In 2009, Elon Musk offered Malaysia 10% of SpaceX.

Malaysia said no.

Rewind to where SpaceX was that year. Three straight Falcon 1 failures. Cash almost gone. Grown engineers in tears after the third rocket broke apart. The company was one more failure away from finished.

Then a Malaysian satellite changed the story. RazakSAT, built by Malaysia's ATSB, became SpaceX's first paying commercial customer. The fifth and final Falcon 1 carried it to orbit on 14 July 2009, and that payment helped Musk make payroll at the worst possible moment.

Here is the part almost no one knows. According to Dr Ahmad Sabirin Arshad, the ATSB chief who brokered the deal, Musk offered Malaysia an equity stake in return. A thank you to the one customer who believed when no one else would. Ten percent. The government turned it down. Najib Razak was the prime minister then.

As we all know it SpaceX went public in the largest IPO in history, the 10% pre dilution would be worth more than 200 billion dollars today.

Malaysia booked the launch with Elon, but rejected his biggest gift.

Same guy, facilitating (willingly or not) one of many attempts to whitewash 1MDB.

I was in the audience that night, two months before Najib was kicked out at GE14.

2. Talk is cheap, almost surely cheaper than even Sunway's offer for IJM.

Nestle just lost 413,793 KitKat bars. Someone stole them off a truck heading from their factory in central Italy to Poland, about 1,300 km away. Roughly $1 million in chocolate. The truck, the bars, all of it, just gone.

A European Parliament study puts cargo theft costs across Europe at €8.2 billion a year. That works out to about €2.5 million worth of goods disappearing from trucks and warehouses every 24 hours.

The industry group TAPA tracked 157,421 cargo thefts across 129 countries between 2022 and 2024. Only 6% of those included how much was actually taken, and that 6% alone added up to €2.7 billion. The real number is way bigger.

Germany gets hit the hardest. DHL's own data shows that a truckload is stolen every 20 minutes there, costing roughly €2.2 billion a year. The fastest-growing method is "phantom carriers," where criminal groups register fake trucking companies with forged documents, show up at warehouses with legit-looking paperwork, load the cargo, and drive off. No weapons, no break-ins. Just forged IDs and a clipboard. The German Insurance Association logged 88 phantom carrier cases in the first seven months of 2025, matching the total for the previous year.

Food is the most-stolen category in Europe, accounting for 10-20% of all cargo thefts. Chocolate is a top target because it doesn't spoil, everyone wants it, and it sells fast on unofficial markets. 20 tonnes of Nutella and Kinder Eggs were stolen in Germany in 2017. A crime ring that moved 287 tonnes of Swiss chocolate worth $8 million over the course of 2014. 20 tonnes of Milka were taken from an Austrian factory in 2019 using forged pickup papers.

Timing makes this one sting. Cocoa went from about $2,400 per ton three years ago to over $12,600 in late 2024. Prices have dropped to around $5,000-$6,000 in early 2026, but that's still double the historical average. In Poland, where these bars were headed, chocolate retail prices jumped 32.6% last year according to EU data. The product is worth stealing right now more than at almost any point in the past decade.

Nestlé says each bar has a scannable code that routes back to the company. Decent tracking. But when €2.5 million in cargo disappears from European supply chains every single day, 413,793 KitKat bars are a rounding error.

@iPoopBased @grok is this true?

Stop buying electrolyte drinks. This is all you need.

Most store-bought options are mostly sugar, dyes, and marketing. Your body actually only needs a few simple things for proper hydration support:

• water
• sodium
• glucose
• a little potassium

My simple homemade electrolyte drink:
1 quart filtered water
½ tsp sea salt
1–2 tsp honey (or sugar)
Juice of ½ lemon

The sodium helps your body retain fluid.
The glucose helps your intestines absorb sodium and water more efficiently.
The lemon adds flavor and a small boost of potassium.

Penggemar kicap soya Hup Teck dikejutkan pada bulan lepas dengan berita penutupan kilang tersebut yang telah beroperasi selama 111 tahun. Walaupun ramai rasa rugi dengan kehilangan legasi pembuatan kicap tradisional ini, pemilik kilang itu berkata dia langsung tidak menyesal dengan keputusannya.

Low Bak Tong kini ingin membuka muka surat baharu pada usia 72 tahun. Ini kisahnya.
