Maybe I Messed Up, Maybe Kongsi Gelap Are Looking For Me. I Am Scared. | /r/malaysia/comments/18xh9mx/maybe_i_messed_up_maybe_kongsi_gelap_are_looking/ | 87 | [] | Short story. I (M20) tried looking for sex service and when I replied slow (was still considering whether or not I should go thru with it), received threats that they'll send kongsi gelap to come after me. To put this into perspective, I'm a very desperate virgin.
This morning I contacted a service girl via WhatsApp regarding her services. I believe I found her thru Locanto (I contacted multiple service girls). I was a little slow in interacting with her as I was still doubtful of what I was doing, morally and financially.
Obviously, she was very hasty with setting up and whatnot, but I never actually agreed to book, never even mentioned wanting to book a session. I only asked for the available services offered. I told her to wait a bit, and after a while, and once she seemed very impatient, I told her that it's okay (meaning I changed my mind).
Then moments later, I get a WhatsApp call from her (declined it) and moments later got messaged (on WhatsApp) by some guy telling me that customers are mad and this is my issue I have to deal with. He threatened to send the kongsi gelap after me. I did not open the chat, and almost immediately blocked and reported the guy, so I don't know if he gave me a way out of this.
Additional, I deleted the contact and chat of the afformentioned service girl (whom I assume is the root of this issue), so now I have zero proof of anything to support my case. In hindsight, it was a bit of a rash decision to do so, but I was absolutely terrified. I also deleted most of the contacts and chats of the other service girls I contacted.
Help.
I don't know what to do. I'm considering reporting this to the police soon, and telling my dad. My dad would be immensely disappointed in me, but at least he would be aware of a possible threat. If it's just me who'll be affected then fine, but I don't want them to go after my family and/ or friends.
Edit: THANK YOU to EVERY SINGLE ONE of you. YES, even the comments that make fun of me or make light of the situation are oddly reassuring. I am sufficiently aware of my flaws. You guys are a lifesaver; dis sub is a lifesaver.
The guy threatened me during my work break, and my mood completely changed (and I'm still new there). I couldn't focus on my work, anxiety was high, I was very preoccupied with this issue, I just wanted to run to the nearest police station ASAP. I literally hv NOBODY to reach out to for this issue. I tried posting to bolehland first but had issues with age or sumn and imagine that, tryna' seek immediate advice to the only people to u can reach out to and the sub's just like "no". Seeing y'all's messages pop up throughout the evening TRULY calmed me.
To clarify: (a) I wasn't tryna' lose my v-card, but some other services, (b) post nut clarity doesn't help, masturbation doesn't help (maybe I hv an actual problem?), hence why I went so far. | [

Because at that time, this guy sent me pictures of people getting hacked and slashed, claiming it's their doing.\nAs a result, I was absolutely scared shitless, luckily I have a friend whom he and his dad is in the society, they called back the number that threaten me, the guy picked up the phone, we ask to meet him at a place, he refused and immediately hang up the call, so you see.. it's all a scam just to scare people like you and me.\nDon't worry, you are fine, perfectly fine."

Since it's about hookers, it's certainly not legal, and certainly not legally enforceable.\"\nYou did well by blocking the threatening calls and messages. These people have no legal standing of any sort regarding this non existing transaction. I do not believe that they will provide any alleviating remedies to your situation, it's inconceivable.\nAs long as you did not give out your address, or banking details, all they have going for them is your phone number. Keep it that way, and keep blocking any threatening calls and messages. They usually won't keep this up forever.\nIf you report this, the police will most likely write a report about it. They may or may not call you next of kin to verify the details. Considering your current age and social standing, or maybe religious orientation, you may find such an option unpalatable.\nIf you are truly desperate, u/ kenakalan's advice in this comment chain is actually reliable. As usual, due diligence before any choice is the correct way forward."

"Fully agreed.\nLOL @ nonsense of \"reforms too fast\". Anwar is fucking up his reforms even in the past 12 months.\nRe-appointing Azam Baki. Absolute shithead who is as corrupt as the people he prosecutes and otherwise is incompetent as the top anti-corruption enforcement officer. Even the Judiciary hates Azam. No wonder Muhyiddin was acquitted in six months!\nRe-appointing Idrus Harun. Lost his footing after Zahid DNAA, Muhyiddin acquittal, 7 month absent teacher case, etc. That six-month extension butchered Anwar's judgement.\nWasted a year with first-term PKR MPs as Ministers of Education & Health. One already replaced, itself is a fucking indictment. You waited 20+ years to become PM and your PKR Health Minister barely lasted a year. How do you know so little about your party's own MPs?\n13+ months later, the UG has failed to provide its promised Joint Manifesto. This has caused many unforced errors: local elections spat between UMNO & DAP, zero ability to deliver on promises (because GE15 promises \"aren't relevant\" anymore lmao), GLC appointments withdrawn and immediately returned.\nCompletely unexplained delays on whistleblower protection & Ombudsman. Without these, you lose rural communities and urban reformers and corruption cases. I expect both bills to be significantly watered down with loopholes, just like the citizenship for Malaysian mothers.\nPoor rural outreach: with urban amateurs at Education & Health, cannot expect them to figure out key rural problems, but seriously, rural areas are just as shitty to work in as before: zero enforcement of minimum wage, abusive bosses, ultra-slow development, open secret corruption, etc.\nPoor UG outreach: UMNO & DAP still hate each other and selling the whole \"this is for unity and stability\" has worn out its welcome when little changes on the ground. You can't fight PN if your own racial animosity is equal to PN without the teeth. It looks more like political expediency to enter Putrajaya and less for the rakyat.\nInternally inconsistent. That's not bad necessarily, but it belies that there is no real vision. First we hate Azam, then we help him. First we halt all 3R, then we have little 3R enforcement. First we pass an AHL, then blame PN for adding loopholes, then never actually close the loopholes now you have a 2/3 majority. First Zahid has to call his Defence, then DNAA. First fight rural Sabahans and threaten their families on absent teachers, then protect the teacher once the High Court finds him actually fucking absent.",

That was Anwar's choice to focus on anti-corruption as his message to voters.\nBut now that Anwar has a chance to act differently, it appears he had no real strategy, no real plan, nothing in his mind or his Cabinet or his coalition on how to implement it. He is making the exact same failures as everyone else before him: losing his own message.\nIf Anwar didn't have a strategy of how to deal with corrupt public servants, then he massively oversold some pie in the sky mentality. Removing corrupt public servants is basically job #1 on day #1 of any anti-corruption initiative.\n//\nAnyways, Azam isn't some bulletproof man. Once you remove Azam, there's little he can do. His influence wanes as soon as he's no longer in charge of MACC. And, trust: there's an anti-Azam faction. He's lost many, many times in Court.\nMACC has enough dirt on Azam.\nSo does the SC.\nSo do the police.\nThe other problem is, it's likely Zahid had a role in choosing the next MACC Chief, according to the PH + BN joint resolution.",

But so far it has been dead silence.",
"rather than focus on economy he choose hamas palestin .\nDid he have a choice? Let me state very clearly. Malaysians love HAMAS more than their own kids. I say that because they are willing to risk the entire Malaysian economy (US is Malaysia's third largest trading partner and a major source of FDI) in order to support a clearly and openly terrorist organization. Malaysians love HAMAS so much that the education minister got on stage and parliament and was hysterical about her HAMAS solidarity week. Malaysians love HAMAS so much they were willing to give scholarships to HAMAS students that they denied to their own fellow Malaysians.\nA leader has no choice if his followers are all intoxicated. You try to talk sense to them and they'll just beat you to death, you might as well play along.\nDon't misinterpret what I have said above. It is not intended as incitement. It is an observation of facts on the Malaysian ground. It is simply true and factual that the Malaysian public are drunk on the HAMAS koolaid, so there's nothing any leader that wants to stay in power can do. Any attempt to lead them away from the HAMAS path will result in the leader being removed from power.\nIf you ask a typical Malaysian, is there anything that HAMAS can do that would result in you ending your support for them, the answer is nothing. HAMAS literally can do no wrong according to the typical Malaysian."

Abolishment of mandatory death penalty, stalking law, fiscal responsibility act were passed in 2023, very important if minimally impactful laws.\nThe laws that I expect that needs to be passed by the Madani government by 2026 before I call reformasi dead are separating the AG and PP, Ombudsman law, and Freedom of Information Act. If none of these happen, then yes I agree reformasi is dead.",
"IMHO, I think it's the same root problem between PH 1.0 and this UG now, just a different flavour: miss the obvious reforms because none of these PH Ministers actually know 1) what reforms are most helpful to the rakyat (not to the Minister) and 2) how to sell reforms to communities that need them (aka rural, B40, and public servants).\nThere's all this talk to get rid of hardcore poverty, help rural communities, etc. But rural communities need basic institutional reform so badly: PN never did shit. Yet now, the UG doesn't even talk about institutional reforms to rural communities.\nI always go back to a lack of serious whistleblower protection reforms.\nWhistleblower protection reform is such an obvious win. Helps prosecute corruption cases, helps stop rural corruption, helps people feel safer in their communities, helps schools, hospitals, clinics, contracts, mega-projects, infrastructure, etc. Every time a whistleblower exposes a case, another big positive news cycle for Madani.\nAnd whistleblowers, ironically, risk their lives and they help the Government (who else does that except soldiers) and they've been resoundingly slapped in the face by this UG.\nOther great institutional reforms for ordinary rakyat, but you'll rarely find a PH (or BN or GPS or GRS) MP ever bring it up:\nthe noted Public Ombudsman 👍👍\nminimum wage enforcement\ncrackdown on extremely absent teachers, teacher bullies, teacher pedophiles, etc.\nactual enforcement of ultra-racist epithets\nanti-SLAPP legislation to stop people getting bulldozed by lawyers",

"But the election is not due until 2027. And Mr Anwar’s apparent abandonment of reform has a cost. It is reinforcing Malaysians’ growing disillusion with politics. And how could it not?

The #1 rule of a political party: make a base -> take care of your base, focus on your base, deliver what you promised to your base. Without your base, politicians often can't reinvent themselves quickly enough for the next election.\nI still laugh that Fadhlina, who is transparently trying to entice PN voters, is losing PH's base pretty damn fast. How did PN voters appreciate Fadhlina's pro-PN policies?\n“What’s interesting is that teachers used to openly support BN-Umno, and have now switched to PN and PAS.

Suspend Padu until security flaws addressed: Former MITI deputy minister | /r/malaysia/comments/18xavj0/suspend_padu_until_security_flaws_addressed/ | 47 | [
"Science/ Technology"
] | KUALA LUMPUR: The registration for Central Database Hub (Padu) should be temporarily suspended until security flaws are addressed, as it currently lacks the robustness for its intended objective.
Investment, Trade, and Industry (MITI) former deputy minister Dr Ong Kian Ming said those currently receiving government aid like Bantuan Tunai Rahmah (BTR) may provide inaccurate information in Padu.
"This is especially true for those with additional non-taxed income, such as rental income from owned properties.
He said that many users, including himself, are questioning the absence of data in several columns within Padu.
"This is perplexing, considering Padu is designed to consolidate information from various ministries and agencies, including the Inland Revenue Board (LHDN), the Social Security Organisation (Socso), the Employees Provident Fund (EPF), the National Registration Department (JPN) and so on," he added.

It's not something like a wrong config, incompatible updates or being under-capacity... it's shit flowing down through every process.",
"well it got fixed right? just in an hour.\nthat's my point. I agree the system sucks but this is one way to fix it rapidly. It's still in data collection phase and only around 1% have registered.\nHopefully by March it will be a lot tighter and only then will I register.",

It is a classic software engineering problem.",

It's not like everyone have to register today. Ample time for feedbacks and improvements.\nsorry I might have missed it, what vulnerabilities did they find today?",
"They are doing it in phases. They did tests last year with DOSM and government agencies data.\nNo, they did not. That's just integration, far from actual testing, pilot and beta releases. At this rate, I don't know if they applied unit-test or not, they most likely skipped it and just do the basic UI test and called it a day, expect the public to feedback, but they ignored the very fundamental principle - the private and confidential data is at huge risk of data breach. I remember read from a news that the system is conceived in seven months, collaboration of multiple government agencies.\nThe one vulnerability that get the most attention and reported is the authentication that allowed third party to use your MyKad number to change your password is a dead sentence. If this bug and vulnerability live in the system for the multiple phases of testing that you claimed they did, then it means they have no idea what they are doing to even conduct a proper beta release and test program, which bring another point, if this sort of a basic security function didn't get implemented correctly when rolling out to production to millions of users, what would the system security for the rest of the components in the system be ?",

(In fact, if you do require 'many many months' to do it, it's a failure in itself)",

Like c'mon, anyone with an IC number can pre-register?... and with lists of IC and phone numbers being leaked .... sigh\nAnd the other issue - storing password in cleartext? C'mon. It's not like they're re-creating the wheel or best practices.\nIf there's no will to review the data flow, no will test it with an independent pilot group, and no will to fix it, then I guess if you could say no amount of testing/fixing minor things will help.

To answer your question - better testing and risk acceptance processes. The heck, doesn't seem like they've done a pen test or proper design review... they're even using staging servers on prod. This is not 'incremental updates with continuous improvement' at all.",

So each grab ride means 1 less fast food outing that kid can go with his friends. 5 rides means 1 less new game he can buy, or 1 less set of cosmetics for the ladies.\nThat can teach the kid opportunity costs.

Malay voters will be more wary of DAP after Ngeh Koo Ham’s Shariah committee blunder, analysts suggest | /r/malaysia/comments/18x5i1b/malay_voters_will_be_more_wary_of_dap_after_ngeh/ | 101 | [

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 3 — Malay voters who did not vote for Pakatan Harapan (PH) will be more wary of the coalition and its component DAP after the recent controversy over Beruas MP Datuk Ngeh Koo Ham’s statement regarding the Shariah law special committee, analysts have warned.
ADVERTISEMENT Although Ngeh had apologised and retracted his statement, those polled suggested that the damage was already done as it would further undermine what little support DAP is getting from Malay voters and this incident would further serve as “ammunition” for PAS and Perikatan Nasional (PN) to paint PH and DAP as “anti-Islam”.
“To be honest Malay views on the DAP were never great in the first place.”
“Now they have ‘proof’ that the DAP is out to abolish Malay and Muslim rights,” said International Islamic University Malaysia’s political science lecturer Syaza Shukri | [

New digital road tax, driving licence formats, online renewal fr Feb - no more physical sticker, card fr Feb - paultan.org | /r/malaysia/comments/18x44g1/new_digital_road_tax_driving_licence_formats/ | 19 | [] | [
[
"Am I the only one who thinks removing the physical roadtax is a bad idea?\nLet's say you're involved in a car accident, there is no way for you to verify the car plate is real, or to check if the car has a valid insurance.\nIf a police wants to issue a saman to a car that is illegally parked at the roadside, how does he verify the car matches the plate number?",
"Police already has access to the govt database of registered vehicles, so the system can tell what car model, colour and year it is if they key in the number plate\nIf they key in a plate and the car description doesn't match what they are seeing in real life then they know the car isn't legit\nIf you observe police/jpj/Bandaraya when they do their rounds for saman, they will be holding a device, probably fiddling with it infront of cars. That's the device with the database",

"The problem is, your car is not unique, if you own a blue Myvi, there are thousands of the same blue Myvi on the road. How does the police know your blue Myvi matches your car plate?\nIf you have a roadtax on your windscreen, the police can double verify.",
"I dont understand your point. Whatever information that the physical road tax shows, the database has it as well because its directly from JPJ.\nPhysical road tax shows:\n1) number plate 2) road tax expiry 3) car details (model, engine cc, colour etc.) 4) even chassis number (I think)\nAll this information is already in the device that authorities use",
"If a car is illegally parked at the roadside, and both of its car plates are missing a letter. So how does the police issue a saman? You can fake a car plate, but you can't fake a roadtax.\nThis won't be an issue if there is a physical roadtax on the windscreen for the police and cross check.\nNot to mention during roadblock, the police can easily see your roadtax on your windscreen. Now they have to key in your plate number, which takes more time.",
"Hmm good point, seems like a loophole that needs fixing. Other option would be to tell the driver to get out at roadblocks so they can open the car up and get the chassis number, but that's also way too much work",
"A blue Myvi is still a better information that some sort of a car.\nActually car colour is no longer mandatory. You can change your car colour everyday and have no trouble with law.\nIn fact the better information is the chassis number, or VIN. It's usually available in various places of a car. An engine block also has its own number. Police can check these numbers.",
"Yes. Once I was at a roadblock during a night. The officer that come to me call me by my brother's name. I was riding my brother's motor, thats explains it.",

Wedding Banquet w Malay Friend | /r/malaysia/comments/18xb0j0/wedding_banquet_w_malay_friend/ | 33 | [
"Food"
] | I'm getting married this year and planning on having a wedding banquet.
Has anyone hosted or attended any Chinese wedding banquet that also caters to Malays and Indian? As I wouldn't want my friends from other races to get missed out.
The options that I am thinking is either: 1) Banquet at Chinese restaurant, additionally cater food and utensils/cutlery from Muslim / Malay Restaurant. They are seated together with our mutual friends. ( or separate table )
2) Don't invite them at all.
I'm hoping to not choose Option 2 and I cannot not host at Chinese restaurant as my other half's family has a more traditional background. In the meantime, I'll try to look for halal restaurant that also serves Chinese cuisine.
And suggestions would be great appreciated :) | [
[
"option 1 exists, it's common for restaurants to provide a table serving no-pork no-lark."
],
[
"You can throw it at a hotel and have them serve Chinese cuisine but halal. Probably more expensive though.",
"Yes just do the whole thing in a hotel and fret not about the extra costs. if things work out well you only have to do this once lol.\nedit: ppl tend to be a bit more generous in the ang pows too of it’s a reputable hotel.",
"I know people who did this. If they want to invite their Muslim friends or colleagues they just hold the ceremony at a hotel."
],
[
"my cousin who predominantly hang out with malays catered halal food for his wedding banquet in a chinese restaurant whereas one of my colleague had one in a chinese restaurant that has a separate kitchen for pork free/halal (cant remember which) food so the options are there but do make sure your muslim mates are comfortable with the options"
],
[
"Wow, a question that I am uniquely able to answer.\nContext: My wife and I are both Chinese, but we have a lot of Malay friends and colleagues, and we really wanted to include them in our wedding.\nSo we had 2 weddings meals:\nBig kenduri-style wedding with Halal food for all friends and family (including parent's friends)\nIntimate 10-table family-only dinner the night of the Chinese Wedding ceremony\nThe kenduri style wedding, we rented a very nice air conditioned function hall called Rumah Melaka that looks like a kampung house but is fully equipped as a function hall. We and a bunch of very close friends got together and hand made the decorations ourselves. My wife baked up a storm for the desert table, I made our own wedding slideshow. We drove all the way to Tangkak to hire this kenduri caterer called Pok De cause our friend recommended them as amazing (and they were). We had nasi briyani, ayam masak merah, mutton (my fav), sayur acar, and a bunch of other dishes and also vegetarian options. Separately, we hired a cendol stall and a satay stall, and people could order on demand. We also got a freezer full of Magnum ice cream to top it off. Dress code was traditional clothing, all the women in our families wore Kebaya, there was a sea of baju Melayu, cheong sam, sari etc. Between 300 - 500 people attended (I lost count cos everyone brought their extended families lol, really kenduri style). It was really amazing to see, and now 8 years later my friends still bring it up as the best wedding they ever attended.\nThe Chinese wedding dinner was held a month later, family and close friends only, very intimate in a very nice restaurant. This was mostly done to appease the traditionalists in both families, but honestly since we paid for everything ourselves, my wife and I had final say in whatever we wanted to do.\nAs for costs, the Kenduri wedding cost about 50k all included, the Chinese restaurant dinner cost about 15k. This is in 2016 bear in mind, but everything fell neatly under our budget.",
"Unfortunately, our budget isn't as much but thanks for sharing your story",
"No problem, hope it all works out for you!",
"Love this!\nWish more Malaysians are as inclusive as you. One of the best part about being Malaysians are the friends you have coming from different backgrounds ❤️"
],
[
"From experience, the easiest way is to set a “halal zone” at the back or corner of the venue where halal caterers set up a buffet style with traditional Malay kenduri food.\nThe caterers provide cutlery, food, service to these guests.\nYou provide chair to sit, air con, table.\nYou can go all out and invite 30-100 of your closest Malay friends."

],
[
"Heyya, went to a Chindian wedding last month with plenty of Malays - was at Ruyi & Lyn @ Bangsar South Center. The menu was more to Chinese-style cuisine but caters to all attendees just fine. The food was good so check them out!"
],
[
"I have recently gone through this so I can give some feedback. I did my wedding banquet at a standard Chinese restaurant which also offers vegetarian package and halal packages. So there is really not much issue there as long as you have a fixed 1 or 2 tables to entertain your Muslim friends. The only concern is where to place them among the seating arrangement and I find that it's best to place the Halal table at sides or corner closer to entrance/exit, allowing the Halal food caterer to serve the dishes.\nWith regards to Indians the diet is quite similar to Chinese usually with no beef involved, so it is quite easy to resolve. A couple of my Indian friends practice vegetarian diets so that's another issue to resolve entirely."

"Abah Seafood n Grill and Unique Seafood in Seksyen 13 has space for wedding dinners. Karaoke system provided in the latter.\nYou don't have a set budget in mind for food? Regarding alcohol, most Malays shouldn't mind as long as you don't serve it to them."

Aside from targeted subsidies, how does the rakyat benefit from PADU? | /r/malaysia/comments/18xec4n/aside_from_targeted_subsidies_how_does_the_rakyat/ | 31 | [] | Main question above.
Side question is what is stopping the individual from listing a lower income? | [
[
"My impression is that the government is at the “data gathering” stage right now, and aside from subsidies, they don’t really have any idea how they’ll use the data in PADU.\nOn the side question, PADU will probably link up with LHDN’s darabase to verify your salaried income, but I don’t think there’s any way for them to verify your side income (e.g. income from rnt, dividends, etc)\nMy speculative shower thought that is that PADU’s main purpose is to widen the tax base by expanding into the non recorded/cash economy. Its common knowledge that not everyone declares thier income to LHDN for one reason or another, esp those who transact in cash (e.g., the roadside nasi lemak seller, morning market trader). By making everyone declare thier income in PADU, the government would have greater visibility over this segment of society - hence increasing thier tax base.",
"My speculative shower thought that is that PADU’s main purpose is to widen the tax base\nNot really, but it can be used for that purpose.\nYou wanna really know how the government plans to widen the tax base? E-Invoice\nBy the end of this year, every seller on Lazada and Shopee sales invoice on will be reported to LHDN. You think you can run your side business and not pay tax? Haha. Think again.",
"Can you quote source on this",
"Source: Me. In the industry (not e-commerce) doing this project.\nMore details can be sourced here, but it doesn't go into detail yet.\nTo add on, if you rent your property out, in the future you are required to file an e-invoice also. Which means LHDN now has your rental income as well. They should also know your interest payments because this data is provided by banks (similar to how e-commerce platforms are providing info to LHDN). So LHDN will know if you are over-declaring on your rental interest tax deduction.\n<image>",
"This is a pretty good answer. I read somewhere a while back that Malaysia ranks quite high on undeclared income and that’s not only because of personal deception but because our a current system is inadequate to run the scope from new wave income streams or old school roadside stall businesses, it’s only good at the middle of the spectrum ones.\nThat being said, for me personally, having lived in countries like Canada and UK, I feel the reason why many dodge or are unmotivated to declare is because our tax dollars isn’t put to good use. Our secondary and tertiary education is nothing short of an embarrassment. Our public transport infrastructure is a joke. Socialism factor is very low.\nBut I think at the end of the day, PADU is the beginning of BIG DATA, albeit implemented poorly with targeted subsidies as the unappealing carrot.",
"they don’t really have any idea how they’ll use the data * I guess they integrate data they previously had, and start using only now. Data is not meaningful unless relational conclusions can be linked. (Across ministries) * From some ministries; they have employment income, company declarations (dividend is exempted), quit rent and assessments of properties, asset usage license (e.g. driver), pretty much can track money flow indirectly without linking to banks, education certificates, etc * in accounting, there's 2 cash flow tracking method; cash directly, or categorical indirectly; maybe PADU will trace by indirect cash flow method with ownerships data) * what other statistics relations: let say, link education to industrial employment, link property ownership to employment, etc (scammer only use contacts link, the only part I think sensitive) * education-employment can stop wasteful PTPTN as per actual employments, property-employment can improve \"black economy\" chances or civilians' basic need securities \" or whatever links education-health, occupational-health, etc",
"Great answer. One concern I have is LHDN comapare notes with PADU then open audit. If same no issue. If under declaration in padu then perjury. Can't see a law on it but it's possible based on US laws. Best not to disclose anything yet since no law requires us to disclose.",

"So, no reason for T20 to register...",
"They already have most of everyone's data from what Rafizi said. PADU is giving a platform for everyone to disclose and amend information that's not correct."
],
[
"In a way its encouraging rakyat to earn lower so can get subsidy. The harder you work, the smarter you work, the more you earn then take away subsidy after they tax higher bracket. Listing lower income is perjury. Best is not to disclose anything until we get more information on the benefits.",
"Yeap i signed up but when I saw the amount of things you had to disclose to the government. I was like, for a couple hundred a year? You gotta sell more than that bruh.",
"is a game for him , piji want to promote big data mining not helping people. This is not the way",
"Yea just wait. I'll just disclose my dad data first. He retired no income got ntg. If I disclosed mine and ended up not getting any subsidy then I just sold myself to rafizi for ntg. I can use my dad IC to get the subsidy later",
"From what I understand so far, the last date to update is around March while the first real subsidies (fuel) that will be derived from this system is planned for around July, so there might not be a chance to update when the subsidies mechanisms change unless govt decides to extend the deadline",
"I don't think that approach works. There are always ppl joining the workforce and ppl earning and lifestyle changes.

Weird moment that happens to me in Joho | /r/malaysia/comments/18y4x66/weird_moment_that_happens_to_me_in_joho/ | 48 | [
"Mildly interesting"
] | 12 years ago when I'm 16. That time I'm on a bus somewhere in JB(Johor Bahru), there's this one lovely old lady asking me a question on how to go to CS(City Square) but in Chinese. So me as a Malay don't understand what the hell she's saying, but suddenly, next to me this young Chinese man around my age, told me that this aunty is speaking Chinese but in a main land China dialect & don't understand Malay. So that guy became a translator between me & her. I answered every question that aunty ask me, on how to get to CS or where part of JB is this & which stop or bus she should take next to get there, the guy also know how to get there & helping me out. So at the end, she thanks me & I also thank that guy for helping me.
At that time I didn't think much about it. But when I'm looking back & remember that moment, I keep asking myself why did that guy didn't just answer her questions directly & why did that aunty didn't even ask the guy that actually understand her. Until this day I still question it. | [

"From my viewpoint, the Chinese man just don’t want to be rude for you to be taken out of the conversation. If the lady initiated the conversation with you, and suddenly he came in and talk away with her knowing that you don’t understand their language is kind of rude in my opinion.",
"This is a good take! It's a novel situation for both OP and the Chinese man, so it makes sense for the Chinese man to just go with the flow instead of having to socially navigate the idea of telling OP that he'll just take it from there, which can seem pretty rude, especially if he's not entirely sure what exactly is going on",

Seriously, every other department has better PC or laptops than we do and we don't even have windows license or original editing softwares.\nWe pretty much always ended up stealing images from google. We had to sneakily ask marketing team to pay for the subscriptions when it got to point where we're running out of google images.

The language liberally incorporates a lot of loanwords from Thai, the dominant language on national level. For example - \"alcoholic beverage\" is \"lau\", clearly from the thai eord เล่า. \"Consuming\" drug is \"sep\", should be from the thai word เสพ. But \"sep\" is also quite similar to \"sap\" of hisap. Perhaps they are both cognates. There are some linguists who propose that thai and malay are from the same language superfamily, some of the very fundamental vocabs are too similar to be passed off as coincidence.\nThe word for \"difficult\" in southern thai malay is \"payah\". Everything is payah, whereas in makaysian malay, payah is only seen when the phrase susah-payah is used.\nThe glottanisation in pattani-kelantan malay makes them difficult to be understood by people not familiar with it. But glottanisation exists in many other languages too - Malaysian-Singaporean mandarin is highly glottanised, n many china n taiwan chinese find this odd. England street english is highly glottanised, epitomized by london's \"bo-a of wo-a\" (bottle of water), and many foreigners who r more used to TV english struggle to decipher them"

It would be a massive betrayal of trust should data collected from the public be used by the government for any political purposes.\nI mean this is a valid concern, because this statement here just basically saying government can “do whatever the fuck they want with your data without any liability” since they have special privilege of being exempted from executed under any law for misuse.

Bank account for Syrian students | /r/malaysia/comments/18y4pzg/bank_account_for_syrian_students/ | 4 | [] | Hello guys,
So I’m from Syria and I’m planning to pursue my education in Malaysia, but I’ve heard that Syrian students are not allowed to open a bank account in Malaysia, but apparently these information are a little bit old, so i was wondering if this measure is still in effect, or no longer in effect and Syrian students can open a bank account in Malaysia, I hope if anyone has informations in this regard to share it with me,
thank you very much | [
[
"As you’re probably aware, Syria was sanctioned by the UNSC several years ago. Whilst the sanctions were temporarily lifted last year to allow aid into Syria (following the earthquake back in January), I’d imagine most banks are hesitant to accept Syrian customers in case the sanctions are re-imposed in the near future. You can read this article to find out more, although to note that it was weitten back in 2019/2020.\nhttps://loanstreet.com.my/learning-centre/sanctioned-countries-citizens-can’t-open-bank-account-in-malaysia",
"Yeah the article here misunderstands the sanctions as well. These sanctions are not on all Syrians. They are against certain individuals in the regime.\nFun fact though, i worked for this company lol"
],
[
"Im sure if you have documents from your Uni stating you are an international student the bank will have methods to help."
],
[
"I am a Syrian and I managed to open a bank account with RHB 6 years ago after trying out every bank or branch i could find.\nUnfortunately in Malaysia they understood these sanctions as sanctions on all Syrians. When in reality they are sanctioning government people and specific individuals and companies.\nIn addition to a quite xenophobic system, this results in Syrians unable to open bank accounts. Try to open with RHB, or some obscure banks. Try banks near your university. Unfortunately, it also depends on the branch and the people working there. The whiter you are the better."

Customer question why there's no Halal logo after bought the product. | /r/malaysia/comments/18y60a4/customer_question_why_theres_no_halal_logo_after/ | 104 | [] | I'm a new entrepreneur, a customer bought my packed frozen pastry and whatsapp to the staff that why my product don't have Halal logo. I just started the biz less than 2 months ago and just only placed the product at that particular shop on the 4th day when the customer bought it.
Is it possible to obtain a Halal logo this quickly? Hmm, I only have the manager's contact, don't have the other staff's contact though (yet)..hmm.. If the customer is so concern with the Halal, why bought it in the first place..hmm..
Has any food entrepreneur encountered this before? What do you think? | [

"Honestly, many Muslims have no idea how difficult it is to actually get a halal certificate from JAKIM.\nEven if you can source all your ingredients from halal suppliers the end product may not be halal certified. That's not to say that just because you don't have a halal certificate you are non-halal.\nI always see people asking whether a product is halal. When you explain the differences. They only want to know a yes or no answer.\nYou have a brain, decide for yourself.",
"Even they (muslim businesses) don't bother to get the cert themselves. It is a lot of hassle and red tape processes involving alot follow up and paperwork.",
"You have a brain, decide for yourself.\nOur education system discourages this unfortunately.",
"Our government is actively discouraging this too",
"Let's not forget the non halal lift controversy during mco, when a hotel claims it was forced to do it because JAKIM threatened to revoke their certificate and even implied it had to pay coffee money on top of everything to get certified halal despite fulfilling all requirement.",
"What was the controversy? Lift also need halal meh?",
"There was a lift specifically used for non-halal food. It was to avoid cross contamination. Idk if this is the standard but maybe it is? Since everything do need to be separated.\nEdit: it was a lift to transfer/transport the food Edit 2: from kitchen to a hall",
"Then any hotels that share loading bay lift with non halal restaurants are gonna be in trouble.",
"Yeah probably, unless it's well packed etc. The one mentioned here was for buffet hall (if I'm not mistaken from previously reading articles) for events etc and it was like ready to serve food with possibilities of spilling easily (not airtight containers etc).\nEdit: from kitchen to buffet hall if I'm not mistaken",
"That's wild. Do Malaysians use the saying \"pigs might fly\"? Because they can't fly, that's why it's a saying.\nSo just one lift is enough hahah",

"It's really more difficult than most folks think. I have a friend who's in Japanese restaurant, ingredients fully sourced from several suppliers, all owning halal cert. He applied to Jakim for the cert, with all listed suppliers, no contamination and took him 3 months pending. Half a year on, someone called up asking for 6 figure to get approval.\nCases like this are why I question myself who or which story to believe in. Some say in 1 month can kao tim and all.",
"For a small restaurant with small inventory is easier,cause every single ingredients needs to have a halal cert. If a large restaurant with 1500+ ingredients will be too time consuming.\nI've heard cases where even the soda gas canister need a halal cert. They make it hard and if they know u are a big company, they will push you for bribes la.\nFor the masses very easy only. Just spam :-\nHalal?\nHalal x?",

OP can answer not halal or if halal without cert can explain why (as op said its a new business).\nThe customer will most likely understand the reasoning.\nJesus fucking christ /r/Malaysia, if the customer is a vegan asking whether the product is vegan innocuously you wouldn't be seeing this kind of response. It's not like the customer is threatening to badmouth OP's product?\nKalau tak tanya macam mana nak find out halal or not? That also can say self entitled wth la.",

It is nobody’s job but your own to make sure your conscience is clear in regards to dietary restrictions, religious or otherwise.",

It was a simple fucking question and OP could've answer it in the nicest way possible and not make this an issue. But guess what, on top of it was an \"inconvenience\" to them, it was also a religious issue which makes it their favorite issue to shit on.\nHow that kind of replies isn't violating this sub's rules is beyond me. But somehow my answer is.",
"Ikr.. I'm in pharma sales imagine if my doctors ask me is the drug halal certified and I go off on the doctor with an attitude saying he should do his own research and I'm not there to fulfill his religious beliefs. Or if you are a sales engineer and your customer asks you does this product comply with so and so certification? It's a perfectly valid question.\nAs the business owner OP is the best person to ask and if OP wants to be a good business owner instead of catering to this sub's closeted racists then it should have been a simple yes or no answer or just nicely explain why there's no halal certificate or no plans to get one",
"Who’s the asshole here? Did the customer ask, “do you have halal certification?” Or did they ask “where is your halal logo?” as though that’s the default?\nI hear people ask the former all the time, and it’s completely fine. That’s not what this customer was doing, and you wanna act like people calling them out for their entitled attitude is prejudicial. Get a grip."

Non muslim food stall also have the same case.\nAyam jika tidak diuruskan dengan cara yang halal juga haram untuk masyarakat Muslim. Ini bukanlah suatu masalah.

You can tell your customer am waiting for halal cert that the process takes a year due to procedures and wait list and assuming your product is halal reaffirm your customer.\nThere are a lot of sharks that want to take down your business because they are dissatisfied that you exist and run a competing business. Example is the guy saying road side coffee from Vietnam not halal and go publish some BS about it when they themselves can't compete selling vietnam coffee compared to road side. Tbh it's easy to compete since 99% of them only sell coffee that supposedly is better than our local triple mix horrors but worse than any real coffee made by a skilled barista. Even Starbucks coffee is crap and overpriced. The only reason I'm not in the business is lack of capital and I prefer to be in tech. Not that I can't setup an innovative cafe with someone if anyone is interested.\nCase of Vietnam coffee they go further to say not Jakim halal cert. But the coffee vendors actually are halal certified. Given that people like my mum were easily fooled about vaccine misinformation for COVID she wouldn't listen to me about Vietnam coffee either. Scientifically the worst non halal case is roadside roaster using lard on machines but industrial don't do that because lard goes stale fast and doesn't survive long.",

"Yeah, agreed. Just cater to your targeted customer base. If you're not Muslim but want Muslim people to buy your product, then just get the certificate. There might be some misunderstanding or miscommunication, and you can always explain to the customer properly.\nNo need to be like certain comments here, terpaling tersakiti sangat pasal isu halal cert ni. Makcik tepi jalan la, warung roti canai la. Those kind of small business usually established among their own community where everyone knows each other. In close-knit communities, small businesses often operate without needing a halal certificate as trust within the community is sufficient. Some of these businesses may gain popularity and attract customers from outside, and even then, some choose to obtain the halal certification as they grow.\nThe issue arises when larger businesses process their products in factories under non-Muslim names, target Muslim consumers, yet question or criticize Muslim customers when asked about the halal certificate? GTFO."

And there are shops that specifically say they are non-halal. I think used to got one in sunway pyramid that sold non-halal egg tart.\nHowever, if the customer insist on why there is no halal logo, then it comes to how you brand yourself. Do you brand yourself as Muslim friendly or not? Do you want to have that image? If yes then say that you are in the process of getting the cert and it will take a while since you only started. But you can say that you source halal ingredients and this is simpler to prove as the ingredients provider themselves must have halal cert. Whether or not they accept at that point is not on you anymore.",

You dont see food court shops with official jakim certs, but they have all the other necessary ones. I sometimes see the 'Halal' written in jawi, not the jakim version but just normal text on food products.\nKinda weird for the customer to buy the product but later question about the logo. If they really cared they wouldve looked for it the moment they picked it up. Maybe a friend or family member asked them about it."

This customer could be an exception in asking for an actual halal logo.\nThen again who are your competitors in \"frozen pastries\"? If there are already large suppliers selling the same product with halal logo near to where you're selling - customers like this can swing towards the one with an actual halal certification.\nTake this as a learning curve on market demands.",

Take petrol for example: do I need to show my IC everytime I fill up? Scan a QR-code like MySejahtera? Or if I'm eligible for subsidy I get one-off payments every month into my account to fill up petrol?\nLike I mentioned before - I don't think govt have an inkling on how many actually needs the subsidy. PADU is the start of the data collection."

Data analyst/Scientist/Strategist from Software Developer | /r/malaysia/comments/18y108b/data_analystscientiststrategist_from_software/ | 2 | [] | Hi, I’ve been working as a junior software developer (mainly mobile development) for close to 2 years now. I’ve been thinking to change my career path to data analyst/scientist/strategist but I’m not sure how’s the market for this? It is worth to change to this path from a software developer? What do you think in terms of earning between data field and software developer field?
Also been reading the scope for these 3 but it’s still quite hard to grasp the difference between these 3 especially in Malaysia so I would appreciate some insight especially from those who are working in this field
What cert/course/tools do you recommend to learn (that every beginner should know) especially the tools often used in Malaysia. I’m from a CS degree but apart from that 1 semester of data analysis course I really don’t know much
Your advices is much appreciated 🙏 | [
[
"Maybe look into the job description of companies you want to work in? Data analyst job is very tool-specific. It depends on the system the client has invested in. And which part of data field are you interested in? Data scientist and data engineer focuses on different parts of the data field.\nAlso take a look at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRQ0vUodSuE and understand what you are signing up for when you join courses or exams.\nI am just a hobbyist so can't give you an actual picture for Malaysia. But my opinion is - go and get data certification based on which company / industry you wish to work for. If you want to freelance, that's a whole different story - I'd guess companies in Malaysia don't really care for certification."
],
[
"Not a pro.\nCan go as big as a Kingmaker, election etc. not joking. As the job nature is different from your current one, you have to ensure that you are interested in the new job field and the client you are dealing with. Things get easy and far, if the interest and commitment are there."

MyPTPTN sucks man. | /r/malaysia/comments/18y2bvy/myptptn_sucks_man/ | 38 | [] | I was going to ptptn website to pay my monthly student loans, then saw that all services related to paying online or viewing my leftover debts have been terminated at the end of December. And I was asked to download MyPTPTN to handle the transactions. At first i was, "oh ok no problem". Next I installed and made an account, then when i want to access my leftover debt, the app tells me to apply for eKyc (whatever dafuq it is). So i followed instructions, snap pics of my IC (front & back), then came the selfie part. Imagine aligning yoyr face and the app tells you to hold still while it records, and the app takes forever to process whatever the fuck it's supposed to process. First attempt made me wait for minutes looking like an idiot in the office. Then the app just auto logs out and then i had to login again and then repeat the process again and the same shit with the selfie happens again. Like wtf does anyone in the gov app dept does any beta testing before releasing this annoying, unnecessary crap into the public? | [

Padu: Govt agencies bound by own data regulations, says Rafizi in slamming LFL | /r/malaysia/comments/18yckhx/padu_govt_agencies_bound_by_own_data_regulations/ | 16 | [] | [
[
"Their “own data regulations” is basically “we can do whatever we want with the data”. At least that used to be the case for MySejahtera before they got slammed.\nSo I wonder what does “own regulations” address anything at all? You can make the rules as you go, and you won’t be liable to any misuse or breach, because policies is just that, policies. It’s not a written law.\nWhat I want is for YOU TO BE RESPONSIBLE for the data you ask and hold for, and for YOU TO BE PROSECUTED under law(this is the keyword) if it’s misused or there’s data breach. Without these, it’s all what’s happening right now, people can just breach your database and you can just shake it off because you are immune — thus you don’t take data protection and cyber security seriously. Just like how people breached your PADU system yesterday and you just “ok kita dah fix yang tu, nexxttt”.\nRafizi, GET IT? This is not your nasi lemak vending machine ya. It’s not that hard to understand.",
"\"Each government agency is governed by their own regulations on data... I would have thought that a lawyers group would understand that,” Rafizi said during a press conference at the Economy Ministry in Putrajaya on Thursday (Jan 4).\nWtf is this journalism, why isn't there any more clarification in the article about what those \"own regulations\".\nTldr: In the full video below, according rafizi basically stated there are aktas available for each government agency. The reason why PDPA exist is if lets say a commersil business like grab gets created, they don't have akta grab or something like that.https://youtu.be/WsjtgnKbqrE?si=xa41HceaDklFCn9n\nRafizi deserve to get criticised for the questionable security with PADU, but this level of journalism reporting deserve to be criticised as well\nEdit 1: as for specific \"own regulation\", he might be referring some of these as example. Yes, I gotten them from BardAI, so take it with a grain of salt, I ain't a lawyer:26554:\nNational Registration Department (NRD):\nNational Registration Regulations 1990: Governs the collection, use, and disclosure of personal data in the national registration system, including identity card numbers and biometric data.\nMyKad Information Security Policy: Outlines security measures to protect personal data stored on MyKad smart cards.\nMinistry of Health (MOH):\nPersonal Data Protection Policy for Healthcare: Sets out principles for handling personal health information, including consent, confidentiality, and security.\nMedical Records Regulations 2007: Governs the management of medical records in healthcare facilities, ensuring confidentiality and accuracy.\nBank Negara Malaysia (BNM):\nFinancial Consumer Protection Policy: Includes provisions on safeguarding the confidentiality and security of financial consumers' personal data.\nAnti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001 (AMLA): While primarily aimed at preventing financial crime, it also mandates financial institutions to implement measures to protect customer data."

"Coupled with https://www.thestar.com.my/news/nation/2024/01/04/padu-under-civil-service-to-prevent-data-leaks-by-third-party-vendors-says-rafizi\nRafizi seriously need to stop commenting on something he is not an expert of.\nThat is not how infosec works:\nPreventing data leaks is only a part of infosec, things which are much more important is the detection of breach and damage control after data leak occurs\nAll information is bound to leak, it is just a matter of time until the computing power of hackers catch up.\nHence another aspect of infosec is having the expertise to understand the current hacking capability and scale up the infosec measures according to it. You can't honestly expect one government agency to do all these.\nIf you want the most secured way to prevent data leak, go back to pencil and paper and store it in a vault.\nDeveloping infosec industry together with the infrastructure in the country (e.g. legislation, enforcement, education/HR production, adoption of infosec knowledge by all data users) is how you make sure data is handled properly. Not by hogging everything to the government. Him being the minister of economic affairs should understand how bad it is to do everything in the civil service instead of outsourcing.\nCan you even tell us what internal controls are in place to prevent the leaks? Who holds the logs to data access? Who hold the access to data? Who designed and has access to the audit mechanism?\nAnother way to see it - whom will you trust more with your data? 3rd parties that is regulated by laws - that has actual penalties for not having proper controls (i.e. if the law is enforced properly)? Or the government who is \"regulated\" by the said \"regulations\" with no real punishment for mishandling the data?\nAnyone know what \"regulations\" is he even talking about? If the \"regulations\" isn't transparent or enforced how do you expect people to trust your infosec?",
"aka basically anyone a strong enough cable can likely copy all your data and make your life a living hell, until you have enough money & influence to summon the government.\nIt's as if Rafizi is desperately trying to avoid mentioning this is mostly the same public service that allowed 1MDB.",
"yea, with the transition and emphasis of digital information in nearly every aspect of our lives, we will be slaves to our data if there is no good data governance or stewardship.",
"I found this one of those slides during the launch of Padu,\nas for the \"own regulations\" he is referring that each govt agency have their own aktas ( personally wish he can say specific examples of them so that we can find out more). My understanding is that something similar to Malaysia's Omnibus Act existed before it's tabling.I am genuinely surprised The Star didn't even bother putting that quote in the article, so when it say own regulations it makes people think that it's a house rule and not official law or act. Irresponsible journalism.\nhttps://youtu.be/WsjtgnKbqrE?si=xa41HceaDklFCn9n\nEdit 1: as for specific \"own regulation\", he might be referring some of these as example.

"Im guessing he is referring to akta rahsia rasmi which every gov servant is bind to through the aku janji. Aku janji is a document every gov servant need to sign which basically says they cant share any information without approval. Which is the caveat. Meaning the administration has the authority to authorize the sharing or use of such information with any party they see fit.\nSo, it just comes down to, how much we trust the administration and the peoples under them with the data. Will they just limit it for the use of government assistance programs or will they widen the scope in the future.",
"if that's the regulation he is referring to, then we are doomed. It is not tailored for this information age. When there is an overall poorly governed data processes, you can't fix the problem by singling out an individual and charge them with OSA (I think).\nIt also does not incentivize the organisation to improve their infosec. Say Person A stole the data because of poor internal process, he got sent to jail, when the poor internal process is the enabling factor that allowed it to happen."

"Out of boredom I checked how many of these had Malaysian heritage and how many of these are straight out naturalized. All I found are 4 Naturalized, 10 part-Malaysians and 12 actual Malaysians.\nMatthew Davies: Born in Australia, mom's from Sabah\nDaniel Ting: Born in England, dad's from Sarawak.\nDominic Tan: Born in Singapore, both parents from Penang\nDion Cools: Born in Sarawak, Malaysian mother and Belgian father\nJunior Eldstal: Born in Sabah, mom's from Sabah and dad's from Sweden.\nCorbin Ong: Born in England, mom's Malaysian Chinese and dad's from Barbados.\nStuart Wilkin: Born in England, mixed English-Malaysian blood.\nEndrick: Naturalized, from Brazil.\nBrendan Gan: Born in Australia, mom's an Aussie and dad's a Malaysian Chinese from N9.\nNatxo Insa: Born in Spain, grandma's from Sabah.\nDarren Lok: Born in England, mixed English-Malaysian Chinese, dad's from Melaka\nSumareh: Naturalized, from Gambia.\nPaulo Josue: Naturalized, from Brazil.\nRomel Morales: Naturalized, from Colombia.",

Need advice: Going to do small claims letter and police report, what’s the correct way to do it? | /r/malaysia/comments/18ybtwk/need_advice_going_to_do_small_claims_letter_and/ | 11 | [
"Education"
] | Story: Friends ran away with money and products for sale in July 2023 then kept dodging payments till now. This month, they deactivated their phone numbers and can’t be contacted at all.
Cash taken is RM800 to RM1500. Products taken is RM2000 ish.
So last resort, small claims and police. But how should I do it? Small claims only first then police report later? Or both at the same time?
Also, they don’t have social media on top of no phone numbers. I don’t have their last known address but I have their full names and bank account numbers.
Thanks in advance! | [
[
"Always police first, even if no action taken by them its black and white."
],
[
"Small claims and police are two different things.\nSmall claims is a civil action, ie for you to get back the money.\nPolice is for them to decide if it was theft, a criminal action.\nThing is, when you write \"dodging payments', indicating to me that it is a civil matter already. Most police would leave it for you to make the small claims.",
"Dodging in this case means “sorry bro my grandma just died, cannot bank in for few months”, “sorry bro, I so busy now, cannot go bank one” and “you think I so free ah? This small matter only”.\nNot a single cent paid to me and my products I dunno is sold, lost or kena makan by them."
],
[
"Unfortunately if you don't have the address, you cannot proceed with the case against them as you must serve them a copy of your claims via post or hand delivered mail.",
"i recall reading a lowyat forum thread where someone wanted to serve a small claims court suit. the judge insisted that the claimant serve the suit to the defendant personally (no post) and have the defendant acknowledge receipt of the suit. the defendant refused to entertain the claimant and the claimant had to go through hell just to serve the suit. any legal experts here can verify if that is actually the process of serving small claims suit?",
"Wah, I didn’t know the address was necessary for small claims. No choice lor, police."
],
[
"PM me i can guide you",
"Sus but okay."
],
[
"Besides being able to track them down to serve the copy of claim, think will be hard to collect even if you win a judgement, right?\nUnless they have a reputation to protect eg, you know their workplace etc.",
"Ah shit, you’re right.\nProbably won’t get my money back either way but at least with the police report they’ll get some punishment."
],
[
"bro\nhttps://mahwengkwai.com/small-claims-procedure-disputes-below-rm5000/\nhttps://legaladvice.com.my/understanding-small-claim-procedure-malaysia/\nbut u can do police report first to solidify your case\ndid u got all the relevant information ? face ? ic ? name ? address ? contract they use ? , keep all the chat message and spread wide it to let the scammer know.\nif the scammer ( defendant ) come back and file within 14 days, u have a case, it is ace attorney / detective conna time, u may bring lawyer to represent or u can represent on the day of hearing, exciting isnt ?\nThing to take note :\nCan you appeal the decision made by the court?\nIf the defendant fails to file their defence within 14 days of receiving the writ, the plaintiff can proceed with an application for judgment in default. This means the plaintiff can ask the court to enter the judgment in default in their favour without needing a trial or further proceedings.\nOnce the judgment is granted, the plaintiff can proceed to enforce the judgment. This may involve various methods, such as garnishing the defendant’s wages, seizing their assets, or obtaining a charging order on their property.\nWhat happens if both parties agree to a settlement?\nIf both parties agree to a settlement, the court will enter a consent judgment in Form 206. A consent judgment is a legal term to describe an agreement between the parties involved in a lawsuit.\nBoth parties reach a voluntary agreement, which is then presented to the court for approval. The court will review the terms of the agreement and, if satisfied, will enter it as a judgment."

Blocked by double parked cars - what would you do? | /r/malaysia/comments/18yvkkd/blocked_by_double_parked_cars_what_would_you_do/ | 118 | [] | This morning my peace was interrupted by this continuous beeping sound which I found out to be coming from a honking car outside of a condominium building just opposite to mine.
So, this guy was honking his car non stop because he's being blocked by two cars parked so closely together from each side of the road. I guess he's trying to get the attention of the owners of the cars who god knows where they were.
Okay, I pity the guy because if I was in the same situation I would be effing pissed off too but he kept honking for maybe 15-20 minutes with only 2-3 seconds pauses and it's just so freaking distruptive. It was already very annoying to me who lived in the condo across so I can't imagine how it was for the people who live at the condo just next to the scene.
In the end, the owners of the blocking cars never arrived and I watched the guy parked his car again and walked away (while throwing out a thousand curses I imagine).
If you guys were in this situation, what would you do? | [

"people who wanna get ur number of course.. double park, wait for call, ask you out :D"

"Look for number\nNo number? Honk for 15 min\nNobody came? If the car is manual, Break the rear glass, lower the handbrake push the car out of the way. If its auto, pray the gear can be disengaged from park\nOr, if im being generous, write a letter with illustrious and colorful language to the car owner about how he parked like an idiot and should never be born, stick it to his windshield, call for grab, and go to work",
"don't forget to attach free condom with the letter",
"used condom..",

[
"Take the picture then posted it to facebook community, but if i were rich, he would be famous on news website"
],
[
"Check if handbrake is engaged, most double parkers in KV, knows not to engage handbrake so others can move it around a bit to get in / out. If no contact number is given, then you decide what course of action to take based on your moral compass.\nEdit: I will most probably eff up the red car, because it feels like he is the reason for the problem.",
"If there is one more fella around, can push to rotate the red car."
],
[
"I had this problem and called up my auto insurance tow truck service which was free of charge within 150km , claimed my car broke down and needed a tow. He towed the car to the side and I let him tow my car to my destination so that he could submit pictures and claim for his side. Even gave him a RM20 token for a cup of coffee. Got a RM10 Grab Voucher gift too. Win !\nEdit : I don't know what would happen if a car was towed with the parking brake up and parking gear in, I let the owner sort it out.",

"Dude we live in the same place. Same view too!\nBut yeah, poor guy. He started honking as I was getting ready to go to work. He was still honking when I got into my car around 7am. Hope he didn't do anything rash like scratch the car blocking him",
"Oh damn haha hi building neighbour 😄 but yeah poor guy he's been honking until 7.20 like that",
"Why not? I would totally scratch the car. F*ck them."
],
[
"Put glue on their paint.\nBy the time they realized what happened it will be too late. They won't know who did it.\nSure you'll still be stuck but at least you made them hurt more than you did",
"Nah, glue the fuel cap 😈",
"Pour hot oil on the windscreen and the paintwork 👿"
],
[
"Call tow truck? And tow that mf out 😆",
"Every neighbourhood need to have 1 towtruck ready for cases like this.\nLike, reserve the last house for towtruck owner."
],
[
"i think that inconsiderate ass hole in orange Ferrari MyVi blocking the way. The black vehicle is there first (if not, the owner should go back to tadika learn ABC back). But that orange car so lazy to do parallel park or dumb enough not knowing to do it.",

"Twerk on top of their car?"

"I love living in Malaysia, but this is the most annoying and infuriating thing about living here. Sometimes I wish I was a parking police, it would bring me so much joy.\nIf the Malaysia government allowed tickets to be issued, using photo/video proof from the public. This would solve a lot of problems. If the public was incentivised by a share of commission for reporting these lazy idiots. Would be even more of an incentive."
],
[
"When your living near this lowlife Their inconsiderate This will be a daily occurrence"

"not his fault for the interruption so can't blame him.\nus in which situation, yours or his?\nin his. I might consider smashing a window if I really had to be somewhere.\nyour situation. cannot do anything la. unless you're angry enough to smash something like the other comments say, in that case, I would smash the red car since he's the one at fault."
],
[
"Double parking around apartments obstructing the already narrow roads are a pain to everyone. This here is now a lesson to also the dude who double parked. If he lives in that condo, he should invest in actually finding a lot within the facility. Condo management if competent, should contact police to summon the double parkers regularly."
],
[
"Surely going to smash every windscreen of that car that does the blocking.\nI tell you la, Malaysian otak ah, really is incomparable to other humans one wor. Other humans, if you open their skulls, you will find two brains. Malaysians, if you open their skulls, you might find a lump of tahi inside.\nThat's why you regularly see such social behavior of double parking and such. Absolutely zero ethic, zero moral, zero consideration towards others.\nAnd usually young C's would park like that. M's in general don't. At least from my place la.",
"i definitely get into rage and want to smash. the next question is who to smash?\none fucker park at corner.\nthe other one thats not parralel might be in a proper place.\nsmash the corner one?",
"Smash the one that parked mostly outside of the square marked parking spot.\nOr if too many got involved in the offense of cincai parking, then just snap a lot of photos that show their plate numbers, and then send to the local municipal for mass kompaun. Also, the address of that street. And the time.\nMake sure the photos capture the car's color, model, its plate number, and its spot outside the marked parking space.",
"That black car is in the wrong. The orange myvi is park along the stretch of other cars, so owner won't be at fault.",
"Both also wrong.",
"Haha yeah that's the dilemma, we don't know who was the last one to park 😂",
"huh. that's fair... smash both lol.",
"Bulk SMASH!",
"2 for 1",
"Wow, it would have cost you RM0 to leave the last paragraph out but you just had to huh",
"I agree. Absolutely lack of consideration for others. I’ve been in this situation before and it infuriates me that they don’t even care to apologize. Just buat muka annoyed and move their car, as if I’ve inconvenienced them to move it.",
"Nowadays anyone that commit traffic offense or parking offense, provided in public places, can now be easily reported to the relevant local municipal authority for kompaun. Just capture several screenshots of the car, its number plate, the street, and time, and you can send to the authority 100% online.\nSometimes, I realized no need to gaduh, no need to argue, no need to teach those buggers their wrong ways. Just take some pics and send to the authority, and very soon you may not see the same bugger anymore.",
"you think fines are RM30K? it is soo small it wont hurt them.",
"The fines also don't have any heavy penalty if not paid on time/at all. Tunggu saman discount saja."
],
[
"I would ram his car out of the way, welcome to my domain",
"If you do that your car also got damaged so how",

"Former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad denied involvement in the Dubai Move, claiming he has not visited the place for a long time.\nHe also took the opportunity to take potshots at Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, claiming the latter was the expert in political manoeuvrings and “backdoor governments.”\n“I’m sure many still remember the move on Sept 16, 2008, to establish a backdoor government.\n“Plus, there was also the Kajang Move to promote his wife to become the Selangor menteri besar,” Mahathir said on X, formerly known as Twitter.\n“And who can forget the ‘I have the numbers’ and ‘strong, formidable and convincing majority’ moves? All these are efforts to gain power through backdoor methods,” he added.\nLast Saturday, Community Communications Department (J-Kom) deputy director-general Ismail Yusop claimed there was a plot to topple the federal government.\nHe said the plan, dubbed Dubai Move, arose during a recent vacation by Perikatan Nasional leaders, as well as government backbenchers, to the United Arab Emirates (UAE).\nIsmail also claimed a meeting took place during the visit to assign specific tasks to “agents” responsible for identifying MPs who might switch their support to the opposition with inducements.\nOn Tuesday, Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi confirmed the plot, alleging the movement not only involved PN leaders but certain individuals from the government bloc as well.\nTaking a swipe at Anwar, Mahathir said that the latter’s efforts back then were not considered treasonous despite its potential effects on the nation’s democracy and economy.\n“As long as he can become prime minister, all his backdoor manoeuvrings are considered halal and virtuous,” the former Langkawi MP added.\n******\nUncle ni kuat lagi with tones of BS"

"Not with neighboring countries, unless militant Islam becomes mainstream. Let's see then whether a racial war won't erupt first at home, if a jihad is called.\nGeopolitically, the country is also enjoying having third-party buffers at the outer borders. The insurgency in southern Thailand, the religious affinity with Sumatra conservatism, Johor's closer relations with S'pore, the indigenous land conflicts in Kalimantan, all of them will complicate any warmongering aspirations.\nThe more acute scenario is whether you will want to volunteer to defend the Spratlys, or Msia's exclusive economic zone, if China starts building artificial islands housing military installations & runways over there. It'll be akin to Taiwanese conscripts being posted to Kinmen & Matsu islands, within range of enemy bombardment without necessitating any amphibious invasion.\nThat said, the MAF still hasn't fully converted from counterinsurgency to conventional army to this day, partly due to operational requirements (primarily facing only localized territorial disputes like the 2013 Lahad Datu incursion) & partly hampered by upgrading woes (due to corruption or poor willpower).\nM'sia's past conscription attempts were also subpar, clearly aimed at other (commendable) motives like racial bonding & nation building instead of true military training. I still remember the incredulity when PLKN 1.0 (2003-2005), originally planned for 2 years, was halved several times until it was reduced to just 3 months. PLKN 2.0 (2016-2018) was just 8 weeks. PLKN 3.0, if implemented, will supposedly take only 45 days.\nCompared that to S'pore, which mandated 2 years for NS in the 1960s, increased it to 3 years in the 1970s, 2 to 2.5 years in the 1980s, & currently 2 years. The latter (shortened service) had even caused consternation among old hands, since BMT typically required 3 months, vocational training another 3 months (6 & 9 months respectively for NCO & OCS courses), unit training cycle another 6-9 months (necessary proficiency tests at the platoon, company & battalion levels to attain REDCON status & became operational) before everyone entered reservist. The past SG NS batches used to train for 2 operational cycles (& also took part in more brigade & even divisional exercises), but the current generation just do basically 1 cycle & defer further progress into reservist (now renamed ORNS to reflect their frontline status).\nYet M'sia governments past & present think only a fraction of that duration/commitment/personal sacrifice is needed to implement a plausible conscription system, let alone build a credible military force!"
