[PICS+VIDS] This Man Is Really Flying UP Using Helium Balloons

39-year-old Jonathan Trappe wants to be the first person to fly across the Atlantic ocean via helium balloons

Balloonist Jonathan Trappe, who was attempting to become the first person to fly across the Atlantic using cluster balloons, says he thought he was going to die as he crash landed in complete darkness in Newfoundland, Canada. “Honestly did not know if I would survive...

The IT project manager hopes to become the first man to make the 2,500-mile journey by helium alone. Five men have died attempting the feat.

        mirror.co.uk

A daring aviator today began the world's first ever attempt to cross the Atlantic ocean dangling precariously from a massive cluster of helium-filled balloons.

        dailymail.co.uk

Jonathan Trappe took off from Caribou, Maine, on Thursday morning as his capsule was lifted by 370 helium-filled balloons in heavy fog and he headed east from the US.

Trappe is attempting the crossing with about 370 balloons.  He will pop or release balloons and drop ballast in order to accommodate shifting weather and wind patterns during the crossing.

        go.com

His flight, at between 18,000ft and 25,000ft, could take up to seven days and he could land anywhere from Norway to North Africa – or have to ditch in the sea. But Jonathan, 39, hopes to reach Paris, where the first manned balloon was flown in 1783.

        mirror.co.uk

Depending on the wind currents, Trappe could end up landing anywhere from Morocco to Norway.  He estimates the trip will take between three and six days.

        go.com

Trappe did not have the ability to control the direction of his flight other than by climbing or descending. He could climb by throwing ballast, in the form of sand, overboard and descend by releasing individual balloons.

        onlinesentinel.com

The IT project manager says the most dangerous thing is the weather, yet he depends on it to travel

Image via telegraph.co.uk

“Two years of work comes down to tonight, and then this flight,” Trappe. “Two years of work, and years more of dreams.  My heart could never live a long life the way it is beating now.”

        go.com

"Weather is absolutely the most dangerous factor," said Trappe, speaking immediately before launch. " It's the only thing that will carry me across, but bad conditions could also ruin the attempt or endanger my life."

        theguardian.com

Trappe already holds the record for the longest ever cluster balloon flight of 14 hours, but said: 'This is far greater than anything achieved before, I'm looking at 62 hours or longer.'

WATCH: But this test flight in Mexico convinced him that this trans-Atlantic balloon flight is possible

Last November, he took a test flight in Leon, Mexico. The balloons lifted him as high as 20,000 feet before he descended and landed in a local lake. It was all the proof he needed that a trans-Atlantic trip was possible.

He once flew a chair, and also a house!

Trappe has previously completed successful cluster balloon voyages across the Alps and the English Channel.  He and his team waited for over 100 days for just the right weather conditions capable of carrying him across the ocean.

        go.com

He already holds the record for the longest-ever cluster balloon flight, which lasted 14 hours and involved balloons tied to an office chair. He also was the man behind making a real-life version of the floating house in Disney-Pixar's "Up."

        upi.com

Five people have died trying to cross the Atlantic Ocean

Image via telegraph.co.uk

“This is very serious; it is the great Atlantic Ocean,” Trappe wrote on his website speaking of the danger involved in his record-breaking attempt.

        go.com

“Five people have lost their lives attempting to cross these waters in a balloon, and two non-pilots were lost into the oceans flying cluster balloons.”

"Hebatnya Orang Kampung!" - Netizen Teruja Tengok Cara Unik Penduduk Alihkan Rumah Ini

Kebiasaannya kita hanya dengar cerita tentang tradisi angkat dan usung rumah, tetapi kali ini menarik sebab kita dapat lihat depan-depan

Menurut sumber, tradisi ini asalnya bertujuan untuk orang kampung pindah rumah dan menjimatkan proses mengemas, bungkus dan tak perlu panggil lori untuk angkut semua barang ke rumah baru. Kalau difikirkan semula, lebih baik angkat rumah ke tempat baru, kerana rumah zaman dulu hanya diperbuat daripada kayu dan papan semata-mata.Baru-baru ini, seorang pengguna akaun Facebook telah berkongsi beberapa video yang dirakam ketika orang kampungnya sedang mengalihkan sebuah rumah papan beramai-ramai dalam keadaan hujan.Lihat salah satu video di bawah:

Bagi sesiapa yang tak pernah tengok mesti teruja

Difahamkan, video yang dikongsi oleh pengguna Facebook bernama Miaa Jumaah itu adalah di Batu Pahat, Johor.Menurutnya, orang kampung seramai lebih 20 orang tolong alihkan rumah kayu tersebut kerana tuan rumah ingin menambah rumahnya. Jadi, mereka bekerjasama untuk angkat, tarik, tolak dan gerakkan rumah itu ke depan dan belakang dengan menggunakan sokongan batang buluh di bawah rumah.

Salah seorang akan jadi 'tekong' atau ketua apabila yang lain mengangkat rumah

Menurut sumber, biasanya ketua kampung akan umumkan kepada semua jika ada kerja pindahkan rumah. Orang kampung akan potong dan sediakan batang buluh bergantung kepada saiz rumah untuk diikat pada bahagian rasuk rumah sebelum dialihkan.Jika dilihat semula video yang diambil oleh Miaa Jumaah itu, akan terdengar suara ketua beri arahan untuk gerakkan rumah kayu tersebut ke depan atau ke belakang.

Rata-rata komen daripada netizen berkata mereka agak teruja dan 'jakun' melihat video tersebut kerana ada yang pertama kali tengok cara orang kampung alihkan rumah

Tak semua orang pernah melihat bagaimana rumah diangkat dan diusung, logiklah kalau ada yang jakun bila first time nampak kan.Antara komen menarik daripada netizen di Facebook:

Form Five Student In Banting Stabbed His Counselling Teacher After Being Reprimanded

Earlier this week, 17 June, a 17-year-old student stabbed his counselling teacher at a religious school in Sungai Manggis, Banting

The Star Online reported that the incident took place in the assistant warden's room at 8.20pm on Monday when the teacher, Muhammad Hasnan Salim, entered the room after taking off his shoes.

According to Kuala Langat police chief Superintendent Azizan Tukiman, the suspect had been waiting for the victim in the room that night

“As the victim was entering his office, the suspect stabbed him with a knife on the shoulder,” he said as quoted by NST Online."The victim was stabbed a few times in the shoulder before the suspect ran away," he added.

Upon arriving at the scene after receiving a call, the police found that the knife was still embedded in the teacher's shoulder

The victim was immediately rushed to the Banting Hospital before he was brought to Tengku Ampuan Rahimah Hospital in Klang for further treatment. Azizan said that the victim, who is in his 30s, is now in a stable condition after surgery.

Image via NST Online

It is revealed that the attack was an act of revenge because the teacher had reprimanded the student earlier

According to NST Online, the suspect had also failed in several subjects over the last month. “Dissatisfied and stressed (for being admonished), the suspect waited for the victim outside the teacher’s office on the ground floor of the hostel," the police chief said.

The suspect has been remanded for five days until Friday, 21 June

The suspect has also been referred to the Psychiatric Unit at Banting Hospital.“The case has been classified as solved and the investigations papers will be referred to the Deputy Public Prosecutor soon for the next course of action,” he said as reported by The Star Online. The case was investigated under Section 326 of the Penal Code for voluntarily causing grievous harm.


"Berapa Dalam Ni? Kalau Sikit Seringgit Dua Ringgit, Kita Tak Naklah!"

Artikel ini ditulis oleh Dr Syahr Musafir di laman Facebook, kemudian diambil dan dikongsi semula di SAYS atas kebenaran beliau.

Saya bawa isteri dan anak-anak beraya di rumah seorang kenalan baru-baru ini. Macam biasa, kita bersembang, makan dan sebagainya. Selesai semuanya, saya dan isteri bingkas bangun, nak minta diri untuk pulang.Saya mencapai beberapa keping sampul duit raya dari dalam beg untuk diberikan kepada kanak-kanak di rumah itu. Datang seorang kanak-kanak perempuan, saya tak kenal siapa dia, tetapi yang pasti bukan anak tuan rumah, meminta duit raya mungkin setelah dia nampak sampul-sampul itu ada pada tangan saya. Saya berikannya satu sampul. Selesai.Saya terus agihkan duit raya. Seorang dapat satu sampul, yang sudah berumur belasan tahun pun saya berikan juga walaupun ada yang menolak. Tak apalah, kira sedekah juga, kira adab dan adatnya juga.Ada dua kanak-kanak lelaki sedang kejar-mengejar dekat seorang wanita, berkemungkinan itu ibunya, saya memanggil mereka. Mereka pun tetamu di rumah ini, bukan anak tuan rumah. Salah seorang daripada dua kanak-kanak tersebut datang mendekati saya, saya hulurkan satu sampul duit raya kepadanya. Dia ambil, dia mengucapkan terima kasih, dia tersenyum. Saya turut senyum.

        facebook.com

Datang pula, saya mengagak, si abangnya. Saya hulurkan satu sampul duit raya kepadanya. Dia mengangkat kening, dan berkata, "Berapa dalam ni? Kalau sikit seringgit dua ringgit, kita tak naklah!"Saya terkedu. Seriously, I was speechless. "Ambillah," saya tetap hulurkan sampul duit raya kepadanya, tanpa memberi jawapan kepada soalannya. Wanita tadi, saya mengagak itu ibunya, diam seribu bahasa tetapi mukanya merah padam dan riak bahasa wajahnya, dia seakan malu dan kecewa dengan apa yang dituturkan oleh anaknya. Matanya semacam berair. Dia seakan nak berkata sesuatu, saya cepat-cepat angkat tangan ke dada, senyum, buat gaya "It is OK," supaya dia tak perlu minta maaf kalau si ibu mahu minta maaf. Saya terus minta diri daripada tuan rumah, kami pun pulang. Hari ini saya terbaca kisah viral teguran Chef Wan kepada anak-anak saudara maranya, buat saya terus teringat kisah ini semula.Biasalah kalau kanak-kanak nakal yang datang ke rumah kita menyebabkan rumah kita kucar-kacir, sepahkan ruang tamu, pecahkan barang perhiasan. Ada pula kanak-kanak lain menumpahkan air, makanan, menangis menjerit tantrum, dan pelbagai lagi.Pada hari raya pula, ada sesetengah kanak-kanak datang kepada kita meminta duit raya. Bak kata ramai orang, ibu bapa sepatutnya mendidik anak-anak supaya tidak meminta-minta duit raya. Tak elok.

Ada pula kanak-kanak yang membuka sampul duit raya sebaik sahaja dia menerimanya daripada mana-mana orang. Tak cukup dengan buka depan-depan pemberi, siap jerit lagi menyebut berapa duit yang dia dapat. Aduiii. But, that boy just now, he was really something. Tak meminta-minta duit raya, tetapi 'warning' dia tak mahu terima duit raya jika sikit, atau murah. Saya terkedu, for real.Saya tak salahkan sesiapa.Good parents can do so much to teach their kids. Ajar itu ini, ajar agama, ajar adab, ajar segala-galanya. Kalau si anak pertama boleh patuh dan mengikut, tak siapa tahu adik-adiknya juga akan patuh juga atau membesar dengan a totally opposite behaviour. Begitu juga jika si kakak atau si abang yang jahat, tak semestinya si adik akan jahat juga. Dua kanak-kanak tadi pun sama, si adik (saya agak, berdasarkan tinggi dan saiz badan yang lebih kecil) datang senyum dan berterima kasih, si abangnya pula tak elok bahasanya.Saya tak mahu menyalahkan ibunya, sebab saya rasa ibunya tahu di mana silapnya si anak, menyebut perkara yang tak sepatutnya. Saya yakin sebagai ibu bapa yang baik dan sedar, kita akan DIDIK anak kita apabila kita tahu apa yang telah terjadi seperti situasi saya ini, kita akan ajar anak-anak supaya behave, ucap terima kasih, tak buka sampul duit raya depan pemberi, bla bla bla dan kita pesan jangan sesekali mempersoalkan duit raya itu banyak atau sikit. Not good.

Kids will be kids. They are still growing, they are still learning. And what they have to learn is A LOT.Sebagai ibu bapa, sebagai cikgu-cikgu, sebagai bapa dan ibu saudara, sebagai pak cik mak cik, sebagai orang dewasa, sebagai jiran tetangga, kita harus SABAR dengan kerenah mereka dan sedaya upaya memperbetulkan apa yang salah, improve apa yang kurang. Dengan BAIK. JANGAN jadi penghukum kepada kekurangan-kekurangan yang mereka ada, jangan mengherdik anak-anak yang tersilap buat sesuatu, jangan menghina anak-anak yang kurang elok perangainya, jangan menyumpah mereka dengan perkataan-perkataan kotor, jangan pula 'membinatangkan' anak-anak apabila mereka kurang adab. Marahlah, dengan BAIK. Kita pun budak juga dulu, remember?Kids will be kids, we can do so much to teach them. But at the end of the day, they will still be kids, they play a lot, they make mistakes, they cause troubles, and they behave like kids. Be it we say it is ridiculous, misbehaviour, rude, hyperactive or else, kids are being kids. As long as we do our 'job' as parents, we fulfill our responsibilities to teach and nurture them with good deeds and behaviour, we leave it to Allah SWT to guide them. TAWAKKAL.

Janganlah kerana si anak itu nakal, kita menyalahkan si ibu bapa seratus-peratus. Jangan kerana si anak itu tak mampu dikawal, kita menuding jari kepada ibu bapa semata-mata. Ada ibu bapa yang saya kenal sudah berbuat segala apa sahaja yang boleh, untuk 'meluruskan jalan' si anak, tetapi anak-anak tetap 'salah jalan', terlalu ganas, aktif, dan sebagainya. Dan kita mengumpat di belakang, "Minah dan Mamat (bukan nama sebenar) tu buat anak je pandai, tapi tak pandai jaga anak. Anak perangai macam setan!" Kenapalah pula kita yang menjadi penghukum...Ada anak, depan ibu bapanya, behave elok, pijak semut pun tak mati. Ada anak, depan ibu bapanya, pun nakal terlebih-lebih. UJIAN masing-masing buat ibu bapanya.Teringat pasangan pak cik mak cik yang saya kenal, dua insan mulia yang banyak sumbangan kepada masyarakat, murah dengan senyuman, selalu beri sedekah, dan pelbagai lagi. Setahu saya, mereka ibu bapa yang baik, mereka juga pernah menjaga saya dan saya dapat rasa mereka adalah ibu bapa yang hebat. Namun, mereka diuji Allah SWT apabila dua anak lelaki mereka terlibat dengan najis dadah, seorang dipenjara kerana kesalahan mengedar dadah (kalau tak silap) dan seorang lagi sudah meninggal dunia gara-gara dadah, pada usia baru belasan tahun. Anak-anak perempuan mereka elok, menjaga aurat, berjaya dalam bidang akademik dan bekerjaya. Dan saya bermuhasabah, ibu bapa boleh buat segala-galanya yang baik untuk pastikan anak-anak membesar dengan baik, tetapi bukan tubuh badan kita sebagai ibu bapa dan bukan juga didikan kita yang menjadikan anak-anak kita baik, tetapi ALLAH SWT jualah yang memegang hati-hati seluruh anak kita, sama ada mereka dengar kata, atau tidak.

        facebook.com

Inilah konsep TAWAKKAL, bergantung penuh kepada Allah untuk jadikan anak-anak kita anak-anak bakal penghuni syurga, sepanjang kita membesarkan anak-anak. Tawakkal sepanjang masa, berharap, berdoa, bergantung kepada Allah SWT. BUKAN mendabik dada anak-anak aku behave sebab aku adalah seorang ayah yang baik!Saya bermuhasabah hari ini, saya harus buat yang TERBAIK tetapi jangan lupa TAWAKKAL penuh kepada Allah SWT. Jangan sesekali lupa tempat bergantung yang paling utama adalah Allah SWT dan jangan sesekali kata "Anak aku berjaya kerana aku, kerana didikan aku, kerana usaha aku," tetapi katakan "Anak-anak aku berjaya sebab Allah SWT yang berjayakan anak-anakku!" Dan yang tidak berjaya, jangan terlalu menyalahkan diri sampai kita lupa bukan tangan kita sahaja yang menentukan masa depan anak-anak, tetapi ada 'campurtangan' Allah juga dalam menentukan baik buruk seseorang manusia. Iman tak dapat diwarisi, dari seorang ayah yang bertaqwa.....Tawakkal juga adalah usaha dan tanggungjawab.

This Guy Emailed His Boss Asking For A USD10K Raise And CC'ed 200,000 Colleagues

Late last week, 30-year-old Tyrel Oates, a Wells Fargo employee, after deciding for two weeks that he deserved a USD10,000 annual raise, simply emailed his CEO John Stumpf to ask for it. But there was more to his simple email.

Image via BusinessInsider via Tyrel Oates

You see, Oates' request was that it wasn't just for himself: It was also for hundreds of thousands of other Wells Fargo employees. He also CC'd 200,000 other Wells Fargo employees on the email to Stumpf. Talk about some chutzpah!

Based in Portland, Oates has been an employee at the banking and financial services giant for nearly seven years, and earns around USD15 an hour. In the letter, Oates brought up the issue of income inequality.

The story initially broke when the full email was posted to Reddit, and later confirmed by The Oregonian, via an interview with Oates. Oates argued that as the company has skyrocketed in profits over the past few years, those profits should be shared as the average employee still makes less than a living wage.

        6abc.com

He spent two weeks gathering his fellow employees’ email addresses for the move, which he hoped would “show the rest of the United States, if not the world, that yes, big corporations can have a heart other than philanthropic endeavours”. He marked the email as “high importance”, and had “income inequality” as the email subject line.

        buzzfeed.com

According to his profile on Forbes, Stumpf has been with Wells Fargo for 31 years, and in 2013 was paid around USD19 million

Image via qz.com

John G. Stumpf is Chairman of the Board, President and Chief Executive Officer of Wells Fargo & Company, a banking and financial services company. He has been President since August 2005, Chief Executive Officer since June 2007, and Chairman since January 2010. A 31-year veteran of Wells Fargo, he has held various operational and managerial positions throughout his career.

        forbes.com

Here is the brilliant email Oates sent to CEO Stumpf:

Image via BusinessInsider

When asked, Oates said that he's not worried about losing his job

He told Business Insider that the response has been positive, saying: “Out of the hundreds of replies I’ve received from colleagues supporting my actions and ideas, I’ve only received two negative replies.”

        businessinsider.in

However, as per BBC, at a Wells Fargo branch in Washington DC, one worker says she found the email "unprofessional, but well written"

She says that she could use a raise. She wonders how much longer Mr Oates will keep his job - a concern echoed by many of the commenters on the Reddit post.

        bbc.com

"Now, whenever a hiring manager willing to pay $20/hr Googles the name from his resume, this will come up," writes one Reddit user.

        bbc.com

While CEO Stumpf hasn't replied, a bank spokesperson says Wells Fargo's compensation is "market competitive"

Its statement said Wells Fargo “values and supports its team members.” Wells Fargo provides “market competitive” compensation with an annual review. Everyone’s pay “significantly” exceeds federal minimums.

Car Thief in KL Panics Then Dies. What Happened?

47-year-old suspect stole a car with a 7-year-old boy inside

In a freakish turn of events, a thief drove off a car with a seven-year-old boy inside only to die several kilometers away from the crime scene in Setapak here.

        malaysiandigest.com

The 47-year-old suspect had stolen a car left with the engine runnning.
The car owner was sending her two daughters to a nursery in Taman Melati.

        themalaysianinsider.com

“She left the boy in the car with the engine running when the thief got into the vehicle and drove it away,” said City police CID chief Senior Asst Comm Datuk Ku Chin Wah.

        thestar.com.my

He panicked, ran 100 meters, and then collapsed

It is understood that the thief panicked because the boy was crying continuously.

        thestar.com.my

He then pulled over and fled on foot with a bag, containing an undisclosed amount of cash belonging to the mother.

        thestar.com.my

Sentul police chief ACP Zakaria Pagan in a SMS to Bernama, said: “Cries by the 7-year-old boy shocked the suspect who left the car in Jalan 12C/6, Setapak Indah and ran over 100 metre before collapsing.”

Jual Sandwic Ayam & Kopi Dengan Harga RM1, Dua Pemuda Ini Mampu Raih RM1,000 Sebulan

Pernah tak anda terfikir anda boleh mendapatkan pakej sarapan pagi yang lengkap dengan hanya RM1?

Buat orang Sandakan, Sabah, mungkin pagi anda selepas ini akan lebih bertenaga sekiranya anda singgah ke gerai tepi jalan ini yang menjual pakej sarapan pagi dengan harga RM1 SAHAJA!

Jaafar Pame (kiri) dan rakannya, Muhammad Abdullah.

Bayangkan dengan hanya RM1 anda boleh mendapatkan sarapan sandwic ayam dan sayur beserta kopi atau teh. Gerai ini terletak di tepi jalan berhampiran Taman Fajar di Jalan Airport, Sandakan yang merupakan laluan utama yang dilalui banyak kenderaan pada setiap pagi.Perniagaan ini dijalankan oleh dua orang pemuda iaitu Jaafar Pame dan rakannya Muhammad Abdullah.

Idea ini tercetus dan dibuat atas keinginan membantu mereka yang berpendapatan rendah mendapatkan sarapan dengan harga murah. Yelah, mana nak dapat sandwic beserta kopi dengan harga RM1?

Bukan itu saja, pancake, sup cendawan dan minuman panas yang lain turut dijual berasingan dengan harga RM1 juga setiap satu. Mesti ramai yang tertanya-tanya, bagaimana mereka mendapat untung dengan menjual harga semurah itu? Menurut kedua-dua pemuda ini, biarpun ia dijual dengan harga murah, mereka masih mampu memperoleh pendapatan RM1,000 sebulan. Kata mereka, sambutan orang ramai memang sangat menggalakkan.Mereka memulakan perniagan itu sejak Oktober lalu dan sehingga kini mereka mampu mempunyai pelanggan tetap mereka sendiri.

Dengan hanya menggunakan poster dan kain rentang bagi memaparkan menu sarapan, nampaknya pendekatan itu betul-betul menarik perhatian ramai

Mereka mula berniaga bermula dari jam 6 hingga 8 pagi iaitu pada waktu puncak di mana orang ramai keluar bekerja pada setiap Isnin hingga Sabtu.Bahkan, mereka juga menyediakan perkhidmatan penghantaran di sekitar kawasan Batu 7 Jalan Airport bagi sup cendawan dan minuman panas dengan hanya mengenakan caj serendah RM1.Nampaknya idea menjual makanan dengan RM1 ini menjadi ikutan buat peniaga lain juga. Salah satunya gerai di Jitra, Kedah yang mana gerainya telah disiarkan di dalam berita Astro Awani baru-baru ini. Dikatakan gerai itu menjual cendol, laksa, mee sup dan banyak lagi dengan harga RM1! Memang murah!Saksikan video di bawah:

Kalau kita lihat, sekarang makin ramai anak muda yang terjun dalam bidang perniagaan, tak kiralah sama ada di tepi jalan, online, ataupun di kedai. Ini patut dijadikan contoh buat belia di luar sana. Betul tak?

Are These Malaysian Kids Being Smuggled To 'Organ Farms' Across The Thai Border?

Recently, there have been rumours that children are being smuggled for their organs somewhere along the Malaysia-Thailand border

Image via Facebook

Image via Facebook

The story, shared on social media sites to warn parents to be careful, alleges that children are being kidnapped, then sold to human traffickers who harvest their organs for sale in the black market.  Several gruesome images depicting a girl trussed up in a cardboard box as well as an image showing a group of children being lined up like livestock were included in these postings. Quite a number of Malaysian portals have picked up this particular story and featured it on their site, receiving thousands of shares and likes for the articles they published on the alleged news.

However, it is highly possible that this story, one that has been widely shared, was falsified and made-up

An example of a social media post about the alleged smuggling of Malaysian children in order to sell their organs.
Image via Facebook

It is believed that there are several 'versions' of the same story that are being circulated online.In one version, it is said that children were being smuggled from Malaysia to Thailand but perpetrators were caught at Bukit Kayu Hitam border checkpoint when the Thai authorities found a van filled with hundreds of dead Malaysian children without organs in their bodies.  In another version of the story, children were purportedly sedated and stuffed into boxes. These children are then transported to Thailand where they would be killed for their organs. Meanwhile, there were also claims that about 700 kids without internal organs were found in Thailand.  However, all of these could be mere fabrication even as the posts were accompanied with the same photos despite the difference in their content.

The most obvious tell-tale sign lies on the box depicted in one of the images that is being circulated in these viral posts

Image via Facebook

A quick search on Google reveals that SanQua is an Indonesian brand of bottled water produced by a company named PT. Tirta Mas Perkasa. Interestingly, SanQua is not available in Malaysia nor Thailand.This is the biggest clue to uncover whether this story is true or a hoax: Indonesia.

The images of a girl stuffed in a box is not doctored and the girl in question is, in fact, a victim of murder that happened in Indonesia last year

Image via awdionline

Nine-year-old Putri Nur Fauziah was tragically murdered after she was sexually assaulted. She was then stuffed into a cardboard box and dumped in an illegal garbage site in Kamal subdistrict, Kalideres, West Jakarta in October 2015.  It's clear that the images are not photos of a child that was kidnapped and smuggled in a cardboard box to become an organ donor, but of a horrifying real-life murder case. Unfortunately for the innocent child, even after suffering so much at the hands of her murderer, people are still circulating and using her photos for fake, unsubstantial stories.

Similarly, the image depicting the group of children is believed to be real - except that it originated from Syria

The Ghouta chemical attack in August 2013 killed dozens of children.
Image via HRW

The photo is believed to have originated from the Ghouta chemical attack that occurred in Ghouta, Syria on August 2013. The attack saw one of the deadliest use of chemical weapons in recent years with the death toll ranging from at least 281 people to 1,729. These are Syrian children, victims of the deadly chemical attack, and not Malaysian children as claimed.

It is believed that these rumours of child smuggling bid into Thailand have been around for more than two years

Back in 2014, it was reported that the police had denied speculations that children were being smuggled in a lorry to Thailand from Bukit Kayu Hitam.Earlier this month, the police have also refuted claims that children are being smuggled into Thailand as part of the organ trafficking syndicate.  "I advise the public to stop spreading this case and not to easily believe any kind of incidents that is going viral on social media," Kedah police chief Datuk Asri Yusoff was quoted as saying by Berita Harian.

8% Atau 11%, Mana Satu Yang Anda Patut Pilih? Teruskan Membaca

Dalam pembentangan Bajet 2016 Januari lalu, Perdana Menteri, Najib Razak telah mengumumkan pengurangan kadar caruman pekerja untuk Kumpulan Wang Simpanan Pekerja (KWSP) sebanyak 3%.

Image via www.themalaysianinsider.com

Ini bermaksud caruman lama 11% diturunkan kepada 8%. Namun, pekerja boleh memilih sama ada sebanyak 8% atau 11% kadar yang ingin dikreditkan ke dalam akaun KWSP mereka pada setiap bulan.Ini selaras dengan salah satu objektif utama Bajet Malaysia 2016 iaitu untuk merangsang pertumbuhan dan meningkatkan pendapatan rakyat seterusnya meningkatkan perbelanjaan pengguna.

Image via www.bicara.news

Namun adakah perbezaan dua angka ini memberi kesan terhadap kehidupan seharian setiap individu bekerja? Adakah ia juga turut memberi kesan terhadap pelaburan masa depan seseorang individu? Apa pula perbezaan antara individu yang perlu membayar cukai pendapatan dengan mereka yang tidak perlu membayar cukai pendapatan?

Image via groupdolaljabar.blogspot.my

OK, mari kita lakukan sedikit kira-kira.

Pengurangan kadar 3% terhadap bukan pembayar cukai pendapatan

Menurut Bajet 2015, pembayar cukai yang berkeluarga dan memperoleh pendapatan sebanyak RM4,000 sebulan tidak akan mempunyai liabiliti bayaran cukai. Ini bermaksud isi rumah ini tidak perlu membayar cukai pendapatan.Berikut adalah nilai berapa banyak pengurangan 3% dalam sumbangan KWSP daripada Mac 2016 hingga Mac 2017 memberi kesan terhadap isi rumah terbabit:

Image via imgur.com

Ini bermaksud anda mendapat lebih RM120 setiap bulan jika anda memilih caruman KWSP sebanyak 8% sebulan. Jadi untuk setahun, anda mendapat lebih RM1,440 berbanding jika anda memilih caruman sebanyak 11%.Ini juga bermaksud anda hanya menyimpan sebanyak RM3,840 setahun di dalam akaun KWSP berbanding jika anda memilih caruman sebanyak 11%, anda dapat mengumpul sebanyak RM5,280 dalam masa setahun.

Image via www.art4business.com

Jadi perbezaannya adalah sebanyak RM1440. Bagaimana dengan nilai dividen yang kita perolehi pula? Kita ambil nilai dividen tertinggi setakat ini iaitu 6.75% pada tahun 2014 sebagai contoh:6.75%  x  3840 (potongan 8%)= RM259.206.75%  x  5280 (potongan 11%)= RM356.40Jadi, jika anda memilih caruman sebanyak 8%, anda berjaya mengumpul sebanyak RM4099.20 setahun manakala jika anda memilih caruman sebanyak 11%, anda berjaya mengumpul sebanyak RM5636.40 setahun di dalam akaun anda.Kesimpulannya, jika anda merupakan seorang yang memerlukan wang yang lebih untuk masa sekarang caruman bolehlah dibuat sebanyak 8% sahaja. Ia bergantung pada diri anda sendiri.

Image via www.freemalaysiatoday.com

Pengurangan kadar 3% terhadap pembayar cukai pendapatan

Kita ambil contoh pendapatan individu yang berkeluarga sebanyak RM5,000. Berikut adalah nilai berapa banyak pengurangan 3% dalam sumbangan KWSP daripada Mac 2016 hingga Mac 2017 memberi kesan terhadap isi rumah terbabit:

Image via imgur.com

Ini bermaksud anda mendapat lebih RM150 setiap bulan jika anda memilih potongan kwsp sebanyak 8% sebulan. Jadi untuk setahun anda mendapat lebih RM1,800 berbanding jika anda memilih caruman sebanyak 11%.Bagaimanapun, buat pembayar cukai pendapatan, kiraan bayaran cukai perlu diambil kira.

Image via imgur.com

Perbezaan kedua-dua cukai tersebut ialah RM180. Ini bermaksud anda membayar lebih RM180 sekiranya caruman yang dibuat adalah sebanyak 8%. Bagaimanapun jumlah potongan di dalam akaun KWSP untuk caruman sebanyak 11% adalah tinggi berbanding 8% iaitu RM6,600 setahun berbanding RM4,800 setahun. Ini belum lagi ditambah dengan dividen untuk tahun terbabit.Oleh itu, nilai RM1,800 yang anda terima itu adalah sebenarnya kurang setelah ditolakkan dengan nilai perbezaan cukai tadi.RM1,800 - RM180 = RM1,620.

Image via www.themalaysianinsider.com

Dapat disimpulkan bahawa perbezaan antara nilai caruman buat pembayar cukai pendapatan sebenarnya tidak memberi banyak perubahan terhadap jumlah wang yang diterima mereka berbanding dengan individu yang tidak membayar cukai pendapatan. Dapat dikatakan bahawa sama ada 8% atau 11%, ia tidak memberi apa-apa kesan terhadap pembayar cukai.Bagaimanapun, buat individu yang tidak membayar cukai pendapatan, semuanya terletak di tangan anda. Jika anda merasakan nilai RM120 sebulan itu benar-benar membantu kos kehidupan anda sebulan, maka tiada salah untuk memilihnya. Namun, jika tidak anda boleh memilih caruman 11% yang mana membawa kepada nilai pelaburan yang lebih besar pada masa hadapan.

[PHOTOS] Would You Eat Rainbow-Coloured Roti Canai?

Have you ever wondered what roti canai would look like if you added colour to it? Yeah, neither did we... but that didn't stop a newly-opened Singaporean restaurant from making rainbow pratas anyway.

Image via Banana Leaf Pork Briyani Facebook

For those who are not aware, roti canai is known as roti prata in Singapore.

Though the restaurant - Banana Leaf Pork Briyani -
 just opened for business earlier this month, the rainbow prata had become a big hit on social media after they posted a video of how it's made on Facebook:

Yes !!! We are very innovative and we are very happy about that .
We want to Surprise you with our creativity and make life just as colourful as our Pratas.
We have EGG Colour Prata toooo
We are at wave 9 , directly opposite Blk 778 Woodlands .Posted by Banana Leaf Pork Briyani on Sunday, 10 September 2017

Available in bright shades of blue, green, and pink (the restaurant hopes to add more colour options in the future), the colourful pratas are also available in thosai form

Image via Banana Leaf Pork Briyani Facebook

The pratas are served with chicken or pork curry, and you can also opt to have egg or cheese added to it.More info on the restaurant here.

But wait a minute. We did some digging and found out that several food vendors in Malaysia were already making multi-coloured roti canai since as early as 2015.

Image via detikFOOD

The most popular one is probably Pak Lah Roti Canai at Kampung Permatang Keriang in Penaga, Penang, who introduced coloured roti canai into his menu in August 2015. After he was featured on The Star, foodies flocked to his stall from as far as Kuala Lumpur, Johor, and even Brunei and Thailand to check out his colourful roti canai. Apparently, Pak Ayob Tip Top Corner at Pantai Dalam, Kuala Lumpur also makes multi-coloured "hipster" roti canai, as well as a stall in Kemaman, Terengganu.

Here's where it gets interesting - the colourful roti canai actually comes in various flavours, with each colour representing a particular flavour

Image via detikFOOD

Colouring is added to the dough to create blue, pink, green, yellow, and brown roti canai, which comes in vanilla, strawberry, pandan, banana, and chocolate respectively.

Props for the creativity, but we're just gonna stick to plain-looking, not-at-all-coloured roti canai. :p

Schools & Tuition Centres Will Reopen From 15 July. Here Are 6 Things You Should Know

The Ministry of Education (MOE) made several important announcements related to the reopening of schools at a press conference today, 1 July

Education Minister Dr Mohd Radzi Md Jidin revealed that all students from Year 5 to Form 6 are to go back to school starting from Wednesday, 15 July. Year 1 to Year 4 students will be allowed to attend school a week later, on 22 July.The MOE made this decision following advice from the Ministry of Health and the National Security Council.

Image via SAYS/Facebook

Here are six points you might have missed in the Education Minister's speech:

1. Schools will be required to follow one of three learning models unveiled by the MOE

The models are:- Single session schooling: For schools that have the space to safely accommodate all students at once. They will operate as per usual.- Two-session schooling: For schools that can only accommodate students in two sessions.- Rotation: For schools that are unable to host all students while safely adhering to standard operating procedures (SOPs). However, Form 5 and 6 students will be required to attend school daily. Meanwhile, primary school students will attend school based on their classes or year. Their education will be a combination of home-based learning and face-to-face classes.According to Dr Radzi Jidin, schools will be notified of which model they are to implement a week prior to the school's reopening.

2. Tuition and learning centres will also be allowed to open on 15 July

Those that are registered with the MOE will be able to open at the same time as other schools. Schools and centres that are not registered with the ministry are similarly encouraged to open on the given dates.

3. Starting today, 1 July, students who applied for Form 6 will be able to check their offers

Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) 2019 leavers will be able to check the status of their offers on the MOE's portal. They can then register for classes on 15 July.

Image via IAMK Learning Centre

4. Boarding schools will have to follow specific guidelines, especially in regards to accommodation

Boarding schools which have enough space for students to practise social distancing will be allowed to operate as per normal. However, those with limited room should consider bringing back students incrementally. Initially, students should only be allowed to sleep on the bottom bunk of a double-decker bed. After two weeks, these students will occupy the top bed while returning students take the bottom bunk. All students should be allowed to return in 24 to 48 days, depending on the size of the student body.

5. Co-curricular activities and sports are still prohibited

The Education Minister noted that it is still not safe for students to participate in co-curricular and sporting activities, adding that they should only be going to school for academic purposes.

6. Dr Radzi Jidin addressed the changes made to year-end holidays

He explained, "Our priority is to ensure the students have enough time to prepare for the upcoming year." The Education Minister continued by saying that they have found remote learning to be less effective than face-to-face classes. The MOE has therefore decided to stick to the reduced holiday of two weeks to allow sufficient time for students to learn all their content.

Microsoft Reveals Siri's New Rival Named 'Cortana' For Windows Phone 8.1

Microsoft Has Introduced Its Long-Awaited Answer To Siri And Google Now And It Is Indeed Called Cortana. It's Named After The Artificial Intelligence Character Halo.

The new Windows Phone 8.1 update comes with Microsoft's long-rumored personal assistant Cortana.
Image via mshcdn.com

Microsoft's Joe Belfiore, head of Windows Phone product and design, unveiled the personal assistant software for Windows Phone onstage at the company's annual Build conference in San Francisco.

        cnet.com

Cortana is powered by Bing, and can perform many of the functions one has come to expect from artificial intelligence-style assistants, such as setting reminders and powering vocal updates to one's calendar.

        bbc.com

Cortana Is Currently In Beta And Will Roll Out Only In The US On 8 April, The Date That Windows Phone 8.1 Will Be Released

Microsoft's Joe Belfiore shows off one of Cortana's distinctive features
Image via bgr.in

The feature will arrive first in the US, followed by the UK and China in the second half of this year and additional countries in 2015.

        pcmag.com

The Voice Behind The Software Is Of Jen Taylor, The Voice Actress Of The Character From The Halo series

Fans of the Halo video game franchise will recognize the voice of Windows Phone 8.1's new Cortana voice assistant: It's voice actress Jen Taylor, who voiced the character in the video game.

        usatoday.com

The beta version of Cortana that will launch in coming months actually uses more than one source, including synthesized voices. But over time, the feature's voice will become more and more centered on Taylor. For now, Taylor's voice is behind many of the "chit-chat" exchanges on the phone. In a demonstration Wednesday, Sullivan asked Cortana "who is your father?" Her response: "Technically speaking, that'd be Bill Gates. No big deal."

        usatoday.com

Cortana Is Powered By Bing, And Can Perform Many Of The Functions One Has Come To Expect From Artificial Intelligence-Style Assistants

Image via pcmag.com

Cortana is powered by Microsoft's Bing search engine and essentially replaces the search function on a Windows Phone smartphone. You can use it to make phone calls, send texts, take a note or give you a reminder.

        cnet.com

Cortana has a "notebook" where you can store your interests, places you frequent, calendar, relationships with friends, family and colleagues and your "quiet hours." So for instance, during your quiet hours you can let only certain calls come through.

        thenextweb.com

Image via inferse.com

The more you use the search function the more Cortana learns about you, by asking you if you want her to store it. The new feature adds functionality to Windows Phones that Apple and Google's Android customers have come to know through Siri (Apple) and Google Now (Android).

        usatoday.com

It Also Supports Searches For Content Stored Locally On Your Device And Works With Third-Party Apps Like Skype, Hulu And Facebook

Image via tnwcdn.com

Best of all, Cortana can be extended with third-party apps (Skype, Hulu, and Facebook were all shown off), which is naturally why Microsoft is revealing her at its developer conference.

        thenextweb.com

The Skype service will come with deeper integration with the Windows Phone 8.1's latest virtual voice assistant, Cortana. Cortana can now be used to quickly start and end calls using voice commands. A simple voice command, for instance "Skype, get Lara Kingwell on video", will start the Skype app, search for the particular person, and make a call.

        ndtv.com

During The Demo, Cortana's Ability To Respond To Dynamic Questions About Weather, Sport Scores, And Search Engine Queries Like Food Calorie Counts Were Showed Off

Image via laptopmag.com

"What's the story of the next Halo game?" Belfiore asked in jest, clearly setting up an example of the oft-lampooned Siri exchanges that lead to Apple's software spitting out a comical pseudo-human response. Cortana responded, "I'm quite certain you don't have proper security clearance for that information."

        cnet.com

The assistant appeared to take a stumble, however, when Belfiore attempted to get Cortana to convert temperatures. From Fahrenheit to Celsius worked smoothly, but from there to Kelvin -- worded as "what about Kelvin?" -- kept pushing Cortana back to Celsius, an interesting display of the assistant's limitations in understanding more colloquially-worded follow-up questions.

Dr Mahathir: DAP Will Be Kingmaker If The Malay Votes Are Split

In an exclusive interview with Malaysiakini that was published today, 12 September, former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad once again shared his divisive views about the Malays and Chinese people

According to the two-time former prime minister of Malaysia, the non-Malays will become the kingmaker in elections if the political divide among Malays is further split by Malay-based parties."That is the role that the minority in any constituency can play. So if we split the Malays, whether you like it or not, DAP or MCA will determine who is going to win. Not us," Dr Mahathir told Malaysiakini.The 95-year-old politician was sharing his thoughts about "not splitting the Malay votes" among a new multiracial political party that his protégé, Syed Saddiq Abdul Rahman, is working to set up and his own Parti Pejuang Tanah Air (PEJUANG) that he formed together with his son, Mukhriz Mahathir, last month.

Image via Mukhriz Hazim/Malaysiakini

Dr Mahathir used the 1969 general election as the basis of his reasoning that further division of the Malays in politics will leave the power to determine who wins an election in the hands of other races

"In 1964, I won the election in Kota Setar Selatan by 4,200 votes. This means that I was strong. In the constituency, there were 40,000 voters of which 35,000 of them are Malays. At that time, I was quite popular. That's why I won the 1964 votes — because the Malays supported me," the Malaysiakini interview quoted the nonagenarian as saying."In 1969, I expected to win. But because of my promotion of the Malays then, which might be seen as too much, the Chinese were not happy with me that Lee Kuan Yew called me as the 'Malay Ultra'. So, they wanted me to lose at my constituency. Not that they were against the alliance then, just me and maybe a few others too."According to the PEJUANG chairman, the Chinese took away votes from him by 3,000 and gave it to PAS."What happened was they took away the Chinese votes from me by 3,000. Even with 3,000 votes down, I would still have 1,200 more. But the problem was they gave it to PAS, so I lost by 900 votes," he said, adding that this is why he is not fond of the idea of having too many political parties.He, however, defended his decision to form PEJUANG, claiming that it had become necessary after he was sacked from Bersatu which he formed together with Muhyiddin Yassin in 2016.

Image via MHDaily

The Langkawi Member of Parliament (MP), who has served the country for over two decades as prime minister, argued that the concept of multiracial parties may benefit all the other races, but not the Malays

"When I was a boy, the Chinese, Indians, and Malays were all poor. All of them. The Chinese came here as labourers, the Indians came here as rubber tappers, and the Malays were also poor paddy farmers. Then we made plans to develop the country. And who had improved since? The opportunities were all the same, we even gave some advantages to the Malays but the Malays are not developing well," he said.According to Dr Mahathir, this is because the Malays don't know how to handle special treatment."When we give them contracts to help them become rich, they sell the contracts. The same happened to AP licenses and also land pieces that were given to the Malays to develop. They sold them," he argued."So you have to understand the weaknesses of the Malays to handle this problem."

Wan Azizah: Terengganu, Kelantan, And 5 Other States Refuse To Ban Child Marriage

Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail revealed that several states have refused to amend the law on minimum age for marriages

Image via The Straits Times

Malaysiakini reported that the Deputy Prime Minister addressed the issue to the Dewan Rakyat during Minister's Question Time on 19 November.

She mentioned that the federal government is facing difficulties banning child marriages nationwide because seven states are not cooperating.

"Mending the enactment or legal ordinance on minimum age for marriages can only happen if all the states agree with the proposed amendments."

The states are namely Sarawak, Pahang, Terengganu, Perlis, Negeri Sembilan, Kedah, and Kelantan

Meanwhile, Selangor has amended the enactment while the Federal Territories are in the process of amending it."Five other states that have agreed to amend [the law] are Penang, Sabah, Johor, Melaka and Perak," she said, as reported by Malay Mail.

Women's rights group Sisters in Islam (SIS) has come forward and demanded the federal government to take matters into their own hands for the sake of the children

A statement on their Facebook page read, "The Pakatan Harapan government needs to explain what is being done to compel the seven states that refuse to cooperate."

They also added that seven states who refuse to cooperate in banning child marriage need to explain to all Malaysians their reasons for their decision.

The group emphasised, "Sisters in Islam strongly reiterate our call that the minimum age of marriage must be raised to 18 years old for both boys and girls, Muslim and non-Muslims, with no exceptions."

'Korean' Conman Scams M'sian Woman Of RM3.9 Million That She Inherited From Late Husband

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

An elderly woman in Penang lost RM3.9 million that she inherited from her late husband when she fell victim to a love scam

The scheme started in December 2021, when the 63-year-old got to know a 'South Korean' man through Instagram who told her he worked in a foreign oil rig.The pair eventually moved to WhatsApp to communicate via text and voice call, according to New Straits Times.The man reportedly vowed to take care of her for the rest of her life and influenced her into investing in his oil rig project, saying it would give her profitable returns. "To convince her, the man frequently sent her photos and videos of him purportedly driving to work or while at work in an oil rig," said Penang police chief Shuhaily Zain at a press conference yesterday, 21 March.

The man asked her to bank in the money to him in stages, so she made a total of 184 transactions from last December until March 2022

The senior citizen transferred between RM9,000 and RM50,000 in each transaction to 19 local bank accounts, reported Bernama."I am sure the suspect realised the bank's threshold and did not want to raise any alarm, hence he asked for small amounts," said Shuhaily.One day, the woman was surfing the Internet and found that a search of the man's pictures came back with similar pictures, but with other people's faces on them.Suspecting that the photos he sent her had been edited and that she may have been cheated, she gathered her courage to make a police report on 17 March.The case is being investigated under Section 420 of the Penal Code.

Police are still tracking down the suspect and believe that the modus operandi is often used by Nigerian scammers to con women on social media

Shuhaily added that the victim had given the conman all the money left to her by her husband — which were savings during his career as a businessman — amounting to RM3.9 million.He advised the public to be careful while using social media and not to transfer money to people they had just met.


Photos Of Woman Lying On Driver's Lap While Travelling 70KM/H On Highway Go Viral

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

Photos showing a woman lying on a driver's lap while travelling in a Perodua Myvi on a highway have recently gone viral on Twitter

A tweet published by @mynewshub claimed the photos were taken on a highway, believed to be the North-South Expressway, on Sunday, 9 April.At the time, they were travelling from Ayer Keroh, Melaka to Pedas Linggi, Negeri Sembilan."If you want to be romantic, go to the forest," the tweet read, adding, "(The Myvi) was driving at 70km/h in the middle lane. I noticed (the car since it started driving) from Ayer Keroh to Pedas Linggi. It didn't change lanes at all, and didn't seem to be a P licence driver."The photos show the woman resting her head on the driver's lap while facing up in the vehicle, possibly engaging in a conversation with the driver or sleeping.

At the time of writing, the tweet has gone viral with over 945,000 views and 2,900 likes

The photos garnered mixed reactions from Twitter users, with one saying that maybe the people in the Myvi were a married couple and the person who took the photos could be slandering them.To which @mynewshub replied that even if they were a married couple, their action was a road safety issue."Road safety is the priority, and the same goes for the person who took the photos. Both were in the wrong," wrote a netizen."She was sleeping but accused of engaging in something romantic," said another person with crying emojis.One Twitter user added, "Even if she wanted to lie down, she should have lowered the backrest and not lay on the driver's lap. If they got into an accident, her head would be cracked."

Uptown Danau Kota 'Bernyawa' Buat Kali Terakhir Semalam, Bakal Pindah Ke Tempat Baru

Semalam, 29 Oktober 2019 merupakan hari terakhir buat peniaga Uptown Danau Kota menjalankan perniagaan selepas 13 tahun beroperasi

Image via fbcdn.net

Uptown Danau Kota begitu sinonim dengan warga kota Kuala Lumpur pada waktu malam. Ia merupakan salah satu tempat kegemaran bagi ramai orang untuk membeli belah dan mendapatkan barangan pada harga yang lebih berpatutan.Selain itu, pelbagai pilihan makanan dan minuman juga merupakan antara tarikan utama Uptown Danau Kota. Ada juga yang hanya datang ke situ untuk 'cuci mata' dan bersiar-siar dengan rakan-rakan sambil selami uptown vibe yang tidak mungkin boleh dapat di tempat lain.

Uptown Danau Kota telah mengukir seribu satu kenangan dan mulai hari ini, ia sudah tidak 'bernyawa' lagi

Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur (DBKL) telah mengeluarkan notis pemindahan pada 4 Oktober 2019.Dalam notis tersebut, DBKL mengarahkan peniaga untuk berpindah dan mengosongkan tapak mulai 30 Oktober 2019. Sekiranya gagal, pihak DBKL mempunyai hak untuk mengambil tindakan seperti kompaun, sita, dan roboh tanpa sebarang notis.

Image via Twitter @AsalGombak

Selepas ini, tapak perniagaan akan berpindah di sebelah JPJ Wangsa Maju dan akan diberi nama Bazaria Wangsa Maju

Perkara ini telah diumumkan oleh laman Twitter Asal Gombak.

Image via Twitter @AsalGombak

Menerusi rangkaian bebenang Asal Gombak, para peniaga akan diberi tapak sementara yang tidak jauh dari tapak asal sebelum berpindah ke Bazaria Wangsa Maju kerana projek tersebut masih belum siap.Tapak sementara terletak di bekas loji bersebelahan dengan SK Danau Kota.

Image via Twitter @AsalGombak

Laman Facebook rasmi Uptown Danau Kota bagaimanapun menerima berita ini dengan pahit sambil menceritakan tentang perit jerih dan betapa payahnya mereka membina nama

Image via Twitter @AsalGombak

"Betapa seksa, jerit perih dan payahnya untuk menjadi begitu gah dan popular sehingga dikenali di seluruh Asia Tenggara setanding dengan China Town. Bermula dengan hanya beberapa tapak gerai, sehingga mencecah ratusan gerai."Masa nak cari tapak di Danau bukan main merayu untuk berniaga di sana. Kita menguruskan sekian lama dan telah masuk tahun ke 13 wujudnya Uptown Danau Kota ini. Kenapa baru sekarang mahu mencantas? Senangnya mereka nak meraih keuntungan dari hasil titik peluh orang yang berjuang berniaga seawal mungkin," tulis status berkenaan.

Menurut laman Asal Gombak, ada banyak lagi isu yang timbul dari pelbagai pihak termasuklah peniaga, penduduk dan penguatkuasa sepanjang cadangan pemindahan ini dikemukakan

Banyak lagi sebenarnya isu dari pelbagai pihak termasuklah peniaga, penduduk dan penguatkuasa sepanjang cadangan pemindahan ini.Bukan mudah untuk kita judge setiap keputusan yang dibuat sebab ianya mengambil kira dari semua pihak. pic.twitter.com/QGdkDJfbZO— Asal Gombak (@AsalGombak) October 30, 2019

"Semoga isu pemindahan tapak ini selesai, dan memberi manfaat kepada kedua-dua belah pihak. Terima kasih, Uptown Danau Kota," tulis Asal Gombak sebelum mengakhiri bebenang.

Man Who Joined A Girl's Birthday Party Was Told To Pay RM920 Despite Eating Just A Burger

An incident of a Malaysian man who was told to pay RM920 for attending a birthday party has become a hot topic on social media, prompting netizens and even brands to jump on the bandwagon

The man was invited to join a woman's birthday party at an upscale restaurant in Kuala Lumpur. According to Sin Chew Daily, the man was reluctant to join as he was not close with the birthday woman's friends, but in the end, promised to show up anyway.The relationship between the man and the birthday woman is unclear, but screenshots of chat history between the two show that they often flirt with one another, with the latter claiming that the man is her "type".

Image via 尹天愁 (Facebook)

During the birthday dinner, the man ordered himself a burger that cost RM88 and a drink, but the rest of the attendees were having a feast, ordering alcohol and multiple dishes

The group of eight ended up eating a meal that cost a whopping RM3,679.Based on a photo of the receipt, it is learned that the group ordered two bottles of Italian wine Barbera d'Alba that cost RM404 each, as well as two premium Japanese steaks costing RM396 and RM456 each, among other things.The group then decided to split the bill evenly, thus making each attendee pay RM460 per person.The man reportedly paid his share anyway.

Image via Sin Chew Daily

But that is not all. The man was told to foot the bill for the birthday woman's share as well, totalling to RM920.

Infuriated by the request, the man refused to pay the extra RM460 and it led to one of the woman's friends taking to social media to ridicule the man, reported China Press.However, her plan backfired with many netizens attacking her for demanding that the man pay an unfair amount.Netizens contended that since the man had already paid RM460 despite just eating a burger, it is unreasonable for him to pay another RM460 for the birthday woman's share as well.To make matters worse, an Instagram Story filmed during the dinner by one of the woman's friends claims that the man is a "stranger who is just sitting with us".It prompted more netizens to defend the man.

After the issue blew up, the man broke his silence

Taking to Facebook, he asked netizens not to attack the birthday woman and her friends.According to the man, the said friend had apologised to him over a phone call and urged netizens to stop harassing the women."After some pondering, as a man, I feel like we should not blow small matters out of proportion," he said."I heard that the person's voice on the phone sounds very sad.""After all, they are women. They did nothing wrong. The problem with the money has also been resolved as everyone has come to share the bill. Thank you for everyone's help and I love you all."

The man's statement urging netizens to stop harassing the women involved.

The incident, however, is still on everyone's lips at the time of writing, even with brands making references to the issue on social media

Among them is GSC, writing on Facebook, "No need to be water fish. Book an entire hall with less than RM460."While KL Foodie uploaded a video about burgers, with a caption that reads, "10 must-try burgers in Klang Valley that won't cost you a fortune (RM460)."Even the restaurant where the group of friends celebrated the birthday party at, Banyan Tree Kuala Lumpur, had today, 7 October, posted a video of the burger which the man ate.The restaurant called it "The Original '460' Burger" at Horizon Grill.

Meanwhile, this man's crazy night out resulted in a new furry friend:
