KL Housewife Who Made RM18K Playing PUBG Gets Frequently Told To "Go Back To The Kitchen"

This is Roslinda Embran

A housewife from Kuala Lumpur, she is more famously known as Lynda Embran according to her social media presence where she also manages a popular Facebook page called MissRose Gaming.

Lynda is a PUBG Mobile streamer on Facebook, where she livestreams her matches and earns enough to contribute towards her household

Yep.In fact, she is so good at it that she has been recognised as an official Facebook Gaming Creator and reportedly made RM18,000 since making her debut playing the PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG).

However, Roslinda's journey from amateur to pro-gamer has been a long one that also saw her battle the conservative commentators.
She frequently gets told to "go back to the kitchen and cook".

Lynda was recently interviewed by Zayan My, a radio channel on YouTube, where she shared how when starting out there were so few viewers she could count on the fingers of one hand.But things aren't the same anymore.Her Facebook page, MissRose Gaming, now has over 100,000 followers, where her livestreaming videos that are over three to five hours long get viewed anywhere between 25,000 to 150,000 times.

With success, though, has also come scrutiny from conservative commentators, who frequently judge her lifestyle choices and accuse Lynda of not fulfilling her duties as a wife.According to her, they say things like, "Why are you playing video games? It's better for you to just cook in the kitchen. Women aren't supposed to play games. Don't you have work to do?"To her credit, Lynda says that she doesn't let the hate affect her.Additionally, playing PUBG Mobile has provided her with the freedom to be financially stable enough where she no longer needs to wait for her husband's income."At first, I could only hope for money from my husband. But now, as a video game streamer, our contracts depend on the following of our viewers," Lynda told Zayan My in the interview."If we stream every day, Facebook will contact you to make you a partner. Now, this is my job. I play video games and earn my own living while supporting my family," she added.

Despite the sexism she gets online, Lynda says her family - which is still her top priority - has been supportive of her gaming endeavour

She has come to find a balance between her role as a wife and mother and her gaming career.In the interview with Zayan My, she described what her typical day looks like.In between preparing food for her family, sending her children to school, doing some housework, spending time with her family in the evening, she finds enough time to livestream to maintain her viewership."To succeed, don't give up even for a second," she said in her advice to others."Keep trying even if you may fail many times. The first thing you must do is set your dream."

M'sians Rally Behind Woman Being Shamed For Swapping Eggs From Different Cartons

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

Pictures of a woman allegedly swapping eggs from different cartons at a supermarket has sparked a flurry of comments about whether this behaviour is acceptable or not

The pictures, taken by an unnamed citizen, were submitted to community Facebook page Penang Kini. The page then shared them on 12 June."A buyer's attitude that should not be followed," the post read.The shopper wrote that while at the supermarket to buy groceries, they saw a woman at the eggs shelf and wondered why she was taking a long time there."As I stared, I realised something," they went on to say in the post."There are still shoppers with this attitude. Picking an egg carton from the shelf and switching the eggs as they please."Penang Kini then concluded the post by asking for the opinions of netizens.

Malaysians flooded the comments section, most of whom defended the woman's actions

One Facebook user said that as long as the woman switches the eggs with other eggs of the same grade, there should be no problem. "We have to be smart consumers. We're paying for what we eat," wrote the user.

Another noted that chicken eggs are expensive."If we are paying, they should be in good condition. There is no problem in choosing. Sometimes we only realise some eggs are cracked after buying them. It would be a waste," read the comment.

Image via Facebook

Some netizens opined that we should just mind our own business in this kind of situation.One user wrote that, the woman in question is paying with her own money, "Even the supermarket owner is not making a fuss, why should we freak out over this."

Image via Facebook

"If there's time to spare, there is no problem to pick and choose. No matter how long she takes, it is up to her, maybe the eggs were cracked or spoilt. Alahai, you even took the chance to take pictures just to use as content," one netizen pointed out.

As of writing, the post has received over 1,100 comments and 2,900 reactions from netizens.

22-Year-Old Woman From Setapak Missing For A Week After Leaving Family Doubtful Message

It has been a week since the disappearance of 22-year-old insurance agent, Chia Min Yong, and as of writing, there has still been no news of her whereabouts

According to China Press, the woman from Setapak has been missing since last Tuesday, 5 April.Chia's family and boyfriend told the Chinese daily that they last saw her going out to meet a client that evening, as she always did, and nothing had seemed amiss.However, after she did not come home that night and they could not contact her because her phone was switched off, the family decided to lodge a report to the police at the Rawang police station."Her phone's geolocation indicated she was at the same place from 7pm on the day she went missing, until 12am when I left work, that's when I felt something was wrong," Chia's boyfriend, Lucas Chan, told China Press."Even if she was in a bad mood, she would still tell her family and me of her whereabouts," he said, adding that she would usually see clients for no more than two hours.

Image via 雪州网 MySelangor (Facebook)

Before she became uncontactable, Chia's mother had received a lengthy text message from her daughter admitting that she was doing badly at work

Chia had allegedly disclosed that she has been having financial difficulties, and has not had money for food for the past three months.She also said she was leaving home to find a higher-paying job "somewhere a little far"."Honestly, the money I've had since New Year's has all been borrowed. But I want to be good to you and Dad. I'm sorry for leaving home to find a job," she said."I'm already grown up now. Please let me be free, just like father has let me go."The message ended with the following: "Don't call me, I've made up my mind. My luggage and passport have been prepared. You'll just scold me if you call.""I'll switch off my phone first and contact you again in a few days to let you know I'm safe. I love you, Mummy."

Image via 雪州网 MySelangor (Facebook)

The family does not believe that Chia has run away from home and are worried that she may have been coerced and held against her will

The family said, while her passport is missing, Chia had not taken any of her other belongings, clothes, or luggage with her, nor had she quit her current job. The car she had been driving has also been found in Setapak and the police have said there are no records of her leaving the country.However, the family is not ruling out the chance that she may have chosen to cut contact due to personal struggles."We miss you very much. Come back soon. Mum and Dad won't blame you," they said.SAYS reached out to Minnie, Chia's sister-in-law, who said the family has yet to receive any updates about Chia's whereabouts as of today, 12 April.If you have any information regarding the case, do contact the Rawang police headquarters at +603-60916222.

Ini Cerita Hitam Di Sebalik Lagu 'Nursery Rhymes' Yang Ramai Tak Tahu. Meremang Bulu Roma!

Bayi serta kanak-kanak yang masih kecil sememangnya memerlukan suasana tenang untuk tidur

Gambar sekadar hiasan.
Image via Buka Review

Tidur memang penting untuk bayi dan kanak-kanak kecil. Bayi berusia kurang daripada enam bulan memerlukan tidur selama 16 jam sehari dan ianya adalah lebih berbanding kanak-kanak lain untuk perkembangan tubuh dan otak. Namun, apabila umur mereka meningkat, tempoh tidur mereka juga akan semakin berkurangan kerana si kecil sudah mula pandai bermain dan aktif setiap hari.Sampaikan nak tidurkan mereka pun menjadi lebih sukar, bukan?

Sebab itulah kadang-kala ibu bapa di luar sana memerlukan bantuan nursery rhymes untuk dipasang supaya lebih senang untuk anak-anak tidur

Image via Giphy

Tapi tahukah anda, lagu-lagu nursery rhymes yang popular seperti Baa Baa Black Sheep, London Brige Is Falling Down, Three Blind Mice dan banyak lagi sebenarnya mempunyai maksud dan cerita 'hitam' di sebalik liriknya?Mungkin ramai yang masih belum tahu. Perkongsian mengenai kisah hitam di sebalik lirik lagu nursery rhymes ini telah dikongsi oleh seorang pengguna Twitter iaitu @PopPelangi atau lebih dikenali sebagai Puan Eleena M di laman Twitter miliknya.Baca penuh di bawah:

Setiap lagu ada cerita 'hitam' di sebaliknya!

Image via Twitter @PopPelangi

1. Baa Baa Black SheepLagu ini sebenarnya merupakan lagu protes terhadap cukai bulu kambing yang dilaksanakan oleh Raja Edward I pada 1275, kerana mahu membiayai perang menentang pemberontakan di Wales, berperang dengan Scotland dan Perancis.Lagu ini menyentuh sistem kelas pada zaman itu dimana bagaimana harta negara dibahagikan. Master merujuk pada Edward I, dame merujuk kepada tuan tanah, dan 'little boy who lives down the lane' merujuk kepada harta rakyat yang dibahagi semuanya.Pun begitu lagu ini juga turut digunakan oleh golongan anti penghambaan di England pada kurun ke-18 dan di Amerika Syarikat di era sebelum Perang Saudara, merujuk kepada penghambaan kaum Afrika di negara tersebut.Pada asalnya ia tidak mempunyai melodi, dan melodi ditambah pada tahun 1740 berdasarkan lagu rakyat Perancis, Ah! Vous dirai-je, maman dan muziknya kemudian diolah oleh Mozart pada 1781. Selain Baa Baa Black Sheep, lagu ABC dan Twinkle2 Little Star juga berdasarkan melodi ini.

Image via Google

2. London Bridge Is Falling DownLondon Bridge Is Falling Down mempunyai banyak teori. Antaranya adalah serangan tentera Olaf II dari Norway ke atas England pada 1014 yang meruntuhkan jambatan di Sungai Thames. Lagu ini juga dikatakan mengisahkan ritual korban kanak-kanak yang dilakukan secara ritual pada satu masa dahulu, walaupun pakar sejarah tidak dapat mengesahkan kejadian tersebut. Selain itu, lagu ini juga dikaitkan dengan kebakaran besar London pada 1666 yang mengakibatkan jambatan itu musnah akibat kebakaran tersebut. Bagaimanapun yang popular ialah tentang korupsi semasa pembaikan jambatan ini di zaman Henry I, dimana kos membina jambatan ini dikatakan disonglap oleh gundik baginda, Matilda dari Scotland.

3. Three Blind MiceLagu ini dikatakan mengisahkan tentang hukuman bunuh terhadap 3 paderi Anglikan oleh Ratu Mary yang menganut Katolik. Ratu Mary, dikenali sebagai Bloody Mary membutakan mata paderi2 ini, pun begitu mengikut catatan sejarah, paderi2 ini dibakar hidup-hidup.Dikatakan maksud "3 blind mice" itu merujuk kepada paderi tersebut yang "membutakan" hati mereka dengan menolak ajaran Katolik. Lagu ini ditulis oleh Thomas Ravencroft, merujuk kepada peristiwa sejarah tersebut.

Image via Google

4. Ring Around The RosieWalaupun ramai yang mengaitkan lagu ini dengan Black Death yang berlaku pada 1347-1351 akibat wabak bubonik, yang mengakibatkan kematian 200 juta orang, tetapi ia sebenarnya mengisahkan Second Pandemic yang berlaku di London pada 1665.Wabak bubonik yang berasal dari tikus, dikatakan membiak akibat dari kencing dan najisnya, disamping pembentungan najis yang tidak sistematik.

Image via Google

5. Jack and JillAda banyak kisah yang berkait tentang lagu ini, antaranya mengisahkan tentang cerita komedi pada zaman Elizabethan sekitar 1560an. Pun begitu ada yang mengaitkan tentang pembunuhan Raja Louis XVI dan isterinya Marie Antoinette dalam Revolusi Perancis 1789-91.

Image via Google

Sebenarnya banyak lagi lagu-lagu popular lain yang dinyanyikan oleh kanak-kanak dan dijadikan sebagai nursery rhymes

Menyeramkan!

Majikan Buat Tak Peduli, Gadis Dedah Usaha Bapa Sedekah Barang Dapur Pada Warga Bangladesh

Kini sudah memasuki minggu ketiga Perintah Kawalan Pergerakan dilaksanakan

Image via penangkini

Susulan daripada Perintah Kawalan Pergerakan yang sedang dijalankan ketika ini, Perdana Menteri Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin telah mengumumkan Pakej Rangsangan Ekonomi Prihatin Rakyat yang bertujuan untuk membantu meringankan beban yang dialami masyarakat umum.Muhyiddin berkata, Pakej Rangsangan Ekonomi Prihatin Rakyat ini berjumlah RM250 bilion yang mana ia akan memberi manfaat kepada seluruh rakyat Malaysia.Namun begitu ketika di musim Perintah Kawalan Pergerakan ini, antara insan lain yang turut terjejas adalah warga asing yang menetap dan bekerja Malaysia.Ketika perintah tersebut berlangsung, sudah tentulah punca pendapatan mereka sedikit terjejas lebih-lebih lagi jika gaji yang diterima mereka sebelum ini diperoleh secara harian.

Justeru, memahami kesukaran yang sedang dialami warga asing ketika ini, seorang bapa mengambil inisiatifnya yang tersendiri dengan membantu menghulurkan bantuan kepada mereka

Proud of my dad. Bagi makanan dekat warga bangladesh. Dahla duduk rumah share, majikan dorang tak ambil peduli pun dengan tak bagi makanan langsung. Ingat dorang bukan manusia ke? pic.twitter.com/HOLobnXyvz— Аташа (@atashazmi) April 1, 2020

Usaha yang dilakukan lelaki berhati mulia tersebut dikongsikan oleh seorang pengguna Twitter yang juga merupakan anaknya iaitu @atashazmi.Menurut gadis itu, dia berbangga dengan usaha dilakukan oleh bapanya ketika ini yang menghulurkan bantuan kepada sekumpulan warga Bangladesh. Katanya, majikan warga asing berkenaan telah mengabaikan kebajikan mereka malah sedikit pun tidak menghulurkan bantuan kepada kelompok terbabit.

Tindakan murni yang dibuat oleh bapa gadis ini secara tidak langsung telah menyentuh hati netizen di Twitter

Sejak artikel ini ditulis, perkongsian tersebut telah mendapat lebih daripada 11 ribu RTs dan 18 ribu tanda suka.Rata-rata mereka menyifatkan ia sebagai satu usaha yang sangat baik dan mengucapkan tahniah kepada keluarganya yang mengambil berat akan keperluan golongan terjejas.Malah, mereka turut mendoakan agar keluarga gadis ini sentiasa dimurahkan rezeki sebagai balasan atas usaha mereka membantu orang yang tidak berkemampuan.

Ya Allah. Alhamdulillah bagusnya. Sy pun terfikir2 nasib2 mereka. Nak keluar kawasan nak beli keperluan takut polis. Nak duduk area rumah berkongsi2. Alhamdulillah. Smoga ur dad & ur family diberi kan ke sejahteraan selalu doakan sy & keluarga dapat buat mcm ni juga 1 hr nanti— Oli Sykes Stark Targaryen (@nadiyahsusinoo) April 1, 2020

Tahniah utk famili awak.Ayah awak tunjuk satu contoh yg baik utk masyarakat.Terima Kasih kerana kurangkan sedikit beban.Atas dasar kemanusiaan.Ayah awak patut dipanggil HERO.Semoga Allah mudahkan dan luaskan rezeki ayah awak dan sekeluarga.Aamin.— ر.ف (@FarishRaef) April 2, 2020

The Star reported that family members of Tunku Abdul Rahman sold the property to a private company more than a decade ago.Penang Malay Association (Pemenang) president Tan Sri Mohd Yussof Latiff said the property had termite problems in the past, and there were talks to turn it into a gallery.However, the suggestion did not materialise.The property is currently listed on PropertyGuru, Penang Property Angel, and other international property listing sites.The property previously underwent renovation, but it is not specified when it had taken place.A senior real estate consultant told New Straits Times that there is no record of who lived there since Tunku Abdul Rahman's passing and the property has been left empty for many years now.

This Public Notice By The Ipoh City Council Is Going Viral For All The Wrong Reasons

Yikes, what a way to start the new year. A public notice pasted onto the glass doors of the Ipoh Tourism Information Centre (ITIC) has gone viral on social media after it was found to be riddled with grammatical errors.

Image via Facebook

The notice reads: "Sorry for the complementary, we are closing for the temporary, Saturday 30/12/17 & Sunday 31/12/17 because we had an unexpected problem within our networking and air conditioner issue. We are sure that we are been operated on 2nd January 2018."

The error-filled notice has once again put the spotlight on poor English proficiency among employees in public service, with many lamenting the standard of English in the country

According to Ipoh Mayor Zamri Man, the Ipoh City Council found that the notice was produced by an employee working at the centre, adding that the employee will be called up to explain how the error-filled notice managed to see the light of day

In a statement issued via WhatsApp, the mayor said, "We will ask for a detailed explanation of how this could happen.If we find that there was a clear incidence of carelessness, and that the mistake was made without thinking of the consequences to the council, we will take action."

The mayor further elaborated that the council would be issuing a stern warning to the employee responsible for producing the public notice

"We will also advise this individual to ensure that this mistake does not happen again," he said, adding that the council will also issue a show-cause letter to the employee so their explanation can be put on record.

However, netizens pointed out that the employee should not be the only person to be punished for the mistake. Rather, their superiors should also be held responsible for not vetting the notice before it was put up.

Some also suggested that instead of punishing the employee responsible for the error-filled notice, they should be sent for English classes along with their colleagues to improve their command of the language

[VIDEO] 21-Year-Old College Student Stabs And Kills 4 People In Taipei Metro

Parents Of Taiwan's Subway Attacker Say "He Should Be Sentenced To Death"

Image via imgur.com

The tearful parents of the man who killed four people in a stabbing spree in the Taipei subway apologized Tuesday to victims' families and asked for him to be executed as soon as possible. The mother and father of Cheng Chieh, 21, were mobbed by reporters and some relatives of those killed or injured when they met the public for the first time since the bloodshed on Wednesday last week.

        malaysia-chronicle.com

Escorted by police, Cheng's weeping parents kneeled in front of reporters and a crowd that had gathered at Jiangzicui metro station in New Taipei to mark the exact time when the attack took place seven days ago.

Wearing hats and face masks, the couple prostrated themselves three times at the subway train station outside Taipei where the college student was arrested. "Although he is our child, the crime he committed is unforgivable," Cheng's sobbing father told reporters. "I think he should be sentenced to death... he should face it himself. Only by so doing may the pains inflicted on the victims and the wounded and their families be slightly eased."

        gmanetwork.com

The father urged judges to pass sentence as soon as possible. "We hope Cheng Chieh can act in a correct manner during his next life," he added. The families of some of the dead and injured said they would accept the couple's apologies while others termed them insincere, according to TV reports.

In response, the mother of the youngest victim Chang Cheng-han, a 26-year-old graduate student at National Cheng Kung University (NCKU), said Chen's parents failed to educate their son well and had caused serious problems in the society. “Family education is very important,” Chang's mother reiterated. If Cheng's parents really want to offer an apology, they should go to the victims' mourning halls, Chang's mother said. “However, my son will not return to life,” she lamented.

        chinapost.com.tw

Chang's father also said that an apology was meaningless and could not ease his pain. He said he can only hope that there will be no recurrences of such an incident in Taiwan. Chang was set to obtain a master's degree in business administration and international business from NCKU in Tainan City this summer. When the attack took place, he was in Taipei for a job interview.

WATCH: Taipei Metro attacker caught on video

The video is from 21 May 2014, when a 21-year-old college student, identified as Cheng Chieh, went on stabbing spree on a Taipei Metro train

Moments after his train left a station in Taipei on Wednesday, a young Taiwanese man randomly stabbed passengers before his violent fury ended when he was forced to the ground, police said.

        bbc.com

At least four people were killed and more than 20 injured in the incident, the first such attack since the East Asian nation's mass rapid transit system opened in 1996

According to police, the suspect, a 21-year-old college student, began attacking people 20 seconds after his train left Longshan Temple Station in Taipei. Staff were alerted something was wrong after people hit an emergency button, and the train stopped at the next station, Jiangzicui.

        cnn.com

He was subdued by Taipei City Police "along with MRT staff and courageous passengers," the Taipei City Police Department said in a press release

The attack happened at around 4:25 p.m. local time on the Bannan (blue) line, inside a train heading west between Longshan Temple Station in Taipei and Jiangzicui Station in New Taipei. The distance between the two stations is the longest between any two stations in the metro system, lasting around 5 minutes.

During the attack, the assailant hacked and chased passengers with a 30 cm long fruit knife. Before the train could stop at Jiangzicui Station, a group of passengers banded together to distance themselves using umbrellas while others tried to discourage the attacker by loudly taunting him.

        foxnews.com

According to New Taipei Police Chief Chen, the suspect said he had wanted to do something "shocking and big" and had been considering the attack for some time

Cheng spoke of his motives during police questioning. “He told the police that he had wanted to do a ‘big thing’ such as this since his childhood,” Chen Kuo-en, chief of the New Taipei City police bureau, told reporters

        news.com.au

“He said he had planned to do this after his graduation, but last week decided to act ahead of his schedule,” Chen said, adding that the attacker had no medical record of mental disorder.

The student bought two knives, including a 30-centimetre-long knife and a smaller one at a supermarket in Taipei in preparation for the attack, Chen said.

        news.com.au

Cheng had no medical record of mental illness. But the vice president of Cheng's university said there were indications from his activities on social media that he could be mentally unstable.

"We got a tip from his former high school classmates around the end of April, and that tip said the alleged killer posted something on his Facebook page saying 'I'm going to do something big,'" Tunghai University Vice President Tsai Jen-Teng told CNN.

        cnn.com

The college arranged a formal counseling session for Cheng on May 9 but he failed to show up, Tsai said. Several days later, he attended another meeting with a military officer, and "seemed to be acting quite normally," he said. Cheng transferred to Tunghai University last summer after struggling to maintain his grades at a military academy. "He failed over half of his courses," Tsai said.

        foxnews.com

The incident has sparked a debate online about whether the death penalty is appropriate punishment for such attacks, with several Facebook fan pages also supporting Cheng and what he did on 21 May

A Facebook group named "Indefinitely supporting death penalty for Cheng Chieh" had over 32,000 "likes" as of Thursday.

        cnn.com

Several Facebook fan pages supporting Cheng have appeared following the stabbing, with names like "Go Cheng Chieh" and "Love Cheng Chieh fans' special page."

        wantchinatimes.com

However, many more netizens have rallied against these support pages, calling on users to report the sites and flood them with negative comments.

GPS Berhantu. Gadis Kongsi Kisah Seram Di Lebuhraya Kajang - Seremban Lewat Tengah Malam

Seringkali kita terdengar kisah-kisah seram melibatkan lebuh raya di Malaysia

Image via Google

Selalunya lebuhraya akan dikaitkan dengan cerita hantu kerana terdapat kepercayaan bahawa terdapat roh-roh terkorban yang maut akibat kemalangan di beberapa kawasan lebuhraya yang menghantui lokasi berkenaan. Walau bagaimanapun, kita haruslah sentiasa berhati-hati di jalan raya agar kita selamat sampai ke destinasi yang ingin dituju dan bagi mengelakkan kejadian yang tidak diingini berlaku.

Image via Twitter @fiksyenshasha

Seorang gadis menerusi laman Twitter @fiksyenshasha telah berkongsikan tentang pengalamannya yang sesat di lebuh raya Kajang-Seremban lewat tengah malam akibat GPS yang sedang dilayarinya membawanya ke lokasi yang mampu menaikkan bulu roma kita semua.Baca perkongsian penuh di bawah:

Assalamualaikum pembaca Fiksyen Shasha, aku Wawa. Aku nak share kisah yg aku sendiri alami. Kisah ini terjadi pada tahun 2015.

Masa tu hari Jumaat. Malam tu aku dan kawan aku, Hana dah plan untuk keluar makan. Aku bertolak dari rumah aku yang terletak di Hulu Langat menuju ke rumah Hana yang terletak di Putrajaya pada jam 9 malam.Kami decide untuk makan di bandar Nilai pada malam tu (tak tahu lah kenapa, tiba-tiba spontan dia ajak aku makan dekat situ).Setelah selesai makan, jam menunjukkan pukul 11.30 malam. Aku decide nak stay rumah mak saudara aku je dekat Mantin, sebab masa tu kami berdua pun dah mengantuk (tula gatal lagi nak makan jauh-jauh, huhu).Lagipun Mantin tak jauh dari Nilai. Aku tak berapa sure jalan ke Mantin, sebab aku jarang pergi so aku set GPS ke Kolej Lagenda sebab rumah makcik aku dekat rumah pangsa area situ je. Itu jela landmark yang aku ingat.

Image via Facebook Fiksyen Shasha

Kami pun mulakan perjalanan, selepas melepasi area Pajam GPS menunjukkan arah untuk kami terus lagi dan terus lagi dan lagi. Kemudian GPS arahkan kami belok ke kiri. Disitu kawasan perumahan rumah teres.

Agak usang dan gelap. Semua rumah disitu kelihatan usang. Mungkin jimat elektrik masing-masing. Tapi ada seperkara yang aku pelik...

Aku: Seingat aku datang dengan mak aku takde pulak aku kena lalu taman perumahan ni. Biar betul GPS ni?Hana tengok GPS semula, belek skrin tengok jalan yang dipaparkan dalam GPS.Hana: Memang dia tunjuk arah ni weh, kau terus lagi kat belakang tu je. Lagi 500m.Aku pelik sebab rumah makcik aku rumah pangsa, ni rumah teres.Usang. Gelap. Sunyi.Aku pun bawa kereta perlahan-lahan ke arah arahan GPS, lalu GPS bersuara ‘You have arrived at your destination’. Aku terpaku. Dalam hati aku istighfar banyak. Depan mata aku adalah sebuah kuil, kiri kanan semak samun. Kuil nampak seperti kuil lama. Aku pandang Hana, Hana pandang aku.Aku: Kau set location ape tadi?Hana: Kolej Lagenda la weh. Ni ha kau tengok.Aku pun tengok. Betullah. Aku pun patah balik. Cuba untuk cari jalan keluar. Di kawasan perumahan tu aku boleh sesat nak keluar. Reset location ke Kolej Lagenda, arahnya tetap sama ke arah kuil.

Aku cakap dekat Hana, "Na, baca ayat kursi banyak-banyak, Na." Tak lama lepas tu, akhirnya aku jumpa jalan keluar. Jam menunjukkan pukul 12.30 tengah malam.

Aku pun meneruskan perjalanan. Location dah reset balik. Tetapi lagi sekali kejadian pelik berlaku. Kami tiba-tiba masuk ke satu perkampungan. Di situ ada roundabout kecil dan GPS arahkan kami untuk keluar di first exit (means ikut arah jam pukul 9).Kami pun terus sehinggalah diberi arahan ‘turn right’. Aku tidak terus ke arah kanan, aku brek mengejut. Hana melatah lalu dia bertanya kepada aku.Hana: Wawa, kau dah kenapa ni brek mengejut? Terkejut aku.Aku: Hana, GPS suruh belok kanan ke? Serious?Hana: Yelah, ni ha kau tengok.Aku: Hana, kanan ni (aku tunjuk dengan jari).‘Tanah Perkuburan Islam’Hana ternganga. Terdiam. Bisu.Aku pun cepat-cepat tekan minyak berjalan terus. Dalam hati, kalau ada kawasan rumah atau kawasan lapang aku nak pusing pastu keluar terus. Dan aku pusing di sebuah depan rumah kayu yang usang.

Mata aku terpandang sesuatu. Lembaga berkain putih lusuh bertenggek atas tangga rumah kayu tu. Rumah kayu tu pun gelap gelita jadi memang obvious nampak kain putih.

Tak berani nak pandang kiri kanan. Aku terus pusingkan kereta dalam keadaan kalut. Aku tak tau Hana nampak ke tak. Aku lalu semula di depan kubur tu GPS arahkan kami ke kiri (sebab aku dah pusing td jadi kubur belah kiri).Tapi aku terus tak belok kiri. Sampai la jumpa roundabout tadi tapi aku pelik. Aku pusing roundabout tu 3 kali, lalu balik depan tanah perkuburan tu tapi aku tak nampak jalan keluar. Aku dah tak sedap hati.Aku berhenti jap tepi jalan tapi bukan la dekat area tanah perkuburan tu. Hana dah diam membisu. GPS berkali-kali arahkan kami patah balik ke tempat tadi. Aku langsung tak nampak apa-apa rumah melainkan rumah kayu yang usang tadi tu.Aku baca Al-Fatihah, ayat Kursi dan ayat 3 Qul banyak-banyak kali. Baru lah aku nampak signboard ke arah Nilai, Pajam etc.Aku pun keluar dari situ, then Hana cakap, “Weh, tidur rumah kau jela. Lalu highway LEKAS ni."

Aku pun mengiyakan je. Kami exit highway lekas dari Mantin. Aku ingat gangguan dah habis tapi ada lagi yang terjadi...

Kami melalui highway Lekas melalui exit Mantin. Jam menunjukkan pukul 3 pagi. Dari pukul 12.30 tengah malam sampai dah pukul 3 pagi.Aku dah physically dan mentally exhausted tapi aku teruskan perjalanan, dalam otak aku nak cepat sampai je. Mula-mula exit Mantin tu nampak jugak 2-3 biji kereta meluncur laju meninggalkan kereta Myvi aku ni. Dalam hati aku "Yesss, ada jugak kereta lain."Hana pulak sejak masuk highway LEKAS dia diam je. Aku tanya Hana, “Hana kau ok ke? Kalau ikutkan Mantin ke Hulu Langat ni kereta tak banyak gini 30-40 minit sampai lah."Tetapi Hana diam menunduk sahaja hanya menjawab, "Hmmm..." Mungkin dia penat, aku biarkan saja.Aku pun teruskan perjalanan tapi masa tu dah takde kereta kiri kanan. Meter kereta aku mencecah 120km/j tapi aku rasa kereta aku slow sangat. “Na, pesal kereta aku ni slow sangat ek? Dah tekan minyak pun aku rasa kereta macam kura-kura lagi nih."

Image via Google

Hana tak jawab, just menundukkan kepala ke bawah. Aku pun toleh ke arah Hana, aku nampak tingkap disebelah Hana kain putih berjuntai di tepi tingkap. Aku pandang semula kedepan.Aku tengok cermin pandang belakang. Gelap gelita. Aku tak nampak langsung line jalan putih ke lampu jalan ke. Aku pandang side mirror belah aku. Nampak je line putih jalan ni. Aku dah tak sedap hati.Aku amik CD Yaasin aku masukkan dalam player. Tiba-tiba Hana tutup. Aku on balik, Hana tutup balik. Eh minah ni, main-main pulak dengan aku. Aku on balik then kuatkan volume. Tangan aku, aku biarkan di radio tu.

Aku nampak dari ekor mata aku, Hana merenung aku tajam. Tiba-tiba dia gigit tangan aku. Aku menjerit kesakitan. Nasib tak hilang kawalan stereng. Hana start meracau selang seli dengan menangis dengan ketawa.

Aku baca ayat Ruqyah yang aku ingat, aku terlalu takut sampai aku tak berani nak pandang Hana. Tiba2 Hana bersuara, “Kau takut ke? Hahahahahahahahaha!”Kemudian dia sambung gelak meracau menangis. Dia tolak badan aku, menjerit sekuat hati dia. Kereta hampir hilang kawalan, beberapa kali jugak la nak terlanggar divider.Aku laung ‘Allahuakbar’ 3 kali lepas tu aku Iqamat. Aku dah tak tau nak buat apa. Depan tu aku dah nampak tol. Lepas je bayar tol aku berhentikan kereta tepi jalan. Aku tengok Hana dah diam, dah terkulai, pengsan mungkin.Aku call mak ayah aku. Jam waktu tu dah pukul 3.45 pagi. Dalam 4.30 pagi mak ayah aku sampai dengan sorang ustaz. Ustaz tu yang bawak kereta aku sampai la ke rumahnya.Disitu dia pulihkan semangat Si Hana ni dan biar dia berehat dan kami sekeluarga bawa dia ke rumah mak ayah aku dan aku call mak ayah Hana seusai Subuh.

Pukul 10 pagi Hana tersedar, dia masih lagi pening. Aku menyuruh dia mandi dan makan. Mak ayah dia pun dah sampai kat rumah aku masa tu. Aku tanya Hana apa jadi semalam.

Dia cakap masa exit highway lekas tu dia nampak orang pakai baju putih melambai-lambai ke arah dia.Dia pun menundukkan pandangan ke bawah dan selepas itu pandangan dia kosong, fikiran dia kosong dan dia rasa badan dia lemah sangat.“Ada benda yang menyakat kamu ni, hijab kamu ditutup. Kamu tu anak dara, sepatutnya tengah-tengah malam gini duduk dekat rumah. Kawan kamu ni pun semangat lemah dan kebetulan tengah uzur jadi lagi senanglah benda tu nak mengacau.Nasib dia tak ikut balik ke rumah, kot dah jatuh cinta kat kamu berdua, satu hal pulak nak membela nanti. Lepas ni jangan keluar malam lagi ye”, kata ustaz kepadaku.Sejak dari itu aku dan Hana tak keluar malam dah. Sebelum pukul 10 malam mesti kami dah balik rumah, huhu.

Najib's Lawyer Wanted To Pay Only 10% Of The RM5 Million Bail Demanded By Prosecution

Tan Sri Shafee Abdullah, lawyer of former premier Datuk Seri Najib Razak suggested a RM500,000 bail for his client today with two sureties, contrasting the RM5 million demand from lead prosecutor Datuk Seri Gopal Sri Ram

Shafee arriving at the KL Courts Complex earlier today.

Malaysiakini reported Shafee as claiming that the bail amount should not be "punitive", before adding that Najib's passports have already been surrendered.However, Sri Ram argued against the RM500,000 bail suggestion, saying that the amount should not be a "mockery"."This case involves the man (then) holding highest office in the executive of the country and he faces serious charges and he must realise the severity of the offence and (also so) the public may know," Sri Ram argued."It is not correct to say RM500,000 would suffice due to the amount stated in the charges," the lead prosecutor added.

Charged under the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001 (AMLATFA), the prosecution argued that Najib should not have been granted bail

Free Malaysia Today reported deputy public prosecutor Akram Garib as saying that the offences Najib were charged with are non-bailable according to the Criminal Procedure Code.Nonetheless, the prosecution came to the conclusion that the bail amount should be set at RM5 million if the court agrees to grant bail for Najib.

Justice Azura Alwi eventually fixed the bail for Najib at RM3.5 million, and allowed him to walk free

Shafee then promised the court that RM1 million will be paid tomorrow, 21 September, and RM500,000 for every other day until 28 September.Prior to today, Najib has paid a RM1 million bail for his last seven charges.


Tun M: "I've To Trust Him (Anwar) Whether I Like It Or Not. I Can't Be Here All The Time"

Earlier today, 26 July, CNN published an interview they did with Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad at his office in Putrajaya

In the interview with CNN, Tun Mahathir spoke about a host of issues including how "he inherited a government lousy with corruption and with few trustworthy officials.""From outside we saw the damage, but we never expected the damage to be so extensive. Most of the top echelons in the government are corrupt. I have to work with some of those people who are suspect," Mahathir told CNN, highlighting how it becomes difficult to work when you don't work with people you trust because then "you don't know whether what you want them to do will be done or not."

Image via CNN

One of the things Tun Mahathir spoke about was the succession plan of Anwar eventually replacing him as Prime Minister

Tun Mahathir, who is reportedly using the same desk he used during his first premiership, told CNN that, "if the condition for us working together is my serving as Prime Minister for two years or three years, for me that is not important."The world's oldest leader added that his personal opinion of Anwar Ibrahim did not matter, as he "will abide by the wishes of the people."

According to Tun Mahathir, he has to trust Anwar

"I have to trust him whether I like it or not. I can't be here all the time."However, according to CNN, he added if "people want me to serve" beyond the time agreed with Anwar's coalition partners, then Mahathir would stay in power.

Recently, the Prime Minister also assured that those who blow the whistle on corruption will be protected from retaliation:

                Tun M: "If You Tell Us What Has Happened, We Will Protect You From Any Retaliation"

The 93-year-old leader has promised to run a clean government.

On Facebook, a slightly above four-minute long video has gone viral

The video, uploaded on 7 December, shows three Malaysian siblings, who work in Singapore, planning an elaborate heartwarming reunion to surprise their parents after nearly two years of separation.The siblings, 33-year-old Choong Kai Yee, 24-year-old Kai Le, and their brother Alex, decided to make use of the newly-established Vaccinated Travel Lane (VTL) between Singapore and Malaysia.Kai Yee told WeirdKaya that she is married to a Singaporean and has a PR after working there for 12 years, while her younger sister and brother have worked there for five and eight years, respectively.In the Facebook post, Kai Yee shared that she and her siblings were ecstatic upon the establishment of the VTL on 29 November and started planning a trip back home but wanted to surprise their parents."We've been thinking about going home for a long time," said a homesick Kai Yee.They, however, told their parents that they would not be able to return until CNY.

According to Kai Yee, her elder sister, who stays in Malaysia with their parents, had suggested that she bring the whole family to eat at Holiday Inn Johor Bahru City Centre once the three siblings were finally home

This, in turn, prompted Kai Yee to come up with the plan to surprise their parents by pretending to be waiters. They approached the hotel management to ask if that's something they would be onboard with.The management was more than happy and even offered to provide them with uniforms of hotel staff to disguise themselves. On the afternoon of 6 December, the trio arrived in Malaysia and headed to the hotel.Once there, they got dressed as 'waiters' and used face masks to cover their facial features.

When their parents arrived, the siblings executed their plan

Alex, dressed as a chef, entered first and pretended to help their father with some of the dishes.To throw off their father, Alex purposefully only spoke English but even then the father could sense that the 'chef' looked very much like his son, remarking, "Looks like Ah Boy (Alex) ah, this one".When Kai Le entered, the father, after hearing her speak, commented that she sounds like his daughter. "She looks just like Le Le [Kai Le]!" he explained to his wife, who had not realised they were her children.It was at this point that the trio decided to reveal themselves with Alex first taking off his mask.

The father, in shock, runs towards Alex and starts jumping with joy

Kai Yee also revealed herself and the siblings burst into laughter.Emotions run high during the heartwarming reunion as they start to tear up while hugging each other.

In her post, Kai Yee mentioned that they are five siblings and their parents have never been partial. "They love us all equally," she wrote.

The reunion has touched the hearts of many.At the time of writing, Kai Yee's post had been shared over 10,000 times and had thousands of comments.

Watch the heartwarming reunion here:

If You Have An Eye For Photography, You'll Love The Dual Leica Lens On This Phone

Leica is a brand that needs no introduction. Synonymous with quality, the company's lightweight cameras are widely used by amateur and professional photographers around the world.

Leica 1

Leica's reputation as a first-class camera manufacturer was established in the 1930's and remains to this day. One of its most acclaimed cameras is the Leica I. While the Leica I was by no means the first 35mm camera, it was the first to make 35mm truly viable, leading to the most popular film format ever.

Leica is one of the most trusted names in photography, making some of the best cameras money can buy.

Now the German optics firm has partnered with the third largest smartphone manufacturer in the world, Huawei, to bring their expertise to the mobile market

Yes, that's Superman and Black Widow taking a selfie together with the P9!
Image via Huawei Malaysia

Introducing the P9. Sporting not just the Leica brand name, the P9 is equipped with two 12-megapixel cameras on its back. One lens shoots exclusively in black and white, while the two together provide a DSLR-style photography.

Image via Android Authority

Image via PC Advisor

The cameras are packed with a wide range of features for both photography enthusiasts and trigger happy phone users that have long abandoned point-and-shoot cameras for smartphones. Here’s what the P9 is capable of:

1. The dedicated monochrome lens is able to absorb more light and detail compared to many smartphone cameras out there that utilises a black and white filter

Image via Preston Les

Image via SAYS

The lens uses a dedicated monochromatic sensor, meaning that the pictures are taken in black and white. The sensor is more sensitive to details and light than the conventional RGB sensor, and it is in charge of absorbing light, and field depth. As you can see above, the photo taken with the P9 is slightly darker, but otherwise flawless photo, even at a lower resolution.

Image via Edwin Tan

Image via Cation Ng

When taking black and white photos, you can clearly see another advantage to a camera with a monochromatic sensor. The results are stunning, to say the least. It perfectly captures and truly displays the melancholic nature of black and white photography.

2. Artistically blur out parts of your photo with the bokeh effect

Image via SAYS

Image via Grexer Lee

Fancy some great bokeh shots? You might not know the term, but you’ve definitely seen it: it’s the effect you get with a good camera when the subject is pin-sharp but the immediate background is blurry. While bokeh effects are usually only achieved using cameras and special lenses, on the P9, taking the perfect shot requires minimal effort.

Image via Jamcs21

Look at that delicious cup of cappuccino!
Image via SAYS

There are also times where we regret the focus point of the shot and want to change it much later right? Good news! The P9 also allows you to post-edit the bokeh effect into your existing photos.

3. Impress your friends with eye-catching light trail photos

Image via SAYS

Image via Yee Hooi San

Huawei has brought in the awesome Light Painting feature from its predecessor - P8. What the feature does is it captures the scene with the correct exposure and from there it keeps adding the light trails of the passing cars for as long as you like without any risk of overexposing the scene.

Image via Leon

Image via SAYS

All of your friends will be asking you "How did you manage to take a shot like that?!"

4. The Pro mode gives you control over the camera, allowing you to achieve a professional look for your photos

Image via CNET

The Pro mode enables you to change the focal points, adjust the shutter speed from lightning fast to slow, change the white balance and set the ISO. It’s very much like using a DSLR camera, and you’ll find that controlling the ISO and shutter can banish the blur that sometimes affects shots in automatic mode. By using the Pro mode, you'll be able to shoot in RAW. RAW is a file format that captures all image data recorded by the sensor when you take a photo. When shooting in a format like JPEG image, information is compressed and lost. Because no information is compressed with RAW, you’re able to produce higher quality images.While it might take a little of practice to get the hang of the feature, it gives you complete control over how you would want your photos taken. Challenge accepted? :D

5. Night shots are clear and without distortion

Image via SAYS

Image via Selebriti Online

The Night Mode allows you to take clear and distortion-free shots at night, which can be really difficult to achieve even with a DSLR camera. The amazing thing is that the phone shows you a live preview how the exposure changes with every passing second. You can stop the process anytime when you decide you've captured enough details.

Image via Cheah Peng

Image via Js Eufron

It's really easy and requires no additional photographic knowledge or tweaking of manual settings! All you need to do is to frame your shot, start shooting, and then stop shooting as soon as you're satisfied with your photo.

6. Photos in natural light look stunning with high contrast elements

Image via Grexer Lee

Image via SAYS

Outdoor test shots were incredibly vibrant with plenty of colour saturation, and that extra contrast captured by the monochrome sensor is particularly telling too, with photos appearing crisp and punchy.

Taken with the HDR mode
Image via SAYS

Image via Encik Ad

Switch it up to HDR (High Dynamic Range) and witness brighter and more vivid colours in the photos. HDR is a method that aims to add more "dynamic range" to photos (the ratio of light to dark in a photograph). In short - higher quality photos!

To sum it all up, the P9's camera system produces above average results that exhibit some extremely pleasing images

Image via Android Pit

The dual lenses give the camera better depth perception, giving it a wider focal range. Its range of shooting modes provides* enough complexity to take interesting shots and it is equally capable of taking great images with minimum effort.If you're a photography enthusiast, the P9's Pro mode and bokeh effect would be right down your alley. The ability to adjust the shutter speed from lightning fast to slow, change the white balance and set the ISO would give you the impression of using a DLSR camera.If you’re a regular smartphone user, the multiple modes and features of the P9 like the Beauty and Monochrome mode will make your snapping sessions an easy and effortless one.


Meet The Man Helping Transform Disadvantaged M'sian Women's Lives Through Entrepreneurship

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

"It begins in your own community."
This Kofi Annan response when he was asked what people can do to become good global citizens has inspired the people behind Women Of Will (WOW) in their work with disadvantaged women in Malaysia.

A non-profit, non-governmental organisation (NGO), WOW works to transform the lives of single mothers, widows, abandoned women, and women with incapacitated husbands. The organisation helps these women, who are living in poverty, struggling to get by day-to-day, through microcredit financing with entrepreneurial development programmes.Active in the country since 2009, WOW, in an email to SAYS, shared that they have worked to give a new lease of life to the urban poor in Selangor, Kuala Lumpur, and Sabah. The group has also helped hundreds of refugees in collaboration with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR).Among the thousands of disadvantaged women that WOW has helped empower, many have gone on to start their own small businesses and have gained financial independence. The footing provided to these women has enabled them to care for themselves and their families without having to rely on handouts.

And leading the people behind the NGO is 29-year-old Lakshwin Muruga, who works as the WOW chief operating officer (COO)

Lakshwin shared with SAYS that WOW provides B40 women in the country with business capital, training on entrepreneurship, and coaching to support them in developing sustainable and profitable businesses.According to Lakshwin, WOW works to develop some of these women entrepreneurs into women community leaders who play an active role in supporting the sustainability of their community."Together with these women community leaders, WOW has developed a community kitchen, community sewing centre, and community business centre in low-cost flats (PPR), with the aim of financially supporting women entrepreneurs in these communities," he said.

Lakshwin, who started working with disadvantaged communities during his teen years, has since gained almost a decade of experience through urban and rural communities in Malaysia, Sri Lanka, and Nepal

An individual who refused to accept the status quo and "norm" of a typical young graduate, the 29-year-old has coached and taught single mothers in Malaysia how to make money in their small business ventures.Lakshwin told SAYS that he has been part of WOW's core team since the NGO was formerly registered in March 2016 with the Registrar of Societies Malaysia.Speaking further, Lakshwin shared that WOW has gone on to transform the lives of more than 2,400 women from 26 communities in  the country, while developing 59 women community leaders in these communities."WOW is currently focused on deepening our impact in the 26 communities that we are active in. This includes developing more women leaders and giving them the resources they need," he said while elaborating on the resources such as training, coaching, funding, connections, etc. to implement projects that can support their fellow community members."Furthermore, we're looking at reaching out to more women entrepreneurs to help them in creating sustainable and profitable businesses. This includes expanding our reach to other states such as Kedah," he added.

Talking about a recent experience that touched his heart, Lakshwin related that the incident involved one of the women who had joined WOW's community sewing centre near a PPR

"Last week we had a team meeting with the tailors [at the community sewing centre] and got everyone to share their challenges and successes. As we went around, we heard stories of new tailors who had just joined the [centre three] months ago and had zero sewing skills when they joined. They joined the [centre] as a way of developing their independence by generating their own income."What touched me was how one participant shared that in her first month she had no idea how to even sew a button. By the second month, she was making about RM400, and by the third month, she [doubled it]," Lakshwin told SAYS.

According to Lakshwin, it was the happiness the woman had on her face while sharing with the group that really moved him and reminded him that those living in low-income communities have the potential and ability to develop themselves and their peers — they just need the right support and resources."She was so proud of herself for being able to develop a skill and earn her own income, thanks to her fellow community members who taught her sewing at the centre," Lakshwin added.The experience was only made warmer, he told us, by the support and encouragement she received from the more senior tailors who advised her to save up to buy her own sewing machine as they did.

The 29-year-old aims to be in a position where he can make the lives of others better, especially those from low-income communities

Lakshwin, who is a Human Resources Development Fund (HRDF) certified trainer with eight years of experience in the training and development industry, as well as a Young Southeast Asian Leaders Initiative (YSEALI) fellow, shared that he would like to further develop his skills so he can be more effective at what he does."I would like to understand how I can help create a system/society that allows for more people to play an active role in supporting those who need help," he shared.

How can people help?

While the NGO continues to provide a footing to disadvantaged women in the country, people can also help make their lives a bit better by looking for opportunities to volunteer in local organisations."Ideally, look for something that resonates with your own passion and interest, as this ensures the engagement is more sustainable," said Lakshwin.He added that WOW is also active in rural communities in Keningau, Sabah where they conduct similar programmes focused on agriculture as a source of income.
