[Rafizi Ramli @rafiziramli]

Saya ulas sikit bab “Rafizi seorang saja betul” ini. Nampaknya cara saya bekerja pun dah jadi topik mesyuarat orang lain.

Dalam tugasan atau mesyuarat, saya tanya tiga perkara: apa yang perlu dibuat, siapa yang akan buat, dan bila boleh siap.

Minggu depan, kita semak kemajuan. Kalau berbulan-bulan pandangan yang sama diulang tetapi kerja masih tak bergerak, sampai bila kita mahu terus bertepuk tangan?

Masa itu satu-satunya aset yang tak boleh diganti. Lagi lama kita berlengah, lagi lama orang menunggu masalah mereka diselesaikan.

Sebab itu saya hargai pandangan yang berfakta, disertai kesanggupan untuk turun buat kerja. Idea yang baik perlu ada orang yang sanggup melaksanakannya dan bertanggungjawab terhadap hasilnya.

Yang peliknya, ada yang begitu teliti mengira bila saya senyum dan bila saya tak senyum. Alangkah baik kalau ketelitian yang sama digunakan untuk menyemak kerja yang belum siap.

Kalau ada kelemahan pada kerja saya, tunjukkan. Kita boleh bincang perkara yang nyata: apa yang tak menjadi, apa yang perlu diperbaiki, dan bagaimana nak buat lebih baik.

Itu perbincangan yang berbaloi dengan masa semua orang.

Rakyat sedang menunggu hasil. Kita pula masih sibuk membincangkan air muka.

A beautiful country with great potential yet infested with poor governance. As your neighbour we Malaysian understand it too well.
To the brave Indonesian people out there I express my support and best wishes!! Take down the corrupted regime!!!

ジャカルタで大規模なデモ🇮🇩🔥
日本の皆さん。
これが僕が12年間人生を賭けて戦ってきた国です。

12年間ポテンシャルの塊と言われてきた国です。

泣けてくる。。。

もう諦めて帰ったほうが良いでしょうか🥹

いつもは明るくて優しいインドネシアの国民が怒ってます。

でも怒ってるのが、次の時代を担う若者達だから。

この国の人達にお世話になったから。

夢と希望を捨てずに、最後までこの国で頑張ります💪

いつかきっと僕が教育した子供達が

もっと良い国を作ってくれると信じて🇮🇩❤️

THE CEASEFIRE HAS COMMENCED
The ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia took effect at 4:00am Moscow time on October 27, 2026. 

Timing was accelerated two days ahead of schedule to protect the safety of civilians and to facilitate the delivery of critical humanitarian aid. The ceasefire’s geographic area has expanded beyond Oleshky, within the Kherson Region, to provide safe passage for the humanitarian convoys.    

General Valery Gerasimov, Joint Chief of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces has confirmed.

🚨TW: Distressing Content

Supporters and family of Noorizwan Zulkefly staged a march from Taman Tugu to Parliament, chanting "Tangkap pembunuh" and demanding justice for his death in custody.

Meanwhile, the IPCC said its investigation into alleged misconduct surrounding the case was ongoing, stressing that no wrongdoing had been established so far.

It's not something I enjoy to read nor repost.
Their voice is small, yet, on this platform at least.
They're fighting for an important cause.
Human rights violation continues to be a serious issue in Malaysia.
Showing solidarity here. It's the least I can do

Sebentar tadi, gabungan masyarakat sivil, anak muda dan mahasiswa hadir memberikan sokongan bersama keluarga arwah Noorizwan bagi menyerahkan memorandum ke Parlimen Negara.

Semoga keadilan milik arwah, keluarga dan rakyat.

Much agree

[James Chin @jameschin110]

Many of you know I avoid AA like the plague. Their service is terrible; getting a refund or using their credits is about as pleasant as having diarrhea.
I was recently forced to fly AA Indonesia simply because it had the most convenient timing for my trip to Jakarta. I was pleasantly surprised to find this prayer card.
Indonesia has plenty of problems; corruption that is worse than Malaysia’s, poverty, and ethnic unrest among them. But on the issue of religion, they are ahead of Malaysia.
If this card appeared on an AA Malaysia flight, there would be demonstrations at KLIA. Yet we all know there is more than one religion in Malaysia. Agree?

Elon has repeatedly called for peace, and his message remains the same. The killing must stop.

"I have no respect for the warmongers, and the war profiteers and those who want the war to continue forever. There must be peace. It is time for the slaughter of young men to stop."

[BLACK DUMPLING™ @BlackDumpling]

If you're wondering why it's so important to Elon that Starlink not be used for military purposes... I suspect it's two fold:

1. Because he's not a fan of killing people.

2. Because it turns Starlink into a legitimate military target.

The "It's a public utility" argument evaporates once it's being used to target and kill soldiers.

Elon Musk does not owe the Ukrainian people millions of dollars worth of satellite that the Russian government will blow out of the sky with complete impunity.

[Skscartoon @skscartoon]

When Elon gave Starlink to Ukraine, it was clear the system was intended for civilian & defensive purposes only;
Using it offensively would be like turning a flak jacket into a sui**de vest.

In New Zealand, native Māori are protesting against Islamic immigration

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Correct.

Using Starlink, a civilian commercial service, for offensive drone strikes to kill people has never been allowed, nor should it be.

Starshield, a different system, is controlled by the US government. What they decide to do is up to them.

Ukraine military violated Starlink terms of service and used it for offensive drone strikes to kill people. That loophole was closed last week.

Starlink remains critical to the defense of Ukraine, as it is the only system that cannot be jammed or blown up, at least for now. Were Starlink to be turned off, the Ukrainian front line would collapse immediately. This is NOT a threat, it is simply a statement of fact.

Starlink was also crucial to preventing Russia from overrunning Ukraine in the early days of the war, as all other means of communication were destroyed or jammed by Russia.

SpaceX has done more to defend Ukraine than any private company on Earth BY FAR.

That said, I have nothing but UTTER CONTEMPT for the virtue-signaling evil warmongers who push for endless slaughter and offer no realistic solution to the conflict. May you burn in hell.

End of story.

[DogeDesigner @cb_doge]

Elon Musk has made it clear from the very beginning that Starlink is for peaceful use, not long-range drone strikes.

He deserves enormous credit for helping Ukraine stay connected through this war. His Starlink support was a major factor in why Ukraine was NOT overrun by Russia.

真・錬金術の誕生

[fox hsiao @pirrer]

舊金山核融合新創 Marathon Fusion（@MarathonFusion）說，他們用核融合的中子，把汞變成了穩定的金。汞是 80 號、金是 79 號，原子核只差一顆質子。

核融合射出的高能中子打中汞-198，撞出兩顆中子，汞-198 變成汞-197；汞-197 再抓進自己最內層的電子，一顆質子變成中子，就成了金-197，約 64 小時變掉一半。

公司的論文提議把這套反應放進核融合電廠外圍的材料層，中子照樣能生產燃料氚，黃金是副產品。官網估算一座 GW 級電廠只賣電，一年約 2.23 億美元，加上賣金變成 4.82 億。

不過論文估算這批金要存放約 17.7 年，每盎司的放射性才會低於一根香蕉；這次實驗只公開一張伽瑪能譜，做出多少金、純度、成本都還沒公布，全世界也還沒有商用核融合電廠。

黃金要成為核融合的金主，前提是金價撐得住，賣金的收入才算數。

Want to know the difference between communism and capitalism?

You don't need a history book. Look no further than the Korean Peninsula.

In 1953 the Korean War came to ceasefire and one country became two.
Same people.
Same language. Same history.

Same starting line.

The North chose communism.
The South chose capitalism.

Here is the scorecard 72 years later.

ECONOMY
- South Korea: 14th largest economy in the world.
- North Korea: 150th.
- Per person, South Korea ranks 37th. North Korea ranks 214th.
- In 2025 South Korea exported $709.7 billion in goods. A record.
- North Korea's total trade with China, its biggest partner, was $2.7 billion.
- South Korea exports that much in less than a day and a half.

HEALTH
- South Korea: #5 in the world for life expectancy.
- North Korea: #136.
- Be born north of the line and you lose 10 years of life.
- A North Korean child is 6 times more likely to die before age 5.

FOOD
- The UN says about 46% of North Koreans are undernourished.
- That is nearly 12 million people.

TECH
- South Korea: #4 most innovative country on Earth.
- Two South Korean companies make 70% of the world's memory chips.
- South Korea sold $173 billion in chips last year alone.
- 97% of South Koreans are online.
- In North Korea, fewer than 10,000 people can reach the internet. That is less than 0.1% of the country.

LIGHTS
- Look at the peninsula from space at night.
- South Korea glows.
- North Korea is almost completely dark. Even the capital is a dim dot.

FREEDOM
- Freedom House scores South Korea 83 out of 100.
- North Korea scores 3. One of the lowest on Earth.

EXPORTS
- South Korea gives the world Samsung, Hyundai and Blackpink.
- North Korea gives the world rockets… crappy ones.

Same people.
Same land.
Different system.

Watch the line.
