Good News

Are you someone who really loves cryptocurrency?
Well, if have invested into Dogecoin, we have some good news for you.

&nbsp;
Thanks to the internet&rsquo;s favourite Meme Connoisseur AKA Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, the value of Dogecoin had shot up &ldquo;to the moon&rdquo;.
<img src="https://giffiles.alphacoders.com/213/213073.gif" />
&nbsp;
The reason behind this is that Tesla recently announced that they will begin accepting the cryptocurrency as legal tender. Musk had even gone to his Twitter stating that consumers can purchase &ldquo;some merchandise&rdquo; with Dogecoin.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Tesla will make some merch buyable with Doge &amp; see how it goes
&mdash; Elon Musk (@elonmusk) <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1470703708677840896?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">December 14, 2021</a></blockquote>

As soon as he had announced that, the value of Dogecoin had rose by 15% from RM0.67 to RM0.88. At the time of writing this article, the coin is currently priced at RM0.77. The decision of this was anticipated as a couple months ago, he had agreed with his Twitter followers that Tesla should accept the coin as payment.
For those who did not know, Dogecoin has been around since 2013 where it was created by software engineer Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer. It all started off as a joke but within two weeks of it&rsquo;s debut, the coin had rose in value from US$0.00026 (~RM0.0011) to US$0.00095 (~RM0.0040).
Is Elon Musk the key to breaking the Cryptocurrency market?

&nbsp;
If you follow the man on Twitter, you can sometimes realise that he&rsquo;s the reason why cryptocurrency had fluctuating value due to some reasons. Earlier in the year, he had managed to raise the value of Bitcoin from RM150K to RM180K as he had purchased US$1.5 billion (~RM6.35 billion) worth of the digital currency.
Even back in May 2021, when Musk clarified that Tesla did not sell any of their bitcoin and when he started s**tposting, the price had dropped by 20%.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
To clarify speculation, Tesla has not sold any Bitcoin
&mdash; Elon Musk (@elonmusk) <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1394170030741413888?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 17, 2021</a></blockquote>

<script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

In fact, previously he had also drove the prices of the <a href="https://myc.com.my/articles/623/crypto-shiba-inu-coin-storms-up-to-the-11th-biggest-crypto-currency-in-the-world">Shiba Inu coin to drop</a> by 10% as he stated he did not own any of the currency.
When you really think of it, Musk is pretty smart (I am if it isn&rsquo;t obvious enough) cause he manages to fund SpaceX from crypto alone. If one were to closely follow how Musk invests into crypto, I&rsquo;m sure people can make it big here as one simple cryoto related tweet can definitely shake the market up.
Do you think it&rsquo;s wroth to invest more into these meme coins since it now has more potential to go up in value? Let us know your thoughts!

Elon Musk Drives Dogecoin Value Up After Tesla Accepts Coin As Payment

If its one thing about living in the city, it&rsquo;s needing to heavily rely on public transport.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653293706/unsigned/quivwywnathkpr8cmsyc.png" />
&nbsp;
Not many Malaysians are fortunate enough to own a car and some also may differ saying that using public transport is better and more cost efficient and it&rsquo;s more convenient. Although that the statement is true, many now debate whether owning a car is actually better than using public transport as the prices of e-hailing fares have surged up the ceiling.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653293679/unsigned/p1ilv6ogth6aztwwhafq.jpg" />
&nbsp;
Many of us need to still use Grab specifically when going home or to work as most stations (such as busses or even trains) don&rsquo;t directly access the housing area you might be living in.
Transport Minister Datuk Dr. Wee Ka Siong has now called upon platforms to give an explanation and clarification of the alleged price increase as high as 400% during peak hours after many have complained about expensive fares they have to pay recently.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Grab Car vs AirAsia Ride. Same pickup spot, same destination. But the price difference is almost doubled. <a href="https://t.co/NN6SEvO0TU">pic.twitter.com/NN6SEvO0TU</a>
&mdash; F I T Z (@SiegfitzM) <a href="https://twitter.com/SiegfitzM/status/1517804258900738048?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 23, 2022</a></blockquote>

<script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

&ldquo;An increase from RM20 to RM70 in the current situation is seen as burdensome to the people, so I think as a policymaker, we will see if any party is taking advantage to make a profit&rdquo; said Dr. Wee after visiting Ampang Park LRT on Sunday 22nd May.
He&rsquo;s requested for the Land Public Agency (APAD) to review and the issue and ask the companies to explain the price hike situation with expectations for an answer to come up in the next day or two.
APAD says that one of the few factors effecting the price is the working environment of drivers, passengers, service providers and others must be taken into count. This is to ensure the balance of supply and demand in e-hailing as both the service provider and user must have a mutual agreement for bookings via their apps while showing the fare amount.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653293699/unsigned/mjl7xgjsd9lf0fiywtdy.jpg" />
&nbsp;
If it isn&rsquo;t bad enough, the price hike is also affecting food delivery services. Customers even have the option for a premium queue order where it gets you the food faster, but it seems that many are ending up waiting just as long if not longer for food during peak hours.
For example, Food deliveries around the Kelana Jaya area to those residents in SS7 went up from RM2/ RM3 during off peak hours and RM5 delivery during peak to RM4.50/ RM5 during off peak and up to almost RM9 during peak hours.
With the reopening of economic sectors, services have seen a drop of approximately 25% in riders and at least a 10% of delivery food demand dropped as well.
Did you know Malaysia has 32 registered e-hailing platforms?
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653293727/unsigned/cr5oxqg5y2fmdesd3c84.jpg" />
&nbsp;
Some of the most well-known apps out there consist of airasia Rides, Grab, EZCab, MULA, Kumpool, InDriver and more.
Back to square 1 
Since prices are sky rocketing, many people are resorting to using Taxi&rsquo;s again as they offer more affordable prices. In fact, taxi passengers had increased by 40% lately said Combined Taxi Across Malaysia president Kamadurin Mohd Hussain.
Another reason towards the price hike of e-hailing services is due to the government not introducing controlled fares that taxi&rsquo;s have. During rush hour, due to competition, they take advantage to raise the prices due to high demand and as most of us are busy and want to get things done quick, we will automatically just take it.
Kamarudin suggests that the fairs of e-hailing services till still increase and it&rsquo;s almost impossible for it to go out of control if the number of taxi&rsquo;s decrease.
Fares on taxi&rsquo;s work differently as they start at RM3 and passengers will be charged RM0.10 for every 115m travelled.
Psst, want a discount on e-hailing and food deliveries?

&nbsp;
Now the real question is if e-hailing is still worth it or is owning and driving your own car better?
Yeah, there&rsquo;s pros and cons to both but what are your thoughts? Let us know!

The real to ask now is if it’s cheaper to own a car and daily drive it or just continue on with e-hailing?

As if Malaysia didn&rsquo;t have enough on their plates. With the country entering into the pandemic phase after suffering through Covid-19 for almost two years, there&rsquo;s nothing in our way from reopening everything against, isn&rsquo;t there?

Unfortunately, there has been an outbreak of the monkeypox virus in several countries in Europe and North America as it made headlines globally. Many had become worried as monkeypox had originally originated from countries with tropical rainforests and rural areas of Central and West Africa.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653287552/unsigned/w0kkragkn0xq9pggqbda.png" />
&nbsp;
Director-General of Health, Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah and scientist alike were baffled at the incident, but they had issued a statement informing others to not worry as the transmission of the virus is limited.
If one were to get infected from the virus, it won&rsquo;t have effects as bad as Covid-19 and most people typically recovers in 3 weeks or less.
What is Monkeypox and how is it transmitted? 
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653287577/unsigned/q8k8gn033o5ckfsvvwh3.jpg" />
&nbsp;
As the name says it, this disease was actually first identified in monkeys and was first discovered in 1958 by the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). It all started when two outbreaks of a pox-like disease occurred in a monkey colonies which were kept for research purposes.
Although discovered in 1958, it wasn&rsquo;t till 1970 till the first human monkeypox case had happened in the Domocratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) as they were in an intensive period of attempting to eliminate smallpox.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Monkeypox comes from the same family of eradicated smallpox which is closely associated with animals. It&rsquo;s unusual to see the outbreak clusters. Nonetheless it&rsquo;s being closely monitored.
&mdash; Noor Hisham Abdullah (@DGHisham) <a href="https://twitter.com/DGHisham/status/1527489785652297728?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 20, 2022</a></blockquote>

<script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Till this day, the host carrier of the monkeypox disease is still unknown but it&rsquo;s suspected that it may have came from African rodents.
The way the virus is transmitted is via humans through a few methods such as close contact with lesions, body fluids, respiratory droplets and contaminated materials such as bedding.
CDC says that the virus enters our bodies via broken skin, respiratory tract as well as mucous membranes (ears, nose and mouth).
Signs of monkeypox

&nbsp;
Similar to smallpox, the symptoms are essentially the same but much milder. It starts up with a fever, headache, chills, muscle aches and also exhaustion.
The surface of your skin will also show signs of rashes which can spread around the body. If you see lymph nodes (bumps on your skin), don&rsquo;t be surprised as monkeypox can cause this.
The main steps of prevention for monkeypox is to have good personal hygiene and with that, you&rsquo;ll have a lower chance of getting infected.
Monkeypox is less contagious than

&nbsp;
Thankfully of us, the outbreak in several countries have been reposting that the spread is slow, and the virus is less contagious compared to Covid-19.
The rise in cases however is a direct correlation towards the east of Covid-19 restrictions now.
Also, just for reassurance&rsquo;s sake, there&rsquo;s already a vaccine for it and it&rsquo;s proven to be effective. The vaccine however had been discontinued in the 1970s after the eradication of the smallpox virus. The main concern now is those below the age of 50 are likely those at risk since they had not received the vaccine due to it not being widely available.
WHO also stated that the current chickenpox vaccine should have 85% effectiveness against monkeypox.

Yes, monkeypox is something that we all have to be aware off, since it&rsquo;s closely elated to smallpox, the vaccine from it can help protect us. Another thing us Malaysians should also remember and make sure is to ensure you practice good hygiene and you should (hopefully) be fine.

"Don't Panic!" Health DG Advices Malaysians Over Monkeypox Outbreak 

Hari Raya should be a time where everyone enjoys the festive season surrounded by people you love and also, good food!
It&rsquo;s not uncommon that people host banquets and open houses throughout the month, and it can be in offices, homes and sometimes schools. During those events, VIPs or even VVIPs are invited and treated to a variety of food.
<img src="https://media2.giphy.com/media/yrBwdH8CD7K5q/giphy.gif?cid=790b7611da8f77864896ffcd1f856abf178e4295e930b8bb&amp;rid=giphy.gif&amp;ct=g" alt="Happy Studio Ghibli GIF by Spirited Away" />
&nbsp;
With that being said, a banquet event that was held at a school had caught the attention of many for the wrong reason and became the talk of social media.
<iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fxbgsx666%2Fposts%2F5321177271237158&amp;show_text=true&amp;width=500" width="500" height="735" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>

Facebook user Mohd Fadli Salleh shared the incident online and it managed to gain 32K Likes, 2K reactions, 4K comments and 6.5K shares across the platform.
Unfair treatment towards the kids 
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653275836/unsigned/cisgxfptmcyd5djpgqvf.jpg" />
&nbsp;
&nbsp;
When eating a &ldquo;banquet&rdquo; style meal, logically speaking everyone should be provided a table but unfortunately during this event, the kids who attended it were sitting on the floor while the VIP/ VVIPs were sitting under a tent with the chairs and tables nicely decorated.
Although the floor was mopped, it was still deemed inappropriate for the event. Another issue was that the food is too close to the floor and shoes which are covered in bacteria, viruses, germs and parasites. Not to mention, Malaysia is currently having an issue for Hand Food Mouth Disease (HFMD).
Aside from that, everyone had to wait for the VIPs to start the ceremony before the children were allowed to eat. The orphans also had to wait in long lines before they were able to eat.
Netizens outraged over the situation
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1653275861/unsigned/uuk52tvqnnnmkevqgdql.jpg" />
&nbsp;
Many talked about the contrast of students having to sit cross-legged on the floor. In fact, if one were to sit on the floor, logically people would also put a mat to ensure it&rsquo;s free from touching the dirty surface.
Some even said that parents are being too demanding over this situation but in this context, Fadli voiced out stating that it&rsquo;s the matter of manners, decency and self-worth.
Ironically enough, this issue happens almost every Ramadhan. Usually during these events, people want to celebrate the festive season with orphans and those under privileged as they too should be able to celebrate like everyone else.
Here&rsquo;s some of the comments:

Fadli ended his social media post with a note that the culture of having banquets at schools and only celebrating the VVIPs should stop. Additionally, schools should put the effort in making the banquet more enjoyable for the students instead of neglecting them.
Hopefully in the future, organizers of such events will take this more seriously. In fact, no need for VVIP invites as the whole purpose is to celebrate the children.

Union Artisan Cafe is located on the ground floor of 1 Utama Shopping Centre. This hidden gem offers a cosy and relaxing ambience, an escapade from the hustle bustle of the city. It is a perfect place for teatime and meals to be enjoyed alone or with some company for some quality time.
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1651292750/unsigned/o2v2tsmfnycnccqncp6w.png" />
&nbsp;
The idea of this cafe went from neighbourhood-concepted cafe to cater the neighbourhood and working community, which has now expanded into brewing refined coffee, comfort food, and desserts as well.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1651292770/unsigned/uylcowuepx7bp00hjbdo.jpg" />
&nbsp;
Let&rsquo;s indulge in the food!
Pritti Angela had ordered some delicious cake, coffee and snacks off the menu!
Starting with the yumcha set (1 cake and 1 beverage):
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1651293208/unsigned/fdaascbep4reiguzf85y.png" />
&nbsp;
Chocolate With Salted Peanut Butter Cake + Hot Flat White (RM20)
The cake was divine. She described that it was moist with a balanced combination of sweet and salty. Whereas the coffee was skilfully designed by the barista, she complimented that it tasted just right!
Onto the snacks:
Deep Fried Cauliflower (RM16.90)
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1651293364/unsigned/nja1rvwmnesojo0t6orl.png" />
After sweet for sure comes savoury! If you are not a vegetable lover, this snack will change your mind. Fried until golden brown, it came with a dipping sauce. What a perfect combo right? She mentioned that she loves the sauce so much!

The Pastabilities Are Endless At La Risata, Ampang!

With modern times now, there&rsquo; been a lot of businesses being done fully online now and less people have been going to ATMs and using cash outside.
Businesses such as micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) should also adopt start adopting cashless transactions as it&rsquo;s fast + safe said Prime Minister Datuk Ismail Sabri Yaakob.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1650268399/unsigned/s515ljghlqrxw4aq3kuz.webp" />
&nbsp;
The Covid-19 pandemic had encouraged many methods of cashless payment and it&rsquo;s become common for many to not bring their wallets or cash out. In 2021 alone, ecash transactions alone amounted to RM50.5 Billion in comparison to RM29.6 Billion in 2020 he said.
&ldquo;This is the main reason why the ePemula programme is introduced. We want to encourage youth to embrace cashless transaction,&rdquo; he said when launching the ePemula initiative.
EPemula is another ecash programme set to benefit some two million youths and students in institutions of higher learning.
Under the programme, eligible youths between 18 and 20 as well as full-time students in institutions of higher learning will be given RM150 in ecash.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1650268411/unsigned/r7qbatwoxeu2qjrw1g7h.png" />
&nbsp;
Another factor for the introduction of the Epemula programme is to help ease the financial burden of the youth.
&ldquo;We hope youths will spend the credit given to them wisely and support local businesses, especially the micro, small and medium scale industry so that these businesses can recover.
&ldquo;With more businesses back on track, there will be more revenue for the government and more people, especially the B40 group, can be assisted,&rdquo; he added.
Youth is an important part of nation-building
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1650268424/unsigned/udwlcqcrbrzcpqazs411.jpg" />
&nbsp;
With many youths out there today, it&rsquo;s important to support them as they play a big role on how our country develops. Ismail Sabri also says that they need to be given opportunities to chart Malaysia&rsquo;s future.
The government will be drafting the National Youth Economic Empowerment Plan to further strengthen their roles in the development of the country.
Increasing number of businesses using ewallets
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1650268448/unsigned/y7bzv9untdxoozc8ko0z.webp" />
&nbsp;
Finance Minister Tengku Daruk Seri Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz mentioned that more shops have begun accepting payments via ewallets due to the pandemic.
Malaysia recorded a 60% increase in registrations for ecash, Duit Now and QR code transactions as of December 2021. Cashless transactions went up by 74.4% compared to 2020 as 1.1 billion such transactions were made in 2021.
Through the Epemula programme, Zafrul hopes that ecash payments will remain and support more digital financial initiatives.

In addition to going cashless, the ePemula programme was launched to enable youths to embrace more cashless transactions.

"Go Cashless!" Prime Minister Encourages Malaysians

It&rsquo;s been more than 2 years since the lockdown and things are still looking bad.
Malaysians are not the only one suffering from bad economy but in fact almost all of Asia and even other regions of the world are all suffering from the post pandemic phase.
If there&rsquo;s one thing that everyone can feel is the increase of goods whether it being daily necessities or even food.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1649913009/unsigned/st2qviicbul4x5hpiukq.jpg" />
&nbsp;
A famous hotpot restaurant in Beijing known as Ma Hong&rsquo;s Spicy Hotpot had been struggling to stay afloat since their opening in 2021. Due to the pandemic, the prices of beef had tripled and key ingredients now costing more than 50% of their original price.
"We sell it at the same price as before. Also with the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, everybody is hanging in there. It is the same all over Beijing. We are not the only restaurant suffering," said the owner of the restaurant.
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1649913055/unsigned/icomoa596jiayx7kkw4d.png" />
&nbsp;
Many Asian restaurants including street food hawkers are now having an issue if they should just take the hit of the higher cost or passing them on which could risk them losing loyal customers.
Ukraine &amp; Russia war affecting supply chain
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1649913078/unsigned/qowealpntzpzqhx9q8xf.webp" />
&nbsp;
With the war going on, it certainly didn&rsquo;t help the fact that the price of ingredients and materials had increased and affected the supply chain which was already struggling since the Covid-19 pandemic.
Let&rsquo;s put Asia to perspective, there are many stalls which sell delicious street food at an affordable price. It became popular to many households but with the price of goods increasing, many are feeling the pressure of expense usage.
In an interview with an owner of a biryani store in Kranchi, Pakistan, Mohammad Ilyas states that the price of a kilogram of the seasoned rice dish is costly as it&rsquo;s now 400 Pakistani rupees (~RM9.26).
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1649913096/unsigned/gxqvlnhldf6he5miquyt.jpg" />
&nbsp;
Ilyas also noted that some businesses are dealing with the pressure of cutting portion sizes due to the expensive cost. A dish which was meant to be affordable to many had inflated so much that the poor can&rsquo;t afford to eat it.
Meanwhile in Jakarta, a nasi goreng street vendor, Syahrul Zainullah had to unfortunately reduce the size of his servings instead of raising the price. He also didn&rsquo;t want to opt out for lower grade ingredients in fear of losing the taste that many like.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1649913109/unsigned/mu8xa2ndxbpgc0mwbwv1.jpg" />
&nbsp;
Meanwhile al the way up in South Korea, inflation of vegetables has been hitting many sellers hard. Choi Sun-hwa who&rsquo;s a 67-year-old kimchi shop owner had shared that she used to be able to get 10 heads of cabbage for a particular price and now with the inflation, she only received 7.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1649913136/unsigned/hfmasicmidfqlbd4aumg.jpg" />
&nbsp;
Kimchi is a spicy fermented cabbage which is a highly popular side dish in South Korea which is generally free with every meal at eateries. One customer at Chio&rsquo;s store even joked that they should rename kimchi to &ldquo;keum-chi&rdquo; as keum stands for gold in Korean.
If the price of goods keeps increasing, Choi says that she won&rsquo;t likely be able to continue running the business if she can&rsquo;t raise prices.
Change of eating habits
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1649913146/unsigned/ahjglyidmtovqt8lr1xo.jpg" />
&nbsp;
Back then, you&rsquo;ll likely see a lot of people going out to restaurants and enjoying a meal together with family and friends or perhaps maybe alone for some &ldquo;me time&rdquo;.
Due to the cost of goods being expensive, many have now opted to limit eating out and start cooking at home more. Some even comment the days where we can buy many items with RM150 at grocery stores and nowadays, you can barely get anything.
In fact, drinks are sometimes more expensive than food too which makes many people think twice before spending.
Honestly, I do hope that the economy would recover cause at this rate, fresh grads who just got jobs will really suffer to get their daily necessities especially if they live away from their parents. They&rsquo;ll need to think of rental, maintenance fees, petrol and many more things.

Due to the pandemic and war, many had resorted to either cutting their servings, increasing price or just trying to soldier through the inflation.

#Mahal : Inflation Of Goods Getting Out Of Hand?

Are you a crypto enthusiast? Well, it seems like there may be opportunities for you coming soon here in Malaysia.
Crypto.com which is a cryptocurrency exchange app which is based in Singapore appears to be expanding it&rsquo;s workforce into Malaysia. According to a report by Rnggt, the company had released several vacancies for a full-time position in their company on LinkedIn.
For those who don&rsquo;t know about crypto.com, their app serves as a one-stop platform for users to access, buy, manage and sell their different types of cryptocurrency. In fact, the company also offers users a Visa prepaid card of varying tiers which allows users to spend their cryptocurrency under the company&rsquo;s own CRO native token.
<img src="https://c.tenor.com/Cc2EQtVXcTUAAAAC/how-interesting-coffee.gif" />
&nbsp;
Recently, the app had launched their NFT Marketplace where users can showcase their artwork or even buy and sell items.
What are the available positions in the company?
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1648539118/unsigned/ftftrfnilzyspbfgjmud.jpg" />
&nbsp;
Currently, one of the higher positions in offer would be the General Manager position where they will have to plan out the company&rsquo;s strategy, introduction and many more. Aside from that, there are management-based roles, talent acquisition, android app development, creative growth and many more.
On a side note, there&rsquo;s no saying if the jobs will require you to be in office as of now as we don&rsquo;t know if the company plans to open up a local office. The current jobs on offer are all listed as a remote job so you can be anywhere to do it as long as you have decent internet connection.
<img src="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/fd/a7/c0/fda7c018db9a09ff0ed234957e9b25b9.gif" />

It does look like the company is really growing in the local scene and it will likely be competing against many other digital assets exchanges which have already been established in Malaysia.
I mean, look at them. Their company had also been spotted as one of the global partners in Formula 1 which is a billion-dollar industry.

Crypto.com Is Entering The Malaysian Market & They Are Looking To Hire

Have you ever questioned yourself lately on why you&rsquo;re going broke so fast even if you do have a stable job?
Well, the unfortunate truth is that the cost of living has been going up over the years and we can&rsquo;t do much about it. Like here&rsquo;s a reality check, we are paying more for a drink than our food now.
<img src="https://media1.giphy.com/media/yWTrzwWVS9x1zHPIwT/giphy.gif?cid=790b761156677b06fbef01122236887b59081065c7708254&amp;rid=giphy.gif&amp;ct=g" alt="Season 4 Vegan GIF by The Office" />
&nbsp;
Yeah, let that thought sink in. Half the time we go out to eat, our drink is either half the price if not more than the price of some of our food.
With the rising cost of living, Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob had announced a new policy to help those working. The minimum wage of workers will now be increased to RM1,500 a month. According to him, the new minimum salary will be raised will come into effect on 1 May and details will be finalised soon.
Human Resource Ministry and the Entrepreneur Development and Cooperatives Ministry will be holding discussions to identify the small and micro businesses who can&rsquo;t afford to pay the minimum RM1,500.
So far, no conditions have been revealed yet, but these selected small businesses may be able to &ldquo;delay&rdquo; the payment of the new minimum wage. Judging by this statement, it suggests that there will be a policy that will be implemented for this issue.
What is the rough usage of families per month if you&rsquo;re living in the city?

&nbsp;
According to Bank Negara&rsquo;s living wage estimates, the above is the rough wages used for each of these categories for someone living in Kuala Lumpur back in 2016.
If a single adult needed 2,700 back in 2016, imagine now fast forwarding 6 years later. I&rsquo;m sure it&rsquo;s increased.
Just last week, Human Resources Minister M. Saravanan revealed that the minimum wage increase will be placed &ldquo;soon&rdquo; instead of waiting till the end of the year. Although this is good, not everyone is keen on the increase such as the Malaysian Employers Federation (EPF) as they claim that this is only beneficial for foreign workers in the country.
For those who didn&rsquo;t know, the National Wages Council is required to review the minimum salary every two years and changed will be subjected based off discussions. Back in 2012, the minimum wage was set at RM900 and in 2020 a revision was made to hike it to RM1,200 in 56 cities and towns. Unfortunately, even with the hike, some cities had remained at RM1,100.
Sometimes, I&rsquo;m pretty sure a lot of people question the government on how they look at the price of minimum wage. They clearly know that prices of items are going up but how high can it go? Even our vegetables are expensive now. 
Aside from the increase in minimum wages, do you think the government should also look at the cost of items now as it&rsquo;s getting way too expensive. Let us know your thoughts!

With the minimum pay increasing, do you think that the ministry should also look into the reason behind the price hike of goods as well?

Ministry To Enforce RM1,500 Minimum Wage Starting 1 May 2022

Are you someone who&rsquo;s very into the whole cryptocurrency scene? If you are, then you&rsquo;ve probably heard of Binance who is the world&rsquo;s leading crypto exchange.
If you didn&rsquo;t already know, they are making a return to the Malaysian market with a strategic stake in the country&rsquo;s regulated digital asset trading platform MX Global.
Binance and Cuscapi Berhad acquired a key stake in MX Global who are one of four recognized market operators &ndash; digital asset exchange license by the Securities Commission (SC) in Malaysia.

<script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Presence all over the world and even Asia
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1646277209/unsigned/wdzhquh7rgmk8hk53oeb.jpg" />
&nbsp;
The leading crypto exchange aims to expand the sustainable growth of the crypto market in Southeast Asia. Meanwhile, MX Global aims to become a leading liquidity hub in the region and expand their market with their new partnership.
A thing to note is the difficulty to mitigate regulatory compliance requirements in different regions. Due to this, Binance had slew of partnerships and it reflects a pattern of sorts. Back in July 2021, crypto exchange services in Malaysia were restricted as the SC said that these exchanges could not comply with the regulatory laws.
Partnership helps to understand local regulatory approach
&ldquo;This is part of Binance&rsquo;s initiatives to cooperate with regulators. By working with regulated platforms, we are supporting local representatives to further expand their businesses while they stay compliant,&rdquo; said a spokesperson from Binance.
While Binance reopens in Malaysia and needs to comply with the regulatory laws, it&rsquo;s a while different ball game happening in Singapore. Binance had withdrew their crypto license application a week before announcing an 18% stake in the private stock exchange.

&nbsp;
Even in the UK, Binance was banned but they have now managed access to the payment method after announcing their partnership with PaySafe.
Similarly, crypto exchange is suffering the same issue in Thailand as operations had shut down in July 2021. But in 2022, thanks to a partnership with the country&rsquo;s Gulf Energy Development PCL, they made a return into the Thai market.
Is it safe to trade with Biannce?
In short, yes it should be safe for you to trade your crypto with Binance.
Back in 2021, they faced an issue with regulatory warnings and service restrictions from many countries due to their regulations. But with the introduction of partnering with other third-party companies, they have finally mended their regulatory relationship with other countries.
Hopefully this round with proper partners, the trade for cryptocurrencies will be smooth. But the real question now is how stable will the crypto market be in the upcoming future? What&rsquo;s your opinion on this? Let us know in the comments!
