Jarang nak puji influencer secara direct macam ni. Tapi mula dine in buka puasa jam 8 malam supaya tak kalut semayang maghrib ni wajib kena puji.
Baarakallahufik!
Fun fact of the day:
Douglas Lim father is a retired RMAF A4 skyhawk fighter pilot. He named Douglas Lim due to? You guess it right, the builder of the A4 skyhawk, Mcdonald Douglas 😲
People see Khairul Aming’s Rembayung today and think it happened overnight.
But the part most people miss is this:
It took Khairul Aming ten years to go from online to offline.
Ten years before a restaurant even made sense.
A decade of cooking in front of a camera.
A decade of trial, error, fixing, improving.
A decade of earning trust without asking for anything back.
He didn’t rush to open a café in year one.
He didn’t force a physical business just because he had followers.
He waited until the relationship was strong enough…
until the audience became a community…
until the brand could stand on its own.
That’s why when Rembayung was announced today, people showed amazing support.
Not because of hype, but because the trust was already there.
Ten years of trust. Ten years of consistency.
Ten years of hard work until the moment was right.
There’s something powerful about that.
Sometimes the right move isn’t speed.
It’s patience.
It’s letting your work grow roots before it grows branches.
Congratulations @khairulaming!
Some interesting facts. During the Japanese Occupation, Malaysia was force to adjust into GMT +9 (Tokyo time). Post war, the time was reverted back to GMT +7:30. Not GMT+7, so we were 30 minutes ahead of Indonesia and 30 minutes behind East Malaysia.
This is very interesting topic to discuss.
(1) If we were to moved back to GMT +7, we would have more time in the morning and lesser time to spend in the evening. This would mean sunrise would be at 6am and sunset would be at 6pm.
Not a fan of PAS, but this is the right thing to do. Malaysia’s time is a bit off from what it naturally should be after Tun M decided to move us to GMT +8. Because of that, our mornings starts earlier than the sun, and we feel like we’re always rushing.
(3) Switching to GMT +7 would also create 1 hour time difference between Peninsular and East Malaysia. This would disrupt businesses that operates in both regions and would lead to major confusion for the public.
Someone once told me that if you’re driving 40km/h and look at your phone for 5 seconds, you basically just drove about 50m blindfolded. Kinda wild when you think about it.
