'Pretzel Dog' Inspired Us To Rename These Brands And Other Random Things

You've no doubt heard of the hoo-ha surrounding Auntie Anne's Pretzel Dogs by now, especially the part where the chain was denied a halal cert because the menu item contained the word "dog"

A QA-cum-halal executive working with the pretzel company recently revealed that the Department of Islamic Development (JAKIM) had told them to change the name of its Pretzel Dog to a more appropriate option, like 'Pretzel Sausage'. JAKIM would later clarify that food vendors looking to apply for a halal cert should avoid using words like "ham", "bak kut teh", "bacon", "beer", "rum", "hotdog", "charsiew", and other words related to non-halal food items when naming their products, as they will "confuse Muslims".

In fact, some iconic food names have been quietly changed in the past few years to meet JAKIM's requirements, such as A&W's Coney Dog and Root Beer, which are now known as Chicken/Beef Coney and RB respectively

A&W's Root Beer has been renamed A&W RB on the menu boards.

In addition, A&W's canned Root Beer is now known known as "Sarsaparilla", while F&N's Ginger Beer has been renamed "Ginger Ade".

While the restrictions are only enforced for food names in Malaysia, what will it be like if they were implemented on random stuff and everyday words? We tried out some alternatives:

1. Hush Puppies will not only rebrand themselves, the clothing brand will have to hire a new (and definitely cuter) mascot too

2. Sorry De Beers, but you gotta go with a name that better reflects your shiny, sparkly diamonds

3. The iconic '70s band Black Dog Bone gets a hip revamp for the 21st century

4. Almost every Malaysian kid has had - or wanted to have - a hamster for a pet, but it's time to bring them closer to their relatives with a new name

5. To eat, or not to eat, that is ALWAYS the question

6. For those with kids who are obsessed with the 'Mickey Mouse Clubhouse', there's always the 'Hebat' version of the super catchy Hot Dog song to fall back on

BONUS: In a total coincidence, Jay Chou has a song called 'Silence'... which translates to 'An Jing' in Mandarin. Just thought you should know.

Johor Sultan Says We Should Replace The Term "Mat Rempit" With "Brother Motor"

Yesterday, 24 March, Johor Sultan Ibrahim Almarhum Sultan Iskandar advised Malaysians to stop using the label "mat rempit", as it tarnishes the image of motorcyclists

Image via Bikes Republic

According to Bernama, he told this to the crowd at the launch of the 2018 Malaysia Bike Week Jamboree at the Malaysia Agro Exposition Park Serdang site, organised by GPMoto.The ruler, who is a motorcycle enthusiast himself, said that the term "mat rempit" gives the impression that motorcyclists are nothing but road gangsters.

Instead, the Sultan suggested the label "brother motor" to be used in its place, as it reflects a "disciplined and courteous motorcyclist"

Image via Carigold

He explained that, "it is also to show that motorcyclists are a close-knit group, like a family."

The Sultan reminded "brother motors" to always be careful on the road and not treat it like a race circuit

Bernama reported that the Johor ruler told the crowd a story of when he reprimanded motorcyclists racing in front of Sultanah Aminah Hospital in Johor Baru.He told them to"try and put yourselves in patients’ shoes," adding that, "Perhaps, if there is a "brother motor" in the ward, he might complain, "babe, how can you make so much noise when I am suffering here!"

The Johor ruler added that parents should keep an eye on their children, and not allow them to ride motorcycles without a licence

"Let them cry now, rather than us mourning later," he said.

Ringgit Hits 24-Year Low Against US Dollar

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

After opening at its lowest level against the US dollar since the Asian financial crisis in 1998, the Malaysian ringgit continues to plummet

As more investors shift their assets to safe havens as a result of uncertain global economic outlooks, the slip continues to work in line with lower oil prices as well.At 9.05am today, 14 September, the local currency slid to 4.5200/5220 against the greenback (US dollar) from the 4.5070/5085 at yesterday's close. This comes after the ringgit slid to 4.5010/5035 last Wednesday, 7 September.

According to ActivTrades trader Dyogenes Rodrigues Diniz, the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) showed a higher-than-expected inflation percentile

According to Diniz, the index stands at 8.3% as opposed to the forecasted 8.1%."The higher reading left investors wondering about how big an interest rate hike we could see at the next Federal Reserve meeting on [21 September]. Prior to the release of the CPI data, the market was predicting a 0.5 [to] 0.75 increase, but now many have raised their forecast to a 0.75 [to] 1.0 per cent hike," he said in a statement to Bernama. Diniz had noted that the markets have responded strongly to the data, thereby resulting in another strong appreciation of the US dollar against other currencies.

Image via TODAY

Nonetheless, Finance Minister Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz stated that Malaysia is not experiencing an economic crisis

Referencing the low trading level between the ringgit against the US dollar, he explained that the local currency should be looked at holistically against other currencies, and not just the US.The ringgit has continued to soar against other major currencies around the globe. The unit rose against the Singapore dollar to 3.2153/2174 from Tuesday's close of 3.2320/2333, and also appreciated against the Japanese yen to 3.1282/1301 from 3.1690/1703.It has also climbed against the British pound at 5.1989/2012 from 5.2768/2786 yesterday, and increased against the Euro to 4.5105/5125 from 4.5818/5833 beforehand.

Woman Thanks Elderly Neighbours For Picking Up Her Parcels Even When They're Too Heavy

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

A Malaysian recently shared her gratitude for having neighbours who often help her when she is not at home, even in the smallest of ways

Facebook user Asmawati Abdul Eid wrote that she often comes home to see her delivery packages sitting on the wall between her and her neighbour's house."When I opened my car door, I saw that my neighbour placed my things from my runner on the wall again," she wrote last Tuesday, 14 March, thankful for the small favour.

Asmawati explained that a nice elderly Chinese couple lives next door to her and always picks up her delivery parcels when she's not at home

"They will always pick up my stuff from the runners and place it on the wall. Whatever the runner sends, they put it up there," she said.Sometimes, the delivery riders will also send photos of the elderly aunty next door holding her packages to ask her if she is okay with it, to which she always consents.However, what worries her is when she orders heavy items to be sent to her doorstep."Imagine, sometimes I order 8kg bags of cat food, and they still lift it up and put it on the wall."They are over the age of 60, and taking care of their grandchildren while babysitting other kids. I've already told them to just leave the bags at the gate because the bags are so heavy, it's difficult for them," she said.However, she said the elderly aunty always replies, "If it rains, your things may spoil. It's okay, Aunty will put it on the wall."

Feeling bad, the Selangor resident said she has gone to the pet store to buy the cat food herself so that her neighbours would not have to carry the heavy bags

"Sometimes, they also help to move my clothes when it rains, and arrange it over this wall," Asmawati wrote, adding that the rest of her neighbours' family members, including their children and in-laws, always ask her how she's doing when they see her.She also told SAYS that they have been neighbours for about one and a half years now, and that she appreciates them even though they are of different races and faiths."We should respect each other, regardless of race, religion, and status," she said.

A woman in Subang also once shared about her kind neighbour who helps her pull in her laundry when it's about to rain:

China's Knock-Off Pokémon GO Is What Nightmares Are Made Of

Ah, China - the country that's known for utilising the common corn in creative ways, ridiculously long glass bridges and spanking employees in the rear for poor performance. Adding to that extensive list is a rip off version of the popular mobile game that everyone around you is playing, Pokémon GO.

Pikachu is, obviously, afraid of the future.
Image via Giphy

The app in question is Pokeball Coach, created by the folks at Rejected Games: FPS Adventure & Sport Simulation Adventure. What a memorable company name.

Anyway, the idea behind Pokeball Coach is exactly what it is - to help trainers master the art of throwing Pokéballs

Squirtle...?
Image via APK Quick

Since Niantic has yet to add a practice feature to the game, the geniuses at Rejected Games: FPS Adventure & Sport Simulation Adventure thought it would be a good idea to give you the liberty of throwing as many Pokéballs as you want to, without worrying about stocking up at your nearby mosque/church/temple a.k.a Pokéstops.

Since it's unofficial, the app had to use characters that looked similar to the Pokémon you grew up, with some differences to avoid getting sued. That’s where things went awry.

Image via Pokeball Coach

Snorlax looks like it hasn't slept for days because he's too tired from holding #2Kerja. Like, it lost so much weight! Or, for all we know, it could be high on weed. The possibilities are endless.

Okay, this is certainly not the Squirtle we know and love

So much rage.
Image via Pokeball Coach

Eyebrows on fleek, though. Seriously, we couldn't even get brows like that when some of us tried eyebrow threading for the first time. Squirtle got the eyebrow game in a chokehold!

On the other hand, Charmander looks like it's done with life as a Pokémon

Image via Pokeball Coach

"For goodness sake, just catch me already. I don't care anymore."

When we told you that you'll never look at Pikachu the same way again, we meant it

Image via Pokeball Coach

At least they got the cheeks correct.

Possibly due to copyright issues with Niantic, the official PlayStore version of the app has been updated to use cute animals and multi-coloured balls instead of the chemically-enhanced 'Pokémons' you see above

Image via APK Pure

Fortunately, you still can download the older version of the app here. As the saying goes, once on the Internet, forever on the Internet.Knock yourselves out and may you dream of these terrible creatures tonight.

Don't get the hype that's surrounding Pokémon GO? You're not alone!

                People Who Don't Play Pokémon GO Are Going Through These Painful Struggles

Sorry, Pokémon no go.

Lelaki Share Kisah Isteri Persiapkan Dirinya Dengan 'House Chores' Sebelum Meninggal Dunia

Setiap seseorang itu pasti akan diuji tuhan, semua orang akan merasai kehilangan

Image via Islam Itu Indah

Kesakitan kehilangan orang tersayang. Yang selalu disisi, dihati dan menemani jiwa setiap hari. Namun bila sampainya masa tuhan untuk ambil dia semula. Kita akan rasa satu dentuman halilintar yang memecah gunung-ganang, iaitu sakit yang tidak terhingga.Namun begitu, harus dilihat bahawa sebenarnya kenangan dengan mereka itulah yang akan menjai sumber kekuatan. Ingatan bersamanya yang mampu membuat kita meneruskan hidup di samping tidak lupa untuk mendoakannya  dia, kerana dia ada dalam jalur masa hidup kita nan indah dulu.

Seorang pengguna Facebook, Khairul Abdullah telah berkongsikan kisah dia meneruskan hidup sekembalinya isteri tercinta ke Rahmatullah awal Ogos lalu

Image via Facebook khairul Abdullah

Arwah telah meninggalkan suami bersama tiga orang anak yang masih kecil; Khaleef, 4 tahun, Khaleel, 3 tahun, dan Khaleed, 7 bulan. Arwah telah meninggal dunia akibat jangkitan kuman yang menyebabkan kegagalan organ.Jika sebelum ini, segala urusan rumahtangga dilakukan bersama, kini Khairul terpaksa melakukannya seorang diri. Walau bagaimanapun, arwah isterinya telah pun mempersiapkan dirinya terlebih dahulu.

Baca perkongsian penuh di bawah:

Saya bernasib baik.Tanpa sedar, isteri telah mempersiapkan saya bagi menghadapi saat ini.Saya sering diajak untuk mengemas rumah bersama. Saya vakum, dia mop. Saya susun buku, dia lap meja, saya cuci toilet, dia kemas katil dan seterusnya begitulah.Rutin mengemas diganti-ganti. Jadi saya tahu dan pernah buat kesemuanya.

Image via Facebook Khairul Abdullah

Adakah dia sedang mempersiapkan saya?

Dia sering inginkan masakan yang dimasak di rumah. Keistimewaanya adalah memasak lauk pauk. Namun saya sering diminta masak masakan laian seperti laksa, segala jenis mee dan juga kek. Itu kebolehan saya.Ketika dia mengandungkan Khaleef, kami jauh di perantauan. Memang takde peluang nak nikmati segala masakan sewaktu bulan puasa.Macam-macam diinginkan dan habis segalanya saya kena masak, dari murtabak ke roti jala, dari sate sehingga ke soto dan segala jenis masakan.Lalu saya handal memasak. Saya champion. Saya boleh memasak apa sahaja.Memang dia sedang mempersiapkan saya.

Image via Facebook Khairul Abdullah

Anak sulung kami, Khaleef, sayalah yang menjaganya sejak di hospital lagi.

Nurse memanggil saya untuk mengajar cara menguruskan bayi seperti membasuh berak, memandi dan memakaikan lampin.Di Jerman memang begitu, suami harus belajar menguruskan anak.Kebetulan saya seorang freelance yang mempunyai kontrak pekerjaan secara fleksible. Peluang tersebut saya ambil untuk menjaga Khaleef sepenuh masa.Jadi saya belajar dan praktik lalu jadi pandai apabila melakukannya setiap hari. Saya sangat cekap dan tidak kekok menguruskan bayi.Masuk anak kedua saya bertambah pandai. Masuk anak ketiga maka saya dah jadi champion.Memang dia sedang mempersiapkan saya.

Anak-anak diajar untuk duduk di dalam carseat sejak hari pertama keluar dari hospital.

Walaupun anak menangis dia tidak mahu mengambilnya walaupun saya suruh begitu.Katanya anak harus dididik, nanti mereka tiada disiplin. Walaupun kesian melihat anak menangis namun dia mahu hati saya keras di dalam mendisplinkan anak.Memang benar, dia sedang mempersiapkan saya.

Apabila berseorangan begini menguruskan anak ke sekolah atau ketika keluar dari rumah ianya sangat membantu. Bayangkanlah kalau anak jenis tak duduk dalam carseat?Macamana saya nak bawa baby? Macamana dengan si abang dan adik yang bakal melompat dan bergaduh di belakang? Pasti menganggu tumpuan pemanduan saya.Jadi saya bernasib baik. Semua yang saya belajar, amalkan dan didik pada anak-anak rupanya sangat berguna untuk saya hari ini.Sememangnya dia sedang mempersiapkan saya.

Katanya kami perlu ada dryer di rumah. Tak perlu lagi jemur pakaian. Nanti dengan anak yang bertambah, jumlah pakaian bertambah dan kerja nak membasuh jadi semakin berat.

Image via Facebook Khairul Abdullah

Dan memang benar. Kerja-kerja laundry jadi sangat mudah. Namun kerja melipat dan menyusun masih lagi berat. Dia tidak mahu saya buat katanya saya seringkali gagal mengikut prosedur dan spesifikasi yang telah dia tetapkan.Namun dia sering mengajak saya meneman dia ketika melipat dan menyusun pakaian. Yang pakaian begini harus disusun begini di dalam almari ini. Yang ini pula harus begini dan seterusnya. Semuanya bersistem dan ianya sangat memudahkan.Dan hari ini, walaupun adik yang datang ke rumah tolong melipat pakaian, ianya tetap disusun seperti sistem yang telah ditetapkan. Mudah untuk saya mencari pakaian terutaman pakaian anak-anak yang saya perlu siapkan setiap pagi.Sememangnya dia telah mempersiapkan saya.

Beberapa minggu sebelum pemergiannya dia ada memberitahu saya tentang fail-fail setiap urusan rumahtangga.

Dari fail anak-anak, schedule vaksin, akaun bank, akaun tabung haji, di mana letaknya segala dokumen dan pelbagai maklumat pengurusan kewangan yang perlu saya tahu.Alhamdulillah, hari ini semuanya saya tahu. Semuaya tersusun kemas di dalam fail dan di dalam rekod excel yang dia buat. Semua login serta password akaun media sosial, perbankan, email dan sebagainya saya tahu.Dengan mudah saya menutup semua akaun media sosial beliau dan juga akses ke akaun perbankan dan akaun-akaun online yang lain.Akhirnya, memang saya telahpun bersedia.

Pemergiannya sangat mengejutkan. Saya dan anak-anak sentiasa redha yang jodoh kami dengannya hanya setakat itu sahaja.

Image via Facebook Khairul Abdullah

Hidup perlu diteruskan bagi menunaikan amanahnya.Ramai orang kagum bagaimana saya melakukannya. Seorang lelaki yang perlu menjaga 3 anak kecil yang seorangnya masih lagi bayi.Bolehkah dia tukar lampin? Bolehkah dia beri susu? Bolehkah dia beri makan? Bolehkah dia tidurkan anak-anaknya? Bolehkah itu, bolehkah ini dan macam-macam lagi.Yer, saya boleh.Ini kerana saya telahpun bersedia.Terima kasih wahai sayang.Terima kasih.Adakah anda semua sudah bersedia?#diariseorangsuperdaddy

Kelantan Is Now The First State In Malaysia To Allow Public Caning For Syariah Offenders

Kelantan has approved public caning following an amendment to the Kelantan Syariah Criminal Procedure Enactment 2002.
The PAS-led state will now be the first in the country to introduce public caning to Syariah offenders.

New Straits Times (NST) reported that the amendment was passed by the state assembly today, 12 July. Canings for offenders under the Syariah law are usually carried out in enclosed areas (prisons), away from the view of the public. The cane used is usually smaller compared to to the one used for judicial caning and the offender will be fully dressed, receiving the strokes on their back instead of bare buttocks like in the judicial caning system. "However, with the amendment, the sentencing can be carried out in public or prison depending on the court’s decision. This is in accordance with the religion, as in Islam the sentencing must be done in public," said Kelantan Deputy Menteri Besar Datuk Mohd Amar Nik Abdullah today, as reported by NST.

"Among the amendments are the introduction of public canings and the acceptance of video and other electronic equipment as evidence in court trials."

Other amendments include the technical details of how the caning will be carried out. According to the NST report, the amendments were proposed by Kelantan state Islamic Development, Dakwah and Information committee chairman Datuk Nassuruddin Daud and seconded by state Women, Family and Welfare committee chairman Mumtaz Md Nawi.Nassuruddin said that it has been about 15 years since changes were made to the system.

PAS has been pushing for the enforcement of the proposed amendments to the Syariah Court Act (Criminal Jurisdiction) 1965 or RUU355 that seeks far greater punishments for Syariah offenders

Under Act 355 that was passed in 1965 and amended in 1984, a Syariah offender can be punished with a jail sentence of no more than three years, a fine of no more than RM5,000 and six lashes, if convicted. PAS seeks for amendment to increase the Syariah Courts' punishment caps to a 30-year jail term, a fine of up to RM100,000, and up to 100 strokes of the cane.

How Education Ministry Plans To Use Classrooms To Fight Terrorism In Malaysia

With acts of terrorism rampant and creeping into our daily lives at a worrying level, the Malaysian Education ministry has informed of plans to incorporate anti-terrorism teachings into the education system

The Malaysian government wants to nip this problem in the bud and it is looking at bringing the fight against terror into classrooms. "We are ready to work with police to have briefings for our students," Malaysia's deputy education minister, Chong Sin Woon, told Channel NewsAsia.

        channelnewsasia.com

While it is difficult to pin the reason on why a person decides to join heinous terrorist groups, it is most often the young, impressionable ones that fall prey to the lure of these terrorists and their cruel ideas

On December 31, a Malaysian student in Egypt became the first student to be charged at the Sessions Court in Sepang for supporting the terrorist group, al-Qaeda.Deputy Education Minister II Chong Sin Woon, was commenting on efforts of the ministry to curb students from being easily influenced by terrorist ideology, especially the Islamic State (IS).

        freemalaysiatoday.com

Hence, in their efforts to put an end to the spread of terrorism in Malaysia, deputy education minister, Chong Sin Woon, explained that they will be collaborating with security forces and the police to start educational talks in school about the dangers of terrorism

Deputy Education Minister Chong Sin Woon

Deputy Education Minister Chong Sin Woon said for the time being, most of the guidance were in the form of talks conducted by police and other security agencies at various places including schools. "Together with the police and security forces, we will start disseminating information in schools this year," he told reporters after visiting Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan Cina (SJKC) Pu Nan in Muar today.Chong was commenting on the efforts of the ministry to stop pupils from being easily influenced by terrorist ideology especially Isis.

        themalaysianinsider.com

According to Chong, parents of school-going children are more than accepting of this new idea, with most asking the authorities to specifically educate the students on what these terrorists, especially members of the ISIS do

According to Catholic Online, ISIS uses images like this to instill fear in people

Details of the collaboration are still being worked out but parents are already welcoming the idea."I support (the idea). It should be done. Give them the right information about IS (Islamic State). A lot of people don't know what IS is, who these terrorists really are,” said Syawal Jumil, father of a student.Siti Mazli, a mother, said: "As a parent, I worry they're exposed to (the wrong) things. But if they are told from young what's right, then there's less concern.”

        channelnewsasia.com

Meanwhile, Paimuzi Yahya, director of the Federal Territory Islamic Religious Department thinks that proper Islamic religious teachings could help the young students stay on the right moral pathway

Religious authorities believe proper Islamic education in schools can keep the young on the right path, with Malaysia's Federal Territories having its first-ever primary school combining the national curriculum with an Islamic school curriculum."All the wrong things happen when you don't have morals,” said Paimuzi Yahya, director of the Federal Territory Islamic Religious Department. “They have the knowledge but they don't apply it. So we hope that what comes out of schools like this are brilliant students not just in terms of academia but also their character."

[PHOTOS] DBKL Shuts Down Filthy Noodle Factory Littered With Rat Droppings In Segambut

The Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) has issued a closure order to a noodle processing factory in Segambut for its unsanitary premise

In a Facebook post yesterday, 24 June, DBKL said the department sent five officers to the factory named Yamarico Tea, located on Jalan Segambut Selatan.The officers found that rats were roaming around the food processing area and their droppings were spotted everywhere.Upon inspection, the officers also learned that the factory did not appoint a pest control contractor to regularly maintain the premise.

Photos showed black stains all over the floors and walls, and the noodles were placed in the open without any covers

DBKL noted that the toilet is "dirty and smelly" too.Three foreigners working in the factory were not vaccinated for typhoid and failed to wear an apron or kitchen head cap while handling food."The equipment and food processing machinery are dirty and outdated. The location and structure of the premise are not suitable to be a food processing factory," DBKL said.A photo showing a huge water tank, believed to be used to wash the noodles, was covered with black stains and had a corroded surface inside.

"Scary? Not At All" - COVID-19 Patient Shares Quarantine Experience At MAEPS Serdang

A COVID-19 patient has taken to Twitter to share his positive experience of being quarantined at the Malaysia Agro Exposition Park Serdang (MAEPS) centre in Selangor

Twitter user Afifie Chan hoped that his messages would show the real situation in the quarantine centres, which is not as bad as others found it to be.Currently still housed in MAEPS, where low-risk COVID-19 patients are sent for their mandatory 10-day quarantine after testing postive, he posted videos and photos to his Instagram Stories, answering questions he had from his followers since his admission on 7 January.

Here is a thread of Q&A on my Instagram about my quarantine experience in MAEPS, Serdang starting from 7th January 2021. Hope to spread some positivity and show the real situation. pic.twitter.com/cfbVdrt2D3— Afifie Chan (@AfifieChan) January 8, 2021

Afifie showed that the place is generally clean, well-maintained, and that the patients are all well cared for by the staff

When asked if the place was as scary as it looks, he answered, "Scary? Not at all. Comfortable and clean. You can see for yourself."He shared a video and explained that many patients have hung white sheets on the bed frames to block out the glaring lights that are on 24 hours.

The condition inside the centre. Menakutkan ke? Tak pun. Selesa and bersih. Tengok la sendiri. Yang gantung2 kain putih kat katil tu sebab lampu on 24 jam. So silau. Haha pic.twitter.com/YFIM92xzAw— Afifie Chan (@AfifieChan) January 8, 2021

He added that there are six toilets around the hall, with four to six cubicles in each, that was enough to supply all the patients."So far, I have not needed to queue or wait to use the toilets," he tweeted.As for hygiene, he said not to expect hotel standards, but the toilets and showers were clean and comfortable enough to be used.

Condition inside one of the toilet cubicle. Clean and well maintained. Selesa nak buat business and mandi. Jangan la expect cam tandas kat hotel. pic.twitter.com/mGYz1naQcq— Afifie Chan (@AfifieChan) January 8, 2021

Regarding food, Afifie had no issues and said that food is served three times a day and tasted alright

He wrote that food is normally sent right to their beds and patients often help the quarantine centre's staff to distribute the food."Patients also help to serve the food because there aren't many staff and there are thousands of us. I love the spirit in here. We are in this together," he said.

Meanwhile, when asked why the beds were all placed so close to each other with worries regarding physical distancing, Afifie replied that since they were all positive patients, they were no longer infectious to each other

He explained that was what he understood and heard from the staff and nurses, and that it was okay for them to share facilities. However, he welcomed doctors to explain more on how and why.Afifie added that foreigners and locals were housed in separate halls to make it easier for registration, observations, and announcements to be carried out.In his hall, announcements are made in Bahasa Malaysia and he showed that he has enjoyed the friendliness of the nurses, who often comically deliver the messages and also kindly serve each patient their medications one by one.

Nurse yang buat announcement ni sangat sempoi dan suntik sedikit keceriaan dalam dewan. Lawak giler. Syima patut dinaikkan pangkat! pic.twitter.com/C4m8yrcW5u— Afifie Chan (@AfifieChan) January 8, 2021

Afifie told his followers not to worry about heat in the halls too, a common Malaysian worry, as the hall was air-conditioned

However, he pointed out it would be good for patients to bring extra blankets as it could also be freezing cold.He said patients also bring their own entertainment in form of books and games to while their time away in quarantine. He has seen people play mobile games, watch Netflix, and listen to music as there are ample charging stations around the hall to charge their devices.

Nak charge phone camne? Ada guys charging station all around this hall. So far takde kes lagi and I hope memang takde la. Alhamdulillah. pic.twitter.com/fKoxtJAX42— Afifie Chan (@AfifieChan) January 9, 2021

While his experience has been great, Afifie said the thing he would remember most about his quarantine was the "Maze Runner" entrance

He described that new patients are often greeted with a warm welcome as the shutter door to the building would always loudly creak open and the patients in the hall would cheer their arrival."It's like in a movie... The cheers are to lift the spirits so the newcomers won't feel afraid. What a spirit in here," he said.

Bila orang baru admitted, pintu ni akan dibuka dan sound effect mantap. Macam dalam movie. Saya panggil ni pintu Maze Runner. Sorakan tu untuk bagi semangat pada yang baru masuk supaya diorang tak rasa takut. What a spirit in here. pic.twitter.com/rQIBLxDyp5— Afifie Chan (@AfifieChan) January 8, 2021

Netizens Praise Multilingual JPJ Officer Who Went Viral On Social Media

A Road Transport Department (JPJ) officer in Perlis has garnered instant fame for her ability to speak in multiple languages

Image via Syamsul Amir

Nur Syafiqah Azaman was featured in a video that shows her speaking in Mandarin while she attends to two students from Shandong, China, at the department's service counter. The video was uploaded by her colleague, Syamsul Amir, on Facebook yesterday, 19 September.

Hundreds of people have shared the video on Facebook, while many others have reposted it on their own page

Alkisah hari ni

Datang student dari Negara China ni utk urusan di JPJ Perlis, boleh komunikasi dlm bahasa cina ja.. English langsung tak faham sepatah pun, lucky we have a great staff Nur Syafiqah Azaman yang mmg fasih berbahasa chinese kat Front End Kaunter JPJ Perlis.

p/s: beliau jugak berlakon dalam drama Tv9 Ops Cinta Din Sardin time episode 10 kalau x silap.
 #kipidap #wopuuuchitauuuu hahahahahaPosted by Syamsul Amir on Monday, September 18, 2017

It was learned that the two people, Sun Wen Xuan, 18, and Zhai Qin Xing, 19, are students at Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM). They were there to make some enquiries on the transfer of car ownership.

"They both just bought a car to be used in the country. However, when they were carrying out the dealings at the counter, I noticed that they were not able to speak in Malay and they were struggling to speak in English.""So, I was compelled to help and give some explanation in Mandarin about the procedure, including what they needed to do at PUSPAKOM (Computerised Vehicle Inspection Centre)," explained Nur Syafiqah, as reported by Harian Metro.

According to Nur Syafiqah, she mastered Mandarin when she was studying at Sekolah Rendah Jenis Kebangsaan Cina (SJKC) Yit Min in Changlun, Kedah

"My mother is 100% Chinese and she is now a tailor in Changlun. She taught me how to speak Mandarin," the 23-year-old was quoted as saying. Meanwhile, Perlis JPJ director Shahrul Azhar Md Dali reportedly said that it is an honour and advantage for the department to have someone like Nur Syafiqah.  "I also encourage every staff, especially those at customer service division, to learn a third language (besides Malay and English) such as Mandarin or Tamil," he added.

Netizens have also praised the young lady for not just her multilingual skills, but also her exemplary attitude and setting a good example in excellent customer service

7 Things You May Have Missed During The Prime Minister's Speech

Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin held a live address from his home today, 6 October

The Prime Minister's speech was not presented in front of a live audience as he is currently undergoing self-quarantine after being in close contact with the Religious Affairs Minister who tested positive for COVID-19.

Here are a few things you might have missed in the live address today:

1. He admitted that Sabah state elections contributed to the spike in COVID-19 cases

Image via Bernama

He said, "The Sabah state elections had to be held when the Yang di-Pertua Negeri announced that the Sabah state assembly has been dissolved. It was unavoidable because we are subjected to the constitution. An election has to be held within 60 days after the state assembly is dissolved. It cannot be postponed.""I realise that the Election Commission of Malaysia has set specific standard operating procedures (SOPs) to make sure the COVID-19 pandemic will not spread due to the elections. However, some SOPs were violated."

2. The health system in Malaysia is more prepared to face the COVID-19 pandemic

Image via The Straits Times

"I assure you that contact tracing efforts nowadays are easier than that during the early stages of the COVID-19 transmission. This is because 17 million Malaysian residents use the MySejahtera application," the Prime Minister said."We are now better prepared than before in terms of experience and manpower.  We know the behaviour of the  virus better and we have enough facilities and equipment."He then explained that as of now, only 29% of the total hospital bed capacity has been used up.

3. There are seven cabinet ministers and six deputy ministers undergoing home quarantine

Image via Bernama

"I would like to stress that there are no double standards in following quarantine orders," the Prime Minister said."With me, there are seven cabinet ministers and six deputy ministers who have to undergo quarantine. They are all not excluded from following quarantine orders. They must obey the rules and action can be taken if they disobey."

4. Targeted Enhanced Movement Control Order (TEMCO) will be implemented at red zones while business can resume as usual in other areas

Image via Free Malaysia Today

Muhyiddin also noted that as Prime Minister, he will be paying close attention to COVID-19 developments. He said that the decision to implement a Movement Control Order (MCO) or TEMCO is up to him. "As of today, we are not thinking about implementing a nationwide MCO or a total lockdown," he assured, adding that the move would cripple the social systems and the nation's economy. However, the government will continue to enforce TEMCO in areas with a high number of COVID-19 cases.

5. Schools at red zones will be closed

Image via Nestia

During his speech, the Prime Minister said that schools will be closed at several districts in Sabah including Kota  Kinabalu,  Penampang,  Putatan,  Tawau, Lahad  Datu,  Kunak, and Semporna.Meanwhile, the Ministry of Health (MOH) and the Ministry of Education (MOE) will continue to work closely in case COVID-19 cases occur at schools in the country.

6. The interstate travel ban to and from Sabah is postponed

Image via Daily Sabah

Earlier today, Defence Minister Ismail Sabri announced that the government was set to impose an interstate travel ban to and from Sabah beginning tomorrow, 7 October.However, the premier has decided to push back the policy to 12 October.Muhyiddin said this is to ensure that people are not stranded in Sabah due to the sudden announcement. "The new deadline for travel restrictions between Sabah and the Peninsular, Sarawak, and Labuan will come into effect from 12.01am on 12 October to 25 October 2020," he said.

7. The government is looking into limiting large social gatherings

Image via ABC News

Muhyiddin said, "The government is also looking into proposals to limit public events and gatherings to reduce the likelihood of a COVID-19 outbreak. This includes large conferences, weddings, and public assemblies.""However, the government will get input from the MOH first before implementing it, as well as suggest additional SOPs if necessary."

Keep practising physical distancing and wash your hands often. Watch the latest update on the COVID-19 situation:

Namibia has the highest car-accident death rate in the world, with 45 people killed on the road out of every 100,000 citizens. The country's roads are notoriously dangerous because travellers are not familiar with the landscape and conditions. Drivers run the risk of rolling their vehicles on the African nation's gravel roads.

“While I cannot speak specifically about Malaysia, we do know that as development increases for a nation, road fatalities often increase too,” he said while pointing to China and India as examples.

However, According To A Statement On The WHO Website, The Data For The Research Carried Out May Not Tally With Official Malaysian Numbers Due To The Difference In Methodology Employed By WHO And The Malaysian Census

“Therefore, they are not always the same as official national estimates, although WHO, whenever possible, will provide member states the opportunity review and comment on data and estimates as part of country consultations.”

“Many of the data-sets represent the best estimates of WHO using methodologies for specific indicators that aim for comparability across countries and time."

Netizens Are Mocking Tourism Malaysia And Luis Suarez For This 'Happy CNY' Greeting

Luis Suarez, who plays as a striker for both FC Barcelona and the Uruguay national team, wished Malaysians a happy Chinese New Year (CNY) in a tweet

"Other than celebrating and experiencing different cultures in Malaysia, I'm also learning some basic Malaysian words," Suarez wrote in his tweet. However, while he wished everyone a happy CNY, he attached a photo of him saying "Vanakkam" (hello in Tamil), with Batu Caves as its background.

Other than celebrating and experiencing different cultures in Malaysia, I'm also learning some basic Malaysian words. Happy Chinese New Year everyone. Malaysia is a country that celebrates its diversity. Find out more https://t.co/4eku1bMFXw for info!@TourismMalaysia to video pic.twitter.com/0kpfqVv9nB— Luis Suarez (@LuisSuarez9) February 16, 2018

Twitter users ridiculed Suarez for his greeting, and suggested that another photo of him in Penang would have been more suitable for his CNY tweet

The striker seems to have mixed up the different cultures of the country, and has been mocked and criticised by netizens.People have called the incident embarrassing, and the partnership between Suarez and Tourism Malaysia a waste of money.

Some have also suggested that Suarez should've used another photo of him in Penang for his tweet about CNY.The photo, featuring Suarez in a traditional Chinese costume with Penang's famous Kek Lok Si Temple as its background, seems more appropriate for the CNY greeting. In contrast, Batu Caves is more popular as the centre for a great religious procession during Thaipusam celebrations.

The photo in Suarez's tweet was a still taken from a recent Tourism Malaysia video, where he says hello and welcome in Bahasa Malaysia, Mandarin, and Tamil

According to Tourism Malaysia, Suarez learnt some basic greetings to "help during his visit to Malaysia".However, the 19-second video attracted criticisms from many netizens.

Other than celebrating and experiencing different cultures in Malaysia, @luissuarez9 will also learn some basic Malaysian words. Hopefully this will help during his visit to Malaysia. #malaysiatrulyasia #VisitMalaysia2020 #tourismmalaysia pic.twitter.com/QxMkvbkYGl— Tourism Malaysia (@TourismMalaysia) February 16, 2018

Netizens have chided both Tourism Malaysia and Luis Suarez for poor production quality of the video and the greeting for CNY

Some have expressed disappointment in the Tourism Malaysia team for the quality of their video, while others remained critical of the decision to appoint Suarez as Malaysia's tourism ambassador after his tweet.

Luis suarez ni buat kelakar pula ucap Vanakkam pada tahun baharu cina. Tak sesuai ambil dia ni jadi duta Tourism Malaysia. Mengarut..— Harimau Malaya (@harimaumalaya7) February 16, 2018

Malaysiakini reported that the government spent a total of RM7.5 million for the whole Tourism Malaysia campaign

According to the report, Tourism and Culture Minister Datuk Seri Nazri Abdul Aziz said RM3.1 million was paid for four, 60-second videos that will feature Suarez promoting tourism destinations, culture, food, and traditional sports in Malaysia. Therefore, Suarez was paid up to RM775,000 for each video he is featured in. Furthermore, the Tourism Malaysia advertisements will also be screened at 18 stadiums during La Liga matches through cooperation with FC Barcelona.

Guru Ini Sanggup Tinggal Bersama & Mengajar 33 Orang Pelajarnya Ketika Pandemik. Respect!

Menggunakan waktu cikgu lain, luar dari persekolahan dan balik lewat petang untuk membuat kelas tambahan

Image via Naimah Yusuf

Naimah Yusuf adalah seorang guru Kimia di Sekolah Menengah Teknik Terengganu yang telah memberi inspirasi kepada murid-muridnya dengan dedikasi untuk kerjanya.Guru ini tidak berkira untuk menggunakan rumah, masa dan duit dia sendiri demi pelajaran anak-anak murid kesayangan beliau. Para pelajarnya terkandas di asrama ketika musim pandemik Covid-19, namun begitu beliau tidak mahu mereka ketinggalan ilmu yang sepatut mereka perolehi tidak kira situasi.Beliau bertindak menyewa sebiji rumah untuk menempatkan hampir satu batch pelajar lelaki sekolah beliau yang akan menduduki peperiksaan SPM tahun itu. Manakala pelajar perempuan ditempatkan di rumah beliau selama hampir 2 bulan.Selain itu, beliau memasak untuk mereka makanan hampir setiap hari, dan murid hanya perlu membayar kos dari rumah sewa ke rumah beliau sahaja. Semuanya ditanggung menggunakan duit beliau sendiri tanpa mengeluh.

Salah seorang pelajarnya mencalonkannya untuk Anugerah Guru Inspirasi 2021 McDonald, di mana dia dinobatkan sebagai salah satu pemenang

Pelajarnya itu menjelaskan secara terperinci bagaimana Cikgu Naimah menjadi salah satu sebab kenapa mereka merasa terdorong untuk belajar.Pelajar sekolah berasrama itu menulis, Bismillahirahmanirahim.. guru inspirasi? perlu ke ambil tahu semua ni? Ya, bagi aku sebagai seorang pelajar ianya sangat perlu. kenapa ianya perlu? bagi aku, dengan adanya guru inspirasi ini lah yang boleh memotivasikan diri aku. Kadang-kadang dengan adanya guru macam ini lah yang buat asbab utama aku nak datang sekolah. Yelah segelintir pelajar lain datang sekolah sebab tak sabar nak tengok crush lah pujaan hati lah macam-macam lah.. Aku ni pula tak sabar nak datang sekolah sebab nak jumpa cikgu yang comel dan baik hati ni.. Okay jadi aku mulakan kisah aku bersama cikgu comel ni..

Image via Naimah Yusuf

Aku tak paksa untuk korang baca tapi aku yakin yang korang akan menyesal sekiranya korang tak baca kisah ini.. Pada awal tahun 2019 usia aku 16 tahun dan berada di tingkatan 4, aku ditawarkan untuk masuk ke sekolah teknik, jadi aku pergi sebab memang cita-cita aku nak jadi engineer... macam biasa lah kalau pergi sekolah teknik ni mesti wajib ambil add math, fizik, kimia..Pada masa tu aku ni memang tak suka kimia sebab bagi aku kimia ni memang susah.. aku pun kadang jadi menyesal sebab ambil aliran sains teknikal ni.. tapi nak buat macam mana kan aku tetap kena ambil sebab dah memang cita-cita.. Masa aku tingkatan 4 memang boleh dikatakan setiap kali aku ada kelas kimia mmg wajib aku tidur kalau tak pun aku tak fokus waktu cikgu ajar.. pastu masa awal tahun 2020 cikgu kimia aku masa aku tingkatan 4 dah bersara.. sedih lah jugak tapi nak buat mcm mana setiap pertemuan pasti ada perpisahan kan?..

Walaupun dah berkeluarga, Cikgu Naimah sanggup balik lewat petang semata-mata nak buat kelas tambahan untuk para pelajarnya

Pada permulaan cikgu ni mengajar kelas aku.. dia sedih lah juga sebab kelas aku boleh dikatakan tak terkira jumlah pelajar yang fail kimia setiap kali exam.. tapi pada permulaan aku tengok cikgu ni dia punya semangat mmg lain macam.. Sumpah aku cakap mmg sepanjang 17 tahun aku hidup aku tak pernah jumpa cikgu yang semangat macam ni.. korang nak tahu tak dia punya semangat tu mcm mana?.. Okay macam ni lah korang boleh bayang tak cikgu yang ada keluarga sanggup balik lewat petang semata-mata nak buat kelas tambahan dan satu lagi dia sanggup ambil waktu cikgu lain yang tak dapat hadir ke sekolah semata-mata nak ajar kimia..

Image via Naimah Yusuf

Image via Naimah Yusuf

Pada mulanya aku pon serabut sbb hari-hari dikatakan kelas kimia ada.. Yelah aku kan dah memang tak suka kimia dari zaman tingkatan 4.. Aku ni setiap kali exam tak pernah lulus.. tapi setelah Allah hadirkan cikgu ni untuk ajar kelas aku alhamdulillah hati aku terbuka untuk cuba sayang dengan subjek kimia..Tapi aku perasan bukan aku sorang je yang jadi mcm ni malah kawan-kawan aku yang lain pun dah jarang nak tengok dia tidur dalam kelas bila subjek kimia.. pada masa tu juga kelas aku sama-sama struggle kimia..

Pada awal PKP 2.0, Cikgu Naimah hantar pesanan dalam group kelas dan tawarkan kepada para pelajarnya untuk bermalam di rumah dia sambil belajar

Image via Naimah Yusuf

Masa tu juga lah kelas aku berbincang nak pergi atau tak.. disebabkan semangat cikgu tu kami sekelas pergi bermalam di rumah cikgu ni.. untuk makluman korang semua.. sekolah teknik ni seluruh negeri ada.. Dalam kelas aku pula ada yang asal dari Selangor, Kelantan, Johor, Putrajaya dan lain-lain lagi lah.. Kalau korang nak tahu kami bermalam bukan 2/3/4 malam dekat rumah cikgu tu tapi kami bermalam 1 bulan 2 minggu dekat rumah cikgu tu... bayangkan kelas aku sahaja dah 25 orang dan ada lagi dlm 8 orang kelas lain..Waktu ni cikgu tempatkan pelajar lelaki di rumah sewa dan pelajar perempuan di rumah dia.. bayangkan selama 1 bulan 2 minggu kami disana kos penginapan dan makan dah tak perlu dibayar.. katanya dia sponsor.. cuma kami bayar kos pengangkutan je dari rumah sewa ke rumah cikgu untuk pergi kelas tambahan.. pukul 10 pagi hingga 10 mlm kami akan berada dirumah cikgu untuk belajar..

Sepanjang berada di rumah beliau bukan ilmu Kimia sahaja yang mereka perolehi malah pelbagai ilmu lain juga

Image via Naimah Yusuf

Image via Naimah Yusuf

Image via Naimah Yusuf

Cikgu ni dan family dia mmg semua orang baik.. suami dia selalu nasihatkan kami tentang masa depan setiap kali selepas solat berjemaah.. Di sini juga kami dilatih untuk menjadi imam, bilal dan di sini juga kami diajar tentang adab sembahyang dan adab dalam berkawan oleh suami beliau..Di rumah cikgu ini juga kami diajar berdikari dan bekerjasama dalam sesuatu perkara.. Contohnya, setelah waktu makan tiba kami semua bekerjasama untuk menyiapkan hidangan.. Disinilah bermula ilmu masakan kami di terapkan.. Disinilah kami belajar untuk memotong sayur, ayam, daging dan lain-lain.. Walaupun cikgu ini mempunyai keluarga tapi beliau tetap gigih dalam melakasanakan tanggungjawabnya dalam mendidik pelajarnya.. Peristiwa ini memberi saya inspirasi kerana dengan hadirnya cikgu ini beliau telah membuatkan hubungan kami sekelas menjadi makin rapat dan menyayangi kawan yang lain antara satu sama lain..Tambahan pula dengan peristiwa ini juga membuatkan hubungan keluarga aku dan keluarga sahabatku yang lain menjadi rapat.. Alhamdulillah dengan semangat dalam tunjuk ajar cikgu ini kelas kami dapat membuktikan bahawa kimia ini menyeronokkan sehingga kelas kami berjaya mengurangkan gred G dan memperbanyakkan gred C ke atas dalam TRIAL SPM 2020..Alhamdulillah dengan adanya slogan kiia itu mudah InsyaAllah A+ kami berjaya mengharungi ujian sehingga berjaya menduduki peperiksaan kimia SPM 2020 dengan tenang.. Insyaallah doakan result kami semua cemerlang.. saya cukup terinspirasi dengan cikgu ini sehinggakan saya ingin menjadikan cita-cita saya sebagai guru teknikal.. kenapa saya ingin menjadi guru? kerana saya ingin memberi manfaat kepada orang lain mcm cikgu saya ini buat.. InsyaAllah..

Jailed Najib Sues Govt & Prisons Dept After His Wish To Attend Parliament Rejected

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

Najib Razak, who is serving time for his crimes, has sued the government, the Minister of Home Affairs (MOHA), and the Prisons Department after he was not allowed to attend the Dewan Rakyat

According to his lawyer, Tan Sri Muhammad Shafee Abdullah, the 69-year-old convicted criminal filed an application at 1pm yesterday, 5 October, for leave to initiate a judicial review of the Prisons Department's decision to turn down his request to attend the ongoing Dewan Rakyat proceedings, reported The Star.Najib — whose guilty verdict and 12-year jail sentence on charges related to the multi-billion dollar graft scandal 1MDB was upheld by the Federal Court — claims he has been "adversely affected" by not being allowed access to the parliament, his political officers and aides, and his constituents in Pekan.He is seeking an order to quash the decision of the Commissioner General of Prisons to not allow him access to his officers/aides for the purposes of parliamentary, legislative, and constituent work.

According to Najib, he has a constitutional obligation to discharge his duties effectively as a member of parliament (MP) for his constituents

He claims that the denial of that right in refusing him the ability to administer his constituency — where he has been the MP since 1976 — is a denial of the well-being of the constituency of Pekan itself.The Kuala Lumpur High Court will hear the matter on 12 October.

The reason why Najib, despite being jailed, is insisting on the privileges accorded to an MP is that his MP status has yet to be voided

Under Article 48 of the Federal Constitution, an individual can be disqualified as an MP if convicted of an offence, sentenced to more than a year in jail, and fined more than RM2,000.While Najib has been sentenced to 12 years in jail and fined RM210 million for his corruption crimes, he remains the Pekan MP because he filed a petition for a royal pardon.The disqualification can take effect only upon the petition being disposed of, whenever that is.


British Guy Sums Up Why He's Hesitant To Accept Favours From People Of Other Nationalities

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

Curiosity struck when a Malaysian man questioned why people in the UK are skeptical about accepting favours from others

A Malaysian TikTok user got curious and asked the question in a 25-second video: "Why is it that when someone offers to do something nice for you, you don't answer with 'Yes', (instead) you say 'Are you sure?'"He also gave an example of a situation where he reenacts a conversation with a friend as if he were at a shop and gave them a call to see if they wanted anything."Oh, do you mind just grabbing me a loaf of bread, but if you can't, that's fine because I was going to the shops anyways," he mimicked an imaginary reply.The TikToker found it puzzling, as they could have just said 'Yes' to the offer.

  @kurtious I'm always tempted to say 'No' when people question my niceness  #uk  original sound - Kurtious

In response, a British guy stitched his video and explained why

"I just think we feel guilty and we are in no position to ask for favours, due to the fact that we colonised most of the world," the British TikToker said in the 31-second video.He then responded to the situation that was mentioned in the Malaysian man's video."Like, yeah, you could grab me a loaf of bread. That would be amazing, but I do understand if not, because we did strip your country's lands of their natural resources to expand our empire," he said.He also joked with the same deadpan expression that he did not do any of the colonising himself, but it was his great-grandad.

  @jackknightley Ask us for favours instead #fyp #british #britishempire   original sound - Jackowacko

The response has since garnered many reactions from Malaysian netizens

One TikTok user asked England to compensate by giving Malaysians a 50% discount on concerts and flight tickets to the UK.

Another user blamed the British as the reason they have to learn history in school and demanded an apology.

Meanwhile, some users applauded him for being aware of what his ancestors did in the past.
