OMG, Is Motorola Bringing Back The RAZR Flip Phone?!

Remember back in the day when your younger self would show off your super canggih Motorola RAZR phone to all of your friends?

Image via MTV

Yes, that's Channing Tatum.

Well, be prepared to relive the good ol' days because Motorola just teased that they might be bringing the RAZR flip phone back!

Image via The Hindu

The phone proved to very popular but its days were numbered as smart phones began to dominate the market in the wake of the first Apple iPhone

The RAZR became the world’s bestselling flip phone despite being woefully underpowered compared to today’s mobiles, with a 2.2-inch screen and a 0.3-megapixel camera

Becks with the RAZR
Image via BurtonMail

Motorola's highest entry in the top 20 was for the RAZR V3, which after selling more than 130 million handsets, is also the world's best-selling clamshell phone. It went on sale in 2004.

Motorola, which is currently owned by Lenovo, uploaded a video of the phone in action on YouTube over the weekend

Image via Motorola's YouTube page

The video has gotten over 1 million views at the time of writing!

The 45-second video features some teeny boppers in a high school calling and texting with a RAZR flip phone

Image via Motorola's YouTube page

The description of the video says, 'Flip back to the Razr days of yesteryear and get ready for the future.'

The video, titled “06.09.16”, highlights an event Motorola is due to hold on 9 June. Will the new phone bring back the RAZR brand for a second time? All will be revealed that day.

Image via Motorola's YouTube page

Lenovo Tech World conference will be held on 9 June at The Iconic Masonic in San Francisco, USA. Lenovo is set to unveil a set of new Motorola phone models. In all likelihood, the phone will be upgraded to today's standards of design while keeping the aesthetic of a flip phone.

After all, flip phones are making somewhat of a comeback recently with Adele famously using one in her music video for the song 'Hello'

Malaysians Visiting Europe Must Go Through This New Application Process From 2024

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

A new immigration process called the European Travel Information and Authorisation System (ETIAS) will become a mandatory requirement for Malaysians prior to entering Europe's Schengen Area from 2024

The ETIAS is an online authorisation that only applies to citizens who are from countries, such as Malaysia, that enjoy visa-free access to the European Union (EU) countries.With a valid ETIAS authorisation, each citizen from the visa-free countries can stay in the Schengen Area for a period of up to 90 days and can use the ETIAS authorisation for multiple entries.

It is not a visa

According to the EU's official ETIAS website, while citizens from visa-free countries can still enjoy the privilege to access the EU without an entry visa, ETIAS will become a mandatory requirement as part of an EU intergovernmental legislative initiative created to enforce the security of its Member States.This also affects Singaporeans and citizens of around 60 countries who can enter EU countries for short trips without first applying for a visa. But it does not guarantee entry. When you arrive, a border guard will ask to see your passport and other documents and verify if you meet the entry conditions.

Image via Walauwei.com!

The application can be done online, costing EUR7 (approx RM35.59)

Once an application is submitted, the ETIAS system will verify the information you have provided and automatically process the application to cross-check against various EU information systems  — such as SIS, VIS, Europol, Interpol, Eurodac, and so forth — for security purposes.After having determined if an authorisation to enter the EU can be granted to you, the ETIAS system will then issue or refuse the authorisation.If the system approves your application, you will receive the authorisation directly by email. However, in case of denial, an email with reasons for refusal will be sent.Keep in mind that while the process is simple and should take about 10 minutes, in certain cases, it might be delayed for days, so apply well in advance of your planned journey.Your application process could be extended by up to 14 days if you are requested to provide additional information or documentation, or up to 30 days if you are invited to an interview.Once approved, your ETIAS travel authorisation is valid for three years or until your passport expires, whichever comes first. You can leave and return as many times under the overall limit of your authorised stay.

While applying for ETIAS, you will need to provide your criminal record and details of your trips to conflict zones

Here's the information you will be required to share:- Your personal details like name, sex, date, and place of birth,- Home address, contact information, nationality, and travel document information.Inform authorities of any convictions for serious criminal offences. Examples include terrorism, sexual exploitation of children, trafficking of human beings or drugs, murder, and rape.You must also reveal details, if any, of stays in specific conflict zones and of any prior administrative decisions requiring you to leave a country, all over the last ten years.

Image via Europas

After the authorisation of your ETIAS application is done, there are a couple of things you need to take note of:

- Make sure to carry a printout of your ETIAS authorisation, even though it is linked to your passport. Without the email printout, you might be denied boarding at the airport.- The validity of the ETIAS is strictly related to that of the passport used to complete the application. Meaning if you're travelling in a group or with your family, every member of the group needs to be authorised by ETIAS. You cannot travel merely on the authorisation of a sole member of the group or your family. Additionally, if you had an ETIAS for your passport, then within that three years you renew your passport, you may have to reapply for the ETIAS again.- Do check the status of your ETIAS a few days before your departure date as it can be revoked and annulled if the conditions for issuing it no longer apply.- If you're visiting multiple EU countries, you will have to pass through the first country you have stated in your application. For example, if you're planning to visit Portugal, Spain and France, and you have written in your application that the first country you will visit is France, then you must go through France before visiting Spain and Portugal.

These are the countries for which you would need ETIAS:

Here's Everything You Need To Know About #HaTepuk, The New Viral Trend In Malaysia

Forget about the #ShiggyChallenge, there's a new viral trend taking over social media in Malaysia - the #HaTepuk

The trend is a simple one, it involves someone ranting or complaining about any topic that meets their fancy, and then ending it with a loud exclamation of "HA TEPUK" (a sarcastic comment akin to "come I clap for you"), and occasionally accompanied with a hit or slap of some kind, usually on the head.

Check out a few examples below:

  A post shared by Mear Biaggi (@nk3371) on Jul 20, 2018 at 11:37pm PDT

  A post shared by Nabila Kahar (@nabilakahar) on Jul 18, 2018 at 12:33am PDT

So how did this trend come about?

It all started with Malaysian actress Sharifah Sakinah, and her role in a recent Raya telemovie titled 'Bini Aku Dari ....', the sequel to 'Girlfriend Aku Dari Neraka', a popular Malay drama series.

Image via Beautifulnara

Sharifah reprises her role as Lydia, the lead female character who is now adapting to life as a newlywed and dealing with all the challenges that come with it.Ever since her character used the "HA TEPUK" line in the telemovie, Sharifah has adopted it as a catchphrase, most notably using it on her Insta stories to call out celebrities who do questionable product endorsements.

Image via MyInfotaip

This sparked netizens to pick up the catchphrase, using it all over social media, whether to parody Sharifah's rants or to emphasize their own raging

While some mocked the trend, Sharifah herself was extremely supportive, even going so far as to post a video on Instagram encouraging others to continue making parodies.

  A post shared by Sharifah Sakinah Al-Khaired (@sharifah_sakinah) on Jul 16, 2018 at 3:51am PDT

One of the top posts of the #HATEPUK tag on Instagram is by lifestyle Instagrammer ChenLin Daphne, who used it to hilariously show how obsessed she is with her favourite hand cream

Check it out below:

  A post shared by  (@daph2cl) on Jul 24, 2018 at 8:36pm PDT

It even caught Sharifah's attention, who proceeded to give her a shoutout via Insta stories and even tagged Watsons to call their attention to the video

Previously, Sharifah was featured in an entertaining Watsons video, where she talked about a clingy little problem that followed her everywhere she goes

Struggling To Quit Smoking? Here Are 5 Alternatives Smokers Are Now Using

Everybody knows smoking is dangerous and addictive, yet 5 million Malaysians are still hooked on the habit

Image via Tantan News

With the implementation of high tobacco taxes, an increase in cigarette prices, advertising bans, graphic health warnings, and most recently, a smoking ban in eateries, the government is exerting serious efforts to get smokers to quit.

One of the most common methods recommended by health authorities is the use of Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) products

Image via Verywell Mind

Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) is purely a smoking cessation aid that gives you nicotine in the form of chewing gum, patches, sprays, inhalers, or lozenges. The good thing about them is that they don't include tar and other harmful chemicals found in cigarettes. NRT helps relieve some physical withdrawal symptoms and are widely available nationwide.These products are scientifically tested and research has shown that they can be effective ways to quit smoking. However, addiction is complex so it's important to note that there are other psychological reasons that need to be addressed.

Of course, it would be best to quit altogether, but it's easier said than done as cessation tools may not work for all smokers

There are also those who, despite knowing the health hazards, still decide to continue smoking. What are the alternatives for them? One possible option could be to switch to novel products that are better alternatives to cigarettes and may potentially reduce the harm of smoking.

Image via Giphy

Scientifically, nicotine is addictive but is not the primary cause of smoking-related diseases. Instead, it's the tar and chemicals produced from burning cigarettes. Thus, the moment a smoker stops burning tobacco, the reduction in exposure to dangerous chemicals is substantial.There are now alternative products to cigarettes that produce significantly fewer harmful chemicals than those found in cigarette smoke. However, as these products are still relatively new in the market, more scientific studies should be conducted to validate their safety and to raise awareness among adult smokers.

People are now switching to these 5 less harmful alternatives:

Important note: These suggestions are for adult smokers looking to switch from normal cigarettes.

1. E-cigarettes

Image via American Association for Respiratory Care

E-cigarettes are battery-powered devices that produce water vapour instead of smoke. They are slim, lightweight, and made to mimic the feeling of smoking a tobacco cigarette. The system contains a powerful lithium-ion battery, an atomiser or cartridge that holds the liquid, a coil that absorbs the liquid and creates the smoke-like vapour, and a mouthpiece where the vapour is inhaled.Compared to e-cigarettes, NRT products like gum are lower in harm but are also more expensive and less appealing to consumers. E-cigarettes provide lower harm than regular cigarettes, while giving users their nicotine fix. Do note that while they are considered "lower harm", e-cigarettes still pose health risks to the user and are not 100% harmless.

Image via The Economic Times

That being said, the public health authorities in the UK are big proponents of e-cigarettes. According to a recent study conducted in England and funded by the charity Cancer Reseach UK, people using e-cigarettes to quit smoking are about 95% more likely to report success than those trying to quit without help from any stop-smoking aids. The study adds to growing evidence that the use of e-cigarettes can help smokers to quit.Experts went on to say that the results were robust and important, yielding two key findings about e-cigarettes - they help smokers quit at least as much as stop-smokingmedications, and they are used by many more smokers. "This means they generate many more quitters and do this at no cost to the NHS (National Health Service),” claimed Peter Hajek, Director of the Tobacco Dependence Research Unit at Britain’s Queen Mary University of London.

2. Vaping

Image via The Vape

Vape pens and vape mods are gaining popularity in Malaysia. While e-cigarettes are seen as "introductory products", vape pens and mods are preferred for more advanced users. This is because they have twice the battery power and a noticeably bigger tank, allowing daily users to vape more between refills.These vaping devices heat a flavoured liquid containing nicotine salts to produce "moist" vapour clouds, with smells that correlate to its flavour. Again, although they cause lower harm, they still pose health risks to the user.

3. Tobacco-heating devices

Image via Digmo

Relatively new to the market, tobacco-heating devices such as Philip Morris' IQOS, British American Tobacco's Glo, and Japan Tobacco's Ploom Tech are smoke-free products. Although they look similar to e-cigarettes, IQOS and Glo do not vaporise nicotine-containing liquid. Instead, they vaporise real tobacco. On the other hand, unlike IQOS and Glo, Ploom TECH does not directly heat tobacco rolls. Instead, it generates vapor that goes through a tobacco-packed capsule.While regular cigarettes burn tobacco at high temperatures which generate smoke containing high levels of harmful chemicals, these "heat not burn" devices heat mini tobacco sticks at lower temperatures. By doing so, users are able to get the taste of tobacco without high exposure to carcinogens and other chemicals. This method doesn't completely cut out chemicals but does significantly reduce exposure to them.

Image via contribution from Philip Morris

According to Philip Morris, the company has invested over USD6 billion since 2008 in research and development of their reduced-risk products. Their studies demonstrate that based on the totality of evidence available, switching to IQOS completely, while not risk-free, presents less risk of harm compared to continuing to smoke cigarettes.Philip Morris says it welcomes independent research on their smoke-free products and also encourages global government agencies and bodies alike to validate the available evidence on its heated tobacco system.Interestingly too, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently authorised the sale of Philip Morris’ IQOS in the United States, finding that such authorisation is “appropriate for the protection of public health.” According to news reports, the decision was based on a careful assessment of scientific data that qualifies IQOS for sale following a US 2009 law which empowers the FDA to regulate tobacco products, including through oversight of innovative products.

Image via Digmo

While the FDA’s announcement marks a historic milestone, the regulatory authority has also set out clear commercialisation guidelines, including marketing requirements that allow only for adults to switch from cigarettes, and minimize unintended use by non-smokers and especially youth. Even though more and more companies are introducing innovative technology to reduce the harms caused by smoking, these alternatives are still tobacco products nonetheless and must be restricted to adult smokers.

4. Herbal cigarettes

Image via Broadly

Herbal cigarettes contain no tobacco or nicotine. They are filled with a blend of herbs and flowers such as passion flower, corn silk, rose petals, ginseng, and more. Herbal cigarettes are not addictive and so are often viewed as a stop-smoking aid. However, they do generate tar, carbon monoxide, and other toxic materials as they burn. While they are less harmful than regular cigarettes, they are still required to carry a warning label and are not to be used as a long-term alternative to smoking cigarettes.

5. Smoking cessation programmes

Image via Modern Reflexology

Smoking cessation programmes include therapies such as acupuncture around the ear, hypnotherapy, and even behavioral counselling. This is because smoking addiction is more than just a physical need, it is also a psychological one. A study in 2008 found that 55% of people who had laser acupuncture quit smoking in six months. Meanwhile, reviewers discovered that 20-45% of hypnotherapy patients quit smoking six months to a year later. Other trials have varied in results.

While the best course of action is to quit smoking, for those who are not ready or continue to struggle, these alternatives may potentially reduce harm to your body in the long run

Surprisingly, some tobacco companies have even been encouraging smokers to quit! As Philip Morris puts it "if you don't smoke, don't start; if you smoke, quit; if you don't quit, change."For more information on quitting smoking, seek medical advice from a doctor or health professional.

2 Friends Live Their Dreams By Travelling Across 24 European Countries In 33 Days

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

Two best friends from Selangor had the time of their lives traveling across 24 European countries in just over a month with meticulous planning and discipline

To fulfil their ultimate goal of traveling abroad, they have been saving up for years. Speaking to Wau Post, 27-year-old Hirza Hasniza and Fasya Rafiqa embarked on their journey from Kuala Lumpur to Dubai on 7 October 2022 before making their way to Switzerland, where their big European adventure began.They successfully completed the traveling tour on 8 November 2022, Free Malaysia Today reported.Hirza said they took five months to plan the itinerary for their Europe trip and admitted that it was gruelling, which might not be suitable for those who want to travel at a relaxed pace."This is because we only visited the top three tourist destinations in each country before moving on to the next," Hirza explained.

Hirza also shared that they spent around RM15,000 each throughout their journey on transportation and lodgings

With the careful planning, they did not miss any icons and landmarks such as the London Eye, the Colosseum, and the Louvre.They even went on a tour to the Golden Circle in Iceland, where they managed to catch the breathtaking auroras, also completely known as polar lights."We stayed longer than two days in popular European countries with lots of tourist attractions like France, Italy, and Switzerland, meanwhile we spent just one day in less popular countries like Malta," Hirza said.They also explored some of the region's most beautiful cities, including Paris, London, Belgium, Hamburg, Copenhagen, Stockholm, Tallin, Warsaw, and others.

Hirza and Fasya also visited countries that were close to the Mediterranean, such as Greece.

The one-month trip, however, didn't go smoothly as they wanted, as they faced some unfortunate events while travelling

Hirza said they missed one of their flights and had one of their AirBnB hosts cancel on them at the very last minute. Not just that, according to Free Malaysia Today, Fasya also expressed her frustration when her iPhone was stolen when they were about to board a train in Milan. Even though she successfully tracked down her missing phone, she still ended up buying a new one.However, despite the hardship they went through, the duo said they managed to create memories that would truly last them a lifetime.

Semuanya gara-gara pendedahan yang dibuatnya mengenai kisah perkahwinan keduanya yang berlangsung di Tanah Suci Mekah bersama seorang janda anak lapan. Namun apa yang menarik perhatian ramai apabila dia turut mengakui  seramai 18 orang wanita sudah mengajak dia berkahwin sebelum ini di mana dia menolak dengan baik namun berbeza pula dengan lamaran kali yang ke 19. "Jujur saya katanya sudah 18 orang wanita meminta untuk jadi isteri kedua sepanjang tempoh beberapa tahun perkahwinan saya dengan Fatin (isteri pertama). Namun, semuanya saya tolak dengan mudah. Namun wanita yang ke 19 ini membuatkan saya tiada kekuatan untuk menolak. "MasyaAllah...auranya membuatkan saya terkenang kisah penyatuan cinta antara Nabi Muhammad SAW dan Siti Khadijah," katanya kepada Mstar. Bagaimanapun, dia mengaku telah menceraikan isteri pertamanya, Fatin Nurul Ain Mat Aris menerusi aplikasi Whatsap pada Selasa, 3 Disember 2019. Isterinya itu kini sedang sarat mengandung.

KJ: "Mungkin Penulis Keliru Saya Dengan Chris Hemsworth"

Pada 17 Jun yang lalu, akhbar New Straits Times telah mengeluarkan satu kolum memaparkan biodata calon Presiden UMNO, Khairy Jamaluddin

Dalam kolum tersebut, pada seksyen 'Occupation', NST telah menyatakan pekerjaan Khairy Jamaluddin atau lebih mudah disapa KJ, sebagai seorang ahli politik dan pelakon.

Biodata YB @Khairykj di NST hari ini.Occupation: Politician, ACTOR.Aku tak tau nak respon macam mana. pic.twitter.com/LTKnVsEUH5— Mat Rodi (@MatRodi_MY) June 18, 2018

Ekoran perkara ini, ramai netizen yang mempersoalkan perihal perkara tersebut.

no maybe dia nk ckp public figure but can't differentiate so put laa actor — Queenkhai (@MeAin3) June 19, 2018

he did act. he acted in one indie telemovie about women empowerment as extra.— rin (@saltyanchovy) June 18, 2018

Ada beberapa kali jugaklah dia muncul as cameo dalam telefilem— Monalika (@OMGikaa) June 19, 2018

KJ yang semenangnya aktif dengan media sosial Twitter peribadinya telah membalas persoalan tersebut

Penulis mungkin baru tengok Infinity Wars dan confuse saya dengan @chrishemsworth. Husnuzon. https://t.co/WGf5rttFbo— Khairy Jamaluddin (@Khairykj) June 19, 2018

Secara teknikalnya, KJ sememangnya pernah mempamerkan bakat lakonannya dalam beberapa sketsa selain pernah memainkan watak cameo dalam beberapa telemovie.

Berikut adalah antara beberapa adegan yang telah dilakonkan oleh Ahli Parlimen Rembau itu sewaktu berkempen untuk PRU14

Beliau juga pernah memainkan watak cameo sebagai penjual ayam percik dalam telemovie ini

Bukan itu sahaja, beliau pernah menunjukkan sisi komedinya dalam filem pendek ini

Bukan sahaja bijak berpolitik bahkan calon Presiden UMNO ini sememangnya mempunyai bakat dalam bidang lakonan, maka tidak hairanlah NST turut meletakkan pekerjaan KJ sebagai seorang pelakon.

For this story, SAYS asked Malaysians to share their funniest sex experiences and here are the best six stories we received:

1. "It's always the young and dumb mistakes, am I right?"

"My boyfriend (at the time) and I had pretty strict parents when it came to our relationship, since it was both of our firsts, so we couldn't go to each other's house often. Because of that, it [wasn't] surprising that most of our 'encounters' were at school. "The first time we ever did something sexual was on a very secluded staircase in our school, and both of us [thought] we would never get caught there. "WRONG."Halfway through, we started hearing voices and keys jiggling down the corridor. We didn't notice it early enough and basically jumped off each other right in time to not let people see what was going down, even though it was pretty obvious. "I was terrified of the situation, so I walked a flight down the stairs and pretended to be on a phone call when people saw us, while my poor ex had to stand there getting told off by the security guard to not wait there after school."It's a very embarrassing but also funny first time encounter looking back at it now." — Lily

2. "A one-night stand called out another guy's name during sex. Later, I found out, after connecting on social media, that it was her brother's name. Sweet Home Alabama." — Ariel

3. "We wanted to try anal"

"Lube is needed for it. We were at my friend's house. I had no idea where the lube [was] kept. "So, I told her [that] there was [a] hand sanitiser in my bag, so [we used] it. She got up and brought (the) hand sanitiser. She applied it to her hands as I waited."I asked her, 'What is taking you so long?' She replied, 'It dried up!'"We dropped the idea after that, although after laughing." — Mr Albert

4. "I barfed all over his dick"

"I went out clubbing on a double date. On the way home, I was in the backseat with the dude while my friend and the other dude were in the front."I was giving the dude head, but I was very drunk and I barfed all over his dick." — Calliope

5. "Now I know what my own meow meow tastes like"

"My boyfriend took out the condom to check for leakage after sex, and I realised it was a flavoured one. Not sure why, but I suddenly wondered [what] it tasted like and proceeded to lick it."My boyfriend stared at me in shock...and I now know what my own meow meow tastes like." — Rachel

6. "Experience was 7/10, use proper protection"

"Me and my partner started our relationship after getting to know each other and finishing university together. Unfortunately, COVID-19 came during March in Malaysia, so it was such a turn-off to start our relationship as a long-distance relationship (LDR) through calls and text message."We lived a 20-minute drive away from each other, but still neither of us wanted to risk seeing each other. But, there was this one evening when we planned to meet at a nearby park. We both reached the park and it was raining heavily, so we had to run back to the car."In the car, we both started to get a little bit hot and pinkish. We started making out in the backseat after confirming (we both tested) negative [on] swab tests. "The only thing that could be used in the car were disposable gloves (which were there because of the COVID-19 era) and we used one as a condom, but after five minutes, it broke. So, we decided to go bare and continue our love-making session because we were too horny."Experience was 7/10, use proper protection." — Mazih

[VIDEO] Nepali Sherpa Saves M'sian Climber By Carrying Him Down Mt Everest For 6 Hours

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

"Saving one life is more important than praying at the monastery" — these are the words of Gelje Sherpa, a Mount Everest guide, who quit the summit to save a Malaysian climber from the "death zone"

30-year-old Gelje was guiding a Chinese client to the Everest summit at 29,032ft on the night of 18 May, when he saw the Malaysian climber holding a rope and shivering from extreme cold in the "death zone", also called "the Balcony", a colloquial name for an area of Mount Everest close to the summit."I was going towards the summit with a Chinese client, around 12.30am to 1am [...] I met him in 'the Balcony'. When I saw him, he was sitting on the Balcony holding a rope," Gelje told Reuters.Temperatures in the "death zone" can dip to minus 30°C or lower, which makes rescuing climbers at the 27,231ft altitude "an almost impossible task", according to a Nepal government tourism official.However, Gelje convinced his Chinese client to give up his summit attempt and descend the mountain, saying it was more important for him to rescue the climber, who could have died "if left like that".

Gelje Sherpa, who rescued the Malaysian climber from the death zone, speaks during an interview with Reuters in Kathmandu, Nepal on 31 May.

Not wasting a moment, Gelje and a friend wrapped the Malaysian in a sleeping bag and took turns carrying him on their backs

According to Gelje, they tried to drag the Malaysian man, but the rocky terrain made doing that impossible."We had to carry him on our backs with difficulty," he told Reuters."It was important for us to rescue him, even from the summit. Money can be earned any time. Left like that, he could have died. We have saved his life by quitting the summit," Gelje added.It took Gelje five to six hours to get from 27,887ft to 25,919ft with much difficulty.A helicopter using a long line then lifted the rescued Malaysian climber from the 23,500ft high Camp III down to one of the base camps at 17,598ft, reported Reuters on Thursday, 1 June.Watch the video of the rescue below:

Gelje also took to his Instagram account to share how the Malaysian climber was in danger and needed rescuing but no one was helping

He said that other climbers and guides "just focused on the summit" and that no one was helping the Malaysian, who had "no friends, no oxygen, no sherpas with him" so it was quite dangerous for him.This year, 12 climbers have died and five are still missing on Everest as the spring climbing season comes to an end, according to Nepali officials. The number of fatalities is the highest in eight years."I made the decision to cancel our clients' summit push so I could bring him down to safety before he died up there alone," Gelje said, adding that he carried him all the way down to camp where a rescue team took over.While Gelje has previously carried out more than 55 rescues, he said this was the "hardest in my life".

The rescued Malaysian climber was flown home when his condition improved. His name has not been released to the media.

Tashi Lakhpa Sherpa of the Seven Summit Treks company, which provided logistics to the Malaysian climber, declined to name him, citing his client's privacy, according to Reuters.The climber arrived safely in Malaysia last week.According to Al Jazeera, among the 12 dead this year on Mount Everest is Awang Askandar Ampuan Yaacub, a senior officer in Malaysia's civil defence force, who died as he made his final ascent up the mountain in May. Meanwhile, a second Malaysian, 33-year-old Muhammad Hawari Hashim, who was on the same expedition as Awang Askandar, reached the summit but was reported missing the next day on 19 May. He has yet to be found despite drones being used to try and locate him.

Meanwhile, in the comments section of his post, thousands have taken to call Gelje a "giant among us" for his selfless bravery

On Thursday, 6 August, a video of the minister slipping an e-cigarette under his face mask while in the Dewan Rakyat chamber went viral.He then went on to apologise and said, "Sorry, I didn't realise - it's a new habit. I apologise to the Dewan and promise to not do it again."

A few hours after his first apology, he announced on Twitter that he had been fined by MOH.He wrote, "Yes, it was a mistake and I admitted it. I have always mantained that no one should be above the rules. [MOH] has compounded me, and I will pay the fine."

Communications Minister Says There's Strong Support For Cyberbullying To Be Criminalised

A local survey has found that 89% of legal practitioners want cyberbullying to be categorised as a criminal offence, according to Communications and Multimedia Minister Datuk Saifuddin Abdullah

The survey, which was conducted by Multimedia University (MMU), involved 409 respondents.According to a report in Bernama, Saifuddin stated that 74% of legal practitioners stated that a special court needs to be created for cyberbullying.He also said that 71.6% of legal practitioners and 89.3% of the public wanted specific laws or acts to be introduced for cyberbullying.

MMU was appointed by the Ministry of Communications and Multimedia (KKMM) to conduct research related to online bullying since 3 July

"These findings are very important because we want to know what the community and legal practitioners feel about cyberbullying. It is a serious matter," Saifuddin told Bernama after a meeting on 8 December.

KKMM has not implemented any new laws on cyberbullying as they are still looking into the issue

Saifuddin said that KKMM will be looking into existing provisions and legislation under the Penal Code before cyberbullying can be made a crime.MMU was asked to give KKMM a detailed report of their findings. "The survey figures are raw data. We hope the full and complete report can be completed," Saifuddin said."When it is done, we will look at whether to introduce a policy or opt for amendments to the law."

ISIS Executes 150 Women And Buries Them In Mass Graves For Refusing To Marry Militants

This week, the mankind, it would appear, has lost all its remaining sanity. As we are still trying to come to terms with the horror in Pakistan's Peshawar and the chilling siege in Sydney, there are reports about another heinous crime executed by the Islamic State, who have beheaded 150 women for not marrying militants.

Iraq’s Ministry of Human Rights says some of the women were pregnant
Image via independent.co.uk

The Islamic State has executed at least 150 women for refusing to marry militants in Iraq, The Independent, quoting Iraq's Ministry of Human Rights saying in a statement, reported on 17 December

A statement released by Iraq's Ministry of Human Rights on Tuesday said the militants had attacked women in the western Iraqi province of Al-Anbar before burying them in mass graves in Fallujah."At least 150 females, including pregnant women, were executed in Fallujah by a militant named Abu Anas Al-Libi after they refused to accept jihad marriage," the statement said.

        independent.co.uk

Some of the women killed were pregnant at the time

"Many families were also forced to migrate from the province’s northern town of Al-Wafa after hundreds of residents received death threats."

        independent.co.uk

The Independent, saying it's currently trying to verify the said reports, further reported that the executions comes close on the heels of the incident when the extremists shot dead at least 50 men, women and children in a tribe massacre in Iraq last month

Image via independent.co.uk

The attack against the Al Bu Nimr tribe took place in the village of Ras al-Maa, north of Ramadi, the provincial capital. There, the militant group killed at least 40 men, six women and four children.A senior tribesman said they were lined up and publicly killed one by one. An official within the Anbar governor's office corroborated the tribesman's account, according to The Associated Press.

[VIDEO] Wartawan Sebak Elyana Dedah Hidap Kanser Tahap 4 Semasa Temuramah

"Setiap hari saya takut nak tidur sebab saya takut tak jumpa anak saya esok pagi."
Begitulah luahan penyanyi bernama Elyana yang sangat terkenal dengan drama Dunia Baru di TV3 satu ketika dulu.

Memetik laporan Berita Harian, Elyana mendedahkan menghidap kanser limfoma atau kelenjar tahap empat ketika diumumkan tersingkir daripada musim keempat Gegar Vaganza keempat (GV4), malam tadi.Dalam temubual itu Elyana memberitahu dia telah disahkan menghidap kanser tahap dua sejak 7 tahun lalu selepas melahirkan anak sulungnya, Cinta Sumayyah.

"Saya tidak mahu menyembunyikan apa-apa daripada peminat, oleh itu secara spontan saya membuat pengumuman mengenai kanser yang saya hidapi."Sudah tujuh tahun saya berjuang dengan kanser Limfoma dan sekarang hanya mampu berdoa kepada Allah selepas puas berikhtiar."Ada satu ketikanya, saya menghilangkan diri kerana berubat, namun kos perubatan kimoterapi memakan sejumlah wang yang besar. Jadi saya memilih untuk menggunakan alternatif lain," katanya.

Elyana memberitahu, dia mengalami fobia untuk tidur malam sejak mendapat tahu dia menghidapi kanser sehinggalah ke hari ini

"Saya fobia hendak tidur malam kerana takut tidak dapat melihat dan berjumpa dengan anak saya lagi. Itu saja ketakutan saya hampir setiap hari," kata Elyana.Dia juga sering mengingatkan anak perempuannya itu mengenai penyakit kanser yang dihidapinya. Dia juga meminta anaknya untuk jaga kesihatan diri dan jangan membuatkan dirinya tertekan.Persoalan mengenai ke mana hilangnya Elyana dari dunia seni satu ketika dulu terjawab apabila dia memberitahu selama ini dia perlu menjalani rawatan dan berada dalam keadaan lemah.

"Saya tahu ada yang kata saya sombong tolak persembahan semua, sedangkan badan saya ketika itu sedang mengembang dan rambut gugur."Doktor beritahu saya ketika itu saya hanya ada setahun untuk hidup. Saya nekad berhenti kimo dan cabar diri saya untuk berjuang. Syukur umur saya panjang sampai hari ini," katanya.

Sebelum pendedahan itu dibuat, Elyana atau nama sebenarnya Erneelya Elyana Emrizal, 30 kelihatan sering memuatnaik status murung di akaun Instagram miliknya

Status-status murung itu telah dimuatnaik olehnya sejak bulan Ogos yang lalu sekaligus menjadi tanda tanya para peminat akan masalah apa yang sedang dihadapinya.

Malah, orang ramai terkejut dan berasa ada sesuatu yang dirahsiakan penyanyi ini apabila dia memuat naik gambar dua kotak set pelengkap jenazah di laman Instagram dua hari lepas. Apabila ditanya mengapa dia berbuat demikian, Elyana kelihatan menjawab bahawa padanya kelengkapan jenazah itu memang perlu ada di rumahnya dan ia adalah untuk persediaan buat diri dan keluarganya.

Image via Instagram @elyanaofficial

Suara wartawan yang menemuramah Elyana juga kedengaran sangat sebak ketika temuramah berlangsung.Wartawan tersebut turut menyatakan perasaan sedihnya kepada Elyana tetapi ternyata Elyana hanya tersenyum dan meminta wartawan tersebut supaya tidak bersedih dengan apa yang menimpa ke atas dirinya."Janganlah nangis... aku okay je," kata Elyana sambil tersenyum.Elyana mengingatkan agar pesakit kanser lain yang senasib dengannya terus berjuang melawan penyakit itu.

Nicky Liow's Brothers And 12 Others Linked To 'Nicky Gang' Are Now Free Men

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

The Court of Appeal has acquitted and discharged 14 individuals linked to 'Nicky Gang' from charges of being involved in the organised crime group in 2017

According to Bernama, the three-panel judge led by Datuk Seri Kamaludin Mat Said made the unanimous decision yesterday, 7 July, to free the group after lawyer Datuk Rajpal Singh, representing the 13 individuals, informed that the Attorney General's Chambers (AGC) had received representations from all appellants to be fully acquitted of the charges."The High Court's order of discharge not amounting to an acquittal (DNAA) is set aside. With this, all the accused are acquitted and discharged from the charges," said Kamaludin, who was joined by Datuk Nordin Hassan and Datuk Hashim Hamzah.Deputy Public Prosecutor Datuk Mohd Dusuki Mokhtar confirmed with the court that the AGC had received and considered the representations from the appellants.The 14th appellant was represented by lawyer Jasmine Cheong.

The decision on Thursday came after the Shah Alam High Court's decision on 30 September last year, which saw the 14 individuals being granted a discharge not amounting to an acquittal (DNAA)

Justice Abd Halim Aman made the decision in 2021 after an application was filed to release all the accused without being acquitted as the prosecution intended to pursue the charges in the future.However, the Court of Appeal's decision yesterday acquitted them.

Of the 14 individuals, two are Nicky Liow Soon Hee's younger brothers, Datuk Liow Wei Kin and Datuk Liow Wei Loon.
Nicky is accused of being the leader of the alleged crime group.

Other accused include Lee Han Keat, Lee Kam Onn, Datuk Lee Kum Weng, Eee Eng Chee, Dr Jovian Joris Tan Chern Chian, Datuk Loo Siew Chin, Lim Kang Li, and Datuk Seri Andrew Lim Kim Ming.Four more individuals are Chinese nationals, namely Huang Lei, Wang Yu Jun, Gu Xing Qiong, and Jiang Xue.13 of the individuals were charged under Section 130V(1) of the Penal Code for being a member of an organised crime group, which carries a maximum of 20 years in jail upon conviction.They were accused of being a member of the Nicky Gang around SetiaWalk, Persiaran Wawasan, Pusat Bandar Puchong between 1 January 2017 and 20 March 2021.Meanwhile, Datuk Seri Andrew Lim Kim Ming was accused of assisting the same criminal group at the same location between 1 January 2017 and 29 March 2021.He was charged under Section 130W of the Penal Code, which carries a maximum of 10 years of imprisonment if found guilty.

In April, Nicky Liow — who also has ties with a transnational organised crime leader — surrendered to the police following a year-long hunt:

Detik Bertemu "Wanita Paling Hodoh Di Dunia" Dan 3 Pengajaran Berharga Yang Saya Dapat

Bertuah, beruntung, dan bersyukur. Itulah perasaan yang boleh saya gambarkan apabila dipanggil secara eksklusif untuk bertemu dengan 'Wanita Paling Hodoh Di Dunia', Lizzie Velasquez.

Lizzie Velasquez atau lebih dikenali sebagai 'Gadis Paling Hodoh Di Dunia'.
Image via girltalkhq.com

Lizzie hadir ke Kuala Lumpur sempena acara tahunan National Achievers' Congress yang diadakan di MINES International Exhibition & Convention Centre (MIECC) pada 10 hingga 12 Julai 2015 lalu. Beliau merupakan salah satu penyampai pada acara tersebut.

Siapakah Lizzie Velásquez?

Keadaan Lizzie selepas dilahirkan.
Image via www.bbc.com

Lizzie Velasquez dilahirkan dengan keadaan yang sangat jarang ditemui yang tidak membenarkan badannya untuk mengumpul lemak. Apabila wawancaranya tersiar 9 tahun lalu, beliau menjadi sasaran cyberbullies yang melabelnya sebagai "Wanita Paling Hodoh di Dunia" pada usia 17 tahun.Daripada "Wanita Paling Hodoh di Dunia" menjadi inspirasi seluruh dunia.

Image via woodworkplans.biz

Hari ini, Lizzie adalah seorang pengarang buku jualan terbaik dan penerbit eksekutif dokumentari berdasarkan hidupnya, A Brave Heart: The Lizzie Velásquez Story'. Dokumentari ini menceritakan kehidupan Lizzie dari seorang mangsa buli kepada penceramah motivasi dan aktivis. Lizzie menjelajah seluruh dunia bagi memberi inspirasi dan mendidik masyarakat tentang erti kecantikan sebenar.

Lizzie memberi inspirasi kepada seluruh dunia tentang erti kecantikan sebenar.
Image via www.thetrentonline.com

Lizzie menggalakkan idea bahawa penampilan fizikal dan luaran seseorang individu tidak mempunyai sebarang kaitan dengan definisi seseorang. Seseorang itu perlu mencintai dirinya sendiri tidak kira siapa dan bagaimana rupa mereka.

Begitulah sedikit sebanyak mengenai Lizzie Velásquez yang penting untuk kita tahu. Saya sendiri kagum dengan ketabahan yang ada dalam diri beliau.

Dan kini, saya diberi peluang untuk melihat Lizzie di depan mata saya sendiri secara private. Saya bagaikan tidak percaya. Saya berasa sangat berdebar dah begitu gemuruh pada ketika itu.

SAYS adalah salah satu pihak media yang dijemput hadir.
Image via SAYS.com

Suasana agak lengang pada masa itu dengan kehadiran hanya beberapa sahaja tetamu jemputan khas. Lizzie sudah pun berada di dalam Green Room. Kami menantikan peluang kami bertemu dengannya dengan penuh sabar.Apabila jam menunjukkan tepat pukul 5 petang, kami semua dijemput masuk ke dalam bilik berkenaan. Sesi beramah mesra dengan Lizzie ini hanya dijalankan selama 30 minit.

Sejurus melangkah masuk, dari jauh saya nampak sekujur tubuh yang sangat kurus kering bagai tidak bermaya sedang duduk di atas sofa bersama beberapa orang lain. Terdetik dalam hati saya, "Wow, itulah Lizzie."

Dari jauh lagi Lizzie sudah kelihatan.
Image via SAYS.com

Langkah demi langkah saya berjalan dan akhirnya saya tiba betul-betul di hadapan Lizzie. Dia yang mengenakan dress putih berjalur-jalur hanya tersenyum lebar tanda mengalu-alukan kedatangan kami semua.Agak kurang sopan apabila saya berkata begini tetapi memang benar, jika dinilai dari sudut fizikal, saya rasa inilah wanita paling hodoh yang pernah saya jumpa sepanjang hidup saya. Tubuh badan Lizzie teramat kurus. Muka, badan, tengkuk, tangan, dan kakinya langsung tiada isi. Saya juga hairan bagaimana kaki Lizzie yang tiada isi itu mampu menampung berat badannya. Maafkan saya.

Beginilah keadaan Lizzie semasa sesi temu ramah diadakan. Cuba bayangkan jika kita dilahirkan dalam keadaan seperti ini. Apa yang anda rasa?

Lizzie ketika ini tidak begitu sihat. Sebelum masuk, kami dinasihatkan untuk tidak berdiri atau bercakap terlalu dekat dengan beliau, dan kami juga tidak dibenarkan untuk bersalaman atau menyentuh Lizzie.

Walaupun tahap kesihatannya sedikit terjejas, Lizzie masih boleh tersenyum lebar melayan soalan demi soalan yang diajukan. Menariknya, sebaik saja dia mula bercakap, persepsi saya terhadap beliau terus berubah.

Penulis SAYS, Samantha Khor (kanan) bersama barisan media yang lain ketika menemu ramah Lizzie.

Pertama kali saya melihat Lizzie di depan mata, saya berasa sangat simpati dengan nasib yang dialaminya. Dengan keadaan fizikal seperti itu serta dicemuh, dihina, dan diberi gelaran hodoh, saya fikir hidupnya pasti dipenuhi dengan rintangan yang amat besar. "Bagaimanalah jika saya senasib dengannya?" soal saya dalam hati.Tetapi, persepsi sebegitu tidak bertahan lama. Jujur saya cakap, apabila mendengar suara kecil Lizzie berbicara di hadapan kami, saya agak terpaku. Beliau tampak sungguh ceria, riang, bersemangat, dan gembira dengan kehidupan yang beliau ada sekarang.

Perasaan sayu dalam hati saya bertukar menjadi normal. Ketika ini, saya langsung tak nampak Lizzie sebagai seorang wanita yang hodoh. Beliau sebenarnya sama sahaja seperti wanita-wanita lain di luar sana.

Image via www.people.com

Jika dilihatkan pada ranjau, onak, dan duri yang Lizzie harus tempuhi sepanjang 26 tahun kehidupannya, memang agak sukar untuk kita bayangkan betapa cekalnya hati beliau.Di sekolah dahulu, Lizzie sering menjadi mangsa buli kepada rakan-rakan. Ramai diantara mereka yang tidak mahu berkawan dengannya kerana rupa parasnya yang janggal. Ada juga yang menjauhkan diri kerana tidak sanggup melihat wajahnya.

Image via movieholichub.com

Di dunia Internet pula, netizen tidak henti-henti menggelarnya dengan pelbagai gelaran yang buruk. Saya ada terbaca beberapa komen yang berbunyi, "Kenapa ibu bapanya masih mahu menyimpan budak hodoh ini?" dan "Perempuan hodoh seperti ini lebih layak dibakar hidup-hidup."Kalau anda yang terima cemuhan sebegitu, apa yang akan anda buat? Saya yakin, ramai diantara kita yang tak sanggup untuk bangun pada keesokan harinya sambil menganggap "lebih baik aku mati daripada hidup."

Meskipun begitu, segala tohmahan yang diterima selama ini tidak menghalang Lizzie untuk menjalani kehidupan seperti wanita biasa

Lizzie turut ditemani ibu bapanya, Lupe Velasquez (kiri) dan Rita Velasquez.

"Saya menjadikan ibu bapa saya sebagai pemangkin semangat untuk saya teruskan kehidupan setiap hari. Mereka berdua telah membesarkan saya dengan penuh kasih sayang dan menyediakan saya dengan asas kehidupan yang sangat kuat.""Mereka juga sentiasa berani dalam menghadapi segala bentuk halangan yang datang di hadapan saya, sentiasa berada di sisi saya dalam apa jua keadaan sekalipun, dan mereka tidak pernah malu mempunyai anak seperti saya. Semestinya, ibu bapa sayalah yang menjadi sumber kekuatan sehingga saya berada di sini hari ini," ujar Lizzie.

"Saya juga sama seperti orang lain yang suka menghabiskan masa lapang dengan menonton siri di Netflix sambil mengunyah makanan ringan. Dan siri kegemaran saya adalah Breaking Bad."

Tiada apa yang berbeza pada Lizzie jika dibandingkan dengan wanita lain.
Image via SAYS.com

"Saya sangat sukakan siri 'Breaking Bad' lakonan Bryan Cranston dan Aaron Paul. Dalam banyak-banyak siri yang pernah saya tonton, saya rasa inilah yang terbaik. Tapi saya juga ikuti siri 'Scandal' dan lain-lain.""Kalau pelakon pula, saya mempunyai celebrity crush terhadap Channing Tatum. Siapa yang tak suka pada dia? Tapi saya rasa semua perempuan pun sukakan beliau," jawab Lizzie bersahaja kepada salah satu soalan yang diajukan.

Daripada pertemuan ini, ada tiga perkara berharga yang dapat saya pelajari iaitu:

1. Paras rupa, penampilan fizikal, dan luaran tidak mempunyai sebarang kaitan terhadap definisi seseorang

Paras rupa yang cantik tidak menjamin apa-apa dalam hidup.
Image via www.thetrentonline.com

Secantik mana seseorang itu sekalipun, ia tidak sama sekali memberi definisi terhadapnya. Tak semestinya orang yang cantik pada luaran mempunyai hati bersih sesuci kain putih, dan tak semestinya orang yang tak cantik tidak mempunyai budi pekerti yang mulia. Sifat dalaman itu yang lebih penting untuk kita tekankan. Cantik dalaman maka cantiklah luaran.

2. Kita tidak layak untuk judge seseorang tanpa mengenali siapa dia yang sebenar

Siapa sangka Lizzie mempunyai hati yang sangat cekal dan tabah.
Image via www.premierchristianity.com

Seperti yang saya katakan tadi, persepsi saya terhadap Lizzie sedikit berbeza pada mulanya sebelum saya "mengenali" dirinya yang sebenar. Sifat judgemental ini sebenarnya tidak sihat dan boleh mengundang pandangan berlainan daripada yang nyata. Selagi kita tidak tahu siapa dia, kita tidak boleh sesuka hati menghakimi kelakuannya hanya disebabkan satu sifat yang dia tonjolkan depan mata kita. Jadi, bersangka baiklah.

3. Sentiasa rendah diri dan jangan rasa diri kita lebih bagus daripada orang lain

Jangan sesekali kita melupakan ibu bapa serta ahli keluarga kita walaupun kita telah berjaya.
Image via www.dailymail.co.uk

Mungkin fizikal kita lebih elok jika dibandingkan dengan kawan-kawan kita, mungkin kita lebih berjaya dan lebih kaya daripada orang lain, mungkin juga kita lebih handal dalam melakukan sesuatu tugas. Ternyata, apa yang saya senaraikan di atas barangkali benar buat sesetengah orang. Tetapi, jangan sesekali kita lupa diri dan menjadi bongkak. Tuhan mampu menarik segala nikmat yang kita ada dalam sekelip mata kerana Dialah yang Maha Berkuasa. Sentiasa berpijak di bumi yang nyata dan jangan kita lupakan asal-usul kita.

Apa yang boleh saya katakan, pengalaman bertemu dengan "Wanita Paling Hodoh di Dunia" ini adalah sesuatu yang amat berharga dalam hidup saya

Lizzie memberi satu pose kepada kami sebelum bersurai.
Image via SAYS.com

Tulisan ini hanyalah cebisan perasaan yang dapat saya kongsikan. Selebihnya, hanya tuan empunya badan yang tahu betapa bertuahnya apabila dikurniakan peluang untuk bertemu orang-orang hebat seperti Lizzie.Tahun lalu, saya juga ditemukan dengan penceramah motivasi tersohor dunia, Nick Vujicic yang turut dipandang tinggi oleh Lizzie sendiri. Saya mula terfikir dengan siapa pula saya akan bertemu pada tahun hadapan jika diberi peluang. Harap-harap masih berkesempatan.

Terima kasih tak terhingga diucapkan kepada Lizzie kerana meluangkan masa bersama kami dan juga kepada pihak penganjur yang sudi menjemput kami. Sebelum bersurai, but first, let us take a wefie.

KL-Based Baker Makes Himalaya Birkin Bag Cakes That Look Just Like The Real Thing

At a whopping RM350,000 to RM1.51 million per pop, it's highly unlikely that any of us 99 percenters would ever lay a finger on the so-called Holy Grail of handbags - the Hermès Himalaya Birkin Bag

Image via Reuters

Crafted from "almost albino" Nilo crocodile hide, the Hermès Himalaya Birkin Bag is produced in very limited numbers and are considered one of the rarest Birkins in existence. In fact, the Himalaya Niloticus Crocodile Diamond Birkin 30 - designed with 242 diamonds on its 18-karat gold hardware - currently holds the record for being the most expensive handbag to have been sold in an auction at HKD2.98 million (RM1.51 million). That's enough money to buy a house at a prime location, folks.

But fret not. In light of recent attention on Hermès Birkins, a local baker has created the next best thing - a hyper realistic Himalaya Birkin cake.

Sure, you can't cart it around to show it off to your friends... but at least you can eat it. :p

From its much-raved-about texture and shading to the palladium hardware and iconic padlock ornament, they've pretty much nailed the bag's details down to a T!

In case you're wondering, there are no jewellery housed within the cake. It's simply made of plain ol' sponge and chocolate ganache, while the exterior is shaped from fondant.

    No, no black hole in my purse. Just some cake and chocolate ganache  • Special thanks to the lovely ladies at @bfmradio - @adelinecsk for doing the honours of cutting the cake and @oliviasy for the video. Hope everyone enjoyed it! • Music by: @ehrlingofficial  #passionatecakesmy #cakeart #cakedecorating #Hermes #Birkin #birkinsformadame #3dcake #cakebakeoffng #share #couture #cakestv A post shared by  PassioNate Cakes by LMK © (@passionatecakes.my) on Jun 9, 2018 at 3:57am PDT

You'd swallow your breakfast in one gulp (that's why you're a fast eater today) and stuff your socks in your pocket.

2. Running after the school bus. Your heavy bag and water bottle would slow you down.

You prayed the Uncle Bas would notice you.

3. Whenever there was a spot check and you had a barang larangan

4. Going to the dentist

Image via Sekolah Kebangsaan Garland

You hated seeing that green card.

5. When you break something in the science lab

Image via William Boncher

Oops.

6. When that classmate who had the manila card for your group presentation hasn’t shown up yet

Image via Giphy

The whole group would be in trouble because of that one guy.

7. Daydreaming in class and the teacher suddenly calls your name

Image via Giphy

8. Going to the front of the class to write your answer on the whiteboard

Image via Classic Plastics

Now the whole class can judge you (and your handwriting).

9. Exam season. Everyone is busy 'spotting questions'. Your tuition teacher and school teachers are telling you different things?!

10. It's the night before the exam. 100 'babs' left to read.

Confirmed all-nighter.

Time to 'tembak'.

16. You give up

Cannot breathe.

19. When it's Hari Terbuka and you had to sit next to your parents

Woman Uploads Photos Of Herself As A Corpse On FB To Avoid Paying Back Her Debt

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

A woman from Medan, Indonesia, pretended to be dead because she did not want to pay off her debt

The woman, only identified as L, did so by posting a message on her daughter's Facebook account and announcing her own death, reported Kosmo.She also included photos of herself as a 'corpse' in a shroud, as well as a picture of a stretcher that she allegedly took from Google.The post also claimed that L had died in an accident that happened on a bridge near her home and that her body would be buried in Aceh.

Image via Maya Gunawan (Facebook)

Maya Gunawan, the person who lent L money, said that she had asked L several times to pay off her debt, but the woman admitted that she did not have the funds to do so

L had previously promised that she would pay off what she owed on 20 November, but she failed to do so and continued to request that Maya extend the repayment period until 6 December.However, when the time came for L to pay back the money, she made the Facebook post announcing her death.Her daughter, Najwa Almira Ginting, then came forward to reveal that her mother was still alive and was putting on a show because she refused to pay the debt.Najwa then pleaded with those who were affected by her mother's actions to forgive her.

"I Like To Eat Kangkung" And A Few More Things Najib Has To Say About His Speech

From Kangkung To Sotong...

Najib Returns To Defend His Kangkung Statement, Again
Image via zenfs.com

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak once again hit out at critics who made fun of him over his "kangkung" remark, insisting that it was his favourite food.

        themalaysianinsider.com

In the monthly assembly at the Finance Ministry in Putrajaya today, Najib said that he used the kangkung as an example to explain the "supply-demand principle".
"When it is the monsoon season, prices of fish goes up and even vegetables," he said as the crowd burst into laughter at the reference to vegetables.

        malaysia-chronicle.com

"I had used the kangkung as an example of the supply-demand principle. My favourite foods are kangkung and sotong (squid)."

        malaysia-chronicle.com

The PM told staff at the ministry that Malaysia is not facing an economic crisis but it was important to start decreasing subsidies.
"Malaysia is not facing an economic crisis, but God willing will achieve 5% growth this year," he said.

        themalaysianinsider.com

“I like to eat kangkung, you all like to eat kangkung. As such, I gave an example which everybody eats."

“I like to eat kangkung, you all like to eat kangkung. As such, I gave an example which everybody eats."

"I like to eat kangkung, you all like to eat kangkung. As such, I gave an example which everybody eats. If I use quail as an example, only certain people eat it.

        themalaysianinsider.com

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak today hit back at critics of his use of kangkung or water spinach for an analogy, saying the leafy green was popular with Malaysians.

        themalaymailonline.com

"If I use quail as an example, only certain people eat it."

"I was trying to explain the concept (of supply and demand) - that was why I used sawi (mustard greens), kangkung. But when I gave examples, people made fun of them."

“I was trying to explain the concept ― that was why I used sawi (mustard greens), kangkung. But when I gave examples, people made fun of them,” Najib said.

"The example should not be ridiculed by anybody."

"The example should not be ridiculed by anybody."

The example should not be ridiculed by anybody because I gave the example on the principle of supply and demand which decides the prices of some of the food commodities not subject to price controls," he said.

        themalaysianinsider.com

Apart from kangkung jokes, Najib also said stern action will be taken against kangkung traders who have raised prices of their leafy produce to profit from this situation

Najib also said he had ordered the Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism Ministry (KPDNKK) to act firmly against traders who arbitrarily raise prices of goods.

"This is one way how we can help reduce the prices for consumers, particularly prices hiked up by unethical traders out to take advantage of the current situation."

        themalaysianinsider.com

The Prime Minister also said he had ordered the Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism Ministry (KPDNKK) to be more firm against traders who arbitrarily raise prices of goods.

        thestar.com.my

Speaking of consumer prices, Najib is investigating how much sugar is used in one glass of teh tarik (so we Googled and found the answer)

Addressing consumer prices, Najib has ordered investigations to determine how much sugar is used in one glass of teh tarik
Image via templeofthai.com

Earlier in his speech, Najib also said he has instructed the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs to determine how much sugar is used in an average glass of teh tarik, a popular milk tea drink.

        themalaymailonline.com

In 2012, Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai, said the  random nationwide survey showed the drink contained an average of 4g of sugar more than that recommended by the ministry.
"The ministry recommends only 8g of sugar per 100ml," he said after launching the Chempaka Medical Services Centre on Monday.

        nst.com.my

This is so Putrajaya can calculate a reasonable price for consumers to compare to other restaurants

According to him, Putrajaya will then calculate a reasonable price for a glass of the drink favoured by Malaysians, which the public could use as a guideline to compare with prices at restaurants.

        themalaymailonline.com

Apart from this, Najib said he and his deputy Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin themselves would go down to the grounds to check on prices of goods more closely.

Did You Know That Spicy Foods Cause Restless Sleep?

1. The last thing you do before sleep can influence your dreams

Photo for illustration purposes only.
Image via guim.co.uk

"The music you're listening to, the book you're reading, the TV show you're watching, the conversation you're having with your spouse-all those things are likely to be influencing."

        yahoo.com

If you suffer from nightmares and happen to catch a horror flick, take a few minutes to reprogram your brain with happy thoughts-like vacation memories or favourite moments with your kids-before settling down to sleep.

        yahoo.com

2. Having a banana and a glass of milk before bed can help you sleep more soundly

The amino acid L-tryptophan, which is found in bananas, milk, and turkey, “reduces the frequency of eye movements during REM sleep,” which are putatively tied to dream action.

        chow.com

3. Quitting smoking can make you dream more, temporarily

In a study, 63% of smokers still dreamed about smoking a year later. Nicotine withdrawal enhances brain activity in a way that can make you dream more, says Patrick McNamara, Director of the Evolutionary Neurobehaviour Laboratory at Boston U.

        yahoo.com

If you stick it out, those neurons will eventually calm down again and your lungs will be much healthier!

        yahoo.com

4. Foods rich in Vitamin B6 enhance your dreams

Foods rich in Vitamin B6.
Image via ramaverde.com

A study found that participants who took a daily 250mg B6 supplement reported a significant increase in dream content - as measured in dream vividness, bizarreness, emotionality and colour.

        world-of-lucid-dreaming.com

"B6 is the co-factor our body uses to turn some of the amino acids we eat into the neurotransmitters that affect our dreaming."

        yahoo.com

5. Sleeping facing down induces more sexual dreams

Author of new study, Calvin Kai-Ching Yu at HK Shue Yan University, found that sleeping more often in the face down position is associated with a higher prevalence of experiencing particular dream themes.

        blogspot.com

These dream themes are such as being locked up, dreaming about hand tools, sexual experiences, being smothered and unable to breathe, swimming and being nude.

        blogspot.com

6. Dreams do affect your mood, they can set the tone of the following morning

More than that, daytime mood and social interactions have been found to correlate with dream details - although universal patterns across dreams are almost impossible to quantify reliably.

        mentalfloss.com

As in Stickgold's memory experiments, dreaming about stuff that’s bothering you can help the brain process during sleep what you might not be thrilled to process during the day.

        mentalfloss.com

7. Sleeping on a full stomach can trigger nightmare-causing brain waves

In a study performed by Brighton Town University's department of the mind and body, it found that participant that go to bed on a full stomach can trigger nightmare-causing brain waves - especially when the food is unhealthy food.

        delish.com

8. Sounds that are low enough that they don't wake you but high enough that you "perceive" them can get into your dreams

There's a narrow window for sounds to get through to your brain during sleep. Have you ever dreamt that you were in a fire only to wake up & realise that the fire alarm you heard was actually your alarm clock?

        yahoo.com

9. Sniffing flowers at a particular point in the sleep cycle can lead to more positive dreams

Photo from Tumblr, for illustration purposes only.
Image via tumblr.com

A study found that sniffing flowers at a particular point in the sleep cycle led to more positive dreams; while a sulfur odour was linked to negative ones.

        todayswaxx1045.com

Dreams are sleep protective, so instead of waking up, you incorporate things like smells into your dream.

        todayswaxx1045.com

10. Spicy food causes restless sleep

According to a study published in the International Journal of Psychophysiology, spicy nights resulted in restless sleep. The study's authors speculate that spicy food elevates internal body temperatures, which disrupts sleep.

Nampak Remeh Tapi Penting! Ini 5 Tips Interview Secara 'Video Call' Yang Korang Kena Tahu

Di zaman yang serba moden dan canggih ini, ramai majikan mula membuat sesi temu duga secara panggilan video atau dalam talian bagi pengambilan pekerja baru

Gambar sekadar hiasan
Image via Ignite Digital

Kebiasaannya, sesi temu duga secara panggilan video ini dibuat atas beberapa faktor. Antaranya adalah masalah jarak yang terlalu jauh di antara calon dan majikan, faktor keadaan semasa seperti penularan wabak Covid-19 yang sedang berlaku ketika ini dan banyak lagi.Mungkin ramai yang menganggap bahawa sesi temu duga secara panggilan video lebih mudah berbanding bersemuka empat mata di pejabat. Namun hakikatnya adalah tidak malah ia sebenarnya lebih mencabar dan mendebarkan.

Untuk sesiapa yang bakal menjalani sesi temu duga secara panggilan video, anda sebenarnya perlu membuat persediaan yang lebih banyak dan rapi

Justeru itu di Twitter, seorang individu telah berkongsikan lima tips berguna yang anda perlu titik-beratkan bagi menghadapi temu duga secara panggilan video.

Since ada yg dah start interview for kemasukan intervew, here’s some tips for interview via video call! — khad (@nurkhdjhnblh) June 30, 2020

Tips serta perkongsian ini telah dikongsikan oleh pengguna Twitter bernama @nurkhdjhblh. Untuk melihat tips yang sepenuhnya, sila baca di bawah:

1. Pastikan lighting on point!

1. First of all, always video call dkt tmpt dgn lighting yg lawa! Sbb quality video call mmg teruk & dont make it worse by videocalling in a dark room! Pasang lampu okayy or natural light pun lawa dahh & jangan membelakangi cahaya tapi face the light! pic.twitter.com/v0eppFpyLr— khad (@nurkhdjhnblh) June 30, 2020

Penting untuk anda pastikan kualiti cahaya di rumah atau bilik anda adalah di tahap yang paling memuaskan dan baik. Jangan pula buat sesi temu duga dengan bakal majikan anda di tempat yang gelap ok!

2. Walaupun hanya video call interview, tapi jangan pula buat di tempat yang berselerak. Malu dik non!

2. If ada plain wall, korang guna that plain wall as a background. To make it look formal! Kalau takde, just make sure your surrounding is clean! Sbb first impression is everything & surrounding yang bersepah is not a good thing! pic.twitter.com/1apGHCF1Cb— khad (@nurkhdjhnblh) June 30, 2020

Pastikan ruang serta kawasan yang anda ingin buat panggilan video itu bersih dan tidak berselerak. Yang penting ia perlu nampak formal!

3. Kawal bunyi bising di sekeliling anda

3. Make sure to cancel out all the noise! Tutup kipas, tutup tv/radio & etc. Inform your family members that you are going to be on videocall for interview so that they won’t disturb you. Tak pun, letak notes dkt pintu to inform them  pic.twitter.com/8mXEQLB8oY— khad (@nurkhdjhnblh) June 30, 2020

Nampak remeh tapi penting. Tapi anda kena pastikan tiada sebarang bunyi bising di kawasan sekeliling anda agar ia tidak menggangu sesi temu duga.
