Loke To Discuss With KTMB About Giving Free Ride Pass To OKUs & Students

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

Recently, Women, Family, and Community Development Minister Datuk Seri Nancy Shukri proposed the idea of giving free transport services to people with disabilities (OKU)

In a tweet, Nancy said she had discussed with Transport Minister Anthony Loke Siew Fook about providing free rides to OKUs who use public transport such as Light Rail Transit (LRT), Mass Rapid Transit (MRT), and stage bus services."I spoke to the minister on this matter and in principle, he has agreed to the proposal," Bernama quoted her as saying on Wednesday, 18 January.Nancy added that the OKU group is currently entitled to a 50% fare discount, however, not many are benefiting from it.

Sebelum mesyuarat Kabinet, saya sempat berbincang dengan @anthonyloke untuk memberi tambang percuma kepada OKU yang mengunakan pengangkutan awam seperti LRT, MRT dan Stage bus.Beliau bersetuju secara prinsip dan akan memikirkan mekanisme yang terbaik untuk melaksanakannya.— Nancy Shukri (@NancyShukri) January 18, 2023

Not only for OKUs, but Loke has said that he will also try to implement free rides for students

However, he has yet to decide on the date of implementation, as he is still in discussion with the management of Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad (KTMB) regarding the matter.

Loke had requested KTMB to optimise the subsidy provided by the government to benefit the target group that mainly uses the service

"After yesterday's meeting, I asked the operators, especially KTMB and Prasarana Malaysia Berhad (Prasarana) on how we want to implement it," he said."It is for the OKU and students, including in the east coast, Klang Valley, and north areas, where we have commuters from Negeri Sembilan to Tanjung Malim, Padang Rengas to Alor Setar, and trains on the east coast."More information will be announced after Chinese New Year, Loke added.

Moreover, KTMB has provided additional ETS rides for those who are going back to their hometowns during Chinese New Year:

Iris’s work is creating a buzz in the art world. A private collector has just bought two of her original works for £1,500 each. Prints are being snapped up for as much as £295.

        dailymail.co.uk

Her parents are currently seeking a sponsor for an exhibition in November that will be followed by an auction of Iris's original works, according to the Mercury. Money raised will be put toward Iris' therapy.

        irisgracepainting.com

In the past four months Iris has produced 35 works: some have taken just hours; others as long as a week-and-a-half.

        dailymail.co.uk

"We realised about three months ago she is actually really talented," she said. "Inquiries to buy her paintings were flooding in from all over the world and a framed print sold in a charity auction in London for £830."

        thisisleicestershire.co.uk

Diagnosed with autism, Iris can't talk and make eye contact with people

What makes her achievement even more extraordinary, however, is the fact she is autistic. She cannot speak, other children unnerve and distress her, the unpredictability of the world fills her with fear and panic. But art has soothed and calmed her — a source of delight and a therapy.

        dailymail.co.uk

Iris Grace was two when she was diagnosed with autism.
She rarely made eye contact with her parents and, fearing she was slipping away from them, they tried different therapies.

        thisisleicestershire.co.uk

She used to be consumed by books, eye contact was a rare occurrence, she didn’t want to or know how to play with us, showed obsessive behaviours, got desperately distressed when we took her near any other children and her sleep patterns were all over the place.

        irisgracepainting.com

It is a quirk of her autism that she does not like wearing clothes.
She has been cajoled into leggings, but is naked from the waist up. When she paints she normally refuses to wear a top.

        dailymail.co.uk

Her first paintbrush was a form of therapy for her autism

Her parents first handed her a paintbrush hoping to help her connect with others; their hopes were more than realized. "When she started doing art therapy we thought it was amazing, but we're her parents so we think everything she does is amazing," her dad, Peter-Jon Halmshaw, said.

M'sian Claims That His GF's Mum Dislikes Him Because He Only Makes RM8,000 A Month

It is safe to say that one of the nerve-wracking stages of a dating cycle is worrying whether your partner's parents will like you

It gets worse when you are at the stage of wanting to get married, but you are afraid that your partner's parents will not give their blessing.

Image via K Love (YouTube)

In a confession post published recently, a man explained his conundrum, whereby on one end, he loves his girlfriend dearly, while on the other end, his girlfriend's mother disapproves of him

The confession post was published on the Facebook page of a local Chinese radio station called MyFM on Tuesday, 20 April.The radio station regularly asks listeners to send in their love problems, which are then discussed on-air in a segment called MY 爱情 Love All Night, hosted by Daniel Zhen.In the 200-word confession, the man said his girlfriend's mum thinks that he is not rich enough."Yes, my girlfriend's family is really rich. All the cars in her house worth over RM200,000. They have luxurious watches, clothes, and shoes, among others at home," he shared anonymously.

With that said, he admitted that his girlfriend never minded that he was not from a rich family and loves him very much

"Every time she goes out on a date with me, she doesn't wear famous brands or go to expensive restaurants because she is afraid I'll be under pressure," he related."However, her mother is different. She likes to ask how much I earn in front of her relatives and friends every time. She embarrasses me in various ways and tells her daughter to find a rich boyfriend every day."He lamented that the mother's actions have made him feel inferior, made him feel that he is "not good enough for her". The man revealed that he "only makes RM8,000 a month", which the mother claimed that it is too meagre.

			A woman having more money than a man, can you understand this kind of pressure?
        The anonymous confessor

The post has since gone viral with over 1,100 likes while attracting more than 800 comments

Many netizens resonated with the man's struggle.

"Uh, is it the daughter looking for someone or the mother looking for someone? Strange. And the salary of RM8,000 is quite a lot. It depends on how you spend it," commented a Facebook user.One netizen shared their grim outlook on the man's relationship."It's impossible for people of different classes to stay together for life. Society is very realistic. You will understand one day. Sooner or later you will get hurt," shared the person.

Image via Facebook

Meanwhile, some netizens lamented how the man had confessed that he "only" makes RM8,000."I can't read on when he said 'I only make RM8,000'," a comment read, while another added, "'Only' RM8,000? Do you know that this number is already an 'astronomical number' for poor families?""'Only' RM8,000 is truly very little. My monthly salary is only RM1,700," a person said sarcastically.

Image via Facebook

One person even cheekily took her chances on him, saying, "Are you here to show off your salary?""But don't worry. Break up with her. Her mother hates you anyway. You two will not go far. Stay with me instead, my mother will not dislike you."Her comment garnered over 1,600 likes, with many more comments cheering at her quip.

Meet The 25-Year-Old Woman Who Is Helping Thousands Of Homeless People Get Food

This is how much food goes wasted every single day in America

Ohio Stadium filled to the brim with over 100,000 revved up fans.
Image via highfiveextravaganza

Excess food is a serious issue in the US. After paper, food scraps are the nation's second largest source of waste, according to the US Environmental Protection Agency.Leftovers fill 18 percent of landfills and make up over 30 million tons of what is sent to dumps each year. When cut off from oxygen, the organic matter creates methane gas and contributes to global warming.At the same time, the EPA says that roughly 50 million people in the US don't have access to enough food. That's more than 15 percent of the population -- or nearly one in six people.

        cnet.com

Yet about 40% of the food that grows in the US never gets eaten

"We have a lot of people in the US who don't know where their next meal is coming from. That's a travesty. We have such an abundance, and people are in a state of scarcity," said JoAnne Berkenkamp, a senior advocate in the Food and Agriculture Program at the nonprofit Natural Resources Defense Council.

So what's being done to solve this issue of food being wasted when there are millions of hungry and homeless people out there?
Enter Komal Ahmad, CEO of Feeding Forward, a non-profit service that seeks to end America's hunger problem by using an on-demand app designed to eliminate the food distribution problem.

Feeding Forward CEO Komal Ahmad shows off surplus food collected from the Bite Silicon Valley food-tech conference in early June. Leftovers gathered at this event fed more than 4,279 people at eight different shelters and food banks.
Image via CNET/Komal Ahmad/Feeding Forward

Feeding Forward established a web-based network of food banks and homeless shelters to streamline the process of distributing food quickly before it goes bad.If a shelter needs food, for example, they fill out a form to request that food be delivered as soon as possible; if there is a surplus of food anywhere, they can also fill out a form to have that food redistributed elsewhere.At any given time, Feeding Forward knows who needs food and where to take it, and their small army of 88 employees goes to work.

        nextshark.com

So far Feeding Forward has fed more than 570,000 people

Since Feeding Forward launched in 2013, the service, which so far serves only the San Francisco Bay Area, has recovered more than 684,000 pounds of food. That means it's fed more than 570,000 people and diverted more than 3.42 million pounds of carbon dioxide emissions from landfills.

        cnet.com

And all it took just one lunch to change Komal Ahmad's life

It was 2011. She had just come back from Navy medical training and was attending the University of California at Berkeley to start work on her undergraduate degree.While she was walking near campus one fall day, a homeless man approached her, asking for money to buy food because he was hungry. Instead of giving him cash, Ahmad invited the man to lunch. As they ate, he told her his story. He was a soldier recently returned from Iraq and had a bad turn of luck."He'd already gone on two deployments and now he's come back, he's 26 and on the side of the road begging for food," Ahmad said. "It just blew my mind."It bothered her so much that she decided to do something about it. Within a few months, Ahmad set up a program at UC Berkeley that allowed the school's dining halls to donate excess food to local homeless shelters. That program then expanded to 140 college campuses across the US in about three years.

        cnet.com

Through a website and mobile app, Feeding Forward matches businesses that have surplus food with nearby homeless shelters

Here's how it works: when companies or event planners have surplus food, they tap the Feeding Forward app and provide details of their donation. A driver is dispatched to quickly pick up the leftovers and deliver them to food banks.

        cnet.com

While the amount of food being recovered with Feeding Forward isn't much compared with what's being tossed, as CNET notes, it's starting to make a dent in food waste and in feeding people in need

Thousands of people have reached out to the company after it was featured in a CNET story Sunday, begging for the service to be expanded around the globe, Ahmad said."I didn't expect it to blow up," she said. "People as far as Nairobi, Bangalore and Hong Kong have wrote us asking us to expand Feeding Forward to their cities and countries. They're like, 'Tell me what I can do to get it here.'"

        nydailynews.com

Moving ahead, Ahmad said she hopes to expand Feeding Forward to cities outside the Bay Area, including Seattle and Boston."These are huge cities that have absurd amounts of food thrown away every day," Ahmad said. "We are trying to make the Bay Area a case study to say 'Hey, if it works here, it can work anywhere.'"

The previous pick-up points that were at Level 3 of KLIA's arrival hall and Level 2 of klia2's arrival hall are no longer functional

MAHB said that the new initiative aims to improve the traffic and ensure a more systematic public transportation flow at the KL International Airport terminals.In the statement on Friday, Malaysia Airports said that the two new pick-up points have been upgraded with comfortable waiting amenities for passengers."We are providing facilities to both e-hailing drivers and their passengers such as an incoming control system, comfortable seating for the waiting areas and signage for easy navigation at the new designated pick-up points," Raja Azmi Raja Nazuddin, Group Chief Executive Officer (GCEO) of Malaysia Airports, said.According to Raja Azmi, the initiative aims is to make both passengers and the e-hailing community at KL International Airpot have a pleasant experience.

Meanwhile, MAHB said that RM10 penalty will be imposed on drivers if they remain in the pick-up lane for more than five minutes

"An additional penalty of RM10 will be imposed if the driver continues to wait for another 5 minutes," MAHB said, adding that a complimentary waiting area has been allocated for e-hailing drivers at its Landside Operations office.The complimentary waiting area is five minutes away from the terminal."By waiting at this designated parking area prior to the arrival of their passengers, the drivers will be able to abide by the 5-minute period allocated to pick-up passengers at the designated points. Access to the pick-up lanes requires Touch 'n Go cards with a minimum value of RM20 or pay-wave cards (Visa, Mastercard and Debit Card)," it said.

Malaysia's Air Force Takes On The Viral #TetrisChallenge And We're Obsessed

The Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) joined in the viral #TetrisChallenge - and took it to new heights with their F18 fighter jet and sidewinder missiles in play

Image via Twitter @airforcenextgen

According to Malay Mail, the RMAF tweeted the picture as an invitation to the public to the Malaysian Armed Forces Open Day Carnival at their naval ship base in Lumut, Perak on 28 and 29 September.The post has since been retweeted over 2,500 times.

Twitter users were really impressed by the uniformed men and showed their full support

A Twitter user commended the equipment and the adorable crew.

Another user showed his national pride and said, "Let's all go to Lumut and see what the Malaysian Armed Forces can offer up close."

This user really loves the armed forces.

The 'Tetris Challenge' began early last month after police officers in Switzerland organised all their equipment and bodies in a photo

It was captioned, "If you ever wanted to know what was in a traffic police car".

According to New York Post, the trend gained attention as military members and first responders from around the world posted aerial shots of themselves lying down on the ground with their equipment, weapons, and vehicles.

Since then, different departments in countries from Switzerland to Singapore have worked to create elaborate flatlay pictures

These firefighters from Geneva, Switzerland had to join in the fun:

Police officers in Taichung, Taiwan also showed off their equipment:

Who Are The Guys Behind Lizard Squad?

On 26 January 2015, the Malaysia Airlines website was defaced by hackers who referenced the Islamic State Jihadists and claimed to be from the "Lizard Squad," a shady hackers group known for their previous 'Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS)' attacks

While Malaysia Airlines claimed that its passenger user data remained secure despite the attack on its domain, Lizard Squad leaked a list of flight bookings online, including one believed to be for federal minister Datuk Seri Mustapa Mohamed.The group even tweeted that MAS is lying about user data not compromised.

They now say they are behind hacks on Facebook and Instagram including Tinder, AIM and Hipchat. But who are Lizard Squad?

Facebook, Instagram, Tinder, AIM, Hipchat #offline #LizardSquad— Lizard Squad (@LizardMafia) January 27, 2015

However, a Facebook spokeswoman told BBC its own engineers had caused the problem, downplaying claims by Lizard Squad

"Earlier this evening many people had trouble accessing Facebook and Instagram," a spokeswoman told the BBC."This was not the result of a third-party attack but instead occurred after we introduced a change that affected our configuration systems. We moved quickly to fix the problem, and both services are back to 100% for everyone."

        bbc.com

An informal hacker collective, Lizard Squad has been described as "vocal, taunting and a bit obnoxious" by media sites. The shady group has a history of DDoS attacks that appear driven by a desire for mayhem for the sake of mayhem, notes Max Fisher of Vox.

Image via twitter.com/LizardMafia

In an interview with individuals claiming to be members of the group, the tech news site WinBeta reported that Lizard Squad aims to force companies to improve their security by disrupting gaming networks for a short period of time. Lizard Squad targeted Microsoft and Sony on Christmas because “they felt it would anger and reach the largest amount of people,” according to WinBeta. The group considered hacking other companies, such as Nintendo, but decided against taking action.Lizard Squad also told WinBeta that of the two companies, Microsoft was easier to hack into, and they described the company’s security as “almost nothing.”The attacks on Sony and Microsoft occurred on Christmas Day, disrupting many users just as they received new consoles and games.In August, the same group appeared to claim responsibility for attacking Sony’s PlayStation Network and interrupted the travel plans of the president of Sony Online Entertainment, by tweeting that there may be explosives on his American Airlines plane.

They regularly retweet guesses about the identities behind their Twitter account. They scream Reddit memes. But most bizarrely, they promote ISIS and links to 9/11 videos, notes The Daily Dot.

Back in September 2014, the group took to Twitter and their own website to announce that they were slinking away into the shadows, saying authorities were arresting their various reptilian members. Here's what were supposed to be their parting words:

"Little thieves are hanged, but great ones escape." We set out on our journey 2 weeks ago with the plan to cause havoc within the gaming community.  Our motives varied throughout this adventure. Originally it was to see if we could evade being  caught and to experience the raw thrill of anarchy, not being bound to phony laws. We've been  called everything from an organized criminal "gang" to complete assholes, really we are just a bunch of guys with too much free time. Throughout our journey we met new people, gained new  members, learned new things. People tried taking swings at us (and missed). We proved that even  though we are little in this very big world, that a small group of friends who work together can  cause a lot of havoc without legal repercussions. Today we will be disbanding, behind the green reptiles and other bullshit, we have lives believe it or not, things to do, people to meet.  Goodbye. - dragon- Komodo- ryan - sp3c- abdilo- Chameleon- Vagineer- GeckoPS: chF was never apart of LizardSquad, just a friend.

But despite disbanding, Lizard Squad was soon back to their old tricks. The group does not appear to have a specific agenda other than simple annoyance, notes Forbes contributor Paul Tassi.

Video game companies hate them for the constant attacks. Video game fans hate them for knocking their favorite games offline and making them impossible to play. Other hackers hate them for not being “true” hackers, resorting only to DDoS attacks rather than anything more in-depth and involved.

        forbes.com

Lizard Squad's notable actions include:

Server outages of the games GTA 5, Destiny, Doda, League of Legends, Call of Duty, and Runescape, among others.Microsoft’s XBox Live and Sony’s Playstation Network have been attacked multiple times, as has Twitch.tv, along with various streamers on the site.Starting 2015, they attacked the website of Malaysia Airlines and a day after, on 27 January, several social media services including Facebook and Instagram were unavailable to users. Lizard Squad claimed responsibility for the attacks.

In recent times, teenagers have sent Lizard Squad fan art while others have tweeted pictures with "Lizard Squad" written on their forehead, or just photos of themselves admitting to being overpowered by the shady group, the CS Monitor reported

Meanwhile, reportedly revealing two of Lizard Squad member's identity, Krebs on Security claimed that one of them appears to be a 22-year-old from the UK named Vinnie Omari, and other is a Finnish teenager named Julius Kivimäki. He is 16 years old.

Both of these individuals may in fact be guilty of nothing more than taking credit for other peoples' crimes. But, notes Krebs on Security, that the Lizard Squad, a group of fake-seeking kids, is not some sophisticated hacker group.

On 26 December 2014, BBC Radio aired an interview with both the teen hackers. They were referred to in the interview only as "Member 1" and "Member 2". You can hear the full interview here:

UK: Ulcer Gels Like Bonjela Should Not Be Used In Children Below 16 Years Old

Subscribe to our Telegram channel for our latest stories and breaking news.Editor's note: The story has been updated with a statement from Reckitt Benckiser Malaysia.

Children under the age of 16 have been advised against using pain relief mouth gels that contain salicylates, such as Bonjela

According to a recent Facebook post by Public Health Malaysia, parents should take note of this 2009 warning by the UK Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA).For context, Bonjela is a topical gel commonly used to relieve pain and reduce inflammation for the treatment of mouth ulcers, brace sores, and denture irritation.While there are other brands of oral ulcer gels in Malaysia, Bonjela was quoted as an example not to be used for children due to an ingredient – a pain relief agent called choline salicylate.

Image via Amazon

Choline salicylate is a salicylate salt similar to aspirin, a medication that is contraindicated for children under 16 years old

While safe for relieving pain in adults, aspirin can cause Reye's syndrome in children and teenagers – a rare disorder that causes serious liver and brain damage.If not treated promptly, it may lead to permanent brain injury or death.The MHRA warned that there was a theoretical risk that topical ulcer gels with salicylate salts could also lead to children developing the life-threatening condition.

The regulator had received a report of a child being hospitalised with suspected adverse drug reactions after excessively using Bonjela

While they could not prove the child had Reye's syndrome, as it was more likely salicylate toxicity, MHRA released the warning anyway to prevent future occurrences."Irrespective of the diagnosis, it is clear that a choline salicylate gel, if applied chronically and excessively, can result in systemic levels of salicylate... If used in excess, could increase the risk of Reye's syndrome," it said.

Bonjela manufacturer and worldwide distributer Reckitt Benckiser has since clearly labelled Bonjela as a mouth gel brand for adults in the UK

Image via ebay

According to the Bonjela UK website, the regular Bonjela box now shows an 'Adult 16+' warning on its packaging and they have since released a formulation specially for children called Bonjela Junior.Meanwhile, as an alternative to topical oral salicylate gels, the MHRA has advised that children under 16 can also:- Use a dental gel that contains another type of local anaesthetic or mild antiseptic.- Use a salt water mouthwash for soreness and pain related to orthodontic devices.- Take a paracetamol-based painkiller for discomfort arising from tooth movement.- Apply gentle pressure with something cool, such as a chilled teething ring, to relieve infant teething pain.

Speaking to SAYS, Reckitt Benckiser Malaysia has assured that Bonjela is safe to be used in children above four months old

In a statement, they said the age restriction and labelling was only requested by the MHRA in the UK."Bonjela is a global brand sold across 23 countries. The labelling regulation varies by market as according to each market local regulation," they said.They assured that like the New Zealand Medicine and Medical Devices Safety Authority (Medsafe) and the Irish Health Products Regulatory Authority (HPRA), Malaysia has reviewed data and confirmed that Bonjela is safe for use in children above four months old when it is used as per the recommended dose as stated on their packaging."Adding on, our safety data is constantly being reviewed and no evidence was found to support applying this age restriction globally," they said."We review and update the latest science and expert knowledge for our ingredients used and constantly update our safety profiles to ensure the safety of our products for our consumers."They also ensured that all their products sold locally comply with local regulations and are approved by the National Pharmaceutical Regulatory Agency (NPRA).However, as with all medicines, they do advise consumers to consult healthcare professionals before use of their products, and to always use them according to recommended dosing and directions.

Woman Dies In Road Accident While Her Livestream Is Still Running

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

A woman in Sabah died in a road accident while her Facebook Live video was still running on Monday, 11 July

According to Berita Harian, the 38-year-old victim was riding with her 39-year-old husband and seven-year-old son on Jalan Kunak-Tawau in Kunak before crashing into a sports utility vehicle (SUV) at KM10. During the incident at 4.45pm, the Indonesian victim died at the scene while her husband and her son survived with minor injuries.Kunak OCPD Supt Sabarudin Rahmat said they were travelling on a Yamaha 135 LC and it was a Proton X70 that crashed into them.

Image via Berita Harian

It is understood that the SUV tried to overtake another vehicle at the time, but crashed into the motorcycle from behind

The Star reported that the motorcycle was making a right turn into a junction moments before the collision."The husband was flung onto the roadside following the collision while the woman and her child, who were riding pillion, were dragged under the car," Sabarudin told the English daily, adding that the 54-year-old driver and his wife were unharmed by the accident.

Image via Facebook

On Facebook, the live video that is believed to have been taken by the deceased victim has gone viral with over 198,000 views and 1,500 shares

The livestream lasted 37 minutes, even though the crash appears to have happened at the 4:55-minute mark.Based on the footage, no car can be seen in front of the motorcycle before the collision, and it does not capture the X70 crashing into them.After the 4:55-minute mark, the video shows footage of the sky for the next half hour, suggesting that the phone was lying on the side of the road following the crash.A distressed voice of a man can be heard in the video along with several voices from other individuals.They can be heard wailing in the video, especially a boy's voice crying out "mama... mama..." repeatedly.

Image via Facebook

The phone is picked up from the ground at the 36:55-minute mark and the video shows glimpses of the accident scene before it ends.Thousands of netizens expressed their condolences to the victims in the comments section.

The case is currently being investigated under Section 41(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987 for causing death by reckless or dangerous driving

Sabarudin said the authorities did not suspect the driver or the motorcyclist were driving under the influence of alcohol, but blood samples have been taken for tests.

We all have a special woman who has left a mark in our lives.
For me, seeing my 88-year-old grandma overcome life challenges again and again has always inspired me to be strong.

My grandma didn't always have it easy growing up. She wasn't from a well-to-do family, so she never got to go to school, but had to help take care of her siblings at home. Even at a young age, she struggled with respiratory problems, so she could never go outside and be too active.Nevertheless, she learnt how to read and write on her own at home. She also picked up various skills at home like making authentic Nyonya kuih, paos, and other special dishes from scratch.

When my grandfather passed away, my grandmother had to work night and day to pay off debts and provide for the family financially

Image via Malay Mail

My grandfather passed away because of heart attack at quite a young age, and left the family with a huge amount of debt. So throughout the years my dad was growing up, my grandma would wake up at 5am every day to start making kuih and food to sell. My dad and his siblings would also have to help to deliver the kuih and food on the way to school.In the afternoons and evenings, my grandma would go to neighbour's homes to help clean and babysit. At one point, she even became a confinement lady to earn enough money to clear the debts.While they didn't have a lot, my grandma made sure the family stuck together through it all. She managed to send my dad and his siblings to university, and all of them turned out to have great careers and families.

She kept working well into her seventies, but then she got sick and couldn't move about as freely any more. Even then, she always stays positive and tries to do whatever she can.

My grandma kept making kuih up until she was 72 years old, but she had a major fall one day and hurt her hip. That's why her movement is slower these days and she needs to walk with a tongkat nowadays.However, despite these challenges, she continues to be strong and positive. What I love most about my grandmother is how she brings the whole family together - she's the glue to our family. Even up until today, it's become a tradition to have lunch at grandma's house every Saturday. Thanks to her sacrifice, our family is as strong as ever and gets to enjoy what we have today.

Can you think of a special woman who has deeply impacted your life as well? Maybe it's time for you to share her story too!

I'm sure that each of us has had at least one special woman who touched our lives. It could be our mum, grandma, teacher in school, or even mentor in the workplace. We wouldn't be who we are today if not for them. I know I wouldn't have such a love for food and cooking if it weren't for my ah ma! ;P

1MDB Trial Postponed For A Week After Najib's Entire Legal Team Goes Into Self-Quarantine

The High Court has allowed the adjournment of former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak's 1MDB trial over fears that his lead counsel came in contact with a suspected COVID-19 case

In yesterday's proceeding, 12 March, Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah's lawyer Noor Farhah Mustaffa was the only one present at the entire bench allocated for the defence team, reported The Star.Farhah told the Kuala Lumpur High Court that Shafee was in close contact with a family member who has been asked to undergo testing for the coronavirus disease.

Farhah said Shafee's sister-in-law, who works in Sirim Berhad, sat beside a colleague infected with COVID-19

"Shafee had come into close contact with his sister-in-law on Saturday, 7 March, during a family get-together and he was advised to go for a check-up," Farhah told High Court judge Justice Collin Lawrence Sequerah, reported New Straits Times."He has since been placed on self-quarantine."Furthermore, Farhah told the court that medical practitioners have ordered the entire 1MDB defence team or all employees in Shafee's legal firm to undergo quarantine, reported Malaysiakini.

Following the explanation provided by the defence team, lead deputy public prosecutor Datuk Seri Gopal Sri Ram did not object to the adjournment request

He said he was ordered to be tested for COVID-19 as well because he was in close contact with Patients Under Investigation (PUI)."I am scheduled for a second test tomorrow. I can understand the concern due to the speed of the virus spreading," added Gopal, who is also a former federal court judge.After hearing from both sides, High Court judge Sequerah said in jest that COVID-19 is spreading faster than the progress of the 1MDB trial, a witty remark that elicited laughter from all those present in court.

The defence team  was ordered to produce official letters from the Sungai Buloh Hospital and the Ministry of Health to prove their self-quarantine claim

This morning, 13 March, Farhah presented the letters to the court. The letters said the Ministry of Health has ordered Shafee to undergo quarantine until the test result is out, reported New Straits Times.In light of that, the High Court has allowed a break for the 1MDB trial and tentatively set 19 March to reconvene.Najib is currently facing 25 charges of money laundering and abuse of power over alleged 1MDB funds amounting to RM2.28 billion deposited into his personal bank accounts between February 2011 and December 2014.

On Wednesday, a Netflix documentary about 1MDB featured some fishermen defending the former prime minister:
