Recently the Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party (PAS) Youth Chief, Ahmad Fadhli Saari has been hit with hard criticisms over his visit to a cinema in Kuala Lumpur in support of the premier of the local film &ldquo;Mat Kilau&rdquo;.
Read: <a href="https://myc.com.my/articles/1372/pas-youth-chief-slammed-for-double-standards-after-visiting-cinema-to-watch-mat-kilau">PAS Youth Chief Slammed For Double Standards After Visiting Cinema To Watch &ldquo;Mat Kilau&rdquo;</a>
As some of you may know the state of Kelantan does not have a single cinema as the party rules PAS had deemed it a source of maksiat (social ills).
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1656656239/unsigned/g9fcw9wpfjkvls62fw51.jpg" />
&nbsp;
According to the state Deputy Menteri besar, Datuk Mohd Amar Abdullah, the state has not received any complains about the absence of cinemas in the state over the last 30 years of rulership under PAS. He even stated that the people of the state don&rsquo;t think that a cinema is a necessity for them.
&ldquo;We (the PAS government) discussed at length the pros and cons of cinema during the time of (former menteri besar) Tok Guru (the late Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat) based on the circumstances and needs. So, we decided not to allow cinemas (to operate in Kelantan) and that is our stand,&rdquo; he said during an interview with YouTuber Feng Ren Guan.
Watch the interview below:

Why go to a cinema when you have Netflix?
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1656656348/unsigned/nzb308ayvsptz0y67mlq.webp" />
&nbsp;
One thing he argued is stating that those in Kelantan don&rsquo;t require a cinema as they can watch movies via steaming services or other platforms online.
But when you think of this, wouldn&rsquo;t streaming movies via Netflix be worse for those who are religious in Kelantan as some Netflix if not most movies and shows do not have any censorship. 
Even netizens argued the logic behind it and asked who had answered the survey as some seem to be unaware of it.

Cinemas #Haram In Kelantan? No Problem, There’s Always Netflix

Ever wanted to go on a real-life treasure hunt?
Well there is one that is happening right now in Greenland, however they are not quite looking for any hidden gemstones or jewels- they are looking for minerals.
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1660020754/unsigned/tjho9nycbx98eexmfjno.gif" alt="" width="527" height="294" />
Some of the world&rsquo;s wealthiest men including Michael Bloomberg, Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, among others, are funding an ongoing treasure hunt, one that comes with complete helicopters and transmitters, on the west coast of Greenland.
Below the surface of the hills and valleys of Greenland&rsquo;s Disko Island and Nuussuaq Peninsula, the group of billionaires is hoping to find enough critical minerals that can power hundreds of millions of electric vehicles.
"We are looking for a deposit that will be the first- or second-largest most significant&nbsp;<a href="https://www.cnn.com/2022/06/01/cars/tesla-lfp-battery/index.html">nickel and cobalt</a>&nbsp;deposit in the world," Kurt House, CEO of Kobold Metals, told CNN.
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1660020800/unsigned/cwxqoi60rmsfa0zwfxew.gif" alt="" />
Thirty geophysicists, &nbsp;geologists, cooks, pilots and mechanics are camped at the site where Kobold Metals and Blujay Mining are searching for the buried treasure that are necessary to build electric vehicles and massive&nbsp;<a href="https://www.cnn.com/2022/02/22/cars/electric-vehicle-battery-supply-chain/index.html">batteries to store renewable energy</a>.
The exploration crew will be flying drones and helicopters with transmitters to carefully measure the electromagnetic field of the subsurface, as well as using artificial intelligence to analyse the data and map the layers of rock below.
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn.cnn.com/cnnnext/dam/assets/220808122509-04-greenland-melting-mineral-mining-climate-action-exlarge-169.jpg" alt="A Kobold Metals worker in Greenland." width="600" height="337" />

"It is a concern to witness the consequences and impacts from the climate changes in Greenland," Bluejay Mining CEO Bo M&oslash;ller Stensgaard told CNN. "But, generally speaking, climate changes overall have made exploration and mining in Greenland easier and more accessible."&nbsp;
Here&rsquo;s a first-hand look into the Greenland mineral exploration by CNN.

Climate Change
The melting sea of ice around Greenland has helped the mining industry in terms of equipment shipping and mineral exploration, and with the current trends continuing into the future, &ldquo;there is no question more land will become accessible and some of this land may carry the potential for mineral development," Mike Sfraga, the chair of the United States Arctic Research Commission, told CNN.
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1660020998/unsigned/dcdqrj9sy6kignxkra1l.gif" alt="" width="582" height="582" />
However, with the rising temperatures and extensive melting of Greenland&rsquo;s ice sheet, the global sea level is increasing at a rapid pace each day, with the ice sheet melting quickly from its bottom base upwards, injecting far more water and ice into the ocean than previous predictions.
So far, there is already a whopping 6 billions tons of ice melted every day, meaning that existing coastal cities are already slowly shrinking, and most likely will be covered by water in the near future.

Why Is There A Treasure Hunt in Greenland?

Ever since the fall of the economy, more people started to work in the p-hailing services to survive. And now the economy is not fully recovered yet, there are still people who are struggling to buy a single meal.
Transport Minister, Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong took an initiative to help these people by lowering the age limit for vocational license for p-hailing services to 18.
Despite the criticism he received, he ensures that more people will be welcomed to join the gig economy with this proposal.
<img src="https://media.thestar.com.my/Prod/588B4437-5D08-487A-9926-A3A55A86B924" alt="Six-year-old video of Wee Ka Siong being circulated | The Star" />
Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong said: "Keluarga Malaysia are allowed to work as p-hailing riders when they acquire a competency license in the motorcycle class (B2).
"They will then be able to obtain a vocational license for the sole purpose of working.
"These are proposed amendments to Commercial Vehicles Licensing Board Act 1987 and Land Public Transport Act 2010 which will be debated in the next parliamentary session."
The Transport Minister said that he heard all the questions and concerns from the people.
<img src="https://images.yourstory.com/cs/2/f49f80307d7911eaa66f3b309d9a28f5/Imagerd7x-1657718866312.jpg?fm=auto&amp;ar=2:1&amp;mode=crop&amp;crop=faces" alt="YourStory | gig economy" />
However, he urges people to look at the current state of Malaysia. Food delivery services can be someone&rsquo;s main source of income, even in rural areas.
With this proposal, those who finished school would be able to work right after, as long as they have the least of the Motorcycle Competency License (B2) and the Goods Driving License (GDL).
This is where the problem chimed in. Despite the urges from the p-hailing drivers to cancel the GDL requirement, transport minister firmly said that:
"GDL is important to ensure that riders will attend the driving course. We want them to work in a safe environment and obey all traffic rules.
"This is why we need to regulate the responsibility of the delivery riders to avoid unwanted problems and finger pointing if it happens,"
But it left people with more rage:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-conversation="none">
Could suggest to <a href="https://twitter.com/weekasiongmp?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@weekasiongmp</a> to start a licensing requirement for MPs and Cabinet to ensure hare brains don't qualify. To have a bike rider obtain a GDL to deliver food is .. I would say insane but this level of thinking is beyond regular folks comprehension, I suppose

Some say that it is indeed a good move to ensure the safety of the riders, however, the fee required has to be reasonable too:

Government To Lower The Age Limit For Vocational License To 18 Causes Rage

Have you ever tried to get your hands on a specific item used by your favourite KPOP idol or K-Drama actor?
Well, you might want to act fast if you are interested in getting the same pair of headphones that is used by the one and only WooYoung Woo from the popular Netflix hit-drama &lsquo;Extraordinary Attorney Woo&rsquo;.
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1659954308/unsigned/unwedrnygr35bdex0zal.jpg" alt="" width="560" height="315" />
The Headphones
The headphones worn by WooYoung Woo (played by actress Park EunBin) are getting much attention. Well, maybe a bit too much?
The popular headphones are products of the German brand &lsquo;Sennheiser&rsquo; and it often used by the main protagonist of the show, who is a character with autism spectrum disorder.
Many speculate that she wears the black over-the ear headphones to help block the surrounding sound, as she reacts sensitively to all noises and sounds around her.
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1659953648/unsigned/ugl6awvwisihewwodsqp.gif" alt="" width="543" height="403" />
Thanks to the growing popularity of &lsquo;Extraordinary Attorney Woo&rsquo;, the Sennheiser headphones are currently said to be in short supply in South Korea, due to extremely high demands for the product.
If so many people are purchasing it, does that mean the product is on a budget-friendly price range?
Well, not quite. Of course when compared to Apple&rsquo;s AirMax (RM2399), the Sennheiser headphones are much more affordable, with its price tags ranging between 300,000 won to 400,000 won. That&rsquo;s&rsquo; between RM 1025,30 to RM1367,07.
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1659953751/unsigned/jcq4xdvgnrsefmrjgvgc.gif" alt="" width="480" height="480" />
All in all, if you want to own something similar to a K-Drama character, or you really are just looking for a good pair of headphones, the Sennheiser is one of the greatest options among other sound equipment brands, as it offers comfortability with its noise cancelling headphones.
What do you think of Attorney Woo&rsquo;s headphones? Would you consider buying it? &nbsp;Do share your thoughts and let us know in the comments.

Kepelbagaian kursus yang ditawarkan di institusi pengajian tinggi menjadika ia tempat yang strategik bagi siswa siswi menceburi pelbagai bidang dan seterusnya menjadi individu yang serba boleh.
Dalam konteks komuniti pula, menceburi pelbagai bidang dapat mengalakkan kerjasama di antara orang yang berlainan kemahiran untuk menghasilkan produk yang bermanfaat untuk mereka di dalam bidang yang berkenaan.
Sebagai contoh, 5 pelajar dari kursus perubatan dan kejuruteraan Taylor&rsquo;s University menyahut cabaran untuk meneruskan satu projek akhir tahun kursus kejuruteraan.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1659948590/unsigned/jugolvcjjetdppqnvv9q.png" />
Mereka bekerjasama dalam menghasilkan prototaip &ldquo;Bismuth-PETG filament&rdquo;:
&ldquo;Bismuth (Bi) dan polyethylene terephthalate glycol (PETG) adalah bahan yang dipilih untuk menghasilkan Bi-based komposisi polimer, ia boleh dicetak dengan printer 3D untuk mengahsilkan pengadang radiasi mengikut kesuaian individu&rdquo;, jelas salah seorang pelajar kumpulan itu.
Pengadang Radiasi= Pakaian pelindung yang digunakan untuk melindungi pesakit atau pekerja medik dari radiasi secara terus mahupun sekunder semasa pemeriksaan imej di hospital, klinik dan klinik perigigian.
Apakah yang mereka ingin ketengahkan?
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://apicms.thestar.com.my/uploads/images/2022/07/12/1656178.jpg" alt="Chan believes interdisciplinary projects are important training for future careers." width="167" height="249" />
Menurut salah seorang pelajar perubatan, Shannen Kay Chan, 21, pegadang radiasi yang ada di pasaran kini menggunakan bahan plumbum yang mengandungi bahan toksik yang membahayakan:
&nbsp;
&ldquo;Pengadang radiasi konvensional yang digunakan dalam jabatan radiologi mengandungi bahan berasakan plumbum untuk melindungi pegawai perubatan daripada pendedahan radiasi yang berlebihan&rdquo;
&nbsp;
&ldquo;Disebalik keberkesanannya, bahan yang berasakan plumbum ini mengandungi toksik dan tidak mesra alam. Sehubungan dengan itu, pakaian perlindungan berasakan plumbum ini berat dan boleh menyebabkan bebanan musculoskeletal terhadap pegawai tersebut setelah penggunaan yang lama. Kami mendapati bahan Bismuth-PETG ini tidak mengandungi toksik dan boleh diubah suai mengikut penggunaan di dalam industri perubatan.&rdquo;
&nbsp;
Oleh itu, dengan menggunakan bahan asas polimer, mereka dapat menghasilkan pengadang radiasi yang bebas toksik dan mesra alam. Ia juga terbukti lebih murah dan boleh diubahsuai mengikut keperluan penggunaan individu.
Dengan harapan produk ini smapai ke tahap yang seterusnya, mereka menyertai 2021 inter-university Engineering Innovation Challenge.
Acara ini dikelolakan oleh Institut Kejuruiteraan Singapura (IES) dan Kementerian Pendidikan Singapura.
Berkat usaha 5 pelajar itu dan tunjuk ajar dari para pendidik dari Taylor&rsquo;s University, mereka telah Berjaya membawa pulang pingat emas dari pertandingan itu.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1659949125/unsigned/eiaif5li8lzs6kpkq56i.gif" />
Berikut adalah ucapan penghargaan dari pihak penyelia:
Prof Dr Yeong Chai Hong berkata bahawa:
&ldquo;Pada awalnya, matlamat kami bukanlah untuk memenangi pertandingan itu, namun dengan kerjasama para pelajar dan juga hasil komunikasi dengan pakar dari pelbagai bidang, pelajar-pelajar ini telah berjaya mencapai satu tahap yang luar biasa secara berkumpulan.&rdquo;
&ldquo;Dalam kerjasama yang melibatkan pelbagai bidang, kita perlu faham dengan keperluan satu sama lain, menyepadukan pelbagai ilmu, dan akhiranya memenuhi ruang-rang kosong dalam penghasilan produk yang memberi manfaat kepada industri yang terlibat.&rdquo;
Apa yang boleh dipelajari dari kejayaan mereka?
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1659949415/unsigned/qxmmikhbslgultosq5uz.gif" />
Kejayaan mereka mengajar kita untuk sentiasa berani dalam menyahut cabaran walaupun ia melibatkan bidang kerja yang kita tidak mahir. Belajarlah sesuatu yang baharu sementara masih ada peluang dan ruang, terutamanya ketika masih berada di institut pengajian tinggi.
Selain itu, pihak institusi pengajian tinggi sendiri perlulah menggalakan kolaborasi di antara pelajar berlainan bidang seperti mengadakan &ldquo;Pameran Projek Akhir Tahun&rdquo; secara besar-besaran.
Dengan pendedahan sebegini, pelajar dapat sedikit sebanyak mengambil tahu tentang bidang kerja dari pelajar yang berlainan kursus dan kemahiran. Oleh itu, semua pihak hendaklah memainkan peranan dalam menormalisasikan kerjasama antara pelajar berlainan bidang.

Isn&rsquo;t it heartwarming to know that those resident cats were rescued by the owner? By opening this cat cafe, the owner hopes to bring awareness to the rescued cats as well as find them new homes. It is not only a cafe, but a place to seek adoption for cats.&nbsp;

5 Pet Cafes That You Would Love To Visit in KL and Selangor

Nothing can get your blood boiling up such as a traffic jam. Imagine just sitting in the car in traffic for a couple of hours just to cover a short distance.
<img src="https://media4.giphy.com/media/3o7qE3a5YpLpCdeq0U/giphy.gif?cid=790b7611eeedb5be4409c46e5d3f5d2b990d647d502af13e&amp;rid=giphy.gif&amp;ct=g" alt="Angry Traffic Jam GIF by Monstercat" />
&nbsp;
While in traffic, it is not uncommon for us to run into a rude and inconsiderate driver on the road. From those who flip you off for cutting lanes or not giving enough space and to those who use the emergency lane to breeze through the traffic.
This time around we bring a story coming from Singapore&rsquo;s Tuas Second Link. The last time we went on social media, a Singaporean woman and her son made headlines after being caught on camera for road rage and cutting the line to the queue.
<img src="https://static.mothership.sg/1/2022/07/ezgif.com-gif-maker-22.gif" />

Now, we have a Honda driver who bizarrely waved his passport out the window while cutting into another driver&rsquo;s queue at the Tuas Second Link on Aug 6.
The dashcam footage was posted by Facebook user Joanna Loh. She had <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AhQii97/posts/pfbid02FG9dcR72ja8hq9TkEhA1rMAWmXA5jt3MLfksUW9SrDq3NtLvi84SicFqqYBG4TSxl">shared</a> that she and her sister had drove over to the Tuas Checkpoint at 7am and only got to customs at 8am. Unfortunately, they had then found themselves in a 4-hour long traffic jam due to the long National Day weekend in Singapore.
Honda driver causes a scene
<iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?height=314&amp;href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FAhQii97%2Fvideos%2F1018172958853452%2F&amp;show_text=false&amp;width=560&amp;t=0" width="560" height="314" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
&nbsp;
According to the time stamp on the dashcam, the footage showed that the incident happened at 12:38pm where the black Honda which had a Malaysian license plate cutting her from the left lane.
The driver had stuck his head out of his window and stared at both Loh and her sister. Loh also says she was not in the wrong as the driver had not used his signal light and added that if he were to do so, she would have been more than willing to give him way.
The driver had later closed his window, making Loh and her sister think that he&rsquo;s done raging after they had not allowed him to cut the queue. Oddly enough, he later had &ldquo;flexed&rdquo; at them by waiving his Malaysian passport.
<img src="https://static.mothership.sg/1/2022/08/ezgif.com-gif-maker1-1.gif" />
Loh had wrote that she was unsure why the driver had the need to show off his passport but assumed it due to her driving a Singapore-registered car.
&ldquo;We are also Malaysians! Just because we drive a Singapore-registered car doesn&rsquo;t mean we are Singaporeans nor are we to be bullied by you. Is a Malaysian passport your trump card? As Malaysians, we are deeply ashamed by your behaviour,&rdquo; she wrote.
Oh, that&rsquo;s not the end of it, while in traffic, the man had later got out of his car and pointed at his license place showing off the registry to be from Johor.
<iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?height=314&amp;href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FAhQii97%2Fvideos%2F379215437628681%2F&amp;show_text=false&amp;width=560&amp;t=0" width="560" height="314" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
&nbsp;
After giving the two a thumbs up, the driver returned to his vehicle and continued to crawl in traffic. Thankfully no other incidents had happened along the way as it could have gotten worse.
Netizens amused and frustrated over the situation
Since sharing the post, it has garnered 2.5K reactions, 2K comments and 3.7K shares at the time of writing this.
With no surprise, the driver of the Honda was condemned for his behaviour for acting like a road bully.
Here are some of the comments:
&ldquo;He&rsquo;ll soon end up like the red car lady&rdquo;
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1659939922/unsigned/kifj5oevnlocihgrafx5.png" /> 
&ldquo;So this is how the Malaysian passport is used&rdquo;
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1659939933/unsigned/d6ohxp6cmkhqnj1k7zca.png" /> 
&ldquo;Who said Singapore&rsquo;s passport is the best? Malaysia&rsquo;s is more powerful; you can cut queue wherever you go&rdquo;
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1659939949/unsigned/fdxaesfo8ku9fdklmdxj.png" />
&nbsp;
And just when you thought it was bad enough that a Malaysian is bullying other Malaysians, one netizen even joked about placing a bet on the Honda driver&rsquo;s license plate.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1659939980/unsigned/xsoi60nbuly9xxtdjjyw.png" />
&nbsp;
Well Malaysians, there are some lessons that can be learnt here.
Lesson 1: Always use your signal lights when you want to cut lanes. 
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1659940020/unsigned/utg8m4gma2o6taqnyvq4.jpg" />
&nbsp;
Lesson 2: Be more considerate to other drivers out there.
Remember one thing, we live in the age where social media is one of if not the most powerful tool out there. Once you&rsquo;re out there, there&rsquo;s no going back.

#RoadRage: M’sian Man Flashes Passport To Cut Queue At SG’s Tuas Second Link

If you live in the heart of Kuala Lumpur or even Petaling Jaya, you know for a fact that many of us Malaysians drive every day. Despite having public transportation, many of us tend to agree that it&rsquo;s better to drive to your destination as it can be slightly more cost effective and faster than public transport.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1659928275/unsigned/vj8agc89z2hjyrmuqe59.jpg" />
&nbsp;
But if there&rsquo;s one thing no one wants to experience when driving is to be involved in an accident or more specifically, a car crash. When a car crash happens, we all know that most of the time, our air bags are meant to deploy and they can help reduce the chances of our upper body or even head to strike any of the interior parts of the vehicle.
<img src="https://www.gizmodo.com.au/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/17/icw9nlwsqjg6ixm5hmhs.gif" />
&nbsp;
Recently, a netizen took to Twitter to complain about the airbags on a Proton X70 which did not deploy after being involved in a crash.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
X70 accident, lepastu airbag tak function. Quality apoooo Proton???? <a href="https://t.co/wRc42CfGkA">pic.twitter.com/wRc42CfGkA</a>
&mdash; Anaz. iDevice repair 📱 (@annazrulan) <a href="https://twitter.com/annazrulan/status/1555194033076830209?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 4, 2022</a></blockquote>
Due to the incident, many had raised questions about the quality of the car as it&rsquo;s still relatively new in the market. To be fair, the Proton X70 is one of the only Proton cars that is being imported from overseas. In 2019, the car was assembled in Ningbo, Zhejiang, China and was only brought for local assembly in Tanjung Malim in 2020. Currently, the car is also assembled in Karachi, Pakistan since the year 2021.
In the tweet, the car was seen by the roadside after hitting a divider and it the incident looks like it happened along the Karak highway heading towards Genting Sempah.
So, the question remains, should all airbags deploy in an accident?
A debate had sparked within the community online and many had given their opinions on why the airbags did not deploy.
From speculations of passengers not wearing their seatbelts to defective sensors on the car.
Here are some of the debated questions:
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-conversation="none">
Antara sebab airbag tak deploy 1. Tak pakai seatbelt 2. Crash tak kena sensor 3. Crash tak cukup padu untuk airbag deployment, seatbelt je dah memadai 4. Airbag system rosak 5. Cinggey

Bro, kwn aku bru je excident selasa lps. Dia pakai honda civic, airbag tak keluar juga. Takyah laa nk pandang rendah sgt dgn kualiti proton. Brand lain je problem sama, bezanya tak kecoh sbb malu beli kete mahal2 tpi airbag tak function. Apooo

<script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Impact tak cukup kuat untuk trigger control unit menggerakkan airbag. Dalam erti kata lain, Crash tersebut dianggap minor oleh control unit &amp; seatbelt sahaja sudah mencukupi.

<script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Among many who debated, one tweet stood out as it showed the diagram of the collision sensors on the front of the X70.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-conversation="none">
Nampak macam tak kena sensor la. Ada 2, satu belakang grill satu kat bawah (?) headlamp kiri. Nampak dua2 tempat ni macam cantik lagi. Ada satu sensor lagi kat side kiri. Belah kanan tak tau ada ke tak. Entah la aku x70 ni setakat pernah pam tayar je <a href="https://t.co/DibFH1PYWA">pic.twitter.com/DibFH1PYWA</a>
&mdash; Bengkel Bawah Pokok (@mekanikkampung) <a href="https://twitter.com/mekanikkampung/status/1555556488873390080?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">August 5, 2022</a></blockquote>

<script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

After looking at the image of the sensor placement and the condition of the vehicle after the accident, it may have been possible that the sensor did not register the impact as a severe accident. Typically, an accident below 25 kmph is considered as a non-severe accident and if the crumple zone of the car is not affected.
As of now, Proton has not released any statement on the viral incident but looks like we&rsquo;ll have to wait and see in the future.
Let&rsquo;s just hope that something like this wouldn&rsquo;t happen either (Disclaimer, the video below is only for joke purposes)

Deploy Or Not Deploy? Netizens Debate Over New Car's Airbag After It Crashes

Let&rsquo;s talk about Gig Workers.
Gig workers is a person who works a temporary job and is typically in the service sector. Yes, people who freelance very much fall into this category but don&rsquo;t forget, even our food delivery riders are considered gig workers.
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1659680179/unsigned/yz58erzlmzhtcwh86qvi.png" />
&nbsp;
Most of the time, these riders don&rsquo;t have a fixed income and are all solely depend on the number of deliveries and working hours but looks like airasia Super App and airasia Food owner Capital A Bhd have good news for their gig workers as they had announced a full-time employment with a minimum salary of RM3,000!
Tan Sri Tony Fernandes said that alongside the attractive basic salary, riders will also receive perks such as Employee Providence Fund (EPF) and Social Security Organisations (Socso) savings account, medical coverage, annual leaves and even travel benefits.
<img src="https://thumbs.gfycat.com/GargantuanOffbeatCockatoo-size_restricted.gif" />
&nbsp;
&ldquo;We are thrilled to be welcoming the riders into our family. As many people know, airasia has always been about people, and we believe that people are our greatest asset. This applies across all of Capital A&rsquo;s business units, including the airasia Super App.&rdquo;

The company says that they don&rsquo;t believe in contract staff and is now making the move towards employing all their riders as full-time employees. They will receive the same benefits that every Allstar receives as well as excellent benefits from airasia food &amp; airasia Xpress. 
Concerns on overload of applicants
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1659680248/unsigned/frbevex6ilhb8lxsy8go.jpg" />
&nbsp;
Now that they are offering all these benefits, surely many people will be interested in applying for the job, right? Head of delivery Lim Ben-Jie had addressed on the issue of overload of applicants.
He says that for now, they will not have any concern as applicants will be subjected to a proper screening process before being hired. 
If it&rsquo;s one thing for sure is that airasia food and airasia Xpress will be seeing a growth of riders. They also noted that this will be a positive thing for the company as they strive to become one of the significant players in the industry such as what Grab and FoodPanda has achieve. 
If you&rsquo;re on the look out for a job then now is the time as AirAsia is still looking to grow as they only have 20 permanent riders for now. 
Aside from the company offering the full-time positions, they even rewarded six new full-time riders with two motorbikes and at least 10 flight tickets. 
Is this an answer to the delivery service strike happening today?
<img src="https://cdn1.myc.com.my/image/upload/v1659680268/unsigned/mcjsrqumu1hc1ekhoips.jpg" />
&nbsp;
Read: <a href="https://myc.my/articles/1521/delivery-riders-are-planning-to-strike-for-24-hours">Delivery Riders Are Planning To Strike For 24 Hours</a>
Currently, a protest is going on due to riders being provoked by their companies cutting their wages and requesting them to work longer hours if they want to acquire their targeted wages. Many of the riders had also demanded the delivery platforms to contribute to EPF and Socso and offer them full-time employment instead as they are risking it all to make deliveries every day.
&ldquo;In Malaysia, we have one of the highest (road) accident rates in the world and when they (the riders) get involved in an accident, what happens is that they do not have insurance and medical coverage. And if they are unable to work, they will lose their source of income. If they are unable to work for a long period of time, there is no compensation or protection that should be protected by Socso,&rdquo; said Strategy Director of PKR Youth, Bryan Ng Yih Miin.
It's great to see AirAsia put the effort in hiring full-timers for those working in the gig economy sector. Now we shall see what their competitors have to say about it.
