New Programme

Public University

Education is something very important that everyone needs but not everybody could get. The main issue with education is that it is expensive, but many are only willing to give scholarships or programmes to those who score high grades.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1655791392/unsigned/ebuevkhkggahkjfa3e5h.webp" />
&nbsp;
Recently, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob announced that there will be an implementation of scholarship programmes dubbed Dermasiswa B40 TVET which will be specifically for B40 students pursuing in technical and vocational education and training (TVET) at public higher learning institutions under the Higher Education Ministry this year.
The purpose of the TVET programme is to help encourage and motivate students to pursue their tertiary studies in TVET. The first intake of the new programme will involve up to 1,000 students.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1655791414/unsigned/iex1kehvt06tqz4t1ihj.jpg" />
&nbsp;
&ldquo;The government projects that each intake of the programme will involve a financial implication of RM36.41 million&rdquo;, said Ismail Sabri.
As the programme allows those from the B40 household to gain more opportunities, he&rsquo;s certain that these students can get the assistance they need to build their own careers in the TVET field.
Currently, TVET is identified as one of 14 game changers in Malaysia. The government is trying to get the youth to make TVET as one of their choices as a guide towards the preparation for their future. The goal is to provide education and also have an outcome at par if not better than those in other developed countries.
TVET Day to be celebrated every year
During the launch ceremony, it was noted that the National TVET Day will be celebrated on June 2 every year to recognise the contributions of many quarters to TVET.
Does that mean another public holiday? Nah I don&rsquo;t think so.
&ldquo;It is also in conjunction with the establishment of Politeknik Ungku Omar, which is the country&rsquo;s earliest institution to provide TVET education since 1969,&rdquo; he said.
The main concern brought up by the government for the TVET programme is the provision of high funding where up to 80% of public TVET providers offered programmes for free. A total of 171,412 TVET programmes were offered from 2019 to 2021 for those pursuing diploma and a bachelor&rsquo;s degree level.
TVET sector yet to achieve the set target
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1655791444/unsigned/fuizjxnuddycvtjh29rs.jpg" />
&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Public awareness of the lucrative income to those working in the TVET sector has increased however they have yet to achieve their set target. Ismail Sabri notes that a paradigm shift must be done to create a more positive perception towards TVET with the support of the industry, parents and youth.
As of now, the government will be strategically planning on promoting TVET to Keluarga Malaysia as a highlight towards career opportunities and allowing students to conduct field visits so spark interest within their future industry choice.
Hopefully with the introduction of TVET courses, Malaysia can produce more youths to help contribute to specific industries and boost our economy up in the future.
Is this a great move by the government? Share us your thoughts.

A total of RM36.4 Million will be spent to put 1,000 students through the first term of TVET courses.

Need A Scholarship? Government Announces TVET Program For B40 Students

&nbsp;The issue of human trafficking has always been around for a while now but over the past few months, Malaysia&rsquo;s headlines have been reporting many cases of locals being human trafficked as they fall victim to job scams by syndicates.

Due to Malaysia&rsquo;s unstable economy, Malaysians of all ages have been looking out for jobs all over and some jobs were advertised online stating that it has high pay and great benefits. The victims then get attracted to and when they meet up with their new &ldquo;employer&rdquo; they get smuggled to countries such as Cambodia or Myanmar. From there, they are forced to conduct scam operations mainly targeting Chinese speaking individuals or foreigners.
Job syndicate arrested by authorities
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1656558998/unsigned/d6tdgryxbeefbai2xdva.png" />
&nbsp;
With the authorities cracking down on these cases, it looks like these syndicates are slowly getting caught. One such recruiter who allegedly works with the syndicates has been arrested recently. PCA Public services and Complaints Department head, Datuk Seri Michael Chong had identified the man as &ldquo;Danny&rdquo; and he is an Indian-American who can speak fluent mandarin.
Danny frequently operates via social media luring the victims with ads of high paying jobs available abroad. After convincing the victim to apply for the job, he would personally meet the victims and picked them up in person before smuggling them through clandestine routes out of Malaysia to go Myanmar and Cambodia.
Victims were also held under ransom while they perform their job and negotiation between the syndicate and family are talked upon as many want their loved ones back home.
Victims participate in scam operations under tight watch
The victims later learn about the truth of the jobs they were getting into as members of the syndicates kept them under watchful eyes with armed guards 24/7 to ensure that they don&rsquo;t go against their jobs.
The victims were all kept within a compound on multiple floors where it&rsquo;s said to have over 300 people and many of them also included Malaysians.

<script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

In a report earlier this week, Danny is identified as the same recruiter who had duped two teenagers from Pahang to take up a &ldquo;customer service position&rdquo; before they were smuggled to perform a love scam operation in Myanmar.
As of now, Datuk Seri Michael Cheong says that their department currently has as many as 74 complains regarding job scams but so far, only 23 people have been rescued. Authorities are currently in the right direction towards rescuing victims as operations are still currently ongoing.
&nbsp;Hopefully these victims will soon return to home to their families. Although it&rsquo;s tough for authorities to catch all these syndicates but slowly does it. 
A reminder to all to not easily fall for job scams easily as it could mean life or death for yourselves. I don&rsquo;t think anyone would want to go through the mental trauma of being smuggled around to work as scammers.

Victims were lured via high paying jobs on social media but authorities are still out to find more syndicates involved with the human trafficking issue happening in Malaysia.

Syndicate Who Lured Malaysians Into Job Scams Arrested 

Everyone knows the struggle of finding parking in a shopping mall on a weekend.
But the one thing many Malaysians love is the convenience of how we have Touch &lsquo;n Go to pay for parking cause it&rsquo;s super convenient. Many of us now live in the era of cashless transactions and sometimes we don&rsquo;t even bring cash around with us anymore.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1656491718/unsigned/chv27t3ddxcderwhrhem.jpg" />
&nbsp;
But if you&rsquo;re one to go to 1 Utama, you&rsquo;ll know that out of all the biggest malls in Malaysia and it still does not support TnG payments as they have their own parking payment card known as ONECARD.
It all started with a TikTok
As jokes can be fun and all, TikTok user Ping Zhi Chuah took the opportunity to make a TikTok stating about the struggles of going to 1 Utama without small change.
*Warning foul language used
<blockquote class="tiktok-embed" style="max-width: 605px; min-width: 325px;" cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@iamcpz/video/7077779316079136027" data-video-id="7077779316079136027">

<script async="" src="https://www.tiktok.com/embed.js"></script>

Ping had no small change and used a RM20 note to pay for his parking and in return, rather than getting notes back, he received RM18 of change in 50 cent coins (which were all new and shiny). The TikToker showed his frustration in a joking way saying how he now has all the coins while holding it in his hand.
Taking an opportunity
After that went viral, our favourite meme site MGAG took the opportunity to jokingly roast 1 Utama for not having TnG as one of their cashless parking options.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1656491756/unsigned/ivbftk6to1ftzrhpfl99.jpg" />
&nbsp;
But today the joker gets outplayed as 1 Utama came back with the ultimate response to MGAG as they plugged a promo for their ONECARD parking system.

1 Utama said that they had a good laugh on the post and figured a meme would be just as good as a response for this type of situation.
A spokesperson from 1 Utama had also shared that they do not believe in monopolies and want to keep parking rates affordable and free of surcharges for their shippers. Plus, for those using ONECARD, shoppers can earn UPoints and convert them into parking credits.
Get a free ONECARD!
If you haven&rsquo;t gotten a ONECARD yet, it&rsquo;s time to do so as 1 Utama is giving out it out for free till the 30th of June. All you have to do is flash your social media posting at the Customer Service or Concierge to get it!
Netizens love the friendly banter between MGAG and 1 Utama
As how we saw success of meme post boosting promotional value of a place or product such as how everyone&rsquo;s favourite GSC admin and Mydin Twitter admin did, it really does help spread the love in the community.
Check out some of the comments by those on social media:

&nbsp;
Only those who go to 1 Utama know the convenience of the ONECARD parking. Time to grab yourself one I guess :D 
Despite loving TnG&rsquo;s convenience, I&rsquo;d rather pay for cheaper parking than having to fork out RM8 to RM20 for parking in a day. What are your thoughts on this? Let us know in the comments.

1 Utama Hits Back At MGAG After Roasting Them For Not Having TnG Parking

Are you really Malaysian if you can&rsquo;t speak multiple languages? Unlike other countries, most Malaysians are bilingual or even trilingual which makes us one of the unique countries out there as we are living in a multiracial &amp; multilingual society.
But what makes us just as unique is how each state has their own dialects which can sometimes confuse most people, even locals. Have you tried having a full conversation with a Kelantanese person? Omg I always struggle to understand half the things they are saying.
The good thing about being able to speak multiple language is that it helps strengthen yourself in the working world and even the talent world.
A grab driver in Sarawak had posted a video on TikTok where he stole the spot light with his &ldquo;ability&rdquo; to speak another language. Typically, we don&rsquo;t see Malays talking in Mandarin or any other Chinese dialects but this got netizens impressed&hellip; and confused.
<blockquote class="tiktok-embed" style="max-width: 605px; min-width: 325px;" cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@pakwerangers405/video/7113753041467231515" data-video-id="7113753041467231515">

Off the get go, it&rsquo;s impressive that a non-Chinese person can confidently and fluently talk the language but as you can see in the video, even the uncle at the stall was also left in a state of shock when trying to communicate with him. The man was too stunned to speak.
One possible reason why most of us wouldn&rsquo;t understand the language is due to the Grab driver speaking in a local dialect which only Sarawakians can understand or is because he really isn&rsquo;t talking in a mandarin?
Not the first time the rider went viral on TikTok
Not too long ago, he had also gone viral when speaking Mandarin while at a motorcycle workshop. Although the Chinese man in the video didn&rsquo;t seem to understand what he&rsquo;s trying to say, his friends definitely had a good laugh as they were amazed at his speaking skills.
In fact, the video actually had 1.7 million views and 148.4K likes on it.

Do many Malaysians speak a Chinese language?

&nbsp;
To be fair, most schools in Malaysia teach Mandarin primarily, in comparison to the other Chinese dialects.
In Malaysia, Chinese languages vary from Mandarin to other dialects such as Cantonese, Hakka and Hokkien. These dialects may also further vary upon the state you live in and family upbringings. At the moment, there is around 22.4% of Chinese ethnicity living in Malaysia but it doesn&rsquo;t specificy how many of them could speak which language / dialects as some classify themselves as a &ldquo;banana&rdquo; (unable to speak ANY Chinese language / dialect).
Well, after passing my headphones to my intern&hellip; well I&rsquo;ll just put this gif down below as an reenactment of his reaction.

Netizens Stunned At Sarawakian Grab Rider Speaking Mandarin?

If you ask Malaysians what do we all have in common, for sure someone will answer is that we all love to eat. No matter where you go, there&rsquo;s always something delicious to eat around the corner at almost any time of the day.
<img src="https://media4.giphy.com/media/tto9ax6TYcYslqXUxc/giphy.gif?cid=790b7611a45faa04bf746d1b0f6a1339341fb8e04760629f&amp;rid=giphy.gif&amp;ct=g" alt="Episode 2 Abc GIF by The Bachelorette" />
&nbsp;
But one thing that&rsquo;s difficult to handle is how people view our food and also maintaining the hygiene and cleanliness of the restaurant and the food. One slip up and a post on social media can mean the downfall of the restaurant as it is.
Recently, a customer took to Facebook having shared their bad experience at a restaurant in Kuala Lumpur as she came across a fishing hook while enjoying the meal with her family. Her father had found the hook inside the fish head embedded in a chunk of flesh.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1656472126/unsigned/k4rmy0otzil5n4zrmipb.png" /> My genuine reaction to show I&rsquo;d look if I find a fishhook in my meal. 
&nbsp;
&ldquo;Isn&rsquo;t it incredible? We found a fishing hook inside a fish head. Fortunately, my father didn&rsquo;t take a whole bite, and broke apart the flesh before finding the hook.&rdquo; she said.
As she was stunned, she had asked for the manager to make a report on the incident.
Manager blames distributor and not their restaurant
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1656472142/unsigned/yrm52bsbs2wffdkaaui5.png" />
&nbsp;
The woman flagged one of the waiters and explained what would happen if other families did not discover the hook or if children were to share the meal. The waiter did apologise and said it was the kitchen&rsquo;s fault for being careless which is understandable.
But things took a twist when she went to pay for the meal, she questioned the manager in charge over the matter. However, the manager allegedly responded stating that &ldquo;it&rsquo;s not our fault, it&rsquo;s the supplier&rsquo;s problem.&rdquo;
<img src="https://i.gifer.com/8mx.gif" alt="Shocked face shocked sorprendido GIF on GIFER - by Lahuginn" />
&nbsp;
Even after this issue, the restaurant had only deducted 60 cents from the total bill as a form of &ldquo;compensation&rdquo;.
Report to JKN if ethics are not followed
The public is advised to immediately make a complain to the State Health Department (JKN) if people who sell food without complying with the ethics of preparation of the food.
Earlier in January 2022, a famous restaurant in Kelantan had been penalized under the Food Act 1983 for causing food hazards after a child had accidentally swallowed a nail which was used to seal the food packaging.

Looks like we&rsquo;ll have to be more careful when we eat outside. Sad to say the behaviour from the restaurant owner was truly disappointing and hope that no one will need to go through an issue like this again.

Not only did they not take responsibility for the incident but the restaurant only gave a 60 cent discount over the incident.

Customer Finds Fish Hook In Food! Restaurant Blames Supplier Instead

Looks like things are getting a little spicy in the world of politics.
Many know that Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party (PAS) is an Islamist political party in Malaysia. Recently their Youth Chief Ahmad Fadhli Saari was in the spotlight as he came under heavy fire when he visited a cinema in KL.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1656402867/unsigned/gliaxs9fppjmjvsamwbi.jpg" />
&nbsp;
Many took to social media to point fingers at him after activist Khalid Mohd Ismath had accused the party of double standards.
&ldquo;When people asked to build a cinema in Kelantan, PAS says it was forbidden but PAS clerics went to see movies in KL and it&rsquo;s not haram.&rdquo;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Di Kelantan, bila rakyat minta bina panggung wayang, PAS kata haram tetapi ulama PAS pergi tengok wayang di KL tak pula haram. 😆😄😂. Binawe. <a href="https://t.co/ocEmoJJ0mo">pic.twitter.com/ocEmoJJ0mo</a>

For those who didn&rsquo;t know, there is no cinemas at all in Kelantan and those who would want to watch a movie will need to head to Terengganu to do so. Ever since PAS ruled in 1990, the Lido Cinema along Jalan Pos Office Lama, Kota Bharu had closed down.
The best part of this whole issue is that Ahmad Fadli who is the Pasir Mas MP was also the man who had initially rejected the proposal to build a cinema in Kelantan back in 2016 due to cinemas being a source of maksiat (social ills).

Malaysians call out the party

&nbsp;
What&rsquo;s political drama if there&rsquo;s no one calling the party out. Malaysians called PAS &ldquo;hypocrites&rdquo; as they had exploited the religion for personal gain.

PAS Selangor Youth speaks up on the situation
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1656402966/unsigned/qmblk5wjk9wvtqvn1mbb.png" />
&nbsp;
Due to all the backlash, PAS Selangor Youth had stepped in to defend Ahmad Fadhli on Facebook. The only reason why he was at the cinema was due to him accepting the invitation to watch the new &ldquo;Mat Kilau&rdquo; film and wanted to show his support for it.
They also stated the cinema ban in Kelantan and watching movies in KL should be viewed as a separate matter and things like this should be judged in a fair manner. Meanwhile, they also stated that they still support the context of rejecting cinemas in Kelantan as the current day movies do not comply with the shariah and has loose regulations.
Well, that&rsquo;s one way to put it huh? I guess this is why the party has been losing support over the years. As highlighted by one Twitter user, the only reason why they are still in power is due to voters outside Kelantan coming back to the state just for the election.

The party was criticized and stated that visiting the cinema in KL and banning it in Kelantan should be viewed separately.

PAS Youth Chief Slammed For Double Standards After Visiting Cinema To Watch “Mat Kilau”

Are you one of those people who drive to work every day? Raise your hand if you&rsquo;re constantly stuck in traffic despite your workplace being nearby.
<img src="https://media4.giphy.com/media/3o6fIUdNKSknMxblG8/giphy.gif?cid=790b76117a31afb710b7fef47dbc415e947bdee1f6d30cd5&amp;rid=giphy.gif&amp;ct=g" alt="Season 1 Mrs Maisel GIF by The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" />
&nbsp;
A study was conducted and states that commuters in the Klang Valley spend at least 44 hours per month being stuck in traffic jams. The average employee is estimated to be stuck in their vehicles for one to two hours everyday during their journey to work says UiTM Dr Ismaniza Ismail.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1656396641/unsigned/nrz3avnamialutjcvuhs.jpg" />
&nbsp;
Most employees work only eight hours a day but due to the daily commute, many lose a couple hours of their day right there. Employees around the Klang Valley also have to wake up earlier than usual in the morning to get ready and avoid getting stuck in traffic jams.
In fact, some people when going to work, instead of a smooth journey, they drive right into a traffic jam which can also be just outside of their housing area since most major housings are close to the main road or highway.
Dr Ismaniza states that the issue doesn&rsquo;t only plagues workers&rsquo; personal lives but also affects the productivity cost. The average wage in Malaysia is RM7 an hour and for two hours a day wasted in traffic and then you multiply it by 22 working days, most employees was at least RM308 of productivity in a month.
If you think RM308 isn&rsquo;t a lot, it can do wonders such as paying for petrol, groceries at home and many other necessities.
Everyone knows that when you&rsquo;re stuck in a traffic jam, it can affect ones mental and emotional health. Plus it&rsquo;s bad for our bodies as it can cause backpain for sitting down for long durations thus affecting ones emotions and productivity within a workplace.

Efficiency of public transport 
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1656396684/unsigned/mufwmjzeg6vxtabsqg6n.jpg" />
&nbsp;
Lately, the LRT/MRT and e-hailing services such as Grab have been the talk of the town as many find it too inefficient. The frequency of trains has decreased due to it being under maintenance and stations are getting too crowded. Meanwhile Grab is facing a shortage of drivers on the road due to many not willing to drive in the heavy traffic and have now left for other proper jobs again.

One solution suggested is for companies to have flexible working arrangements so employers can adopt ways to reduce employee&rsquo;s stress. If it&rsquo;s one thing that&rsquo;s certain, its that those in the Klang Valley can expect traffic congestions to get worse.
As we all talk about arrangement for flexible working hours in the future to reduce stress and increase productivity, the government had also passed an amendment in the Employment Act which will be enforced starting on 1 September.
By then, employees are allowed to formally request for flexible working arrangements which include working hours, days and to remotely work. However, their employers must give a written reply within 60 days and provide a reason for the rejection of the application.
If its one thing is that I hope the government will take the public transport issue mor seriously and see to improve its services in the coming years. If this keeps up, I don&rsquo;t think anyone would even be attracted to live or work in Kuala Lumpur anymore.

To avoid mental and physical health issues, Dr Ismaniza suggest that flexible working hours could help solve this issue.

National women&rsquo;s top squash player, S. Sivasangari was involved in an accident at Maju Expressway last Sunday (June 26). Unfortunately, she was ruled out of the upcoming Birmingham 2022 Commonwealth Games due to severe injury.&nbsp;
The 23-year-old athlete was a passenger in a car when a lorry crashed into them. She was rescued before the vehicle caught fire and rushed to Hospital Putrajaya after sustaining head and body injuries which required emergency surgery.&nbsp;
According to a press conference held by the Ministry of Youth and Sports and Squash Racquets Association of Malaysia (SRAM) yesterday, she is awake and in stable condition.&nbsp;
<img src="https://assets.hmetro.com.my/images/articles/sivasangari_1654685298.jpg" alt="Sivasangari buru gelaran kedua | Harian Metro" />
The Commonwealth Games is set to take place from July 28 to August 8 in Birmingham, England. Sivasangari just won her second national championship title this month as reported by Free Malaysia Today. She was Malaysia&rsquo;s medal hope in women&rsquo;s individual and doubles games and was set to be the Malaysian contingent&rsquo;s flag-bearer alongside Paralympian Bonnie Bunyau Gustin in Birmingham next month.
It is the second accident that took place at the same location involving a high profile athlete. Back in January 2020, then world&rsquo;s best badminton player, Kento Momota was involved in a crash with a lorry as well where he tragically witnessed his driver&rsquo;s death. He suffered a broken nose, fractured cheekbone and received stitches to his lip.&nbsp;
Sivasangari Subramaniam is a Kedahan born squash athlete who has been playing the sport since she was eight. Her career kick started when she was nominated as National Schools Sports Council (MSSM) 2011 Promising Sportsgirl of the Year in 2011. Years later, she became the youngest women national champion in final Ohana 34th National Squash Championships in 2018. On March 6 2022, she won College Squash Association (CSA) National Collegiate Individual Championships as her first individual title for Cornell University. She is currently ranked the world&rsquo;s 19th in women&rsquo;s squash.

Maju Expressway, also better known as MEX Highway is an accident hotspot for road vehicles for its long and bent road. Even the residents are concerned by the frequent accidents happening in the area. The responsible company, Maju Expressway Sdn Bhd (MESB) should add more warning signage for road users to be aware and stay alert. Either way, we equally carry the same responsibility to drive safely on the road, especially involving speed limit and traffic lights, for ourselves and others.&nbsp;
On the other hand, I wish Sivasangari a speedy recovery and comeback stronger.
