The atmosphere in Kuala Lumpur and Selangor. Can hardly see the morning sun, in a cloudless sky. Filthy air, unbreathable and health hazard. Yet, ordinary citizens continue to pay tax? What a joke!! How about some rebates?

A sad day today for Malaysia. The passing of an icon. Tun Dr Hasmah, one of Malaysia's earliest doctors, a truly elegant, charming and gracious lady. We will always remember her.

#Haze getting sick (literally) of the haze situation here. Failed governance and monitoring of corporates. Taxes wasted on politicians. Speaking of house arrests, the best option now is to lockdown and stay indoors. Avoid non-essential expenditure.

@CelcomDigi service has been shoddy and unreliable despite exorbitant fees and charges. I am seriously considering switching to other SP's. Sad, considering I have been with Celcom since 1997. But looks like time to switch.

#ThePitt Peak television. Right up there as one of the most important TV series in history. Along with #TheWire these highlight the power of the documentary/drama genre. Engaging, entertaining; triggering discussions and debates. And now back to The Sopranos!

Mind-blowing discovery!

Nearly 30 ancient inscriptions in Tamil-Brahmi (plus some Prakrit and Sanskrit) have been identified inside the rock-cut tombs of Egypt’s Valley of the Kings, dating to the 1st–3rd centuries CE.

Scholars Charlotte Schmid (EFEO, Paris) and Ingo Strauch (University of Lausanne) documented them across six tombs in the Theban Necropolis. These are art left by visitors, mostly following the common ancient practice (seen with Greek art too) of carving names on walls.

The standout name? Cikai Koṟraṉ, inscribed eight times across five tombs, sometimes high up (4 meters!) near entrances. The name has Tamil roots: “koṟṟaṉ” links to victory/slaying (like Chera warrior goddess Koṟṟavai and kingly titles), with parallels in Sangam literature (e.g., Piṭtāṅkoṟṟaṉ in Purananooru) and other Egyptian finds like Berenike port sherds.

Other names: Kopāṉ varata kantan (“Kopāṉ came and saw”), Cātaṉ, Kiraṉ, many point to southern India/Tamilagam, especially the Malabar Coast.

This pushes beyond known Red Sea ports (like Berenike), proving ancient Tamil/Indian traders, explorers, or travellers ventured deep into Egypt’s interior during the height of Indo-Roman trade. They weren’t just merchants at ports; some were tourists/heritage visitors leaving their mark in pharaohs’ tombs!

A game-changer for understanding ancient global connections and civilisations, Sangam-era maritime reach, and India’s place in the ancient world economy.

RIP Robert Duvall. A true icon of American Cinema!

[Cinema Tweets @CinemaTweets1]

Robert Duvall’s #Oscar nomination for The Judge at age 84 made Duvall the oldest male actor to receive a nomination in the Best Supporting Actor category at the time before Christopher Plummer was nominated at age 86 for All the Money in the World. Duvall’s longevity was insane.

Physicians should pay close attention to what launched this week in healthcare AI.

These aren’t chatbots—they’re HIPAA-ready tools being embedded into clinical, admin, and payer workflows.

If we don’t help shape how they’re used, they’ll be shaped around us.

Cyclone SENYAR is such a historic and unprecedented storm. Here are some of the interesting facts regarding this extremely rare system.

• The first tropical cyclone in recorded history to form in the Strait of Malacca.
• The first tropical cyclone to have been named in the Strait of Malacca by the India Meteorological Department (IMD)
• The second most-southerly named storm by IMD since naming storms in the North Indian Ocean (IMD) began in 2004.
• The first tropical cyclone to make landfall in #Sumatra in the month of November in recorded history.
• The first named landfalling tropical cyclone in Indonesia in the NIO basin.
• The strongest landfalling tropical cyclone in the Sumatra on record, surpassing #Vamei in 2001.
• The second landfalling tropical cyclone in the Northern Hemisphere part of Indonesia in history.
• The first tropical cyclone to make landfall in #Indonesia since Lili in 2019.
• The first tropical cyclone to make landfall in Indonesia for the month of November since 03S in 2001.

Forecast:
• The first tropical cyclone to make landfall in the western part of Peninsular #Malaysia in history.
• The third tropical cyclone to make landfall in the whole Malaysia in history - after Greg (1996) and Vamei (2001) (NOAA archives).

High five (jazz hands) to all the school teachers out there. Ryland Grace is the protagonist we are all rooting for, solving one problem after another! What an adventure!

Finished @andyweirauthor 's Project Hail Mary. A thrilling read, right up there with Rendezvous With Rama. Explorative science fiction. Complicated science made easy to understand and engaging.

[Guna @drsargunan]

Finished the book and then watched the trailer, very excited for the movie. Add to this I have also completed the mind blowing 3 Body Problem (all 3 books). I highly recommend all these books.

As part of the older generation of doctors, I consider myself very fortunate. Opportunities were in abundance and cost of living manageable. But for the next gen, I won't blame them if they took this opportunity..

Tun Abdullah Ahmad Badawi

A gentleman, a humble man, and a great administrator. In his heart was the well-being of every Malaysian citizen. A true statesman.
He was the best prime minister of our times.
Terima kasih Pak Lah.
