Surgeon Sexually Assaults Single Mum. Now She Alleges PDRM Is Harassing Her Because Of It

A disturbing account of a single mother who alleges sexual assault at the hands of a surgeon has surfaced after she lodged a report at a police station in Penang earlier this month, according to a report

The single mother, who works at a multinational company in George Town, lodged the complaint at the Sungai Nibong police station on 5 November alleging that her life had been "turned into a nightmare", reported Audrey Dermawan of New Straits Times on Friday, 20 November.According to the woman, a surgeon forced her to perform oral sex on him on 26 July this year.He subsequently tried to contact her several times after that, but she ignored him, an action that allegedly infuriated the surgeon and he lodged a false report that she had threatened him.It's not reported if the woman had lodged a report against the surgeon after the sexual assault.On 10 October, when the victim turned up with her two children at the Northeast district police station, the investigating officer (IO), who is a female sergeant, did not give her any chance to explain herself."The female officer just seized my handphone without any explanation. I was kept locked up for two days," the woman claimed in her report detailing what had happened to her.

The victim claims that she was detained and locked up for two days following a false report lodged against her by the surgeon. While she was in detention, her two children were left to fend for themselves.

According to the woman, her ordeal didn't end there."After I was released, I received threats through phone calls from someone claiming to be a police officer," the New Straits Times' report stated the single mother as claiming.

			I also received calls from another person who told me I should meet with the surgeon to resolve the matter.

She claimes that despite having submitted call details, the female sergeant told her that whatever happened should be a lesson for her

She said instead of acting on her report, the IO instead lectured her about it being a lesson."The IO even chided me that she could do whatever she wanted with me and no one would do anything about it. My identity card was also not returned to me after I was released," she alleged.

She said that she now fears for her family and also her safety

The woman, who works as an administrative officer at the multinational company, said she is now under trauma besides suffering from mental and psychological stress.According to the New Straits Times' report yesterday, Northeast district police chief ACP Soffian Santong said that an investigation into the case is ongoing and that they will also "investigate the woman's claims that the police are being used to threaten and silence her".

Girl Who Tries To Help Her Dad Gets Condemned For Posting In English Instead

From the start, Khairunhanisah's intention was to help her dad who's a cancer patient to retrieve back stolen medical documents from a recent car break-in

She did something very common these days - to use the influence and mass reach of social media for help. However, her good intentions were overlooked and criticised by some netizens for using English to communicate.

The comments were first spotted on popular Malay site OH!BULAN. We checked and realised the comments are now hidden or have been deleted.

Some lamented that world leaders use their mother tongue, like the Prime Minister of Japan

... while this netizen recommended her to take up BM class

Others were offended that a Malay didn't speak BM but chose a 'white man's language'

We're glad she reached out to get help on Facebook, whatever language she chose to communicate in. Share this to help Khairunhanisah spread the word!

Parents Slammed For Hogging Children's Seats In Canteen During School Recess

This new year, tens of thousands of young children started school for the first time

Image via Bernama via Malay Mail Online

It will be a new experience for many of these students, so naturally there was a sense of excitement and nervousness among the students and parents alike. It's not unusual to see parents coming to school to accompany their children as they spend the first week getting to know new friends and settling into the school system.

However, some kids may have gotten an unexpected start to their new chapter in school as they found themselves without a seat during recess as adults occupied them

Image via Mohd Fadli Salleh/Facebook

While many students get their first taste of recess time with their peers, it appears that in some schools, many adults, presumably parents, had taken up most of the seats in the school canteen. Other students had to eat standing or worst, they ended up not eating at all during recess. Facebook user Mohd Fadli Salleh took to social media to post a photo shared by a friend of parents hogging seats in a canteen during recess.Mohd Fadli, who is a teacher, reprimanded parents for being uncaring towards other students who are less fortunate, especially those who do not have their families with them on the first day of school. "Don't take away students' rights. The chair in the canteen is their right. A place for students to sit and eat and not for parents to serve their own children, leaving other students without a place to go."

He recounted an incident that happened seven years ago when he was working as a Standard 1 school teacher where a young boy did not get to eat during recess

Image via Mohd Fadli Salleh/Facebook

The young boy was placed under the care of his aunt because his father passed away while his mother was hospitalised. According to Mohd Fadli, the boy was alone on the first day of school and he was standing silently beside a pillar as he watched the adults who sat in his place feeding their children."Recess time was up. The student appeared to be hungry, but he did not get to eat. It was only when he put down his plate that was still full of food that I realise what was going on."Mohd Fadli said he accompanied the student to eat while the boy hurriedly finish up his food, afraid that he would get scolded by his teacher as his peers have all returned to the classroom."You display a wonderful picture of feeding your beloved child in the canteen when in fact your happiness robbed other children of their rights," he wrote in his Facebook post, which has received more than 13,000 shares at the time of writing.

Since that incident, Mohd Fadli said he has made it a point to ensure that all students in school have a place to sit and eat during recess

Image via Mohd Fadli Salleh/Facebook

He was happy that parents in his school cooperated by standing around nearby to watch over their children, after he emphasised that adults should not occupy any seats at the canteen unless there are extra empty seats.Mohd Fadli told mStar Online that he understood that some parents may want to spend recess time with their children at the canteen as their children are still new to the school system. However, he stressed that priority must be given to students to have a seat so that they have a chance to eat comfortably during recess, urging parents to be more sensitive and considerate.He also pointed out that the general rule at schools is that parents are not allowed to sit on the chairs in the canteen during recess unless there is a surplus of seats, adding that this rule is usually communicated to parents during orientation day."To parents, imagine if your own child did not get to eat. Your child comes back from school and complained of hunger because the seats in the canteen were full because other parents were sitting together with their children."Surely you will be angry and sad? If that is what you feel, what about other students who had to stay hungry? So, when it's crowded, do not sit down, but just accompany your child from the side of the table," he was quoted as saying.

Do you think parents and visitors should be prohibited from the canteen area during recess? Let us know your thoughts in the comment section below.

Speaking of seat-hogging, there was a huge discussion on social media on whether students who occupy seats to study at eateries should be asked to leave the premises:

[TRENDING] 40 Japanese Show The World That They Don't Need A Superhero To Do This

THIS TRENDING PIC: Heroic Japanese passengers during rush hour at the Minami Urawa Station near Tokyo

Dozens of Japanese train passengers pushed a 32-ton train carriage away from the platform to free a woman who had fallen into the 20-centimeter (eight-inch) gap between the train and platform during the busy morning rush hour Monday.

The woman in her 30s fell between the train and platform

The woman had fallen into the 20cm gap between the train and platform during the busy morning rush hour yesterday.

        news.com.au

All it took was an announcement to prompt 40 passengers to help train officials push the 32,000 kg train carriage

A public announcement that a passenger was trapped prompted about 40 people to join train officials to push the carriage, whose suspension system allows it to lean to either side, according to the Yomiuri newspaper, Japan's largest daily.

        cbsnews.com

Japanese efficiency: the train was delayed for only eight minutes before all-systems-go again

The unnamed woman in her 30s was then pulled out uninjured to applause from onlookers at JR Minami-Urawa station, just north of Tokyo. After just an eight-minute delay, the train went on its way.

        huffingtonpost.com

The station is in the JR Keihin Tohoku Line, the second most crowded train line in Tokyo

The station is part of the JR Keihin Tohoku Line, the second most crowded train line in Tokyo. Info from http://lostinjapan.groth.hm

Minami-Urawa Station is served by the Keihin-Tōhoku Line linking Saitama Prefecture with central Tokyo and Kanagawa Prefecture, and the orbital Musashino Line. Many Keihin-Tōhoku services originate and terminate at this station.

What Japanese train stations are like during rush hour

Tokyo’s transit system is run by a hodge-podge of government agencies and private companies that includes JR, JR East, Tokyo Metro Authority and others.

With 882 stations on 14 lines, Tokyo’s amazing subway system is one of the largest — and busiest — in all the world.

Trains & subways (hereafter referred to simply as ‘trains’) in Japan are crowded, I mean really really crowded. This has to do with the fact that most people commute to work/school by train, and not by car. 2.5 million passengers travel on the JR lines in the Tokyo area every day!

Meet The Sarawakian Who Keeps Our Rich Heritage Alive By Working With Rural Communities

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

Meet Jacqueline Fong, an entrepreneur with an amicable goal to improve the livelihood of Sarawakian rural communities

Image via Jacqueline Fong/Provided to SAYS

Jacqueline Fong is a 46-year-old Sarawakian who co-founded Tanoti Crafts in 2012 after working in the banking industry for 18 years.Tanoti Crafts functions as a platform for craft artisans from rural Sarawakian villages to keep the tradition alive using skills and techniques learnt from their ancestors.Since its creation, Fong has worked with over 500 craft artisans from 25 villages across Sarawak, who weave, make handicrafts, and produce indigenous food, as an effort towards preserving heritage, promoting women empowerment, and advancing the rural community.

Image via @tanoticrafts (Instagram)

"I co-founded Tanoti Sdn Bhd in 2012 to assume an existing workshop of songket weavers which was about to close down," Fong shared with SAYS. From then, the organisation grew from working with just 11 artisans to over 500 artisans across Sarawak.Through Tanoti Crafts, she also works with food producers and sewists to provide income and elevate the livelihoods of the rural community in Sarawak.

Fong provides a platform for Sarawakian artisans who specialise in weaving crafts and producing indigenous food

Some of the woven crafts they produce include bamboo table runners and rattan storage baskets, all handwoven by local artisans using traditional methods that has been passed down through generations.Apart from that, Fong works with Sarawakian food producers in order to commercialise heritage foods via Tanoti Foods. Some of the traditional dishes produced are tuak, engkabang butter, gula apong, and the famous kek lapis that's dearly loved by all Malaysians. Through the production of these indigenous food items, Fong earned Kuching the honour of being the first city in Malaysia to be listed as a City of Gastronomy in the UNESCO Creative Cities network in 2021.

One of her initiatives was the development of a rattan craft program for rural communities to generate a sustainable income by utilising the resources of the Sarawakian jungle

Image via Tanoti Crafts

Image via @tanoticrafts (Instagram)

She even elevated the traditional songket fashion handwoven by Sarawakian sewists at Tenun Fashion Week 2021

Tanoti House, under Tanoti Crafts, combined traditional and contemporary textiles through the Malay songket using the weft technique at the fashion show. The models donned part of Tanoti House's collection that featured a Malay songket woven with Shetland wool, an unconventional weaving fabric.

Image via @tanoticrafts (Instagram)

When the pandemic hit, Fong generated a network of more than 100 sewists to produce masks and personal protective equipment (PPE)

During the Movement Control Order (MCO), Fong established a network of over 100 sewists who produced personal protective equipment (PPE) and fabric masks as part of Tanoti's COVID-19 response initiative."Many of our sewists generated good income during this period, when other people found it difficult to survive. Two of our sewists, Job and his wife Jessica, managed to build a farmhouse after eight months with payments received from our organisation. They even started a rabbit farm," Fong shared.

Image via @tanoticrafts (Instagram)

When the artisan community of Long Balau suffered a fire which burnt down their longhouse, Fong instituted an urgent donation drive

Image via @tanoticrafts (Instagram)

It was a proactive effort towards rebuilding their homes after the fire incident in November 2020. Through Tanoti Crafts, Fong managed to bring in building materials and building tools by early December 2020.By March 2021, the residents of the Long Balau longhouse were able to move into a permanent structure with the resources donated, even before government aid was disbursed.

Image via @tanoticrafts (Instagram)

Fong hopes that, via Tanoti Crafts, rural Sarawakian communities will be able to generate a sustainable income using the skills and techniques inherited from their ancestors

Image via @tanoticrafts (Instagram)

			In this way, we are able to preserve cultural identity as well as build an industry around heritage traditions.
        Jacqueline Fong

Image via @tanoticrafts (Instagram)

Her efforts to alleviate poverty among rural Sarawakian communities have not gone unnoticed, as she has earned many recognitions since establishing Tanoti Crafts

Fong was awarded the World Craft Council Award of Excellence for Handicraft in 2014 and 2016. She also earned the MaGIC Amplify Award in 2015 and the British Council-Arthur Guinness Entrepreneur for Good People’s Choice Award in 2014.Currently, Fong is one of the embellished speakers of The Hasanah Forum, and uses her platform as a philanthropist to raise awareness on poverty alleviation for rural Sarawkian communities.

'90s fashion trends are making a comeback, y'all!

Image via GIPHY

From denim overalls to baggy jeans, these statement pieces have found their way back to our hearts and wardrobes, hehe. Remembered for its comfort and casual chic look, you've probably spotted more and more of your peers rocking that '90s look, as it's coming back into style. Sounds pretty fly, if you ask us. :P

With the revival of vintage fashion, American clothing company Levi's has taken the opportunity to release their 501 '90s collection, just a year shy from their 150th anniversary

Image via Levi's (Provided to SAYS)

Known for their iconic denim blue jeans, the brand has made it a point to constantly update the classic 501 jeans with a new, slightly re-interpreted fit of the original on a yearly basis. With the 501: The Number That Changed Everything campaign, the latest iteration of the 501 jeans has a more relaxed fit through the seat and leg, giving it that overall '90s look and feel.

They've even partnered with seven influencers from different backgrounds, whose inspiring stories perfectly encapsulate the spirit of the original 501!

Image via Levi's (Provided to SAYS)

Here are the visionaries featured in this campaign:- Kid Cudi: hip-hop innovator, actor, and producer- Tremaine Emory: artist, designer, and cultural arbiter- Staz Lindes: model, musician, and member of the punk band The Paranoyds- Mike D: sonic innovator and founding member of Beastie Boys, the legendary American hip-hop group- Nathan Westling: model and fashion icon- Gia Seo: model, creative director, and style innovator- Gabriella Karefa-Johnson: stylist, sartorial taste-maker, and first Black woman to style a Vogue magazine cover

Each of these individuals proudly showed off the versatile style of the original 501 and the 501 '90s in their own unique way

Levi Strauss & Co's Chief Marketing Officer, Karen Riley-Grant, said the iconic original 501 serves as the perfect blank canvas for individuals to flaunt their style and express themselves."For this campaign, we proudly teamed up with seven trailblazers who are famous for pushing boundaries and living authentic lives fueled by creativity and originality. They embody the aspirational spirit that the Levi's 501 is famous for," she said.

No matter what your style is, Levi's 501s are designed to transcend trends, and signify effortless cool across generations

Image via Levi's (Provided to SAYS)

Whether worn painted and customised, '80s-style faded and slim, ripped-up and baggy a la '90s grunge, or 'borrowed' dad-style, it's all up to you on how you'd like to portray your signature style with Levi's jeans. Comfortable yet stylish, there's no doubt that denim invokes a sense of nostalgia. And we all definitely have that one pair of worn-in jeans we super love and refuse to get rid of, hehe. That's exactly the vibe that the 501 '90s jeans are meant to capture.With its overall vintage feel, while appearing fresh and trendy at the same time, the jeans were inspired by the way people were wearing Levi's 501s in the late '90s. This new take on the jeans incorporates a more relaxed design, with a midrise and just the right amount of bagginess in the leg area, easily giving you that effortlessly cool look.

The Reason Why So Many PokéStops Are Churches, Mosques And Temples

We've been playing Pokémon GO religiously ever since it was released on Saturday and we can't help but notice one thing...
Most PokéStops are either temples, shrines, mosques or churches!

Image via Xiao Ling / Kuching Boy's Brigade

The placements of the PokéStops seems pretty random too. One location, like the KLCC Park, can be filled with PokéStops while some tamans could be a desolate wasteland with nothing at all. Why is that so?

You see, the design and developing of Pokémon GO actually dates back to Google. John Hanke, the CEO and founder of Niantic, is a Google veteran!

CEO of Niantic, John Hanke.

Before starting a game that would garner more daily users than Twitter and launch an international craze, Hanke built a long track record as an innovator at Google. It all started when Google became interested in one of his start-ups, a geo-location data company called Keyhole. The startup was acquired in 2004 and it helped shaped what Google Maps is today.

Hanke proceeded to join Google in the same year to lead Google Maps and Google Earth. But he remained an entrepreneur at heart.

Image via All Tech Buzz

He then launched Niantic inside Google to focus on next-gen games and spun it out as a separate company last year.  The company's first augmented reality game was sci-fi based Ingress, which - like Pokémon GO - takes advantage of the cameras and GPS on every smartphone.

Much like Pokémon GO, Ingress is a game of geolocation. Players must travel to specific locations to capture portals, which link with other captured sites to form zones

A screenshot of Ingress.
Image via Pocket Gamer

During the beta stages of the game, Hanke and his team choose first portals based on sites with historical or cultural significance, such as The Washington Monument, Big Ben, The Eiffel Tower and places of interests. Other locations were taken from geotagged locations from Google. Having a background in Google certainly helps!

Image via Remeshed

According to Mashable, Niantic then asked Ingress players from all over the world to submit places they thought were worthy of being portals. A total of 15 million submissions came through but only 5 million locations were chosen.

With such a robust data bank, it would make perfect sense for the company to use it as a starting point for Pokémon GO

Image via John / SAYS

Niantic has turned the more popular locations into Gyms. The less popular (but still active and approved) locations have become PokéStops. "The PokéStops are submitted by users, so obviously they're based on places people go," Hanke said. "We had essentially two and a half years of people going to all the places where they thought they should be able to play Ingress, so it's some pretty remote places."

Niantic geographic markers went the extra mile by integrating Pokémon habitat in the game

Image via Tech Crunch

"We assign values based on whether there is a water body in an area — so a stream, a river, a pond — whether areas are designated as zoos or parks, or other kinds of mapping designations," Hanke told Mashable.

So, next time you're wondering why Pokémon GO seems to be telling you to go to a church, or your taman's mosque, odds are that it's actually curated from Google Maps or an Ingress player who suggested it!

Image via Giphy

We get that everyone striving to be the very best, but please be safe and respectful especially in places of worship!

Don't stop catching all the Rattatas and Pidgeys in your way! They might come in really handy...

                Why Are There So Many Rattata And Pidgey? WHAT DO YOU DO WITH THEM?

They're EVERYWHERE.

State secretary Datuk Bakar Din said Bashah would be sworn in tomorrow morning at Istana Anak Bukit, Alor Setar.The appointment ends more than two weeks of the state's leadership crisis following a revolt against Mukhriz.Bashah, the Kedah Umno liaison deputy chairman, led the charge to remove Mukhriz on January 20.He had accused Mukhriz of failing to unite the party leadership and machinery, and lacking strategy for Kedah Umno to face the 14th general election.

Mukhriz Mahathir announced his resignation earlier today, citing loss of support from state leaders as the major reason

Umno is at its weakest as long as PM @NajibRazak is at the helm says ousted MB @MukhrizMahathir @ChannelNewsAsia pic.twitter.com/DaT5qthH76— Melissa Goh (@melgoh) February 3, 2016

Datuk Seri Mukhriz Mahathir has announced his resignation as the Kedah Menteri Besar on Wednesday (3 February) at a packed press conference held at his office in Wisma Darul Aman.His resignation will take effect immediately. About two weeks ago, 14 of 15 UMNO divisional leaders in Kedah sparked a revolt against Datuk Seri Mukhriz Mahathir, saying that his weak leadership had stalled the state's economy."I'm sorry to say, that as long as Najib is still there, UMNO is still at its weakest point right now,"Mukhriz added.

21 JAN: Sacking Mukhriz will cause "bigger split in UMNO", says Muhiyiddin

This statement was released at a press conference today comprising of Kedah UMNO leaders and majority of state and federal lawmakers.

“I fear that if the demands for Muhkriz to step down is entertained by the party leadership, Umno will lose the respect of the people and face even tougher challenges in the coming days." he says.

        themalaymailonline.com

Muhyiddin also pointed out that Mukhriz played the most important role in helping Barisan Nasional in securing Kedah from PAS and deserved to retain his MB post as promised by the prime minister.Keeping Mukhriz in UMNO will help restore confidence of the people in the party as he is seen to be "clean, liked by the people and is not embroiled in any claims of moral misconduct. A breach of trust or corruption can affect the people's trust towards the party and the state government under his leadership,” stated Muhyiddin.

Meanwhile, challenged Kedah MB Mukhriz Mahathir said that he will stay on as long as the rakyat supports him when he addressed the 1,000-strong crowd outside Bangunan Tunku Alor Setar last night, 20 January

"Hidup Mukhriz" was chanted by his supporters outside the Kedah UMNO headquarters, rallying for him to stay as menteri besar.He was greeted by his supporters as he entered the building at 9.50pm for the Jerlun Umno Division meeting on January 20th after Kedah UMNO leaders declared he was no longer fit for the job earlier that day.

There were also loud chantings of "Hancur Najib" heard among the mob of Mukhriz devotees during the rally

The current PM was seen as the reason for Mukhriz's removal who called out on his actions during the 1MDB scandal.When Mukhriz left the building at 11.30pm upon the dissolvement of the meeting, his supporters pushed to get closer to their hero. Before he disappeared into his car, he left with a statement that lifted their spirits:

"I thank all of you because some said earlier that I did not have any support. Please remain calm and patient. Everything that happens happens for a reason" he said."This is a normal challenge. We pray for good things to come and for Kedah to remain peaceful and prosperous"

20 JAN: Kedah UMNO leaders have started a rebellion against their menteri besar, Muhkriz Mahathir, saying that they have "lost confidence" in his leadership

Kedah Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Mukhriz Mahathir

A concerted move to oust Mukhriz Mahathir had finally been set in motion, less than a year after the Kedah menteri besar succeeded in staving off a rebellion.According to Berita Harian, Kedah UMNO chief Ahmad Bashah Md Hanipah also called for Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak to intervene and replace Mukhriz as menteri besar."The entire state UMNO leadership and elected representatives gathered here today hereby announce that we have lost confidence in the leadership of Mukhriz Mahathir as Kedah UMNO liaison chief and as Kedah menteri besar," read Ahmad Bashah from a prepared statement.

        malaysiakini.com

The outspoken Kedah UMNO deputy chief Ahmad Bashah Md Hanipah, has given four reasons on why Mukhriz should no longer be the menteri besar of Kedah, namely:

UMNO leaders at the press conference that was held this afternoon, on appealing for a new leader
Image via Berita Harian

			1. Mukhriz's failure to unite the UMNO party at all levels in the state. 2. The lack of strategic planning in preparation for the much awaited 14th General Election. 3. Failure to move and lead the party's machinery after becoming the menteri besar of the state. 4. Poor management of state administration. Mukhriz, son of former Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad, has been the menteri besar of Kedah since his victory in the 13th general elections back in 2013.

In the "no-confidence" press conference that was held earlier today, a large group of prominent UMNO MPs and leaders expressed their dissatisfaction over Mukhriz's ruling, appealing for a change in leadership for the state of Kedah

Image via The Malaysian Insider

Among the lawmakers present at the press conference were Kubang Pasu MP Datuk Mohd Johari Bahrom, Padang Terap MP Ghazali Ibrahim, Jerai MP Datuk Seri Jamil Khir Baharom and Baling MP Datuk Seri Abdul Azeez Abdul Rahim. Mukhriz's support for Najib’s leadership has come under scrutiny after his father Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad publicly campaign to remove the prime minister.At a dinner organised by Kedah Umno during the party general assembly in December last year, Mukhriz had taken a swipe at Najib’s stewardship of the party and country when he called on Umno grassroots members to fight for leadership reform. He told them not to fear reprisal from the top, or they risked seeing their party suffer defeat in the next general election.

        themalaysianinsider.com

This strong opposition against the long standing UMNO member comes after his calls for change and  leadership reform at a party dinner late last year

“We are facing a critical challenge and we must change if we want to remain (relevant) in the next general election. “If we are alone, it is like a dot in a vast ocean. But if we work together, all of us united, we can continue that pressure,” Mukhriz was quoted as saying in news reports.He also appeared to have aligned himself with sacked deputy prime minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin and former rural development minister Datuk Seri Shafie Apdal.

        themalaysianinsider.com

Meanwhile, Mukhriz's father, former premier Mahathir Mohamad has been championing against PM Najib Razak's regime, asking for his resignation over the financial scandals that have transpired over the past few years:

The Election Commission's New Procedure To Avoid Fraud In GE14 Is Called 'Finger Massage'

In a Bernama report published on Wednesday, The Election Commission of Malaysia (EC) is introducing a procedure called "finger massage" to prevent fraud during the 14th general election

Image via Choo Choy May/The Malay Mail Online

The "finger massage" procedure will enable the polling station clerks to examine voters' fingers more carefully to ensure they did not wear gloves or had ink stains on them, Bernama reported

EC General Election Academy Registrar Nik Aminudin Nik Shahar Shah, whom Bernama quoted in its report, said that the "clerk on duty will wear gloves to check the fingers of the voters before they are allowed to dip their finger in the indelible ink bottle.""We are taking this measure as there are now many artificial finger gloves. At the same time, it is to further improve the procedures in the voting process to prevent any fraud," Bernama quoted him as saying at the RTM Auditorium in Kuantan.

Additionally, while media personnel were briefed on the electoral system in the country, the EC General Election Academy also simulated the complete polling and ballot counting process which will be conducted at polling centres throughout Malaysia

707,304 Malaysians Are Barred From Travelling. Check To Make Sure You’re Not One Of Them!

A report by NST yesterday, 7 November, revealed that 707,304 Malaysians are barred from leaving the country. That is 250,000 people more than last year's barred persons list.

Image via Bernama via Malay Mail Online

In a report by New Straits Times, Immigration director-general Datuk Seri Mustafar Ali said that the the names of the people that are barred from leaving the country are placed on a Suspected List (SL) which is based on applications by government agencies. Agencies like the Malaysia Insolvency Department, the National Higher Education Fund Corporation (PTPTN) and the Inland Revenue Board (IRB) have reached out to the immigration department and asked for these individuals to be barred from leaving Malaysia.

Image via NST

It was also revealed that nearly half of people, that are barred this year are Malaysians with outstanding PTPTN loans.
The exact number is 261,833 and Mustafar said that it is a four-fold increase from last year.

The rest are of list is made up of 212,927 and 128,187 people that have outstanding payments to the Malaysia Insolvency Department and IRB, respectively."Our eGate system will go through the database and those whose names are in the SL will be denied boarding. The eGate system will not provide details on why they cannot leave the country," said Mustafar, as quoted by NST.

"The eGate system will not provide details on why they cannot leave the country. Instead, they will be directed to the manned counters and given the contact numbers of related agencies to resolve their problem," explained Mustafar.

The Immigration Department head also said that the blacklisted individuals will have to miss their flights if they cannot resolve the outstanding payment in time. As a solution, the Immigration Department has suggested that agencies like PTPTN and IRN set up helpdesks at the airport to provide faster assistance for travellers that are barred. Mustafar also mentioned that his department is considering the idea of installing "screening" devices that could help people check their status before going through the eGates to expedite the check-in process.

Wondering how to check your status? Here's how you can do it:

It's a simple two-step procedure - just log onto the Immigration Department's website and key in your IC number and it should tell you whether or not you're barred from leaving Malaysia.


Ini 5 Cara Mudah Untuk Dapatkan Tidur Yang Lebih Berkualiti Supaya Badan Lebih Cergas

Tidur yang berkualiti memang penting untuk pastikan badan sentiasa cergas

Image via mediskus.com

Tapi kadang-kadang, tidur yang cukup sampai 8 jam pun belum tentu menjamin kecergasan badan. Yang lebih penting sebenarnya ialah kualiti tidur, bukan durasi tidur.Jadi, pernah tertanya-tanya tak macam mana nak dapatkan tidur yang berkualiti? Apa caranya?

Selepas melakukan sedikit research, ini 5 cara untuk dapat waktu tidur yang berkualiti. Jom try sama-sama:

1. Ciptakan ritual tidur

Image via huffingtonpost.com

Mungkin korang boleh dengar muzik yang ringan, baca buku ataupun manjakan diri dengan berendam di tab mandi berisi air hangat-hangat suam gitu. Nak best lagi, korang boleh pasangkan lilin-lilin wangi sekitar tab mandi. Confirm layan!Lakukan aktiviti ini sekitar 15-30 minit sebelum waktu tidur.

2. Jangan jadikan bilik tidur sebagai ‘bilik serbaguna’

Image via blinkblink.my

Maksudnya di sini, bilik tidur perlu dikhususkan untuk korang berehat dan tidur. Jangan letak televisyen, komputer, meja kerja, dan peralatan elektronik terutamanya dalam kamar korang.Rasionalnya, peralatan itu semua bakal memberi signal kepada otak anda untuk ‘tidak tidur’.

3. Katakan tidak pada kafein & alkohol!

Image via medicalnewstoday.com

Kopi, teh, coklat dan minuman soda dapat menstimulasi tubuh untuk tetap terjaga. Sebaiknya jangan ambil kafein sekitar 4 sehingga 6 jam sebelum waktu tidur anda. Begitu juga dengan nikotin dan alkohol.

4. Lakukan aktiviti olahraga

Image via sinarharian.com.my

Tubuh badan yang selalu aktif secara fizikal pada waktu siang sangat membantu untuk memastikan korang mendapat tidur yang nyenyak di malam hari. Tapi, jangan pula korang berolahraga masa dah nak tidur sebab ia bakal memberi signal yang salah kepada otak kerana tubuh korang masih belum berada dalam keadaan relax!

5. Kalau susah untuk lelap, jangan hanya berbaring di atas katil!

Image via tumblr.com

Kadang-kadang dah 20 minit baring, mata masih susah nak tidur. Puas bergolek atas katil pun masih tak dapat feel nak berehat. Solusinya, korang bangun dari katil dan pergi ke tempat lain yang tenang untuk duduk atau berbaring sampailah rasa mata korang dah ready untuk lelap.Tapi, jangan pula main telefon ya!

Haaa itulah dia senarainya. Nanti bolehlah korang cuba mulai malam ini dan lihat hasilnya sendiri ya.

Bayangkan kalau hari-hari bangun tidur badan terus rasa cergas, bertenaga, dan tak mengantuk. Mesti seronok, kan? Barulah bersemangat nak pergi kerja! ;)
