Rakyat India Lancar #BoycottMalaysia Ekoran Naik Angin Tun M Kata Kashmir Diceroboh India

Buat pengguna tegar laman Twitter, pasti perasan yang #BoycottMalaysia muncul antara topik trending terkini di laman itu

Buat yang tidak tahu menahu tentang isu ini, hal ini berikutan kenyataan yang disampaikan Perdana Menteri Malaysia, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad, pada Perhimpunan Agung Pertubuhan Bangsa-Bangsa Bersatu (UNGA) ke-74 baru-baru ini.

Mengulas mengenai krisis Rohingya di Rakhine dan Palestin di Gaza yang sudah kian lama berlanjutan, Tun Mahathir kemudian menyatakan bahawa wilayah Jammu dan Kashmir juga telah ‘diceroboh dan diduduki’.

"Jammu & Kashmir has been invaded & occupied by India," says Malaysian PM Mahathir Mohamad at #UNGA. #ImranKhanVoiceOfKashmir pic.twitter.com/4RgYhD2TOG— Pak Army (@pak__fauj) September 28, 2019

Dalam kenyataannya, beliau menggesa India dan Pakistan untuk bekerjasama dalam menyelesaikan masalah di antara mereka dengan cara damai. Beliau menganggap kegagalan menyelesaikan masalah secara aman akan mengabaikan tujuan PBB dan undang-undang yang termaktub.

There may be reasons for this action but it is still wrong. The problem must be solved by peaceful means. India should work with Pakistan to resolve this problem. Ignoring the UN would lead to other forms of disregard for the UN and the Rule of Law. pic.twitter.com/QOQtIkPTC1— Dr Mahathir Mohamad (@chedetofficial) September 28, 2019

"Walaupun sudah ada resolusi PBB meminta kedua negara untuk mengambil tindakan, namun krisis Jammu dan Kashmir terus berlanjutan," kata Tun Mahathir dalam akaun Twitternya, @chedetofficial.

Meskipun begitu, kenyataan tersebut telah mencetuskan kemarahan netizen negara India

Netizen India kemudiannya melancarkan tanda pagar #BoycottMalaysia kerana beranggapan seolah-olah kenyataan Tun Mahathir menyokong Pakistan.Menerusi tanda pagar itu, mereka menyeru rakyat India untuk memutuskan hubungan perdagangan serta tidak lagi melancong ke Malaysia, sebaliknya pergi ke negara Asia Tenggara yang lain.

Shameless @chedetofficial finally shown your true colors. I urge each and every Patriot Indian to #BoycottMalaysia .The Shameless PM of this country is openly supporting Pakistan.Going to boycott @AirAsia Boycott Each and every thing related to #Malaysia #BoycottMalaysia— रुपेश  (@Rajpoot_Roopesh) September 29, 2019

Simply #BoycottMalaysia. If it isn’t urgent, don’t travel there. Avoid trade. With this bigoted and uninformed man heading it, it is a hostile State. https://t.co/W6ikikobDT— Abhijit Majumder (@abhijitmajumder) September 29, 2019

#BoycottMalaysia I am belonging from the travel community, we will give other options to our clients instead of #Malaysia . More than 200 companies are meeting this week to take decisions on Malaysia. #BoycottMalaysia https://t.co/bilFGKHsnI— jaimik thakkar (@Jaimik2908) October 1, 2019

Perkara ini sudah tentu mendapat perhatian rakyat kita sendiri yang mana rata-rata netizen Malaysia menyuarakan pendapat dan bersetuju dengan kenyataan Tun Mahathir.

Tun M of  & President Erdogan of  or strong fighters of the law & people. Boycott as you may, but dont jeopardise innocent citizens of both countries. The law is meant to be followed. Malaysians literally dont care #BoycottMalaysia because you'll suffer at the end of the day— Risi. S (@webarebears00) September 30, 2019

Wow #BoycottMalaysia trending! Hahaha. Impact ucapan Tun M dekat UN. Padahal atuk tu mintak India dan Pakistan duduk semeja je, nego pasal Kashmir dan Jammu. Tiba tiba satu India panas bontot.— Shafwan Shukor (@shafwanshukor) September 30, 2019

Rakyat Negara India sedang promote #BoycottMalaysia dan #BoycottTurkey dalam respon mereka terhadap ucapan Tun Mahathir dan Erdogen di UNGA 2019 yang dilihat Pro Pakistan. Mereka begitu terancam nampaknya kerjasama erat Turkey-Malaysia-Pakistan. Welldone Tun M.— Mohamad Faizal Haramaini (@faizalharamaini) October 1, 2019

Kashmir merupakan sebuah wilayah kecil terletak di barat laut benua kecil India

Ia merujuk kepada lembah yang terletak di antara Banjaran Himalaya dan Banjaran Pir Panjal di kawasan paling utara negara India.

Image via BBC Indonesia

Pada masa ini, secara geopolitiknya, Kashmir terbahagi kepada beberapa bahagian iaitu Jammu dan Kashmir yang ditadbir oleh India, meliputi lembah Kashmir serta Jammu dan Ladakh. Kawasan-kawasan Utara dan Azad Kashmir pula ditadbir oleh Pakistan, dan Rantau Aksai Chin dan Laluan Trans-Karakoram yang ditadbir oleh China.

Walaupun kawasan-kawasan tersebut dikuasai oleh ketiga-tiga negara terbabit, tetapi India mahupun Pakistan tidak pernah mengiktiraf pemilikan antara satu sama lain ke atas kawasan-kawasan yang menjadi pertikaian.

The programme, which started on 18 October, involves an allocation of RM6.6 million.

A 47-Year-Old Malaysian Woman Is Singapore's First Locally Transmitted Zika Virus Victim

In the first locally transmitted case, a 47-year-old Malaysian woman, who lives in Singapore's Aljunied Crescent, has tested positive for the Zika virus. She has no travel history to Zika-affected countries.

According to The Straits Times, "three other people may be down with the virus. Two live near the woman's workplace, with one working nearby. Their preliminary tests were positive, but the authorities are waiting for final confirmation."It reported the Ministry of Health (MOH) and National Environment Agency (NEA), which in a joint press statement had said that the Malaysian woman was likely to have been infected in Singapore itself, saying the patient, who had developed symptoms such as fever, rash, and conjunctivitis earlier on Thursday, saw a doctor on Friday.Following which, she was sent to the Communicable Diseases Centre (CDC) at Tan Tock Seng Hospital where on Saturday, she tested positive for the Zika virus.

Following which, NEA has stepped up misting and fogging in the Aljunied area to kill adult mosquitoes, and the MOH has alerted all general practitioners (GP) in the area to be extra vigilant in quickly reporting patients suspected to have the Zika virus to the ministry

When Channel NewsAsia visited Aljunied Crescent on Saturday evening, NEA flyers were seen on lift landings, informing residents of the symptoms and dangers of the Zika virus. There were also flyers stating that fogging would be carried out on Sunday, due to dengue cases in the area.

The Malaysian, meanwhile, has been hospitalised for observation at the CDC and is currently well and recovering, it was reported

The unnamed woman lives at Block 102, Aljunied Crescent, and works in the vicinity.Many residents there, however, had no clue that their estate was home to Singapore's first locally transmitted case of Zika virus, reported The New Paper.Although, The New Paper quoted one Ms. Mastika, who is five months pregnant, as being visibly stunned when told about the news."Here? In our block? That is scary. It's something I've always been fearful of," she said.Zika virus infection can cause microcephaly in the unborn foetuses of pregnant women.

The National Environment Agency has since taken steps to monitor the situation at Aljunied Crescent and prepare residents for battle, reported The Straits Times, putting up posters up at the lift landings of Block 102 and providing background information on the virus

Tin Pei Ling, MP for MacPherson, who is in touch with the Ministry of Health for regular updates, wrote on Facebook that while Block 102 is not an active dengue cluster, NEA will be thermal fogging the area as a precautionary measure.The Straits Times quoted her saying, "I urge pregnant ladies to monitor your health especially carefully, as Zika can affect the development of an unborn child. As a mother, I am deeply concerned about this and had in fact raised this issue in Parliament."

"They All Lost Their Jobs" - Photos Of Empty KLIA Show Devastating Effects Of Pandemic

We know that the aviation industry is suffering millions in losses every day, but seeing actual photos of an empty international airport really makes the proverbial saying 'a picture is worth a thousand words' real

Photos of an empty Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) are going viral on Twitter, drawing sympathy from thousands of netizens.One photo shows an array of airplanes parked idly in the airport without a single one taxiing about, while another shows a car park without a single shadow.A chocolate store that used to be a place bustling with people shopping for last-minute souvenirs is now completely bare and what seems to be the drop-off area is only wandered by tumbleweed.

Image via @sitiraudzah (Twitter)

Writing in the thread, @sitiraudzah wonders how the employees who used to work at the airport are doing now

"Airplanes at KLIA are now put to rest," Siti wrote. "Thousands of workers were also laid off. Engineers, technical workers, flight attendants, janitors, and more, they all lost their jobs.""For employees who have lost their source of income, what do they have to save?"

"Where are all of you, young ones? Usually, at this time, I notice that all of you will be busy checking the plane," Siti wrote in the caption of a photo showing an airport apron

"Petronas Dagangan employees should be busy with refuelling, Brahim Catering employees should be busy with loading food. Malaysia Airlines Berhad employees should be busy with sending bags to the belly of the plane.""Do you have (the money to buy your children) milk, young ones? Are your parents doing okay in kampung? Are you all okay?" Siti concludes the brief Twitter thread by wishing the affected employees to have the strength to pull through this difficult period.

At the time of writing, the tweet has garnered almost 8,000 retweets and 7,000 likes

In the replies section, some netizens also uploaded photos and videos showing the empty airport, saying that it is sad to see a place that used to have tens of thousands of footfall every day is now seen without a soul.

Meanwhile, an employee who works for an airline said the aviation industry is barely scraping by and advised members of the public to follow the standard operating procedures (SOPs) while at the airport.

If possible get your kids the face shield as well! Also try to wear gloves & if you are not feeling well tell the crew on board. Don’t be selfish , we won’t kill you if you confess. Also if you are req to quarantine yourself, do it! I did it for 4x tak mati pun!— al (@allyciatann_) September 29, 2020

Is it possible to lose belly fat with pills?

According to Rush University Medical Center specialist, Kazlauskaite, "When ad claims a 'one trick' solution, you should remember that their main objective is to sell their product rather than to help you."

        rush.edu

"Typically, there are many things you may need to improve to lose belly fat. I would say start by focusing on changing or improving 1 thing. Then, once you conquer that 1st objective, you can move on to the next thing, & so on."

        rush.edu

Rush specialist Dugan, "Moderate-intensity physical activity, I'd say, is the 'magic pill' because the health benefits go beyond keeping your waistline trim: Not only can it reduce your risk of cancer, stroke, diabetes & heart attacks, but physical activity can improve the moods of patients."

What Are Some Of The Most Unhealthy Things About A Typical Malaysian Breakfast?

1. Nasi lemak. Our national dish is definitely yummylicious but did you know that a standard packet of nasi lemak consists mostly of carbs and fat?

Calories: 585Fat: 22gCarbs: 82gProtein: 16gVitamin C: 0%There are 145 calories in 100 grams of Nasi Lemak.Calorie breakdown: 32% fat, 57% carbs, 11% protein.

        sparkpeople.com

2. Toasted bread. Normally paired with half-boiled eggs, the breakfast is considered quite healthy thanks to the proteins from the eggs. But on its own, the bread does not provide any form of vitamins.

3. Noodles. The wan tan mee and mee kolok is carb-rich and although it contains some potassium, it is offset by the high sodium levels in each serving.

4.  Roti canai. Light, fluffy, and crispy, this Malaysian dish goes well together with a cup of teh tarik but nutrition wise, it's nothing but empty calories and fat.

5. Cereal with milk. Although this dish is not entirely local, having cereal is a popular breakfast choice amongst Malaysian school children. Be sure to choose the type of cereal carefully, as some of them are known to be sugar heavy.

But you don't have to stop eating all this Malaysian goodness because it's unhealthy, here are some easy tweaks to make your breakfasts healthier and more nutritious for you

1. Increase your Vitamin C intake by incorporating Vitamin C rich foods such as the kiwifruit into your breakfasts

Image via bakingmadgymaddict

Human bodies are not able to produce Vitamin C, therefore we have to absorb them through our daily diet. For Malaysians, the daily requirement for Vitamin C is 60mg per adult. Taking just one Sungold kiwifruit gives you 161.3mg of Vitamin C, which is more than your daily Vitamin C requirement. Vitamin C helps to activate enzymes in the body that play an important role in the regulation of metabolic energy. Vitamin C also assists the body’s update of iron, an essential mineral for the transportation of oxygen in the blood and the metabolism of blood sugar that gives energy.You can consume the kiwifruit as a shake, a juice, or as your mini dessert after breakfast to give you the Vitamin C boost at the start of a day.

2. Control the portion of your meal by reducing the size of your plate

Image via ontheroadtofit

Here’s a simple fix that’ll help you and your brain feel fuller and more satisfied after each meal.  Serve your meals on smaller plates! It’s a really simple trick that will help you serve yourself less (don’t go back for seconds) and still give your brain the satisfaction of finishing everything in front of you.

        ontheroadtofit.com

Pro tip: You can also eat a fruit before your meal to partially fill your tummy.

3. Always "kurang manis" your drinks

Image via savemoney

According to a 2005 survey, Malaysians consume an average of 26 teaspoons of sugar daily – more than three times the recommended amount and about 10 teaspoons more than they did in the 1970s. Experts believe this has contributed to the country’s rising obesity rate. About 30 per cent of all Malaysians are now  overweight. The number of diabetics is also  growing rapidly. There were 800,000 in 2007.

        healthxchange.com.sg

Pro tip: If you still crave for something sweet, opt for fresh juices, shakes, and smoothies instead of drinks that are high in artificial sugar.


[VIDEO] Prankster Dad Fakes Killing His Son For Fun

Meet Roman Atwood. He is known for his pranks on YouTube. Recently, wanting to freak his girlfriend, Roman pulled off one of the most terrifying prank one could play on their significant half.

In playing out the prank, Roman dressed his youngest in a Spider-Man costume and acted as if they were play-fighting. This was to set his girlfriend Brittney, who is the mother of his kids, up so she could see they were playing and roughhousing a little.

Watch How A Dog In Terengganu Showed His Unfailing Loyalty For Its Deceased Owner

When it comes to love and loyalty, we humans have often shown the tendency to disappoint in the face of a crisis. However, the same is not true for animals, who have always shown what loyalty means.

Recently, a Facebook post by a person named Leong Khai Wai went viral.It contained photos and videos of a pet dog from Kampong Air Jernih, Terengganu, following his deceased owner's funeral procession for close to 3km.The dog walked behind the motor convoy just so he could be with his deceased owner for the last time while his body is laid to rest. Talk about love and loyalty!

Image via Leong Khai Wai via Facebook

And that's not it. When the funeral procession reached the burial ground, the loyal dog sat down near the grave, refusing to leave.

Image via Leong Khai Wai via Facebook

Image via Leong Khai Wai via Facebook

We don't know what happened to the dog afterwards — whether he left the burial ground, did the deceased owner's family bring him back with them — but one of the photos show him being comforted by a woman and a kid, possibly related to the deceased owner

Feast On Luscious Mentaiko Eggs Benedict And Warm Waffles At This Snazzy Mont Kiara Cafe

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

Tucked away from the busy streets of Jalan Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah comes a contemporary café on the ground floor in Arte Mont Kiara

Having opened their doors last December, ALLO by The Owls Cafe has already garnered major attention for their distinctive and urban eatery in Mont Kiara. Drenched in light-coloured tones from head to toe, ALLO's pastel pink entrance radiates an inviting and enchanting presence to explore what may be hidden behind these pristine doors.

Image via ALLO by The Owls Cafe (Provided to SAYS)

Entering the spacious locale, the sophisticated and chic design concept seamlessly flows in every aspect of the eatery. From velvet seating to marble tables, the open-concept of this restaurant enhances the cosy ambience for guests to feel right at home.Another dashing attraction is the art pieces hung up on the walls, giving a comforting feel, that while the surroundings are aesthetically pleasing, you could kick back and chat the afternoon away.

The large cascading bay windows allow for an immense protrusion of natural light to illuminate the stellar interior qualities of the eatery. Grab a spot by the window and watch the calming movement of traffic outside. If you'd prefer some fresh air, grab a table at the al fresco seating area outside.One of the most aesthetically-pleasing spots however, would be the upstairs dining section that spaciously fits up to 18 pax. Looking for your next OOTD spot instead? Pose at their floral mural, or under the elegantly placed chandeliers.

We recently paid a visit to ALLO, and had a chance to see if their food items matched the quality and eclectic nature of the visual cafe appeal

Beginning with their snack platters, both of the items we tried are set to premiere on ALLO's menu from tomorrow, 13 July.The first item was the Prawn & Cheese Croquettes with chimichurri aioli sauce. Typically known as Japanese comfort food, the croquettes were warm and pleasant when we cut into the slices. Balanced in flavour, each piece has a delicate exterior crunch that was met with an equally mesmerising cheesy texture. Overall, this order would be a great treat for those seeking a heavier snack option.We then proceeded to try the Mussels Escabeche that was served with a side of sourdough and dill cream. This cold salad was refreshing and enriching, kicking off our tasting session with a bang. While we'd be the first to admit that this piece would suit those with an acquired taste, there's no arguing against the compliment of the chilled muscles atop the warm sourdough that heightens a vinegary sensation to the taste buds.

Image via SAYS

Moving on to their Breakfast menu, we began our meal with the Croque Monsieur, that was essentially a sourdough sandwich. Just by sinking our knives into a slice, we were met with a subtle crunch that oozed melted mozzarella. Pairing lovely with the chicken ham layers for a gooey goodness of sorts, the béchamel sauce pulled the entire dish together, adding a buttery texture to the sandwich that elevated it from a common ham sandwich, to a fluffy and appetising breakfast meal.A true winner in our eyes would have to be the Salmon Mentaiko Egg Benedict. A spin on the classic English dish familiar to many, the minor substitutions with Japanese mentaiko hollandaise sauce and smoked salmon as supposed to sliced ham, definitely claimed dish of the day. One slender cut into the poached egg had it spilling out and generously coating the smoked ham and English muffin. Ultimately, this ALLO creation will have us placing an order for this piece again, and again, and again!

Image via SAYS

Here's a mouth-watering video of the Salmon Mentaiko Egg Benedict:

The final breakfast item was the Blue Butterly Pea Nasi Lemak. Visually captivating, the heady aroma of sambar and anchovies was met with a bountifully-sized slide of chicken rendang. Unfathomably impressed, just a mouthful of the rice, sambar, and chicken, transports one to the roadside stall with authentic and enriching Malay flavours that are only comparable to the classic chicken rendang dishes. With the spicy kick provided by the sambar element, this dish was a near claim to best dish.Progressing to their pastas, we endeavoured to the Salmon Curry Pasta. Served with dollops of pan seared salmon, this creamy creation was definitely on the sweeter side as opposed to spicy. Nonetheless, the additions of tomatoes and spinach added a tangy balance to the sauce, that enthralled us into the freshness of the herbs within its composition.

Image via ALLO by The Owls Cafe (Provided to SAYS)

We also tried some of the soon-to-be-released dinner menu items.
Just as described for the snack platters, these next two items will be available at ALLO by tomorrow evening, 13 July.

Al dente to the feel, the Prawn & Mushroom Risotto was accompanied by giant-sized shrimps and splatters of parmesan cheese. The risotto itself was pipping hot when it landed on our table, and held its shape throughout our tasting. The signature sauce itself radiated through the bowl, adding to the savoury delectability in the elements of seafood.The last savoury dish on the menu was the Pan-Grilled Salmon served on a blanket of pumpkin puree with a side salad. A crisp exterior, our piece had a flawless white colouring when we cut into it. Seasoned aptly, a pleasant surprise was in the buttery honey-mustard sauce coated over the salad of kale, charred onion, and shaved apple. One of the more invigorating items on the menu at ALLO, this dish would unquestionably turn any diner into a grilled salmon lover.

Image via ALLO by The Owls Cafe (Provided to SAYS)

Maintaining a long line of waffles as part of their dessert menu, we couldn't help but get our hands on two of their best-sellers

Indulging in their Rebecca Waffles, the dynamic layout of the waffles topped with strawberries, blueberries, bananas, and honey, was met with an interesting surprise in their own earl grey ice cream. Stealing the spotlight almost immediately, this usual combination is a practical 'no-brainer' for many. Yet, we were absolutely enchanted by the distinctive earl grey ice cream that was nothing short of silky and smooth.It's hard to believe in another irresistible combination, but the David Waffles was just as impressive as their Rebecca counterpart. Richer than the last, this waffle combo consisted of brûlée bananas, peanut butter cream, vanilla ice cream, hazelnut praline, and pretzels. Drizzled entirely in chocolate sauce, the multi-dimensional flavours within this visually enticing plate would make any person (child or adult) bounce with glee for an order.Bold enough to suggest, we'd hardly blame anyone who would come all the way to Mont Kiara just for either one (or even both) of these dessert waffles!

(Left) Rebecca Waffles and (Right) David Waffles.

Last but certainly not least, we had a go at ALLO's signature Strawberry Lemonade that was a sweet and fizzy beverage for a laidback lunch. We also tried their Ajisai Matcha that had a strong umami smack ingrained in the natural sweet nuttiness of the herbs. All in all, the touch of bitter extracts added for a grassy and flavoursome gulp for a hot day.

Image via SAYS

Need some convincing? Here's a glimpse of a stir with the Ajisai Matcha:

Stuffed to the brim, our tasting session at ALLO was truly one of the most enjoyable yet

Besides knocking it out of the park when it came to their flavours, we were thoroughly impressed by how generous and delicious their waffle desserts were too.Though we did not get to try everything on the menu at ALLO, the establishment even has an array of soups and local delicacies to choose from, which include (but are not limited to) Buttermilk Soft Shell Crab Nasi Lemak, and basil chicken. As for parents looking for a new outlet to spend a day with their kids at, ALLO also has a kids' menu that includes scrambled eggs and mini waffles too.Surging in popularity since their opening, ALLO is definitely a café worthy of adding to your list the next time you're seeking out the latest brunch spot in town.

[PHOTOS] The Passengers And Crew Of MH17: Gone But Not Forgotten

There were 298 people onboard MAS flight MH17.  There were 154 Dutch citizens, 43 Malaysians, 27 Australians, 12 Indonesians, 9 British, 4 Germans, 4 Belgians, 3 Filipinos and 1 Canadian. The rest have yet to be determined.

A total of 298 passengers were onboard the plane.

The pilot of MH17, Captain Wan Amran Wan Hussin, 50, had been flying aircraft for more than 20 years. The father of two wanted to perform the Haj later this year.

"He expressed his intention to his elder sister Wan Aini, when he returned to his village in Kota Lama Kiri, Kuala Kangsar, Perak to break fast with relatives last week," said Wan Amran's nephew, Amaluddin Noorshah, 48.

        freemalaysiatoday.com

"I felt a difference in the tone of his voice when he said that. I learnt from a family WhatsApp network about what happened. All of us felt a weakness spread through our bodies when we found out that Wan Amran was the pilot of that ill-fated flight," he said.

        freemalaysiatoday.com

Amaluddin said his uncle had been piloting Boeing aircraft for more than 20 years. "He was very close to his siblings and contributed much to charity. His wife and two sons live in Shah Alam," he added.

Speaking to the Daily Telegraph about his reaction to the crash, Mr Sim, from Scotland, said: "You get this sick feeling in the pit of your stomach… We started getting butterflies. Your heartbeat starts going. There must have been someone watching over us and saying 'you must not get on that flight'."

"We are very loyal to Malaysia Airlines and we always want to fly with Malaysia Airlines." Mrs. Sim added that her husband usually disliked flying with KLM.

A neighbour reportedly noticed a strong smell coming from the house, but assumed it was the 85-year-old's urine and faeces after seeing the man throw yellow liquid from a container.

In April, the man's cousin attempted to visit the 85-year-old but was told not to

Despite his persistence, she went to the house on 10 May. He then broke the news that his mother had passed away a while ago.The woman immediately reported the case to the police.

The corpse was sent to Hospital Tangkak for an autopsy and further investigation.
No suspicious scars or wounds were found on the body.

On 11 May, the man revealed that he did not report his mother's death to the police because he feared that he would be arrested, Guang Ming reported.He only realised that she had passed away a day after her death, when her body began swelling up.

9 Ciri ‘Travel Buddy’ Idaman Yang Tak Peningkan Kepala Dan Best Untuk Bawa Pergi Jalan

Anak muda dan travel pada zaman ini, ibarat satu perkara yang tak boleh dipisahkan. Asal ada masa lapang saja, pasti ramai di antara kita akan mengambil peluang untuk travel.

Sebenarnya travel ni tak semestinya perlu jauh-jauh pun, dekat-dekat pun boleh yang penting anda have fun sewaktu travel tu. Jadi kalau ada masa terluang tu ajaklah kawan-kawan buat short trip, supaya masa lapang korang tu terisi dengan aktiviti menarik.Tapi macam mana korang nak pastikan trip korang tu best dan fun bila travel dengan kawan-kawan? Caranya senang je iaitu dengan memilih travel buddy yang tepat untuk korang. Yelah, masa travel ni lah kita nak release tension kan bukan nak ada masalah. Tapi apa ciri-ciri travel buddy yang best tu? Meh sini kami huraikan.

1. Sekufu

Sekufu di sini maksudnya korang kena lah cari travel buddy yang sekufu dengan bajet korang waktu tu. Sebagai contoh, kalau korang nak travel ala-ala bajet rendah punya style, kena lah cari member yang macam tu juga. Yang tak kisah untuk tidur di hotel bajet, tak kisah makan makanan-makanan tepi jalan dan sebagainya. Jadi nanti segala plan korang dari awal tu tak adalah tergendala bila tiba di lokasi percutian korang nanti tu.Kalau korang jenis travel yang lavish-lavish tu, korang pun kena lah cari member yang seangkatan dengannya. Barulah korang boleh menikmati percutian tu dengan sempurna.

Image via Zaidi Aziz/Facebook

2. Tak banyak songeh

Untuk pastikan korang tak stress sewaktu travel, pastikan yang travel buddy korang jenis yang tak banyak songeh. Pergi situ tak nak, pergi sini tak boleh. Itu tak suka, ini tak suka. Makan itu tak nak, makan ini tak mahu. Eh banyak cerita pulak kau ya? Bukan apa, benda ni secara tak langsung akan spoil - kan mood bercuti korang.

Image via Zaidi Aziz/Facebook

3. Jenis tak berkira

Jenis tak berkira kat sini bukan bermaksud korang boleh ambil kesempatan atas sikap baik yang diorang buat, tapi ini akan memudahkan lagi perjalanan aktiviti korang sewaktu travel. Misal kata, kalau korang waktu tu tertinggal dompet dalam bilik dan korang tak ada cash, so travel buddy ni boleh tolong bayarkan dulu untuk korang. Contoh lain, makan malam hari ini korang belanja, esok dia belanja pula. Kalau ada hutang seringgit dua tu apa lah sangat kan?

Image via Instagram @tsgkasijadi

4. Open-minded

Lagi bagus kalau dapat travel buddy yang jenis open-minded. Jadi bila berlaku benda yang remeh-temeh, tak perlu nak dijadikan isu sekali pun. Open-minded di sini bukanlah bermaksud korang sewenang-wenangnya boleh melakukan apa saja perkara tanpa batas, tetapi seseorang yang tidak judge sesuatu perkara berdasarkan apa yang dilihat. Contohnya, korang ke luar negara dan ternampak sesuatu budaya pelik masyarakat di situ, sebagai pelancong elakkan untuk bersikap judgemental. Ini juga serba sedikit akan merosakkan mood bercuti korang. Nanti nak berjalan pun susah, asyik fikir bukan-bukan.

Image via Zaidi Aziz/Facebook

5. Jenis menghormati orang lain

Walaupun dah lama kawan ke apa, sikap menghormati antara satu sama lain tu memang sepatutnya ada. Carilah travel buddy yang hormat dengan keadaan sekeliling dan bukannya yang jenis suka guna barang orang lain sesuka hati. Hatta, nak guna ubat gigi sekalipun. Sikap hormat ni penting supaya korang tak bertengkar dan bermasam muka sewaktu travel nanti. Tak best lah kalau travel kalau gaduh-gaduh macam tu kan?

Image via Instagram @tsgkasijadi

6. Sama-sama selesaikan masalah

Mana-mana je korang pergi pasti akan ada masalah. Tak kiralah kecil atau besar. Jadi pastikan travel buddy korang tu jenis yang akan sama-sama selesaikan masalah dan bukannya menambahkan masalah. Sepatutnya kalau ada masalah, kenalah bincang sama-sama untuk dapatkan jalan penyelesaian. Kalau ada masalah dia diam je, baik tinggalkan dia terus.

Image via Zaidi Aziz/Facebook

7. Tak malas bergerak

Dah nama pun travel, perlu lah banyak bergerak. Tambah-tambah lagi yang travel ala-ala backpackers, bergerak itu perkara utama yang perlu dilakukan. Percutian korang confirm tak akan best kalau ada travel buddy yang malas nak bergerak. Pergerakan korang pun akan jadi terhad. Elok-elok banyak tempat korang boleh pergi, tapi disebabkan dia ni korang terpaksa cancel plan ke sana sini. Semua benda nak naik kenderaan, jalan kaki sikit dah merungut. Ha macam mana tu?

Image via Instagram @apam_ikhwan

8. Bukan selfish

Sikap pentingkan diri sendiri ni memang tak ada siapa pun suka. Jadi kalau nak cari travel buddy tu pastikan diorang tu bukan selfish yang hanya fikir pasal diri sendiri je dan tak fikirkan pasal orang lain. Bak kata orang, nak lepaskan diri dia sorang je, member kat belakang tinggal sorang-sorang.

Image via Zaidi Aziz/Facebook

9. Pandai baca peta

Ini macam kira bonus lah. Kalau dapat travel buddy yang pandai baca peta lagi bagus. Ini akan mengelakkan korang dari tersesat. Lebih-lebih lagi jika korang backpackers. Masa pun jadi jimat dan kalau sesat sekalipun mesti diorang ni boleh bantu korang cari jalan pulang secepat yang mungkin. Tapi selalunya boleh baca peta ni mesti lelaki kan? Ke tak? Hmm...

8 Top Things You'll Love About Being In Switzerland For The First Time

1. The crystal clear water that you can drink right out of the tap!

Image via SAYS

You will notice the beautiful turquoise waters in Switzerland. The water is so clear that you can see how smooth the rock bed is.80% of Swiss drinking water stems from natural springs and groundwater, and the rest from lakes. It may be a foreign idea for Malaysians to get drinking water straight out of the tap, unfiltered. However, when in a country like Switzerland, many locals and tourists alike consume water straight out of the tap without second thoughts.  In fact, if you're feeling thirsty in Zurich, you can just head to any of the water fountains (unless there's a sign advising against consuming the water) and get free drinking water there. There are approximately 1,200 drinking water fountains in Zurich alone - the most in any city in the world!

Image via SAYS

2. The. fresh. air. No haze, no humidity. Just cool, fresh air.

Image via SAYS

Not only is Switzerland so beautiful, the country is also famed for the clean and fresh air to the point that some companies have decided to sell canned air collected from various locations around the Swiss Alps to residents of heavily polluted cities elsewhere in the world.You know the Swiss are serious about keeping air clean and fresh when there are quite a number of car-free villages in the country, such as the alpine villages Zermatt and Wengen.

Image via SAYS

3. There are plenty of freebies for tourists

Image via SAYS

Travelling around Switzerland can be a fun adventure. What’s even better is that some of the best things in Switzerland are free!You can easily borrow a bike in Zurich to explore the city. There's even an app to check on the bicycle availability information or the nearest bicycle station. Elsewhere in Geneva, you are entitled to a transport pass which grants you access to use the public transportation system of Geneva - including buses, trams, trains, and yellow taxi-boats - for free! This transport pass can usually be obtained for free from your hotel, hostel or even the campsite you're staying at.In some places like Interlaken, you can book a local guide for a walking tour without any cost at all.

Image via SAYS

4. Everything is always on time

Image via SAYS

If you're the kind of person who values punctuality and dislike being a victim of "Malaysian timing", you're going to enjoy being in Switzerland because the Swiss timing makes everything so efficient in the country, particularly its transportation system. The Swiss have developed a reputation for their timeliness, so rest assured that your travel plans in Switzerland should run rather smoothly if you're an 'on-time' type of person. If the train is scheduled to depart at 7.13am, it will depart exactly at 7.13am - not a minute later or earlier. So really, don't be tardy!

Image via SAYS

5. The awe-inspiring sights from train rides

Image via SAYS

In Switzerland, trains are not just a mode of transportation that get people from point A to point B. Passengers are treated to stunning panoramic views of the famous Swiss Alps through oversized windows as they can easily relax comfortably and admire sceneries.There are several panoramic trains and routes, and tickets or passes can be easily obtained online. The thought of falling asleep on long rail journeys might not even cross your mind - you wouldn’t want to miss witnessing the million-dollar sights of Switzerland’s Alpine views. So remember to sit back, relax, and enjoy.

6. It's a chocolate heaven

Some chocolates sold at Mr & Mrs Renou.
Image via SAYS

Swiss chocolates need no introduction. Ironically, in a country that has one of the highest chocolate consumption in the world, Switzerland doesn't have the climate to grow cocoa.So, how did the country become a top producer of chocolates even when they don't naturally have cocoa? What makes Swiss chocolates so special and desirable is - you may have guessed it - the rich creamy milk produced by Swiss pastureland.You’ll want to make sure you have enough space in your luggage bag to stuff your favourite chocolates and bring them back as precious souvenirs - or better yet, go join a chocolate-making workshop and bring them home! There's one in Interlaken called 'Funky Chocolate Club' where you can taste, create and decorate your chocolates.

Image via SAYS

7. FOOOOOD!

Image via SAYS

We know that nothing can come between Malaysians and good food. Rest assured that Swiss food will definitely leave you wanting for more.Switzerland’s 26 cantons (the administrative divisions of the country)  boast of their own specialties so take time to explore the top Swiss food in each region, which usually have strong French, Italian, and/or German influences. Various options are available from traditional cuisines for the meat-happy bunch to vegetarian meals. It's no coincidence that Zurich is home to Hiltl, a Guinness World Records holder for being the oldest continuously open vegetarian restaurant in the world.What are the must-have at least once during your visit? The cheese fondue and raclette.

Image via SAYS

8. Experience the unique European culture all in one country

Image via SAYS

Switzerland is home to people from virtually every country in the world so it's no wonder why it has been highly regarded as a melting pot of cultures.Switzerland is considered to be a relatively small country but it has four national languages: French, German, Italian and Romansh. The Swiss are mostly multilingual and are proud speakers of the unique Swiss-German dialects. What's interesting is that each canton in Switzerland has its own distinct variety when it comes to the Swiss-German.The rich European cultures are observed and reflected in the local Swiss traditions and customs, art, and architecture, to name a few.
