Apparently this is a photo of actual 'rooms' rented out to tenants in Cheras for RM300/month. Literally a crawl space. And not one of those trendy capsule hotels either.
Nga Kor Ming said they're the size of graves, big enough just for coffins. 💀

Whereas the right of people of Sarawak and Sabah were side-lined for the past sixty years, We, the people of Sarawak and Sabah declare the following:
1. The dream and promise of the Federation of Malaysia for the people of Sabah and Sarawak must be fulfilled without delay.
2. We reaffirm Sabah and Sarawak as equal partners with Malaya in the formation of the Federation of Malaysia.

4. We reaffirm that Sabah and Sarawak each possess exclusive territorial rights over the resources that are within their own territorial boundaries.
5. We reaffirm that every community in Sabah and Sarawak the right to their distinct unique cultural and ceremonial expression, identity and language.

My advice to Malaysia is as long as migrant workers are not given equal labour protections & benefits, our labour market will capitalise on this and “exploit”. This results in poor labour deals & options for Malaysian workers. So we must fight for ALL workers together.

Normally I wont comment related to Christian and Methodist.... Can you imagine to lose the only centre that Orang Asli have in Kampar.. and now the Persidangan Misi Sengoi (PMS) headed by non-Orang Asli Superintedent.. we have go backward now 👍
There are bad faith actors on all sides of this conflict. Why I respect human rights groups like @hrw is that they call out abuses wherever they see them. Today they have 2 reports, suggesting Hamas committed war crimes *and* that Israel’s Gaza blockade is also a war crime. 🧵
For immediate release
Kean Wong’s arrest, after 3 years from the time the book was banned, demonstrates the State’s concerted effort to suppress the public’s ability to both inform and to speak out without fear of censorship.

Apostates in this country are still subject to the religion’s rules, it’s not possible (or safe) for people to renounce their faith. Makes sense to be bitter.
A genuinely progressive government would get rid of the Printing Presses and Publications Act as part of a serious indicator of its desire to commit to real reforms, especially in media freedom.
Let the Semenanjung Malays and Indonesian Javanese fight over Batik.

Delighted to report that @kumpool_my worked perfectly today.
It was an 8 min wait, but that was ok since the app showed me where the driver was and how long to expect.
Coz of Kumpool, I walked an extra 500m and saved RM5. 😊
