If you think of Malayan Tigers, what is the first thing that comes to your mind? I can bet you it is probably one of these coat of arms or logos.<figure class="image"><img src="https://admin.myc.com.my/storage/photos/shares/National-Animal-of-Malaysia.jpg" alt=""></figure>Image via <a href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fhype.my%2F2014%2F26530%2Fmalaysias-national-animal-fighting-to-exist-in-our-world%2F&amp;psig=AOvVaw2_x7H6nrESJT9qyIrlszy8&amp;ust=1618366051869000&amp;source=images&amp;cd=vfe&amp;ved=0CAIQjRxqFwoTCJisktCS-u8CFQAAAAAdAAAAABAD">Hype MY</a>&nbsp;Regardless what you associate the Malayan Tiger to, this majestic creature is the national animal of Malaysia!. A fierce and powerful apex predator, it represents the courage and strength of our beloved country. Therefore, it is with a heavy heart to announce that on 12 April 2021, Malayan Tigers are in danger of going extinct in the next five to 10 years if no drastic action is taken soon according to Taiping Zoo and Night Safari director Dr Kevin Lazarus.<figure class="image"><img src="https://media3.giphy.com/media/lKWlXRBGltz2g/200.gif?cid=ecf05e471q3zhfq1wxlsdjhr8oald2c4w6co7k45yndzyukp&amp;rid=200.gif&amp;ct=g" alt="Sad Right In The Feels GIF"></figure>&nbsp;But, is it too late to save them?Dr Kevin’s suggestion to prevent extinction would be to facilitate breeding conservation and research on Malayan Tigers. He mentioned that Taiping Zoo and Night Safari is having programmes with Wildlife and National Parks Department (Perhilitan) and zoos to help in captive breeding and population increase of the critically endangered animal.<figure class="image"><img src="https://admin.myc.com.my/storage/photos/shares/zootaipingnightsafari-1582430821921.jpg" alt=""></figure>Image via <a href="https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tunehotels.com%2Fblog%2Ftop-4-absolute-must-see-attractions-when-youre-visiting-taiping-perak%2F&amp;psig=AOvVaw3C3SziQkHwmHMjdvuVS5Ui&amp;ust=1618367764528000&amp;source=images&amp;cd=vfe&amp;ved=0CAIQjRxqFwoTCPjC8O-X-u8C">Tune Hotels</a>&nbsp;This current update was reported by Dr Kevin in conjunction with the first birthday celebration of Malayan tiger cubs at the Taiping Zoo and Night Safari.

Malayan Tigers are beautiful animals and are often hunted for their fur, bones, and body parts for illegal luxury and medicinal purposes. These illegal animal poachers should be heavily penalized.

&nbsp;At its Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC 2026), Apple unveiled a wide range of new child safety features spanning iPhone, iPad, Mac and other devices. While much of the spotlight was on the introduction of Siri AI and Apple Intelligence, the company also placed strong emphasis on giving parents more control over their children&rsquo;s digital experiences.
The updates are designed to help families manage who children can communicate with, what content they can access, and how apps deliver age-appropriate experiences. Apple says the changes build on its existing Screen Time and Family Sharing tools, expanding them to meet growing global concerns around online safety for minors.
Parents gain control over who children can contact
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/838939b8fa94190425ffa0fa578b57e614ec8d6290c5346862672317e0604bbc" />
One of the key additions is a new communication approval system. Under the upcoming iOS 27 update, parents will be able to approve or decline requests when their child attempts to message, call, or FaceTime a new contact.
This means children will need parental approval before interacting with unfamiliar phone numbers across Messages, Phone and FaceTime, adding an extra safeguard to prevent unwanted or unsafe communication.
Apple is also extending these controls through a new PermissionKit framework, allowing developers to build apps where children must request approval before chatting, following, or adding new users.
&ldquo;Ask to Browse&rdquo; and safer web experiences
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://r2.myc.my/126fd0186e694171a781fbd60f6f76e0e2122ae016597675e6de1012f54f681c" />
Apple is introducing a new &ldquo;Ask to Browse&rdquo; feature, which requires children to request permission before accessing specific websites or surfing the internet more freely.
This expands Apple&rsquo;s existing parental controls, which already include content restrictions, screen time limits, and app usage monitoring through Family Sharing. Parents will also be able to apply more detailed controls such as time-of-day restrictions, daily usage limits, and instant app pauses for family moments.
Stronger content safety and age-appropriate apps
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://r2.myc.my/bb5e343480d7b919d55f9011cfd4ea3cabf4989559aa301a732efcb4f071e299" />
Communication Safety tools are also being upgraded. Apple will now automatically detect and blur sensitive content, including nudity, across Messages, AirDrop, contact posters and FaceTime video calls. On-device machine learning is used to flag such content before a child views or sends it.
In addition, Apple is introducing a Declared Age Range API, which allows apps to access a child&rsquo;s age range without collecting their exact birth date. This is designed to help developers deliver more suitable content while reducing unnecessary data collection.
The App Store will also be updated with more detailed age ratings, giving parents clearer guidance when selecting apps for their children.
Easier setup for child accounts and improved Screen Time
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/33d5f3a7a516378d7c5aad80c2731241c3123e109cb896582774d570ef42d4a4" />
Apple is making Child Account setup simpler during device onboarding. Parents will be able to configure safety settings more quickly, while default protections will still apply even if a child is not fully added to a family group.
Child Accounts remain required for users under 13 and available up to age 18.
Screen Time is also being redesigned, offering a clearer overview of device usage, most-used apps and recommended controls. Parents can now adjust permissions instantly, extend app access when needed, or limit usage during key moments such as meals or study time.
Wider debate around online safety and regulation
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/ea437a211e17d6ce4a8cf511cf0dcc1ec07e415ad1f2b6692dcb0f0e7a6fac78" />
Apple&rsquo;s announcement comes amid increasing global pressure on tech companies to improve protections for children online. In the UK, regulators have been tightening requirements around age-appropriate design, while countries like Australia and others are introducing or considering restrictions on underage social media access.
In Malaysia, the MCMC has proposed measures requiring social media users under 16 to verify their age using MyKad or official identification documents.
However, Apple&rsquo;s WWDC presentation was also met with protest outside its headquarters, where advocacy groups criticised the company over the continued availability of child sexual abuse material (CSAM) online and called for stronger action.
Rollout across Apple&rsquo;s ecosystem
The new child safety features will roll out alongside Apple&rsquo;s next major software updates, including iOS 27, iPadOS 27, macOS 27, watchOS 27, visionOS 27 and tvOS 27 later this year.
Apple says the goal is to give parents better tools to guide their children&rsquo;s digital habits while maintaining privacy, security and a balanced online experience.

Apple Rolls Out Expanded Child Safety Features Across Devices At WWDC 2026

For decades, Malaysia has been recognised as a multicultural nation where people of different backgrounds and faiths live alongside one another. While the country has long hosted refugees and displaced communities seeking safety, public sentiment towards the Rohingya community has become increasingly divided in recent months.
Social media has seen growing criticism, heated debates and calls for stricter action, particularly following several viral incidents that have reignited discussions over their presence in the country.
Who Are the Rohingya and Why Are They in Malaysia?
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/4826461ee26a302c751b731f95e42a79cc7b52121e93f8fc47587f85a3b61dde" />
The Rohingya are a Muslim ethnic minority originally from Myanmar&rsquo;s Rakhine State. For years, they have faced persecution, discrimination and violence in their homeland, forcing many to flee in search of safety. Malaysia has become one of the destinations for Rohingya refugees due to its Muslim-majority population and relative stability, although the country does not formally recognise refugees under domestic law.
Many Rohingya families have since built lives in Malaysia while waiting for long-term resettlement opportunities through international agencies. However, issues surrounding undocumented migration, employment, housing and public resources have continued to fuel debate among Malaysians.
Viral Four-Storey &ldquo;Flat&rdquo; Sparks Public Concern
<iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?height=476&amp;href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Freel%2F1526103309220755%2F&amp;show_text=false&amp;width=267&amp;t=0" width="267" height="476" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>&nbsp;
The latest controversy erupted after an old video recorded by radio personality and actor Pak Azad resurfaced online, showing what appeared to be a four-storey building hidden within Sungai Tekali, Hulu Langat.
Initially stumbling upon the structure while travelling for a filming session, Pak Azad expressed shock at its unusual appearance, questioning whether it had been self-built rather than developed through conventional construction methods. The building featured unfinished brickwork, zinc roofing over corridor walkways and what appeared to be improvised water and electrical connections, prompting many online to question its legality and safety.
The footage quickly spread across social media, with many alleging that the building was occupied by members of the Rohingya community and had been constructed without official approval.
Authorities Point To Landowners As The Root Cause
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/9eb023c087c5a3a329e9971a053fca586dbb701a34506fd8cff25b6ceb432c90" />
Following the renewed attention, the Kajang Municipal Council (MPKj) confirmed that the structure had indeed been built without approval from local authorities and issued notices under existing legal provisions.
Investigations found that no planning permission or construction applications had been submitted through the council&rsquo;s approval system despite the development occupying multiple land lots, including part of a government river reserve.
Dusun Tua assemblyman Datuk Johan Abd Aziz explained that the issue had already been raised during Hulu Langat District Action Council meetings since last year. According to him, multiple enforcement operations had already taken place, but the main obstacle lies with landowners who allegedly permitted foreigners to occupy the land and construct buildings while also facilitating access to water and electricity.
He stressed that enforcement should not focus solely on the residents but also on those who enabled the settlement to exist in the first place. Based on information shared by authorities, around 400 Rohingya individuals are believed to have established a settlement in the area.
Previous Enforcement Operations Already Conducted
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/76f71565bb7f97ad46f484d091c25ba57c0681c16c7213ae8262101a25db7c90" />
Authorities also revealed that the premises had previously been targeted during an integrated enforcement operation in February last year.
During that raid, dozens of foreign nationals, including men, women and children, were detained for immigration-related offences. A local individual linked to the property owner was also reportedly issued documentation by immigration authorities during the operation.
Police have since indicated that the site is currently believed to house both the property owner&rsquo;s family and local tenants, although investigations into the overall legality of the structure and land use remain ongoing.
Growing Calls To Remove Rohingya From Malaysia
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/8725d9c32e5f46b3cd60f54a06f9736c10cdd0098910be6a490d0629c115b756" />
The Sungai Tekali controversy has unfolded against a backdrop of increasing frustration among sections of the Malaysian public.
Across social media, petitions and campaigns calling for the removal of Rohingya refugees from Malaysia have gained traction, with critics citing concerns over illegal settlements, undocumented migration, public safety and pressure on local resources.
At the same time, humanitarian organisations have warned that online discussions have increasingly crossed into misinformation, harassment and hate speech directed at the refugee community.
Several civil society groups, including refugee advocates, have raised concerns over reports of threats, doxing and intimidation targeting Rohingya leaders and volunteers. They argue that while legitimate discussions about immigration and law enforcement should continue, entire communities should not be dehumanised or blamed collectively for the actions of individuals.
Rohingya Community Appeals For Compassion
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/636e3d923ee6b83a6bdf5abc16c3f01a49c4ee8a95a23b34059b34b55f8b1b5d" />
Amid the growing backlash, a Rohingya community group recently published an emotional open letter addressed to Malaysians and the government, appealing to be seen as fellow human beings rather than as burdens.
In the letter, they expressed gratitude for the refuge Malaysia has provided while acknowledging that many locals have genuine concerns about their presence. They also urged members of their own community to remain respectful and appreciative of the country that has sheltered them.
The group emphasised that many Rohingya did not leave Myanmar in search of better opportunities but because they believed remaining there would threaten their survival. They appealed for understanding, stating that they simply wish to live in safety and dignity while hoping for a more secure future.
<iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fadrian.pereira.3304%2Fposts%2Fpfbid0eFJYFr2166f7jkoehQ481mpast6SFhmvFNayaC8V7yk5h6WT9tinJsPykG4kkL7Nl&amp;show_text=true&amp;width=500" width="500" height="792" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
A Complex Issue With No Easy Answers
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/0b432b74c3ab75bbd063050214edd5fa8941210e7a73c45b883540694f3764d7" />
The debate surrounding the Rohingya community in Malaysia continues to expose the difficult balance between humanitarian responsibility, immigration enforcement and public concerns.
While the illegal settlement in Sungai Tekali has prompted renewed scrutiny over land use and regulatory enforcement, authorities have indicated that accountability should extend beyond occupants to those who enabled such developments. At the same time, discussions surrounding refugees remain highly sensitive, with many Malaysians calling for stronger action while others urge compassion and fact-based dialogue.
As investigations into the Sungai Tekali settlement continue, the incident has become another focal point in the broader national conversation about refugees, governance and the responsibilities shared by both authorities and society.

Authorities say landowners who allegedly allowed the illegal structures to be built should also be held accountable.

AKB48 Is Coming To Kuala Lumpur This July For Japan Expo Malaysia 2026!

For many Malaysians, Inside Scoop has become synonymous with creative collaborations that celebrate local flavours. From partnering with beloved homegrown brands to reimagining nostalgic favourites as ice cream, the local dessert chain has built a reputation for putting a unique twist on familiar tastes.
This Father&rsquo;s Day, the brand is doing it once again&mdash;this time by joining forces with Oriental Kopi to bring one of Malaysia&rsquo;s most iconic beverages into dessert form.
A Nostalgic Collaboration Inspired by Kopitiam Culture
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/a08f351a03e6c36132566551b9203c06213be7820f1fb643d8a2a5cd8c798d30" />
In its latest limited-edition collaboration, Inside Scoop has teamed up with Oriental Kopi to transform the caf&eacute;&rsquo;s signature Classic White Coffee into a collection of desserts inspired by traditional kopitiam experiences.
Drawing on the comforting ritual of enjoying a cup of coffee with family, the collaboration introduces three exclusive creations: White Coffee Ice Cream, Kopi Tiramisu and Kopitiam Coffee Cake.
The collection pays tribute to the familiar flavours many Malaysians grew up with, blending nostalgia with modern dessert-making while celebrating the timeless appeal of a simple cup of kopi.
White Coffee, Reimagined
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://r2.myc.my/3eaf614f203dcab5c2cf66ed70e3ba479da65b89b59bff928aa17210e671ff51" />
Leading the collection is the White Coffee Ice Cream, which captures the rich and creamy notes of Oriental Kopi&rsquo;s signature brew in frozen form.
For coffee lovers who appreciate the distinctive taste of Malaysian-style white coffee, the dessert offers a straightforward yet indulgent way to enjoy the familiar flavour in an entirely new format.
Meanwhile, the Kopi Tiramisu elevates the experience even further by layering coffee-infused elements into a chilled dessert that feels both comforting and luxurious.
To complete the nostalgic presentation, the tiramisu is served in a specially designed Inside Scoop kopitiam cup inspired by the iconic ceramic cups commonly found in traditional coffee shops, recreating the atmosphere of a classic morning at a neighbourhood kopitiam.
A Cake Made for Family Gatherings
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/438de9c98a4a1dcc48e906e7d4ba3f379ef04121fb93ca5b556e5a413566f266" />
For those planning to celebrate Father&rsquo;s Day at home, the Kopitiam Coffee Cake serves as the centrepiece of the collection.
Designed with soft ombre layers infused with white coffee flavours, the cake is intended to be shared among family members, bringing everyone together over dessert much like a cup of kopi brings people together around the table.
The combination of delicate sponge and aromatic coffee flavours creates a dessert that feels both familiar and celebratory, making it an ideal addition to any Father&rsquo;s Day gathering.
More Than Just Dessert
More than simply introducing new flavours, the collaboration is designed to recreate the nostalgic experience of gathering with loved ones over a cup of kopi. By transforming familiar kopitiam staples into ice cream and cake, Inside Scoop and Oriental Kopi offer a modern twist on a timeless Malaysian tradition, while the Kopi Tiramisu&rsquo;s classic ceramic-inspired cup adds an extra touch of heritage and charm.
Available for a Limited Time
The special Father&rsquo;s Day collection is now available for a <a href="https://insidescoop.com.my/products/kopitiam-coffee-cake">limited time</a> at Inside Scoop outlets nationwide.
Whether you are treating your dad to his favourite white coffee in a different form or simply looking for an excuse to indulge in something uniquely Malaysian, the collaboration offers a fresh take on familiar flavours while celebrating the traditions that bring families together.
For fans of both brands, it is also another example of how local favourites can be reinvented without losing the nostalgic essence that made them so beloved in the first place.

Malaysia&rsquo;s political landscape was dealt a significant surprise this week after PAS officially announced that it has ended its political cooperation with Bersatu, signalling a major shift within the opposition bloc ahead of future elections.
The decision was confirmed by PAS president Abdul Hadi Awang following a special meeting of the party&rsquo;s Central Working Committee held at the PAS headquarters in Kuala Lumpur.
According to Hadi, the decision was made after the party reviewed reports, studies and assessments regarding the current state of its relationship with Bersatu. PAS also endorsed a decision reached by its Syura Council on 2 June, which examined the matter from policy, legal and public-interest perspectives based on the principle of Muslim unity, or penyatuan ummah.
In a statement, Hadi said PAS had resolved to terminate its political cooperation with Bersatu with immediate effect while exploring new political arrangements and electoral cooperation ahead of upcoming state elections and the 16th General Election (GE16).
Growing Tensions Behind the Split
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/22970a4ab66e63dc774bc7ce6f4b6ca32e5e8997412009d46282de9736371e42" />
The announcement did not come entirely out of the blue, as tensions between PAS and Bersatu have been simmering for months.
Relations between the two parties reportedly deteriorated following several disagreements involving state leadership appointments and the direction of Perikatan Nasional (PN). One of the most notable flashpoints was the political crisis in Perlis, which saw the removal of PAS Menteri Besar Mohd Shukri Ramli and the appointment of a Bersatu representative as his replacement.
PAS leaders openly criticised Bersatu&rsquo;s handling of the matter, viewing it as evidence of increasing friction between the coalition partners.
The party had also expressed dissatisfaction over what it claimed was interference in political appointments involving PAS-led states such as Kedah and Kelantan, as well as opposition from Bersatu towards admitting new Malay-Muslim parties into PN.
In May, Hadi publicly acknowledged that PAS was reassessing its relationship with Bersatu and even suggested that the party could contest the next general election without its long-time ally.
Those comments were later followed by a letter from Bersatu president Muhyiddin Yassin, who defended his party&rsquo;s actions and sought to address the concerns raised by PAS.
Syura Council Raises Concerns Over Bersatu's Internal Issues
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/5858393cd8fdf5e2592cb5f9a63cb470c1aa81e02a80547a0407faa110d443e7" />
The move was further influenced by concerns raised by PAS&rsquo;s Syura Council, which reportedly took serious note of ongoing internal issues and conflicts within Bersatu.
According to PAS Syura Council secretary Nik Muhammad Zawawi Salleh, the council believed these internal problems were beginning to affect the wider stability and effectiveness of Perikatan Nasional.
Prior to the special meeting, PAS information chief Ahmad Fadhli Shaari also hinted that relations between the parties had become strained, suggesting that damaged trust would not be easy to repair.
While acknowledging Muhyiddin&rsquo;s efforts to maintain good relations, Fadhli argued that political partnerships should be judged not only by statements and promises, but also by actions.
PAS Looking Towards a New Political Alignment
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/b737115d1e9584300389bccf3fa577e03c372763586d05d705824c0b23751667" />
Although PAS has ended its formal political cooperation with Bersatu, the party appears to be keeping its future options open.
Hadi said PAS would now explore a new framework of political understanding and electoral cooperation aimed at strengthening Muslim unity ahead of future elections. He also revealed that the party intends to welcome academics, professionals, political leaders and community activists who are interested in joining PAS and contributing to its future direction.
The announcement has sparked speculation about who PAS could potentially align itself with moving forward.
In recent weeks, rumours have intensified over the possibility of renewed cooperation between PAS and UMNO through a revival of the former Muafakat Nasional alliance. The speculation gained traction after Hadi confirmed that leaders from both parties had recently met.
However, Ahmad Zahid Hamidi later clarified that the meeting did not involve discussions about reviving the defunct alliance.
Despite the denial, political observers are likely to continue monitoring any signs of future collaboration between the two parties as the next election cycle approaches.
What Happens to Perikatan Nasional?
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/030e7e0c5bc5d5250812b117636372a6ad0e54899f881eea765c05f98d7ecd2b" />
One of the biggest questions following PAS&rsquo;s announcement is what it means for Perikatan Nasional itself.
Interestingly, PAS leaders have stressed that the decision to cut ties with Bersatu does not currently affect the party&rsquo;s position within the opposition coalition.
When questioned by reporters after the special meeting, Ahmad Fadhli declined to elaborate on PAS&rsquo;s future within PN, saying only that the current situation remains unchanged.
&ldquo;As of tonight, that is the situation,&rdquo; he said when asked whether PAS was still part of the coalition.
Similarly, Perlis PN chairman Shahidan Kassim pointed out that Hadi&rsquo;s official statement made no mention of withdrawing from Perikatan Nasional.
&ldquo;The president&rsquo;s statement did not touch on PN, so the position remains as before,&rdquo; Shahidan said.
The special meeting itself reportedly focused on the relationship between PAS and Bersatu and did not discuss the party&rsquo;s membership in PN.
As a result, PAS technically remains a component party of Perikatan Nasional despite formally ending its political cooperation with Bersatu.
Uncertainty Ahead of GE16
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/084ba2b1b9eadf3b0670f8d4e401690fdd334e7e797bc58c3874f2031f734e3b" />
The development leaves several unanswered questions about the future of the opposition bloc.
Perikatan Nasional was jointly established by PAS and Bersatu in 2020 and has since become one of Malaysia&rsquo;s most significant political coalitions. However, the latest split highlights growing divisions between its two largest founding members.
For now, PAS leaders insist that their position within PN remains unchanged, while Bersatu has yet to fully respond to the implications of the decision.
Whether this marks the beginning of a broader realignment within Malaysia&rsquo;s opposition landscape or merely a restructuring of political cooperation remains to be seen.
What is clear, however, is that with state elections and GE16 on the horizon, PAS has signalled that it is prepared to chart a new course &mdash; one that it says is centred on unity, political renewal, and a fresh electoral strategy for the years ahead.

PAS Ends Political Cooperation With Bersatu, But Remains in Perikatan Nasional For Now

What began as a challenging mountain expedition ended in a two-week survival ordeal for Malaysian hiker Jaslinda Saludin, who was rescued after going missing during the Trans Spencer Chapman trek at Gunung Batu Putih in Perak.
The 49-year-old was part of a group of 14 hikers and two mountain guides who began their ascent on 23 May at around 2am. The trek, which spans part of the rugged Titiwangsa mountain range, is known for its steep gradients, dense forest cover, and unpredictable terrain.
However, the expedition took a dramatic turn when Jaslinda and another climber reportedly experienced health issues during the ascent. While the other hiker stopped, she is believed to have continued onward alone and was last seen on 24 May.
That decision marked the beginning of an intense SAR operation that would span nearly two weeks across dense jungle, rivers, and mountainous terrain.
Missing in One of Malaysia&rsquo;s Toughest Jungle Terrains
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/4a1e90ac7475d2f6342eac257d1844c3a52f64ab59179f3c02160ac30b2d84a8" />
Authorities were alerted soon after she failed to return with the group, triggering a large-scale search effort involving the Fire and Rescue Department, police, forestry mountain guides, NGOs, and Orang Asli villagers.
Perak Forestry Mountain Guide coordinator Muzafar Mohamad described the search environment as extremely demanding, even for experienced personnel.
&ldquo;The terrain is filled with valleys, waterfalls and difficult ground. Even for experienced mountain guides, reaching certain sections is not easy,&rdquo; he said.
Search teams repeatedly combed the same zones, including areas where Jaslinda would later be found. However, dense vegetation, shifting river paths, and limited visibility made the operation challenging.
Despite extensive efforts, it was ultimately members of the Orang Asli community who first spotted her near a river at Kampung Lubuk Gaharu, Pos Musoh, on 6 June.
&ldquo;I Didn&rsquo;t Eat for Two Weeks&rdquo;
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/0c032b475a985453e5234b7b1e41eab95dfb4da29a003acc4dadab71f37eba9d" />
In the aftermath of her rescue, Jaslinda described the ordeal in stark and emotional detail, saying she had gone without food for the entire duration of her disappearance.
&ldquo;I had no food. I didn&rsquo;t eat for two weeks. I only ate today,&rdquo; she said in a video circulating online shortly after being found.
Her survival, she explained, depended entirely on whatever she could find in the forest. This included river water, dew collected from leaves, and water sourced from pitcher plants.
&ldquo;I drank black water, brown water, water from pitcher plants&hellip; I felt like I was hanging between life and death,&rdquo; she said.
She also described moments of disorientation where she would walk in circles while trying to retrace her steps and reconnect with her group.
&ldquo;I felt like I was dying going up and down, up and down. The ground was too soft,&rdquo; she added.
At one point, she also recalled encountering a cave-like shelter where she briefly took refuge as exhaustion set in.
Survival on the Edge: Dehydration and Exhaustion
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/8e65a221430d1d57933a56e0f76d0a2271738f2be4ac5deb6ec670dbc49b84e1" />
Officials later confirmed that Jaslinda endured extremely limited access to clean water, particularly during the first few days of her disappearance.
Perak Fire and Rescue Department assistant director of operations Sabarodzi Nor Ahmad said she survived by relying on natural water sources such as rivers and dew, and occasionally consumed wild forest produce.
There were also periods of approximately three days where she had no proper access to water, significantly increasing the risk of dehydration in Malaysia&rsquo;s humid tropical conditions.
Rescuers noted that she had sustained multiple injuries during her ordeal, including insect bites, abrasions, and wounds to her head. She is also believed to have fallen several times, including drops of up to five metres while navigating uneven terrain and river crossings.
Despite this, her ability to continue moving through the jungle is being credited to both determination and survival instinct.
Found by Orang Asli Villagers
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/c89acba0dac1e0a0ad99f0c497e443c4c1e1d5c40012c4a764a7c61e0a9bf1c8" />
Her eventual discovery came not from organised search teams, but from Orang Asli villagers who were heading towards a river in the Lubuk Gaharu area.
One of the villagers, Nazri Bah Eng, said she appeared weak, disoriented, and close to collapse when they found her.
&ldquo;She was crying and extremely exhausted. We immediately brought her back to the village chief&rsquo;s house and gave her food and drinks,&rdquo; he said.
She was later transported to Tapah Hospital via Emergency Medical Rescue Services at around 9.20pm the same day.
A &ldquo;Miracle&rdquo; That Ended a Nationwide Search
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Alhamdulillah syukur. Terima kasih sukarelawan dan pasukan penyelamat, serta warga Orang Asli Lubuk Gaharu kerana melindungi saudari Jaslinda. <a href="https://t.co/MYzMFt6X8i">https://t.co/MYzMFt6X8i</a>
&mdash; Anwar Ibrahim (@anwaribrahim) <a href="https://x.com/anwaribrahim/status/2063216804055650490?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 6, 2026</a></blockquote>

<script async="" src="https://platform.x.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

The discovery of Jaslinda was widely described as a miracle by those involved in the operation, particularly given that she was found within areas already searched multiple times.
Friends and fellow hikers expressed relief, with one close acquaintance, Hishammuddin Ahmad, saying the news felt like a long-awaited prayer answered.
&ldquo;When we heard she had been found safe, it felt like our prayers had been answered. It is truly a miracle,&rdquo; he said.
Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim also expressed gratitude to rescue teams, volunteers, and the Orang Asli community for their role in the successful operation.
Hospital Recovery and Medical Observations
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/5f48cb3d6a7463fe905df0fb8b4f0709dc877a4bc7a5f25b04eaf66253125566" />
Medical staff at Tapah Hospital confirmed that Jaslinda had lost close to 10 kilograms during her ordeal but was otherwise stable upon admission.
Hospital director Dr Wan Immi Salim said she was able to speak, eat, and communicate normally, and showed no signs of brain or internal injuries despite multiple reported falls.
&ldquo;She is able to eat, speak and communicate normally,&rdquo; she said, adding that recovery has been progressing well and discharge is expected soon.
Jaslinda is currently being treated for external wounds, abrasions, and a leg injury requiring a partial cast. Doctors are also monitoring her carefully due to the risks associated with prolonged starvation and refeeding syndrome, a condition that can occur when food is reintroduced too quickly after extended fasting.
Emotional Recovery and Family Relief
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/30d2f372e3f43a2aed870dd55414c3426ec247af5dcbd2b3b38f846320ec1f30" />
Beyond her physical recovery, family members say Jaslinda is also regaining emotional strength.
Her sister shared that she has become more cheerful, has begun eating in small portions, and is gradually returning to normal sleep patterns.
&ldquo;She wants to eat everything, but her condition still does not fully permit it,&rdquo; she said.
Her husband, Haszman Othman, also expressed deep relief and confidence in her resilience throughout the ordeal.
&ldquo;She is strong,&rdquo; he said simply.
A Story That Gripped the Nation
Jaslinda&rsquo;s survival has since captured national attention, not only for its dramatic circumstances but also for the sheer improbability of her endurance.
From surviving entirely on natural water sources to navigating one of Malaysia&rsquo;s most demanding jungle terrains alone for 14 days, her story has been widely described as both extraordinary and deeply humbling.
Authorities have since closed access to parts of the Gunung Batu Putih hiking route pending further safety reviews, underscoring the risks of the terrain even for experienced hikers.
For many, however, her survival remains the defining takeaway &mdash; a rare case where determination, instinct, and resilience appear to have defied the odds entirely.

She is now recovering after surviving 14 days in the jungle on natural water sources and forest produce.
