Gambar Zoom Tak Nampak Apa-Apa? Ikuti 10 Tips Ini Untuk Ambil Gambar 'Wow' Guna Smartphone

Bergambar sekarang tak susah macam dulu

Kalau dulu lepas ambil gambar je kena tunggu pergi cuci gambar dekat kedai baru la dapat tengok gambar tu cantik ke tak. Saiz kamera pun jangan cakaplah, besar-besar semua. Nak simpan punyalah susah. Silap hari bulan siap terjatuh lagi!

Perkembangan dunia telefon pintar menyebabkan kamera jenis DSLR bukan lagi medium utama untuk ambil gambar cantik. Korang serbu la mana-mana instagram yang gambar cantik-cantik tu, admin confirm majoriti gambar yang dimuat naik adalah dari smartphone.Salah satu sebab mengapa telefon pintar menjadi popular ialah lebih mudah untuk berkongsi gambar dengan rakan-rakan. Lepas shot, boleh terus upload ke Facebook, Twitter, Instagram dan sebagainya.

So, kali ni admin nak share dengan korang tips macam mana nak ambil gambar cun dengan smartphone:

1. Bersihkan lens

Okay guys, benda ni nampak remeh tapi sebenarnya penting! Basically smartphone memang tak ada lens cap macam kamera biasa atau DSLR. Jadi sebelum korang ambil gambar, elok la rajin-rajinkan tangan tu lap lens kamera dengan kain bersih dulu. Kain bersih ya! Kalau tak lap admin boleh agak gambar korang akan blur disebabkan kotoran minyak dan kesan cap jari korang.

2. Jangan zoom

Ni pantang larang penting waktu ambil gambar guna smartphone. Kalau kamera fon korang jenis ada satu kamera je, elakkan la guna digital zoom. Maaf terpaksa jujur, serius buruk gambar kalau guna digital zoom, lainlah smartphone korang tu ada banyak kamera. Tips! Kalau korang nak besarkan subjek dalam gambar, lebih baik crop guna photoshop atau mana-mana image editing applications.

3. No Flash, please!

Canggih betul kan smartphone ada flash. Tapi korang jangan la seronok sangat kalau smartphone korang ada flash sebab belum tentu boleh diharap untuk dapatkan gambar cantik. Sebenarnya lebih banyak mencacatkan dari mencantikkan tau Opsss. Tak percaya korang cuba la guna. Nanti ada gambar korang siap ada pakej mata merah-merah dan muka berminyak.Melainkan korang tahu macam mana nak ‘diffuse’ atau ‘bounce’ cahaya daripada flash. Admin sarankan korang cuba gunakan night mode. Tapi kena berhati-hati sebab night mode berfungsi menurunkan shutter speed dan gambar mudah blur.

4. Gegaran

Again, smartphone tak macam kamera atau DSLR, telefon pintar biasanya tak ada stabilizer kecuali yang high end model. So, normally gambar sangat mudah blur sebab gegaran terutamanya gambar yang diambil pada waktu malam kerana kelajuan shutter secara automatik akan dikurangkan untuk membolehkan banyak cahaya masuk supaya gambar tak underexposed.

5. Settings

Kalau bab settings ni macam mana pun kena belajar slow-slow. Admin sarankan korang cuba mahirkan dengan settings kamera pada smartphone korang. Sesetengah model membolehkan korang mengawal fungsi tertentu secara manual seperti white balance dan exposure.

6. Apps

Image via vox-cdn.com

Ini bonus! Sebenarnya ada banyak apps yang boleh digunakan untuk menggantikan default apps pada smartphone. Tapi korang tak perlu la nak install semua, cari yang sesuai ikut gaya fotografi korang je.Contoh Apps: Split Pic, Multi Lens, Big Lens, Manga Camera, Fast Camera, dan Fish Eye.

7. Aksesori tambahan

Image via fstoppers.com

Aksesori tambahan boleh digunakan untuk mengatasi limitasi yang ada pada telefon pintar. Contohnya korang boleh beli lens tambahan untuk mendapatkan focal length yang berbeza.

8. Segalanya komposisi

Image via j-k.lt

Komposisi masih lagi penting walau canggih mana pun smartphone yang korang pakai. Cuba tengok contoh-contoh yang ada di internet dan tiru komposisi yang diorang guna. Yup, cara terbaik untuk mahir komposisi ialah dengan meniru.

ta9. Edit boleh, tapi jangan over!

Image via pinimg.com

Sangat mudah nak edit gambar dengan smartphone. Kalau dulu kena transfer gambar dari kamera dan edit dalam komputer, sekarang lepas snap boleh terus apply efek-efek atau filter yang ada.Kebanyakan apps macam Instagram membolehkan pengguna memberikan efek yang diingini dengan hanya satu langkah. Bagi korang yang mahir, apps seperti Snapseed dan Adobe Lightroom menjadi pilihan.Satu je nak pesan bila buat editing kat smartphone, JANGAN OVER. Boleh seksa jiwa kami yang melihat. Buat ala kadar, sesedap rasa. Boleh?

10. Huawei bakal bongkar rahsia gambar ‘Wow’ pada 26 Mac 2019 ini!

Hartal Group Says Burnt Out Doctors Are Quitting With 24-Hour Notices

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

Contract doctors are quitting with 24 hours' notice due to exhaustion in battling the COVID-19 pandemic and frustration with fighting for fairer employment terms, said the Hartal Doktor Kontrak group

The social media campaign organiser called on the government on 1 July to give contract junior doctors permanent placements in the Ministry of Health (MOH), lest they will go on a nationwide strike on 26 July.Contract medical officers are protesting their conditional positions because of lower pay and fewer career opportunities compared to their permanent counterparts, despite doing the same amount of work.

However, even before the strike, the group said doctors are leaving public service, as burnout from handling the unending battle against COVID-19 becomes the final straw

"Doctors are resigning with 24 hours' notice. Simply too tired and can't take it anymore," stated a post on Hartal Doktor Kontrak's Twitter account on Sunday, 18 July.Attached was a photo of an emergency department roster on WhatsApp that showed a staff member had resigned. However, no information on the hospital was provided.A day after that, the group retweeted @mustaphakamal93's tweet, showing a photo of a resignation letter by a Grade UD41 contract medical officer from Tengku Ampuan Rahimah Hospital (HTAR) in Klang."Received news that many friends are not just taking emergency leave, they are resigning. It's clear they are burnt out and disappointed with the MOH," said Dr Mustapha Kamal, a medical officer and spokesperson for Hartal Doktor Kontrak.The 24-hour notice, dated 19 July, stated the reasons for resignation as being a contract medical officer, not being able to get a permanent post, not qualified to do their Masters, and an unclear future.Mustapha told SAYS that the letter belonged to his friend, who is leaving for the private sector after becoming too worked up with the situation.Hartal Doktor Kontrak then shared another resignation letter of a Grade UD41 contract medical officer on Twitter on the same day that stated they were also quitting to look for job opportunities in the private sector and further their studies.

Image via @HKontrak (Twitter)

On 30 June, Health Minister Dr Adham Baba had assured the contract doctors' demands will be discussed at a Cabinet meeting

However, he did not specify a date.Meanwhile, when contacted by Free Malaysia Today, an MOH spokesperson said the issue is still under purview of their human resources division and they will only provide feedback if there are any.

Unless their employment issue is addressed by the government, contract medical officers are planning a nationwide strike on 26 July:

                Here's Why Over 15,000 Malaysian Doctors Plan To Go On Strike On 26 July

The Hartal Doktor Kontrak group told SAYS, "This is our future and only we can change this. It is now or never."

Censorship Board Orders Local TV Channels Not To Display Underwear On Home Shopping Shows

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

The Film Censorship Board of Malaysia (LPF) has issued letters to instruct two local broadcasters to stop displaying male and female undergarments on their home shopping networks

In a report published by Malay Mail today, 10 September, it is learnt that the board — that is under the Ministry of Home Affairs' (MOHA) purview — finds the display of innerwear during the shows indecent and offensive even though they were not worn by models.Hence, LPF said that the television broadcasters have violated its guidelines and code of conduct."The ministry is of the view that although the advertisement do not show undergarments worn live by a model and do not involve any indecent visual displays, advertising 'undergarments' will still offend the community, especially those related to race, religion, gender, and age," read the letter dated 3 September."Furthermore, the requirement to preserve manners, decency, and the sensitivities of a multi-ethnic and multi-religious society in Malaysia is of utmost importance.""Therefore, this ministry is of the view that the aforementioned content advertising innerwear is inappropriate to be shown for general viewing... and all broadcasts similar like this should be discontinued immediately."

A check by SAYS at two of the most popular local home shopping networks found that male briefs and trunks, as well as female underpants and body shapers, are frequent products sold on air

The shows are conducted in both Bahasa Melayu and Chinese. Some were aired as far back as March 2019, while others were aired as recently as June 2021.In the shows, the hosts and models do not put on the products, except for corsets and body shapers but they are worn under or above their outfits.The products are placed on racks, mannequins, and sometimes, the hosts hold them up to demonstrate the stretchiness or to showcase their sizes.

In another letter dated 24 August, the censorship board dismissed the appeal filed by one of the broadcasters

LPF said although it acknowledged the views put forward by content regulators the Communications and Multimedia Content Forum (CMCF) and Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC), it insisted that such content should not be aired.MCMC, much like LPF, is a government department that has the authority to take down any content violating the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998, but the power that the department has mostly revolves around online platforms.LPF is empowered by the Film Censorship Act 2002."Taking into account the interests of all parties in considering this appeal, LPF still sticks by the Film Censorship Guidelines 2010 (GPPF 2010) Article 1 of Section III (regarding) film advertisements, which states that film advertisements or any form of the message presented which promotes a branded organisation, product, or service must be ethical," the letter read.The letter also mentioned that the display of undergarments is offensive and should be avoided to take care of the sensitivities of a multi-religious and multi-cultural audience.

Speaking to the Malay Mail, LPF said one of the reasons behind its directive is because the shows are easily accessible by the entire household, including children, as they are broadcasted on television

It also reiterated the regulations within GPPF 2010, empowered by the Film Censorship Act 2002, and stated that the content that the broadcasters air must maintain good manners and decency while balancing the sensitivities of a diverse society."Both television stations involved are aware of all the conditions that have to be adhered to under the Film Censorship Act 2002 Exemption Order issued by the Ministry of Home Affairs," it told Malay Mail.LPF added that the companies have since complied with the directive and removed the segments."But, if this content is shown on other online platforms, it is no longer subjected to the Film Censorship Act 2002," it continued.

Saya suka belajar secara dalam talian, tetapi kadang-kadang video jadi sekat-sekat dan kita terlepas apa yang guru sampaikan. Beza dengan DidikTV ni sebab DidikTV ni semua borang boleh tengok. Kualiti visual dan video pun sangat okay. Jadi, membantu sangat untuk bagi gambaran lebih jelas mengenai sesuatu silibus,” katanya.Tambah Intan Syuhada, slot yang paling disukainya di DidikTV ialah Kimia Kertas 3 oleh Cikgu Thung Su Ling kerana info yang disampaikan jelas dan mudah difahami.

The video that went viral is true. At the time, I was so angry after finding out that she had another man. She also had cheated on me twice with two different men," he claimed."I could not contain my anger when I found out she had been cheating behind me without my knowledge. At the time, I could not control myself, and I hit her," he added.The entrepreneur went on to say that he has learned his lesson and apologised for his mistake.

No Jail Time For Malaysian Rapist Who Married His 14-Year-Old Victim

Last year, Ahmad Syukri Yusuf was charged with two counts of statutory rape. He was alleged to have raped a 14-year-old girl twice at a village in Petra Jaya, Kuching.

Image via The Borneo Post

According to a Borneo Post Online report dated 4 November 2015, the accused committed the first offence sometime in the middle of October and the second on 16 October. Under Section 376(1) of the Penal Code, anyone convicted of statutory rape (sexual intercourse with individuals aged 15 and below, regardless of consent) faces a maximum of 30 years' jail and whipping.

However, Ahmad Syukri seems to have evaded conviction - inclusive of impending jail time and whipping - after marrying his underaged victim under Islamic law

According to prosecutor Ahmad Fariz Abdul Hamid, the court ruled that there was no need to continue court proceedings after Ahmad Syukri submitted a marriage certificate last week. The girl had also withdrawn her complaint.

While the minimum age for marriage is 18 under Malaysia's civil laws, Muslim girls under 16 are allowed to get married with consent from a Syariah court. Unfortunately, many take advantage of the system at the cost of the girls' welfare.

Earlier this year, senior judicial director of the Shariah Judiciary Department Mohd Nadzri Abd Rahman acknowledged that there have been cases where fathers marry off their underaged daughters to cover up incestuous rape or to pay off their debts. Besides suggesting that a separate agency be set up to carefully scrutinise applications, Nadzri also revealed that 10,240 child marriage applications have been made from 2005 to 2015, with the highest applications coming from Sarawak (2,064), Kelantan (1,929) and Terengganu (924).

A KL-based women's rights group also pointed out that it is very common for rapists to marry their underaged victims to cover up their crime, adding that, "Her marriage is basically an extension to rape."

"There is usually a high risk in this kind of cases that these girls will be subject to a lifetime of sexual abuse," said Women's Aid Organisation spokeswoman Tan Heang Lee.Moreover, accused rapists should be prevented from marrying their victims, said Ann Teo, vice-president of the Kuching-based Sarawak Women for Women Society. "It sends a message a person will be freed from his charge if he enters into this kind of marriage of convenience with the girl," she added.

Do you think marriage is a justifiable reason to dismiss underage rape cases? Let us know in the comments below!

Earlier this year, a PAS MP suggested that banning child marriages will create "lustful girls" who crave casual sex:

                PAS MP Says "Lustful Girls" Would Seek Casual Sex If Child Marriages Are Banned

According to media reports, the Syariah Court received more than 1,000 applications for child marriages in 2015.

Teenage Boy Who Posed As Women Offering Sex Online Conned RM9,700 Out Of 16 Men

On Monday, 28 January, a 19-year-old in Singapore pleaded guilty to five counts of cheating men into giving him money by posing as female sex workers online

According to The Star, the Temasek Polytechnic student initially set up an account on online classified advertisements website Locanto.com in December 2016 "to meet potential romantic interests."

However, Lee was inspired after reading the website's advisory cautioning users against falling for scams that claimed to offer the sale of pornographic videos and sexual services

Court documents showed that he set up two accounts under the usernames jessss98 and Liyiingxxxx to advertise that "she" was looking for "friends with benefits" and expected to be paid.When more than 10 men responded to his ads, the teenager directed them to chat with him, under his female pseudonyms 'Jess' or 'Alicia', on WeChat.

By promising his victims pornographic videos or sex, the men agreed to transfer between RM450 (SGD150) and RM600 (SGD200) to Lee's bank account as an advance payment

"In some instances, the accused would send the victims the fake pornographic videos and pass them off as being videos of the fictitious Jess or Alicia," said Deputy Public Prosecutor Michelle Tay in court.

Between June 2017 and November 2017, Lee collected RM9,700 (SGD3,200) from 16 men.He muted and deleted the WeChat conversations from his phone immediately after receiving the money.

After a victim reported Lee's account, the Singaporean police began investigating him and froze his bank account in December 2017

He tried to destroy evidence from his phone after being unable to withdraw money from an automated teller machine.The Deputy Public Prosecutor revealed that Lee returned the money to the men and admitted that he cheated them because he "wanted this lifestyle but could not afford it."District Judge May Mesenas called for a probation suitability report and adjourned  the 19-year-old's sentencing to next month, Channel NewsAsia reported.

Former Airforce Major Zaidi Ahmad's Fight For Justice Is Far From Over

    06 Feb — 06:17 PM

The Last We Heard From Former Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) Pilot Zaidi Ahmad, He Had Been Dismissed From The Air Force And Was Working As A Sales Agent

                You'd Think After They Fired Major Zaidi, He'd Give Up On Malaysia

He lost his job, but won the heart of the nation.

Though Zaidi Has Accepted His Fate, His Tussle With The Law And The RMAF Is Far For Over

    06 Feb — 06:17 PM

Before The Court-Martial Conviction, Zaidi Filed For A Judicial Review On 11 December 2014 To Seek The High Court's Decision To Dissolve The Military Panel And To Void Their Verdict

Zaidi, 47, had filed for judicial review on December 11 last year to seek the High Court's declaration that the convening authority's decision is illegal and void, besides an order to compel it to dissolve the panel.

        themalaymailonline.com

On February 5, he will make a court appearance at the Kuala Lumpur High Court for a judicial review application filed earlier challenging the military's convening authority which had refused to dissolve the panel that tried him.

Zaidi Filed The Application Claiming That The Trial Was Unfair As Military Court Presiding Officer Colonel Saadon Hasnan Showed Element Of Biasness

In the application, Zaidi claimed that he was not given a fair trial as there was an element of bias on the comment made by Military Court Presiding Officer Colonel Saadon Hasnan on the Malaysiakini web portal. He claimed that Saadon had commented on the article published by the portal, titled “Lawyer: The Only Thing Major Zaidi Is Guilty of Is Being Brave” when the trial was ongoing.

        freemalaysiatoday.com

Using a Facebook account under the name Saadon Tson, Col Saadon had allegedly made a comment in in response to an article "Peguam: Kesalahan Mejar Zaidi hanya kerana berani" (Lawyer: Major Zaidi charged for being courageous) published in Malaysiakini in its Bahasa Malaysia section on October 20, 2014. The user named Saadon Tson had said: "klu tak nak jd tentera duk kampung motong getah je" (If you don't want to be in the military, then stay in the village and tap rubber).

Today, RMAF Filed A Preliminary Objection Against Zaidi's Application, Saying That It Was Purely Theoretical And Has No Real Basis

The Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) convening authority has filed a preliminary objection at the High Court here yesterday against former RMAF officer Major Zaidi Ahmad’s application for leave for a judicial review concerning the decision to proceed his trial in Military Court.

        freemalaysiatoday.com

According to senior federal counsel Shamsul Bolhassan, the judicial review bid was academic as the disputed military court panel had already found Zaidi guilty, arguing that the latter should directly challenge the sacking instead of seeking the panel's dissolution.

Zaidi's Counsel Mohamed Hanipa Maidin Refuted The RMAF, Saying That Even If The Bid Was Academic, The Matter Is A Public Interest Issue

Image via mkini.net

Zaidi's counsel Mohamed Hanipa Maidin said he had submitted that even if his client's bid was academic, the court still have power to hear the matter due to public interest.

        nst.com.my

Hanipa in reply to Shamsul said his client's judicial review application was not academic because it was filed soon after the court martial's convening authority refused to dissolve the bench hearing Zaidi's case."Unfortunately, the High Court did not fix a date to hear the application before Zaidi was dismissed from the air force," he said.Hanipa said the preliminary objection should be dismissed as the matter involved a public interest issue.

        themalaysianinsider.com

    06 Feb — 06:17 PM

Furthermore, Hanipa Says The Decision To Sack Zaidi Is Still Unofficial As They Have Yet To Receive It In Black And White

"As far as we are concerned, the decision has not been confirmed because we didn't receive in writing," he said. Hanipa also said his client has to wait for the letter confirming the sacking before he can file for another judicial review of the court martial's sentence.

        themalaymailonline.com

"Until we receive a letter from the convening authority, we cannot file a judicial review to challenge his dismissal order. We have 90 days from the day we receive the letter to file a judicial review," he added.Zaidi, who  is father of four, told reporters that the Air Force's chief had confirmed his dismissal on Jan 27 but he has yet to receive any letter on it."I have not  received a letter if I can still use my rank," he said, adding that he is still entitled for pension and gratuity but did not know the exact amount.

        thestar.com.my

    06 Feb — 06:17 PM

The High Court Will Make The Decision On Whether To Approve Zaidi's Judicial Review On 16 February 2015

The High Court said today it will now decide on February 16 whether to strike out Zaidi’s judicial review bid on claims that the panel that sacked him from the air force was biased.

They'll even know who threw that piece of rubbish on the floor!

Each drone will be equipped with a camera interface capable of live-streaming videos back to the police base. Khalid said that the plan is also to equip the drones with “biometric” scanners that will enable them to immediately identify those recorded on camera.“We will start using it for managing rallies, to record the activities of those who are involved in rallies. This feature can also be installed in public and traffic close circuit cameras and we can trace the crooks we seek with it," he said.He added that the drones will also be used to patrol neighbourhoods and housing areas.

"Currently, our officers are undergoing training to operate the machine, while standard operating procedures for the technology utilisation are being worked on," Khalid explained.

        nst.com.my

The unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) will be making an appearance tentatively by the end of this year once matters regarding it's licensing are finalised

“We will start with maybe three or four small drones because it is not so costly; it will be deployed in Klang Valley first before year-end,” Khalid told reporters.

        themalaysianinsider.com

When asked if usage of the drones would bring about issues regarding privacy intrusion, this is what he had to say:

How are we going to protect our privacy then?
Image via DroneWatch

“Would that bring about privacy intrusion? Well, that is why we will do a lot of training first. We have to licence it, look into laws, preventive standard operational procedures for that,” he said, adding that they are currently in the process of preparing these.

        themalaymailonline.com

Khalid was also asked if the drones will used during the planned Bersih 4.0 rally on 29 Aug in which he quipped, "Maybe"

Malaysia is not the first country to utilise "spy-cams" on its citizens. In fact, countries such as India, UK and America are already using drones to survey their people.

On 7 May, police in India put aside their batons in favor of an overhead solution to angry and unruly crowds: pepper-spraying drones. It has been used by the Lucknow police whenever there are violent protests or mob attacks. Aren't we lucky there aren't going to be any pepper sprays on out drones!

        cnn.com

In the US on the other hand, drones have been so widely used in curbing crimes and in searh-and-rescue missions that even private actors are also seeking to use the technology for personal and commercial use.

Apart from security surveillance, drones can also be used to deliver pizza. Check out how this Bombay pizza chain has put a twist on pizza deliveries:

This Mat Rempit Finally Met The Kind Doctor Who Treated Him After A Road Accident

When a young man got into an accident recently, he didn't expect for people to come to his aid because he's a mat rempit

Faizal Hasbullah Alimin was riding on a motorcycle along the Kuala Lumpur-Karak Expressway near Genting Sempah with his cousin Muhammad Aizuddin Mohd Sharif when the accident happened last week at about 11.35am. They were heading towards Bentong from Hulu Langat when Faizal's motorcycle suddenly malfunctioned and caused the 20-year-old to fall and land in the middle of the road while the motorcycle skidded and crashed into a road divider.  Just when Faizal thought that most people would mind their own business, a few Good Samaritans appeared and came to offer him help."In my pain, I saw two vehicles stopped at the side of the road to help me. One of them immediately helped to direct traffic while another two people helped me with my injuries," he recalled. According to Faizal, there were two other people whom he described as "Chinese women" and he suspected that one of them is a doctor.

A woman meticulously tended to his injuries and cleaned his wounds while they waited for the ambulance to arrive

She took the trouble to bring out her medical equipment and checked Faizal's pulse and breathing, then proceeded to correct the position of his twisted and broken arm.Faizal's cousin, Muhammad Aizuddin shared the incident on social media, urging his cousin to find the doctor when he is well again."Although she knew that we're mat rempits, she still stopped to help us because she's a doctor," he said. "I told her that she should go ahead and be where she needed to. But instead, she insisted that she will stay until the ambulance arrived." He added that she was also the one who told him to get some sweets and give them to Faizal so that his cousin would not suffer from low sugar level.

"Thank you for your willingness in helping me even when there are no blood ties between us and we're of a different race."

Following the accident, Faizal was rushed to Hospital Bentong before he was transferred to Hospital Kuala Lumpur (HKL) the next day. "People usually think of motorcyclists as mat rempits, but when I saw the woman's determination in helping me, I don't see any hints of prejudice.""If I can, I want to meet the doctor and say thank you to her," he told Harian Metro.

A few days have passed since that fateful incident when suddenly a stranger came to the hospital to look for Faizal. It was the doctor who came to visit.

It was learned that the doctor, identified as Dr Koh Siew Ling who hails from Sandakan, Sabah, came to know about Faizal and went to visit him at Hospital Kuala Lumpur after she read the viral post by Muhammad Aizuddin on the Internet.  "I was surprised when a lady suddenly approached me. But as she came closer I realised that she was the doctor who helped me after my accident," Faizal said. During her visit to the hospital, Koh left Faizal some advice to minimise his movements and to take care of his diet. She also reminded him to stop smoking. Faizal was very touched by how caring Koh is, and he didn't expect them to meet again. "Alhamdulillah my wish has been fulfilled. Whatever that happened to me proves that there are many good people out there. Perhaps there is a silver lining that my story has gone viral on social media," he said.

Koh said that the experience was definitely not something that she had anticipated, but she is extremely humbled that many people have been inspired by her simple act of kindness

"Never did I expect that a small act of kindness would generate such publicity in the media. I am humbled and grateful for the compliments shown by everyone."  "I would have done it again without hesitation if similar situations come by. Lastly, I wish Faizal a speedy recovery and I hope that this incident can add a little bit more kindness and helpfulness in every one of us to make this world a better one to live in," Koh wrote on her Facebook page, as reported by NST Online.

Getting Married Soon? Know These Things Before Buying Major Appliances For Your Dream Home

Getting married and finally moving to your own place is one of life's simplest yet greatest adventures you could have!

Image via Tumblr

But with the excitement also comes the anxiety of planning for a new home. Take note of these 6 things before you start spending:

1. Plan your shopping list to avoid impulse buys

Image via The Odyssey Online

Let's be real; we've all bought something we didn't need just because it looked pretty or it seemed nifty. But if you're going to be shopping for major appliances that will stay with you for years, you'd definitely want to make sure you're making a conscious informed choice, and not an impulse decision that you're going to regret a few months down the road. Use these questions as a guide to plan your shopping list: 1. What items do I really need? 2. What's my budget? 3. What features are a must-have for me? (For example, eco mode, smart features, mobility, energy saving) 4. Where will I place them in the house?

2. Understand that cheap isn't always better

Image via CampusCult

Some couples may opt to not buy certain appliances in order to save money. With the rise of launderettes recently, for example, many are starting to forgo washing machines. Before you drop a major appliance for a perceived cheaper alternative, think about the real costs that are actually involved: Having to step out of the house, the hours it takes to wash and dry your clothes when you could be doing other things, and whether or not the washing machines are hygienic and well-maintained. In the long run, is it worth it?

3. Stalk your parents’ / future in-laws’ / friends’ appliances

Image via WiffleGIF

The best way to know what works well and what doesn't is to check out the range of appliances already owned by the people around you. Get to know their most and least favourite things about the items they own, and if possible, ask if you can give their appliances a try!Seeing appliances that have been used for a while can also give you a good indication of how well the items handle wear and tear.

4. Keep up on the latest features

Image via Hunters Doing Research

With technology advancing at the speed of light these days, you're gonna have to do your research to know what new and improved features would be helpful for you.For example, did you know the Samsung POWERbot Vacuum Cleaner comes with an on-board camera to accurately map out the areas to vacuum in your home, significantly reducing the amount of blind spots? Then there's the Samsung AddWash™ Washing Machine, a revolutionary front-loading washing machine that lets you add any forgotten piece of laundry during the cycle itself. Talk about convenience!

5. Think about the nitty gritty details

Image via okupas.blogspot.my

Let's be real: size matters. Make sure to measure the spaces meant for your appliances before buying anything! Besides the standard height, width and depth measurements, remember to take note of the spaces surrounding the appliances too so that there's enough space to open and close the doors when needed. Some product specifications may not include the handles or knobs, so if you're particular about wanting to keep your appliances aligned with your cabinets, it helps to measure the handles and knobs as well. When planning the space for a fridge, add an extra 2cm, that extra room at the back is needed for ventilation and helps to keep the motor running smoothly.

6. Look out for seasonal deals to score great savings

Image via The Gloss

No matter what, you're going to have to buy these appliances anyway, so you might as well time your shopping with Malaysia's ever-present sale seasons, especially during festive periods and year-ends!

Awal bulan ini, seorang gadis berusia 17 tahun diejek oleh warga Singapura di TikTok selepas dia menyiarkan videonya membeli beg daripada jenama Singapura Charles & Keith (C&K) dan menyifatkannya sebagai "beg mewah pertamanya"

Dalam video itu, remaja berkenaan mengucapkan terima kasih kepada bapanya kerana menghadiahkan beg mewah itu.Dia juga berkongsi rasa teruja dan dilihat gembira membuka kotak dan memodelkan Beg Tote Double Handle hitam, yang berharga SGD79.90 di laman web Charles & Keith Singapura iaitu RM299.90 di laman web Malaysia. Ia adalah beg termahal yang dimilikinya.Walau bagaimanapun, kegembiraannya tidak dirasai dengan orang lain yang mengejek remaja itu kerana menganggap ia adalah jenama mewah. Mereka menyifatkan bahawa dia jahil dan sepatutnya tahu lebih baik daripada memikirkan sesuatu yang sangat murah.Lihat video itu di bawah:

  @zohtaco thank you dad   Glitch - Just audios

Kongsi video susulan, di mana dia menangani komen negatif yang diterimanya

Tidak seperti video pertamanya yang penuh kegembiraan, video susulannya agak sedikit beremosi kerana dia berkongsi tentang kesulitan kewangan keluarganya dan betapa dia bersyukur menerima hadiah seperti itu daripada bapanya yang bekerja keras."Wang adalah topik yang paling membuatkan saya tidak selesa untuk bercakap kerana ketika membesar, saya tidak mempunyai banyak," katanya sambil menangis."Itu adalah satu kemewahan kepada kami apabila kami mula-mula berpindah ke Singapura. Setiap kali kami melalui kedai itu, ibu bapa saya hanya akan berkata 'lain kali' tetapi kali seterusnya tidak akan datang," ujarnya.Dia juga membidas salah satu komen negatif dengan menyatakan bagaimana kekayaan menjadikan seseorang itu 'jahil'."Bagi anda, beg SGD80 mungkin bukan satu kemewahan, tetapi bagi saya dan keluarga saya ia adalah banyak. Dan saya sangat bersyukur kerana ayah saya dapat membelikannya untuk saya""Saya tidak percaya saya dibenci kerana beg yang saya sangat teruja untuk memilikinya." katanya.Lihat video sambungan di bawah:

Terkejut terima maklum balas daripada pengasas Charles & Keith sendiri

Menurut jurucakap syarikat itu, pengasas tersebut telah menjemput Zoe dan bapanya keluar untuk makan tengah hari yang akan diikuti dengan lawatan ke ibu pejabat jenama itu."Hati kami benar-benar tertuju kepada Zoe, kami sangat kagum dengannya dan cara dia mengendalikan situasi itu, ia menunjukkan kebijaksanaan jauh melebihi usianya, dan nilai yang sangat bermakna buat kami. "Pengasas kami percaya bahawa produk kami harus mencetuskan kegembiraan, memperkasakan pencinta fesyen, dan memberi mereka keyakinan, sesuatu yang kami percaya dia mempersembahkan dengan begitu yakin dalam videonya," The Straits Times memetik jurucakap itu sebagai berkata.Gadis itu berkongsi di Instagramnya, bahawa dia dan bapanya diberi peluang untuk melawat sendiri ibu pejabat Charles & Keith dan dapat melihat lebih lanjut tentang perkara apa yang berlaku di sebalik tabir.

Here’s How To Not Miss Out On Your Favourite Posts After Instagram’s Big Change

Earlier this month, Instagram confirmed that it would be adapting to Facebook's algorithm of presenting posts that you would be interested in instead of having it arranged chronologically

Image via Express

The algorithm will sort photos based on "the likelihood you'll be interested in the content, your relationship with the person posting, and the timeliness of the post".

The move comes after Instagram claimed that users would miss out on 70% of content that appear on their feeds

Image via SEO Premier

“On average, people miss about 70 percent of the posts in their Instagram feed. What this is about is making sure that the 30 percent you see is the best 30 percent possible.” Kevin Systrom, co-founder and chief executive of Instagram, said in an interview with the New York Times.

So, if you don't want to miss out on photos from your favourite accounts  - here's what you can do:

Go to an Instagram page and click on the three dots in the top right-hand corner of the screen. Select “Turn on Post Notifications”.

Image via SAYS

PS: Follow SAYS here for behind the scenes updates from the team!

That's about it! You could also ask your peers to do the same for them to stay up to date with your latest posts.

Image via Scoop Empire

Some users are actively encouraging their Instagram followers to turn on notifications, with social hashtags like #TurnMeOn. However, it's good to note that by turning on notifications, it would mean you would be bombarded with alerts. Proceed with caution!

Ultimately, Instagram hopes that this update would help you pay attention to posts that truly matter to you

Image via Life Ann Style

What does means is that if you spend the majority of your time on Instagram scrolling through your favourite celeb's profile, then it's pretty likely their next snap will be appearing in your timeline.

Instagram rolled out this much needed update a while back:

                Instagram Finally Steps Out Of The Box With Their New Landscape and Portrait Feature

No more having to experience the trauma of choosing between cropping out your new haircut or your new shoes.

Multiple Parties Are Suing Putrajaya Over The Existence Of Vernacular Schools

Two education-centric groups said they are suing the government for allowing vernacular schools to exist in the country

Through their lawyers, the Gabungan Pelajar Melayu Semenanjung (GPMS) and the Islam Education Development Council (MAPPIM) said on Monday, 16 December, that they are seeking the High Court to challenge the constitutionality of vernacular schools, reported Malay Mail.The groups claim the existence of these schools is against Article 152(1) of the Federal Constitution that stipulates the Malay language as the national language.

The group claimed that Section 2, 17, and 28 of the Education Act 1996 that allows Chinese and Indian schools to conduct their lessons in their native languages, are against said Article

According to The Borneo Post, they would also like the High Court to declare that vernacular schools go against Article 5 (Right to a dignified life), 8 (Equality), 10 (Freedom of speech, assembly, and association), 11 (Freedom in religion), and 12 (Rights in respect of education) of the Federal Constitution.In addition, they wish for Putrajaya to ensure that the vernacular school curriculum is in line with other national schools within the six years of the Court's ruling.

The lawyers said GPMS and MAPPIM supported third languages such as Mandarin, Tamil, Arabic, and Kadazan, and others including Japanese and Korean, to be taught as language subjects

"However they should reject subjects being taught in any other language other than the national language," said their representing law firm, Messrs Amelda Fuad Abi & Aidil, with Haniff Khatri Abdulla as their lead counsel, reported Free Malaysia Today.

The group's lawsuit follows a recent case where a lawyer also aimed to seek declaration from the Federal Court about the existence of vernacular schools

Filed on 23 October, Mohd Khairul Azam Abdul Aziz sought that it was unconstitutional for Parliament to pass amendments to Sections 17 and 28 of the Education Act 1996.However, the Federal Court ruled that such challenges must first be made in the High Court and dismissed his application to obtain leave to pursue his challenge.In the most recent development, according to Malay Mail, Mohd Khairul sought the proper forum and filed a second lawsuit yesterday morning, 17 December."We re-filed our suit in the High Court so that issues pertaining to vernacular schools would be able to be determined by the High Court, once and for all," he said.

When asked about the lawsuit filed by GPMS and MAPPIM to challenge the constitutionality of vernacular schools, he replied in the affirmative that they were aware."We are aware but we don't know the details. We have no idea what they intend to do with their respective case or cases. We are on our own and they are on their own. Basically, that's the situation," he said.

McDonald's In Miri Removes 'Halal Only' Cake Sign To Respect Sarawak's Tolerant Society

All the McDonald's outlets in Miri have removed the 'only halal-certified' cake notices, following a directive by the Sarawak state government that has deemed the move unwelcome in the state's harmonious society

Image via Facebook/Durian Kopi O

Yesterday, 5 January, the McDonald's outlets in Miri received instruction from the headquarters, asking them to take down the only halal-certified cakes allowed in McDonald's' notice to "complement the tolerant spirit in Sarawak". Michael Tiang, the political secretary to Sarawak's Chief Minister Adenan Satem, said this in a statement yesterday. "As far as I know, Miri’s McDonald’s outlets were the only ones in Sarawak that followed in the footsteps of their Semenanjung counterpart to display the relevant notices at their premises," said Tiang.

Dubbing McDonald's Miri's decision to take down the 'halal cake' notice as a wise move, Tiang said that it serves as a positive response to the harsh criticism and opposition by Sarawakians towards the "unpopular" policy

He also went on to urge McDonald's to not extend its new policy of only allowing cakes that are certified halal by JAKIM to be brought into its outlets in Sarawak. According to him, it is not in line nor is it welcome in a harmonious society like Sarawak's. "It is always Sarawak Chief Minister Datuk Patinggi Tan Sri Adenan Satem's stand that racial or religious extremism has no place in Sarawak as Sarawak practises a culture of tolerance, moderation and mutual understanding towards all races and religions," he explained. Just yesterday, Tiang stressed that consumers were entitled to reject "unreasonable requirements" and could also boycott these restaurants if it comes down to it. "Sarawak cannot condone any religious or racial extremism which would only destroy the solidarity among Sarawak people," said Tiang in a statement.

Meanwhile, according to the Borneo Post's checks at a McDonald's outlet in Permaijaya in Miri, they apparently claimed that they had never put up the notice to begin with.
The same was said by two other McD's outlets they checked with.

However, an outlet in Sibu confirmed to Borneo Post that they had put up the notice briefly before taking it down.McDonald's has a total of 13 outlets in Sarawak and three of it is in Miri.

In the midst of this new halal-only cake policy, McDonald's Singapore came forward to reveal that they have been practicing this much criticised policy for the past 25 years already

Singapore's Channel 8 News reported that all the McDonald's outlets in Singapore requires its customers to produce a halal certificate for the cakes they bring into the fast food restaurant. According to Malaysiakini, a McDonald's spokesperson confirmed this matter and added that they have been practicing this since obtaining their halal certification from the Islamic Religious Council of Singapore in 1992.

On 29 December 2016, McDonald's Malaysia released an official directive saying that only halal certified cakes will be allowed into its outlets.
The move was heavily criticised by a lot of people, with many even threatening to boycott McDonald's.

Just a day later, on 30 December 2016, McDonald's Malaysia released another official statement apologising for the "public misunderstanding" over the halal cake policy. "As a company that serves all Malaysians, we have never intended to discriminate against anyone," read the statement on McDonald's Facebook page.They also thanked people for their views on this new policy and stressed that they will continue to make further improvements to ensure that McDonald's remains a place that is "truly for all Malaysians".


KLIA Passengers Waiting To Collect Their Luggage Surprised With Lavish Gifts Instead

Waiting for your luggage to come around on the airport conveyor belt can be irritating, especially if it takes a long time

However, passengers waiting to claim their baggage at KLIA got a pleasant surprise when beautifully wrapped gifts were going around on the carousel instead

According to MYC!, the lucky passengers came in on flights MH2613 from Kota Kinabalu and MH1 from London, and landed in Kuala Lumpur just four days before Christmas. The presents on the baggage carousel were not just any random ones however, as each had a name of every passenger onboard both of those flights.

Alongside its partners Malaysia Airlines, Lego Malaysia, Valiram, Dimensi Ekslusif, and Colours & Fragrances, MAHB spread the Christmas joy around by treating the incoming passengers to lavish gifts.The presents included Lego sets, Michael Kors handbags, and sets from Biotherm, Estée Lauder, and Nars.

Speaking about the campaign, MAHB CEO Raja Azmi Nazuddin explained that the company wanted to add "a little extra something" to greet passengers returning home for Christmas

In a report by Free Malaysia Today, Raja said he was happy that the passengers had a delightful time at the airport, and promised that MAHB would continue to enhance the airport experience for travellers. "Malaysia is going to welcome many visitors for Visit Malaysia 2020 and we are ready to give each and every one of them a fantastic first impression at the airport," he added, as quoted by Free Malaysia Today.
