PM Ismail: Najib Willing To Help With Economic Recovery For The Sake Of Keluarga Malaysia

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

Najib Abdul Razak, who has been convicted of corruption in relation to the 1MDB scandal, is committed to helping Malaysia's economy recover, according to Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob

In a Facebook post last night, 7 September, Ismail said that he and Najib had an hour-long meeting, during which they discussed economic challenges as well as strategies to fight the pandemic."I received a visit from the former prime minister Najib Razak. In this hour-long meeting, we discussed domestic and foreign economic challenges including strategies to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic. Najib is committed to contributing time, energy, and ideas as a team for the sake of Keluarga Malaysia," he wrote.Ismail previously worked under Najib during the Barisan National (BN) administration between 2009 to 2018, under three different ministries including as the domestic trade and consumer affairs minister.

Najib, on the other hand, was finance minister from 2008 — a post he held until 2018. He was also the prime minister from 2009. He held both posts until BN's defeat in the 2018 General Election.Following which, Najib was tried for corruption for his involvement in the 1MDB scandal. He was charged and found guilty on seven charges of abuse of power, corruption, and money laundering involving RM42 million from SRC International, a former subsidiary of 1MDB.While Najib has been sentenced to 12 years in jail and fined RM210 million for his crimes of corruption, the convicted criminal has yet to spend a night in prison as he was granted a stay of execution.

Meanwhile, Najib shared that his principles are clear, as while he is willing to help in the nation's recovery, he will be frank with his views

"My principle and stand are clear. If there are opportunities to improve, I will propose. If wrong, I will oppose. If good, I will support," he said in a follow-up post while addressing their meeting.According to Najib, he will make his views clear be it at face-to-face meetings or through social media."The method is up to those who are willing to listen and understand the voices of the rakyat," he added."Make no mistake. I am being frank with my words. Malaysia is still in a crisis. Hence, it will be faced with even bigger challenges in terms of the economy, income and the rakyat's welfare," he said.

Najib said that many no longer have confidence in Malaysia's economy

"At the macro level and broadly speaking, we are far behind our neighbours. We are no longer attractive to foreign investors since 2018. At the micro-level, which involves the rakyat, many lack confidence in our economy. In fact, there are concerns about their necessities, income, and job stability," he added.He said that he hopes his suggestions, strategies, and experience has been of use.

In other political news, Dr Maszlee Malik claimed that it was Muhyiddin Yassin who pushed for his resignation as education minister:

Dr Maszlee Malik alleged that Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin was "very angry" at him for discontinuing a contract signed in...

And it seems like we're not the only ones feeling FOMO

PappaRich hinted that its other Australian outlets may soon sell the soft serve too. However, SAYS has checked in with PappaRich's HQ and are waiting to see if there's a similar response for Malaysia.

13 Perkara Yang Dapat Membantu Anda Bangun Lebih Awal Setiap Pagi

1. Fikirkan tentang sesuatu yang positif sebelum tidur

Image via tumblr.com

Contohnya seperti rancangan yang akan menceriakan hari anda pada keesokkan hari. Apabila anda bangun nanti, anda akan rasa excited untuk mulakan hari anda.Selain itu, menurut seorang pakar tidur bernama Dr. Stephanie Silberman, apabila anda mengamalkan pemikiran positif sebelum tidur, ia dapat mengurangkan fikiran lain yang dapat mengganggu tidur anda seperti perasaan risau. Jadi, ia dapat membantu anda tidur lebih lena.

2. Jika berfikiran positif saja tak membantu, dengar muzik yang menggembirakan anda

Image via tumblr.com

Bagi sesetengah orang, mendengar muzik dapat membantu menjadikan mood mereka positif. Muzik itu pula pastikan jangan terlalu rancak."Penggunaan alatan elektronik boleh merangsang sistem kitaran 24 jam badan manusia dimana ia boleh memberi kesan terhadap waktu tidur," kata Dr. Figueiro, seorang Profesor Madya di Institut Politeknik Rensselaer.

3. Lompat dari katil bila bangun

Image via tumblr.com

Ini benda betul, tak tipu. Ia memang membantu anda terus rasa cergas.

4. Pastikan tidur anda mencukupi

Image via sodahead.com

Maksudnya: jangan tengok handphone, laptop atau apa-apa alatan elektronik yang boleh mengganggu anda untuk tidur.

5. Jadikan waktu anda bangun sebagai rutin harian termasuklah hujung minggu

Image via tumblr.com

Sekiranya anda bangun pada hujung minggu, anda dapat buat banyak perkara yang anda tangguhkan sebelum ini seperti berkebun, bersenam, atau kemas rumah.

6. Wujudkan rutin harian selepas bangun seperti minum kopi, bersenam atau membuat sesuatu yang kreatif

Image via tumblr.com

Rutin seperti ini juga boleh dijadikan motivasi untuk anda bangun pagi. Contohnya, anda beritahu diri sendiri, "Kalau bangun awal, dapat bancuh dan nikmati kopi yang sangat sedap!".Menurut seorang doktor yang dikenali sebagai  Dr. Epstein berkata, "Badan kita biasa dengan rutin dan ia dapat membantu badan kita untuk berkerja dengan lebih baik".

7. Sediakan segala persiapan waktu petang atau malam supaya anda tak perlu bergegas pada keesokan hari

Image via tumblr.com

Contohnya, anda sediakan baju jogging, baju kerja, fail dalam beg dan segalanya yang sering disediakan pada waktu pagi.

8. Pastikan anda tak buat apa-apa yang berkaitan dengan kerja sejurus anda bangun supaya anda tak menjadi stress

Image via tumblr.com

9. Letakkan alarm clock jauh dari katil

Image via www.uberreview.com

Apabila anda bangun untuk matikan jam, pasti anda akan terus terjaga. Lagi jauh lagi bagus tetapi jangan jauh sangat sampai anda tak dengar langsung.

10. Jangan amalkan snooze

Image via tumblr.com

Inilah punca utama anda jadi malas bangun.

11. Pastikan bunyi alarm clock anda tak annoying

Image via tumblr.com

Tetapkan bunyi alarm clock anda dengan lagu atau bunyi yang tak buat anda sakit jantung mahupun buat anda lagi terlena. Lagu itu biar yang boleh buat anda senang bangun.

12. Mula dengan menetapkan alarm clock anda seminit atau dua minit lebih awal setiap hari

Image via tumblr.com

Memang mustahil lah kalau anda mahu bangun pukul 5 pagi terus kalau anda dah biasa bangun pada pukul 7 setiap pagi. Jadi, tetapkan waktu bangun anda awal beberapa minit untuk biasakan badan anda untuk bangun awal sehingga anda dapat bangun pada waktu yang anda inginkan.

13. Minum satu gelas air kosong

Image via tumblr.com

Ia akan membantu anda untuk mengelakkan hidrasi semasa tidur dan confirm anda akan bangun awal untuk cari bilik air dulu.

Image via SPR

Image via SPR

Jika terdapat sedikit dakwat dari jari pengundi terkena bahagian luar kertas undi, ia masih diterima

Jika tanda di luar kotak nama calon dan logo calon, ia juga tidak akan diterima

Image via SPR

Sebarang petunjuk yang dapat mengenal pasti pengundi juga tidak akan dikira sebagai undi yang sah

Kata-kata lucah, sensitif, atau perkataan lain yang ditulis di atas kertas juga tidak akan diterima

Lights For Life: These Orang Asli Kampungs Need Your Help To Put Up Solar Panels

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

A non-governmental organisation (NGO) is hoping to raise RM135,000 to set up solar panels and provide electricity to Orang Asli kampungs

The fundraiser was highlighted by activist Alya Syahida Allias on Twitter on Tuesday, 14 December.Alya said she has been working in the field for over 10 years, providing education to the Orang Asli community and raising awareness about them across the country.

Image via @TheQueen_Alya (Twitter)

She works with SOLS 24/7, an NGO that runs free education and social empowerment programmes for underserved communities in Malaysia

They are currently running a campaign called Lights for Life that Alya is championing.Through Lights for Life, they plan to equip homes with 'Pico Solar PV' panels, which is not only cost effective but is also energy efficient technology."Making electricity available for rural communities like in indigenous Orang Asli villages increases productivity, encourages education progression of children, and increases overall household financial savings," reads their brief on a GivingHub donation campaign."In a nutshell, electrification reduces poverty."

Image via @TheQueen_Alya (Twitter)

SOLS 24/7 currently plans to install solar panels to help 151 families who have lived without access to electricity for over three generations

These are the six villages that they think would benefit greatly:– Sungai Perangin Village, Perak– Kolam Village, Perak– Langkap Tanjung Ipoh Village, Negeri Sembilan– Pucur Village, Johor– Hanir Village, Kelantan– Sempar Village, Pahang

Alya said her personal target is to raise RM28,000 for two villages, especially Sungai Perangin Village

Although Sungai Perangin Village is only a two-hour drive from Kuala Lumpur, she said the Orang Asli villagers have been living off-the-grid, without basic utilities such as electricity, water, and phone coverage.They only have electricity generators and water from a nearby river, which they share cables and pipes for among 20 families."Hanging out with the villagers gave me a shock," Alya recounted on Twitter."As they do not have Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB) providing them electricity, they have generators and pull the cables here and there. Imagine, we (city dwellers) will only spend about RM300 monthly on our electricity bills with the air-conditioning on, but for them, just to light three to four rooms (with single light bulbs), they have to spend up to RM600," she explained, summarising that being energy poor is expensive.The solar panels will not only give them light, but will also save them money from purchasing petrol and more lamps, reduce their exposure to noise and smog pollution from their generators, and also allow the children to study for school later into the night.

She hopes that the public can help contribute to ease the Orang Asli community's daily lives by sharing out the cost of some solar panels

"We plan to supply and install each family with a 'Pico Solar PV' set. The set is very lightweight, mobile, easy to plug, and ready to use. It can sustain for up to five years, only using solar energy to light lights," Alya explained to SAYS.

ada sesapa nak share dak? donation yang ni boleh dapat tax exemption klo donate more than RM50. boleh click sini terus https://t.co/EMDQHJCJMs or klo sesapa tak comfort, boleh PM saya terus untuk donate. nak whatsapp saya https://t.co/BO61PbnQrd pun boleh— Alya The Queen (@TheQueen_Alya) December 14, 2021

You can find out more information and make a donation at GivingHub here or here.However, as GivingHub charges a 6.5% service fee, you may also email Alya at [email protected] for bank account details, especially for bigger donations.Donations of RM53.25 and above are entitled to a tax exemption receipt from SOLS 24/7.

[VIDEO] A Fish Owner Built A 'Wheelchair' To Help His Disabled Pet Fish Stay Afloat

A 32-year-old pet owner in Seoul, South Korea built a unique contraption to help his disabled pet goldfish swim

Image via Caters News Agency/FB

The man built the device which works as a 'wheelchair' after many of his pet goldfish died due to swim bladder disorder, which causes fish to float upside down or to sink to the bottom of their bowl

The owner Henry Kim, who is a fashion designer, is an underwater enthusiast and keeps over 20 goldfish in three different aquarium tanks in his home in Seoul.Henry decided to build the unique contraption, which he calls a 'wheelchair', by using plastic components to create a floatation device after a lot of research on Google and mixing up what he learned from different YouTube videos and online tutorials.

The device holds air, which helps in keeping the fish afloat

According to the 32-year-old, while goldfish with swim bladder disorder only live a couple of months, one of his fish has lived to be five months old thanks to this device.

Chairmen And Directors Of Some Government-Linked Bodies Are Paid Up To RM180,000 Per Month

Last week, it was reported that MAVCOM executive chairman General (Rtd) Tan Sri Abdullah Ahmad earns a whopping RM85,000 a month

The exorbitant amount was confirmed by Transport Minister Anthony Loke, who added that the Malaysian Aviation Commission (MAVCOM) chief's salary is more than four times that of the Prime Minister, who earns RM20,000 plus per month.

Turns out, that's not even the highest salary earned  by heads of statutory bodies and government-linked companies. Citing a source, The Sun reported that Abdullah is actually one of the lowest paid chairmen in such bodies.

The source revealed that some commission chairmen actually earn around RM150,000 to RM180,000 per month. As for Abdullah, his salary was only decided after studying the salary structure of other statutory bodies. The source said that his salary was "lower than others" because it was decided that the "supposed market rate" for other commission chairmen should not apply to MAVCOM as it does not have a chief executive.

The source also revealed that statutory bodies such as PEMANDU paid their directors, who were "nothing more than glorified managers", about RM100,000 a month

Image via The Sun Daily

The source told The Sun that some of those directors were previously earning below RM10,000 before moving to the Performance Management & Delivery Unit (PEMANDU), a unit under the previous government's Prime Minister's Department. "All salaries of those working at statutory bodies should be reviewed and they should be paid according to the job they do," the source said, adding that those heading such bodies should realise that they are serving the public and hence, should not expect high salaries.

Transport Minister Anthony Loke recently stressed that such high salaries will be reviewed after reports emerged about the MAVCOM chief's RM85,000 monthly salary:

What Led To The Disqualifications Of PKR's Tian Chua And Dr Streram?

The nomination for the 14th General Election (GE14) candidates that took place on Saturday, 28 April, ended with some unexpected and shocking drama that show two PKR candidates being disqualified

One being Tian Chua, vice president of PKR and two-term MP, who was barred from defending his Batu parliamentary seat in Kuala Lumpur.The other candidate being Dr Streram Sinnasamy, who was reportedly barred from entering the nomination centre to contest the Rantau parliamentary seat.Dr Streram, an anaesthetist at a private hospital, was contesting for the first time.While Tian Chua's disqualification puts the Barisan Nasional in the hot seat to win back the Batu parliamentary seat, Dr Streram's disqualification means caretaker Negeri Sembilan Menteri Besar Mohamad Hasan has won the Rantau state seat uncontested.

Image via NST Online (Edited)

What went wrong with Tian Chua's nomination?

In disqualifying Tian Chua, Returning Officer (RO) Anwar Mohd Zain said that the decision was made based on Article 48 of the Federal Constitution of 1948, which states that an elected representative is disqualified if he is sentenced to more than 12 months' jail or fined more than RM2,000, and has not received a pardon.The PKR's Batu MP was found guilty by the Petaling Jaya Sessions Court in March last year for using foul language against a police officer and was fined RM3,000. However, the Shah Alam High Court on 2 March 2018 had reduced the fine to RM2,000, effectively allowing the two-term Batu MP to contest in the 14th General Election.And as pointed out by Eric Paulsen on Twitter, when it was previously deemed by the High Court and Dewan Rakyat Speaker Pandikar that RM2,000 fine does not disqualify an MP/candidate, which makes one question the legality of the Returning Officer's decision to summarily reject Tian Chua's nomination papers on 28 April.Additionally, the decision by RO Anwar Mohd Zain comes off as contradictory considering the fact that Tian Chua, while facing a similar situation in 2013 when he was convicted and fined RM2,000, was allowed to contest in GE13.In the 2013 General Elections, Chua defended and won the Batu seat. The PKR vice-president, in fact, increased his majority in 2013 Polls from 9,455 to 13,284.

Tian Chua has now lodged a police report, stating that Election Commision RO Anwar Mohd Zain has violated a court ruling

According to a report in NST Online, the PKR vice-president has expressed anger and sadness over the RO's handling of the matter, calling him "biased".Chua claims that he had advised the RO to seek legal advice from the attorney-general before deciding to reject his nomination, but the RO reportedly refused."He said he did not have to seek anybody's advice and his power was absolute. He said he had the right to reject my nomination papers even though a court ruling clearly stated that I am qualified to be a candidate," Chua was quoted as saying.

So is there a chance for Chua?

Well, Election Commission chairman Mohd Hashim Abdullah, who said Chua can file a petition with the court to decide on his disqualification, was quoted saying by The Star Online that it is "premature to rule out that Tian Chua will be completely disqualified from contesting in GE14," adding that the EC "will abide by the court's ruling."The suggestion by EC chairman Abdullah that Chua cannot yet be ruled out completely has promoted the PKR vice-president to ask the EC to give a clear explanation.

Image via MalayMail via PKR

And what about Dr Streram Sinnasamy?

His disqualification — which allowed the Rantau state seat to remain with BN's Negeri Sembilan Menteri Besar Mohamad Hasan — after being barred from entering the nomination centre has created a lot of noise on social media with BN's Khairy Jamaluddin and PKR's Rafizi Ramli even having a heated exchange on Twitter.

Image via Khairy/Twitter

Reportedly, Dr Streram, his proposer and seconders were not carrying a candidate pass that is issued by the EC, due to which they were not allowed into the nomination centre. However, Dr Streram claims that such a pass had not even been issued to him.

According to a report in Malaysiakini, PKR's Dr Streram Sinnasamy has accused the police of stopping him from entering the nomination centre in Rembau."The police pushed me down. They said they would handcuff me. There were about 20 police officers, they were holding my chest," he said, according to Malaysiakini, which reported that when the 62-year-old anesthesiologist was trying to enter the nomination centre, police formed a line to prevent him from doing so.Inspector-general of police (IGP) Mohamad Fuzi Harun, on the other hand, claims his men did not prevent Dr Streram from entering into the nomination centre."The move to deny entry to the candidate was made by the returning officer."We were only there to ensure the security in the area. Our personnel were only called in to assist the returning officer. Maybe there was cause for the returning officer's actions. So we just carried out what was asked by the returning officer... So whatever allegations made against us are baseless and untrue," the IGP said, according to multiple reports.

Image via NST Online

Dr Streram, a first time candidate from PKR, says he didn't forget to bring his EC pass as he wasn't informed about the need for a pass

According to him, on Wednesday, 25 April, when he paid the election deposit of RM8,000 to the EC to be a PKR candidate for the state seat of Rantau and got the nomination forms he was not informed about the need for a pass.He claims that he only learnt about the requirement on 27 April, a day before nomination day, after a friend told him that he needs to collect the EC pass. Following which, he had rushed to the Rembau district office to get the pass, but the office had closed by then. However, an election official, who was present at the office, had told him that he could get the pass at the nomination centre on nomination day.

As advised, Dr Streram arrived early at the nomination centre to collect his EC pass, however, the 62-year-old was denied entry

According to Dr Streram, this is the timeline of the event that occurred on 28 April:He arrived at the Rembau district office, which is also the nomination centre, at 8am, but was refused entry as he did not have a pass. After an hour, at 9am, Streram tried to hand in his nomination forms through intermediaries but even they couldn't enter.It was 9.30am and police were still refusing to let Dr Streram enter, stating that they have not received instructions from the Election Commision. About 12 minutes later, at 9.42am, two election officials came and assured him that the issue will be resolved.However, the two election officials never came back and the nomination period officially ended at 10am, effectively disqualifying Dr Streram from contesting and making Barisan Nasional's caretaker Negeri Sembilan Menteri Besar Mohamad Hassan to be declared a winner by the virtue of being the sole candidate for the Rantau state seat.Reportedly, in a similar situation that was unfolding about 100km away at the Pandan nomination centre in Kuala Lumpur, where Parti Rakyat Malaysia's (PRM) Jenice Lee who did not have with her an EC pass but was allowed into the nomination centre.

The decision by EC has been criticised on social media as arbitrary, with political observers dubbing the two PKR candidates' shocking disqualifications as being "unprecedented in recent times"

The Straits Times' Malaysia Bureau Chief, Shannon Teoh, while commenting on the whole fiasco, said that it's "practically unheard of for the EC to ignore a court judgment, while there are no laws regarding entry pass requirements to become a candidate."

M'sian Model Claims PDRM Officer Sexually Harassed Her & Solicited A Bribe From Her BF

A Malaysian model has recently taken to social media to share her harrowing sexual harassment experience after being pulled over by a police officer

Posting on her Instagram Story yesterday 30 November, the model, known only as J, said the incident took place on a highway at 2am the night before.She was on the way home with her boyfriend and a group of women after a client meeting at the time.After avoiding a cat on the road, the police pulled them over and J's boyfriend was told to step out of the car."(The police officer) asked for his identification card (IC), and as usual, the letter and whatnot. And then he came to my window and asked for my IC as well," J related.She said the policeman asked her if she was an Indian, before proceeding to question why her name looks "different" and remarking that she does not look like an Indian. "He also kept flashing the flashlight right into my face and I knew he was looking at different parts of my body although I was fully covered," said the model.

The police officer then asked J why she was out at night, to which she replied that she was playing a role in a music video

"(He) asked me where I was from, and what I was doing in life, and so much more. A lot of personal details. And he didn't want to give me my IC back," she continued."He also told my boyfriend, 'Why are the girls sitting in the car like bosses, ask them to come out' and it was about 2am in the middle of a highway."The police officer went back to J after that and asked her to "prove it to him" that she is a "well-known" model. "He forced me to open my Instagram account and he took my phone and started scrolling," J recounted."He started asking me where were a few pictures on my phone taken and whatnot."

According to her, the police officer even tried flirting with her right in front of her boyfriend

Following that, the policeman still refused to let them go despite agreeing to pay the summons. At one point, the policeman tried soliciting a bribe from J's boyfriend."(My) boyfriend had to show him his bank account details to prove that his pay wasn't in," she said."But once he knew that I was the girlfriend, he didn't want to let us go because of me and he wanted to pry into personal details of my life, which was a violation of privacy.""I felt so sexually harassed even by the way he looked at me because I noticed he was looking right at my face and smirking, and also my chest." "He knew I was uncomfortable and he knew my boyfriend couldn't do much because all we wanted to do was just to get home after a long day of working."J said the policeman forced her boyfriend to show him footage of their work, specifying over and over again that he wanted to see pictures of her."It's bloody disgusting," J remarked.

The experience broke J to tears, especially since it happened during a time of grieving following the passing of a close family member

"I broke down in the car and I was shaking because I was so afraid," she shared."All I could do was silently pray [and] hope that he wouldn't touch me inappropriately, or do anything funny." They were allowed to leave after half an hour of interrogation, which J said was "pointless". The encounter had left her restless for the entire night."I fear for my safety, I fear for the safety of many women who are driving alone, especially at night. The police are supposed to protect and make the people feel secure," she said.

At the time of writing, her post has gone viral on Twitter with over 3,700 likes and 2,800 retweets

Many netizens also used the opportunity to share their similar experiences."I always get harassed at police roadblocks. They will ask if I'm married, why I'm pretty but still not married yet, do I have a boyfriend, and who do I live with," said a Twitter user."After that, he will ask his police gang to come look at me in the vehicle as if I'm an object."

Another person said she was also harassed by police officers in 2019. She said the officers had described her body as "small" and asked if she was really 20 years old.An officer even patted her shoulder and told her to "relax, don't be afraid".Meanwhile, a netizen added that it is not only the police who are guilty of sexually harassing citizens."Don't say the police. Even the army is lewd," she related."During the beginning of the Movement Control Order (MCO), my family was travelling back from Klang to Port Dickson in two cars and one motorcycle.""Two of my nieces were on the motorcycle, the one riding pillion is only 15 years old. She was wearing a pair of black rubber-waistband pants that looks like slacks and a sweater."She said they were stopped after riding past the soldiers on duty.

Here Are 5 Credit Cards That Are Known For Their Awesome Cashback Benefits

Credit cards can sound intimidating at first, but they are actually excellent financial tools if you use them responsibly

There are lots of advantages to using credit cards. As long as you don't overspend and rack up interest charges at the end of the month, you can receive big financial benefits.

Image via Forward Forty

These benefits include the convenience of not having to carry large amounts of cash around, or having to look for an ATM every time you need to make a purchase, as well as high ticket reward programmes such as getting frequent flier miles. But one of the best, most easily attainable, and instant perks of using a credit card is receiving cashback rewards.

What is a cashback reward anyway?

Cashback rewards return a percentage of the money you've spent with your credit card. It's as simple as that!For example, a credit card may offer 10% cashback on groceries when you use the card. So if you charge RM100 worth of groceries to the credit card, you'll receive RM10 back. You can't get perks like that when you shop with cash :)

Image via Giphy

With so many credit cards on the market, it can be difficult to figure out which one is the best fit for you

Here are the top credit cards on the market that offer the best cashback rewards:

1. For up to 15% cashback on autobilling, online shopping, and petrol - Standard Chartered JustOne Platinum

This Insurance Is The First To Cover Genomic Test For Cancer. Here's Why You Should Care

Did you know that early cancer detection and treatment can prevent an estimated one-third to one-half of cancer deaths in Malaysia?

Image via AmMetLife

Cancer remains a taboo topic in Malaysia. Nevertheless, the fact remains that cancer will affect 1 in 4 Malaysians by the time they reach 75 years old.

Here are some of the top cancers among Malaysians:

Image via AmMetLife

Sadly, a big proportion of cancer patients in Malaysia only consult doctors during late stages of their cancer. This means they are missing out on possible early treatment options that could increase their chances of survival.

There are many risk factors associated with cancer, including age, lifestyle choices, genetic predisposition, and family history

Image via rawpixel.com | Freepik

While having a family history of cancer doesn't mean you'll get cancer, 5% to 10% of cancers are strongly related to an inherited gene mutation. That's why it's important to be open to these conversations, especially if your family members have had cancer.Certain cancers become more prevalent as you grow older. Lifestyle choices like smoking and alcohol can also increase your risk of getting cancer. This is where early detection and prevention come in.

Most Malaysians tend to take a "healthy unless proven otherwise" approach, which is why they don't even consider health screening

Image via ProHealth

However, you don't need to feel unwell before going for a screening. Instead, screening actually helps doctors find and treat several types of cancer early on, even before there are symptoms. It also helps you assess your risk of developing cancer and steps you can take to lower the risk.A positive family history of cancer increases your risk of having cancer especially if:Your immediate family members have cancer.Multiple people on one side of your family have the same type of cancer.For women, you should also consult your doctor for regular pap smear tests and mammograms.

In the unfortunate case that cancer is detected, doctors will discuss with patients the possible treatment options, whether it's chemotherapy, radiation, surgery, or a combination

Image via TMTCD

After a patient is diagnosed with cancer, doctors may also suggest doing a genomic test to find the most suitable treatment

Image via Deakin University

What is genomic testing?According to Cancer Treatment Centres of America, genomic testing may help identify genetic mutations that may be driving the growth of a cancerous tumour. By taking a biopsy or blood sample, this test may give new insight and help doctors recommend suitable treatments for the specific type of cancer.Why is it important?When someone is diagnosed with cancer, doctors usually prescribe a series ofchemotherapy, radiation treatments, or even surgery. However, each person responds to treatment differently, and genomic testing allows doctors to personalise the treatment to suit each patient more efficiently.

To safeguard yourself against the financial burdens of dealing with cancer, AmMetLife has come up with the first insurance plan in Malaysia that covers genomic testing for cancer

Image via tirachardz | Freepik

As an insurance company, AmMetLife believes in offering their customers the best medical care to cope with life's unexpected events like cancer. Ultimately, genomic testing will allow customers to make more informed choices and find the most effective treatment for them.The HCC BoostUp Rider can only be attached to AmMetLife's HealthCare Choice Rider, and further enhances the plan with additional coverage. Besides genomic testing, HCC BoostUp Rider + HealthCare Choice Rider also covers an overall annual limit of RM1 million and above, outpatient dengue fever treatment, and more.

While cancer may be a life-changing event, you can do your part to detect it and treat it early on. You can also cover yourself financially so your loved ones will not have to worry.

Cockroach Dies In S'porean Woman's Ear & We Think We Died A Little Inside Too

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

Cockroaches are already a menace in our own homes, and even more so when they have the audacity to crawl near our bodies

According to an 8world article, a Singaporean woman was unlucky enough to experience just how unpleasant it is to have a pest crawl INTO one of her orifices and die in there.Documenting the experience on TikTok, she reported that she was sleeping in her bed when she felt a cockroach crawling near her ear, trying to get into it. She immediately began to smack at the cockroach in order to kill it.

Image via TikTok

To her horror,  the creature crawled further into her ear to seek refuge from her attempts to kill it

The TikToker explained in a follow-up video that the cockroach, which was estimated to be between 3.5cm and 4cm, was still alive and kicking when it crawled into her ear. This is when she took a capful of mouthwash and cupped it against her ear in order to drown the menace.Her unconventional method actually worked, but unfortunately, she now had to deal with a dead cockroach stuck deep in the crevice of her ear. Using tweezers, she tried to pull the body out. To her dismay, it broke into pieces and now she was unable to retrieve the rest of the cockroach."I reached into my ear, right? And I broke the cockroach in half. I broke it into pieces, so the white guts came out and, like, the skin," she explained while cringing in disgust.

Image via TikTok

She finally decided to visit the Accident and Emergency room to get some help with her predicament

There, the TikToker said the doctor used some medical tools to tweeze the body out with the help of a suction.After painfully pulling leg after leg out, the doctor finally managed to get every piece of the insect (or what was left of it) out of her ear. That included the head. Yes, feelers and all.She was then given antibacterial ear drops and was sent on her way home. Truly, a wild ride from start to finish.

Image via TikTok

Netizens in her comments were understandably disgusted and horrified

Some users commented that they were going to sleep with headphones or earphones from now on.

Image via TikTok

Another commenter even said that they wanted to put a plastic bag over their head before sleeping. (Okay, obviously don't do this, guys.)

Image via TikTok

A silver lining to this situation was that this incident was qualified to be claimed as accident insurance, so at least the cockroach didn't give her anymore headaches than it already did.

If cockroaches continue disrespecting us like this, we'll have no choice but to take drastic measures

According to New Straits Times, the tremors were felt at the city center at Kota Kinabalu and Sandakan and lasted for about 10 seconds. The 7.3-magnitude earthquake struck in the center of the Celebes Sea, between Philippines and Indonesia, and measured at a depth of 618 kilometers. The Pacific Tsuname Warning Center (PWTC) informed that there is no tsunami threat because the earthquake is located too deep inside the earth.

It was reported that tremors were also felt in Tanjung Aru and Kepayan. While in Sandakan, the staff at the federal building at Mile 7, Jalan Labuk were ordered to vacate the premises to ensure safety.

Skype has confirmed it is developing 3D video calls – but said it could be many years before we can use the technology. It revealed it is experimenting with 3D video calls on its 10th anniversary.

        theguardian.com

In an interview with the BBC, Mircrosoft's corporate vice-president for Skype, Mark Gillett, said: "We've done work in the labs looking at the capability of 3D-screens and 3D-capture.

        telegraph.co.uk

"We've seen a lot of progress in screens and a lot of people now buy TVs and computer monitors that are capable of delivering a 3D image. But the capture devices are not yet there."

        bbc.co.uk

Skype has the tech working in the lab, but needs the hardware ecosystem to be able to support it before it’s introduced. But he also said that 3D video chat would take longer to catch on with consumers than other 3D video tech in all likelihood.

James Cameron - the movie director behind Avatar - who recently told the BBC it was "inevitable" that all entertainment content would eventually be made in 3D once special glasses had stopped being needed "because that's how we see the world".

        bbc.co.uk

Skype runs on the PS Portable and Vita handheld consoles, but has not been announced for the PS4

In the meantime Mr Gillett said Skype was exploring how to offer 1080p "super-high definition" video call resolution to other devices apart from the forthcoming Xbox One video games console.

Since the standard would require extra processing power, he added that tablets and laptops were set to gain the facility ahead of smartphones.

"Ali Gatie Ke Ali Gatal?" - Sebab Backup Sharifah Rose, Penyanyi Kanada Ini Teruk Dikecam

Belum pun masuk bulan Februari, dah muncul isu 'buka tudung' oleh seorang influencer semasa bercuti di luar negara, baru-baru ini

Dipercayai, sebuah foto tular di media sosial menunjukkan influencer yang dikenali sebagai Sharifah Rose tidak memakai tudung semasa sedang bercuti bersama rakan-rakan di Phuket, Thailand.

Image via Twitter @sharifahrose

Susulan itu, warganet melahirkan rasa kecewa dengan insiden tersebut malah ada juga yang menegur perlakuan influencer itu.

Sementara itu, Sharifah Rose turut tampil memberikan penjelasan mengenai isu tersebut di laman twitter miliknya

Image via Twitter @sharifahrose

Bahasa:"Salam semua, saya merasakan bahawa saya perlu perlu memberikan penjelasan terutamanya kepada para pengikut saya dan mereka yang memandang tinggi pada saya. Pertama sekali, saya ingin memohon maaf kerana telah membuat anda semua kecewa. Jujur dari hati saya, saya minta maaf sangat-sangat. "Walaupun tiada alasan untuk apa yang saya dah buat, saya ingin menjelaskan beberapa perkara mengenai insiden itu. Ini adalah faktanya. Pertama sekali, saya ke Phuket bersama rakan rapat serta dengan pengetahuan dan izin ibu bapa saya. Saya tidak tipu atau sorokkan keberadaan saya daripada mereka. "Screenshot itu diambil daripada IG story rakan saya. Di situ, saya tidak memakai tudung. Saya ingin jelaskan yang saya ke pantai hari itu, ini adalah foto kami di pantai. Seperti yang anda dapat lihat saya memakai pakaian yang sesuai. Baju lengan panjang, seluar panjang dan topi untuk menutup rambut saya. "Topi saya basah jadi saya terus cabut untuk keringkannya buat seketika. Tanpa saya ketahui dalam tempoh 10 minit saya berbuat demikian, IG story itu diambil tanpa pengetahuan saya. Itu merupakan tempoh 10 minit paling bodoh dalam hidup saya dan ia buat saya sedar banyak benda boleh jadi dalam masa 10 minit itu. "Itu adalah satu kesilapan dan saya mendapat pengajaran yang besar daripadanya. Saya mengharapkan anda semua dapat memaafkan saya. Terima kasih kepada mereka yang mengambil masa menghantar DM, tanyakan keadaan saya. "Saya sangat bersyukur dengan sikap memahami dan sokongan anda semua. Saya berharap kita dapat teruskan kehidupan selepas ini," tulisnya.

Dia juga turut memohon agar orang ramai yang mempunyai fotonya tanpa hijab agar memadam gambar tersebut.

To those who have my picture without hijab, tweeted that picture or retweet it, I humbly ask you to delete it as I have learned my lesson.— sabrina (@sharifahrose) January 22, 2020

Bahasa:"Kepada mereka yang mempunyai foto tidak berhijab saya, saya dengan rasa rendah diri memohon agar anda memadam gambar tersebut kerana saya sudah mendapat pengajarannya," tulisnya.

Berikutan penjelasan itu, dia mendapat banyak komen positif daripada orang ramai termasuklah penyanyi antarabangsa, Ali Gatie

Penyanyi yang popular dengan lagu It's You memuji tindakan berani Sharifah Rose itu di laman Twitternya pada 22 Jan 2020.

We are all human ! I love you and support you ! Takes a mature person to have this reaction . We are all proud of you @sharifahrose https://t.co/TtUwC2FB0u— Ali Gatie (@aligatie) January 22, 2020

Bahasa: "Kita semua ada manusia! Saya sayang kamu dan menyokong kamu. Reaksi ini memerlukan seorang yang dewasa untuk melakukannya. Kami semua sangat bangga dengan anda!" tulisnya.

Bagaimanapun, ramai yang pelik dengan kemunculan Ali Gatie dalam isu Sharifah Rose ini

from Ali Gatie to Ali Gatal real quick https://t.co/DSKBDUI3Xi— alep cahmi (@heunoras) January 22, 2020

Bahasa:"Daripada Ali Gatie kepada Ali Gatal dengan sangat cepat," tulisnya.

ali gatie backing up sharifah rose's gossip is definitely the most random thing ive seen all day— baby (@izzahnl) January 22, 2020

Bahasa:"Ali Gatie bagi sokongan pada gosip Sharifah Rose adalah satu perkara paling rawak saya lihat sepanjang hari," tulisnya.

First of all, sharifah rose don’t owe any explanation to you guys. It’s her own body, she can do whatever she wants. Just mind your own sin ffs.Second of all, apo tiba2 ali gatie dok menyibuk pulak ni hahhahahaha dia kawan sharifah rose ke apa? — Petrova (@HuntNa04) January 22, 2020

Bahasa: "Pertama sekali, Sharifah Rose tidak perlu bagi penjelasan pada anda semua, badan dia, suka hati dialah nak buat apa. Cuma jaga dosa sendirilah. "Yang kedua, apo Ali Gatie dok menyibuk pulak ni? Dia kawan Sharifah Rose ke apa?" tulisnya.

Petaling Jaya OCPD Asst. Comm. Mohd Zani Che Din revealed that the incident was sparked by the raging emotions of a young man going through a divorce.
The culprit, a man in his 20s, apparently turned up at the parking lot where his ex-wife's car was parked at and in a fit of rage, threw a petrol bomb at her car, while she was standing right by it.

Malaysian Wins RM3.36 Million In 'Shark Tank' For Her Business That Helps You Sleep Better

Meet Amber Leong, an entrepreneur who designs and sells desktop light therapy lamps that mimic the colour and brightness of the sun to help regulate the body's sleep-wake cycle

She hails from Salak South, Kuala Lumpur and went to the United States after receiving her diploma from Tunku Abdul Rahman College.A few years ago, she decided to quit her corporate job and start a light therapy lamp business called Circadian Optics with her co-founder and husband, Chew Kin Mun.

Image via Amber Leong

Over the weekend, Leong became the first Malaysian to be featured on the hit American entrepreneurial reality TV series 'Shark Tank'

She was picked from thousands of applicants across America to compete against other entrepreneurs for investment from the show's panel of 'Sharks'.In an impressive development yesterday, 8 October, Leong went on to land a USD800,000 (RM3.36 million) deal with the ABC programme's two prominent investors, Mark Cuban and Lori Greiner, in exchange for a 20% stake in her company, according to Malay Mail.

Image via Circadian Optics/Facebook

She convinced the investors to help expand her company by explaining the benefits of light therapy

"Today, all of us slog away inside a dark office all day. We're not getting enough light, and this is disrupting our body clock and making us tired and unhealthy," she said in her business pitch to the judges on the show.

         View this post on Instagram            A post shared by Circadian Optics (@circadianoptics) on Oct 5, 2019 at 7:53am PDT

The conception of the product began with her own experience of long and dark winters while she was working in Minnesota, United States

"I was feeling tired and had trouble concentrating. The lack of light was getting me down," Leong told SAYS, when asked about what inspired her to start the company.She then read about the important effects of sunlight on the body clock and bought the best-selling model therapy lamp which was a huge, boxy device. After only a few days of using the lamp, she reported feeling more energetic and focused."It was amazing. Just  simple light could change the way I felt so much. But there was a problem," she continued."Because of how the lamp looked, my co-workers teased me endlessly about the contraption on my desk. I thought to myself, there has to be a way to make good-looking light therapy lamps. So I did!"

Image via Circadian Optics/Facebook

Since 2016, Leong and her husband have grown the company but have more plans to expand the business

"We have supported each other when times are tough and celebrated together when things are going well. I am extremely thankful that we are in this together," said Leong.Last year, she made USD4 million (RM16.8 million) in sales, according to Star Tribune. This year, she is projected to sell USD5.6 million (RM23.5 million).She plans to use the investment to incorporate advances in LED technology into her designs, increase production, and expand into brick-and-mortar retail locations.

While she has proven her business prowess, it was Leong's personal story that captured the hearts of the 'Shark Tank' business moguls, moving one of them to tears on the show

According to Leong, she grew up poor and without indoor plumbing in Salak South, Kuala Lumpur.At 19 years old, she was offered a scholarship to study at Bemidji State University that her parents were determined to see through, reported Pioneer Press.They cashed out their retirement savings, borrowed money from family and friends, and sent their daughter on a one-way ticket to Minnesota in 2003.Only nine months after she arrived, she was afflicted with toxic shock syndrome - a rare and potentially fatal complication of certain bacterial infections, she said as quoted by Inc. She was given a 50% chance of survival. However, Leong pulled through, went to graduate school, got a six-figure job, and sent money home to her family, she told the misty-eyed Sharks. When she built enough savings, she decided to choose "creativity over certainty" and launched her company.

One of the judges, Mark Cuban, told Leong that she represents the "American dream"

"You represent to everybody around the world who watches this show that it doesn't matter where you come from, if you put your mind to it, anything is possible," Cuban told her."You represent everything great about entrepreneurship and the American dream. You are freedom."

Leong has now patented five styles of the lamps that are only available online

The Circadian Optics light therapy product range comes in five different variants:-Lumine-Lumos-Lampu-Lattis-Luxy"My favourite is the Lampu, it always reminds me of the sun. We named it Lampu because we wanted to give one of our lamp models a Malay name," Leong told SAYS.The lamps are priced from anywhere between USD44.99 (RM189) to USD69.99 (RM294).

Image via TheNewsCrunch

While busy growing her business in the US, Leong has definitely not forgotten her home country

"Yes, we would consider expanding our business in Malaysia! I do think Malaysians can benefit from light therapy, especially those who work in dark offices," she said when asked if the lamps would help in our country of eternal summer.Finally, we asked her to give some advice to other aspiring entrepreneurs."You have to believe and you have to keep trying," she said, adding, "Nine in 10 startups fail, and the odds of your first, second, or third company failing is relatively high. But all you need is one success."
