If there's one thing us Malaysians are known for, it's our ability to mix and match things to our fancy

While it's all perfectly normal to us locals, it may seem bizarre to foreigners, especially for those who aren't familiar with Malaysian culture.

Our love for food knows no bounds, and it shows when we mix and match all kinds of interesting combos, hehe

From nasi lemak gelato to durian with plain rice, there's no doubt that we can get pretty creative when coming up with new creations. Some of us may remember pisang goreng cheese going viral a while back, and still remains popular to this day.What can we say, our food combos are unbeatable. :P

Aside from local delicacies, it's also not unusual for us to mix and match languages in our daily conversations

By campuring languages such as English, Malay, Mandarin, and Tamil together, the so-called rojak language can only be understood by Malaysians, hehe. As we live in a multilingual country, it's only natural for us to combine the languages we speak, as long as we can get the point across faster. If you understand the phrase, "Dei, why you go mamak and never ajak me lah?", you're a pro at rojak language edy.

No matter how strange these things appear to others, the way we mix and match is exactly what makes us different and unique ;)

It just goes to show that us Malaysians have our own preferences, from the way we speak to the food we enjoy on a daily basis. While we all may not have the same quirks and tastes, we understand and respect each other's choices. After all, each of us has our own unique interests and personalities that suit our lifestyle.

Malaysians Still Can't Enter The US Without A Visa Because Of This One Problem

For years, Malaysia has been trying to get into the US Visa Waiver Programme (VWP)

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak has been pushing for Malaysia's participation in the US Visa Waiver Program (VWP) since former US President Barack Obama's administration.The VWP was incepted in 1986 and the programme allows citizens of eligible countries to travel to the US for up to 90 days, whether it's for business or tourism purposes. Currently, the programme has been extended to 38 participating countries, in which US citizens and nationals are allowed to travel without a visa to the respective countries for a similar length of time for business or tourism purposes.

Malaysia has been very close in qualifying for the US VWP, fulfilling six out of the seven conditions laid out by the US

According to Malaysia's ambassador to the US, Tan Sri Dr Zulhasnan Rafique, these are the six requirements that Malaysia have managed to fulfil: • No visa requirement imposed on US citizens travelling to Malaysia; • Use of e-passport as per International Civil Aviation Organisation specifications; • Deportation of Malaysians who overstay in the US; • Signing of the Homeland Security Presidential Directive No. 6 Arrangement; • Signing the Preventing and Combating Serious Crime Agreement; and • Exchange of information on Stolen and Lost Travel Documents. The only condition that Malaysia has failed to fulfil so far, is adhering to the minimum approval rate of 97% in filling up the US visa forms.

He revealed that the country only fell short of being a participating country in the VWP because of Malaysians' inability to fill in forms correctly

"Malaysians just seem to be unable to fill the forms correctly. For the country to qualify for the programme, there must be no more than 3% rejection of applications for visa," Zulhasnan said. "But the failure rate is still hovering between 3.4% to 3.7% and majority of the rejection is because the forms were not filled up correctly," he was quoted as saying by Malay Mail Online. He also explained that the rejection rate is beyond the embassy in Kuala Lumpur's control, since such applications are done on an individual basis. Meanwhile, The Malaysian Insight reported that US ambassador Kamala Shirin Lakhdir has also confirmed the matter, saying that Malaysia had a 96.7% approval rate for the US business (B1) and tourist (B2) visas.

Nevertheless, it was reported that Malaysia may finally be eligible for the VWP as early as next year

"The visa-waiver programme should come into effect next year – 2018," The Malaysian Insight cited sources familiar with talks between US and Malaysian officials as saying.  On the other hand, The Star Online also reported that a discussion on including Malaysia in the US visa waiver programme is expected to take place at the White House today, 12 September, as Najib is scheduled to meet US President Donald Trump. Najib is currently on a working visit to the US from 11 September until 13 September, at the invitation of Trump.

Do you think Malaysia will be able to participate in the US Visa Waiver Programme by next year? Let us know your thoughts in the comment section below.


[PHOTOS] How China Is Dealing With Internet-Addicted Teens Is Absolutely Shocking

Back in 2007, the New York Times reported that China had opened up an "Internet addiction boot camp" — a place where teens could be cured of excessive use of the Internet

Internet addiction is worrying China. Boot camp-style correctional facilities hope to deprogram those who live in online worlds
Image via news.com.au

Patients, overwhelmingly male and aged 14 to 19, wake up in dormitories at 6:15 a.m. to do morning calisthenics and march on the cracked concrete grounds wearing khaki fatigues. Drill sergeants bark orders at them when they are not attending group and individual counseling sessions. Therapy includes patients simulating war games with laser guns. The center's tough-love approach to breaking Internet addiction is unique to China, but necessary in a country with over two million teenage Internet addicts, according to the facility's staff.

        nytimes.com

Now, the boot camps have proliferated. Up to 250 of them exist in China alone and following the Chinese example they have popped up in Korea as well

Teens are almost always committed to such facilities by worried parents who see their children's grades falling as they spend more and more time surfing the web or gaming.

Several years ago, the US created its own Internet addiction boot camp. As Motherboard reports:

America’s first Internet addiction treatment program, reSTART, which opened in 2009 in Seattle not far from Microsoft's headquarters, now has a youth program. And other behavioral modification programs usually targeted at rebellious and/or drug and alcohol-addled teens are adding Internet addiction to the laundry list of problems they solve. The US, however, should look at the proliferation of internet bootcamps in China as a cautionary tale.

        vice.com

Some 70% of the 110 children at the institution are being treated for problems instigated by Internet overuse. Overwhelmingly, Internet overuse involves immersion in online games.

Teachers and military instructors who pick up the troubled teenagers, at the request of their parents, aim to use military instruction to inculcate habits of discipline. "Internet-addicted children are in very poor physical condition,” said Mr Xing Liming, an official of the centre. “Their obsession with the Internet has harmed their health and they end up losing their ability to participate in a normal life.”

Students who formerly did nothing but move their fingers over mouse and keyboard all day must now do cleaning and washing and take turns helping to cook meals

"Education and living in a military environment makes them more disciplined and restores their ability to live a normal life,” said Xing. "The training improves their physical strength and helps to develop good living habits.”

        straitstimes.com

Besides the drill and physical exercises, the courses, which run between four and eight months, cover classes in music and Chinese lion dancing

Counselling sessions with psychologists aim to help victims rebuild self-confidence and their ties to family and friends. "My dream job was to be a game designer, but I realised I could not achieve it because I am not good at math and English,”said He, 23, who went through a six-month course that uncovered his passion for baking. “I think learning baking will help me find a job,” he said.

Whether or not the camps actually work is questionable, and in some cases, they might even cause more harm than good

One mother in China is suing a camp, claiming that her daughter's addiction only became worse after a stint at the facility, The Straits Times reports. In two extreme cases, boot camp patients died after being administered a beating as part of their therapy.

18 Koleksi Troll Pecah Perut #DearNajib Dan Isu Derma RM2.6 Bilion Di Twitter

Isu RM2.6 bilion dimasukkan ke dalam akaun Najib telah berlegar sejak bulan lepas lagi. Sama ada benar atau tidak, perkara itu susah untuk dipastikan.

Image via www.economist.com

Dakwaan tersebut menjadi lebih "panas" selepas video Muhyiddin yang mengatakan Najib mengaku dalam akaunnya ada duit RM2.6 bilion didapati tersebar meluas di laman sosial minggu lalu

×

Walau bagaimanapun, Ahmad Maslan saved the day! Beliau tampil menafikan dakwaan oleh bekas TPM itu dengan berkata "Itu tidak betul.. tidak ada pengaliran wang dan sebagainya ke dalam akaun Najib."

Image via bm.therakyatpost.com

Ketua Penerangan UMNO, Datuk Ahmad Maslan menafikan Datuk Seri Najib memindahkan wang berjumlah RM2.6 bilion ke dalam akaun peribadinya seperti yang tersebar dalam sebuah video.Ahmad menegaskan perkara tersebut sudah dijelaskan perdana menteri dan beliau juga menafikan menggunakan dana 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB)."Itu tidak betul.. tidak ada pengaliran wang dan sebagainya. Sebenarnya Najib telah memberi taklimat kepada kami Ahli Majlis Tertinggi (UMNO) tentang perkara yang berkaitan. Beliau tidak pernah menggunakan dana 1MDB untuk masukkan ke dalam akaun dia," katanya.

        astroawani.com

Tetapi semalam, lain pula ceritanya. SPRM dedahkan dalam akaun Najib memang ada duit RM2.6 bilion itu, cuma ia bukanlah dana 1MDB tetapi dari penderma.

Image via www.malaysia-chronicle.com

“Laporan hasil siasatan berkaitan dana RM2.6 bilion telah dirujuk dan dimaklumkan kepada peguam negara.""Hasil siasatan mendapati dana sebanyak RM2.6 bilion yang didakwa dimasukkan ke dalam akaun milik YAB Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak adalah sumbangan penderma, dan bukannya dari dana 1MDB,” kata SPRM.

        malaysiakini.com

Siapa pula yang nak derma sampai RM2.6 bilion kepada PM? Pemurah sungguh. Adakah saudagar Ismet Ulam Raja adik beradik Ulam Pegaga?

Image via Twitter @Haikalshobri

Mungkin inilah transaksi yang telah dilakukan oleh saudagar Ismet. Walaupun dah derma RM2.6 bilion kepada Najib, dalam akaun masih ada RM25 bilion. KAYA!

Image via Twitter @mattsofi

Atau mungkin inilah SMS yang diterima Najib dari pihak bank bagi memaklumkan tentang pemindahan wang sebanyak RM2.6 bilion ke dalam akaun beliau. #untunglah

Image via www.facebook.com

Image via www.malaysiakini.com

Penderma wang tersebut memang bukan 1MDB. Tapi rupa-rupanya dia adalah seorang warga Kelate yang bernama Wan Emdibi Bin Wan Kamarudin. Hok aloh!

Image via Twitter @joezaluchi

Image via Twitter @Fauz_n

Selepas berita penderma ini tersebar, perkataan corruption ditukar menjadi donation...

Image via Twitter @tianchua

...rasuah menjadi sedekah...

Image via Twitter @tianchua

...dan transaksi bank in dianggap sebagai derma. Berlainan pula kalau bagi duit by hand. #kipidap

Image via Twitter @berkopiah

Orang kampung pun mula berbalah siapa yang lebih layak untuk jadi pengerusi. Tapi jangan risau sebab ada cara macam mana nak settle.

Image via WhatsApp

Kemudian Najib pun tampil menceritakan perkara yang sebenar...

Image via Twitter @malaysian_gags

...atau Najib biarkan saja apa orang nak kata. #likeaboss

Image via Twitter @aqoimran

Mesyuarat demi mesyuarat diadakan dalam pejabat Perdana Menteri. Akhirnya mereka jumpa juga jalan penyelesaian.

Image via Twitter @imranU7

Image via Twitter @nurulsyazanasir

Orang dah kata filem Hollywood tu tak logik. Toksah percaya temberang omputih.

Image via Twitter @azimKhrs

Emmm...mungkin juga Najib mampu beli syarikat Nike dengan duit RM2.6 bilion tu dan tukar nama asalnya kepada sesuatu yang baru. #mindausahawan #pelaburanbijak

Image via Twitter @fitrihadidotcom

Ok last sekali, cuba telan ni dalam-dalam

Image via Twitter @MillaVenus

Plot twist: Kalau kita tengok balik, sebenarnya duit tu semuanya datang dari rakyat Malaysia.

5 Men Arrested For Holding Noisy Funeral Procession And Displaying Alleged '36' Gang Sign

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

The police have arrested five individuals for being involved in a funeral procession, in which one of the vehicles was seen carrying a logo that is believed to be linked to a secret society

According to Bernama, the arrest came after two videos showing the funeral procession went viral on social media.The videos are said to be taken at Pantai Dalam and Jalan Tun Sambanthan in Kuala Lumpur on Sunday, 14 March.In a 36-second long video that SAYS sighted, a multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) can be seen carrying a photo of the deceased, while beneath it is a wreath that features the number '36'.The video also shows two huge banners featuring a photo of an individual — believed to be the deceased — hanging on a flat-like building. The road in front of the building is covered with residue left by firecrackers.China Press reported that nearly 20 motorcycles can be seen sending off the deceased, making loud noises as well as causing traffic congestion.

Image via YouTube

A report by The Star in 2013 had described 'Gang 36' as one of the most feared secret societies in the country that was made up of Chinese and predominantly Indian members.

Brickfields district police chief ACP Anuar Omar said preliminary investigations revealed that the suspects and the deceased were friends since childhood

The deceased was a 28-year-old man, who died in a car accident at 7am on 14 March.Prior to his death, the deceased told his friends that he wished that his relatives and friends would set off firecrackers to send him off.The suspects did as the deceased wanted to fulfil his last wish, reported China Press.

The five suspects — aged between 18 and 26 — were arrested at separate locations around Kuala Lumpur between 9pm on 16 March and 2.30am on 17 March

Anuar said one of the suspects had a past criminal record of committing mischief.Bernama reported that three cars — a Toyota Vellfire, a Toyota Camry, and a Honda Civic — along with a Yamaha LC motorcycle, and a bouquet of flowers in the shape of the number 36 were seized by the police.The case is being investigated under Section 52 (3) of the Societies Act 1966, Section 8 of the Explosives Act 1957, Section 269 of the Penal Code, and Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998.

Don't Use These 17 Words In Your Resumé

6.25 seconds, that is the amount of time an employer spends looking at your resumé before deciding whether or not they like you.

6.25 seconds, that is the amount of time an employer spends looking at your résumé before deciding whether or not to contact you.
Image via dice.com

One recent study showed that recruiters spend all of 6.25 seconds looking at a candidate’s résumé before deciding whether he or she is fit for a job. While some 17% of hiring managers said they spend 30 seconds or less, 68% said they scan a résumé for as long as two minutes before putting it aside. Still, that’s hardly any time to impress someone who could determine your employment future.

        forbes.com

The national survey by CareerBuilder was conducted online by Harris Poll on behalf of CareerBuilder from November 6 to December 2, 2013, and included a representative sample of 2,201 hiring managers and human resource professionals across industries and company sizes.

        careerbuilder.com

How to impress an employer in 6.25 seconds? The words you choose to use in your resumé can pique the employer's curiosity to read more.

“Hiring managers prefer strong action words that define specific experience, skills and accomplishments,” said Rosemary Haefner, vice president of human resources at CareerBuilder.

        careerbuilder.com

However, the wrong selection of terms can also be a turn off and make the employer hit the 'delete' button

“Subjective terms and clichés are seen as negative because they don’t convey real information. For instance, don’t say you are ‘results-driven’; show the employer your actual results.”

        careerbuilder.com

These 17 words are the worst terms to use in your résumé as selected by hiring managers:

According to job search site The Ladder, employers spend time scanning through resumés looking for keywords that matched the open position

Always describe the results you've achieved to show your accomplishments.
Image via thinkpro.net

TheLadders used eye-tracking software to study the behavior of 30 recruiters over a 10-week period, to see how they read résumés.
The study subjects spent the remaining 20% of their résumé-scanning time looking for keywords that matched the open position. But while they read keywords, according to the study, recruiters based their decisions on those six pieces of data.

        forbes.com

The study also shows that recruiters spend 80% of that six seconds looking at just six things:
Name
Current title/company
Previous title/company
Previous position, start and end dates
Current position, start and end dates
Education

        forbes.com

Remember, self-praise is no praise. Always describe the results you've achieved to show your accomplishments.

This is not a good example of an effective résumé.

The message: Don’t include sweeping terms of self-praise, like “team player,” “go-getter” and “self-motivated.” Rather describe your accomplishments specifically with words like “improved,” “created” and “increased” and a specific explanation of exactly what you did, including numbers whenever possible.

        forbes.com

For instance, instead of saying you added value to your sales team by your dynamic, results-driven efforts to proactively boost sales, say you improved every monthly sales target in the last six months by 40%. In other words, instead of saying you are results-driven, show the results you’ve achieved.

Follow kami di Telegram, jadi antara yang terawal untuk dapatkan berita dan artikel-artikel menarik di SAYS Seismik.

Jika anda masih ingat pada tahun lalu, seorang wanita telah diserang secara seksual di hadapan anak perempuannya di tempat letak kereta di Tamarind Square. Kini, muncul lagi kes wanita dicabul di lokasi yang sama.

Menurut pengguna Twitter @nrsyfreyna, dua rakannya telah diganggu dan diraba oleh seorang lelaki di Tamarind Square semalam.Akan tetapi, rakannya itu terpaksa berdiam kerana salah seorang rakannya itu mengandung dan takut akan merbahayakan keselamatan mereka jika mereka menjerit.

and she didn’t fight back because she was with her pregnant friend and afraid it will jeopardise their safety— sugarcane (@nrsyfreyna) April 5, 2022

he literally stuck up his finger to your private part. fucking crazy— sugarcane (@nrsyfreyna) April 5, 2022

Lalu, laporan polis telah dibuat dan pihak polis memberitahu bahawa pihak pengurusan masih berdiam akan isu tersebut. Walau bagaimanapun, wanita itu turut mendakwa bahawa pihak polis telah meminta rakannya menarik laporan ekoran ketiadaan bukti yang mencukupi.

Terdapat lagi kes cabul pada hari yang sama selepas kejadian awal berlaku

Selain itu, pengguna Twitter @asymqw_ turut berkongsi kes cabul yang berlaku di tempat letak kereta bawah tanah Tamarind Square pada hari yang sama. Menerusi perkongsiannya, dia mendengar ada suara orang menjerit lalu dia pun membunyikan hon kerana tidak pasti dari arah mana suara itu.

Then, i dh gelabah and risau terus tekan hon kereta lama lama sbb tak tahu dkt mana akak tu. Masa turun kereta nampak akak ni dh nangis kat area nk masuk lift. She asked me nampak tak lelaki tadi, i mmg tak nampak apa sbb baru turun kereta.— MQ (@asymqw__) April 5, 2022

Kemudian, dia ternampak seorang wanita yang ketakutan di bahagian tempat menaiki lift. Lalu, wanita tersebut yang trauma turut bertanya jika dia ada terlihat lelaki yang cuba mencabulnya sebelum melarikan diri dan kejadian ini telah dirakam oleh kamera litar tertutup (CCTV).

Kedua-dua mangsa dipercayai diserang oleh pelaku individu yang sama

Bukan itu sahaja, para netizen turut menasihati agar wanita lebih berhati-hati dan tidak jalan berseorang di tempat sunyi.

Nauzubillah. Pihak tamarind patut provide psychological assessment. Sebab isu cam ni kan boleh buat traumatize. Early prevention, prevent long term effects. Sebab jadi kat area tamarind square. which mean you are not taking care of your security well.— 69 (@nnuranisahs) April 6, 2022

Tempat sikit punya cantik cctv pun susah nak letak. Haih bahaya la diorang basement parking semua tu dh la sunyi gila lepas tu confusing jalan dia.— Jos (@najiehamzln) April 5, 2022

A repeat offence and tamarind sq knew about it, but still no cctv - means no interest to keep people safe.This is not the 1st time as i have tweeted this before. So, dont go the place who doesnt care in keeping people safe. Sorry this happened. Kudos to your friend.— Linda_MY (@maslinda5330) April 5, 2022

Dalam pada itu, para netizen turut mencadangkan agar pihak pengurusan memperketatkan kawalan keselamatan kerana kejadian ini sering terjadi di Tamarind Square.Difahamkan, laporan polis telah dibuat dan siasatan masih diteruskan bagi mengesan suspek serta kes disiasat di bawah Seksyen 354 Kanun Keseksaan. Walau bagaimanapun, tiada kenyataan rasmi daripada pihak pengurusan Tamarind Square berhubung isu berkenaan.Dalam satu kenyatan, Ketua Polis Daerah Sepang Wan Kamarul Azran Wan Yusof berkata, pihak polis kini sedang memburu seorang lelaki berkulit gelap dan matanya juling bagi membantu siasatan berhubung dua kejadian ini.

Where To Lepak After This? Netizens Mourn The Closure Of SS15's Asia Cafe

Asia Cafe in SS15, Subang, has been like a second home to many students and residents in the area for the last 14 years

Image via Loftsubang

Asia Cafe is famed for its local hawker stalls and entertainment outlets such as internet cafe and pool tables - all under one roof. As the place is surrounded by many colleges and universities in the vicinity, it is definitely one of the more popular spots in the area for students to hang out. Many locals who have been to this place would recount of their fond memories here over the years.

Despite the popularity of this place, the owner of the land that Asia Cafe is sitting on has other plans in mind. The food court will be demolished by the end of the year to develop a new project.

Boutique developer Mediaraya Sdn Bhd has set eyes to launch a new project on the two-acre site it owns, and unfortunately, Asia Cafe has to go to rebuild it into a new development. News of the demolition first broke out last November, when a representative told The Edge Property's City & Country that Asia Cafe will be redeveloped into a Small-office Home-office (SoHo) project, which will comprise of two blocks with a total of 483 units.  "Asia Cafe was set up in 2003 and the building is a bit weathered. Initially, we planned to retrofit it, but after considering the changing trend and the warm weather, we felt that it is best to redevelop it to fit the market segment… plus air conditioning," said Mark Choo, Mediaraya property development general manager. No exact date for the demolition has been announced so far but according to a report by The Hyped Geek that was published today, 10 August, stall operators in Asia Cafe said that they will be shutting down their business here at the end of October.

As October draws nearer, news of the demolition is becoming more surreal and regular patrons can't help but to feel a little sad about it

Quite a number of people said that they were going to miss hanging out and eating all the good food here...

2 Wanita Ini Nekad Kerja Dalam 'Bidang Lelaki' Dan Tepis Segala Stereotaip. Inspirasi!

Setakat ini, jarang kita dengar wanita memonopoli tugas lelaki, kan? Kalau ada pun seorang dua. Itu pun tugas mereka tak terlalu terdedah kepada umum.

Tapi, baru-baru ni kami ada jumpa dua orang superwomen yang sudah berkecimpung dalam bidang yang dimonopoli lelaki selama bertahun-tahun.Tugas mencabar yang digalas itu membuktikan bahawa wanita bukanlah lemah, namun mampu bersaing dengan ketangkasan lelaki. Jom kita baca kisah mereka di bawah:

1. Sazaimah Sai'on, 44 - Pengurus Besar, G-Car Manufacturer Sdn Bhd (G-Car)

Image via ohbulan.com

Setiap pagi, Sazaimah akan menghantar anak ke sekolah. Kemudian, breakfast sekejap untuk enjoy me time sebelum masuk kerja.Ditanya kenapa memilih untuk masuk ke bidang ini, Sazaimah berkata dia mahu keluar dari kebiasaan. Walaupun agak kekok mengendalikan mekanik lelaki, namun dia anggap ini semua sebagai satu cabaran.

Image via ohbulan.com

"Sebelum mengambil keputusan ini, saya tanya mak saya dia ada kawan mekanik wanita ke? Sebab, dia sudah ada kawan doktor wanita dan cikgu wanita. Jawabnya, tiada. Jadi, saya sahut cabaran tu supaya satu hari nanti bila kereta mak saya rosak, dia tak perlu ke bengkel lain. Silap-silap kena tipu dan dipaksa tukar macam-macam oleh mekanik kat sana," kata Sazaimah.Atas dasar minat terhadap kereta lumba Formula (F1), beliau dia mengambil kursus automotif di Pusat Latihan Perantis Mercedes-Benz Malaysia pada 1995. selepas tamat SPM.

Image via ohbulan.com

Ibu kepada dua orang anak ini berkongsi, hampir kesemua pelanggannya adalah lelaki dan ramai juga antara mereka yang memandang rendah kebolehan dan kepakarannya. Disebabkan keangkuhan pelanggan juga, beliau pernah dilemparkan kata-kata kurang enak dan sebagainya ketika menjalankan tugas.“Saya selalu pesan dengan staff saya. Kereta memang selalu banyak masalah, manusia pun ada masalah. Jadi, mana nak selesaikan dulu, kereta punya masalah atau manusia? Kereta tak boleh cakap, manusia boleh cakap. Jadi, selesaikan masalah manusia dulu,” katanya lagi.

Image via ohbulan.com

Menggalas tugas lelaki sebagai mekanik dan pengurus workshop ini secara tak langsung menjadikan Sazaimah seorang #WaniTough. Ditanya apa definisi #WaniTough buat dirinya, beliau berkata sebenarnya semangat itu ada dalam jiwa setiap wanita.“Jangan takut nak mencuba. Mencuba itu tak salah. Dari situ kita dapat tahu dan ukur kekuatan sebenar kita."Nak toreh getah pun kena tough, bangun pagi, siapkan sarapan, keluar rumah awal dan sebagainya. Nak melahirkan anak pun kena tough, kalau tak kuat semangat, tak boleh jugak. Setiap kerja ada cabarannya. Kalau you dapat harungi setiap cabaran, you are already tough,“ katanya lagi.

2. Rokiah Salim, 53 - pemandu treler

Image via ohbulan.com

Biasanya kita lihat treler panjang bertayar 20 dipandu lelaki, kan? Namun, lain pula untuk Rokiah Salim apabila memilih menjadi pemandu treler sejak 2014. Bangga dengan pekerjaan sekarang ini, Rokiah, 53, atau lebih dikenali sebagai ‘Akak Lori’ mengakui tidak sukar memandu treler panjang. Sebaliknya, lebih kurang sama seperti memandu kereta, namun memerlukan kekuatan dan semangat yang tinggi.

Image via ohbulan.com

“Setiap hari akak akan ambil kontena kosong yang turun dari kapal untuk hantar ke depoh. Kat situ, pihak depoh akan buat survey, repair dan gredkan kontena. Biasanya akak akan ambil job dari depoh ke depoh, depoh ke port dan port ke depoh,” katanya.Rokiah berkongsi, pendapatan keluarga ketika itu tidak mencukupi. Lantas, beliau berazam mahu membantu bagi mencari pendapatan lebih buat keluarga dan mengambil keputusan untuk memandu treler selepas disarankan rakan-rakan terdekat.

Image via ohbulan.com

“Sebab nak tolong keluarga, jadi akak kena fikir kerja apa yang boleh bagi akak gaji lebih tinggi. Kawan-kawan bikers akak bagi cadangan ada satu kerja ni susah tapi lumayan iaitu pemandu treler. Diorang semua bagi galakan dan sokongan, kecuali adik-beradik akak.“Masa tu, abang ipar tentang. Dia kata nanti family susah hati bab keselamatan dan semua tu. Tapi akak fikir nak sara hidup keluarga masa tu, anak pulak dua-dua kat universiti. Kena usaha jugaklah.“Kerja ni siapa-siapa pun boleh buat, bukan hak lelaki. Dulu yelah orang kata kerja ni susah, berat. Bila akak cuba buat, tak susah pun. Kerja ni senang je. Rebut peluang sementara masih ada, dik. Fight untuk life dalam keadaan ekonomi sekarang ni,” katanya lagi.

Image via ohbulan.com

Bila dah berada dalam bidang ni, tak sahlah kalau tak ada cabaran yang boleh membuatkan beliau tertekan. Rokiah berkata, biasanya dia kena buli dengan beratus pemandu lelaki lain, itu perkara biasa. Tapi, dia banyakkan bersabar dan fokus dengan tujuan hidup.“Kalau jadi macam ni, akak akan spend time dengan family dan kawan-kawan. Akak akan atur jadual 1-15 haribulan pulun trip, 7-8 trip sehari. Lepas tu cuti seminggu untuk spend time dengan anak dan kawan-kawan. Masa tu banyaklah kawan-kawan ajak shopping, makan, daki gunung dan sebagainya," kata Rokiah.

Image via ohbulan.com

Ditanya apa definisi #WaniTough yang bermaksud wanita cekal, tabah dan mampu membuktikan keupayaan dengan menggalas tanggungjawab yang berat bagi dirinya, Rokiah berkata dulu ramai orang cakap wanita lemah, tapi kini segalanya telah berubah.“Orang kata dulu perempuan ni buat kerja ringan-ringan je. Sekarang zaman dah lain dan makin adil. Sebagai wanita, kita kena berlumba untuk dapatkan sesuatu. Asalkan kita sentiasa mencuba dan bersungguh-sungguh. Tanamkan semangat dan disiplin dalam diri,” kata Rokiah lagi.

Kami salute wanita-wanita yang berani keluar daripada zon selesa dan yang mampu mengubah persepsi orang ramai seperti dua wanita ini

Image via tumblr.com

Wanita zaman kini semakin lama semakin hebat dan berani. Tidak sesuai lagi untuk kita gelar golongan ini sebagai 'kaum yang lemah' berbanding kaum Adam.Wanita sememangnya hebat! Lihat saja pada ibu-ibu anda sendiri yang selama ini telah berpenat lelah membesarkan dan mendidik kita semua sedari kecil sehingga besar. Jadi, hargailah kaum Hawa kerana mereka berhak mendapat layanan sama rata dari masyarakat.

Ayuh sama-sama kita buang stereotaip 'wanita lemah' yang sekian lama membenak di dalam kotak fikiran kita

Can Phones Cause Fires At Petrol Stations?

Many of us have been wondering - can phones cause fires at petrol stations?

Image via Jasarat

Signs banning the use of mobiles are posted in petrol stations across the country because it is commonly thought that they could ignite explosions.But does it hold any truth or is it nothing but a myth?

According to experts, it is safe to use your handphones while pumping petrol. The Petroleum Equipment Institute, a leading authority for fuel and fluid equipment in the US have stated that there are no correlation between fire ignition and mobile phones

Image via mobileindustryreview

"We have not documented a single incident that was caused by a cellular telephone.Cell phones continue to be cited as causing fires at the pump in e-mails circulating on the Internet. So far, we have been unable to document any incidents that were sparked by a cellular telephone. In fact, many researchers have tried to ignite fuel vapors with a cell phone and failed," said Bob Renke from The Petroleum Equipment Institute.

        pei.org

The myth was famously debunked by the Mythbusters a few years back. The episode saw  Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman trying to make a mobile phone explode in a chamber full of petrol vapour, and failed.

Image via Discovery

The team concluded that a properly-working cell phone poses almost no danger of igniting gasoline, even when surrounded by gasoline vapor with the optimum fuel-air mix for ignition.The actual risk comes from an electrostatic discharge between a charged driver and the car, often a result of continually getting into and out of the vehicle.

If cell phones don't cause fires, then why do petrol stations put up signages that show they do?

Much like driving, the reason why you should not do so is simply because using handphones distracts you and this loss of concentration may expose to you to other dangers such as other cars moving around the petrol station.

Yup, you guessed it - the culprit that causes fires at petrol stations is none other than static electricity! First, let's take a look at what's static electricity.

An illustration of static electricity

Static electricity is the result of an imbalance between negative and positive charges in an object. These charges can build up on the surface of an object until they find a way to be released or discharged.The rubbing of certain materials against one another can transfer negative charges, or electrons. For example, if you rub your shoe on the carpet, your body collects extra electrons. The electrons cling to your body until they can be released.

Every time you pump petrol, there are vapours that hangs around the nozzle, even when it's inserted in your gas tank. Those vapors can be ignited by static electricity.

Those vapors can be ignited by static electricity. If you have a habit of heading back into your car while pumping petrol, the visit inside your car might have charged you up enough to ignite those gasoline fumes. According to fire marshall Jim Farr,  you can get up to 60,000 volts of static electricity just by going in and out of your vehicle.

Now that you know how fires at petrol stations are caused, here are some useful tips on preventing static fire:

1. Try not to get back in your car until you are finished pumping gas.2. When you get out to pump gas, get rid of any static charge before you reach for the pump. That could be as simple as tapping the hood of your car, or any metal surface.3. Experts say if a fire does start, never take the gas nozzle out of your car. That is the surest way to turn a bad situation into a tragedy. Everyone who has been hurt, injured, or has been killed, has pulled that nozzle out.

Stay safe, guys! Always keep your eyes on the road. :)

Husky Dies Protecting Its Family's Home From A 4-Foot Cobra In Taiping

A husky has died protecting its family from a cobra attack in Taiping, Perak on 20 March

According to Oriental Daily, owner Yap said her husky — named Dai Bao — loved to rest on the front porch of her house.On the day of the incident at 11am, a four-foot long cobra slithered into Yap's house, and Dai Bao was the first to realise the threat.Being a selfless guard dog, Dao Bao immediately attacked the venomous snake.The full-grown husky managed to severely injure the cobra after a fierce battle, but was bitten in the process.

Image via Yap Y.F. (Facebook)

"At the time of the incident, only my mother and daughter were at home," Yap told the Chinese daily.
"When my daughter heard Dai Bao's bark, she went outside the house (to find out what happened)."

Yap said her daughter was surprised to see Dai Bao biting the snake while jolting its body around."Following which, Dai Bao loosened its bite and the injured snake fell to the ground. (The snake) and Dai Bao were at a stalemate."According to her, Dai Bao was gasping for air, its nose was bleeding, and its eyebrows were swollen. Yap said the husky was obviously bitten by the cobra.She said her mother hurriedly sought help from relatives who live nearby, and they managed to subdue the snake."After receiving the call from my mother, I rushed home and took Dai Bao to a veterinary clinic," Guang Ming Daily quoted her as saying."However, the veterinarian told my family to be mentally prepared because there is no venom antiserum for animals in Malaysia. The dog had to go through this ordeal in order to survive."

Image via Yap Y.F. (Facebook)

Despite receiving injections and being put on a drip, Dai Bao succumbed to its injuries

In a Facebook post published on 20 March, Yap said she adopted Dai Bao from the streets on 19 July 2019."You were in our house for less than two years, and now you've left us," she lamented.Prior to adopting Dai Bao, she and her children worried that the stray husky would go hungry on the streets. Thus, they brought food to feed it on 2 July 2019.However, an animal shelter later asked Yap and her family whether they could adopt the husky temporarily. Since Yap's children love huskies and they promised to take good care of it, she agreed to adopt the stray.

At that time, the husky was about three to four years old. Due to long-term starvation and malnutrition, it weighed only 14.6kg and was suffering from severe skin diseases.

"After raising it for about three months, Dai Bao recovered its health, gained weight, and became a handsome and cute dog, who brought us a lot of joy," Yap said.She added that her children named Dai Bao after the main character in Disney animated movie Dumbo, reported Oriental Daily.Her family hoped that by adopting Dai Bao, it could become like the flying elephant Dumbo — being able to find happiness after living a difficult life."My friend said that Dai Bao wanted to repay us for adopting it, but we didn't need the favour repaid. We wanted Dai Bao to accompany our family peacefully every day until it gets old," Yap said.Dai Bao will be buried under a big tree next to Yap's house, which was the husky's favorite place to play.

In May last year, a dog also gave his life protecting his family from a snake attack in Bintulu, Sarawak:

[VIDEO & GIF] Mat Rempit "Bersepah" Dalam Kemalangan Di Lebuh Raya KESAS

[TERKINI] Penganjur Lumba Haram Bersihkan Lebuh Raya KESAS Sampai Tak Ada Kesan

Image via www.youtube.com

Penganjur perlumbaan haram yang menyaksikan beberapa Mat Rempit "bersepah" setelah merempuh kereta Proton Exora tempoh hari nampaknya telah memastikan tidak ada bukti yang ditinggalkan di tempat kejadian.Pihak pengurusan lebuh raya tersebut berkata mereka menerima panggilan memberitahu tentang insiden itu pada jam 5.15 pagi tetapi apabila pasukan peronda tiba di tempat kejadian 10 minit kemudian, mereka tidak temui apa-apa tanda kemalangan."Ketika kami tiba sekitar jam 5.27 pagi di Kilometer 29.7, kami langsung tak jumpa serpihan kaca atau kesan darah di lokasi tersebut, apatah lagi mangsa kemalangan. Hanya sebuah motosikal hangus dan pemandu Proton Exora saja berada di tempat kejadian."Mereka yang menganjurkan perlumbaan sangat tangkas dan cekap dalam membersihkan segala bukti kemalangan. Ini adalah punca mengapa pihak pengurusan KESAS pada mulanya gagal mencari lokasi kejadian terbabit," kata sumber.

        themalaysianinsider.com

Selasa, 22 September 2015: Satu kejadian kemalangan ngeri telah berlaku malam tadi membabitkan 6 motosikal yang sedang berlumba haram merempuh sebuah kereta Proton Exora di Lebuh Raya KESAS

Image via www.youtube.com

Video kemalangan Mat Rempit lumba haram ini telah menjadi viral sejak pagi tadi dan tersebar secara meluas di laman sosial, terutamanya di Facebook dan Whatsapp.Difahamkan, salah satu penunggang motor dengan tidak sengaja telah merempuh bahagian tepi Proton Exora itu semasa memotong, membuatkannya terbabas dan pada masa yang sama turut melanggar rakan-rakan penunggang yang lain.

Sejurus kejadian, ratusan penunggang motor lain yang menjadi penonton di situ mengerumuni tempat kemalangan sehingga menutup seluruh laluan lebuh raya tersebut

Dilaporkan, kesemua mat rempit yang terlibat dalam insiden ini selamat dan hanya mengalami kecederaan. Kami harap pemandu kereta Proton Exora juga tidak mengalami sebarang kecelakaan.

JB Grocery Store Called Out For Discriminating Against Indians While Giving Out Food Aid

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

A grocery store in Johor was met with controversy after putting up a sign at a food bank that discriminated against Indians

Photos of the sign and the grocery store have been making their rounds on social media.The sign read, "Indians not allowed to take food aid for the time being."

Image via Twitter

Image via Facebook

A video of the store managers being confronted by two Indian men has been circulating on platforms such as WhatsApp

In the viral clip, an Indian man wearing a blue T-shirt can be heard saying, "We received information from the public that there are free food items being given out but it is stated that it is not meant for Indians. It is only for Malays and others. None for Indians. Now we're here to solve the problem."

Image via Facebook

The man then signalled the person behind the camera to focus on a representative from the store. The representative explained, "We serve all members of the community without taking into account race or religion. That's a stand we've taken all this while and before this, a lot of people have come to take items from the food bank. It has never been an issue."The person behind the camera then asked, "Then why did you write that Indians are not allowed?"

Image via Facebook

"There was a mistake there," said another store manager."We had other issues but we apologise and we've removed it, so now anyone is allowed," he added.

Image via Facebook

Following the incident, the Sultan of Johor has issued a statement urging folks to offer aid without discriminating against different races

In a post, the official page of the Sultan of Johor noted, "His Majesty the Sultan of Johor, Sultan Ibrahim Ibni Almarhum Sultan Iskandar has stressed that food aid for those in need must be done sincerely for all, not according to ethnic differences.""His Majesty said that in the current situation, all people have fallen on hard times and are facing unbearable difficulties, regardless of their race or religion," the statement added.They then quoted the Sultan saying, "If you want to help, please be sincere by helping anyone in need. Do not discriminate along ethnic lines."The post then confirmed that Sultan Ibrahim made the following comments in response to the particular incident involving the grocery store.

SULTAN JOHOR: BANTUAN PERLU DILAKUKAN SECARA IKHLAS DAN BUKAN MELIBATKAN ISU PERKAUMAN

DYMM Sultan Johor Sultan Ibrahim...Posted by Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar on Sunday, July 25, 2021

Meanwhile, netizens also called out the grocery store for denying Indian people aid

One person wrote, "I'm sorry? If you really want to help, why does skin colour matter? Disgusting."

Image via Twitter

Another netizen noted, "Pity Indian people. If you're poor, then you'll die."

Image via Twitter

"Some people may have dark skin, others with dark hair, dark eyes and so on. Sadly, sometimes, some people have dark souls," commented a Facebook user.

These Restaurants Are Going Green On GrabFood. Here’s How You Can Support Them

Ever seen this when you order on GrabFood?

Image via SAYS

Grab first introduced this toggle feature to let you opt out of single-use plastic cutlery in November last year. Within just two months, GrabFood saw 84.25% of its customers choose to not use plastic cutlery, which means more and more Malaysians are becoming eco-conscious.

This is just one of the little ways Grab is helping the environment every time someone orders on GrabFood. Recently, Grab has also been encouraging and helping its merchants to go green with their new initiative.

Image via postimg.cc

These days, everyone is talking about sustainability and going green. If you’re not sure where to start, you can actually help the environment by supporting businesses that are eco-conscious. In fact, you can make a difference through small eco-friendly changes like this in your everyday life.The best part is that GrabFood now features 'green merchants', so you can order your favourite food while being good to the environment. Through this green initiative by GrabFood, restaurants are encouraged to do their part in creating a positive impact for the environment. Just click on the ‘Let’s Paint The Earth Green’ banner within the app to see all the restaurants available.On top of that, GrabFood is also offering merchants special prices on eco-packaging, as well as up to 100,00 free eco paper bags to eco merchants. The environmentally friendly food packaging materials are from PXL Marketing via the e-commerce platform, Wooba. The paper bags are also in collaboration with PXL Marketing and manufactured by Packaton using 100% recyclable FSC-certified paper.

Image via SAYS

Going green isn't easy, especially for smaller businesses. Nevertheless, these restaurants have taken extra steps to make it possible.

Whether it's for dine-in or for GrabFood deliveries, restaurants have begun to use sustainable alternatives for take-out bags, takeaway food packaging, and single-use plastic cutlery. Besides that, they are also separating waste for recycling and composting. All these small steps go a long way in making an impact to our environment.

We went to check out one of the local restaurants listed as eco-friendly on the GrabFood app to see it for ourselves

Image via SAYS

One of the local hidden gems in Taman Desa, it might be easy to miss the unassuming Charlie’s Cafe & Bakery. Opened in 2015, this neighbourhood cafe serves up Malaysian comfort food like Nasi Lemak Chicken Chop, Sarawak Laksa, and their signature UFO Tart.According to owner Sonny Tuzan, when he and his wife started Charlie’s Cafe, they knew they wanted to be a social enterprise that could help the community and be a channel of blessing to others.

Image via SAYS

“When Grab lent us a helping hand and provided a better packaging solution, we realised this is one way for us to challenge the community. After 5 years of using plastic, [we wanted to get our customers] to journey with us. We can actually change our mindset and perception about going green,” shared Sonny.

Now, Charlie’s Cafe uses boxes and bowls made of sugarcane pulp, instead of plastic ones, as well as wooden utensils to reduce the use of plastic

Image via SAYS

Takeaway soup and sauces still require plastic lids, because unfortunately there aren’t any affordable sustainable alternatives. However, this is definitely a move in the right direction for Charlie’s Cafe and other eco-friendly merchants on GrabFood.

Trend Merepek Terbaru Budak-Budak Sekarang: Nafkah Couple! Tak Payah Kahwin Pun Dapat Duit

Semua orang pasti tahu apa itu nafkah

Image via Berita Harian

Nafkah ialah mengeluarkan belanja atau sara hidup kepada mereka yang wajib ke atas seseorang suami atau kepada sama ada isteri, anak dan orang-orang yang di bawah tanggungannya. Ia termasuk keperluan tempat tinggal, makanan, pakaian, pendidikan, keagamaan dan perubatan.

Ianya adalah suatu keperluan dan hukumnya adalah wajib buat setiap suami untuk menyediakan nafkah zahir dan batin secukupnya kepada isteri.

Image via Google

Walau bagaimanapun nafkah tidaklah bersifat mutlak kerana setiap orang tidak sama kemampuannya. Ada yang lebih berkemampuan untuk menyediakan kesemua keperluan dan ada juga yang sebaliknya. Apa yang penting adalah suami memberikan komitmen dan menjalankan tanggungjawab tersebut dengan sebaik mungkin dengan kadar yang memberi keselesaan kepada isteri, bukannya kemewahan atau pembaziran yang melampau.

Yang peliknya, pada masa kini, ada satu trend merepek ini iaitu 'nafkah couple' dalam kalangan pasangan muda baru bercinta

Konsep nafkah couple atau kapel ini sama sahaja seperti nafkah suami isteri, yang mana akan diberi setiap bulan dan mengikut kemampuan. Yang membezakannya adalah nafkah kapel ini untuk pasangan kekasih yang belum lepas lafaz akad nikah, maka tiada ikatan yang sah pun.Tular beberapa screenshot perbualan tentang nafkah kapel di laman Twitter.

Image via Twitter

Image via Twitter

Sudah menjadi lumrah media sosial, setiap kali tertularnya perkara baru, pasti akan ada netizen yang mengecam

Image via Twitter

Tidak kurang juga yang gadis-gadis yang mula meminta nafkah kapel dari boyfriend masing-masing. Yang mencari boyfriend pun ada sebab nak nafkah kapel!

Image via Twitter

Sebenarnya tidak dapat dipastikan samada 'nafkah kapel' ini benar-benar wujud dan sudah menjadi trend atau sekadar gurauan dalam kalangan pasangan bercinta.
Tapi kalau betul, tolonglah stop. Merepeknya alahai.
