointed out that the phone number which sent her the SMS originated from Indonesia, and that the url of the website was quite suspicious.

The thieves managed to steal her Apple ID and password through this method and successfully disabled the 'Lost Mode' tracking system

Using the password that was stolen from the phishing site, the thieves were able to unlock the phone and disable it from the 'Lost Mode', effectively dodging the tracking system and the phone was erased from the 'Find My Phone' feature. Fearing that more personal information would be lost to the criminals, Fizliyana called up Apple Support Malaysia to seek for assistance.She was told to change her password immediately. She breathed a sigh of relief when she was told that the Apple team did not detect any suspicious activities with her account other than the recent change of password which was done by her.

The next day, Fizliyana received another message from the same number

Image via fhildagreat

"After I changed my Apple ID's password, I received another message. This time I was smarter, I just ignored the message," she said, adding that the thieves may have sent the second message in order to obtain her new password. Fizliyana learned that another Malaysian also fell for the same syndicate on that very same day when she did. It was the same modus operandi and the same sequence of events took place, from the theft to the message scam. The only difference was that theft took place at Pavilion Shopping Centre in Kuala Lumpur.

Fizliyana also found out that many shoppers had the same encounter and theft experience at Suria KLCC

After a desktop research, she found out that Zara and Topshop are also "hotspots" for the thieves. The sales person and promoter also told h er that this is pretty normal and happens almost every week. "It doesn't just happen to me but many actually became their victim!" Fizliyana has lodged a police report over the matter as well as informed the Suria KLCC management to ask what are the steps taken to prevent or stop these incidents from happening at their malls, but she has yet to receive any feedback. "As a Malaysian and individual, I am concerned about the safety and security especially women with young kids (who tend to be their main target)," she said.
