He said the 54-year-old was being remanded at the Sepang police headquarters and forwarded papers for the man be investigated and charged to the Deputy Public Prosecutor (DPP). "He (the passenger) was seated in the first class and asked for the stewardess to serve him whiskey after the flight had taken off.  However, because the ‘fasten seatbelt sign’ was still turned on, his request was rejected. That was when he got mad and got into a scuffle with one of the stewardesses," said Supt Abdul Aziz. He added the businessman was travelling alone and he lives in Bali with his wife. Selangor deputy police chief Deputy Comm Datuk Abdul Rahim Jaafar said police were investigating the man under Section 70(1) of the Malaysia Civil Aviation Regulations 1996 for "imperilling the safety of an aircraft or any person on board".

According to police investigations, Ross had pressed the buzzer several times to notify the airline crew for drinks as he was thirsty. After about 30 minutes, the German national decided to go and get the drink himself and was told to sit down by a crew member. A scuffle ensued following an argument, leading several crew members of the airline to be kicked, with one suffering bruises. The scuffle led Ross to threaten the crew leading the airliner to return back to the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA).

The German national is said to have endangered MAS flight crew member, Phuah Soh Kin, 48, by raising his voice and using foul language. He was charged under Regulation 70 (1) Civil Aviation Rules 1969, which is punishable under Regulation 188 (7) of the same regulation. Under the regulation, a person can face a maximum fine of RM50,000 or a maximum two years jail. Deputy public prosecutor Uma Devi Balasubramaniam prosecuted while Ross was represented by counsel Zaflee Pakwanteh.

Flight MH179 took off from KLIA at 11.27 p.m. and was supposed to arrive in Colombo, Sri Lanka at 12.18 a.m. Sri Lankan time. However, it caused netizens to worry after flight trackers showed Flight MH179 flying in circles over the ocean west of Pulau Ketam since about 11.30 p.m.

Many panicking Malaysians took to Twitter to express their prayers for the flight causing #MH179 to trend, although the cause of it was unknown at that time

In truth, flight MH179 made a turn back and safely landed in KLIA following a commotion aboard the flight. The plane was flying in circles - known in aviation as a holding pattern - in order to burn fuel until it was light enough to make a safe landing.

Flight tracker website 'Flightradar24' in its Twitter at 1.30 this morning said the aircraft made a turnback after dumping fuel for two hours in the Melaka Strait to reduce the weight of the plane, before landing.

        malaysiandigest.com

It is typically used by aircraft to maintain its location while waiting for permission to land at a congested airport. It is also used by some aircraft to burn fuel until it is light enough to make a safe landing if its journey is cut short, including Boeing 737-800s such as the one used to fly the MH179 route.

        malaysiakini.com

MAS said that the pilot had to turn the flight around to make an early landing for the safety of passengers after a drunk passenger started harassing the crew soon after take-off. He was such a 'huge' disruption that passengers had to help the crew in restraining him.

On the night of 10 May, an intoxicated passenger forced Malaysia Airlines’ (MAS) flight MH179 to turn around, the national airline revealed.

        therakyatpost.com

MAS said in a statement that the drunk passenger started harassing the crew members soon after flight MH179 had taken off from KLIA at 11.27pm. “Due to his big body size, the other passengers had to assist the crew in restraining the passenger. To ensure safety and comfort of those on-board, the commander of the flight made a decision to turn back,” said the statement.

OLDTOWN Responds After Influencer's Post Criticising Their Kaya Butter Toast Goes Viral

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

Earlier this month, a social media influencer criticised the quality of OLDTOWN White Coffee's signature dish — their Kaya Butter Toast

The influencer, Ernie Chen, took to Facebook and Instagram with his complaint on 9 May.While the post barely gained any traction on Instagram, where it has only 62 likes and six comments, it has gone viral on Facebook, garnering over 4.5k likes, 4.7k shares, and close to 2,000 comments.Chen, who describes himself as "Asia's No 1 Business Coach", expressed his displeasure at the visibly thin butter slices served on his toast, and questioned the existence of the restaurant chain.While using multiple facepalm emojis to show his disapproval, Chen added that he will never go back to OLDTOWN as the brand now "sucks at what they once did so well in".In his post, Chen attached four photos. The first photo showed him — with an unamused look on his face — holding the toast with its slices apart, revealing two thin slices of butter.The second and third photos are close-up shots of the toast, and the fourth photo shows the brand's name.

In the same post where Chen exposed OLDTOWN's lack of butter in their famous Kaya Butter Toast, the influencer also promoted Oriental Kopitiam, a relatively new local restaurant

Oriental Kopitiam, or Oriental Kopi, opened in 2021.According to Chen, he is "very particular" about his kaya & butter toast and no one does it better than Oriental Kopitiam. He claimed where OLDTOWN fails, Oriental Kopitiam succeeds with its "real value" for customers.He then tagged an individual named Dato Calvin Chan, believed to be the owner of Oriental Kopitiam.

Chen has since uploaded another post on Facebook, where he further promoted Oriental Kopitiam and their kaya & butter toast, describing it as "heavy duty". The post shows him sitting together with the owner.In response to a query from SAYS, Chen told us he and Calvin Chan, the owner of Oriental Kopitiam, have no relationship, but are business acquaintances and that he was invited for lunch by the owner.

Notably, Chen tagged the owner of Oriental Kopitiam in his complaint post about OLDTOWN, but did not tag the brand

However, when OLDTOWN learned about Chen's viral post, they reached out to him to address his complaint. They assured him that they will be conducting a thorough investigation at the outlet in question.Prior to taking to Facebook on 9 May, when Chen was at the OLDTOWN outlet in The Mines Shopping Mall, he had complained about the lack of butter in his Kaya Butter Toast and asked for a replacement.He told SAYS that even the replacement did not meet his expectations, calling it "unacceptable".According to him, he explained to the staff that his first order of the toast was soggy and unacceptable to OLDTOWN standards, and that the replacement was no better than the first. Chen alleges that when he complained again, the staff no longer entertained his request.

Additionally, major local and Singaporean social news sites that covered the influencer's post did not reach out to OLDTOWN

When SAYS reached out to OLDTOWN, a spokesperson told this writer that Chen's replacement order should have met his satisfaction "but the customer did not provide any feedback on the replacement".The spokesperson added that Chen also did not inform OLDTOWN directly.When asked what steps OLDTOWN has taken to address customer satisfaction following the viral post, the spokesperson shared that they carried out an undercover survey of the said product at several outlets.According to the spokesperson, once alerted of the issue, OLDTOWN randomly sent out mystery shoppers to several outlets. However, they found no major inconsistencies in their Kaya Butter Toast.The spokesperson informed this writer that OLDTOWN's butter is hand cut, as per their standard operating procedure (SOPs) since they started in 2005, which means there may be small inconsistencies.OLDTOWN also stated that they have been using the SCS butter since 2005. SCS is Singapore's premium quality butter brand, which was founded in 1905, and is known for its rich and velvety taste."We also have re-trained the outlet in question and reminded the entire chain to be vigilant in observing their SOPs. This menu item is our number 1 selling product for the last 18 years," the spokesperson told SAYS while sharing photos taken by the mystery shoppers, showing the product in question.

OLDTOWN also informed SAYS that hand-cutting their butter requires skill and speed, especially in the current heat, hence the higher chances of variance

According to OLDTOWN, F&B is driven by people, and people sometimes make mistakes."We shouldn't assume that because some shops are disappointing that all shops are the same," the brand said, adding that they have been serving Malaysians since 2005 and the majority of their shops are owned by franchisees who are small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in their own right.

Permaisuri Agong Terkejut Sekolah Wajib Sampai Darjah 6 Je, Nak Lanjutkan Hingga Umur 17

Mesti ramai yang masih ingat zaman persekolahan masing-masing kan?

Gambar sekadar hiasan.
Image via Warta Daily

Sebenarnya, zaman persekolahan adalah zaman yang menyeronokkan sebab banyak benda yang kita akan belajar. Masa itulah kenal kawan-kawan seperjuangan, bergaduh bermasam muka dengan rakan, mula bercinta dan macam-macam lagi. Kalau mereka yang duduk di asrama pula tentu ada lagi banyak memori berbanding dengan mereka yang bersekolah harian. Tapi, pastinya setiap orang ada memori indah masing-masing. Dalam pada kita mempunyai banyak kenangan di zaman persekolahan, ada juga yang kurang bernasib baik apabila tidak dapat menghabiskan pengajian mereka hingga ke tingkatan 5 dengan bermacam-macam sebab.

Tahukah anda bahawa syarat wajib persekolahan hanyalah setakat darjah enam sahaja?

Raja Permaisuri Agong, Tunku Hajah Azizah Aminah Maimunah Iskandariah berkongsi di laman Twitter miliknya pada 4 Disember 2019 mengakui terkejut apabila mengetahui mengenai syarat wajib persekolahan tersebut.

i always thought education is compulsory till form 5 n was shocked to learn today that school is only compulsory till std 6. jadi sy ingin syor kan kpd kjaan msia supaya semua rakyat msia di wajibkan bersekolah sehingga tingkatan 5,to eradicate poverty n end child marriage— Tunku Azizah Mahmood Iskandar (@cheminahsayang) December 4, 2019

Bahasa: "Saya ingatkan persekolahan adalah wajib sehingga tingkatan lima dan sangat terkejut apabila mengetahui bahawa sekolah hanya wajib sehingga darjah enam. Jadi saya ingin syorkan kepada kerajaan Malaysia supaya semua rakyat Malaysia diwajibkan bersekolah sehingga tingkatan lima untuk membasmi kemiskinan dan juga menghapuskan perkahwinan bawah umur," tulisnya.

Pada 11 Disember 2019, baginda sekali lagi berkongsi di laman Twitternya mengenai misinya itu

i m still on my cause .... to make education compulsory for boys and girls till Form Five..... all Malaysians must complete 12 years of school ..... our investment for their future— Tunku Azizah Mahmood Iskandar (@cheminahsayang) December 11, 2019

Bahasa: "Saya masih lagi di dalam misi saya, untuk mewajibkan persekolahan kepada lelaki dan perempuan sehingga tingkatan lima. Semua warganegara Malaysia harus menamatkan 12 tahun persekolahan. Demi masa depan mereka," tulisnya.

[NEW UPDATE] Kes Hina Nabi Di FB: Jakim Akan Mengawasi Internet

Jakim bekerjasama dengan Kementerian komunikasi untuk memantau post yang menghina Islam

The Islamic Development Department is working closely with the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission, the Home Ministry and Radio Televisyen Malaysia to monitor social media, including blogs and Facebook, for postings that insult Islam.

        malaysiandigest.com

Minister in the Prime Minister's Department  Datuk Seri Jamil Khir Baharom said the team effort was to identify irresponsible parties out to disparage Islam and also disrupt the country's peace and harmony.

        nst.com.my

"I see this as some sort of a plan by irresponsible parties and it is the duty of the government, including religious officers, to counter them.

        malaysiandigest.com

"These parties are unhappy with the present situation where Muslims and non-Muslims live in harmony, so, they try to create tension so that things turn for the worse in this country," he said.

Kementerian Komunikasi dan Multimedia telah mengenal pasti identiti dua individu yang didakwa menghina Nabi Muhammad S.A.W melalui laman sosial Facebook dan menyerahkan kepada polis untuk tindakan lanjut.

Menterinya Datuk Seri Ahmad Shabery Cheek berkata kementerian itu memandang
serius kes penyalahgunaan Internet di negara ini, terutama membabitkan penyebaran fitnah dan hasutan yang boleh menimbulkan keresahan dan kemarahan rakyat.

        yahoo.com

“Saya ingin mengingatkan setiap pengguna Internet di negara ini bahawa mereka tidak akan terlepas dari undang-undang, walaupun perlakuan mereka di laman media sosial seperti Facebook, Twitter dan blog itu adalah atas dasar peribadi kerana ianya boleh mencetus provokasi di negara ini,” katanya.

Beliau kata kecanggihan teknologi membolehkan individu terbabit dikesan pihak berkuasa seperti kes-kes sebelum ini termasuk yang menghina Yang di-Pertuan Agong.

Ahmad Shabery Cheek kata kerajaan tidak akan menyekat akses media sosial buat masa ini

Ditanya kemungkinan Malaysia menyekat akses media sosial seperti Facebook, Ahmad Shabery berkata langkah itu tidak perlu buat masa ini kerana medium berkenaan juga mempunyai kebaikan yang dapat dimanfaatkan banyak pihak.

"Tetapi saya tidak menolak kemungkinan itu andainya terdapat penggunaan secara negatif yang keterlaluan hingga mendatangkan rasa resah, gelisah dan kemarahan di kalangan rakyat, mungkin ketika itu kerajaan perlu menerima pandangan dan desakan daripada pelbagai pihak untuk melakukannya," katanya.

The team unravelled the sheet and plastic to examine the package, only to find a wax doll in the shape of a woman

"We have classified the case as no offence disclosed, as we have found no criminal element in the case," Baharudin said.He also advised the public against speculating on the pictures depicting the discovery of a 'corpse' that have since gone viral on social media.

US, Dutch & German Commerce Groups Warn That MNCs Might Leave Malaysia If Bad SOPs Persist

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

Over the past week, five commerce groups from four countries have urged the Malaysian government to refine the standard operating procedures (SOPs) imposed on their multinational companies (MNCs)

According to The Malaysian Insight, the commerce groups sent three separate letters to federal and state governments.The first letter was addressed to Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin by the Japanese Chamber of Trade & Industry Malaysia (Jactim) and the Japan External Trade Organization (Jetro) on 6 July.The second letter was sent to Muhyiddin by the Malaysian-German Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MGCC) on 8 July, while the American Malaysian Chamber of Commerce (Amcham) and the Malaysian Dutch Business Council (MDBC) had on 10 July sent a joint letter to Johor Menteri Besar (MB) Datuk Hasni Mohammad.All of the five commerce groups raised concern about the worrying COVID-19 situation in the nation while suggesting the government practise a more targeted approach in implementing SOPs on manufacturing MNCs.

Image via Focus Malaysia

Among them, three countries said their companies based in Malaysia might relocate if poorly thought out SOPs persist

In their letter to Johor MB on 10 July, American and Dutch investors — Amcham and MDBC respectively — said a blanket lockdown that is not based on state data will lead to MNCs pulling out their investment in Malaysia."Malaysia, and Johor in particular, are crucial players in global supply chains for critical products," wrote Amcham chief executive officer Siobhan Das and MDBC executive director Marco Winter in a letter that SAYS sighted."The disruption that many companies have experienced in the last year resulted in loss of new business opportunities, revenue, and even contracts being reassigned — many of these losses cannot be recovered. Business opportunities are often lost to branch companies and competitors outside of Malaysia (China, India, Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand, etc).""Any further closures from the EMCO areas mentioned above will result in the HQ (headquarters) of these established companies to re-think current and future investments in Johor."As an example, they said HQ Pack Sdn Bhd is one of the world's leading companies in providing high-tech packaging. Their recent shutdown will deprive major medical electronic companies of packaging needed to transport medical equipment.They said shutting down HQ Pack for one day will lead to a month's worth of unfulfilled orders. Last July, the company announced a RM100 million investment to expand its operation in Johor, but the board of directors is currently considering pulling out if another lockdown is imposed on their company.Meanwhile, Samtec Asia Pacific (M) Sdn Bhd — a company that supplies connectors for medical devices such as CT and MRI scanners globally —  has moved its manufacturing capacity from Malaysia to Vietnam.

"We urge you to consider using data and adopt a targeted approach. Invest Johor, IRDA (Iskandar Regional Development Authority), MIDA (Malaysian Investment Development Authority), Matrade (Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation), and MITI (Ministry of International Trade and Industry) have worked too hard for the past 20 years, to only have it undone in this manner," they jointly said."We call on you to help stop the flight of investors that have trusted Johor with their investments. We urge you to be more precise and targeted in action, using data not as a sentiment but as a guide."

Additionally, German investors urged Muhyiddin to improve the current SOPs, which they described as "confusing" and "inconsistent enforcement"

MGCC said the ever-changing SOPs under the Movement Control Order (MCO) and the Enhanced MCO (EMCO) are confusing not only in terms of implementation but also enforcement, reported The Malaysian Reserve.They said even the police and MITI itself are confused by the rules."The EMCO is not yet reflected in MITI CIMS 3.0 system but manufacturing companies depend on MITI exemption letters to operate and allow their staff to safely come to work and return home," they wrote on 8 July"In one case, an essential classification (example: fragrances which are necessary for soaps and sanitizers) was revoked overnight without any notification or explanation. In other cases, PDRM insisted on MITI exemption letters although the companies do not fall under the purview of MITI."Even if some of the companies are allowed to operate, MGCC said the MNCs cannot stay open for long as their suppliers might not be operating. They said this might cause a collapse of the supply chain.In one of many examples MGCC brought up, they said Weidmuller (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd might have to relocate to Spain if the company cannot meet their clients' demand. MGCC said the company had complied with all SOPs in place and there were no reported COVID-19 cases in its facilities."Weidmuller hopes for a more targeted approach which does not punish the complete industry," they said, adding that the company was only set up in Malaysia last year.

As for the Japanese trade groups, their approach was more diplomatic with mentions of only their demands and no investment pull-out scares

"Out of the 1,500 Japanese companies in Malaysia, 40% or 650 companies are based in Selangor and they are severely affected by the Enhanced Movement Control Order (in most of Selangor and Kuala Lumpur)," Jactim president Daiji Kojima and Jetro managing director Mai Onozawa wrote in the letter dated 6 July.They raised many concerns similar to MGCC, saying the lockdown has caused a breakdown of the supply chain."As we have been emphasizing this since the beginning, the operation of the manufacturing industry could not be established unless its supply chain and manufacturing-related services are in operation as well," the letter read."ln fact, production could not commence if the raw materials required for production could not be supplied. Similarly, it is impossible to continuously store the manufactured products and parts in a warehouse without allowing sales and export activities to resume."They urged the government to allow all industries to operate at 10% workforce, just like in MCO 1.0 last year.They also urged the government to focus its vaccination programme in Selangor, which generates a quarter (24.2%) of Malaysia's gross domestic product (GDP). "Jactim through the Jactim Foundation would be contributing 50 specialized cooling boxes and 10 deep freezers as a gesture of goodwill to the Malaysian vaccination programs," they said.

You'd Think After They Fired Major Zaidi, He'd Give Up On Malaysia

Former RMAF Officer Major Zaidi Ahmad has been receiving massive support from the public ever since he was fired for lodging a police report over the ineffectiveness of the indelible ink

Image via themalaysianinsider.com

Mej Zaidi, 47, said he was glad that many people gave their support to him and his family following his sacking by a court martial on Monday for making a media statement on the ineffectiveness of the indelible ink in the 2013 general election and releasing information about his transfer letter. "Many people have called and texted their support and I'm very grateful for that," he said.

        thestar.com.my

During the 'Padah Kerana Benar, Bebas Kerana Salah' forum organised by Bersih, some questioned Major Zaidi for wearing his full uniform when lodging the police report. He replied that he did not think it was wrong as he is proud to serve the country.

Image via blogspot.com

During the forum, some questioned his motive for wearing his full uniform when he lodged the report as he had done it on his day off. “I am proud to be in the service and proud to serve the country so I wore my full uniform. I do not think what I did was wrong,” he said. “After lodging the report I was put in cold storage. I was not allowed to fly and I was transferred out from the Butterworth Air force base.”

Major Zaidi would not be appealing the court's decision as he would rather be serving the country freely than be in service yet have no freedom to speak

He said although many had questioned his move not to appeal the decision, he would rather be out and serving the country freely than continue in the service and be deprived of his right to speak freely.

        themalaysianinsider.com

His only disappointment is that he was not given a chance to defend himself during the trial, saying that there must be "something powerful" up there

According to him, presiding officer Colonel Saadon Hasnan, did not given him the chance to defend himself during his trial at court, which led to his sentence. “There must be “something powerful” up there. His (Saadon) remarks were crude. That’s what made me angry. He should have at least given me a chance to say my piece,” he said, as reported earlier by Free Malaysia Today.

The punishment may be tough, but Zaidi does not regret his actions. "I do not want to be part of lies. I am a Muslim and it is my responsibility to tell the truth," he said.

“They (the government) said the ink was indelible but later I found out it was washable. I do not want to be part of the lies. I am a Muslim and it is my responsibility to tell the truth. I have no regrets about telling the truth,” he said.

        themalaysianinsider.com

He took the position that he didn’t want to be a party to illegalities and didn’t want to be party to besmirching the honour, respect and dignity of the armed forces, the air force in particular, and his own faith as a Muslim. “I couldn’t lie and help cover up,” he had said previously. “I am forbidden by my faith and belief in God.”

Constitutional law expert Dr Abdul Aziz Bari has commended Major Zaidi as an inspiration for being so committed to the truth

The forum organised by the Coalition for Clean and Fair Elections (Bersih 2.0) featured constitutional expert professor Dr Abdul Aziz Bari and Bar Council vice-president Steven Thiru as well as coalition chairman Maria Chin Abdullah.

        themalaysianinsider.com

Constitutional law expert Dr Abdul Aziz Bari lauded Mej Zaidi for being strong and brave in going through the case. "Inspiring and difficult to find someone who is so committed to the truth," he said.

Bersih 2.0 chairperson Maria Chin Abdullah said we need more Major Zaidis in this country, people who are trying to break through the growing culture of fear, silence and suppression

Image via themalaymailonline.com

Bersih 2.0 chairperson Maria Chin Abdullah said Zaidi was brave enough to actually take a stand and never give up. “We lost a good hero in the army and the case is only one part of what is happening to society. “We are heading towards a culture of fear, silence and suppression of expression. “Major Zaidi is trying to break through it and that is what we need in Malaysia.”

        therakyatpost.com

"It is very sad that we lost a great army man. He went through great stress during trial but he stood his ground. We need more Malaysians like him."

        thestar.com.my

Malaysians, including the Penang government has rallied behind the 47-year-old father of two, some even going as far as offering him a job

He also has a standing job offer from the Penang Government but has yet to decide on the matter. He wants to first discuss it with his ex-colleagues, many of whom are still with him and are incensed at the injustice meted out to him by the authorities, his family, friends and relatives. He may want to a free man for the moment.

        freemalaysiatoday.com

Major Zaidi has politely declined the offers. He would like to work independently at a job that would give him time to serve the country in other ways.

"There were a few job offers but I would like to work independently. Maybe do a small business which will allow me the time to serve my country in a way I know how," he told The Malaysian Insider after the forum last night.

        themalaysianinsider.com

According to Free Malaysia Today, the former pilot has voiced his interest in joining Pakatan Rakyat. Whether he is asked to run as a candidate in GE14 or just help put up party flags, he is ready to follow the party's orders.

He will sign up soon with the Pakatan Rakyat (PR), the Opposition Alliance at the Federal level which is in power in Selangor, Penang and Kelantan. The thrust of his political struggle would be free and fair elections and that postal votes cast by military personnel not be dictated by any pressure on the part of the authorities.

        freemalaysiatoday.com

However, it would be up to the coalition to determine whether he should offer himself as a candidate come the 14th General Election in 2018. It would be up to the coalition’s component parties concerned, he elaborated.

        freemalaysiatoday.com

“If they tell me to just help put up party flags, I will do so. I am ready to follow party orders,” he said on the sidelines of a function at Mandarin Court Hotel, Kula Lumpur. “I am not looking for positions.”

        freemalaysiatoday.com

For now, he is planning to tour the country and perhaps go on a roadshow to explain the issue that has befallen him. He might also pick up direct selling as there are still bills to be paid.

Image via kualalumpurpost.net

“For the immediate moment, I will tour the country, even go on a roadshow if necessary, to explain the issue which brought to my discharge from military service,” he disclosed. “I also need to find time to do some direct selling to help pick up the bills and take care of my family.”

        freemalaysiatoday.com

To help Major Zaidi get back on his feet, Bersih has launched a donation drive. "We want to show that even if you lose your job for fighting for the truth, you will not be left hungry as Malaysian(s) are there to help."

Last night’s forum also saw Bersih launch a donation drive for Zaidi to help him get back on his feet. Donations may be made to the name of Persatuan Kesedaran Komuniti Selangor at Hong Leong bank account number 03000064902.Bersih hopes to collect RM50,000 from the donation drive which ends on February 15."We want to show that even if you lose your job for fighting for the truth, you will not be left hungry as Malaysian are there to help," said Bersih deputy chairman Sarajun Hoda Abdul Hassan.

        themalaysianinsider.com

Major Zaidi has lost his job, but he was won the hearts of Malaysians. He may not be in uniform anymore, but he will continue serving his country, in one way or another.

Here Are 12 Different Paths To Consider After SPM

1. A-Levels: If you like exams and want to keep your options open

Image via SAYS

A-Levels is a pre-university programme that is 100% exam-based. Following the UK education system, you get to take a minimum of three subjects out of the 60 available subjects. While generally viewed as a difficult course, A-Levels is recognised worldwide and will help you prepare for competitive degrees like medicine or law.

2. Canadian Pre-U: If you prefer coursework over exams

Image via SAYS

Unlike A-Levels, Canadian Pre-U (ICPU) and Matriculation (CIMP) has a 70% emphasis on coursework, which is good if you enjoy working on assignments.Not only accepted in Canada, you can also further your studies in the US, UK, Singapore, and other countries. Note that you'll have to complete a minimum of 10 hours of community service before graduating.

3. AUSMAT/HSC/SAM: If you plan on studying in Australia

Image via SAYS

One of the more popular study options in Malaysia is Australian matriculation programmes like Australian Matriculation (AUSMAT), New South Wales Higher School Certificate (HSC), and South Australian Certificate of Education (SACE), previously known as SAM.While they each have their own syllabus, they all comprise of 50% coursework and 50% exams. At the end of the course, you will earn a Australian Tertiary Admission (ATAR) rank, which will qualify you for universities in Australia, as well as around the world.

4. ADP: If you're looking to further your studies in the US

Image via SAYS

American Degree Programme (ADP) allows you to start your degree in Malaysia, and continue the last two years in the US. The unique thing about American degrees is that you spend two years taking general subjects like English, Psychology, and Philosophy, before you specialise in your field of study.This gives you a more holistic education, but some people may find it unnecessary having to go through so many general subjects.

5. Foundation: If you've set your sights on a particular university

Image via SAYS

Foundation courses are meant to help students progress from SPM to a degree programme. It also allows you to get a foot into your university of choice. Each foundation course consists of core and elective subjects, which prepares you for university while allowing you to explore different interests.

6. Diploma: If you want the option of working or getting a degree

Image via SAYS

If you prefer a more hands-on learning experience, you can go with a diploma course. After finishing your diploma, you can either go straight into the workplace or continue with a degree in the same field. The downside is that it's harder to get into top universities or demanding degree programmes like engineering with a diploma.

7. Local Matriculation: If you're keen on local universities

Image via SAYS

One of the most cost-effective study paths is going into local matriculation. Not only is the course subsidised (you only have to pay minimal fees), you are almost guaranteed a spot in local universities. However, it's not as easy to get into, and once you proceed to public university, you won't always get the degree programme of your choice.

8. STPM/Form 6: If you like the high school environment

Image via SAYS

Can't get enough of high school life? Continue to study in Form 6 and sit for Sijil Tinggi Persekolahan Malaysia (STPM), which is equivalent to A-Levels. The great thing about STPM is that it's recognised worldwide, which means you can further your studies wherever you want to. You can even resit for your exams multiple times until you get your desired results.

9. TVET: If you prefer hands-on, practical experience

Image via SAYS

Did you know that 98% of Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) graduates get a job, compared to 60% of university graduates?That's because TVET equips you with technical skills for the workplace, whether it's in auto body repair, fashion, or culinary arts. Another great thing is that polytechnics and community colleges are often subsidised, which means you only need to pay minimal fees.

10. ACCA: If you know you want to do accounting

Image via SAYS

If your mind is set on accounting, there are a few ways you can go about to get qualified for the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA).SPM > Diploma in Accounting > Degree in Accounting > Four ACCA papers > Three years experienceSPM > A-Levels/STPM > 13 ACCA papers > Three years experienceSPM > Certified Accounting Technician (CAT) > 10 ACCA papers > Three years experience

11. PISMP: If you would like to become a teacher in Malaysia

Image via SAYS

To become a teacher in Malaysia, you'll have to apply for the Program Ijazah Sarjana Muda Perguruan (PISMP) programme, usually open for registration in March.Next, you'll go through a one-year preparatory programme called PPISMP, before continuing on to pursue PISMP for four years. At the end of the programme, you'll receive a bachelor's degree and be qualified to teach in public schools in Malaysia.

12. Gap Year: If you want to take some time to recalibrate

Image via SAYS

If reading all of this has got you more confused, perhaps what you need is a gap year. Nevertheless, that doesn't mean just staying at home and being unproductive for a whole year.Go out to do an internship, learn a new skill or language, or volunteer at a non-profit organisation to get some real world experience. Make the most of your gap year by refocusing and deciding what you want to do next! :)

So, which of these courses are you most keen on taking?


MyBurgerLab Threw Some Pretty Epic Shade At People Who Hated On Their Nasi Lemak Burger

Nasi lemak burgers were all everyone could talk about after McDonald's Singapore unveiled its take on the well-loved dish a few weeks ago

Image via Instagram @pinkypiggu

To be fair, it looks really good and we're a little jelly we don't have the Nasi Lemak Burger in Malaysia. :p

Well, the wait is over, Malaysians! In conjunction with Hari Merdeka, myBurgerLab announced that they will be serving their version of the nasi lemak-inspired burger... complete with a gorgeous, runny telur mata kerbau. <3

Image via myBurgerLab Facebook

"Our Malaysian fans have spoken and we have been nominated (more like tagged to death) to make a 'proper' Nasi Lemak Burger (konon la)," the local burger joint wrote in a Facebook post.Called the Nasi Lemak Ayam Rendang burger, myBurgerLab's version features a juicy chicken thigh patty layered over peanut butter and pickled Japanese cucumbers, topped with rendang sauce (for a coconut-y flavour) and sambal as well as some ikan bilis and sunny side up egg. The burger will be making its debut this Friday, 4 August.

Little did they know that their tribute to the nasi lemak burger was about to spark some intense drama on social media, especially after myBurgerLab posted this cheeky tweet:

Image via Twitter @myBurgerLab

Shortly after the tweet was posted, a Singaporean news portal picked it up... and consequently triggered a flurry of heated comments from (mostly) Singaporeans

What does myBurgerLab have to say about this?
 True to their outspoken social media presence, the burger joint is taking all the criticism in stride and even took the time to reply to some of the vicious comments directed at them...

King Appoints 5 New EC Members Including Law Lecturer Azmi Sharom And Bersih 2.0 Activist

The Election Commission of Malaysia (EC) has five new members, as appointed by Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri'ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah

Among the five new EC members, one is Azmi Sharom, a law lecturer at Universiti Malaya, and the other is Zoe Randhawa, who is a resource officer at Bersih 2.0.The other three are former Foreign Ministry chief secretary Ramlan Ibrahim, former Human Resource Ministry director-general Chin Paik Yoong, and Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia senior fellow Faisal S Hazis, according to a report in Malaysiakini.

Image via Malaysiakini

Azmi Sharom will assist the EC chairman Azhar Harun, as his deputy. The decision to appoint Azmi, who is an outspoken academic, is a major signal of the Pakatan Harapan Government's commitment towards its pledged reform of the election system.

In 2014, Azmi was arrested and charged for making allegedly seditious remarks. However, his case was dropped by prosecutors in 2016.And with the appointment of Zoe Randhawa, the electoral watchdog, Bersih 2.0, that has long campaigned for free and fair elections in the country will finally be directly involved in reforming Malaysia's voting system, reported Malay Mail.Chief Secretary to Government Ismail Bakar said the new members' term would begin on the day they report for duty and will expire when they reach 66 years of age.

The new appointments have broken several conventions

According to Malaysiakini, the Election Commission members are usually chosen from amongst retired senior civil servants with one seat conventionally reserved for former top-ranking police personnel. However, the current line-up of EC members has none.

[NEW UPDATE] What CNN and International Media Say About #Black505

CNN's report on Kelana Jaya Black 505 rally which was allegedly censored by Astro

      Unsupported video platform

CNN says BN & PR manifestos actually do not contain anything policywise, just promises

Both manifestos actually do not contain anything policywise; there are just little giveaways, they promise you this, promise you that but there's not much policy difference between both of them."

        cnn.com

Anwar and Pakatan Rakyat are realistic enough to know that if they try to change the foundation of the state then the Malays won't vote for them. They will fine-tune the system so that the system reflects more on need rather than race.

If he (Najib) goes above 180 they will be demonstrating in the streets. The population will not accept that he has a majority.

The World Bank expects Malaysia's GDP to grow 5% this year, boosted by capital projects and domestic spending, as citizens make use of civil servant wage increases and government handouts.

Key issues include corruption, race-based policies that favour Malays and the economy

Most traditional media in Malaysia are linked to the governing parties so opposition parties rely almost exclusively on the internet to get their message out, says BBC's Jennifer Pak.

Bernie Lim said: "I grew up recognising that my parents voted for the present coalition at almost every general election. This time, they voted for the opposition. People do change."

Officially, just 18 foreign electoral observers are in Malaysia. They are joined by 1,200 local observers from 17 non-governmental organisations.

The electoral commission said on Saturday that the foreign observers comprised six each from Indonesia and Thailand, and two each from Burma, Cambodia and the Asean secretariat.

The Economist says Pakatan as it could not crack open Barisan 'fixed desposit' seats

Plenty to worry Barisan strategists in this result. For a start, it looks as if they have won on a minority of the popular vote: 49% to the opposition Pakatan Rakyat’s 51%,

        economist.com

Malaysia is more divided along ethnic lines, at least in political terms. The ethnic-Chinese party from the ruling coalition saw its vote collapse, that some question whether it can actually survive.

        economist.com

Barisan certainly spent an enormous amount of money on the campaign. Its “supporters” were doling out free food, drink, straight cash and even raffling cars to tempt voters their way in tight races.
