  5. You know, perfection might not exist in life but the laksa at Bite of China in Dun Laoghaire sure does come pretty darn close.

  6. Malaysian Chinese food is one of my faves and I'm so glad that OTR did this deep dive into it

    it's not just the one thing either.. there's probably way more I can say but it's a good start

  7. Digging the scene with the #gasoline : Former rally driver and #motoring journalist "Uncle" YS Khong from #Malaysia advises young #drivers how to save #petrol ( even though Malaysia has its own oil reserves and refineries, its still affected by #war in the #MiddleEast )

    You can also hear #Malaysian English or #Manglish in this video 😁

    The petrol stations in suburban Malaysia are larger and bigger than UK, and even have small restaurant areas with proper tables (my cousin said the food at them is very good, it is better than you would get here in Blighty)

  10. The Guardian | Experience: I climbed the tallest tropical tree in the world by Jamiluddin Jami

    It was a slow ascent: I needed to check for wasps, snakes and scorpions

    I was born in Tawau, a Malaysian city on the island of Borneo, and grew up around logging camps – my dad worked in the industry. In the early 90s, a lot of the forest here started being cleared for commercial use. At the time, I just thought that was the way things were.

    That changed when I began working in conservation as a teenager at the South East Asia Rainforest Research Partnership in the nearby Danum Valley. My job was to plant seedlings in places where the forest had been cut down. I began to learn about the importance of keeping the forest safe.

  13. There's a growing discussion about reverting Peninsular Malaysia's time zone to GMT+7, which reflects the sun's natural position. The current GMT+8, adopted to follow Sabah and Sarawak, creates an unnatural body clock (circadian rhythm) conflict with very late sunrises. As someone from Sabah, I feel the difference acutely—our time feels natural, but the Peninsular's time is jarring.

  14. Malaysia ranks third globally for the least amount of steps taken daily, according to a Stanford study. While the headline is dramatic, it sparks a necessary conversation: is this genuine laziness, or a consequence of urban planning that makes walking unsafe and inconvenient in most Malaysian cities?

  15. @kalvin: They labelled us "other Bumiputera." Sad. For them, we're just "other" kind of Malaysians.

    @kalvin: Just to be clear — anyone instigating arguments or spreading hate is not among my circle.

    ↑ Why did I talk like this? Let me tell you the context.

    @Gyuriim: Tapi, Melanau orang ulu dan banyak lagi kaum minoriti selain KDMR. Nak cakap pasal sensitiviti, macam mana sekalipun, pasti ada kaum minoriti yang sensitif. Tidak perlu pergi jauh, tengok sahaja di Sarawak. Yang Iban fikirkan Sarawak ini adalah milik Iban sahaja. Padahal, masih ada Bidayuh, Orang Ulu, Melanau, semua.

    ↑ This is an example of harmful and divisive "minority and/or majority" narratives and labels. And also, the commenter holds the opinion that, based on limited data by the Iban people themselves, they claimed that the whole Iban population thinks Sarawak belongs to them. Ignoring diverse political opinions and alignment diversities among human beings.

    @ezan: Tak semua suku di Sabah dan Sarawak adalah Dayak... Paham tak?

    @nazr: Boleh sahaja dikategorikan sebagai Dayak terus, macam Melayu buat, tapi tak nak 😁

    ↑ Overgeneralizations of all people from Sabah and Sarawak as simply Dayak are inappropriate and insulting. KDMR++ people do choose "Momogun" as their core identity. The second comment is also harmful, showing a lack of empathy and respect because of the smile emoji.

    @Zurfiqar Zurkefili: Terlalu banyak etnik... dan jika disatukan atas satu nama, etnik lain tidak mahu mengiktiraf serta populasi setiap etnik tidak terlalu besar. Inilah caranya... Jangan cakap begitu... Harmoni ialah lambang negara.

    ↑ Too many ethnicities aren't a relevant excuse for justifying representing Malaysia as only three: "Malay", Chinese, Indian. We must stop ethnic discrimination and subtle cleansing (which choosing only three ethnicities suggests). We're Malaysians.

    @kruhuv: Other bumi isn't exclusive to Sabahan and Sarawakian only; there are others like Indigenous people and many other ethnic groups.

    ↑ This is true. Yes, I did mean "they labelled us other Bumiputera," which means, I think, that for them we are just "other" kinds of Malaysians. Based on my past experience at school as a teenage student in that secondary school, a teacher in front of the students said, "This is an Indian; all the others are Malay students," and when they pointed at me: "Kalvin, what is your 'brand'?" showing a lack of understanding and a subtle insult towards their "other" kinds of ethnicities.

    @JEMTOD93: Kan, dah lah ambil dari kita perkataan bumi yang kita guna dulu sebagai others, kenapa tidak sahaja guna Melayu? Dalam perlembagaan tidak disebutkan tentang kesultanan Bumiputra tetapi kesultanan Melayu. Marah kata menghakis hak Melayu, tetapi satu-satu benda yang menjadikan mereka sebagai identiti adalah untuk dikenali sebagai Melayu. Tetapi mereka merujuk diri mereka sebagai Bumiputra🥲.

    ↑ Suggested Malay supremacy propaganda. Monarch worship, which is unhealthy for democracy. Ethnic supremacy propaganda and discrimination, which I see as global concerning issues that are often discussed and about which I am concerned.

    @Pickley_Star: This country doesn't care for its natives the same way other countries do. They only prioritize Malay people.

    (Me to Pickley) @kalvin: Imagine using "Malay supremacy" propaganda for elites to keep hoarding their wealth.

    ↑ In a place that faces injustices, oral sources and narratives do count as the primary sources of evidence and stories when the law and documentation fail to protect the vulnerable, which suggests that only specific people receive protection and certain benefits.

    Labels like 'other Bumiputera' and ignoring KDMR++ identity as 'Dayak' are divisive. This subtle ethnic cleansing maintains elite wealth. Our lived experience is primary evidence against this injustice.

    Do you or your family make any special dishes for the holidays?

    I am half-Filipino. My mother is from the Philippines and my father, a Malaysian, like me.

    Growing up, I was neither close to my mother’s or father’s side. However, between these two, I am somewhat culturally inclined towards my mother’s side through some of her simple heartwarming dishes that she cooked growing up as well as some of the Filipino songs she would play or the Tagalog words she would incorporate in her daily conversations.

    Two of the simple dish my mother would prepare would be pasta or bolognese spaghetti and Buko salad.

    1. Spaghetti

    Originally, spaghetti is a form of pasta and a staple food of traditional Italian cuisine.

    However, it also serves as one of the staple Filipino dishes.

    My mother would usually make a batch of bolognese spaghetti occasionally and on New Year’s Eve, as that is what my maternal grandmother used to do while she was growing up.

    It is rather simple and easy as well and she would go crazy with the cheddar cheese topping. Over the years, as she started to dwell into vegetarianism and eventually become one for a lifetime, she created her own variation of a vegetarian version.

    2. Buko Salad

    Adapted from https://www.kawalingpinoy.com/buko-salad/

    “Buko” salad is a form of Filipino fruit salad.

    “Buko” refers to a young coconut fruit and “Buko” salad consists of the young coconut itself.

    It is a simple dish which has many variations.

    My mother would usually mix with nata de coco of various colours, avoiding the colourless ones, corn, a huge can of mix fruits and other canned fruits before finally mixing it with evaporated milk, cheddar cheese and “buko”.

    She will the separate it into containers and freeze it and have it on New Year’s Eve.

    Growing up, my family would be seated at the dining table with other dishes prepared on New Year’s Eve for us to dine in together at midnight and every year, these two dishes remains a staple.

  22. There's a #Malaysian #horror #game that has just released a week ago called #PaperHorrorStories: #ThirdEyeOpen. I was already interested to check it out knowing it's Malaysian and HORROR at that, but was immediately sold when I saw the very #Yamishibai like graphics.

    Game dev isn't much of a thing here (as far as I'm aware), yet, but now we have one that is getting some eyes on it I hope we'll get to see this space grow a lot more in the coming years seeing how it's been growing rapidly in our neighbouring countries in recent years. Needless to say, super cool to see environments and stories akin to my childhood.

    Bonus point: the game supports multiple languages, but as for English, there's the option to pick between
    proper/formal English (UK) and Broken English, which is essentially the commonly spoken English dialect local to #Malaysia/#Singapore.
