"Penyeluk Saku Boleh Minum Kopi Lepas Mencuri" - Lelaki Ini Kongsi Pengalaman Di Paris

Sebut sahaja tentang percutian romantik, automatik akan terfikirkan Kota Paris. Mana tidaknya, Paris merupakan lokasi berbulan madu dan pilihan hampir setiap pasangan yang baru mahupun yang sudah lama mendirikan rumahtangga.

Ya, betul. Kota Paris memang nampak begitu cantik dan unik tambahan pula dengan adanya Eiffel Tower yang wajib menjadi 'background' gambar setiap orang yang berkunjung ke sana. Sama juga seperti pelancong asing yang datang ke Malaysia dan ingin menangkap gambar dengan latar belakang KLCC.

Memang tidak dapat dinafikan, pemandangan di Kota Paris ini sesungguhnya boleh dipuji. Tambahan pula ketika waktu malam menjelma, dengan lampu yang menerangi Eiffel Tower membuatkan pemandangan bertambah cantik.

Namun begitu, ada cerita lain di sebalik kecantikan Kota Paris yang dikagumi ramai ini. Ianya telah dikongsi oleh seorang pengguna Facebook iaitu Wazli Watisin.

Baca perkongsian penuh beliau di bawah:

PARIS: Kota Cinta Yang Memperdaya.Kota Paris yang terkenal dengan menara eiffel, kononnya lambang cinta dan romantik. Itu mungkin pendapat sesetengah orang, bagi aku itu hanyalah sebuah metos. Realitinya kota paris adalah kota penuh tipu daya.Bagi aku kota Paris bukan tempat yang selamat, jauh sekali dengan istilah bersih. Paris sebenarnya dipenuhi sampah dan berbau hancing. Romantik tang mana pun aku tidak tahu, mungkin lain orang lain seleranya.Pengalaman aku bermusafir di kota paris bukan sesuatu yang positif. Keluar sahaja dari airport Ch De Gaulle, aku terus disajikan dengan bau hancing kencing manusia di merata-rata kawasan metro (keretapi). Aku juga dihidangkan dengan pemandangan longgokan sampah sarap sepanjang menaiki metro selama beberapa hari di paris.

Image via Wazli Watisin / Facebook

Menurut gambar di atas, yang basah-basah tu semua kencing manusia sebenarnya. Stesen2 kereta api sini tiada tandas, kotor dan berbau. Kau tengok pun ada muncul rasa seram, stesen kereta api di KL 30 kali ganda lebih cantik.

Bukan itu sahaja, dia juga 'dicopet' ketika berada di Kota Paris ini

Lagi sadis, aku dicopet di kota ini. Penyeluk saku di kota ini diiktiraf di antara terbaik dunia. Aku tidak bersedia sampai tahap dunia masa tu, kerana aku juga pernah sampai di kawasan eropah timur yang dianggap jenayah tertinggi. Tiada pula aku mengalami peristiwa ngeri. Jibai punya penyangak... Minta2 ko cirit birit makan hasil duit aku tu. Lagi bagus kalau buasir sekali..(Alhamdulillah kerana hatiku tergerak untuk menginsurankan semua yang aku bawa). P/s: Pada rakan-rakan yang ingin mengembara, belilah insuran sebagai penyejuk hati yang lara jika ada apa2 yang berlaku diluar jangkaan.

Lebih mengeruhkan keadaan, tiada langsung anggota polis yang ada ketika itu. Malah, penyeluk saku juga boleh 'minum kopi' selepas menyeluk saku. Hebat sungguh Kota Paris ini.

Yang lebih sadis, kita tidak akan nampak seorang polis pun di tempat-tempat jenayah ni. Penyeluk saku boleh minum2 kopi selepas meyeluk. Tak perlu tenaga untuk melarikan diri. Lagi satu, pengalaman aku berurusan dengan balai polis sini macam berurusan dengan negara ketiga. Memang sangat sadis, siap polis terima report masa office hour sahaja. Kepala bejambul betul, ingat jenayah ni berlaku office hour ja ka?Jangan cerita nak buat report dulu la, nak masuk sampai kaunter balai dia pun sesusah menembusi kubu hitler. Berlapis-lapis jeriji besi yang perlu dilalui, dan kau akan menempuhi soal siasat melalui interkom dalam bahasa yang sangat sukar difahami. Sejam baru tembus kaunter la kawan...tu pun kalau tembus lah. Masa ini lah aku sangat bersyukur hidup di malaysia, terima kasih sahabat2 polis kita.

Image via Wazli Watisin / Facebook

Menurut gambar di atas, balai polis ni hanya dibuka 8 jam sehari je...jangan kan buat report, masuk pun gagal. Bila kami tekan interkom, cakap nak buat report, terus dia tutup lampu satu balai. Bila kami beredar dalam seratus meter, sekali aku toleh, dia on balik lampu. Tak ke celaka perangai tu... Aku terus patah balik dan bercakap pada interkom. Polis tu cakap dorang kerja office hour je. Terpaksa cari balai lain keesokan harinya. Gila punya negara maju. Jem otak memikir.

Rusuhan juga kerap berlaku di Kota Paris ini terutama pada hujung minggu. Bahaya untuk pelancong luar.

Kota paris ni dipenuhi dengan Orang 'gipsy' yang menyamar kononya orang syiria. Kalimah syahadah pun tak tau. Muka macam mat salleh juga, tapi ada air muka ala2 viking. Mereka buat pelbagai cara penipuan, target utama adalah pelancong.Rusuhan di sini juga kerap berlaku, terutamanya hujung minggu. Dorang suka bakar2. Semua benda mau dibakar, terutamanya kereta polis. Nasib kami baik, selepas melawat tugu apa ntah nama, terus berlaku rusuhan yang sangat teruk. Abis semua dia bakar.

Kalau tiada hal mustahak, maaf la, Kota Paris bukan pilihanku lagi. Biarlah Malaysia 'mundur' kalau inilah cerminan negara 'maju'. Banyak lagi kota negara eropah yang cantik dan selamat selain Paris.

Eiffel tower lambang kota paris. Dan tidak dinafikan, kalau sampah dan penyamun tiada di kota paris, kota ini memang menjadi pilihan. Lupa... Polis 'rajin' sikit lagi.

Padah Kurang Kalsium & Malas Gosok Gigi, Kanak-Kanak 6 Tahun Ini Hilang Semua Gigi

Soal kebersihan dan kesihatan gigi anak-anak, ibu bapa memainkan peranan yang penting untuk mendidik akan kepentingan dua perkara tersebut

Namun, ada juga yang mengabaikan faktor kebersihan gigi dan akhirnya menyebabkan kesihatan gigi anak-anak mereka semakin merosot. Makanan atau minuman yang manis juga harus diambil secara bersederhana. Kandungan gula yang berlebihan dalam makanan atau minuman akan menyebabkan gigi rosak. Jika berlebihan pasti akan memudaratkan.

Menerusi Facebook, seorang lelaki yang dikenali sebagai Atuk Limie Mohamad telah berkongsi tentang gigi anaknya yang berusia enam tahun terpaksa dicabut semua akibat kerosakan yang teruk dan gusi yang bengkak

Menurut beliau, gigi anaknya rosak akibat kuat minum manis dan malas menggosok gigi. Namun, kesakitan itu berakhir apabila kesemua gigi kanak-kanak berkenaan dicabut.

Alhamdullilah.. Hannan Selamat dah buang semua gigi.. Skrg dia dah separuh sedar... Doktor kejut gok.. biasa org lain tidur 3-4jam. Terima kasih semua sahabat berkat Doa Semua.#Makluman pada yg shareGigi rosak bukan sebab kuat makan coklat. Anak saya ni kurang calsium lepas susu ibu dia tak minum susu. Dan kuat milo dan malas gosok gigi. Kalau punca coklat 2 Org lagi abg dan kak dia akan terima nasib yg sama.Pada semua yang PM saya. Maaf saya tak sempat nak jawab semua msg anda.Tp saya jawab bila free. Dibawah ni saya sertakan kronologi anak saya.

Pada masa itu, gigi geraham anaknya sudah kelihatan seperti kawah gunung berapi kerana berlubang, oleh itu pembedahan harus dijalankan secepat mungkin

Kerosakkan gigi Hannan bukan berpunca dari kuat makan gula-gula. Punca utama Hannan selepas 2tahun susu ibu. Hannan tidak lagi minum susu. Sebaliknya dia lebih suka minum milo. Dan lambat lepa.. kopi Abi dia pun dia minum. Kekurangan Calsium gigi bercampur malas gosok gigi punca utama kerosakkan gigi Hannan.4 TahunMasuk umur 4tahun. Hannan pernah buat pemeriksaan gigi di klinik swasta. Doctor hanya bagi ubat tahan sakit.5 TahunBerumur pertengahan 5 Tahun. Boleh dikatakan setiap minggu Hannan Sakit gigi sampai tak boleh tidur… skali lagi buat pemeriksaan klinik swasta. Kali ni kesan kerosakkan lebih besar… gigi graham dia telah rosak dan berlubang. Menyebabkan gusi bengkak. Pada masa yg sama.. gigi depan juga sudah rosak menyebabkan nafas berbau. Kami minta Doktor buang. Tapi dinasihatkan biar gigi susu tercabut sendiri. Dan doktor hanya bagi ubat tahan sakit yg mampu bertahan seminggu.November tahun 2017 skali lagi kami ke klinik pemeriksaan. Masa ni gusi Hannan dah bengkak dan dia sendiri tidak selesa.. dgn selalu meludah mungkin sebab gusinya bengkak.Doctor nasihatkan kami pergi ke klinik kerajaan. Kerana umur hannan baru 5tahun dan ada risiko utk buat di klinik swasta. (Risiko blaje besor kikiki, Moga kite rakyat yang membayar cukai..kite cari Hospital kerajaan).Permulaan kami pergi ke klinik gigi 1Malaysia. Utk buat pemeriksaan. (Doctor baru) . Doctor cadangankan bertahan dgn ubat tahan sakit dahulu.. utk cuba rawat gusi dan tahan sakit gigi. Keadaan masih tidak berubah. Hanya bertahan satu @ minggu sahaja.Selepas sebulan Kami pergi lagi buat pemeriksaan. Kali ni Doctor klinik 1Malaysia cadangkan tunggu sehingga umur 6 Tahun utk temu janji cabut gigi.

6TahunKami kena datang skali lagi ke klinik 1Malaysia utk buat pemeriksaan dan temu janji. Alhamdullilah walaupun doctor lain.. tp rekod Hannan sudah ada.. hanya sambung kes.. dan buat temu janji dgn pakar utk rujuk ke hospital besar kuala terengganu. Pertengahan January kami dapat date utk temu janji di hospital besar. Datang utk pemeriksaan skali lagi oleh pakar. Dan pada mulanya dicadangkan utk cabut mana gigi yg rosak. (Cuma tinggal 3btg sahaja gigi depan yang elok). Skali lagi diberi tahu utk temu janji cabut gigi Hannan perlu tunggu 3 hingga 6 bulan. Erkkk lamanya… Tp sebenarnya perkara biasa kerajaan sebab kena selesai kes terawal.. Pihak hospital akan call bila tarikh yg ada.Selepas 2minggu buat pemeriksaan pakar. Alhamdullilah dapat panggilan dari Hospital bagi date 21hb febuary boleh datang ke hospital utk pemeriksaan bius. Dan 22hb feb Hannan dapat date pembedahan. Alhamdullilah. Bagi tahu Hannan Esok nok cabut Gigi. Suka dia dgr

22 Feb. 201810.45 pagi Hannan Dibawa ke bilik bedah.11.15 pagi Hannan diminta doctor utk meniup belong (bukan belong sebenarnya bius yg diletakkan dimulut). Dlm 5minit Hannan mula tidur.. Dan saya diminta mencium anak dan dikehendaki tunggu diluar.

Sebelum masuk bilik bedah, hannan perlu berpuasa selama 12 jam. Air masak pun tidak dibenarkan minum sehingga selesai pembedahan.

12.30 Saya dipanggil dan diberitahu pembedahan dah selesai. Hannan dikeluarkan dari bilik pembedahan. Semasa berbincang dgn doctor keadaan semasa Hannan. Tiba tiba dia buka mata dgr apa saya bincangkan dgn doctor.. eh! Terkejut… sepatutya dia masih tidur. Memandangkan dia sedar.. saya tanya dia “Sakit dok Hannan?” Dia hanya hilingkan kepala tanda tidak sakit. Perjelasan Doctor dia cabut semua gigi sebab 1. Gigi rosak teruk, 2.Gigi depan dia dah nak keluar gigi kekal dan dah bergoyang.1.00pm Hannan di pindahkan ke Wad untuk rehat. Masa ni dia tak tidur.. cuma asyik salin kapas mulut utk buang darah.

1.30pm Nurse datang hantarkan Milo ais dan Ais kosong. (Lupa nak bagi tahu. Hannan kena puasa dari 12malam hingga selesai pembedahan. Air masak juga dilarang minum pada masa ni. Jadi dari 9.30 mlm sebelum hingga 1.30pm Hannan tidak minum dan makan).

1.30-4.00 Masih menunggu pengesahan Doctor utk pulang.4.30 Alhamdullilah dibenarkan pulang dan Hannan berada dlm keadaan sihat seperti biasa.Perjalanan Pulang. Permintaan pertama Hannan aiscream, dan saya ajak dia makan roti utk alas perut. Habis sebijik telur separuh masak dan roti sekeping.. berselera macam dok sakit.

Alhamdullilah Selesai masalah gigi Hannan.Berkenaan bayaranSaya update sedikit yg bertanya kos rawatanUtk klinik swasta skali rawatan antara RM40-RM55.Klinik 1Malaysia RM1.00 setiap kali rawatan.Hospital Besar Pakar RM18.00 (jika kakitangan kerajaan Percuma @ Maybe RM1.00).Harap penulisan saya ni mudah faham.. sebab sambil menulis ni.. sambil jawab msg yg pertanyaan.

Semoga adik hannan dapat mengamalkan penjagaan gigi selepas ini! Apa sahaja diambil secara berlebihan pasti akan memudaratkan. Diharapkan semua dapat mengambil iktibar dari apa yang berlaku kepada adik hannan ya! :)

7 Things We Could Turn That Bukit Nanas Secret Tunnel Into

Malaysians woke up to the discovery of a secret tunnel in Bukit Nanas that used to house weapons, food, and treasure this morning

Image via worldcdn.net

Part of a secret tunnel, believed to be centuries old, stretching from Bukit Nanas to the Klang river bank has been found.

        thestar.com.my

Traces of an ancient tunnel dating back to the Battle of Klang between Raja Mahadi and Tengku Kudin over tax disputes about 147 years ago was unearthed during slope reparation works on Bukit Nanas here.

        malaysiandigest.com

The discovery of the 10-metre tunnel, used to store weapons, food and treasures, was made six months ago by a contractor hired by Kuala Lumpur City Hall during works to rectify a collapsed slope.

        thestar.com.my

The Mandahiling community populated the hill, known as Bukit Gombak initially, in the mid 19th century. It housed Godang Palace owned by Tuanku Raja Asal or Ja Asai at its peak. During the Klang war, the Mandahiling people planted many pineapples there, hence the name Bukit Nanas now, and dug secret tunnels used to store weapons, food and treasures. The tunnels were also used as strategic posts and escape routes for the Mandahiling to launch surprise attacks or escape from their enemies.

        thestar.com.my

The government announced that the tunnel will be turned into a tourist attraction but here at SAYS, we think there might be better options that Malaysians will look into if given the chance...

Image via The Star

Federal Territories and Urban Wellbeing Minister Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor said local authorities have agreed to preserve the site as a tourist attraction. "The site has been studied by the Malaysia History Association, Selangor and Kuala Lumpur branch. "Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) and the Peninsula Malaysia Forestry Department will preserve the site for tourists to visit," Tengku Adnan said when officiating the completion ceremony of Bukit Nanas slope reparation works.

        malaysiandigest.com

1. A shortcut. For Malaysian motorists who are nimble enough to squeeze through an opening like this, the tunnel can be an awesome exit route to escape from road blocks and traffic jams.

Image via coloribus.com

2. A giant drain. The tunnel may also be used as a giant longkang, to siphon sewage water away...

Image via panoramio.com

3. Turn it into a secret hideout. Some Malaysian vigilantes would start using the tunnels as a secret hideout and give it a funky name

Image via blogspot.com

Keluang Man in his "Kluang Station". Get it?

4. Turn it into a housing area. Taman Terowong Jaya (pending approval from DBKL of course). Your beautiful, private underground getaway in the bustling city of KL with three-tier security and just enough standing room for an adult.

Image via wordpress.com

5. Use it as a site for 'Escape Room'. The Tunnel of No Return. Escape from 10 metres of darkness, bats and creepy tunnel trolls

Image via tripadvisor.com

6. Unique makan places. Food lovers are not left out either, as hipster cafes or mamaks will sprout up in the terowong. Hey, even the recently evicted Line Clear Nasi Kandar guys from Penang can set up shop inside!

Image via greenprophet.com

7. Turn it into a giant slide. Theme park operators may also seize the opportunity to turn it into a water park ride, with a giant swimming pool waiting for thrillseekers at the end

What would YOU do in a tunnel like that?

Rally highlights: Indelible ink reports, 50,000 volunteers, and 'Pecat SPR'

Image via themalaysianinsider.com

The coalition also wants voters to lodge reports against the EC forusing indelible ink that can be washed off immediately after the May 5 general elections, despite claims that it was introduced to prevent possible double voting.

        themalaysianinsider.com

When Anwar called for a show of hands, to see who would follow his footsteps in lodging the report, almost the entire field was filled with hands raised in agreement, stating they would do as he asked.

        malaysiandigest.com

“Our lawyers have advised us that if this is truly the people’s uprising, there must be tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands reports lodged to the police complaining about the (alleged) electoral fraud, in particular the (in)delible ink.

        fz.com

Bersih co-chair Datuk Ambiga Sreenevasan and PKR strategy chief Rafizl Ramli led the calls for the entire EC to step down after complaints about the  indelible ink, introduced in Election 2013 to prevent double voting, could be easily washed off.

Pakatan Rakyat (PR) wants to sign up some 500,000 volunteers to protest at the Election Commission (EC) offices until the members resign in favour of replacements who report directly to parliament.

        themalaysianinsider.com

The rally also witnessed the launch of the ‘Suara Rakyat 505’ Facebook page, set up by SAMM, which aims to get at least 500,000 volunteers to support its cause.

        malaysiandigest.com

“The moment we have 500,000 volunteers we will tell you of our next step. Whatever it is, we call for the abolishment of EC and for the EC leadership to step down!” Che’Gu Bard said.

And now, here comes another unusual form of dining for the curious foodie: a pop-up menu that travels from one restaurant to another!

Image via Instagram @popupdiningkl

1. So, what is a pop-up restaurant exactly?

Image via Unilever Food Solutions

Pop-up restaurants allow chefs - both aspiring and professional - to open their own restaurants without the typical constraints typically associated with permanent, brick-and-mortar establishments.A particular concept within the pop-up restaurant industry is the "restaurant-within-restaurant," where chefs rent out portions of existing restaurants for an evening to open their multi-course pop-up.

        popuprepublic.com

2. Whoa, way cool! Anyone doing this in KL?

Image via emilychoong.com

Check out Pop Up Dining KL, a collaboration between three young chefs to share their passion for food at cosy, pop-up venues. It is almost as if they are ninjas appearing whenever they so please to serve a fine dinner for private guests, and once they leave, they disappear with the night till the next session.

        emilychoong.com

3. Who are the masterminds behind Pop Up Dining KL?

Image via Eunice's Euphoria

Head chef Daniel Yap bounces ideas off partners Miki Lie and Amanda Huang in coming up with a memorable meal for the guests. Occasional guest chefs join in the fun in crafting the menu. Graduating from ALMA International School of Italian Cuisine, Daniel's culinary experience includes staging at Piccolo Lago, one of Italy's 2 Michelin Star restaurants. Miki and Amanda are part of the IMI University Centre alumni, with Miki having staged at the award-winning Nahm in Thailand.

4. How did their pop-up idea, erm, pop up?

Image via meh.com

Daniel returned home from Parma with a head full of menu ideas, looking to host guests hungry for top-notch Italian cuisine. Joining forces with Miki and Amanda, there was only one issue left for this compact kitchen team: space. After getting in touch with potential venues, they got their first greenlight from Jaslyn Cakes Bangsar, and never looked back.

5. How does it work?

Image via Instagram @popupdiningkl

There is no fixed schedule, which makes the chase for dinner all the more fun! The menu is ever-changing, and they pop up at different locations around Klang Valley. You can stalk Pop Up Dining KL on Instagram to find out what's on the menu, as well as when and where they'll be serving at next. Seats are limited, so if you're keen to join in on a particular night, get in touch with them to reserve your seats.

6. Where do they usually pop up at?

Image via DIDA

After a few pop-ups at Jaslyn Cakes Bangsar, they also hosted dinner at a private house in Bangsar called Sebelas. A few cafes have started approaching them to host pop-up dinners at their space too, which led them to host meals at cafes like Chinatown's Einstein Cafe.

7. Let's get to the good stuff! What's on the menu?

Image via Pop Up Dining KL/Facebook

Snacks include the carefully-concocted Cinnamon Egg Pudding, served with Parmigiano cracker and an Italian breadstick.

Image via Eunice's Euphoria

Bagna Cauda 'Banana' remains as one of the favourite Antipasto platters. The Italian dish's unique component is the fondue-like sauce, traditionally made of salted anchovies, garlic and olive oil. The dish is made even more outstanding here with the added banana and cream for a touch of sweetness.

Image via Eunice's Euphoria

Then there's the picture-perfect Chicken Leg Confit in Onion Bowl, served on a bed of 200°C rock salt.

8. What can sweet tooths look forward to?

Image via Instagram @fujunn

Coffee fans will probably relish the artistically-constructed Tiramisu Forest.

Image via Instagram @popupdiningkl

Fancy lemon served three ways? Try a jar of lemon mascarpone, lemon sponge cake, and mint gel lemon meringue.

Image via Pop Up Dining KL/Facebook

Here's the brown butter cake soaked in carrot syrup, served with sweet carrot puree, carrot peels, candied sweet potato, and white chocolate.

9. Is it halal?

Image via Eunice's Euphoria

The menu is pork-free. Some dishes do contain alcohol, however, but you can let the chefs know to leave it out of your dishes.

10. What's the best way to get in touch with them?

Court Calls Off Death Penalty For M'sian Who Smuggled 500G Of Drugs Into Singapore

A Malaysian man escaped a death sentence when the Singaporean Court of Appeal decided to acquit him on Tuesday, 13 October, of a charge for being a drug courier

According to The Straits Times, the court found there were sufficient grounds that the accused, Beh Chew Boo, was not completely aware that he was committing a crime when he was arrested for being in possession of 499.97g of methamphetamine at Woodlands Checkpoint, Singapore in 2016.The 38-year-old was sentenced to death in January this year by the country's High Court.

Chief Justice Sundaresh Menon and Judges of Appeal Tay Yong Kwang and Steven Chong found that there was insufficient evidence to prove that Beh knew that he was transporting drugs

He was arrested on 26 October 2016 while trying to cross the causeway when Police Constable Israel Rajan stopped him for a routine immigration check.Beh and his girlfriend were riding a motorcycle that was owned by his friend and former colleague, Lew Shyang Huei, who Beh told the court he often borrowed the motorcycle from to enter Singapore as the toll fees were cheaper.The policeman found several packages of a crystalline substance inside the storage compartment of the motorcycle and immediately arrested the duo. Investigations later confirmed the substance was methamphetamine.

When questioned, Beh said that he did not know the drugs were in the motorcycle and also denied that they were his

He also claimed that he did not know the contents of the packages until they were opened.However, Beh admitted that he recognised the drugs that were seized as he had consumed 'yao tou wan' (the Chinese term for meth) a few days before at a party hosted by his friend, Lew.

Judge of Appeal Tay said there were factors to the case that justified Beh's acquittal and the court convicted him of the charge accordingly

Investigations found that Lew's fingerprints and DNA were found on the interior and exterior of the packages, but none from Beh was found."Lew was linked inextricably to the drug bundles in the motorcycle. Only his DNA was on the drug bundles, a fact which the prosecution accepted as suggesting that Lew was the person who packed the drugs," said Tay."In the unique circumstances here, we are of the view that Beh's account was not inherently incredible," he added.

Even though he was acquitted, Beh will continue to be in remand until the court decides to proceed with four other charges related to the case

Meanwhile, Lew had been arrested and sentenced in July 2018 to seven years in prison for unrelated drug charges. He was not called to testify at Beh's trial.

A Malaysian flight attendant, who was caught smuggling millions of dollars worth of heroin in her underwear, was also shown leniency in Australia:

When he made an appearance on CNN's current affair talk show 'Fareed Zakaria Global Public Square (GPS)', Microsoft founder Bill Gates had 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) in mind

Aside from interviewing Gates about inequality, his charity, and global warming, CNN host Fareed Zakaria asked the business magnate for a book recommendation."My book would be 'Billion Dollar Whale,'" Gates answered during the segment on 17 February, according to Malay Mail.

"It's a sad story of corruption in international finance but fascinating," Gates said of the book chronicling the 1MDB scandal by Wall Street Journal's Tom Wright and Bradley Hope.

"A wonderful read. Very quick and thrilling," he said, before comparing it to 'Bad Blood', a book by John Carreyrou about multibillion-dollar biotech startup Theranos.According to the philanthropist's Goodreads profile, he started reading Billion Dollar Whale on 26 January and completed it in two days.Soon after, Wright posted a video of the interview with Gates on Instagram and thanked the Microsoft founder for his support.

According to Wright, Gates' recommendation single-handedly caused sales of the book to skyrocket in a day

Hilarious Photos Show Taal Volcano Survivors Making The Most Out Of Donated Clothes

Following the Taal Volcano eruption in the Philippines last week, thousands were forced to leave their homes and stay at evacuation centres

Donors decided to help by sending them clothes to wear, as many of the locals' homes and crops were covered in ash.

Although some of the donated items seemed rather "inappropriate", the evacuees have apparently taken it all in stride and even had some fun with it

Several were seen wearing wedding outfits and gowns.

Did You Know You Can Actually UNDO A Sent E-Mail In Gmail?

What, undo "Send" in Gmail? Sounds rather impossible thing to do, right? Well, yeah, but Google has made this possible.

When you send a no-take-backs email—maybe an admission to a secret crush, or accidental reply-all—there's an instant pang of regret. It feels like there's no going back.

        mashable.com

Meet Gmail's Undo Send feature, a lifesaving little hack buried in the Gmail Labs settings. It gives you a 10-second window to "undo" sending an outgoing email. You just have to enable it first.

        slate.com

Undo a sent e-mail in Gmail
Image via freeimageslive.co.uk

After enabling the feature, Undo Send works much like Gmail’s other “undo” features. When you send an email, you get a message confirming it has been sent, along with a link to “Undo." This message lasts for 10 seconds, at which point you lose the opportunity to take it back.

        mashable.com

So, do you wanna know how it works?

Image via replygif.net

Okay, no need to get all worked up! Here's the step 1. Click the gear icon in the top right corner of your Gmail window and select Settings from the dropdown menu.

Image via businessinsider.com

Step 2. Select Labs from the row of tabs.

Image via businessinsider.com

Step 3. Scroll all the way to the bottom where you see Undo Send and click Enable.

Image via businessinsider.com

Step 4. Hit Save Changes at the bottom and breathe easy.

Image via giphy.com

But wait.. there's more to it. The next step is to customize Undo Send's duration.

By default, Gmail gives you a 10-second window of time in which you may undo a sent e-mail. You can change that to five, 20 or 30 seconds by going to Settings and finding the Undo Send section inside the "General" tab.

        businessinsider.com

Image via mshcdn.com

Go to Settings > General > Undo Send, and select a cancellation period up to 30 seconds. There you can enable or disable Undo Send and change the duration with a drop-down selection box as pictured above.

        slate.com

Now when you send an email, the yellow dialogue that displays "Your message has been sent" will also give you the option to Undo. Click it, and the email will reopen, un-sent, in the composition window.

Image via businessinsider.com

Note that you can hit "Z" on your keyboard, the Gmail shortcut for undo. Just don't navigate away from or close this page, because once you do, you'll lose the opportunity to undo your sent message forever.

People are happy to queue up for an hour or two to chow on fresh dim sum here but don't be surprised, there are only 25 items in their humble menu

The menu at Tim Ho Wan Malaysia
Image via SAYS.com

Is there anything special or different about their dim sum? Well for starters, they're not pre-steamed so dishes are freshly made to order. They observe a no-reservations policy so it's first-come, first-served basis, BUT...

For the restaurant's first time, the upper floor at Tim Ho Wan Malaysia accommodates private dining in a more intimate setting, where you are allowed to make a reservation and even given a 'private menu'.

Okay, let's cut down on small talk and get to the mains... Here are Tim Ho Wan's 'Big 4 Heavenly Kings' and four more dishes we tried at our first visit:

The 'Big 4 Heavenly Kings' - yes, the Chinese have a habit of glorifying their dishes with over-the-top names...

1. Tim Ho Wan's famous for a really good reason baked bun with BBQ pork: RM10.80 for three

Image via SAYS.com

If there's ONE thing you must try as a newbie at Tim Ho Wan, it's their baked bun with BBQ pork or more commonly known here as char siew pau or 'polo pau'. The bun is coated with an exceptionally light, crumbly shell that opens up into a generously filled helping of yummy caramelised pork. When you're enjoying the bun fresh from the kitchen, your plate littered with crumbs shouldn't bother you too much.

3. Steamed spinach dumpling with shrimp: RM7.80

4. Pan fried carrot cake: RM9.80

If you're a fan of carrot cake and have tried many variations in Malaysia, the texture of Tim Ho Wan's carrot cake will surprise you. It's really soft, perhaps too soft?

5. Vermicelli roll with pig's liver: RM10.80

6. Wasabi salad prawn dumpling: RM10.80

It may look like you have to be a wasabi fan or someone with a tongue of steel to withstand that much wasabi paste, but don't be fooled - it's not spicy and there is no sting that shoots up your nose.

Did you know: Tim Ho Wan is the world's cheapest Michelin-starred restaurant. It was founded by Mak Kwai Pui, a former chef at Four Seasons Hong Kong.

Image via scmp.com

From the outside, Tim Ho Wan looks like any other nondescript dim sum canteen in the city's traffic-choked Mong Kok district. But there is one marked difference: Michelin reviewers have awarded it a coveted one-star rating, netting it the auspicious title of cheapest Michelin-starred restaurant in the world.

        telegraph.co.uk

Image via wordpress.com

Owner Mak Kwai Pui, ex head dim sum chef at the Four Seasons hotel’s Lung King Heen restaurant, launched a mini-revolution when he opened his first Tim Ho Wan in 2009 – offering high-quality food at reasonable prices. Awarded a Michelin star in 2010, the queues at Mak’s first restaurant were notorious, with people waiting a couple of hours or more for a table. Since then, things have settled down, though you should still expect to wait at peak hours. He now runs four Tim Ho Wans (spiralling rent forced another, in Mong Kok – also with one Michelin star – to close in early 2013) – in Central, North Point and Tai Kok Tsui’s Olympian City, as well as the original restaurant – still going strong – in Sham Shui Po.

MAS Reveals What Went On Behind Heated Videos Of Their Staff And Passengers Arguing

Earlier this week, a video showing a group of passengers arguing with a team of MAS' Customer Service Agents at the KLIA transit counter went viral on Facebook. As seen in the video, there were expletives exchanged between the passengers and MAS staff:

<Reader Contribution>"A video of a group of Indians scolding a KLIA counter staff. I'm not racially profiling, but Indian tourists are generally very demanding. Malaysian airports, customs and immigration treat tourists much better than their Indian counterparts. My personal experience." #TrueOrNotPosted by Talk Cock Singapore on Thursday, May 7, 2015

It was initially believed that the incident happened in Singapore.

Today, 7 May 2015, MAS released an official statement regarding the incident that, according to the statement, occurred on 1 May. The statement, posted on Malaysia Airlines' FB page, reads:

"A team of Malaysia Airlines’ Customer Service Agents were attending to 30 connecting passengers from Singapore to Hyderabad and Bangalore on 1 May 2015 at the KL International Airport (KLIA) transit counter.The passengers were originally booked on MH616 (from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur) when immediate technical rectification work needed to be carried out on the aircraft. They were then transferred to a later flight on MH610 (Singapore to Kuala Lumpur), in which the 30 passengers missed their various connecting flights at KLIA."

The statement further states that:

"The airline had in advance, prepared hotel accommodation as well as transportation required, for the affected passengers and rebooked them on the next available flights. However, the passengers demanded to be transferred onto their scheduled connecting flight to Hyderabad and Bangalore, all of which by then had already departed KLIA. These passengers also demanded to be rebooked on another carrier based in KLIA2."

On what caused the heated verbal exchange, MAS says:

"Due to immigration requirements, some of the passengers were denied entry into Malaysia without prior Visa application, hence this has limited Malaysia Airlines’ ability to facilitate the second demand. This resulted in the ensuing strong verbal exchanges."

Later its Duty Manager stepped in to calm the passengers

"Upon being alerted of the commotion, the airline’s Duty Manager stepped in to calm the passengers and explained the situation, then later proceeded to make arrangements that were within Malaysia Airlines’ capacity. The affected passengers finally acceded to the arrangement made by the Duty Manager, after which, they boarded their flight to their intended destinations the next day."

Considering the seriousness of the matter, an internal investigation has been carried out by MAS. "Whilst the airline has high regards to the code of conduct of its employees, the airline does not condone abusive behaviours by passengers," reads the statement.


Autistic Adults Share What It's Like Navigating University & The Challenges They Face

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

In conjunction with Autism Awareness Month, we asked two young adults on the autism spectrum to share about their experiences in university and how it may differ from others

Image for illustration purposes only.

Here's what they said:

SAYS: Tell us a little bit about yourself

Fared: Hello! My name is Fared Unang Nad, and I am turning 27 this April. I have a degree in English for Professional Communication from UiTM, and I was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) at the age of 22, while I was still in the middle of college.I am currently a full-time freelancer, and I do contract work as a narrative designer in game development, while doing illustration work on the side.Claire (name changed for privacy purposes): Hi, I'm a 2D artist who is currently pursuing a Diploma in Mass Communications in a private college. I'll be turning 21 later this year.I've never gone through an official diagnosis due to my parents and the primitive state of Malaysia's psychiatrists. However, I'd say I came to the firm conclusion that I'm autistic when I was 16.On a side note, I would like to destigmatise my neurodivergent* self-diagnosis. Many people do not have access to good psychiatrists for a formal diagnosis.  All we have are our painful years of lived experience. However, after pinpointing that I'm autistic, life became a lot better because I was able to find and use resources to help manage myself better.

Image via mrsiraphol/Freepik

SAYS: Have you ever done any kind of therapy? If so, what type and how did it help?

Fared: I have done cognitive behavioural therapy* for multiple mental ailments and neurodivergence. I am also medicated for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).Thankfully, I have made considerable progress in my mental health and disability journey that I no longer need as frequent therapy sessions with my psychotherapist, and have a set prescription with my psychiatrist.My therapy sessions are now on a case-by-case basis and my medication is in steady supply thanks to government subsidies due to my Social Welfare Department-issued persons with disabilities (OKU) card.Claire: I've never done autism-related therapy, but I've done cognitive behavioural therapy and other types of therapy for depression and anxiety. I'd say therapy helped me reframe thoughts on self-deprecation, social anxiety, and the "what if they all hate me" thoughts. A lot of autistic and neurodivergent people experience anxiety due to living our whole lives not fitting in and being hated for not fitting in.I still go to therapy, but not very much anymore because of how busy I am.

SAYS: How has university been so far?

Fared: I've graduated now, but I remember struggling with the pace of tertiary education. The most stressful part of achieving my degree was certainly the fact that there was too much to do with so little time.Thankfully, my lecturers are very understanding of my needs as a mentally disabled and neurodivergent student, and were very accommodating. They gave me some leniency for attendance so that I could pace myself accordingly. I was present at classes only mostly for presentations and assignment-based work.Claire: I used to go to an art college to study illustration. In art school, the students were great, I made friends who didn't mind that I was socially illiterate. For the first time, I was in an educational environment I was socially happy in. However, the workload made me decide to quit as it took a toll on my mental and physical health.At my current college though, there hasn't been anyone I've clicked with, or liked. There's only one guy that I'm sort of friends with, but he's more than an acquaintance and not quite at that friend level yet. Most people here are near insufferable, they have a lack of self awareness and critical thinking that makes me hesitant to befriend them and frustrated when working in group projects with them.I'm doing pretty well academically; I'm a couple semesters away from graduating and I have a CGPA of 3.46. But what stresses me out most is all the social and people stuff. People here are so different. They're painfully neurotypical*, if that makes any sense.

Image via Academia Digital

SAYS: Do you find yourself feeling "different" from your neurotypical peers? Or is it just the same?

Fared: Very much so. In fact, I even feel different among my fellow neurodivergent peers because, that's just it, we're all not the same. As someone who experiences psychosis symptoms too, I do a lot of masking* because it can be quite challenging to navigate certain interactions.Regardless, there is a clear divide in my fundamental understanding of the world in comparison to my assumed neurotypical peers.Claire: All the damn time. There's not one moment that I'm allowed the leisure to forget that I'm different. At its worst, I feel subhuman in comparison to them. Back in art college, I didn't have to be afraid of my lack of social and neurotypical understanding though. In my new one, I have to mask a lot.

SAYS: A large part of university is doing group assignments, which may be difficult for autistic individuals. How has group work been like for you?

Fared: I believe most of my issues with group work do not come directly from my differences as an autistic individual, but rather from lack of cooperation from groupmates. This is due to the fact that I cannot engage with classroom politics as much, and I tend to get grouped with the rest of the class who have no specific cliques.Unfortunately, this also usually means that I am paired with the least cooperative groupmates, in which I have to compensate for their lack of work ethics in creating a deliverable assignment.Claire: Absolutely terrible. I've somehow been cursed with the reputation of being the smart one, and now just about everyone expects me to be group leader, or the only one in the group who holds the collective brain cell.Group work would be so much easier if people actually did their work on time, did some critical thinking, and acted like sentient creatures instead of human vegetables who would only carry out orders.

Image via Abby Chung/Pexels

SAYS: A shared experience between autistic individuals are the challenges in maintaining relationships outside of family. Have you experienced this too?

Fared: I would say that even within family relations, it can be quite challenging. I tend to struggle with social cues and typical conventions of interacting with others, so miscommunication is common. However, I've been able to find more fellow neurodivergent peers to get along with, as well as reach out to similar communities.It can be difficult when you are not able to access a wider network of people, but making friends and maintaining relationships is very much possible.Claire: Definitely, 100%. I don't know if by wanting to be someone's friend, I'll come off as too pushy or annoying. It's like neurotypical people have psychic telepathy or something. It's a constant guessing game.However, it's easier on online platforms, because I get to see everyone's tweets and posts and I can get an idea of who they are, what they like, and consequently, how to talk to them. I've since made casual friendships with some folks online.I already have a strong, small friend group of other neurodivergent Malaysians. We're super open in communicating with each other so I don't have to sit through guessing games.

SAYS: Do you think your university provides you enough support as an autistic individual? What would you like to see?

Fared: I believe in terms of my own individual needs, the lecturers in my university have been very accommodating. As mentioned before, they allowed me to attend classes according to my capabilities and not penalise me for imperfect attendance.Otherwise, schedules and workload are not well paced, even for neurotypical people, what more to those who are not.Claire: I can't speak for all autistic people, because we all exist on a spectrum, but I'm alright as long as I keep my head down and do my work.However, I would like to see universities dedicate classes to teaching people how to work in group projects. If people knew a sort of formula or code of conduct to follow, my life would be much easier.Also, maybe the option to work solo? I understand group work is to help prepare us for the working world and all, but I haven't really learnt much from working in a group other than knowing how to immediately spot who's gonna be a liability.

Image via Racool_studio/Freepik

SAYS: What are your plans after university? What's your dream job?

Fared: Currently, I am freelancing full-time, all while working on a game development contract job. To be honest, I think I achieved my "dream job" in wanting to earn a living in the games industry and arts industry.Ideally, I hope for a world free from the shackles of capitalism where we can dream of community and creation, but as of now, I am satisfied with how I make a living despite its challenges.Claire: Probably realistically speaking, I'll land a small-time office day job and supplement that work with art commissions. I'd really like a job in copyediting, like for a news site or for fiction. I want a small day job so it'll hopefully allow me more time to work on art.My dream job is to do art for indie games and especially to work on my own narrative projects and comics. I really want to do games and comics because I love using art as a narrative tool.

Malaysia Gets Double The Forest Rangers, Says Natural Resources Guy

3 July: Permanent forest reserve areas in the peninsula should be expanded

The permanent forest reserve areas in the peninsula should be expanded to five million hectares from the current 4.7 million hectares, Natural Resources and Environment Minister Datuk G. Palanivel said.

        thestar.com.my

"Effective efforts must be taken to ensure sustainable forest management and to prevent poaching and illegal killing of endangered animals," he said after presenting certificates to 74 participants of Forest Rangers Course at the Forest Research Institute of MAlaysia (FRIM) on Tuesday (2 Jul).

        bernama.com.my

At present, Malaysia only has approximately 2,000 forest rangers stationed in permanent forest reserve areas across the country. Palanivel said the government has agreed to double that number.

What's happening to Malaysian forests? NASA reveals shocking stats

Malaysia's figure was the highest among five countries where deforestation was detected, followed by Nepal (114%), Mexico (92%), Argentina (72%), and Madagascar (51%).

        thestar.com.my

Malaysia saw a 115% increase in deforestation during the first three months of 2013, according to a forest tracking tool developed by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) researchers.

Perak DAP head Datuk Ngeh Koo Ham revealed that there had been many complaints of logging in the Manjong district of Perak, including Segari and his own Parliamentary constituency of Beruas.

"The logging is carried out at odd hours in the middle of the night, which is very suspicious. However, we don't know if it's illegal. I cannot verify the legality of this timber logging, so I cannot lodge a police report."

Women Would See Men In A Different Light... If They Stopped Doing These 11 Things

1. Sending cryptic texts

"I remember the first time I had travelled without my husband. I was overcome by the beauty of the place and suddenly missed my husband terribly, so I sent him a long SMS thanking him for all the beautiful years together. You know what he replied? 'K'." - Liza, 55, housewife

Image via memegenerator.net

2. Having  an ever-interesting choice of footwear

"I was looking forward to a movie date with this guy from work so there I was, with my new H&M dress and there he was... dressed in shorts and slippers." - Olivia, 24, admin assistant

Image via photocdn.sohu.com & Wikia

3. Tuning out conversations

"If you're going to have a conversation with a guy, make sure there are no phone or TV screens close by. Once their eyes are glued to their FB feed or a football match, whatever vital pieces of information you're delivering will only have to be repeated all over again 90 minutes later." - Kristin, 30, copywriter

Image via FunnyMeme.com

4. Putting HGTV to shame

"It's no secret that men like to keep things simple, but I just wish they realised not everything in the house can be fixed with cellophane tape." - Faridah, 34, accounts manager

Image via Teh_awesomeness/iFunny

5. Making bold, brazen choices (that leave us in both awe and fear)

"If I had a penny for all the times I stopped myself from saying "I told you so" to my husband after I had just explained to him why he shouldn't do something, let's just say you would've seen me on Forbes' list of richest people in the world." - Yasmin, 43, housewife

Image via chicagonow.com

6. Popping collars (especially when it's already 2016)

"I've been trying to understand this phenomena since 2001 but I'm still failing miserably." - Sabrina, 28, sales executive

Image via Brit + Co

7. Destroying diet plans in just 2 seconds

"About a year into our relationship, I noticed I had put on some weight so I thought it'd be great to hit the gym again and eat clean. I needed an extra shot of fitspiration every time my boyfriend was around though... he was stuffing his face with all my favourite foods the whole time!" - Alison, 27, social media manager

Image via Hollywood

8. Taking hobbies a little too seriously...

"I love my brother and everything but he is OBSESSED over artisanal coffee! I've had to brace through too many impromptu debates between him and unassuming baristas over what is, at the end of the day, just a cup of beans steeped in hot water (don't tell him I said that!)." - Jen, 19, student

Image via Giphy

9. Hating to read =(

"I mean, I know there ARE men out there who actually enjoy reading but they're so hard to find! I once saw a guy at the mamak read a Neil Gaiman book and I'm still convinced he was my soul mate who got away..." - Aarti, 37, buyer

Image via rebloggy

10. Having TOO MUCH HAIR

"I had an ex who was very blessed in the body hair department. Everytime he got a little liberal with the top buttons of his shirt, I died a little inside." - Sarah, 28, graphic artist

Image via College Times

Gentlemen, a little grooming goes a long way! In this case, your shaver's the best friend you never thought you needed. Just make sure to grab one that still provides a smooth shave even after the tenth use. Try the Gillette Mach 3?

11. Also, having NOT ENOUGH HAIR

"My boyfriend really wants in on the whole beard trend, but i guess his DNA has other plans: he can't grow facial hair to save his life. There are these random sprigs of uneven hair on his face and the OCD in me is fantasising about just shaving them all off." - Sue, 26, programmer

Image via Ricksham/Jeff's Beard Board

News flash, men: a dapper, clean-shaven look beats the splotchy beard any day! Sometimes, you're so used to something that you may not realise... the best things are right in front of you the whole time! Don't believe us? See if you're anything like Ernest in this video by JinnyboyTV and Gillette:
