An 11-year-old boy has died after being swept into a retention pond from a drain at Taman Bidara Permai, Melaka, following heavy rain yesterday.

Meanwhile, in Ara Damansara, a man in his 50s sustained waist injuries after falling into a 3m deep hole caused by soil subsidence at Sri Meranti Apartment.

As of 9.30am, over 32,000 people have been displaced nationwide due to the floods.

Why are we not surprised. The cruel forced eviction & destruction of the Bajau Laut people's home & way of life is all about money & big businesses. So who cares about the human rights & dignity of marginalised communities. https://t.co/VnFx4mH3bj

HARI KETIGA

Di manakah mereka mahu tidur malam ini?

Di jalan raya?

Perobohan rumah tanpa penempatan semula tidak selesaikan mana-mana masalah yang dihadapi oleh rakyat Malaysia.

Punyalah rajin Taman-Taman Sabah, hari cuti pun kerja overtime bakar dan robohkan rumah orang Bajau Laut stateless.

Tapi mereka kan penduduk haram, kenapa tak patut dirobohkan?

A Year 5 student, who suffered a heatstroke after standing under the hot sun for over 2 hours, has been assessed as a person with disabilities (OKU) by Ampang Hospital, reports FMT.

A teacher allegedly forced him to stand under the sun as punishment.

A lethal massacre is unfolding against displaced civilians near the UNRWA logistics base in Tal Al-Sultan, located in the western part of Rafah. Israeli aircraft have shelled several tents in this area, resulting in numerous martyrs and casualties. Many have been transported to the Tal Al-Sultan clinic and the field hospitals near the sea of Rafah. At present, numerous individuals remain stuck under the flames and in the tents destroyed by the bombardment.

It is important to note that this location was classified by the Israeli occupation as a humanitarian area, and citizens were coerced into evacuating to it.

While I am a proponent of flexibility so that we can have a career and family, this further pushes women into the box of unpaid caregiving role.

Ask yourself how you would feel about a country starving you and your children by stopping food at the border, bombing the food airdropped to bypass the blockade and shooting at people queueing for the few aid trucks allowed in.

[Dharrnesha 🏴 @dharrnesha]

Disappointed with leaders who should know better than to not listen to our minority sentiments when something is offensive, and offer a non-apology.

You’re now an enabler.

[Anwar Ibrahim @anwaribrahim]

Saya bukanlah individu yang suka bermain sentimen menghina kaum dan agama sehingga mencetuskan salah faham melibatkan mana-mana pihak.

Sewaktu “Sesi Dialog Perdana Menteri bersama Ketua Pengarang serta Pengarang-Pengarang Kanan Media Elektronik, Media Cetak dan Dalam Talian” hari ini, saya singgung dan jelaskan perkara tersebut supaya salah faham yang berlaku, dinoktahkan sebaiknya.

2. Durham Cathedral, United Kingdom

Britain's finest Norman Cathedral, which still dominates the city of Durham with its massive 11th century drum pillars and sturdy towers.

As monolithic now as it was one thousand years ago, and still home to the tombs of Cuthbert and Bede.

@SuriaKLCCMall - seeing the Xmas tree being set up on Deepavali eve is frankly more disrespectful than malls that have skipped straight to Xmas decorations. At least there is no facade there.
