According to media reports, the police found multiple plastic bags containing a woman's dismembered remains buried in a garden of a building complex while investigating a missing person's case involving a woman named Huang I-Min.The Straits Times reported that Huang was last seen alive with her boyfriend, Gary Chu Chun-ying, based on a closed-circuit television (CCTV) footage reviewed by the police that shows her entering Chu's flat in New Taipei City's Banqiao District on 20 May.Chu, an MMA (mixed martial arts) fighter and boxing coach from New Taipei, reportedly met Huang on the mobile dating platform, Tinder. Huang's family lodged a police report on 26 May, after they had lost contact with her for about a week.

It was learned that Huang's brother had claimed that Chu was holding his sister against her will

Huang's brother apparently appealed to members of a Facebook Group on 26 May to help look for his missing sister as he feared that she might be in danger. He alleged that Chu had a history of abusing women, including a woman purported to be his ex-wife. Taiwan News reported Chu as responding in a Facebook post on the same day about his girlfriend, saying that he had never been mean or violent to Huang. Chu also denied that Huang was missing, saying that his girlfriend was actually with him all along.The 28-year-old also claimed that Huang had deceived him into thinking that she was a virgin and that Huang had been cheating on him with several other men, adding that Huang had promised to change, but "in the end, she did not"."She was the one who kept looking for me. She told me how much she loved me, how much she needed me. I broke up with her, but she begged me to let her stay," read the post on Chu's profile, as reported by The Straits Times.

It was alleged that Chu murdered Huang and stuffed her body into at least eight different bags after she lied about her virginity, before he ultimately committed suicide

According to Taiwan News, Chu's body was found hanging by the neck from a tree near a hospital in the Xinzhuang District on 28 May, one day after the police found Huang's dismembered body. Police found a bag of items beside Chu's body, including a suicide note with the words: "She wronged me."A report by Apple Daily stated that the police initially found seven bags containing Huang's body parts on 27 May, but later discovered another bag on Wednesday, 30 May.The police have yet to find Huang's missing internal organs while local media is rife with speculations about what happened to them.

The latest development in the case apparently points to Chu's parents, who are said to have been involved in helping to cover up their son's alleged crime

Taipei Times quoted the local police who said that Chu's parents have been questioned as possible accessories to murder and listed as "persons of interest".It was learned that a CCTV footage from the building allegedly shows Chu's parents arriving at his apartment soon after the murder. The authorities believed that Chu's parents were aware of what had happened as they helped to clean the place and left with clothing and bedsheets.Meanwhile, media reports have also surfaced alleging that Chu, who was raised and educated in the US, had a history with violence and a criminal record in the US for bank robbery.

Closer to home, the nation was shocked with news of a 19-year-old girl who was murdered by her former boyfriend in Port Dickson recently:

Photographer Captures Bittersweet Portraits Of The Elderly When They Were Young

The series is an emotional one, tying together the prime years of the elderly subjects’ past to their present lives. It is a beautiful yet melancholic take on the conceptual  reality of natural life.

The photographer arrived upon the concept for his bittersweet series after a conversation with an 80-year-old World War II veteran who couldn't believe how quickly time had passed.

        huffingtonpost.com

Image via wordpress.com

"He commented that he didn’t understand how he could be 80 years old as he felt he was still a young man. He just didn’t feel it was possible he could be 80 years old," Hussey told the American Society of Media Photographers.

        thedigitalvisual.com

Hussey channeled the separation between body and mind in his mirror series, collapsing decades before our very eyes. Firemen, teachers, scientists and nurses confront their older selves in the mirror wearing retro uniforms and sporting rosy cheeks.

        fstoppers.com

To cast the shoot, Hussey and his team found convincing dopplegangers separated by 40 or 50 years. The results are realistic and poignant, capturing the perplexing relationship we have with our changing bodies over time.

The ultimate alternative to sunblock in China is a full head mask with openings for the eyes and mouth. Women wearing the protective mask can be seen at a beach in the Shandong province.

S'porean Man Installs 9 Air-Conds In His Flat & Receives 'Frosty' Response From Neighbours

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

A Singaporean retiree, identified as Huang, installed nine air conditioning units in his rented four-room flat in Sengkang, Singapore

Huang reportedly installed five air-conditioning units in his flat's living room, two more in the master bedroom, and one unit each in the two remaining rooms. Huang would also allegedly set the temperature of all the air-conditioners to 18°C and the apartment would be so cold that neighbours would report feeling the chill air from outside his unit.Shin Min Daily News reporters also mentioned that when visiting Huang at his home, Huang attended to them while wearing six to seven layers of clothing.According to Huang, he told reporters that he paid SGD10,300 (RM32,900) a month for the nine units he used.He also allegedly paid SGD13,000 (RM41,533) to install all nine of the units when he first moved in.The 64-year-old told Shin Min Daily News that he was diagnosed with terminal cancer in 2021. He reasoned that due to his condition, he wanted to live in comfort as he believed it could strengthen his body's immunity and improve his health.

Due to Huang's excessive use of air-conditioners, his neighbours began to complain and air out their grievances and issues that he was causing them

One of Huang's neighbours, Liu, who lived directly above him, complained of the condensation (water that forms on a cold surface when humid air is in contact with it) he had to deal with because of Huang's chilly apartment. Liu mentioned that it was a headache and a safety hazard for him to mop his floor thrice daily in order to soak up all the moisture that would form on his apartment floor.He also complained that his apartment walls and ceiling had begun to grow mould due to the moisture leaked from the air-conditioners. Liu allegedly spent SGD500 (RM1,597) to repaint his apartment walls to tackle the mould issue."It gave me a headache," the neighbour told Shin Min Daily News reporters.

Having dealt with issues like these for two months, Huang's neighbours decided to confront Huang and make a formal complaint to authorities

On 21 August, Liu visited Huang, hoping that they could discuss the matter at hand and reach some form of compromise. All parties reportedly came to a consensus that Huang would reduce the amount of time he spent using his air-conditioners. He also allegedly agreed to use only two air-conditioners in his master bedroom when he goes to bed at night.

However, due to the number of complaints Huang received, he moved out of the apartment building on 17 September

He told reporters that he was not happy with his life at the apartment block, so he chose to move out. He left behind all nine of his air-conditioning units in the apartment."My neighbours ganged up against me. They also went to the authorities and the press," Huang told reporters.Neighbours expressed their concern about the air-conditioners remaining in Huang's unit. They were worried that the next tenant would use them and cause the same issues. However, Huang told Shin Min Daily News reporters that he would return to get his air-conditioners back after moving into his new home.

Douglas Engelbart, the father of the computer mouse and so much more, dies at 88

Douglas Engelbart, an internet pioneer and developer of the early computer mouse, passed away early this morning at the age of 88.

        gizmodo.com

Douglas Carl Engelbart was born on January 30, 1925 in Portland to a radio repairman father who was often absent and a homemaker mother. He died of kidney failure.

        reuters.com

A radar technician during World War II, Engelbart worked at the Stanford Research Institute during the 1960s. It was there that a vision of people sitting in front of a video screen, interacting with a computer, came to him.

During his lifetime, Engelbart made numerous groundbreaking contributions to the computing industry, paving the way for videoconferencing, hyperlinks, text editing, and other technologies we use daily.

        theverge.com

Engelbart arrived at his crowning moment relatively early in his career, on a winter afternoon in 1968, when he delivered an hour-long presentation containing so many far-reaching ideas that it would be referred to decades later as the "mother of all demos."

        yahoo.com

It was described as: “An X-Y position indicator control for movement by the hand over any surface to move a cursor over the display on a cathode ray tube, the indicator control generating signals indicating its position to cause a cursor to be displayed on the tube at the corresponding position."

        vancouversun.com

In the year 1973 this mouse was first used with the Xerox Alto computer system. However, because of its lack of success the first widely used mouse is credited to being the mouse found on the Apple Lisa computer.

Man Drives Car Straight Into Hospital Emergency Unit After His Dad Suffered A Heart Attack

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

Late last night, 4 September, a shirtless man drove his car straight into the Raja Permaisuri Bainun Hospital's (HRPB) emergency unit

His father had suffered a heart attack and the man was in a state of panic, which made him take drastic measures in the 11.30pm incident, according to Perak police chief Mior Faridalathrash Wahid."After he stopped his car inside the building, he screamed for help before he was calmed down by hospital staff. He was then asked to move his car to the designated parking space," he was quoted as saying by Harian Metro today, 5 September.

No injuries occurred during the incident

"There were no collisions, injuries, other than damage to public property following the incident. (Also) no police report was made by any party about it," Mior further stated.

The man's father is reported to be in a stable condition now

He is still being treated at the hospital.Earlier, a 54 -second video of the incident went viral.It showed grey Perodua Kelisa, entering the foyer of the HRPB building near the HRPB emergency unit. The video also showed the man carrying his father before placing him in a wheelchair.

Man Criticised For Giving Raya Hamper To Policemen On Duty

Shared by over 4807 people, reports of a 23-year-old DJ gifting four policemen with a hamper while they were on duty during the Raya holidays went viral on social media over the weekend

However, the post has attracted both bad and good publicity with some netizens having misjudged this man's act of kindness alleging it was a sign of bribery since it happened during a roadblock

Image via Victor Chan Facebook

Image via Victor Chan Facebook

There were even a few that questioned the man's motives for posting a selfie with the policeman implying that good deeds need not be publicised

Several users have come to Victor's rescue slamming others for insulting this noble act with one even reminding others there was a thin line between bribery and a gift

Victor has moved on to clear the air on social media by expressing his true intentions behind the post which was to spread the good message among friends, and NOT create attention!

Image via Victor Chan Facebook

After a quick call to the Putrajaya Police Headquarters, we were made aware that it isn't wrong to offer a policeman a gift or hamper while on duty, UNLESS the gift was used to escape a criminal act or was in connection with it

"No one has ever become poor by giving. To change the world you must first start with yourself," says Victor Chan

Well, we just want to say, thanks Victor Chan for appreciating them!

MOH Encourages M'sians To Be Happier & Healthier Through Their BMSS Campaign

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

This Spotlight story is sponsored by Ministry of the Health Malaysia.

Every October, the Ministry of Health (MOH) organises Bulan Malaysia Sihat Sejahtera (BMSS), an initiative to realise the government's aspirations in nurturing a fit and happy Keluarga Malaysia by cultivating a healthier lifestyle

October also saw the celebration of World Mental Health Day (10 October), Hari Sukan Negara (7 to 9 October), World Walking Day (1 to 2 October), and Malaysia Environmental Day (21 October), all of which aim to promote a culture and environment that supports a healthier and fitter lifestyle.

This year, BMSS was launched by Prime Minister Dato' Sri Ismail Sabri bin Yaakob on 8 October

From left to right: Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin and Prime Minister Dato' Sri Ismail Sabri bin Yaakob

To cater to the ever-changing needs and lifestyle of Malaysians, BMSS focused on health behaviour. This was done via a nationwide approach under the Agenda Nasional Malaysia Sihat (ANMS). BMSS aspired to strengthen the partnership between strategic partners, where all parties, including MOH and ANMS, worked hand in hand to plan and execute programmes and activities. This was to cultivate a healthier lifestyle culture in a holistic and wider reach for the wellness of Keluarga Malaysia.

According to the National Health and Morbidity Study 2019 (NHMS 2019), health risks and the burden of diseases due to unhealthy lifestyle choices are significantly higher as compared to the numbers seen in the NHMS 2015 report

Image via MalayMail

NHMS 2019 also discovered that:- 1 in 2 Malaysians are overweight and obese- 1 in 4 Malaysians are physically inactive - 1 in 20 Malaysians eat fruits and vegetables as prescribed- Half a million adults in Malaysia suffer from depression- 4.8 million Malaysians aged 15 and above are smokersIf this trend continues to rise, it will further complicate the endemic phase. In fact, these health risk factors have contributed to the rise of noncommunicable diseases, which are conditions that are not caused by an acute infection, result in long-term health consequences, and often create a need for long-term treatment and care. Examples include cancers, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and chronic lung illnesses.Here are the effects: - 3.4 million Malaysians have at least two noncommunicable diseases - 1.7 million Malaysians have all three noncommunicable diseases - The government has lost RM9 billion in treating noncommunicable diseases - In Malaysia, the main cause of death is cardiovascular disease

MOH also reported that 87% of COVID-19 death cases occur in patients that have at least one comorbidity, where another medical condition occurs due to the primary condition

Image via @rawpixel.com (Freepik)

According to research by the World Health Organisation (WHO) and United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in 2020, those with health risk factors or suffering from noncommunicable diseases are prone to severe complications if they were to get COVID-19. Here are some of the complications for the following risk factors: - Obese people are seven times more likely to contract serious infection complications- Smokers are 1.5 times more likely to experience serious complications and a higher death rate - Alcohol affects the body's ability to fight infection- Physical inactivity raises the risk of noncommunicable diseases which are risk factors for COVID-19 - Diabetic patients are three times more likely to experience serious complications- Cardiovascular disease patients are 2.5 times more likely to experience serious complications - People with chronic pulmonary disease (COPD) have a high risk of serious complications and a higher death rate

In fact, direct medical health costs and loss of productivity due to chronic disease in the country until 2017 have been estimated to be as much as RM22.53 billion

This amount is nearly 40% of the total cost of medical health. MOH shared that it is estimated that by 2040, individuals aged 65 years old and above will rise to 14.5% of the total residents in Malaysia. If Malaysians continue with unhealthy lifestyle choices, it is estimated they will live up to 9.5 years of their ageing lives in bad health conditions. MOH noted that with the current health system trajectory, Malaysia is not ready to face future challenges in providing adequate healthcare and social care.

To prevent this, MOH hopes that through BMSS, Malaysians were able to incorporate healthy and good habits into their lifestyle

Image via @tirachardz (Freepik)

These habits include partaking in physical activities, maintaining a nutritious diet, managing body weight, having a healthy mind, avoiding smoking and drinking, maintaining a clean and healthy environment, as well as going for personal health checks. All of these habits are important foundations for a national health system that is shifting its focus to facilitating and supporting Keluarga Malaysia to maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Image via BMSS

As such, for the whole month of October, MOH planned various activities as part of the BMSS celebration. Here's a look at all of the activities:

Click here to learn more about all of the activities!

Check out some of the highlights of BMSS:

1. Families looking to take part in an activity together joined the Langkah Sihat BMSS campaign, which ran until 31 October

Image via BMSS

Encouraging all Malaysians to take part, the campaign saw individuals and families going for brisk walks and recording their average steps on a pedometer on a daily and weekly basis. This activity not only allowed communities and families to become fitter together, but also fostered closer relationships.

2. The Larian Kreatif campaign encouraged Malaysians to share their most creative running route to stand a chance to win cool prizes

Image via BMSS

All Malaysians aged 13 and above were welcome to participate in this campaign. They had to complete a run of at least 5km and share screenshots of their creative running route on social media in order to win.

3. Malaysians recorded themselves doing house chores in the Gerak Geri Sihat campaign to win up to RM5,000 Touch 'n Go eWallet credits

Image via BMSS

As the trend of short-form videos such as TikTok and Instagram Reels continues, MOH took this opportunity to encourage Malaysians to be active by uploading a video of themselves doing their house chores creatively on TikTok. Countless Malaysians have shared their creative videos on the social media platform. Just search the hashtag #sihatsepanjanghayat to watch the videos!

4. Malaysians shared how they led a healthy lifestyle on social media with the Satu, Dua, Sihat! campaign

Image via BMSS

In this campaign, Malaysians did a variety of things, from showcasing their healthy recipes to talking about their lifestyle throughout October. All submissions were judged by TikTok influencer, Mamat Got No Chill.

Bangkok's Ratchada Train Night Market Is Back After Rumours Said It Closed Down For Good

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

It's probably been awhile since you've last set foot in Bangkok

The sights, the sounds, the massages, the smells of the street food wafting through the air while you try to avoid a tuk tuk about to run you over. I miss it. I miss everything about Thailand. I miss travelling. And I'm pretty sure many of us feel the same way.

Good news is that Bangkok is slowly becoming its lively self again and that includes Ratchada Train Night Market (Talad Rot Fai), which has just 'reopened' under a new name

In October, there were rumours that the popular night market had closed down for good, as photos of the ghost-like area surfaced on the Internet, with many expressing their sadness.

Why Aren't The Cops Investigating A Man Who Snatched A Boy Away From His Mother?

31-year-old Izwan Abdullah secretly converted himself and his children to Islam without the wife's consent in April 2013

The police said they would not pursue Izwan Abdullah, who took his son by force from his estranged wife, claiming they could not act due to conflicting orders from the shariah and civil courts.
Image via themalaymailonline.com

Izwan, 31, had converted the children to Islam in April 2013, without the mother's consent.

        thestar.com.my

On 7 April 2014, Izwan Abdullah and S. Deepa got a divorce at the High Court with the wife winning custody of their two children

Hanif noted that both the civil and shariah High Courts gave Hindu mother S. Deepa and her Muslim convert ex-husband Izwan Abdullah custody over their two children respectively.
Image via themalaymailonline.com

Deepa, 30, who filed for divorce and custody of the children in December last year, has been estranged from her husband since 2011.

        themalaymailonline.com

On Monday (7 April 2014), the Seremban High Court granted S. Deepa, 30, full custody of her two children ― a nine-year-old daughter and a six-year-old son ― as her marriage to Izwan, 31, in 2004 was a civil union and did not come under shariah law.

        themalaymailonline.com

The High Court decision overrides a Syariah Court order early last year that granted custody of the children to N Viran @ Izwan Abdullah, who became a Muslim in April last year. Justice Zabariah ruled in favour of the mother under Section 51 of the Law Reform Act, as Deepa and Viran's marriage in 2004 had been solemnised based on civil law.

        malaysiakini.com

However, the children remain Muslim converts and Deepa must pursue a separate case to revoke their conversion.

        malaysiakini.com

Two Days Later, Izwan Forcefully Snatched His Six-Year-Old Son Away From Deepa

Deepa
Image via mkini.net

Barely 48 hours (9 April 2014) after the High Court here awarded custody of both children to Deepa last Monday, Izwan snatched the boy from her house in Rumah Rakyat Sg Rotan in Jelebu. Deepa has since left her home and gone into hiding, fearing that her ex-husband would also take away their daughter.

        thestar.com.my

According to Deepa, her former husband, Izwan Abdullah, 30, came to her house in Jelebu around 9am and called out their son's name. When the boy appeared, she said, Izwan, who works with an Islamic NGO, grabbed their son and immediately ran to the car, with another person at the wheel.

        malaysiakini.com

"I held on to his leg as the car was moving but he kicked me and I fell on the road. "I have injuries on my head, legs, ankles and elbows," said S Deepa when recounting this morning's ordeal. The 30-year-old clerk later filed a report with the Seremban district police headquarters.

        malaysiakini.com

According To Izwan, He Is Protecting His Boy Against His Ex-Wife Who Would Challenge The Child's Conversion To Islam In Court

Viran Nagapan, who now goes by his Muslim name Izwan Abdullah, has allegedly abducted his son after losing the custody of his two children to his Hindu ex-wife.
Image via themalaymailonline.com

Izwan Abdullah, a Muslim-convert accused of breaching a custody order by abducting his son from his ex-wife, said he did so to ensure his son remains a Muslim.

        malaysiakini.com

Izwan said he had initially instructed his lawyers to appeal the decision by the High Court to give custody of their children to Deepa last Monday but was aghast when he read the newspapers the next day quoting his wife as saying that she would challenge their children’s conversion to Islam in court.

        thestar.com.my

“I was most upset. This I can neither allow nor accept. When the High Court awarded her custody, she was supposed to provide for them and not challenge their conversion to Islam,” he told The Star.

        thestar.com.my

Izwan, or N.Viran as he was known before his conversion, said he had nothing against his ex-wife but felt she was not fit to raise their children. “I am prepared to compromise. She can see the children every day but they must stay with me. “If they are taken away, I am sure she would turn them against Islam,” he said, adding that he had been looking after their son since being awarded custody by the Syariah court last August.

        thestar.com.my

“As a Muslim, I must be patient and leave this to Allah’s will. When the time comes, I will tell all,” he said. He also dismissed claims that his son was not safe with him. “My children are my flesh and blood. I have no reason to hurt them,” he said.

        thestar.com.my

Although The Media Is Calling This An "Abduction", The Police Have Decided Not To Take Any Action Against Izwan

IGP Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar
Image via themalaymailonline.com

IGP Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar said that the police will not investigate Izwan, a Muslim convert, for abducting his son despite the civil High Court awarding custody of the child to Deepa, a Hindu. He argued that there was no case for abduction as the Shariah High Court had earlier awarded full custody of the two children to Izwan.

        themalaymailonline.com

“I would advise both the parties to talk this over and to settle the contradictory court orders. As far as we are concerned both court orders are binding on the police,” he said.

        themalaymailonline.com

The Home Ministry Stands By The Police's View That There Was No Abduction Involved In This Issue Of Custody

Zahid Hamidi
Image via themalaymailonline.com

Home Minister Datuk Seri Dr Zahid Hamidi today endorsed the police view that no action could be taken against Izwan Abdullah for taking away his six-year-old son, Mithran, from his Hindu ex-wife, S. Deepa, last Wednesday.

        thesundaily.my

He said his ministry's stand was that of Inspector General of Police, Tan Sri Khalid Bakar, who had said this was because both the Syariah Court and the High Court had jurisdiction in the issue of custody of Mithran and his sister, Sharmila, 9. "What was mentioned by the IGP is the official stand of the Home Ministry,' he told reporters today.

        thesundaily.my

However, Not Many Agree With Them.
Tourism Minister Nazri Aziz Says This Is A Clear Cut Case Of Kidnapping That The Police Should Not Ignore

Nazri Aziz

Earlier today, former law minister Nazri Aziz had also criticised the police for their response, saying it was a clear cut case of kidnapping.

        freemalaysiatoday.com

He also said the Cabinet had decided in 2009 that the children be raised in the common religion at the time of marriage, should one of their parent convert to Islam. “This is not a question of Izwan being right under Syariah law.It is a civil law marriage, it is the civil court, we must respect the civil court’s ruling. They have the jurisdiction. The high court ruling was correct. The police should not allow him to get away with kidnapping the child,” he told English daily The Star.

Women Rights Activist, Maria Chin Abdullah Says This Is A Criminal Act As Izwan Is Violating The High Court's Order

Maria Chin Abdullah
Image via themalaymailonline.com

Women rights activist, Maria Chin Abdullah took the police to task today for not taking action on the abduction of S Deepa’s son, saying it was a criminal act. “It is nothing short of kidnapping, especially after the Seremban High Court granted the right of custody to the wife.”

        freemalaysiatoday.com

Maria, who heads a community empowerment NGO, Empower, said that action should be taken against Izwan for violating the high court order. She also said it was irresponsible of the police to say that they can’t act on the matter when they were supposed to protect public safety.

        freemalaysiatoday.com

Muslim Groups Disagree, Saying That Izwan Is Upholding The Syariah Court's Decision To Give Him The Custodial Rights

Deepa Subramaniam (left) and her lawyer Jayamalar Raman (right) outside the High Court in Seremban on April 7, 2014.

The Muslim group argued that Izwan technically did not abduct his son as the Shariah High Court has awarded him custodial rights. “To say abduction is a bit harsh... you have to remember that the Shariah Court did give Izwan custodial rights so to him, he is only upholding the court decision,” said Shamsul Azhar Yahya, one of the Muslim coalition’s representative.

        themalaymailonline.com

The Negri Sembilan government must intervene over an inter-religious custody battle that saw a Muslim convert abduct his son, Muslim groups said today when insisting Islamic matters fell within the state’s jurisdiction.

        themalaymailonline.com

Gabungan Pertubuhan Dakwah Negri Sembilan spokesperson Hanif Hassan, who is from the Malaysian Association of Shariah Lawyers, claimed that the state government could be the final arbiter in the matter as it was an Islamic issue. “If you look at the Federal Constitution religion falls under state jurisdiction. To solve this problem, the state government must take action by enacting a law that is more comprehensive,” he told a press conference here.

        themalaymailonline.com

Lawyers Reveal That Police Often Refrain From Taking Action When There Are Conflicting Orders From The Shariah Court And High Court

Civil liberties lawyer Syahredzan Johan said it was the norm for the police to refrain from acting when there are conflicting orders from Shariah and civil courts, but he stopped short of calling it a standard operating procedure. “It fuels the perception, rightly or wrongly, that Muslims get preference by the authorities. And it gives a bad image to the religion,” Syahredzan told The Malay Mail Online.

        themalaymailonline.com

However, The Police's Refusal To Take Action Encourages People To Take The Law Into Their Own Hands

Constitutional lawyer Edmund Bon

The police’s refusal to act against a Muslim convert for allegedly abducting his son despite a civil court granting the mother custody may encourage more such cases in the future, lawyers have said.

        themalaymailonline.com

“At the end of the day, by saying they can’t do anything, are they giving a signal in future cases that people can take the law into their own hands and police will do nothing?” asked Bar Council’s Human Rights Committee co-chairman Andrew Khoo here. “If that’s the case, that’s a serious indictment in abrogation of duties and responsibility to protect citizens from harm, from use of force.”

        themalaymailonline.com

Constitutional lawyer Edmund Bon pointed to a bigger issue within the police force itself, saying the officers have taken the matter into their own hands without seeking legal advice. “The IGP and police don’t quite understand law as they ought to … The IGP should have at least referred the matter to the Attorney-General for legal views and interpretation if he was unclear,” Bon claimed. According to Bon, the IGP should have enforced the High Court’s order as the Shariah court’s order was not applicable to a non-Muslim, in this case Deepa, who is a Hindu.

DAP Lim Kit Siang Says IGP Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar Should Step Down For Not Upholding The Law

Lim Kit Siang
Image via themalaymailonline.com

Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Tan Sri Khalid Abu Bakar should step down if he is unwilling to act on the alleged abduction of a boy by his Muslim-convert father in Seremban, senior DAP leader Lim Kit Siang said today.

        malaysiandigest.com

“The failure and refusal of the Inspector-General of Police to uphold the law and to ignore the Seremban child abduction case is the height of irresponsibility for the top policeman in the country,” he said in a statement.

        malaysiandigest.com

“The IGP should remember his sworn oath to uphold the law and the Constitution and should take immediate action to ensure that the ‘abducted’ son is immediately returned to her mother who has lawful custody under following their civil union,” Lim said.

        malaysiandigest.com

While Syariah Court Is Restricted To Muslims, The Civil Court Applies To All. In This Case, The Lines Between The Two Legal Systems Are Blurred.

In 2009, the Cabinet announced a prohibition against the unilateral conversion of children to Islam by either parent, to prevent further cases where custody battles are locked in a legal limbo that sits in the void between the civil and Syariah court systems.

        themalaymailonline.com

Malaysia operates parallel legal systems with civil law that applies universally and Syariah law that is restricted to Muslims. In theory, the two systems are distinct and separate. In practice, however, the lines are often blurred, and more so in joint cases when some parties are Muslim and others are not.

Dengan Bajet Bawah RM300, Wanita Ini Kongsi Cara Simpan Lauk Mentah Untuk 3 Minggu. Nice!

Bulan puasa bakal kunjung tiba, ibu-ibu yang bekerja di luar sana pastinya mempunyai perancangan dan jadual yang lebih rapi untuk memastikan anda ada masa untuk memasak buat keluarga bukan?

Image via Vulture

Tidak dinafikan, memang ianya akan menjadi lebih sukar. Namun sebagai seorang wanita dan ibu yang bekerja, ia bukannya alasan untuk anda tidak meluangkan masa buat keluarga anda. Lebih-lebih lagi menyediakan juadah berbuka puasa buat mereka.Tapi dengan cara yang betul, anda boleh menggunakan masa yang ada pada hujung minggu untuk menyediakan segala kelengkapan masakan terlebih dahulu. Prep segala bahan-bahan mentah dan sayur-sayuran, bila nak digunakan nanti anda cuma ambil sahaja. Portion juga boleh diagihkan terus. Supaya tidak membazir.Kan lebih senang dengan cara ini.

Image via Giphy

Yang penting sekali, pastikan portion bahan mentah yang anda prep itu cukup untuk bilangan ahli keluarga anda.Jangan terlebih dan jangan terkurang.

Seperti perkongsian seorang wanita Naeamah Balqis tentang teknik terbaik prep stok bahan mentah dan sayur-sayuran untuk 3 minggu dengan bajet bawah RM300. Memang terbaik!

Image via Naeamah Balqis / Facebook

Ibu-ibu bekerja di luar sana boleh cuba teknik ini. Memang menjimatkan duit, masa dan kerja anda akan menjadi lebih senang. Boleh prep semua bahan masakan terlebih dahulu, nak masak ambil je. Wah, mudahnya!

Perancangan awal bagi menyimpan stok bahan mentah dan sayur-sayuran bulan April 2019 untuk tiga minggu. Pertama sekali, sediakan bekas yang cukup untuk memasukkan semua bahan masakan.

Bagaimana cara untuk simpan lauk mentah menggunakan cara yang lebih mudah dan menjimatkan?

Ini pula merupakan cara simpan sayur-sayuran menggunakan teknik yang sama. Memang akan memudahkan kerja memasak.

Image via Naeamah Balqis / Facebook

Image via Naeamah Balqis / Facebook

Image via Naeamah Balqis / Facebook

Ramai yang tertanya, berapa bajet bahan mentah dan juga sayur-sayuran yang dibeli untuk hampir satu bulan ini? Di bawah merupakan perincian kos yang dibuat:

Bahan mentah:Udang - RM 25.00 (1.474 kg)Sotong - RM 66.00 (3.304 kg)Ikan Tenggiri - RM 47.00 (2.136 kg)Ayam - RM 13.00 (sekor)Ayam pencen - RM 20.00 (2 ekor)Ikan lolong - RM 13.00Isi udang - RM 12Jumlah = RM 196.00 (Lauk)RM 47.00 (sayur - cili hijau + cili api merah + ubi kentang + kobis unggu + serai + tomato + kacang panjang + daun ketumbar + halia + lobak + pak choy + cili benggala + + terung + salad + bawang merah + bawang putih).

Image via Naeamah Balqis / Facebook

Image via Naeamah Balqis / Facebook

Image via Naeamah Balqis / Facebook

Bajet bergantung kepada keperluan individu...saya bertiga...Adakalanya akan lebih juga sikit bajet tu..contoh kalau saya nak buat nasi ayam..saya akan beli ayam lain..sbb ayam yang ada tak sesuai untuk buat nasi ayam..ayam dipotong kecik2..Saya bukan nak tunjuk bajet saya....saya nak tunjuk cara saya simpan lauk untuk mudahkan untuk kita mak2 ni masak...dan juga cara simpan sayur2 untuk tahan lama terutama mak2 bekerjaya keluar pepagi hari dan hampir nak malam baru balik mcm saya...Jangan ckp peti besar boleh la buat mcm ni...saya dah kahwin 15 tahun....baru kawin dulu peti kecik jer...tp saya buat mcm ni jugak..saya letak dlm plastik...cuma tak letak air la bila letak dlm plastik...cuma rasa kering sikit lauk tu berbanding yang letak air mcm sekarang...tp ok sangat lagi dari tak buat apa2 kan.

Bekas yang digunakan boleh didapati di Mr DIY, murah pun murah! Oh ya, di Kedai Eco RM2 pun ada. Tak perlu mahal-mahal. Nak simpan lauk aje.

Peace And Stability Of Malaysian At Stake If Sedition Act Is Abolished, Says Ex-IGP

Abolishing the Sedition Act would threaten the peace and stability enjoyed by Malaysians as the rights and privileges of Bumiputeras could be challenged, claimed former Inspector-General of Police

Former Inspector General of Police Tan Sri Musa Hassan

The peace and stability enjoyed by the people in the country can be shaken if the Sedition Act 1948 is abolished because several rights and privileges of the Bumiputera stipulated in the Federal Constitution can be challenged.

        malaysiandigest.com

Former Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Musa Hassan said, right now, the Act provided protection on several matters concerning the institution of monarchy, Bumiputera rights and privileges, as well as freedom of speech.

        freemalaysiatoday.com

"I think if the Sedition Act is abolished, anybody can challenge the privileges given to Bumiputera in the Constitution"

Former Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Musa Hassan says the Sedition Act provides protection on several matters concerning the monarchy, Bumiputera rights and privileges, and freedom of speech.

"If this happens, I think the country will not be peaceful any more and public safety is at stake," he said after appearing as a guest speaker in the Ruang Bicara Bernama TV programme last night.

        themalaysianinsider.com

The other guest speaker in the one-hour programme was lawyer and political analyst Hasnal Rezua Merican. Musa said the act need not be abolished or replaced by a new law, but could be modified and upgraded to meet the current situation.

        bernama.com.my

Prior to this, the government had proposed to abolish the Act and replace it with the National Harmony Act

Image via rappler.com

The Sedition Act, of which many consider to be draconian, has once again come under the limelight after several individuals, including a law lecturer, a journalist and opposition politicians were charged under it.

        therakyatpost.com

In July 2012, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak announced that the 1948 law would be repealed once the National Harmony Act is introduced in its place. However, there have been calls made by some quarters for the Act to be retained.

13 Things You'll Definitely Relate To If You Work In A Freezing Cold Office

1. At the beginning of every day, walking into your fully-conditioned office is a relief after the blazing hot sun and sticky, humid air outside...

Image via Somee Cards

2. A few minutes in, you start to regret not bringing an extra jacket or a scarf because OH MY GOD IT'S SO COLD

Image via Megan Nicole Dong / Sketchshark Blogspot

3. You might be wearing jeans, long pants, a long skirt or dress, but that doesn't stop the icy cold air from seeping in wherever and whenever they can

Image via Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures

Needless to say, wearing a short dress or skirt is out of the question.

4. You have, like, 3 seconds to down your morning cup of coffee before it freezes over

Image via Gifsoup

Okay, we exaggerate, but cold "hot latte" with coagulated foam is NOT a good way to start the day.

5. You start bringing your blanket to work so you can huddle in your cozy 'human burrito' when it gets too cold...

Image via Twitter

6. ... Or zip your hoodie up all the way up to your face

Image via Instagram @d_kidz

7. There are times when it feels like your fingers are going to fall right off because of frostbite. How to type report like this?!

Image via Instagram @melissalee

8. You grasp at every opportunity to bring warmth back to your fingers - a hot cup of coffee or tea, toilet hand dryer, freshly-printed paper...

Image via Twitter

Image via Twitter

9. Sometimes you hide in the toilet for a few extra minutes because sitting on the jamban is a lot warmer than sitting at your desk

Image via MTV

10. You can't wait to step outside for lunch because you get to feel the warm, golden rays of the sun on your face again

Image via Brooklyn Brewery

11. On rainy days, you wonder if you should make a trip to Uniqlo to get winter wear... cause it sure feels like the North Pole right now

Image via Instagram @hanirara

12. Then your nose betrays you and decides to give you sniffles ALL DAY. Then you get headaches. And lose all motivation to be productive.

Image via StockClip.com

13. The worst part is, no one knows why the air-con is so cold or how to turn it up because "it's centralised"

Image via Tumblr

A.k.a. there's nothing we can do. :( :( :(

Is your workplace way too cold for normal humans? Let us know how you and your colleagues deal with it in the comments below!

Associations Plead Govt To Let Malls Open In July Or Else 50% Of Them Will Close For Good

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

Associations representing Malaysian shopping mall and retail industries released a statement on Tuesday, 22 June, appealing to the government to allow them to reopen for business next month

Retailers that were considered non-essential businesses were ordered to close during the latest round of the Movement Control Order (MCO) that began on 1 June.The joint statement was released by the business groups that consist of the Malaysia Shopping Mall Association, Malaysia Retailers Association, Malaysia Retail Chain Association, Bumiputera Retailers Organisation, and the Selangor and KL Electrical Home Appliances Dealers' Association, reported Malay Mail.Among the concerns expressed was that more businesses would be forced to close for good if the current restrictions were to continue in July.The business groups also emphasised that economic recovery may be a difficult feat once the COVID-19 pandemic is under control."Presently, already 20-30% of shops in malls have been closed due to the adverse conditions of the past 16 months, and with 30% of staff being laid off, this amounts to 300,000 personnel," the statement read.

The business groups predict that there will be another 50% of the mall and retail industry that will close their doors for good if they are not reopened in the beginning of July

Retailers who risk closing for good include street-front shops, prominent domestic, and international retail brands. Their employees are also at risk of being laid off.The business groups warned that once international brands exit Malaysia, it would be twice as hard to pull them back into the country."With these massive lay-offs and shop closures, the entire retail and shopping malls industries will be grievously and critically damaged and will need massive efforts and time to rebuild the malls' ecosystem or the malls themselves will permanently close, and the retail supply chain will be deeply fractured," the statement read.

Image via Firdaus Latif/Malay Mail

They also cited the Ministry of Health (MOH) data, saying the retail and shopping sector contributed to only 0.8% of overall COVID-19 cases recorded in May

"We should not be unduly penalised with closure from operating. Therefore, we believe the retail and shopping sector should be reopened immediately to provide essential and other services to the community without risk of infectivity," the business groups stressed.They argued that shopping malls only allow entry to individuals whose MySejahtera status is 'Low Risk' and display body temperature that is below 37.5ºC, reported New Straits Times.They said other than having shoppers' visits cut down to a maximum of two hours, shoppers were also diligent in practising social distancing and wearing masks.The business groups argued that shopping malls are safe places to not only stock up on necessities, but could serve as avenues of mental and physical relief. This will be especially refreshing for the public since activities involving crowds, promotional events, and congregations of any sort are banned."We appeal to the government to take all these positive factors into account in the upcoming review and allow the immediate reopening of all trades in the malls, except for those in the negative list," the groups said.

Last week, Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin announced the government's four-phase recovery plan

Muhyiddin said that each phase of the recovery plan will be based on factors consisting of the daily COVID-19 case average numbers, the capacity of the public health system, and the vaccination rate of the general population."During this Phase 3, all sectors of the economy will be allowed to operate except activities listed on the negative list, such as activities that have a high risk of spreading COVID-19 or involving large crowds," he said.The prime minister believes the country will be able to reach Phase 3 by the end of August.

How Much Should Malaysian Graduates Pay To Attend Their Own Convocation?

Universities have been organising convocations for centuries now, as a way to celebrate the glorious achievements of all their students.
It is not unheard of for universities to charge a certain amount of fee for the convocation ceremonies, but what is considered as a reasonable rate?

Image via MMU Malaysia

For a clearer vision on the issue, SAYS spoke to 24 Malaysian graduates from various local universities and asked them more about their convocation ceremonies

Most local universities offer a "convocation package”, which usually include complimentary entrance tickets for guests, photos on the stage, and some light refreshments. Certain universities require graduands to make a deposit for the graduate robes, where the money will be refunded once the robe is returned to the university.We asked them the following questions:1. When was your convocation?2. Where was it held?3. How much did you have to pay?4. What do you think about the price you had to pay?

Here’s what they had to say:
(PS: The following list is arranged in alphabetical order.)

1. HELP University
