Man Proposes To Girlfriend With Engagement Ring Made From His... Tooth?

Bride-to-be Carlee Leifkes and her fiancé Lucas Unger got engaged on this Halloween in California.
Although, that's not the actual news here. You see, Carlee is rocking an engagement ring that's unlike any traditional engagement ring.
How? It's made from her fiancé's wisdom tooth and she is loving it.

Image via Carlee Leifkes

When Carlee got a proposal from her boyfriend Lucas, she was extremely pleased to find out that the ring he gave her was not the same old clichéd diamond (borrring) and was, in fact, a princess-cut wisdom tooth (a girl's new true best friend) enclosed.
On Monday, she posted a photo of the ring on Facebook and wrote:

So incredibly excited to marry my best friend, the man who knows that his wisdom tooth means more to me than a diamond. Can’t wait to be a weirdo with you and dance our way through life to Thee Oh Sees and Black Sabbath. We have never been the “traditional couple”, why the heck start now?

Image via Carlee Leifkes

So now you can forget three months salary, if you really love your future bride, you shall give her a piece of your body...

Image via Carlee Leifkes

Besides, it's also the best way to make sure your announcement stands out among all the engagement ring photos that infect Facebook and Instagram these days.Referring to diamonds as "overrated," Carlee told BuzzFeed, "It's almost a contest of who has the biggest ring and whose fiancé loves them the most, and here I am with the coolest ring I've ever seen in my life!"

On the fiancé-loves-me scale, she's certainly up in that high range

“My birthstone is a diamond,” she notes. “I don’t need one to prove how much someone loves me. He’d already moved all the way from Canada to do that!”

#ShameOnYouMalaysia Hashtag Goes Viral As Netizens Uncover Multiple Flag Errors In KL2017

Malaysia has made headlines after the Indonesian flag was printed upside-down in a souvenir booklet for the Southeast Asian (SEA) Games

Image via @imam_nahrawi/Twitter

Indonesian Youth and Sports Minister Imam Nahrawi pointed out the mistake on Twitter, expressing regret that the magnificent opening ceremony of the Kuala Lumpur SEA Games 2017 (KL2017) on Saturday, 19 August, was spoiled by a "fatal negligence" when the Indonesian flag appeared upside down and made it look like Poland's flag on page 80 of the booklet.

The hashtag #ShameOnYouMalaysia was trending on social media as netizens from Indonesia protested against the flag error

Following the public outcry, netizens unveiled more mistakes in the booklet. One of them is how Indonesia and Thailand's flags were mixed up.

Image via Tribun Jogja

Many Indonesian news sites began reporting that another mistake was spotted in the SEA Games souvenir booklet on page 40.  The said page displayed data of countries that emerged as the overall champions of the past SEA Games. It was stated that Indonesia was the overall champion for the 2011 SEA Games but the accompanying image showed Thailand's flag. Meanwhile, Thailand who was second in the table, was matched with an image of Indonesia's flag.

It was also revealed that a Malaysian daily newspaper had also printed Indonesia's flag upside-down

Image via Tribunnews.com

An article from the daily depicted a map of the ASEAN region with flags of the respective countries that are participating in the SEA Games. However, Indonesia's flag was printed upside-down and it was the only error spotted on the page.CNNIndonesia.com reported yesterday, 20 August, that the daily has been identified as Metro Ahad. CCNIndonesia said that it has reached out to the daily for comments on the matter, but they've yet to receive any response from them.

On the other hand, the wrong flag of Brunei was shown on a digital board during the synchronised swimming duet event

Image via @maymayrin/Twitter

The Malaysian Insight reported that this had happened last Friday, 18 August, at the Aquatic centre in Bukit Jalil. Instead of Brunei's national flag, the Brunei Armed Forces Flag was used for two Brunei athletes. The latter may look similar at first glance, but there is actually an extra red stripe running diagonally across the centre and the centered crests on both flags are different from each other.

These mistakes came to light just as Youth and Sports Minister Khairy Jamaluddin apologised for the error on page 80 of the souvenir booklet:

Namewee Accused Of Disrespecting BLACKPINK & Sexualising Women In His Latest MV

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

Depending on who you ask, Malaysian rapper-director Namewee is either a musical genius, fearless social activist, patriot, controversial filmmaker, or racial tension inciter

Image via Mirror Media

This time, the singer is accused of disrespecting women following the release of his latest music video titled You Know Who Is My Father?

Uploaded on YouTube last Friday, 28 May, the six-minute long music video is sponsored by an online casino and it is said to be a parody of the prevalence of Datuks in Malaysia.Namewee — whose real name is Wee Meng Chee — can be seen playing a character who is the son of a wealthy person in most parts of the video. While in that character, he parties with scantily-dressed women and constantly flaunts his father's wealth.Writing in the description of the video, he says, "The moral of the song - don't play play with rich people, they can PIAK your face anytime they want, even in the steamboat restaurant."The Chinese caption of the video echoed the same, saying Malaysia produces many "frogs, Datuks, and Datuks' sons".The caption seems to reference an incident in January, in which a Datuk was caught assaulting a young man whose father is also a Datuk.However, netizens did not find fault in that aspect of the music video. Instead, they were peeved by a line of lyrics that says "Always look at BLACKPINK and masturbate".Myriads of BLACKPINK fans claimed that the derogatory line is uncalled for. The hypersexualisation of women in the video also made many netizens accuse Wee of disrespecting women.

Image via Twitter

The comment section of the video has since been inundated with chants of "Respect BLACKPINK, respect Rosé, respect Jisoo, respect Jennie, respect Lisa, respect women"

"I wouldn't care if he mentioned BLACKPINK as a praise but not as a sexual image. Be a man, not a boy. Respect woman in general," one YouTube user commented.Another person added, "You can make a song without disrespecting women/group etc..." "Looks like someone needs to go back to his [high school] days so he can know what's the meaning of 'respecting women'," a netizen criticised."So you really like to make controversial things. Is that your way to attract attention to your [work]?" questioned a viewer.

Image via YouTube

However, some people stood up for Wee, saying the rapper does not disrespect women or BLACKPINK as he was merely playing a flamboyant braggart, who is expected to have such a behaviour

Image via YouTube

Image via YouTube

A fan who claimed to be from Hong Kong also defended Wee, explaining how BLACKPINK fans have taken the derogatory remark out of context.

Image via YouTube

One netizen contended that the majority of the song criticises a spoilt rich man — which has a positive message — but most comments on the video disregarded the fact and focused only on one line of the lyrics.A viewer said most of the commenters here were made by "snowflakes".

Image via YouTube

Wee has a history of being a succès de scandale, with his works often ruffling feathers of politicians, police, and the law

Prior to this, he had a controversy surrounding his award-winning film Babi. Police reports were lodged against him as certain parties claimed the movie incited racial tension and had many racial slurs on its movie poster.

Image via Mashable SEA

Perhaps his most controversial work was a parody of the Malaysia national anthem, which he titled Negarakuku and reuploaded to YouTube in 2015. The video, which shot him to notoriety, was first published in 2007.With that said, allegations of Wee disrespecting women are not completely unfounded as he had on 26 February uploaded a video to discuss 'Annoying Insta Babies'.In the video, he talks about five things he does not wish to see from an Instagrammer. Among those, he says he feels disgusted every time Instagrammers upload photos with their boyfriends."This is the most crucial point of all. Can you please stop posting those lovey-dovey photos after you've got a new boyfriend and got married? I'd always unfollow once I see them," Wee said."The reason is simple: because that's gross."He also repeatedly admits that he loves seeing Instagrammers' voluptuous bodies and encourages various lascivious behaviours.However, it is unsure whether he was serious or if it was a satire, as he uses an adenoidal voice throughout the video — which is not common in his Tokok (a wordplay of 'talk c-ck') series.Regardless whether he intended the video to be a satire or not, it went on to garner over 400,000 views. Many comments cheered Wee for "daring to speak on behalf of the men". A handful of netizens left sexist comments that concur with the idea that Instagrammers should exist for their beauty — and not for their personalities and life experiences.

Although his movie Babi received many nominations at the international level, back in Malaysia, it only received police reports:

                Namewee's Latest Movie Poster Has Been Reported To The Police For Containing Racial Slurs

The movie premieres in Taiwan tomorrow, 20 November, but it is said to be banned in Malaysia.

MOH Detects More Locally Transmitted Cases Of Omicron Variant

The Ministry of Health (MOH) has detected more locally transmitted cases of the COVID-19 Omicron variant in Kedah after a previous local case, with no recent travel history, was confirmed in Bintulu, Sarawak

Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin, in a statement yesterday, 4 January, confirmed that 58 new Omicron variant cases were recorded on Tuesday, of which, four are locally transmitted cases in Kedah.According to Khairy, the four new locally transmitted cases are believed to have been infected by an Umrah pilgrim who was found positive for the COVID-19 Omicron variant in December last year.The remaining 54 are imported cases. Of which, 39 originated from Saudi Arabia, seven from the United Arab Emirates, four from the UK, two from Nigeria, and one each from Kazakhstan and France.This brings the cumulative Omicron variant case count in Malaysia to 122, with 117 being imported cases and five being locally transmitted. 71 of these cases involve returning Umrah pilgrims, Khairy said.

All four new cases were exposed to the infection on 13 December, and all of them began to show category two symptoms four days later

After a COVID-19 reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test conducted on 19 December 2021, all of them were found positive with a cycle threshold (CT) value between 20.80 and 21.49."All of them were given treatment for 14 days at the Sultan Abdul Halim Hospital in Sungai Petani, Kedah," the Health Minister was quoted as saying by Malaysiakini.

Meanwhile, in light of the rising number of Omicron cases, Khairy reminded those who are currently under compulsory quarantine to take instructions seriously and not meet with anyone during the period

"The Ministry of Health would like to remind individuals ordered to undergo mandatory home quarantine to continue observing the order, remain in separate rooms, and not meet family members and other individuals," he said, adding that failure to comply will result in more COVID-19 infections in the country including the spread of the Omicron variant among family members and the community.He also urged those eligible for a booster dose to get the jab so that they are protected.

Earlier this month, the Health Minister had warned that there is a high possibility of an Omicron wave starting in the country:

                Khairy Warns That There's High Possibility Malaysia Could Be Hit With Omicron Wave

"Like other countries, it is very likely that the Omicron wave will start in Malaysia," he tweeted.

Limo Drivers Aggressively Harassed An Uber Driver And His Passengers At The Penang Airport

An Uber driver and his two passengers found themselves in a scary situation when they were stopped and surrounded by several airport limousine drivers at the Penang International Airport on Sunday

Image via Facebook

One of the passengers said that two men with walkie-talkies had demanded that she and her husband step out of the car when the couple boarded their Uber outside the airport's arrival hall

"Our driver took out his camera to take pictures but they turned their backs and walked away," Debbie Wong, one of the passengers, told The Star.

They drove off... only to find their path blocked by a limo and several airport taxi drivers, who demanded that they alight from the vehicle. When they refused to do so, the horde started shouting obscenities and banging on the car windows.

Image via Facebook

Wong phoned the airport police, and even got into an argument with the limo drivers harassing them about going to the police station. The commotion ended when the police showed up. The Uber driver went to the police station in the airport, but it is uncertain if a police report was lodged.

The Uber driver also filmed parts of the exchange between him and the aggressive limo drivers with his phone. Watch them here:

Malaysia's First Motorcycle E-Hailing Service Is Now Legal Again

Local motorcycle e-hailing service, Dego Ride, began its operations yesterday, 1 January

According to New Straits Times, the local startup was the first company to introduce motorcycle taxis in Malaysia.Founded by Nabil Feisal Bamadhaj, who is also the chief executive officer, in 2015, Dego Ride launched its services in November 2016 with around 5,000 riders registered with the company at the time.However, shortly after it began its operations, the bike-hailing service was banned by previous government Barisan Nasional due to safety concerns.

While Pakatan Harapan also initially disagreed with the concept, they decided last year to proceed with a six-month trial for motorcycle hailing operations starting January 2020

As such, Dego Ride resumed its services on New Year's Day with over 700 approved riders.The company intends to provide a solution to the current first and last-mile disconnect from the nearest public transportation systems for those living in the Klang Valley, Shah Alam, and Putrajaya.According to The Star, Dego Ride is looking to widen its coverage by expanding their service to other regions and states in March.

Additionally, male and female riders will cater to passengers of their own gender

In a report by The Star, Nabil revealed that women make up a high number of passengers who want to use the bike-hailing service.As of now, there are 100 female riders who have registered, with less than 50 approved. "We call on more women rider to join us, as there has been high demand from female passengers for their last mile connections," Nabil said during the launch ceremony of the Dego Ride app and its headquarters in Taman Melawati, as quoted by The Star.

In response to Dego Ride's return, Youth and Sports Minister Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman praised its efforts in creating more job opportunities for youths

"It was a bad decision to ban Dego Ride. It did not only affect job opportunities but also the investment made by Nabil to realise a local startup," the minister was quoted as saying by Malay Mail.Saddiq also added that the company would be a good platform for youths on the hunt for jobs or part-time employment."I was informed that they will create 5,000 employment opportunities for youths, who could earn between RM1,500 and RM3,500 monthly," he said at the launch ceremony yesterday, as quoted by The Star.

In order to be eligible to become a Dego Rider rider, one has to fulfill several criteria

Only Malaysians aged 18 years and older with a full B2 motorcycle and free from any criminal records will be considered. Additionally, applicants must own motorcycles above 150cc in order to apply to become riders, and any applications from those with modified bikes will not be accepted.

Meanwhile, passengers can now book Dego Ride's services using their app, which is available on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store

The service is only available for travel of not more than 10km radius from the passengers' current location.Prices for rides start at RM3 for the first 3km ride and RM1 for every subsequent kilometre.

Ride-hailing giant Grab has also started recruiting riders for their motorcycle e-hailing service, GrabBike:

                You Can Now Register As A GrabBike Rider Before It Launches In January 2020

It will be a six-month pilot programme to test demand for the service in the country.

Artists Left Stunned After The Agong & Health D-G Visited Their Viral Murals Of The Heroes

On Friday, 10 July, the Yang di-Pertuan Agong (YDPA) paid a visit to the realistic mural of himself and other national leaders that went viral earlier this month

A post on the National Palace's Facebook account revealed that the Agong was accompanied by the Raja Permaisuri Agong and their children Iman Afzan, Iskandar Ri'Ayatuddin Shah, and Afzan Aminah Hafizatullah.

The three artists behind the gorgeous mural found at Section U12, Shah Alam, were finally able to meet one of their heroes in person

During his visit, the YDPA spent time with Suhaimi Ali, Firdaus Nordin, and Abdul Hadi Ramli, talking and exchanging gifts to express his appreciation for their efforts. In the Facebook post, Comptroller of the Royal Family and Household Datuk Ahmad Fadil Shamsuddin wrote, "The Agong hopes that the work of these three artists will serve as an example, a source of inspiration, and a lesson to the country's youth to appreciate their leaders and country, as well as a reminder to use their time wisely."According to Bernama, the monarch and his family enjoyed a meal with the artists before returning home.

"I am so touched that you came all the way to U12 to take a picture with the mural I painted. Truly selfless," Suhaimi said in a tweet.

Alhamdulillah ,menjunjung kasih tuanku!!Terharu sgt..tuanku sudi dtg mencemar duli ke u12 untuk bergambar sendiri dengan mural yg saya lukis.sungguh berjiwa rakyat. pic.twitter.com/K5M5jcp86o— Mieyali (@miealimural93) July 11, 2020

Health director-general (D-G) Dr Noor Hisham also found some time to snap a photo with the artwork on Saturday, 11 July

Netizens were particularly taken by the Health D-G's cool sunglasses and fun batik shirt.

I was there this morning & I felt the strong patriotic spirit among Malaysians. I would like to express my deep appreciation to all the brilliant talented artists with their extraordinary skills & artworks. It goes to show that everyone has a role in this pandemic crisis pic.twitter.com/DpHEhX2K9K— Noor Hisham Abdullah (@DGHisham) July 11, 2020

Unfortunately, Suhaimi, the 27-year-old who painted the portrait of the Health D-G, was unable to meet the venerated frontliner. In an interview with mStar, Suhaimi said, "I was hanging out at a nearby mamak when I received messages from friends saying that Dr Noor Hisham shared photos [of himself with the artwork] on his Twitter account."Noticing that the photos were tweeted only 15 minutes prior, Suhaimi rushed to the site, only to find that the Health D-G had already left. Regardless, Suhaimi expressed how thankful he was that Dr Noor Hisham went all the way to Shah Alam to see his mural. Amusingly, Suhaimi edited himself into the Health D-G's photo, adding the caption "Our hero" to his Facebook post.

13 June: Facebook adds "hashtag" (#) feature

                [NEW UPDATE] We Have Hashtags On Facebook Now?

We have hashtags on Facebook now! What do you guys think?

Read the full story

Facebook wants to help you make your conversations just a little more discoverable (if you so desire), and it's decided to finally include a long-missing feature - Hashtag (#)

        engadget.com

A print screen of the hashtag feature on Facebook.
Image via imgur.com

Users will also be able to compose posts directly from a hashtag feed and search results. That could make adding real-time content to specific streams easier than before.

        mashable.com

Up until now, Facebook said in a separate blog post on Wednesday (12 June 2013), its service lacked a "simple way to see the larger view of what's happening or what people are talking about."

        reuters.com

Facebook may launch hashtags to open Graph Searches of related posts

Hashtags seem like the natural evolution of Facebook’s newly-released Graph Search. The search is currently limited to information input by users on their location, friends, and Likes. Adding hashtag support would enable an expansion of that search functionality, letting users tune into public posts based around certain topics such as #Elections or #HarlemShake as well.

Image via mshcdn.com

Facebook already has tagging for people, Pages, and location, and could soon allow users to tag their posts with hashtags so they could be more easily indexed and surfaced by Graph Search.

        techcrunch.com

Facebook's work on a hashtag is a sign of the heightening battle between Facebook and Twitter, as both compete for mobile users and fight for advertising dollars.

        wsj.com

It is unclear how far along Facebook's work on the hashtag is and the feature isn't likely to be introduced imminently

        wsj.com

There’s a big issue with hashtags on Facebook, though. Unlike Twitter where most posts are public, on Facebook most have some level of privacy.

        techcrunch.com

Hashtags would also allows brands and events to better coordinate buzz on Facebook. They could ask people to include the hashtag when referring to a brand’s event or marketing campaign.

        techcrunch.com

What you need to know

Facebook released the video shown below to help explain how Graph Search would affect user privacy, and they have a full page dedicated to Graph Search and Privacy

        facecrooks.com

So what is that you as active Facebook users need to know about Graph Search? Here's a quick look at exactly how it works.

        firstpost.com

What is Graph Search all about?

Graph Search - It's not a clone of Google search; it's an alternative to it.

        businessinsider.com

After largely ignoring that little white box at the top of its interface for years, Facebook is finally getting serious about search.

        searchengineland.com

Graph Search is meant to answer very specific questions like "Who are my friends in San Francisco?"

        engadget.com

Facebook Introduces Graph Search

Social-media giant Facebook wants new tool to keep users on site and grab a slice of sizeable advertising revenue tied to search.

        guardian.co.uk

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg unveiled a new search feature that’s designed to entice people to spend more time on his company’s website

Dua Lagi Kes Polio Dikesan Di Sabah. Puncanya, Kanak-Kanak Ini Tidak Divaksin

Pada 8 Disember lalu, Malaysia digemparkan dengan berita kembalinya penyakit polio setelah 19 tahun bebas daripadanya

Penyakit berbahaya itu dikesan di Tuaran, Sabah melibatkan seorang bayi warganegara Malaysia berusia 3 bulan. Selain itu, hasil siasatan Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia (KKM) juga menunjukkan bahawa kanak-kanak di kawasan kejiranan itu tidak menerima suntikan vaksin. Kali terakhir penyakit polio dikesan di Malaysia adalah pada tahun 1992 dan negara ini disahkan bebas polio pada tahun 2000.

Terbaru, KKM mengesahkan terdapat dua lagi kes polio dikesan di Sabah. Ini menjadikan jumlah pesakit polio di negara ini meningkat kepada tiga orang.

Ketua Pengarah Kesihatan Malaysia, Datuk Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah.

"Hasil daripada tindakan KKM mempergiatkan langkah-langkah pencegahan dan kawalan, terdapat dua kes acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) baharu yang disyaki polio telah dikesan."Sampel najis bagi kedua-dua pesakit ini selanjutnya telah dihantar ke World Health Organization Polio Regional Reference Laboratory (WHO Polio RRL) di Melbourne, Australia untuk ujian pengesahan dan genetic sequencing. "Pada 9 Januari 2020, isolat virus bagi kedua-dua kes ini telah disahkan positif virus polio oleh WHO Polio RRL," tulis kenyataan tersebut.

Hasil siasatan mendapati kedua-dua pesakit itu bukan warganegara Malaysia dan tidak pernah menerima vaksin

"Seorang kanak-kanak lelaki bukan warganegara berumur 11 tahun yang menetap di Kinabatangan, Sabah. Kanak-kanak ini tidak pernah mendapat sebarang imunisasi. "Dia mengalami demam pada 17 November 2019 dan telah mendapatkan rawatan di klinik. Pada 1 Disember 2019, dia dimasukkan ke hospital setelah mengadu sakit di bahagian belakang dan tidak boleh berjalan. Pesakit kini boleh berjalan dengan bertongkat."Seorang kanak-kanak lelaki bukan warganegara berumur 8 tahun yang menetap di Sandakan, Sabah. Kanak-kanak ini tidak pernah menerima sebarang imunisasi. "Pada 9 Disember 2019, dia telah mengalami demam dan tiga hari kemudian tidak boleh berjalan. Dia masih dirawat dengan bantuan pernafasan di hospital," tulis kenyataan tersebut.

Pihak KKM kini sedang memantau dengan teliti tentang jangkitan baru penyakit ini di Sabah

"Ujian makmal WHO Polio RRL di Australia juga mendapati bahawa virus polio yang menjangkiti ketiga-tiga kes ini mempunyai perkaitan genetik dengan kes polio di Filipina. Siasatan rapi telah dijalankan bagi mengenal pasti punca jangkitan kedua-dua kes baharu ini sebaik sahaja dikenal pasti sebagai AFP. "Sehingga kini, seramai 705 orang penduduk di kawasan tempat tinggal kedua-dua kanak-kanak tersebut telah diperiksa dan tiada kes AFP lain yang dikesan. Seramai 65 orang kanak-kanak didapati cicir imunisasi polio dalam kawasan tempat tinggal kes-kes terbabit dan telah diberi suntikan vaksin polio menggunakan vaksin kombinasi lima serangkai (DTaP-IPV//HiB)," tulis kenyataan itu lagi.

Dalam pada itu, KKM turut menyeru agar masyarakat di Sabah mengambil langkah-langkah pencegahan seperti berikut:

1. Anak-anak berumur bawah lima tahun menerima dua dos vaksin OPV semasa kempen ini dijalankan di daerah masing-masing. 2. Imunisasi rutin di bawah Program Imunisasi Kanak-Kanak Kebangsaan perlu diteruskan dan diambil mengikut jadual yang ditetapkan.3. Menjaga kebersihan diri termasuk mandi menggunakan air terawat, cuci tangan selepas ke tandas dan sebelum makan serta sebelum menyediakan makanan untuk kanak-kanak. 4. Menggunakan tandas yang bersih dan sempurna dengan tidak membuang air besar terus ke dalam air/sungai/laut. Lampin pakai buang perlu dibuang di tempat yang sanitari.5. Jangan mandi dalam sungai atau air yang disyaki terdapat najis manusia di dalamnya dan tidak menggunakan airnya untuk membersihkan peralatan memasak. 6. Sentiasa menjaga kebersihan persekitaran agar makanan dan minuman tidak tercemar dengan najis. Masak makanan dan air ke tahap suhu yang selamat sebelum dimakan. Peralatan makanan dan minuman bayi perlu sentiasa bersih dan dinyahkuman sebelum digunakan7. Menggalakkan semua kanak-kanak berumur 6 bulan ke bawah diberi susu badan sepenuhnya bagi mengurangkan kemungkinan pencemaran silang ketika penyediaan botol susu.8. Segera dapatkan rawatan awal di klinik atau hospital berdekatan sekiranya terdapat tanda-tanda dan gejala penyakit polio.

Semoga rakyat dapat mengikuti langkah pencegahan tersebut. Mencegah itu kan lebih baik daripada merawat?

Australian Triathlete Completes Race In Malaysia With oBike After His Bicycle Failed Him

When his bicycle started showing problems during a race in JB recently,  Lachie Kerin, an Australian professional triathlete, had to put his quick-thinking skills to the test

Lachie Kerin.
Image via oBike Malaysia

Left with minimal options, the 22-year-old grabbed an oBike to finish his race

Image via @ljkerintriathlete

Kerin was participating in the Challenge Iskandar Puteri, a triathlon held in Johor from 21 to 23 September. He participated in the event with his own bike but it started to malfunction during the last 30km of the race. The steerer snapped while his handlebars, frame, and fork fell apart, causing him to stop by the roadside.He spotted a few oBikes nearby and since they were same ones in his home country, he picked one up to continue the remaining 30km of the race.

Although Kerin found the small, yellow-black bike not as "ideal" for a triathlon, it still managed to get the job done

Image via @ljkerintriathlete

"The city bike, despite its top speed of about 18km/hr and no water bottle holder (not ideal for 2 hours in the heat), was actually pretty damn fun albeit not ideal. It made for a looooong day but an epic memory and one I won’t forget soon!” added Kerin.Kerin did not mention if he activated the QR code on the bike himself or if someone helped him out.

He also shared the experience to oBike Malaysia, saying that the company had "saved his day"

The bicycle-sharing company also applauded Kerin's resilient behaviour; because most pro-triathletes would choose DNF (Did Not Finish) when facing problems but not Lachie Kerin.

Singapore-based oBike entered the Malaysian market in April this year. But it hasn't been smooth sailing after MBPJ confiscated more than 200 bicycles belonging to the company recently.

Image via Autotrade

The Star Online reported that oBike was deemed as an illegal business by MBPJ and the bicycles were seized for causing traffic obstruction.  oBike is currently allowed to operate in Subang Jaya within the Klang Valley region. The business has expanded to parts of Terengganu and Johor.

Props to you for not giving up, Kerin!

"Like This, Anyone Can Be Minister" – Women's Ministry Under Fire For Evading Questions

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

The Ministry of Women, Family, and Community Development (KPWKM) came under fire in Parliament on Wednesday, 6 October, after not providing details and progress updates on key policies

Its Deputy Minister, Siti Zailah Mohd Yusoff, was accused of "reading from her script" and providing generalised answers when other members of Parliament (MPs) questioned her on new laws and amendments involving women and social welfare – particularly the Sexual Harassment Bill."I've heard these answers before. I want to know the steps you have taken," Batu Kawan member of Parliament (MP) Kasthuri Patto asked for clarification.Kasthuri pointed out that the acts were ready to be presented in Parliament since the change in governments and the Sexual Harassment Bill was already supposed to be debated in Parliament last year."You have been in a government with the biggest Cabinet for more than 24 months. You cannot still say 'berusaha' (trying). I want to know what your initiatives are to help working mothers return to work? What are your childcare policies? So far, you are speaking in generalities only."

Image via Parlimen Malaysia (YouTube)

Earlier, during Siti Zailah's 12th Malaysia Plan speech, Segambut MP Hannah Yeoh had also asked for the ministry's timeline to enact the new laws and amendments

"You said the ministry has finished its studies concerning the welfare needs of senior citizens and would prepare a draft to enact laws," Yeoh asked."Timeline-wise, the ministry has to table new laws for senior citizens, gender equality, social workers, sexual harassment, and amendments for the disabled.""Which is going to go first, will we see any of them tabled this year?"However, both times, Siti Zailah said she had a lot of matters to go through and asked the MPs to allow her to finish her speech.In the end, the KPWKM Deputy Minister's time ran out and the Dewan Rakyat's Deputy Speaker, Datuk Mohd Rashid Hasnon, said the minister or ministry will send them her answers in written form.

Image via Parlimen Malaysia (YouTube)

At this point, Yeoh stood up to argue that debating in Parliament had no meaning but Rashid temporarily cut her microphone off

As Rashid continued to call on Deputy Communications Minister Datuk Zahidi Zainul Abidin to deliver his speech, Yeoh interjected and said that they were making a mockery of Parliament if MPs are not allowed to ask questions."Speaker, look at the situation in Parliament now. There seems to be no meaning in debates," Yeoh said."This makes a mockery of Parliament. We can't ask questions and there's no point in getting written answers. If reading from scripts is the way to go, then anyone can be a minister."She added that questions should not be perceived as personal attacks.

This 6-Year-Old's Attempt To Save A Chick He Ran Over Will Restore Your Faith In Humanity

Six-year-old Derek Lalchhanhima from Sairang, India was riding his bike when he accidentally ran over a chick on the road

According to a Facebook post on the incident, which has garnered over 93,000 shares at the time of writing, the animal died instantly.However, the upset little boy was still full of hope.

Clutching the lifeless chick on one hand and INR10 (RM0.59) on the other, Derek begged his father to take him to the hospital

According to NextShark, his father told him to go on his own.The six-year-old ran to the hospital without hesitation.Touched by his hopefulness, the hospital staff took photos of the wide-eyed child.

Image via Facebook

"With all the money that he had, he asked for help," the caption read."I'm laughing and crying at the same time."

The little boy burst into tears when medical staff told him that there was nothing they could do as the chick had already died

An upset Derek came home and told his father that he would return to the hospital with more money to help the lifeless animal.His parents then explained to him that it was unfortunately impossible for anyone at the hospital to revive it.According to The News Mill, Derek's father said that he has "always been a rather unique kid."

Though the bird could not be saved, Derek's school cheered him up by presenting him with an award for "extraordinary courage"

Image via Facebook

"In Mizo tradition, different types of shawls are usually presented to esteemed guests and in olden days, to pasalțha (braves or warriors) who have accomplished great feats," read the caption in a follow-up post on 4 April."The shawl that is draped on him looks like a modified version of the 'Tawlhloh Puan', an honour given to those who have exemplified extraordinary courage," she explained.

Netizens flooded the comments section of both posts to applaud Derek for his exemplary kindness and empathy
