7. Property crowdfunding and stamp duty exemption for first-time home buyers

For first time home buyers in the private sector, the government has announced a "Peer-to-Peer Lending Scheme" to allow a "property crowdfunding" model regulated by the Securities Commission. For instance, a buyer may purchase a RM250,000 home by paying on RM50,000, while the balance is financed by investors through the scheme. It is expected to be launched in the first quarter of this year. Moreover, first-time buyers for houses up to RM500,000 will also be exempted from stamp duties until December 2020.Cagamas Berhad gets RM25 million to provide mortgages for first-time buyers earning below RM5,000.

8. Bantuan Sara Hidup (BSH)

Starting yesterday, families with a household income of under RM4,000 will get Bantuan Sara Hidup (BSH), the government's version of BR1M.Here's the breakdown of BSH for households:- RM1,000 for income under RM2,000- RM700 for income between RM2,001 and RM3,000,- RM500 for income between RM3,001 and RM4,000.

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

Were you ever one of those kids who absolutely hated afternoon naps?

Especially when there were guests over and you knew everyone was having a good time, but then mum or dad ruined the moment by telling you that it's time to take a nap?If you can relate, then you probably know exactly how this cat must've been feeling.

Image via @ulat_bulu_bulu (Twitter)

A series of photos recently went viral of a cat dressed in pyjamas, refusing to go to bed

Image via @ulat_bulu_bulu (Twitter)

Looking very much unwilling in a set of jammies, the cat is seen smooshing its head and tiny ears into its small owner's tummy. Just like a kid hoping that mum would change her mind.

Image via @ulat_bulu_bulu (Twitter)

Twitter user @ulat_bulu_bulu tweeted the photos yesterday, 3 February, and it has since been retweeted nearly 4,000 times.

But like every parent who knows when their kid is usually fighting sleep, the cat is seen eventually knocked out in one of the photos

Image via @ulat_bulu_bulu (Twitter)

Two cuties.

There are some cats with no issues of falling asleep though:

The Government Spent Over RM600,000 To Print 1MDB And Red Shirt Rally Books

On 14 March, Communications and Multimedia Minister Salleh Said Keruak revealed that the government has spent more than RM600,000 on 1MDB and Red Shirt rally books

Image via SAYS

In a parliamentary written reply to Teo Kok Seong (DAP-Rasah), Salleh said the books were printed in three languages Malay, Chinese and Tamil. He also said 125,000 books were printed to explain issues pertaining to 1MDB and 2,000 books were printed with regard to the Red Shirts rally.“The book ‘1MDB: Who says it’s not answered’ cost RM4.85 per book and the total cost was RM606,250. Meanwhile, the Red Shirts rally book cost RM6 each and the total cost was RM12,000,” he said.

        freemalaysiatoday.com

According to Salleh, it was necessary for the Department of Special Affairs (JASA) to publish these books to give explanations on both pressing issues.
However, Rasah MP Teo Kok Seong said that it was a waste of public funds.

Communications and Multimedia Minister Salleh Said Keruak

He said the books were published to present "facts regarding the two issues" in the light of the "heavy political climate" surrounding the state sovereign fund and the racially charged gathering."The two issues had been politicised to the extent that it caused a significant effect on the country's safety and peace," said the minister.Responding to the answer, Rasah MP Teo Kok Seong said he was "shocked" at the expenditure, which he described as a waste of public funds."The Government said it intended to cut costs, but it spent RM606,000 just to address one 1MDB issue," Teo said.

        thestar.com.my

So, what’s in the 1MDB book?

Image via Malaysia Today

• The 62-page book Siapa Kata Tidak Dijawab (Who Says It’s Unanswered) contains answers given by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, Second Finance Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Husni Hanadzlah and the company’s president and group executive director Arul Kanda Kandasamy over the past months.• The book has three sections – a foreword, 32 frequently asked questions (FAQs) and the 1MDB story as well as infographics and photographs for easy understanding. • Among the contents include a denial that RM42 billion had gone missing, pointing out that of the amount, RM18 billion was used to buy independent power plants (IPPs). • It also made clear that the company only received RM1 million in equity from the Government in 2009 and a short-term loan of RM950 million in March 2015.

What about the Red Shirt rally book?

• Titled 'Kebangkitan Baju Merah' (The Rise of the Red Shirts), the 104-page book starts by describing the rally as a “reaction to a group that always creates havoc and provocation through street demonstrations”. • The book described the Bersih rallies as, “rallies that hide under the guise of peaceful rallies. • The book credits Persekutuan Silat Kebangsaan Malaysia (Pesaka) led by former Malacca Chief Minister Datuk Seri Mohd Ali Rustam, as the organisers of the rally. • The book then depicts pictures of the Red Shirt rally calling it a show of “patriotism and the love for religion, race and peace”. • The book also stated the 14 red shirt rally resolutions:“Defend democracy, encourage respect, love and unity in the country, defend the nation’s stability, reject chauvinistic DAP, reject foreign intervention in local affairs, reject Bersih, reject abuse of Islam, always stand by the government to solve economic problems, defend Malay and Bumiputera rights, defend the democratically elected government, defend the Rukun Negara, reject politics based on slander, reject efforts to bring the government down and to reinstate the Internal Security Act.”

The 1MDB booklets were distributed to local universities to provide students with a clearer understanding of the issue, in addition to countering allegations against its ventures:

These #InkToberMalaysia Sketches Are TOO COOL, We Hope They Never Smudge!

It's October! An artsy movement has gotten Malaysians grabbing their pens to create ink drawings for the rest of the month, one day at a time.

How did this all start?

Jake Parker
Image via Colin Grist

That nib, as it began, belonged to Jake Parker, a Utah-based artist who said he “created InkTober in 2009 as a challenge to improve his and develop better professional habits."That first InkTober didn’t attract a swath of participants, but artists did express support for his effort. And in the six years since, InkTober certainly took hold — as a shared experience in which many artists around the world follow Parker’s same committed schedule. The results are now widely shared on social media, with such hashtags as #InkTober and #INKtober2015.

        washingtonpost.com

One week into the InkTober challenge, Malaysians are going strong and consistently posting their artwork online using the hashtags #InkToberMalaysia and #InkToberMalaysia2015.
Here are some of our favourites:

Groomsmen Had To Drink Shots Of Live Worms And Raw Eggs In This Malaysian 'Heng Dai' Game

For many Chinese weddings, having the groomsmen or 'heng dai' play ridiculous door games before fetching the bride is a huge part of the day

Part of the Chinese wedding ritual includes the groom entourage fetching his bride from her parents home. The bridesmaids a.k.a "ji mui" would block the way and present some challenges for the groomsmen or "heng dai" before opening the door.

While these games are often light-hearted and all for good fun, sometimes they can get too extreme. Case in point, take a look at the photo below:

In a post that has since gone viral, Facebook user Quella Kong from Sibu, Sarawak, posted a series of photos and videos showcasing a stomach-churning challenge that involved downing shots filled with raw eggs and worms!

Oh, did we mention that the worms are actually ALIVE and MOVING?

Posted by Quella Kong on Thursday, January 5, 2017

To be fair, Sago Grub or Sago Worm is a delicacy among the indigenous people of Sarawak. While it's filled with nutritious values, it still requires a certain amount of bravery and guts to shove one down the throat.

One groomsman volunteered himself as a tribute and downed the 'protein shake'. What a brave man...

Posted by Quella Kong on Thursday, January 5, 2017

Although he didn't down the shot in one go, we still have to give it up to him for trying and not throwing up. We hope the groom threw a big feast for putting these guys through this!

WhatsApp Will No Longer Work On These Phone Models In 2017

As we inch closer to 2017, millions of smartphone users will need to upgrade their handsets if they want to continue using WhatsApp

Image via Daily Star

The messaging app - which boasts over one billion users worldwide - is on the verge of ending support for a number of older smartphone models

Image via Telegraph

In a blog post, the Facebook-owned app said it will be phasing out compatibility with older phones."While these mobile devices have been an important part of our story, they don't offer the kind of capabilities we need to expand our app's features in the future," Whatsapp wrote on its website.

The company proceeded to say technology has changed dramatically since its inception, which led to its decision to drop support for ageing mobile platforms

Image via Business Insider

But anniversary dates are also an opportunity to look back. When we started WhatsApp in 2009, people's use of mobile devices looked very different from today.  Mobile operating systems offered by Google, Apple and Microsoft - which account for 99.5 percent of sales today - were on less than 25 percent of mobile devices sold at the time.As we look ahead to our next seven years, we want to focus our efforts on the mobile platforms the vast majority of people use.

        whatsapp.com

Will you be affected by the cutoff? Here's what you need to know:

Image via Blogging Hits

iPhone: The app will stop working on iPhone 3GS at the end of this year. It will also cease to function any iPhone running iOS 6,  so any phone which hasn't been updated to a later operating system will lose WhatsApp.Android: WhatsApp will cease to function on any Android tablet or phone running Android 2.1 or 2.2. This covers devices released between May 2010 and November 2011 from many different manufacturers.Windows: Anyone still using Windows Phone 7 will not be able to use WhatsApp anymore.

WhatsApp was planning to drop support for BlackBerry OS, BlackBerry 10, Nokia S40 and Nokia Symbian S60 at the same time as the above operating systems, but it had a change of heart

The support period for these devices has been extended to June 2017.

Can The Sultan of Selangor Really Ban This?

Effect of Fatwas on Non-Muslims

“MAIS’s action, which is inconsistent and contrary to the order of the court, appears to belittle and disrespect the court decision,” the lawyers said

        themalaysianinsider.com

Heads of churches agreed that the practice was a right “guaranteed to us in our Federal Constitution” under Article 11, which addresses freedom of religion.

        thestar.com.my

The state Ruler is repeating what Islamic authorities have been saying for years, based on a fatwa gazetted three years ago.

        themalaysianinsider.com

Sesuatu fatwa yang telah disiarkan dalam warta hendaklah dipatuhi oleh semua umat Islam yang berada di negeri itu, kecuali amalan peribadi yang dibenarkan mengikut Hukum Syarak

        e-fatwa.gov.my

“Fatwas are advisory in nature and do not apply to non-Muslims. Moreover, any fatwa issued that contradicts the supreme law of the land (the federal constitution) would be illegal and void,”

        themalaysianinsider.com

“a non-Muslim could be committing an offence if he uses the word ‘Allah’ to a Muslim but there would be no offence if it was used to a non-Muslim”.

        themalaysianinsider.com

The 'Decree' Issued By The Sultan of Selangor

The Sultan's decree followed a special meeting convened to discuss Lim Guan Eng's Christmas message where he had urged the government to allow Christians to use "Allah" in the BM version of the Bible

        thesundaily.my

Recently, Guan Eng was reported to have raised the issue again through his blogsite, urging the federal government to allow Christians in the peninsula to use the word "Allah" in the Bahasa Melayu version of the Bible.

        mysinchew.com

“His majesty the Selangor Sultan has made a decision and decreed that the word ‘Allah’ is a sacred word specific to Muslims and is strictly forbidden to use by any non-Muslim religion in Selangor..""

        themalaysianinsider.com

What Others Think About The Issue

MCA deputy publicity chief: "I'm not making a statement."

        themalaysianinsider.com

PAS: Isu ini tidak seharusnya diperpanjangkan jika rakyat dan semua pihak yang terlibat menerima penjelasan dan penerangan daripada pihak yang terlibat secara telus dan secara langsung.

        themalaysianinsider.com

Beliau berkata, dari aspek agama, tiada hadis yang melarang bukan Islam menggunakan perkataan itu, malah di Arab Saudi sendiri mereka boleh menggunakannya.

        bharian.com.my

Hadi accused Umno of turning the “kalimah Allah” into an election campaign issue

        thestar.com.my

Dr Haron described as kufur (disbelievers) those who allow non-Muslims to use the word “Allah”, as it could lead to syirik (shirk) when the word is used on the cross and other prayer paraphernalia.

        thestar.com.my

it began with the 1986 government ban on the use by non-Muslims of the word “Allah”, and three others — “solat”, “Kaabah” and “Baitullah”.

        thenutgraph.com

Here in Malaysia religion is greatly politicised and race a weapon to be wielded when “needed”. Never has this been more pronounced than after the 2008 general election

        freemalaysiatoday.com

Abdul Hadi accused UMNO, which represents Muslims in the country and the ruling BN, of using the word “Allah” as an issue and polemic via the mainstream media in the run-up to the general election.

God is known in Arabic as Allah to distinguish Him from ilah, which could refer to any of the gods once worshiped in Arabia.

This Grandpa Cycled 11 Days To Watch TAR Chant "Merdeka" In 1960. Now He's Doing It Again

Wan Hashim Wan Mahmood was only 14 years old when he cycled for 11 days just to witness his very first National Day celebration at Stadium Merdeka in 1960

Now fondly known as Pak Wan, the 74-year-old recalled that he cycled 500km from his hometown in Kota Bharu to the capital city together with 14 friends.And now, he's planning to do it again but this time, solo.

Pak Wan is aiming to recreate the memory by cycling to Stadium Merdeka for Malaysia's 63rd Hari Kebangsaan this time around

"In the past, I used to cycle in a group from Kota Bharu to Kuala Lumpur but today, at the age of 74, I am cycling solo to Kuala Lumpur," the senior citizen said just before starting his 2020 Merdeka Solo Cycling mission.The grandfather of 20 grandchildren also said he plans to inspire the message of unity among all races during his journey this time."I want to prove my love for the country. And it is more than enough for me to just be there again to recall the experience of seeing thousands of people happily celebrating National Day," he added.His flag-off was officiated by Kelantan Red One Network branch sales manager Daniel Leoh, along with Kelantan Darulnaim Media Club (KEMUDI) deputy president Zabidi Ishar at his home on Jalan Telipot on Sunday, 9 August.

Recounting his 1960 adventure, he remembered how excited he was to find out a group of friends had wanted to cycle to Stadium Merdeka to celebrate National Day

"All of them were older than me and initially refused to let me join them because I was too young," he told Bernama in an interview.However, his friends relented and the group of young cyclists were among the tens of thousands of Malaysians who were at Stadium Merdeka that year to see the National Day parade."I could not describe my feelings when I saw Tunku chanting 'Merdeka', a mixture of everything from happiness to sadness and wistfulness," recalled Pak Wan."It was then that I realised how difficult it was for our country to actually gain independence," he said, adding that they stayed in the capital for a few days before returning to Kelantan by train.

60 years later and with this latest mission, Pak Wan said he intends to create a new record for being the oldest person to cycle around Peninsular Malaysia nine times

No stranger to extraordinary feats, the septuagenarian entered the Malaysia Book of Records in 2014 for being the oldest man to cycle solo for 2,220km around Peninsular Malaysia.Since then, he has also set four more records for cycling - most notably completing 5,319km through Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia, and Peninsular Malaysia in 49 days back in 2018.Leoh from Red One said that his company was thoroughly impressed with Pak Wan's determination and strength despite his age."We, young people at Red One, will embrace Pak Wan's spirit to build the country together with fellow Malaysians of various races," he said.

What You Should Know About The Data Breach Affecting Astro Customers

Personal data of Astro customers have been offered for sale online

Image via Bloomberg/Getty Images

The matter was first reported by Lowyat.net on Wednesday, 6 June.It was revealed that the online portal came to know about the data breach back in January 2018, when a seller had promoted the sale of data purportedly belonging to pay TV operator Astro. According to Lowyat.net, the seller provided samples and claimed to have the following details of 50,000 Astro IPTV customers: names, installation addresses, identity card numbers, mobile phone numbers, and portal ID numbers, as well as subscribed package informationThe seller reportedly offered to sell the details for RM3,000 per 10,000 records, which translates to RM0.30 per customer.

Lowyat.net published the report on the matter following the discovery that a seller made a similar offer on the sale of Astro customer details last week

It is believed that the seller is the same person who attempted to sell the data in January.The portal raised concerns over data security, saying that it had notified Astro and the relevant authorities about the January data breach back then. It also said that Astro responded with the assurance that they took the protection of customer data seriously.Lowyat.net also pointed out that the personal data that were being sold had gone up to RM4,500 per 10,000 records, while the seller had claimed to have 60,000 records, which was an increase from the initial 50,000.

Astro has responded to media reports on the issue and offered some clarification:

1. The data breach only affected IPTV customers provisioned by Maxis

Image via KE Ooi/Malay Mail

Astro explained in a statement yesterday that the management of IPTV customers is a joint responsibility between Astro and its telco partner, Maxis Broadband Sdn Bhd (Maxis).  "No other Astro customers are affected," it said.

2. Astro said it had taken measures to address the issue the first time it was made aware of the incident

Astro gave a timeline of the sequence of events that took place after it was informed of the data leak in January:• 26 January 2018: Astro was informed of the data leak. • 26 January 2018: On the same day, Astro sought assistance from the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) and had the search engine provider remove the link. All trace of customer data online was immediately removed. • 8 February 2018: Astro lodged a police report.

3. Astro has reiterated that protecting their customer data is of utmost importance to them

"Protecting our customer data is of utmost importance to us and we have complied with all data protection protocols and obligations. In any case we have revalidated all our security measures and confirm they are intact," Astro said. After knowing that the data have resurfaced, Astro has taken subsequent actions to lodge a second police report yesterday, as well as informing MCMC of the matter. It added that a report will be lodged to the Department of Personal Data Protection and Maxis was requested to extend its assistance with the investigation."We are working closely with the authorities to address the issue. We confirm no customer financial data was disclosed. We are also working with Maxis to carry out additional forensic investigations."

Woman Receives Over 700 Calls In 7 Days After Becoming A Victim Of Dog Adoption Hoax

A message about dog adoption has been making its rounds on social media recently

A screenshot of the message that has been circulating online.
Image via Li Ling/SAYS

According to the message that has been widely shared on Facebook, WhatsApp, WeChat, and even Instagram Stories, a "dog farm" will be closed down soon and it has spread fear among dog-lovers that the canines will not have a shelter, left as strays without proper food and care.The message goes like this: "Who is willing to adopt a dog? It's free! There are rottweilers, golden hair, German Shepherd, VIP, Chihuahua, local dog, etc. There's a dog farm which will be demolished, thousands of dogs will be left stranded. If no adoption, they will starve to death. Next month on the 28th is the due date, if you cannot adopt, forward this message to save these poor dogs, but if you wanna adopt, please contact Ms. Liu  +6012 905 XXXX. Your copy and paste will save the lives of countless dogs!"

It was revealed that the message is actually a hoax

Image via Facebook

A lot of people, especially dog lovers, took notice of the message and kept forwarding and sharing it so that the public are aware that they could adopt the dogs, free of charge.If people call the number in the message, they would realise that there are no dogs up for adoption and the phone number does not belong to a "Ms Liu" — it belongs to a woman named Li Ling, who is based in Kuala Lumpur.It was pointed out that the message contained several telltale signs that it may be fake, which many may have overlooked, including the lack of information about the "dog farm" and the generic deadline of "next month on the 28th".Li Ling, the owner of the phone number stated in the message, reached out to SAYS recently and shared about how the hoax has severely affected her life since she began receiving calls on 12 October.   She revealed that the calls died down after a week, but the viral message resurfaced again recently.

The constant, non-stop enquiries about the nonexistent dogs have put her on the edge for the past week

Image via Li Ling/SAYS

While most people do not have ill intentions in forwarding the message, what they do not realise is that Li Ling has to deal with the unsolicited enquiries and harassment due to the overwhelming response from members of the public.She has received more than 700 calls and messages from strangers from 11 December until 18 December, asking about adoption."I received calls and messages every minute, from dog lovers all over Malaysia (Penang, Kuching, Johor, Kulai, Klang etc)," she said in an email written to SAYS. Li Ling has even received enquiries from Australian numbers.

Even after she explained that she is not "Ms Liu", some people still went ahead and gave her a call

Image via Li Ling/SAYS

When she conveyed the truth that the message is fake, some people have accused her of being a "liar". Meanwhile, some others were more responsive and helped her pass on the message to ignore because it is hoax."I replied to every single call informing them that it is a hoax and asking them to stop spreading further. However, it doesn't seem to work as people just forward without verifying the message that they received," she said.

The situation has gotten out of hand and Li Ling resorted to getting a new number

It was learned that she has been using the phone number for at least 10 years now and it definitely has sentimental values to her.Unfortunately, it looks she would have to forgo using the same number as the hoax message is likely to continue to circulate.

Li Ling is not the first Malaysian to have become a victim of this hoax

A few other Malaysians have became victims of the same fake message that has been making it rounds online, based on reports by The Star and Rojak Pot, a Malaysian portal passionate about finding and debunking rumours and myths. It was learned that at least one of them had lodged a police report over the matter.

It is believed that a similar message with the same layout first surfaced sometime in 2014 and originated from China

Based on a report by Sin Chew Daily, the message was reportedly circulated to prey on unsuspecting dog lovers and bait them to call the number included in the message, which belongs to the scammer. Once the interested party contact the scammer, the "owner" of the dog will usually claim to be far away and the person interested will be persuaded to make some form of transaction such as paying for the transportation cost to ship the dog. The scammer's end goal is to make money by taking advantage of people's eagerness to adopt dogs.Somehow, this fake message has been distorted and some people have become a hoax victim as their telephone numbers were included in the message.

This could happen to anyone. If you see people sharing the message, do let them know that it is fake. You could be helping out a victim of hoax.


Malaysia Is The Cheapest Country In The World For Flights

A new report has crowned Malaysia as the cheapest country in the world to catch a flight

KLIA.
Image via The Rakyat Post

Flight website Kiwi.com has released its second annual Flight Price Index, showing which countries in the world offer the most affordable flights as measured per 100km of travel.

To calculate the rankings, it analysed over a million flights across 80 countries to find an average price of short-haul and long-haul flights, on both low-cost and full-service airlines

Image via Kiwi.com

Malaysia had an average cost of 4.18USD (RM17.80) per 100km of travel.Among the top 10 cheapest countries (after Malaysia) were Bulgaria, India, Turkey, Romania, Indonesia, Portugal, Thailand, Sweden, and Spain.

The most expensive are flights originating from Belgium where the average cost is USD54.63 (RM233.17) per 100km

Kiwi.com chief executive Oliver Dlouhý.
Image via Czech Crunch

The website said the purpose of its index is "to help make travellers aware of countries that offer good opportunities for affordable travel"."Ticket prices fluctuate constantly and for many reasons. Some of the changes from one year to the next can be attributed to fuel prices, sociopolitical shifts like Brexit, and recent elections," said Kiwi.com chief executive Oliver Dlouhý.

The index also drills down into the cost of domestic flights, full service domestic flights, international flights, and full service international flights, which are aggregated to work out the overall average

Malmö Airport, Sweden.

Romania offers the cheapest non-service domestic flight at USD3.04 (RM13.00) per 100km while Sweden offers the cheapest non-service international fares at USD1.31 (RM5.58) per 100km.

Study Shows That Lack Of Sleep Could Be The Reason Why You're Gaining Weight

A new study has found that the lack of sleep could be driving weight gain

Image via BroBible

The study conducted by the University of Leeds found that people who have an average of six hours of sleep have a 3cm thicker waist than those with nine.The study, led by Dr Laura Hardie, examined 1,615 who reported how long they slept and kept records of food intake. Participants had blood samples taken and their weight, waist measurement and blood pressure recorded. The researchers also took into account age, ethnicity, sex, smoking and socioeconomic status.

Lack of sleep was also linked to reduced levels of HDL cholesterol - the "good" cholesterol - a factor that can increase the risk of heart disease

Image via Telegraph

"Because we found that adults who reported sleeping less than their peers were more likely to be overweight or obese, our findings highlight the importance of getting enough sleep," Hardie said as quoted by Daily Mail.The researchers did not speculate on why the lack of sleep causes weight gain.

Hardie noted that different people have different sleep needs but seven to nine hours of sleep is best for most adults

Image via Huffington Post

Greg Potter, a professor who also took part in the study, added that people who sleep less may have slower metabolisms.“A few (not all) previous experiments have found that if you reduce how long people sleep, some people burn slightly fewer calories at rest,” Potter told Fox News.

Lastly, the research showed no linkage between poor sleep and a less healthy diet

Image via Runners World

In other words, skipping on shut-eye may fuel weight gain, even if it’s not fueling a penchant for sugary or fatty foods.But Potter added that it’s possible the research didn’t have enough people to detect subtle relationships between sleep duration and diet. It's also possible that people did not accurately report their food choices during the course of the research.

Regardless of how sleep and weight are linked, getting adequate sleep daily is good for overall health

Sleep plays a vital role in good health and well-being throughout your life. Getting enough quality sleep at the right times can help protect your mental health, physical health, and quality of life.

Describing their mother as being "in a state of shock”, he said: “She's beyond consoling, really. I just hope and pray that they recover from this tragedy. The grandmother of the children, she made attempts to rescue the children but obviously it wasn't to be. She came out then went back in, tried her level best. Frantic attempts were made to rescue the children."

        independent.ie

According to neighbours, the children's grandmother died after running back into the blazing house to try and rescue the young victims

"It's just a huge tragedy. Words cannot describe how sad this is," Ishfaq Hussain Kayani said. He said of Ms Begum: "She was, to my children, like a mother, like an aunt. The whole community is in huge shock.

        bbc.com

"I got up and saw the police tape and thought 'what is that about?' but it was only when I came outside and saw the police officers I realised it was something serious. It's a really nice neighbourhood, the sort of place where kids play outside."

Another neighbour, who asked to remain anonymous, said: "We were asleep, we did not hear anything or see anything. "We know the family. It's such a tragedy, it's the saddest thing you can hear."

        bbc.com

A faulty electrical appliance in the kitchen is thought to be the likely cause of the blaze. The family were asleep when they were woken by a smoke alarm.
