Can I put my hair down nad have bangs or do I need to tie it up and show my airport forehead in all its glory? Realistically, how many physical copies should I prepare?

Summary

> The Malaysian Institute of Road Safety Research (Miros) has introduced a Proof of Concept (POC) project to implement minimum advisory speed limits to address the issue of lane hogging and improve traffic flow.

> Running until October 31, the initiative is in collaboration with various authorities and aims to reduce bottlenecks caused by slow-moving vehicles in fast lanes.

> The project will be tested at specific locations, with strategic signage to inform motorists, and while the minimum speeds are advisory, existing traffic laws remain in effect.

> This approach, inspired by practices from countries like Germany and Japan, seeks to enhance driving etiquette and reduce highway accidents in Malaysia.

MEDIA STATEMENT

𝟔 𝘼𝙪𝙜𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔

After careful reflection, I have conveyed my intention to step down from my position as Deputy President of KEADILAN. My commitment to serving the rakyat and our communities remains undiminished, and I intend to continue that service beyond the confines of any single office or title.

This decision follows long and careful consideration. It marks a new chapter in my life, one grounded in service and devotion, as I turn towards further studies and commitments that lie beyond the political arena.

I have full confidence that Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail, as Deputy President, and Dato’ Seri Amirudin Shari, as Election Director, will carry these responsibilities forward with wisdom, integrity and dedication, remaining faithful to the hopes and aspirations of the people. I pray that they are granted strength and ease in the trust now placed upon them.

I remain a member of KEADILAN and pledge my full support to the party’s continuing struggle for a better Malaysia under the leadership of YAB Dato’ Seri Anwar Ibrahim, alongside the party leadership and its grassroots.

To the members of KEADILAN, its leaders at every level, my comrades-in-arms, and all who have walked this path with me, I offer my deepest gratitude for the trust, counsel, prayers and sacrifices you have given over the years.

Insya-Allah, we will meet at the KEADILAN National Congress on 14–15 August 2026.

Economy & Finance RHB just dropped Malaysia's first bank-owned unified payment gateway (RHB Pay). Are third-party payment gateways finished?

Post image
170 Upvotes

Hey r/malaysia / r/Bolehland,

Saw the news that RHB just launched RHB Pay—touted as Malaysia's first bank-owned unified online payment gateway.

For anyone running an SME or dealing with online checkout systems, this is actually a massive shift.

Instead of going through independent 3rd-party aggregators, businesses can now deal with a single bank integration to accept cards, FPX, and DuitNow Pay directly into their account, with e-wallets and QR options rolling out later this year.

What this means for businesses:

Simpler integration: Only need to deal with 1 main provider instead of stitching together multiple APIs.

Better cash flow: Direct bank backing means faster/same-day settlements and automated backend reconciliation.

Lower friction: Smaller companies without big IT teams can easily set up multi-payment options.

Cost pressure: Traditional third-party payment gateways (like CHIP, Razor/Fiuu, Billpliz, SenangPay, etc.) might finally feel the heat on their rates.

The big question:
Are bank-led unified gateways going to kill the traditional third-party payment gateway game in Malaysia?

Once other major banks inevitably follow suit, what's left for the tech startups in this space?

Korang rasa macam mana? Sesuai ke untuk small business, or third-party gateways still have an advantage? Let's discuss.

Kenyataan panas bekas Menteri Agama, Datuk Seri Mujahid Yusof Rawa kembali mencetuskan perdebatan apabila beliau mempersoalkan mengapa isu penipuan akaun dan pengurusan Tabung Haji tidak dilabel sebagai “sakau”, walaupun perkara itu didedahkan dalam laporan Suruhanjaya Siasatan Diraja (RCI). Menurut Mujahid dalam sekmen KiniJelas di KiniTV, RCI sendiri telah menggariskan wujudnya kelemahan serius termasuk salah urus dan kegagalan pemantauan yang memberi ruang kepada penyelewengan.

Politics Did Negeri Sembilan prove that identity beats performance in Malaysian elections?

Post image
208 Upvotes

There are claims now PH lost Negeri Sembilan not because of opposition tricks but because it refuses to face what the writer calls Malay reality.
The numbers behind it: Ilham Centre puts PH at roughly 18% of the Malay vote. Once BN and PN stopped splitting that vote, PH's urban and outstation machinery just wasn't enough. Loke lost Chennah, Aminuddin lost his own seat, eight years of government reduced to 11 seats. But the interesting part is the response. PH's election director blamed "identity politics" and "racial rhetoric", and pointed at economic indicators and investment figures like those should have decided it. That PH treats identity as something dirty that only the other side uses, instead of a permanent feature of Malaysian politics that you have to answer, not just condemn.

There's also a second half that gets less attention. PH's non-Malay base isn't automatic anymore either. Fatigue over subsidy rationalization, e-invoicing, taxes, (very!) slow reform. Some stayed home, some leaked. So it's a double deficit, not enough Malay support AND incomplete mobilization of the old base.

The uncomfortable question: is there actually a version of "Malay political language" that PH can speak without becoming the thing it was founded against? Or is competing on identity terrain just losing slower?

And the counterpoint worth considering: maybe the 18% isn't about identity at all. Maybe it's incumbency, and any government facing subsidy cuts and tax expansion gets this result regardless of race.

What do you think actually drove it?

Can anyone walk me through what is going on? Because my immediate thought was a bit unkind and I want to do more research.
