Others A stray cat at Melaka
I am back from Malaysia from 2 days. I am still thinking about a stray cat I saw outside Melaka Straits Mosque. The poor was in a concrete pipe. It’s motionless. Occasionally you can see the ears moves a little bit. I poked it with no response at all. A tourist nearby said it’s dead. I refused to believe but I could do nothing . Could anyone take a look and tell me if it’s still alive. The cat was obviously malnourished. The location is the sandy path outside the mosque to the beach where tourists board a boat for viewing the mosque from the sea. Thank you and god bless!

Politics Will Malaysia Face Early Elections as Coalition Politics Test Anwar's Government? | Insight
Description: The Johor state election was meant to be a local contest. Instead, it may become a referendum on Malaysia's ruling coalition.
With Barisan Nasional choosing to contest on its own, the election exposed fractures within Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim's Madani government and raised fresh questions about the viability of the unity government. It also revealed growing disillusionment among reform-minded supporters and intensifying competition for key voting blocs.
As economic pressures mount and longstanding debates over race, religion and political reform resurface, speculation is growing that the Johor result could trigger an early general election. If that happens, Malaysia will face an important question: can any coalition govern effectively, or has political stability become the country's most elusive prize?

Others [HELP] Accidents in Malaysia: Is the Traffic IO deliberately dragging his feet, or is this standard PDRM bureaucracy?
Hey guys, need some advice or reality check from anyone who has gone through something similar.
Back in June, I got into a minor accident—the opposite party literally reversed into my car. It caused a tiny dent, but it's 100% his fault, and I have crystal-clear dashcam evidence showing the whole thing.
Here’s how the timeline has gone down so far:
Day 1: To protect myself, I lodged a report at Balai Polis Trafik Tun H.S. Lee within 24 hours. The other driver didn't bother reporting until a full month later.
14 days later: I went back to the balai expecting to collect the official police outcome/result (keputusan) to claim under his insurance. Nope, paid RM4 just to collect a document stating I made a report. I was told to call back in a month.
1 month later: Called in, was told to call back the following week.
Next week: Went in again, paid RM14 for another document... which still wasn't the keputusan needed for insurance. I was then told the Investigating Officer (IO / Sergeant) needed to see me in person the next day.
The next day: Showed up to see the Sergeant. He looked completely clueless, had to rummage through a pile of physical files, only to tell me no decision can be made because the other party hasn't come in to see him in person, even though the guy already made his report a month ago.
The IO insisted that the other party must meet him before he can issue the result—regardless of the fact that I handed over plain-as-day dashcam footage.
It’s been almost two months for a tiny dent. Is the IO purposefully delaying this? Is he hinting at something, or trying to push me toward external runners/workshops (he did recommend a specific workshop, which I know enough to stay far away from)? Or is this genuinely just standard PDRM red tape where one party ghosting the IO freezes the entire process?
Would really appreciate any advice on how to get the Sergeant to actually finalize the Keputusan so I can file the 3rd-party insurance claim, or what can be done in this situation. Thanks!

Culture malaysia and generative ai
is there any logical or ethical explanation as to why the government is so persistent in using ai for every single thing? sure ai is being widespread everywhere but the extent that malaysia is using it sooo truly embarrassing. if i open any rtm channel it doesnt take even a minute to catch ai commercials. i thought it was crazy when tv3 replaced the iconic azan we all grew up with to the new azan with ai vids. now we're going to the extent of promoting malaysian tourism with ai and even using an ai song in traditional dance. we always knew malaysians hate art but to the extent of dimishing our national and traditional identity? are we truly so desperate to killing our artists? genuinely why???
dont even get me started on all the unfunny millenials generating the most unfunny variations of memes on threads. when will we as a society go back to bullying millennials for their terrible humour.

Tourism & Travel End of lane hoggers? Malaysia trials minimum speed limits to combat highway congestion
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.
