The announcement that the Sedition Act will not only be retained but be strengthened to protect the sanctity of Islam and other religions sent ripples among lawmakers in the Dewan Rakyat.

Members Of Najib's Party Rallies Behind Him, Defending The Need For The Sedition Act To Maintain Peace

Image via truestory.my

Yesterday, Umno leaders rallied behind him, with vice-president Zahid Hamidi saying that Mr Najib was showing he "understands the heart of his people". Deputy president Muhyiddin Yassin, who had led the charge to protect the Sedition Act, said defending the law "doesn't mean the transformation has failed".

        stasiareport.com

Datuk Othman Aziz (BN-Jerlun) supported Prime Minister Datuk Najib Tun Razak’s announcement to retain the Act. “We need to remember that we live in a multi-racial country where peace and harmony has been maintained all this while through such laws,” he said when met at the Parliament lobby yesterday.

IGP Backs Sedition Act And Wants Improvement For Easier Prosecution

Image via themalaymailonline.com

The Sedition Act should be “improved” to make it easier for authorities to prosecute those who violate the law, Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar said. Despite the already low threshold of the law that criminalises speech with an undefined “seditious tendency” and without need to prove intent, Khalid urged the Attorney-General’s Chambers to draft amendments soon that will help police present charges against those accused of sedition.

        themalaymailonline.com

“I welcome the retention of the Sedition Act in conditions when the freedom of speech, opinion, writing and many more have been misused. This Act is a law that is very suited to address the problem,” Khalid was quoted as saying by Malay daily Utusan Malaysia today. “We also ask that some parts (of the Sedition Act) be reinforced to, among others, make the process of charging those responsible for such crimes,” he continued.

Despite His Support, Pak Lah Reminds UMNO That They Can't Use Sedition Act To Stay In Power

Image via themalaysianinsider.com

"In our enthusiasm to retain the Sedition Act, I remind Umno members that the act is not to be used to keep Umno in power. Umno's power and strength comes from the people's support. Remember, if the people no longer support us, there is no law on God's earth that can save Umno from losing power," Abdullah said.

        themalaysianinsider.com

"I support the decision to retain or amend any laws that protect national harmony, that uphold our constitution, that affirm the social contract forged by our forefathers. And that ensures that the federation of Malaysia is not destroyed by irresponsible people. All this, I support," he said before stating his caution.

Opposition Leader, Anwar Ibrahim, Continues To Voice His Protest Of The Sedition Act

Opposition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim continued his criticism of Umno's support for the Sedition Act, saying the party knew no shame in wanting to retain the colonial-era law to protect Malay interests.

        themalaysianinsider.com

"Is it not embarrassing to the Malay community? To save the Malays, laws are needed so they can arrest and abuse others," he said in response to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak's announcement yesterday at the Umno general assembly that the Sedition Act would be retained and strengthened.

Reacting strongly to the decision by the prime minister to retain the Sedition Act 1948, PAS deputy president Mohamad Sabu criticised Najib Razak for being weak willed and not having a mind of his own. “We will fight it. We will mobilise the rakyat to reject it the way they rejected the ISA and Police Act until the government gives in and abolishes the Sedition Act,” he said.

        freemalaysiatoday.com

Datuk Mahfuz Omar (PAS-Pokok Sena) said Najib had broken his promise to repeal the Act for his own political survival owing to strong pressure from Umno. Wong Chen (PKR-Kelana Jaya) said it would be a “dark, dark day” when the Act would be expanded, and this opened up chances for “a new crackdown”. Dr Ko Chung Sen (DAP-Kampar) said it was not only a U-turn by the Prime Minister but to strengthen the Act was “twice the tyranny”.

"Secondly, we will insert a clause so that action is taken against anyone who calls for the cessation of Sabah and Sarawak," said Najib today in his policy speech at the Umno general assembly.

Najib said he decided this after considering feedback from Umno deputy president Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, Wanita Umno, Pemuda Umno, Puteri Umno, the grassroots, as well as non-governmental organisations. "Hence I, as the prime minister, decided that the Sedition Act 1948 will remain," he said, amid roars of approval from the delegates gathered at the Putra World Trade Centre in Kuala Lumpur.

Klang Sessions Court Sentences Man To 1,050 Years In Jail For Raping His Stepdaughter

Klang Sessions Court has sentenced a man to 1,050 years in jail and 24 strokes of the cane for repeatedly raping his stepdaughter since she was 12 years old

The accused committed the crime 105 times at a house in Sungai Way, Petaling Jaya, Selangor between 5 Jan 2018 until 24 Feb 2020, reported Bernama.He was charged under Section 376B of the Penal Code for committing incest by raping, which carries a penalty between 10 and 30 years' imprisonment and whipping.Judge Datin M Kunasundary meted out the sentence on Wednesday, 27 January, after the accused pleaded guilty to raping his now 14-year-old stepdaughter over a period of two years.He was unrepresented and did not beg for leniency.

Image via Harian Metro

The prosecutor team had earlier asked the court to impose a heavy custodial sentence and the maximum strokes of the cane on the accused as the case is of public interest

"As a stepfather of the victim, he should have been responsible for protecting the victim, but instead, he destroyed her self-worth. His action will cause life-long trauma to the victim," said deputy public prosecutor Nurul Qistini Qamarul Abrar."Incest cases are appalling and condemnable offences and viewed seriously by every level of society, regardless of religion.""The action of the accused is akin to haruan makan anak (a snakehead fish eating its own fry) and viewed seriously by the general public, which is not just against the law but against religious teachings as well."Nurul Qistini urged the court to let the sentence run consecutively. If the sentence was run concurrently, the accused would be imprisoned up to a maximum of 30 years only.

After hearing the argument presented by the prosecutor team, Kunasundary set the lowest custodial sentence for each offence, but the jail term will run consecutively

Kunasundary ordered the accused to serve 10 years in jail for each of his 105 offences. Thus, the man will be imprisoned for 1,050 years in total. The proceedings took almost five hours to read out each charge individually."I hope you will repent while in prison. You should not have committed a violent act and although the punishment is minimum, the court feels this is sufficient by taking into account the number of charges against you," said the judge.

Image via Viet Nam News

According to the court document, the accused married the victim's mother in  November 2016 after the latter divorced the victim's biological father in 2015

Every time the accused committed the heinous crime, the victim and the accused were alone in the house.He threatened the child not to tell anyone or else he would hit her.The victim only revealed she was violated by her stepfather after her mother brought her to their aunt's house.

Follow This Schedule To Balik Kampung If You Don’t Wanna Get Stuck In A 10-Hour Jam

Chinese New Year is soon upon us, and with that comes the hectic balik kampung traffic. As per tradition every year, PLUS has provided a few pointers for those travelling during the festive season.

The company estimates about 1.6 million vehicles will use the North-South Expressway on peak days during the CNY holiday, an increase of 10.3% as compared to normal days

Image via Malay Mail Online

As such, PLUS has identified measures to help distribute traffic on the highway by offering toll rebate during selected non-peak days and issuing a Travel Time Advisory (TTA).

A 20% toll rebate will be given to PLUSMiles and Touch 'n Go cardholders on four off-peak days

Image via New Straits Times

PLUS managing director Datuk Azman Ismail said the offer is applicable on 12, 14, 20, and 21 February. However, motorists will still be charged the full toll amount on those dates. The rebates will be reimbursed in the form of reloads into their PLUSMiles or Touch 'n Go cards when they top up their cards at PLUS customer service centres from 15 March to 14 June 2018. The rebate is not applicable to toll payments at Bangunan Sultan Iskandar, Tanjung Kupang, and Penang Bridge Toll Plazas.

Apart from toll rebates, PLUS has released a table with suggested departure times for motorists travelling from different states

Image via PLUS

Highway users from Klang Valley heading towards further destinations such as Johor, Perlis, Kedah, Penang, and North Perak are advised to enter the highway before 10.00am.For those heading towards nearer locations such as Selangor, Negeri Sembilan, Melaka, Central Perak, and South Perak, they are advised to enter the highway after 10.00am.

Safe travels, everyone!

Masih Ada Rakyat Malaysia Yang Berdegil Rentas Daerah, Negeri Tanpa Surat Kebenaran Polis

Umum sedia maklum, Perintah Kawalan Pergerakan (PKP) 2.0 telah berkuat kuasa bagi negeri-negeri yang terlibat mulai 13 Januari hingga 18 Februari 2021 sebagai usaha kerajaan mengekang penularan wabak Covid-19

Begitupun, masih ada berdegil apabila melakukan pergerakan merentas negeri dan daerah ketika PKP tanpa mempunyai surat kebenaran daripada polis.Menerusi laporan, Ketua Polis Daerah Dang Wangi, Asisten Komisioner Mohamad Zainal Abdullah berkata, ada memberi alasan ingin melawat saudara, rakan dan berjalan menyebabkan mereka bertindak merentas negeri dan daerah.

Selain itu, ada dikompaun kerana kapasiti kenderaan melebihi daripada jumlah dibenarkan

Menurutnya lagi, mereka antara 200 kompaun atas kesalahan ingkar arahan PKP yang dikeluarkan di daerah ini bermula 13 Januari hingga semalam (2 Februari 2021)."Bagaimanapun kadar kepatuhan prosedur operasi standard (SOP) di daerah ini berbanding PKP pertama dahulu jauh berbeza kerana mungkin masyarakat sudah faham apabila kes kesalahan berkurangan."Kalau PKP Mac tahun lalu 300 ke 400 kes sehari, namun kali ini berkurang kepada 20 kes sahaja sehari," katanya.

Terima 4,200 permohonan rentas negeri dan daerah, kebanyakannya diluluskan kerana mempunyai alasan kukuh

Mohamad Zainal berkata, malah peratusan kadar kepatuhan di daerah ini agak tinggi iaitu 95 peratus dan pihaknya mendapati tiada premis hiburan beroperasi ketika PKP ini."Sebanyak 31 pasukan ditugaskan menjalankan pemantauan di kawasan tumpuan bagi memastikan mereka mematuhi SOP," ujarnya.

#PRU15: Tun M Dakwa BKM Fasa 4 Dikreditkan Ketika Ini 'Haram' Diterima Rakyat Malaysia

Pengerusi Gerakan Tanah Air (GTA), Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad mendakwa bayaran Bantuan Keluarga Malaysia (BKM) Fasa 4 yang diterima rakyat mulai esok sebagai 'haram'

Menurut laporan Kosmo!, beliau mempertikaikan kuasa yang ada kepada Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob sebagai Perdana Menteri caretaker, selepas Naib Presiden UMNO itu meluluskan peruntukan RM2.1 bilion bagi pembayaran BKM Fasa 4 yang diterima rakyat mulai esok.Bekas Perdana Menteri itu berkata, memandangkan kerajaan Persekutuan yang mentadbir negara selepas pembubaran Dewan Rakyat adalah sebuah kerajaan caretaker, Ismail Sabri tidak boleh meluluskan sebarang peruntukan kerana ia perlu mendapat kelulusan Parlimen.Tegasnya, bayaran BKM itu haram diterima rakyat kerana tidak sah dan tidak halal memandangkan perbuatan itu sama sahaja seperti mencuri duit rakyat.

Tun Dr. Mahathir memberitahu BKM Fasa 4 haram untuk diterima rakyat kerana ia tidak mendapat kelulusan Parlimen ketika berucap di Himpunan Pejuang Melaka, malam tadi.

“Bila tidak ada Parlimen yang telah dibubarkan untuk memberi laluan kepada Pilihan Raya Umum Ke-15 (PRU15), dia (Ismail Sabri) tak boleh buat apa-apa usul.“Dia tak boleh belanja wang yang banyak kerana semua perbelanjaan dan semua usul mesti diluluskan dalam Parlimen, barulah wang tersebut jadi halal.“Nampak sangat dia tak boleh tunggu kerana dia nak pengaruh, nak dapat undi maka dia ambil duit kerajaan berjumlah RM2.1 bilion nak bagi pada semua orang,” katanya.

BKM Fasa 4 akan dikreditkan ke dalam akaun bank penerima secara berperingkat bermula esok dan dijangka selesai 18 November ini

Khamis lalu, Ismail Sabri mengumumkan, bayaran BKM yang sepatutnya diterima rakyat Disember ini dipercepatkan bagi membantu menghadapi Monsun Timur Laut yang dijangka bermula pertengahan bulan ini.Sebagai rekod, BKM Fasa 4 akan dikreditkan ke dalam akaun bank penerima secara berperingkat bermula esok dan dijangka selesai 18 November ini, iaitu sehari sebelum rakyat keluar mengundi PRU15.Tambah Dr. Mahathir, peruntukan tersebut hanya menjadi halal jika usul itu dibawa ke Parlimen dan diluluskan.“Bila tidak ada Parlimen dia gasaklah, ini lah Ismail Sabri awal-awal lagi kita nampak semua pemimpin Barisan Nasional (BN) asyik curi duit sahaja, tak boleh lepas ada peluang nampak duit sahaja dibalunnya,” ujarnya.

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

A woman from the US recently shared several Singapore-inspired baby names that she found were the "cutest"

As she's currently on a baby name hunt, Monica Millington, who is based in Singapore, expressed her shortlist of names in a TikTok video that has since gone viral. 'Kaya' is at the top of the list, she states, adding that it'll make the cutest baby girl's name and it's just delicious.

Second on her list for a baby girl is 'Laksa', which she explains sounds very "foxy", "mysterious", and "chic". "This girl would be like a bad bitch," she adds.

She goes on to list other names, such as 'Marina', after Marina Bay Sands

"It is nautical, it is relevant, it is chic, it is a little bit pretentious, just like me."'Clementi' is another choice. Similar to the British name 'Clementine', she adds that, "It's a bit more sassy" and "a bit more local".

Moving on to boys' names, she picks 'Fullerton', inspired by The Fullerton Hotel Singapore

"Fullerton Millington? I mean, this guy is already the CEO of some bank somewhere," she says.Another option is 'Boon', inspired by Singapore's MRT stations, such as Boon Lay. Millington explains that she finds this to be a "very Texan and country" kinda feel and sounds like "a strong man's name". Last on her list is 'Sian' (a Hokkien expression for 'boring, tiring' or 'bothersome'), which she pronounces as Sean. Contrary to its actual definition, Millington says that this boy would be far from boring, "very well-read", and be a "soulful guy".

Meet The 4-Year-Old Genius Who's Already In Mensa And Has Albert Einstein's IQ

Where most 4 year-old kids don't even start going to school, a little boy has stunned psychologists with his high IQ level that is similar to Albert Einstein's

Child prodigy Sherwyn Sarabi has already got brains beyond his years - after recording an IQ of 160 aged FOUR.

        yahoo.com

Brainy Sherwyn has already tested off the scale for intelligence.
Image via yimg.com

The child genius, who started school two years early than the normal kids, became a member of Mensa when he was just 3-years-old.

        aninews.in

He has the reading age of a 9-year-old, a mental arithmetic age of an 8-year-old and the spelling abilities of a youngster aged 6 years, 9 months.

Educational psychologist, Dr Peter Congdon said that Sarabi's mental age is measured at 8 years and 9 months, which is more than twice his actual age, and that it is very unusual for a child to have this type of intelligence.

        aninews.in

4-yr-old Sherwyn Sarabi has IQ of 160 - Rastrick Independent School.

Proud mum Amanda, 37, of Royston, Barnsley, said: “Sherwyn is just amazing.
“Most of the time Sherwyn is like a normal child.
“He plays with toys, plays out and likes being with other children.

        examiner.co.uk

The precocious youngster is being compared to Albert Einstein, Bill Gates and Stephen Hawking. His IQ score is the latest in a long line of grand achievements by Sherwyn.

He spoke his first words at ten months, was talking in full sentences at 20 months, and has been wowing his parents, teachers and doctors ever since.

        dailymail.co.uk

Sherwyn's mother said the bright youngster is 'always asking questions'.
Image via yimg.com

Educational psychologist Dr Peter Congdon said: ‘Sherwyn has a very superior level of intelligence, he is incredibly gifted and his vocabulary is out of this world.'

        yahoo.com

His intellect reaches the highest possible levels of reason and when he talks to you he has the social skills of a much older child.'
He added: ‘It is very unusual for a child to have this type of intelligence, he came out at the very top on the tests.'

        fox8.com

Image via nydailynews.com

‘I specialise in specially gifted children but when I tested Sherwyn I knew I had come across something very special.’ While most four-year-olds have not yet started school, Sherwyn is already studying work for eight and nine-year-olds at Rastrick Independent School, Huddersfield.

'Kami Dibuli Setiap Hari' - Kembar 7G Iera Dan Ieka Tajudin Dedah Sisi Gelap Hidup

Masih ingat lagi kembar 7G, Iera dan Ieka Tajudin?

Kembar 7G, Iera dan Ieka Tajudin.
Image via Instagram @ieka.tajudin

Tahun lepas sekitar Julai 2018, media sosial Malaysia digegarkan dengan isu seorang pelajar yang menyalahkan guru-guru dan pihak sekolah atas kegagalannya dalam peperiksaan.Pelajar tersebut, Ieka atau nama penuhnya Siti Norsyahfiqah Tajudin, 18, melakukan sedemikian menerusi video 'Instagram Live' selepas menerima keputusan buruk 7G dan 2E untuk peperiksaan pertengahan tahun.Boleh tengok video di sini.

Selepas video itu viral, keputusan peperiksaan pertengahan tahun Ieka telah dibongkarkan di Twitter dan menjadi bahan kecaman netizen

Image via Twitter

Ieka merupakan seorang public figure yang popular di Instagram, bersama kembarnya, Siti Norsyakirah atau lebih dikenali sebagai Iera

Image via Instagram @iera.tajudin

Kedua-dua mereka, Ieka Tajudin dan Iera Tajudin masing-masing mempunyai pengikut kira-kira 500k di Instagram dan kini dikenali dengan gelaran 'Kembar 7G'.

Baru-baru ini, Ieka dan Iera membuat pendedahan sebenar mengenai isu 7G tersebut menerusi sebuah video di YouTube

Iera (kiri) dan Ieka Tajudin.
Image via Ieka & Iera Cosmetic TV / YouTube

Dalam video tersebut, mereka berdua mendedahkan bagaimana mereka diugut, dibuli, dicaci, dan dibenci semasa berada di bangku sekolah, dan perkara ini berlaku hampir setiap hari.Populariti dan rupa paras mereka membuatkan mereka menjadi perhatian orang ramai, sehingga menimbulkan rasa kurang senang terhadap beberapa pihak termasuk guru-guru di sekolah berkenaan.

"Belum masuk sekolah lagi kami dah diugut," kata Iera

Image via Instagram @ieka.tajudin

Menurut Iera, mereka berdua sudah pun menerima ugutan sebelum melangkah masuk ke sekolah lagi. Dari situ juga mereka sudah tahu bahawa kehidupan mereka di sekolah tidak akan mudah, dan pasti akan menjadi mangsa buli pelajar-pelajar lain.Ieka pula menambah, "Masa mula-mula kami masuk sekolah itu, kami jadi perhatian dan ramai yang sukakannya. Tapi lama-kelamaan, segalanya berubah. Rakan-rakan mula menjauhkan diri daripada kami, guru-guru pun mula tak sukakan kami, sehingga kami sendiri tertanya-tanya di mana silap kami sebenarnya?"

Sampai satu tahap, mereka berdua tiada siapa-siapa lagi selain ibu bapa dan mereka membuat keputusan untuk berhenti sekolah kerana tidak tahan dibuli setiap hari

Ieka dan Iera bersama ibu bapa tercinta.
Image via Instagram @ieka.tajudin

"Hampir setiap hari kami mengadu kepada ibu kami kerana kami tiada tempat bergantung lain selain ibu dan bapa kami. Merekalah yang memberi nasihat dan kata-kata semangat, dan meminta kami untuk habiskan sesi persekolahan yang hanya berbaki beberapa bulan."Tetapi kami tidak tahan, kami tidak mahu kembali ke sekolah dan membuat keputusan untuk berhenti," kata Iera sambil menangis.

Menurut mereka lagi, keputusan 7G itu pun sebenarnya disebarkan oleh rakan karib mereka sendiri yang mereka sangat percayakan

Image via Instagram @iera.tajudin

Semuanya berpunca daripada pergaduhan kecil. Perasaan tidak berpuas hati menyebabkan rakan mereka itu menyebarkan keputusan Peperiksaan Pertengahan Tahun milik Ieka yang jelas tertera 7G tersebut."Pada mulanya, kami pun tak tahu apa itu 7G. Ramai yang sebut 7G di ruangan komen tapi kami bingung. Kami tidak tahu apa-apa. Rupa-rupanya selepas itu, baru kami tahu bahawa rakan karib kami sendiri telah menyebarkan keputusan peperiksaan kami di Internet."Sebenarnya, kami mendapat keputusan 7G sebab kami tak jawab peperiksaan pun. Keadaan sekeliling kami yang selalu membuli kami membuatkan kami terlalu down dan stress sehingga kami tak nak jawab exam. Kami terlalu sakit hati tetapi tiada apa yang boleh kami lakukan," kata Iera lagi.

Mereka mengakui kesilapan mereka mengecam sekolah dan guru-guru, namun berpendapat bahawa tindakan sesetengah pihak menjatuhkan air muka mereka juga salah

Image via Ieka & Iera Cosmetic TV / YouTube

"Ya, memang saya salah kerana bertindak mengecam sekolah dan guru-guru, tetapi perlu ke sebarkan gambar IC saya? Tindakan itu juga salah kerana mengaibkan saya."Bayangkan jika ada pihak yang berniat jahat menggunakan butiran peribadi saya itu untuk menculik saya atau mengapa-apakan saya. Anda tak terfikir? Hanya kerana satu kesalahan saya, terus saya dihukum," ujar Ieka.

Iera dan Ieka ingin membuktikan walaupun mereka tiada SPM, mereka tetap boleh berjaya dan sentiasa melangkah ke hadapan

Local Brand Under Fire After Founder Joked About SOPs & COVID-19 Clusters At Fashion Show

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

A local fashion brand is embroiled in controversy after netizens pointed out that guests at their fashion show did not abide by COVID-19 standard operating procedures (SOPs)

A fairly large crowd attended the Glorious Raya 2021 fashion show by local brand Leeyanarahman Collection at Glam Hall in Kuala Lumpur.The event took place on Wednesday, 24 March.

Image via @leeyanarahman.co (Instagram)

Photos and videos uploaded on the brand's social media pages show that guests at the event did not wear face masks and no physical distancing measures were enforced

The entire fashion show was livestreamed on Facebook and YouTube.

In a video, one of the founders joked about COVID-19 clusters and even said, "Tonight, there are no SOPs here at all"

"If you come and get fined, just claim it from [redacted]," he added.A woman who was in the video with him then said, "So it will be called the Leeyanarahman Glorious Raya cluster."

Image via Instagram

Netizens criticised the brand and called for police to investigate the incident

One person wrote, "No social distance at all, face masks or whatever. Not only this, now all award shows, influencer or business events have people attending without face masks. Then, we're the ones being fined RM10,000."

Image via Twitter

Tagging the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM), another person tweeted, "Please investigate this. It's really a breach of SOP. The founder is even proud to say that people are not abiding by SOP. And then they'll trouble all of Malaysia. Fine each of them!"

Image via Twitter

Another netizen tagged PDRM as well as the National Security Council and said, "Please take action and fine them RM10,000. Us commoners are fined every day, will T20 folks not be fined? Please take action."

Image via Twitter

The brand's owner has since come forward to apologise and clarify the situation

In an Instagram post, Nur Liyana, or also known as @yaana.lee online, wrote, "A lot of people messaged me about the Leeyanarahman Glorious Raya fashion show yesterday that went viral on Twitter for not abiding with SOP. My team took a few photos of us following SOP.""We limited the entrance to only one door. All guests checked-in using MySejahtera, we carried out temperature screenings. Guests entering the hall must wear face masks. And even when a few people did not bring face masks, our team provided masks for them to wear.""And the hall can fit 400 to 500 people. But we only invited half of that number, which is 200 people. And there was physical distancing between the chairs.""It's just that, while we abide with SOP, maybe there was an oversight on our part. When guests were inside, most of them took off their masks because they wanted to take photos. We apologise for our negligence and carelessness."

Following the backlash, she has since set her account on private.

A man in Melaka has been sentenced to 12 months of prison after stabbing his neighbour's pet dog to death

According to Sinar Harian, Magistrate Suzana Mokhtar charged 38-year-old S Surais at the Jasin Magistrate court today, 11 November.The man was found guilty of killing his neighbour's pet dog using a machete around 9.30pm on 5 November, at a home in Jalan Teratai, Taman Maju.

During the incident, the accused snuck into his neighbour's car porch before brutally stabbing the dog.
The attack caused the animal's intestines to spill out and the beloved pet died a few hours later.

District police chief DSP Mispani Hamdan told New Straits Times that the canine's owner heard her pet barking incessantly and peeked through her bedroom window to check on it.He said, "Based on initial report, the woman's gate was unlocked. She was terrified to save her dog when she saw what the neighbour was doing it.""The dog's intestines spilled out and was still alive before it succumbed to its injuries a few hours later," he added.

Photos of the injured dog were then posted on the Persatuan Haiwan Malaysia official Facebook account and they went viral.

The man was charged for two separate offences — killing an animal and trespassing his neighbour's home.
However, he pleaded for a lighter punishment instead of jail time.

The first offence is according to Section 428 of the Penal Code for mischief by killing or maiming any animal. The Penal Code states that whoever commits mischief by killing, poisoning, maiming, or rendering useless any animal shall be punished with either imprisonment for up to three years, a fine, or both.Meanwhile, the accused was also sentenced according to Section 448 of the Penal Code for house-trespass. Those found guilty for this offence shall be punished with either imprisonment for up to three years, a fine which may extend to RM5,000, or both.Utusan Malaysia reported that the man pleaded to be charged with a fine instead of being sentenced to prison and explained that he was once injured after being chased by the dog and falling off a moving motorcycle.He also insisted that he himself is a dog owner.However, deputy public prosecutor Hayatul Wirdah Mohd Yunos requested for jail time, considering the inhumane act done by the accused, as well as the fact that the animal was left to suffer in pain for five hours.

Sea Turtle Agonising In Pain As Straw Is Extracted From Its Nostril Is Too Hard To Watch

If you've littered into the sea before, this video will make you regret your actions

Posted on 10 August, the 8-minute long video shows a group of researchers in Costa Rice, extracting a 12cm long straw from the nostril of a 35kg Olive Ridley sea turtle

Image via Youtube

A video showing the long, painful removal of a straw from the bleeding nostril of a sea turtle has been posted online to highlight the environmental danger posed by plastic litter.

        independent.co.uk

Christine Figgener, a sea turtle expert and her colleagues were collecting data for a study when they noticed something amiss - an object was stuck inside the sea turtle's left nostril

Image via Youtube

Figgener and colleagues were collecting data on sea turtle mating when they noticed something in the nose of a 77-pound (35-kilogram) male. After team members extracted a couple of centimeters of the object with pliers and snipped off a sample, they discovered that the wrinkled, brownish object was a plastic drinking straw.

        nationalgeographic.com

Originally, the researchers thought the object was a parasitic worm. Little did they know it was actually a 12cm long straw. Using a Swiss knife plier, the straw was slowly removed.

The team felt it was better to remove the straw immediately, since they were hours away from a veterinarian—and there was no guarantee the vet would know how to deal with a sea turtle.

        nationalgeographic.com

Although the procedure was bloody and painful, the sea turtle reportedly felt much better after the removal

'The team felt it was better to remove the straw immediately, since they were hours away from a veterinarian—and there was no guarantee the vet would know how to deal with a sea turtle. We disinfected the air passageway with iodine and kept the turtle for observation before releasing him back into the wild. The bleeding stopped pretty much immediately after the removal of the straw,' the Youtube description says

According to Figgener, the sea turtle might have accidentally eaten the straw

Figgener's not sure how the straw ended up in the male's nose, but the sea turtle expert thinks it could have swallowed the straw at some point, gagged on it, and then tried to throw it back up. "Olive ridleys feed on crustaceans, especially on the seabed," Figgener says, so the turtle might have slurped up the straw along with its meal.

Peralatan seperti mini rice cooker, food processor, electric lunch box, pinggan, mangkuk, cawan dan sudu garfu anak juga perlu dibawa ya. Senang nak masak dekat hotel nanti. Kalau nak lagi senang, anda boleh terus masak ikut portion yang sesuai dan simpan di dalam food container untuk hari-hari seterusnya.

3. Sediakan senarai menu

Kalau anda rajin, buatlah senarai menu breakfast, lunch dan dinner dari hari pertama hingga hari terakhir sepanjang percutian nanti supaya tak kelam kabut. Masa anda pun jimat, tak payah serabut nak fikir anak kena makan apa sebab semuanya dah letak dalam list siap-siap.
