Developed on the race track to achieve supreme agility, precision, and poise, The 8 combines powerful engine with BMW xDrive intelligent all-wheel drive system and BMW EfficientLightweight design measures – set to introduce new benchmarks in the luxury coupe segment.

“At the BMW Group, we’ve always had our sights on the future, and the First Generation BMW 8 Series is testimony to that. First introduced in 1989, the luxurious sports coupe was bold and ahead of its time in terms of performance, innovation and luxury. It was the first BMW vehicle to introduce electronic drive-by-wire throttle, Dynamic Stability Control and Integral Active Steering with the use of multi-link rear axle technology. Three decades on, we have taken the future-looking legacy of the BMW 8 Series and we are bringing this luxurious sports coupe into the modern era to set standards for the future.” said Mr. Harald Hoelzl, Managing Director of BMW Group Malaysia.

The 8 is introduced in the BMW M850i xDrive Coupe variant, boasting outstanding performance, emotion-stirring design, state-of-the-art luxury, exceptionally advanced equipment features when it comes to display and control technology, driver assistance and connectivity.

The exterior design of The 8 demonstrates a modern form of sporting appeal with a new styling language focusing on clarity, modernity and emotional engagement. The car’s low-slung design, an elongated silhouette with a slim window graphic and a roofline flowing elegantly into the rear with distinctive ‘double-bubble’ contouring, a long wheelbase and wide track widths are the defining visual elements of The 8’s proportions.

The latest V8 engine with incredible power delivery and acoustics also debuts in the BMW M850i xDrive Coupe, serving prodigious power delivery and an equally impressive soundtrack, which is further enhanced by the flap-controlled sports exhaust system.

A new design language for sporting appeal.

Everything about The 8’s appearance convey pure dynamism and turns the luxury coupe into a sports car brimming with passion and character. Onlookers will be greeted by the trademark hexagonal kidney grille with its elements framed by a single-piece surround. The 8 comes standard with the BMW Laserlight – the slimmest headlights of any BMW model to date.

The side view is dominated by a dramatic interplay of surfaces using sleek character lines to trace the flow of the air exiting the Air Breathers. Whilst the surfaces curve inwards of the far side of the front wheels, they flare outwards again above the rear wheels. This combines with the strikingly tapered glasshouse to create a muscular shoulder line. At the rear, the interplay of horizontal and diagonal lines emphasises the car’s width and low centre of gravity. The LED taillights add to this effect by extending deep into the flanks. Twin exhaust tailpipes with a trapezoidal contour are positioned on either side of the rear apron’s lower section.

The BMW M performance model is instantly recognisable by its exclusive exterior appointments in Cerium Grey, an M rear spoiler and illuminated door sills bearing the model name. It comes standard with an additional front spoiler to minimise the lift that occurs at the front axle at high speeds.

The 8 comes with exceptionally powerful 19” M Sport brakes along with blue painted M callipers. The standard specification for the BMW M850i xDrive coupe also includes 20” M light-alloy wheels in y-spoke style 728 M with mixed tyres. Specifically with the choice of the Sunset Orange exterior colour offering, the option for wheels in the Style 728 M in Jet Black are available.

BMW’s trademark Hofmeister kink has also been updated to a tightly-angled version. Carried over from the concept car, The 8 features the ‘double-bubble’ which mimics the rush of air rearwards along the roof at high speeds. To reduce the aerodynamic drag of The 8’s streamlined body, it has an almost fully sealed underbody, active air flap control with adjustable kidney grille slats and Air Curtains including Air Breathers.

The modern and minimalistic exterior design language is continued inside the new BMW 8 Series Coupe, creating a relaxingly luxurious ambience. All lines point lengthways, automatically directing the gaze to the front and emphasising the focus on sporty driving. All control elements are clearly arranged. A concise surface design lets the high-quality materials really stand out. The use of trim finishers, for instance, is restricted to the sports car-style transition between the centre console and the instrument panel.

In addition to multifunction seats and the M leather steering wheel, the M Sport package include an anthracite BMW Individual headliner, M pedals, M driver’s footrest and special floor mats to inject the cabin with distinctly sporty flair.

The newly developed sports seats are upholstered as standard in Merino leather. The fulled leather trim for the door shoulders and instrument panel is also standard. Thanks to the low seating position of both rear seats, it has been possible to design the head restraints as an integral part of the backrests. The rear backrest can be split 50:50 as standard and folded down to increase the capacity of the 420-litre luggage compartment.

For the first time ever, active seat ventilation is also made available where the cooled air is sucked in from the interior then guided along the body to the seats’ built-in fans for particularly effective temperature control of the seat cushions and backrests.

Formidable power generates supreme dynamic performance.

KOTEX #SHECAN Empowers 4 Malaysia Women To Pursue Their Passions

4 amazing young women were selected from over 240 submissions, following a rigorous judging process.

KOTEX #SHECAN FUN RECIPIENT_PIC 1

Women across the world are breaking down barriers every day and sometimes, all it takes is a little financial assistance to give these women the nudge they need to embark on their journey to become the best they can be.

That is exactly what the first 4 recipients of the Kotex® #SHECAN FUND needed to pursue their passion and make a difference in the lives of others. They are now one step closer to achieving their goals after their entries were selected from more than 240 submissions from across the country.

“While women in Malaysia are generally not as disadvantaged as their counterparts in other parts of the world, there are still many who have been unable to take the next step towards achieving their dreams. The Kotex #SHECAN FUND was set up to do just that, to support and motivate these women, to ensure they have the same opportunities,” said Frenissa Lagman, Marketing Manager for Kimberly-Clark.

“Kotex® is proud to partner these four amazing Malaysian women who have shown a strong, unyielding sense of courage, determination, passion and grit that embodies the spirit of the Kotex #SHECAN movement that Period or Not, She Can.”

Apart from eliminating period worries, the Kotex® #SHECAN movement has been driving societal change globally to help young women challenge outdated perceptions and misconceptions around period myths and worries by defying gender stereotypes to emerge as champions and to stand as equals in pursuing their ambitions, and to inspire other young women that they, too, can achieve whatever they set their hearts on.

In Malaysia, Kotex® kicked off the #SHECAN FUND in October last year with an annual commitment of RM100,000 to inspire more young women and girls to make strides in areas where women are currently underrepresented, from arts to education, to entrepreneurship and beyond.

The first four recipients the Kotex® #SHECAN FUND who will be awarded between RM7,000 and RM25,000, hail from varied backgrounds with equally varied pursuits. Their submissions detailed their ambition to engage the community and inspire other young women to overcome society’s expectations of them.

They are:

  1. artist, Nawwar Shukriah Ali
  2. aspiring dancer, Aina Amirah
  3. leprosy researcher, Atiqah Abd Rahim;
  4. social volunteer, Nur Adzratull Iffah.

Nawwar Shurkriah Ali, 34, has always turned to her art which encompasses drawings, installations and photography as a form of expression. It has helped her articulate her childhood struggles to show that there is hope and that the good will always prevail. She appreciates the significance of being a female artist and is grateful to Kotex® for funding her first solo art exhibition which will provide a visual insight to mental health issues.

“A person living with mental health problems often has difficulty to hope and find something meaningful to focus on, but I believe art is a positive tool to try to bridge that gap,” she explained.

For 23-year-old Aina Amirah, her faith makes her passion for contemporary dance that much stronger. As a recipient of the fund, this hijab-wearing young woman is now on her way to honing her skills to become a professional contemporary dancer.

“We should not be discriminated against based on our faith or forms of dressing. I am most happy when I’m dancing and I want to share the beauty of contemporary dance and inspire young people who may not have the confidence or the opportunities to follow their dreams and show them that the world truly is their stage.”

According to Atiqah Abd Rahim, 25, her eyes were opened to the struggles and stigma associated with Hansen’s disease, that continue to devastate those who are and have been afflicted with the disease. Following a research piece on Hansen’s disease (more commonly known as leprosy) in Sarawak, specifically in a resettlement village of Kampung Sinar Baru at Kota Padawan, Atiqah realized that age-old prejudices have led to people afflicted with the disease facing significant hardship even though Hansen’s disease is treatable.

“Thanks to Kotex®, I am able to use the funds to publish a book on my findings to highlight the struggles of former sufferers to show there is life after being cured and they too can have joy in their hearts,” she said.

Armed with a burning desire to help others in need, Nur Adzratull Iffah is willing to be put out of her way to do so.

“If you have enough compassion to see where and when help is needed, you are already way ahead of many people,” said the 20-year-old social volunteer.

She will use the funds from Kotex® to become a teaching assistant at a special needs school in Jakarta via an AIESEC Malaysia volunteer programme. Nur Adzratull is thrilled she will be able to pursue her goal to give back to the community and she hopes to inspire others to do the same.

Lagman added,

“We are confident that women are built for incredible things and these four individuals are just the start. We hope to inspire many more women across Malaysia. The Kotex® #SHECAN FUND is the perfect opportunity for women to share your passion with our panel of judges to bring that passion alive.”

Women who have faced challenges in realising their life-changing ambitions can continue to submit their entries for the Kotex ® #SHECAN FUND.

A&W Launched Its 47th Outlet at Ekocheras Mall

Wow, my favorite restaurant is now at Ekocheras Mall and easily accessible by MRT train..

Photo 1 (2)

A&W Malaysia, which made local history by becoming the first ever fast food restaurant in Malaysia, has officially opened its 47th outlet in the country at EkoCheras Mall. The announcement came following an event which was attended by up-and-coming Malaysian singer-actress, Ms Nabila Razali, as well as CEO of A&W Malaysia, George Ang and Mr David Lee, Director of Supply Chain & Technical, A Great American Brand Sdn. Bhd.

Sporting a fresh new effervescent vibe, the new outlet plans to rejuvenate the A&W brand in Malaysia, targeting it to a young new generation of discerning consumers.

For more than half a century, A&W has etched itself into the hearts of Malaysians with its famed and distinguished RB, floats, burgers, ice cream waffles and its beloved mascot, Rooty the Great Root Bear.

A pioneer in the Malaysian fast food industry, the brand has now conceptualised plans to leverage on its rich heritage and legacy in Malaysia to make a big comeback, reclaiming the hearts and minds of young consumers. These plans also come at a time when the A&W brand celebrates its centennial anniversary worldwide this year.

Along with this brand rejuvenation, A&W Malaysia’s parent company, Inter Mark Resources Sdn. Bhd. has massive expansion plans on the cards, with plans to increase the number of restaurants in the country to 60 by the end of 2019 and 100 by the end of 2021.

This follows the take-up of the entire interest of A&W Malaysia by Inter Mark Resources Sdn. Bhd. from KUB Malaysia Berhad in September last year.

“These are exciting times indeed for the fast food industry, and we believe the time and market conditions are ripe to revive the A&W image in Malaysia to modern consumers who can look forward to a fresh new experience at our stores, in line with our expansion plans,” said George Ang, CEO of A&W Malaysia.

With the new opening at EkoCheras Mall, A&W is all set to chart a new course for the brand in Malaysia and it certainly looks like Malaysians are set to create many more stories and memories at A&W, truly making the brand a taste to remember.

PANTENE Inspires Woman via “Braids of Strength” Campaign

In the third phase of the #WANITABESI campaign, Pantene encourages women to stay STRONG, stay BEAUTIFUL and stay in SPORTS

02

In Malaysia, female participation in sports is also much lower than male participation. Data from the National Sports Council of Malaysia (NSC) revealed that in 2018, Malaysia only had a total of 1,844 female athletes as compared to 2,483 male athletes who participated in sports.

Realizing the need to help women to unleash their strength to stay in sports, Pantene proudly presents Braids of Strength.

Braids of Strength is the third and latest instalment of the #WANITABESI campaign which aims to champion inner strength and confidence in women to achieve their goals. This campaign aims to give voice to women in embracing their passion and inspiring them to stay in sports accompanied by the perfect hair braid, which helps them to feel confident and comfortable while playing sports. This campaign was announced in conjunction with the globally celebrated International Women’s Day.

Keeping an active lifestyle is vital to the success of the next generation of Malaysian women and based on the data from the NSC, Pantene decided to dive further into the issue. Pantene embarked on this campaign to better understand the relationship between women and sports in the country.

Here are the results from the poll:

● 52% of respondents believe that sports make women less feminine. This indicates that personal image is a huge barrier for women staying in sports.
● However, 80% of respondents believe that girls who play sports grow up to be stronger and more confident women.
● Over 86% of respondents felt that women deserve an equal chance to become a professional athlete.
● In fact, 83% of respondents believe that women can be the ones to bring home Malaysia’s first gold medal at the Olympics.

Through the research, Pantene also discovered that women often feel like they could not continue to participate in sports because they feel uncomfortable with how they look after each strenuous activity. Their hair will be messy and sweaty; making them feel very conscious of how others will perceive them. Pantene aims for every woman to be strong and beautiful; and to look good with the perfect hair as they play sports. It is as true about hair as it is in life: strong hair can handle anything.

01

Anggia Pulungan, Haircare Commercial Director of P&G Malaysia said,

“At Pantene, we are rooted in the belief that strong is beautiful. For a woman, her hair is both a personal and a public matter; it is a big part of her confidence. Through Braids of Strength, Pantene wants to encourage more women to embrace the #WANITABESI spirit, pursue any sport of their choice to boost their inner strength and eliminate their worry of self-image. By showcasing the perfect way to braid their hair, women get the confidence boost they need to look good. Using the right shampoo and conditioner will also help to solve the problem of bad odour, frizz and hair fall based on scientific data.”

The team of researchers and scientists at Pantene have developed a uniquely engineered braiding technique to keep hair both strong and beautiful. The unique style for braiding increases hair strength and reduces friction by immobilizing the hair strands which prevents it from rubbing off on the clothes. It also prevents tangling and creates interlacing points to provide blockage from sweats to be further distributed down the tip. Women no longer have to worry about self-image and they can continue to engage in any sporting activity, for as long and as much as they wish as they can now have the perfect hair from using Pantene’s superior range of shampoo and conditioner coupled with the perfect hair braid.

“As a sportswoman, I have had my share in facing harsh negativity and criticisms. Sportsmanship is tougher when you are a woman, and it is an added pressure to prove your worth and that you belong in this industry. I am immensely proud to be the campaign ambassador for Pantene’s Braids of Strength and share my experience in overcoming issues of societal expectation of women in sports. I am excited to help girls and women everywhere to overcome all their personal and professional barriers to Stay Strong, Stay Beautiful and Stay in Sports. It is time to show everyone the strength we are made off!” says Farah Ann Abdul Hadi, campaign ambassador and national artistic gymnast.

National sports shooter, Suryani Taibi who was featured as part of the Braids of Strength campaign video added,

“Embracing our womanhood through sports is at times, challenging but ultimately rewarding. I had my fair share of this experience when I was competing in the 2012 Olympics. At that time, I was 8 months pregnant. I powered through the training and still represented my country. It was a tough choice as I made my way into motherhood while participating in a prestigious sporting event, but I believe, as with women everywhere, you are stronger than you think. It is an honor to be a part of this campaign along with strong, aspiring women of #WANITABESI so we can show both men and women that it is possible for women to achieve great things in sports.”

In conjunction with the Braids of Strength campaign and to encourage women to take up and stay in sports; customers who purchase Pantene products in TESCO, GIANT, AEON and AEON Big will receive a golden ribbon.

The golden ribbon can then be presented to any Celebrity Fitness/Fitness First outlets in Malaysia where customers can redeem a free 14-day pass to the gym. The promotion is valid until 31 March 2019.

Vivo V15Pro Unveils Cutting-Edge Tech to Rev Up the Mobile Experience

Vivo finally unveiled the all-new V15Pro smartphone in Malaysia.

3. L-R Vivo Brand Ambassador Janna Nick, Vivo Malaysia CEO Mike Xu and Vivo Brand Ambassador Dato’ Sri Siti Nurhaliza launch the V15 Series smartphone

The V15Pro is Vivo’s first model after the NEX to incorporate the industry’s first Elevating Front Camera. It packs upgraded AI technology, bringing consumers a stunning full-screen smartphone with an intelligent personal assistant that understands and anticipates their needs.

V15Pro_06

Vivo once again is breaking new ground by elevating the mobile experience with this latest affordable V series addition that packs in many high-end technologies that usually feature in only the most premium phones.

In addition to the Elevating Front Camera, the V15Pro includes cutting-edge technologies like its AI Triple Camera that takes pro-photography on the smartphone to another level, plus In-Display Fingerprint Scanning.

“Innovation is one of our core values. Aside from the industry’s first Elevating Front Camera which gave us the ultimate bezel-less display, we are always looking to bring other game-changing features, such as higher-quality cameras and smarter AI services that transport the mobile experience to a new dimension.” Said Mike Xu, Chief Executive Officer of Vivo Malaysia.

“The V15Pro is a clear example of our commitment to bringing advanced products to consumers from all around the world and from all walks of life.”

Elevating Front Camera Makes Possible Super AMOLED Ultra FullView™ Display

Taking inspiration from the groundbreaking NEX, V15Pro carries the same Elevating Front Camera, but better. V15Pro comes with a staggering 32MP Front Camera to capture even better selfies with unrivalled clarity. Vivo has further upgraded the mechanics of the Elevating Front Camera in V15Pro. Design enhancements also ensure the camera is sturdy enough to withstand daily wear-and-tear.

The innovative Elevating Front Camera which first debuted at MWC 2018 as a concept and was featured in the first NEX has effectively created the ideal full-screen display without compromising on photo quality or camera position. With the elimination of the notch, V15Pro now has a staggering 91.64% screen-to-body ratio, creating an unprecedented immersive viewing experience for gaming and video viewing. The Super AMOLED Ultra FullView™ Display on the V15Pro now has a 19.5:9 aspect ratio, and is 6.39 inches diagonally. Its side and top bezels have been reduced to a razor-thin 1.75mm and 2.2mm respectively.

Capture the Perfect Shot with a Stunning AI Triple Camera

V15Pro comes with AI-embedded solutions that take the mobile photography experience to the next level. With an AI Triple Camera, V15Pro allows consumers to take photos with stunning clarity and a wider perspective.

Users can easily capture professional-grade photos with a snap, thanks to the 48 Million Quad Pixel Sensor , 8MP AI Super Wide-Angle Camera, and 5MP Depth Camera. The “four-in-one pixel” technology in the main rear camera combines four pixels into one large pixel to deliver high-quality 12MP photos even in the dark. The AI Super Wide-Angle Camera can expand up to 120 degrees , capturing more people and fuller landscape shots.

This powerful hardware is complemented with AI to make professional photo-taking a breeze. Borrowing from V11, V15Pro is equipped with AI photography features including AI Face Beauty and AI Portrait Framing. The all-new AI Super Night Mode makes shaky night shots a thing of the past, as consumers can now capture amazing night scenery without a tripod or a DSLR camera.

AI Super Night Mode can instantly take multiple photos at different exposures. It then brilliantly combines them to greatly improve brightness and clarity, meaning night scenes can now be captured with a high level of detail and stability.

With the all-new AI Body Shaping feature, users can now look naturally perfect by adjusting every aspect of the body such as the waist and legs – users will no longer need to use photo-editing applications to look their best.

In-Display Fingerprint Scanning Technology Brings Out the Best in Sleek Design

V15Pro also incorporates Vivo’s popular In-Display Fingerprint Scanning Technology, which is now in its 5th generation with higher fingerprint pixel density and more sophisticated algorithms allowing consumers to unlock their phones in a more secure and intuitive manner.

Without a physical fingerprint pad, the sleek back cover adopts a unique Spectrum Ripple Design in Topaz Blue or Coral Red, that reflect different shades at different angles, complementing the futuristic innovations housed within V15Pro.
AI-Powered Performance for a Smoother and more Intuitive Experience

Vivo’s AI has made another leap forward, with a more powerful Jovi, the personal assistant that understands your needs and desires better than ever.

The brand-new AI-powered Jovi Image Recognizer has access to almost 100 mainstream e-commerce platforms such as Shopee and Zalora, so it can easily search through databases of over half a billion products for you. With a simple scan, you can now directly locate the product you need and enjoy futuristic AI shopping.

Simply use the new Smart Button on the side of V15Pro to release the power of AI. One press activates the Google Assistant, while two calls the Jovi Image Recognizer into action. It’s easy, intuitive, and fast. V15Pro also has its own customised voice commands developed in partnership with Google to answer to your needs. Whether you want to activate AI Face Beauty, clean up phone memory, or search for food pictures in your album, just utter the command and V15Pro will do it for you immediately.
Avid gamers will love the upgraded Game Mode 5.0. It comes with the new Competition Mode that allocates system resources to prioritise game performance, and Dual-Turbo, which reduces frame-drop by 300% and increases smooth gameplay.

V15Pro is powered by the Snapdragon 675AIE Octa-core processor with 6GB RAM + 128 ROM, ensuring ultra-smooth performance.

Firefly Airlines Introduces New Campaign for 2019

Firefly Airlines once again has rolled out a concentrated campaign which will run throughout 2019 to sustain and further attract its business and leisure market.

‘Discovery – See It, Hear It, Sense It, Feel It, Touch It, Taste It’ is the direction that the airline is heading towards this year to complement its ‘Jom Jalan’ campaign as part of its effort to lure more locals to discover and re-discover the unknown places and things of our motherland, not forgetting the tourists to visit Malaysia by facilitating and developing more creative and interesting campaigns, activations and holiday packages.

Having launched the campaign ‘Discovery – See It, Hear It, Sense It, Feel It, Touch It, Taste It’ earlier this week at The Saujana Hotel, Firefly kick started the campaign journey one day earlier to the launch by having a the “Come & Discover Selangor with Us” media familiarisation trip to various places around Selangor. This effort was initiated together with Tourism Selangor and The Saujana Hotel Kuala Lumpur as media members from Penang and Kuala Lumpur visited many hidden places of attractions in the 2-day tour.

“Our country has many hidden places of attractions that are worth discovering and you will be equally surprised by how close these places are to the city. Even some locals are surprised to find certain new places to visit that are still unknown to most. We need to educate our people especially the younger generations to appreciate what our motherland has,” said Izra Izzuddin the Vice President of Marketing & Communications from Firefly Airlines.

Izra also added that Firefly wants every passenger to experience every sense that a human has to enjoy the journey and make it well worth.

  • See It connects to places, things and people
  • Hear It connects to local entertainment, what’s in, what’s happening and what’s new
  • Sense It ropes to the beach, food, garden, park, arts and atmosphere
  • Feel It binds to the journey, enjoyment, satisfaction and fulfilment
  • Touch It links to arts, batik, shopping items, museums
  • Taste It chains to local food and beverage.

Some of the main highlights included in the tour was the Royal Klang Town Heritage Walk, visit to the Mah Meri Cultural Village in Carey Island and Dong Zen Temple, located in Jenjarom. The tour continued on day two with a trip to the famous Sky Mirror in Kuala Selangor, and a quick stop over to Bukit Melawati where the main attractions include the presence of silvered leaf monkeys and long-tailed macaques, before making a final stop to visit the well-known Blue Mosque in Shah Alam.

“We have recognized a few new tourism attractions to focus this year for example, Sky Mirror Kuala Selangor, Royal Klang Heritage Walk, Kuala Kubu Bharu Eco Adventure Activities, Tanjung Sepat An Emerging Eco Agro Tourism, Kajang Heritage Centre and a few more others. Tourism Selangor has worked closely with the tourism industry players and other stakeholders to ensure they provide the best service and hospitality,” said Puan Noorul Ashikin Mohd Din, General Manager of Tourism Selangor.

As Firefly operates from Skypark Terminal 2, The Saujana Hotel Kuala Lumpur is the best choice for passengers as the facilities of this well-appointed resort include extensive dining choices, practical function areas with a luxurious grand ballroom, 17 meeting rooms and a host of delightful recreational activities to suit the needs of all travellers. The Saujana Hotel Kuala Lumpur is a member of WorldHotels, a global brand that brings together 500 of the world’s most unique independent hotels in 250 destinations across 65 countries worldwide.

“We are a tranquillity landscape where one can find endless possibilities to experience an enjoyable and relaxing stay experience with top class service quality,” said Peter Hourigan, Vice President of Operations/General Manager of The Saujana Hotel Kuala Lumpur.

The highlight of the evening on the second day was indeed the highly anticipated event, Media Mingle 2019 held at the Zamrud function room at The Saujana Hotel Kuala Lumpur. There was a brief presentation of each brands, by Firefly Airlines, Tourism Selangor and the event’s host, The Saujana Hotel Kuala Lumpur, where the business information and directions moving ahead in 2019 for each of the organization was shared.

GRAB Introduces New Regional Centre of Excellence

This Southeast Asia’s leading Online-to-Offline (O2O) mobile platform, launched its new Regional Centre of Excellence (RCoE) in its newly expanded 54,000 sq ft office space.

gno2

The Centre of Excellence will house Grab’s core business strategy and operational functions, including legal, customer experience, financial services and creative services. This is the second showing of Grab’s strong investment back into the country where it first started, with the first being the launch of its R&D Centre in Malaysia just last month, the 7th in Grab’s global R&D footprint, to nurture Malaysia’s deep tech talents.

gno1

The launch of its newly expanded office space was officiated by YB Datuk Ignatius Darell Leiking, Minister of International Trade and Industry.

By launching its Regional Centre of Excellence and R&D Centre in Malaysia, Grab will immediately create at least 400 new high-value jobs, bringing its total employees in Malaysia to 1,000.

The RCoE will spearhead development of an in-house pool of highly-skilled professionals who are experts in their respective domains. With Grab’s presence in 336 cities across 8 countries, they will be given the opportunity to take a regional lens in offering solutions and implementing projects.

The legal team will provide advice on regulatory, policy and legal issues that impact the entire region; the customer experience team will provide quality customer support for several countries; the creative and design team will develop creative assets for regional marketing campaigns and projects; and the financial services team will implement financial, procurement and risk management policies across all countries where Grab operate in the region.

The tech and engineering team in Malaysia’s R&D Centre will focus on building trust and safety solutions and capabilities that not only solve safety issues for citizens in Malaysia, but also across the whole of Southeast Asia. As Grab doubles down on its global investments in more advanced technology, data science, artificial intelligence and machine learning to make every ride, every delivery order, every financial transaction that takes place on our platform safer and more secure than ever before, the Malaysian tech and engineering team will play a pivotal role in setting a high bar for safety standards in Southeast Asia, and achieving our ultimate goal of zero preventable incidents on our platform.

“Malaysia is proud that it is the birthplace of a technology unicorn like Grab. Grab represents innovation, tenacity, creativity, a keen sense for business, and hard work – values that the Government aims to cultivate among Malaysian tech companies. We are happy to see Grab contributing back to Malaysia and committing to nurturing local tech talents and facilitating knowledge transfer through its R&D centre. As an everyday super app for Malaysians, Grab not only serves local transportation needs through its ride-hailing offering, but also plays a pivotal role in empowering local businesses through its delivery and payments platforms.” said Datuk Darell Leiking, Minister of International Trade and Industry at the launch.

“This is exactly what Malaysia needs to move ahead in our digital economy goals – more Malaysian companies who have done well at the global stage to heed the Ministry’s clarion call for quality investment back home to develop the nation, by creating high-value jobs and nurturing the next generation of Malaysian entrepreneurs.”

He added,

“Indeed the Government will continue to chart Malaysia’s digital transformation towards achieving greater economic prosperity and societal well-being. In this context, the National Policy on Industry 4.0 (Industry4WRD) and the National e-Commerce Strategic Roadmap (NeSR) are the key blueprints to “attract, create and transform”. In particular, this entails attracting key enabling technologies to create the right digital ecosystem; transforming the manufacturing and services sectors into “agile sectors”, and enabling Malaysian entrepreneurs to become ‘e-commerce ready’. Therefore, the Government encourages continued collaboration between the public and private sectors, in realising the action plans set out in both blueprints, for our mutual benefits.”

“Our strong investments in anchoring our Regional Centre of Excellence and latest R&D Centre in Malaysia is our response to the Malaysian government’s call for public-private partnerships to help drive Malaysia’s Industry 4.0 blueprint and digital economy ambitions. We are committed to helping Malaysia unlock greater economic gains by creating high-value jobs, nurturing deep tech talents, and attracting more Malaysians overseas to return home. We have always remembered our roots, as Malaysia is where we founded Grab almost seven years ago, with the simple goal of solving the problem of transportation safety. Now that we have grown beyond ride-hailing to become the leading SEA’s everyday super app, it is natural for us to contribute back to the country where we first started,” said Sean Goh, Country Head for Grab Malaysia.

“These investments are above and beyond our continued mission to make transportation accessible and safer for all, while at the same time, creating better income-earning opportunities for our driver and delivery partners, and enabling local businesses to leverage our user base and distribution network to earn higher business revenue. There is a lot more we can do to improve the daily lives of fellow Malaysians, and we want to partner closely with the Malaysian government to develop win-win regulations and policies that allow innovation to thrive, and best serve the interests of the larger Malaysian population”, added Sean.

Grab is committed to contributing to Malaysia’s Industry 4.0 blueprint in the following areas:
1. Shared, Seamless and Smart mobility solution for all: We will make transportation more accessible for all Malaysians. With the widest range of transportation services already readily available on our platform, we will work closely with governments, public and private transportation providers to serve the first-mile-last-mile transportation needs of Malaysians.

2. Better livelihoods and income-earning opportunities for driver-partners: 86% of our driver-partners supplement their income part-time with Grab. These driver-partners earn 37% more supplementary income with Grab, on top of their day-to-day jobs. Our GrabTaxi driver-partners also earn 10% more daily income compared to the past when they can only rely on street-hails and regular taxi bookings. We will continue to better the livelihoods of our driver-partners and offer increased income-earning opportunities, greater financial support, better technology tools and skills training, and more community activities for them and their loved ones.

3. Digital shop fronts for GrabFood, GrabRewards and GrabPay merchant partners: We will empower micro-entrepreneurs and small and medium-sized businesses to set up their digital presence on Grab app and leverage our user base and distribution network to earn higher business revenue.

4. Access to GrabPlatform to help like-minded start-ups and partners scale their business: Partners can either build their services into GrabPlatform or integrate Grab’s suite of technology and products into their own websites or apps, for example GrabPay for mobile payments, GrabExpress for logistics, or GrabProfiles for user authentication.

This will give partners direct access to Grab users and help scale their business faster.

A culmination of years of experience in premium design, craftsmanship and high technology, the Punch FullView display takes bezel-less displays to new heights with a minimalist blind hole opening for the 25MP camera. This design allows HUAWEI to eliminate the notch and achieve a screen-to-TP ratio of 91.8 percent, which makes for a truly natural and stunning viewing experience.

The 25MP front camera under the Punch FullView display is the industry’s smallest camera, measuring at only 3.05mm – 20 percent smaller than the current industry standard. The opening on the display is a blind hole, meaning the screen is not completely punched through. From assembly (sub-0.1mm margin of error) to adhesive application, the precise manufacturing processes minimise the light leakage from the edges of the blind hole. Additionally, HUAWEI optimised the light transmittance performance of the blind hole so it is on par to a through hole.

Artificial Intelligence Bolsters Video Editing and Gaming Support
The new HUAWEI Nova 4 fully utilises the hardware processing power and AI computation capacity of Kirin 970’s NPU to deliver a powerful and smart video editing experience. After taking a video with the HUAWEI Nova 4, users can activate the automatic footage analysis with one tap. This innovative feature leverages the smart aesthetics scoring engine. Trained with 60,000 basic models as well as one million facial models generated through facial recognition, the feature can automatically process
and edit footage.

Apart from that, the HUAWEI  Nova 4 also supports a new generation of GPU Turbo. This technology greatly enhances the graphics processing efficiency of smartphones by optimising the clock speed and power consumption of the chipset, allowing the HUAWEI Nova 4 to deliver an accelerated, top framerate experience even when running premium mobile games.

Furthermore, the GPU Turbo will serve as the foundation augmenting the core features of HUAWEI devices. It not only allows EMUI and application-layer graphics to run smoother, and supports nascent technologies such as AR and VR – it also endows the HUAWEI Nova 4 with limitless potential.

Pricing and Availability
Made for the youth, the HUAWEI Nova 4 is equipped with 128GB ROM and over-a-day 3,750mAh battery life. It is available in two fashionable colorways in Malaysia:

  • Crush Blue evokes a sense of mystery with a tinge of romance
  • Black exudes understated class.

Made available in Malaysia starting on 14th February 2019, the HUAWEI Nova 4 is retailing at a price of RM1,899.00 and can be purchased at all HUAWEI Experience Stores, display zones, authorised dealers and major telco companies.

Nova Academy
Also present at the launch event was Datuk Ahmad Izham Omar, CEO of Primeworks Studios, who announced a collaboration between HUAWEI, Primeworks Studios, and Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) on the Nova Academy. “Malaysia has an abundance of hidden gems and talented people especially in the entertainment industry, however, we don’t always get to tap onto their full potential.

The Nova Academy is an initiative to provide the right platform for our talents to get the education and in-depth training they need through a mentorship programme. I look forward to this exciting collaboration,” he said.

“Smaller Than Paper” New ASUS Zenbook 2019 Launched!

  • First-ever ZenBook models to use a four-sided frameless Nano Edge display,
    with ultra slim bezels and up to 95% screen-to-body ratio for near-borderless
    visuals
  • New design is the most compact ever, giving the ZenBook series the world’s
    smallest footprint in their class
  • Exclusive new Number Pad dual-function touchpad boosts productivity, and a 3D
    IR camera allows fast face login even in low-light environments 
  • Superb performance with latest 8th Gen Intel Core CPUs, up to NVIDIA GeForce
    GTX 1050 Max-Q graphics, 16GB RAM, PCIE ® SSDs and gigabit-class Wi-Fi

ASUS today debuted an all-new ZenBook series, with the launch of ZenBook 13 (UX333), ZenBook 14 (UX433) and ZenBook 15 (UX533). This fully redesigned series of premium thin and light laptops introduces the stunning new frameless Nano Edge display, which features ultra slim bezels on all four sides and an unrivaled up to 95% screen-to-body ratio 1 for a near-borderless viewing experience. The Nano Edge display also allows a much more compact design, with the result that each of the new ZenBook models has the smallest footprint in its class 2 .

The 13-inch and 14-inch models also optionally include the exclusive new Number Pad, an innovative productivity enhancement that provides a full-size LED-illuminated numeric keypad built into the touchpad. All models feature a special 3D IR camera that allows fast face login using Windows Hello, even in low-light environments.

img_20190110_140205

The combination of performance and mobility is a defining feature of the ZenBook series, and the new models feature a full complement of high-performance components including the latest 8th Generation Intel ® Core ™ i7 quad-core CPU, up to NVIDIA ® GeForce ® GTX 1050 Max-Q graphics, 16GB RAM, ultrafast PCIE ® SSDs and gigabit-class Wi-Fi.

All models are torture-tested to military-grade (MIL-STD-810G) reliability standards, with demanding tests that include environmental extremes of altitude, temperature and humidity, in addition to extensive drop, shock and vibration testing.

Ultraportable, redefined
The new ZenBook series ushers in a fresh era of ultra-compact, ultralight laptops that boast the smallest footprints in their class, a feat made possible by the new frameless Nano Edge design. The stunning frameless Nano Edge displays now feature ultra slim bezels on all four sides, creating an unrivaled 92% screen-to-body ratio that maximizes the screen area in the minimum physical space.

Complementing the groundbreaking new design, the traditional ZenBook style and elegance is apparent at a glance: all models feature the iconic Zen-inspired spun-metal finish on the lid, and there’s a choice of prestigious Royal Blue or sophisticated Icicle Silver anodized finishes, both newly enhanced with a contrasting Rose Gold trim bar above the keyboard for an extra touch of luxury.

img_20190110_140253

No-compromise productivity
For the ultimate on-the-go productivity, ZenBook 13 and 14 are equipped with the exclusive new ASUS Number Pad. Number Pad solves the age-old problem of the lack of a dedicated numeric keypad on compact laptops. Tapping the Number Pad icon at the top right corner of the touchpad reveals a full-size LED-illuminated numeric keypad, allowing rapid and intuitive data entry or calculations. ZenBook 15 features a traditional physical numeric keypad.

All models feature an advanced 3D infrared (IR) camera, with see-in-the-dark capabilities to ensure fast, reliable hands-free face login with Windows Hello — even in dimly-lit environments. Unlike some rivals with awkwardly placed cameras, on ZenBook the camera is located on the slim top bezel of the Nano Edge display — yet another thoughtful design detail.

Advanced voice-recognition capabilities on the new ZenBook series means users can be entertained, informed, and organized simply by speaking to Alexa or Cortana. Alexa is a cloud-based voice service that helps users with tasks, entertainment, general information, and more. Using Alexa is as simple as asking a question. Just ask to play music, read the news, control a smart home, tell a joke, and more — Alexa will respond instantly.

When working on the go, it’s vital to be able to connect with anything and everything. The new ZenBook series features the revolutionary USB Type-C ™ (USB-C ™ ) port for any-way-up connections and superfast USB 3.1 Gen 2 (up to 10Gbps 3 ) data transfers, and there’s also a range of other USB ports, including USB Type-A (up to 5Gbps or 10Gbps) and/or USB 2.0 4 . All models also include an HDMI port and a microSD or SD card reader, so it’s easy to connect to all your current and future peripherals.

With any ZenBook, comfort is one of the top design priorities. The new ZenBook series goes the extra mile with the exclusive ErgoLift hinge, an engineering masterpiece designed to automatically tilt the keyboard to the most comfortable typing position. But that’s not all: the carefully calculated tilt improves cooling and audio performance, too.

img_20190110_140334

Unbounded performance
The new ZenBook series is built to deliver unbounded on-the-go performance, featuring up to the latest 8th Generation Intel ® Core ™ i7 processor and a range of fast graphics options, including up to NVIDIA ® GeForce MX150 discrete graphics on ZenBook 13 and 14. ZenBook 15 is equipped with high-performance NVIDIA GeForce ® GTX 1050 Max-Q GPU.

All models are equipped with PCIe ® SSDs and up to 16GB of RAM, making ZenBook ideal for creating complex documents, mining data, retouching photos, editing videos, or simply taking a gaming break. The new ZenBook series lets users do more, and do it quicker.

Mobile professionals need to stay connected — at the fastest speed possible. All new ZenBook models feature gigabit-class Wi-Fi and ASUS Wi-Fi Master technology, for ultrafast downloads and smooth streaming with greater range and more stable network connections than ever before 5 . Additionally, the latest Bluetooth ® 5.0 lets users access all the benefits of the latest low-power peripherals and accessories.

Designed for non-stop, on-the-go lifestyles, the new ZenBook series gives users the freedom to work all day on a single battery charge — up to an impressive 14 hours for ZenBook 13, 13 hours for Zenbook 14 , and an incredible 17 hours for ZenBook 15.

Ultra-tough: Military-grade durability
The new ZenBook series meets the ultra-demanding MIL-STD-810G military standard for reliability and durability, undergoing a punishing test regime that includes extended tests for operation in harsh environments including extreme altitudes, temperatures and humidity. The series has also passed ASUS internal laptop tests that far exceed the standards set by the industry. ZenBook is the ultratough ultraportable, the perfect choice for discerning on-the-go professionals.

Mercedes-Benz Performance & Achievement 2018

2018 is the fifth consecutive record year for Mercedes-Benz Malaysia (MBM). The distinctive three-pointed star shined brightly in 2018 with an extraordinary performance of 13,079 vehicles sold, translating into a 9% overall growth. Capturing a 2.4 per cent market share*, the achievement cements Mercedes-Benz as the undisputed luxury lifestyle brand in Malaysia and the global arena.

MBM President and CEO, Dr Claus Weidner said: “2018 was another successful year in the 15 year-long extraordinary journey for Mercedes-Benz Malaysia and the Mercedes-Benz brand. Our efforts to invigorate the brand experience for our increasingly diverse fans have been fruitful and we are happy to retain our position as the number one luxury lifestyle brand. Our great combination of Best Products, Best Service and Best Customer Experience continues to drive the brand “success and we assure our customers and fans that this will continue to be our focus.”

He added, “Offering a seamless customer experience to our valued customers is a core value that we uphold and we believe this is important to ensure sustainability of the business. The mantra has always been about “Putting the customer at the centre of our activities.”

Commenting on the 2018 performance, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at MBM, Mark Raine said, “We are extremely proud of our history-making performance for 2018. We delivered 13,079 Mercedes-Benz Cars to customers, further cementing our position as the leading premium brand in Malaysia. Our fresh-faced product portfolio with the locally assembled Mercedes-AMG C 43 and GLC 43, and all-new Mercedes-Benz A-Class has succeeded in keeping our fans excited about the brand. Furthermore, we gave the market a taste of the future with the EQ Concept this year. We intend to keep the momentum going with more exciting events and products in 2019.”

In 2018, MBM’s performance was spearheaded by the locally produced limousines, which recorded 7,910 units sold. Following closely were the Mercedes-Benz SUVs with 2,613 units sold, particularly by the locally produced Mercedes-Benz GLC 200 and GLC 250. The German marque expects continued positive demand for this segment.

The 20 vehicle launches spread throughout 2018 sustained the healthy momentum of demand for Mercedes-Benz vehicles. The key launches included the locally- assembled Mercedes-AMG C 43 and GLC 43, Mercedes-AMG E 53 Sedan and Mercedes-AMG E  53 Coupé, its New Dream Cars Collection, the New Mercedes-Benz S-Class Family, and the all-new Mercedes-Benz A-Class and new generation C-Class. Additionally, MBM showcased the brand’s innovative edge with the EQ Concept premiere in Kuala Lumpur – a first in Southeast Asia. The milestone has positioned Mercedes-Benz as a reinventer of the automotive industry with the EQ brand, pioneering the direction and setting the stage for future mobility.

Going hand-in-hand with its Best Products, MBM spearheaded engaging activities to match a diverse fan base aligned to its overall Best Customer Experience commitment. MBM engaged with fans through events like Urban Hunting x ULTRA Singapore 2018, Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in Kuala Lumpur, the Mercedes Trophy and introduction of the AMG Owners Club Malaysia (AOCM) which are aimed at elevating the AMG experience with exclusive access to all things AMG for owners. Complementing the seamless ownership experience, Mercedes-Benz Services Malaysia (MBSM) recorded a steady growth in line with the three-pointed star’s progress. For the year, MBSM financed four out of every 10 Mercedes-Benz vehicles sold and has a solid servicing portfolio of MYR 2.7 billion**

MBSM’s commitment to innovative peace-of-mind financing and insurance solutions was further embodied with the introduction of new products like AgilityPlus and Lease2Go. MBM’s emphasis on upholding Best Customer Experience at every touchpoint translated into the highest Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI) After-sales score in history. The achievement has demonstrated the brand’s excellence in managing the high volume of Mercedes-Benz vehicles by maintaining high levels of customer satisfaction. The passion and expertise behind the Best Customer Experience brand promise was showcased once again in this year’s Mercedes-Benz SEA II Skills Competition. 2018 marked the competition’s 10th anniversary and first year opening its doors to the South East Asia II (SEAII) region. A total of 613 Customer Services Professionals and Advanced Modern Apprenticeship finalists competed for the title of best technician, service advisor and process specialist within the Mercedes-Benz network.

The celebrated technicians and customer services personnel make up the backbone of MBM’s 35 dedicated dealerships nationwide. In tandem with its growing fan base, MBM launched five new touchpoints last year including the NZ Wheels Klang Autohaus, Hap Seng Star Setia Alam Autohaus and Asbenz Stern Kuantan Autohaus among others. Trained with a view of keeping customers at the centre, every touch point is key in delivering the Best Products and Best Customer Service throughout the entire customer journey. To date, Mercedes-Benz has the largest premium dealer network in the country.

Recognising the dedication, passion and hard work of its dealer partners, MBM held the inaugural Dealer of the Year awards in March 2018. The award is poised to be an annual event aimed at rewarding dealerships for operational excellence and commitment to delivering the Best Customer Experience.

Another exciting offering introduced in the network for 2018 was the Mercedes-Benz Certified pre-owned vehicle programme. The programme represents the highest quality in used cars from Mercedes-Benz worldwide, previously known as Proven Exclusivity. Mercedes-Benz as a brand has invested over MYR 1 billion in the Malaysian market since 2003 and MBM’s production plant in Pekan, Pahang demonstrates its long-term position and consistent commitment to the Malaysian economy. In FY2018, the production plant produced 9,854 vehicles, including the newest addition being the Mercedes-Benz S 450 L and the Mercedes-AMG C 43 4MATIC Facelift.

MBM’s long-term commitment is also demonstrated through the Mercedes-Benz Malaysia Training Academy built to develop the skills of Malaysia’s youth and create meaningful job opportunities in the automotive industry. 2018 saw an additional 26 apprentices graduated bringing the total to 853 globally certified local apprentices who have passed through its doors since the establishment of the training programme. On its outlook for the year ahead, Dr Weidner said, “2019 will be another exciting year for Mercedes-Benz with refreshing innovations and new benchmarks to elevate the customer experience. We are excited to share these updates in due time.” Earlier today, Daimler AG announced that on a global level Mercedes-Benz sold approximately 2.3 million cars worldwide in 2018, increasing its unit sales by 0.9 per cent, making 2018 the most successful year in terms of sales in the company’s history. The new sales record in the car division of Daimler AG was driven in particular by the success of Mercedes-Benz in the Asia-Pacific region. Asia-Pacific was identified as the region with the strongest growth in 2018, delivering 943,473 (+7.8%) Mercedes-Benz cars to customers in 2018. Mercedes-Benz Malaysia was one of the few markets in the Asia Pacific region to have delivered more passenger cars than ever before in a single year.

Bengkel Bento MILO UHT Kongsi Cara Penyediaan Bekal Berkhasiat

Jadi mak-mak di luar sana dapat sediakan bekal makanan anak-anak yang berkhasiat dan menambah tenaga sepanjang hari di sekolah apatah lagi sesi persekolahan pun baru saja bermula. Puas hati bila tengok anak-anak kekal cergas sepanjang hari!

milo® pack in the energy for champions bento box worksop 05

Bengkel ‘Pack in the Energy for Champions: Bento Box Workshop’ yang memasuki tahun KETIGA penganjuran ini memberi tunjuk ajar  kepada ibu bapa tentang cara-cara menyediakan bekal makanan yang seimbang dan bertenaga untuk anak-anak mereka yang belajar di peringkat sekolah rendah.

milo® pack in the energy for champions bento box worksop 11

Bengkel ini merupakan sebahagian daripada program aktivasi MILO® UHT yang berlangsung selama TIGA hari di 1Utama, Bandar Utama sempena tahun persekolahan baharu.

“Matlamat kami adalah untuk membantu ibu bapa memastikan anak-anak mereka mendapat khasiat penting bukan sahaja dari segi perkembangan mental dan fizikal malahan keperluan tenaga mereka. Penyediaan bekal makanan yang seimbang di rumah akan membantu anak- anak membuat pilihan makanan yang lebih sihat semasa berada di luar, di samping memupuk tabiat pemakanan lebih sihat,” kata Angeline Lim, Pengurus Pemasaran Pengguna – MILO®, Unit Perniagaan Nestlé Ready-to-Drink, Nestlé (Malaysia) Berhad.

Pada bengkel tersebut, MILO® juga mengambil peluang untuk berkongsi satu fakta yang kurang diketahui oleh ibu bapa – iaitu kanak-kanak setiap hari memerlukan lebih banyak tenaga daripada yang disangkakan yang turut memberikan kesan terhadap pengambilan pemakanan mereka.

Sebagai contoh, ramai ibu bapa tidak sedar bahawa seorang kanak- kanak sekolah rendah menggunakan sehingga 1,500kcal tenaga dalam sehari – bersamaan dengan tenaga yang diperlukan untuk menghabiskan larian separuh maraton atau berenang 50 pusingan di kolam renang!

“Kehidupan harian kanak-kanak adalah lebih mencabar daripada yang disangkakan. Kajian menunjukkan badan manusia kehilangan kira-kira 80 peratus tenaga simpanan semasa tidur1. Ini menunjukkan betapa pentingnya ibu bapa membantu anak-anak memulakan hari mereka dengan cara yang betul untuk kekal cergas di sekolah. Selaku peneraju pemakanan sihat, kami berkongsi dengan ibu bapa tentang kepentingan penyediaan bekal makanan yang seimbang di rumah bagi membantu menggantikan semula tenaga dan khasiat anak-anak mereka, supaya mereka mampu mengatasi cabaran hari persekolahan,” tambah beliau.

Bengkel ini menampilkan Georgen Thye, pakar pemakanan serta pengasas Georgen Cooking yang menjelaskan keperluan nutrien seseorang kanak-kanak yang sedang membesar.

Beliau juga berkongsi petua penyediaan bekal makanan di rumah berpandukan Pinggan Sihat Malaysia atau “Suku-Suku-Separuh” yang membahagikan suku hidangan pertama kepada protein, suku kedua karbohidrat dan separuh lagi sayur-sayuran serta buah-buahan. Beliau menegaskan mudarat mengabaikan sarapan yang dapat menyebabkan kanak-kanak mengalami kehausan tenaga.

“Sebagai hidangan pertama dalam sehari, kepentingan sarapan memang tidak dapat dipertikaikan. Satu pertiga kanak-kanak didapati mempunyai tahap aktiviti fizikal yang rendah apabila mereka tidak mengambil sarapan. Untuk membantu kanak-kanak mengekalkan tumpuan dalam kelas serta aktiviti kokurikulum, ibu bapa haruslah menyediakan sarapan yang sihat lagi seimbang. Bekal makanan yang disediakan di rumah, lebih-lebih lagi yang sarat dengan bahan-bahan berkhasiat seperti bijirin penuh, sayur-sayuran, buah-buahan, daging tidak berlemak, kekacang, kacang dan biji-bijian dapat membantu memenuhi jurang tenaga tersebut.”

Beliau disertai Lee Samantha, artis makanan yang terkenal dengan hasil ciptaannya yang luar biasa, berwarna-warni dan unik dalam sesi demonstrasi bersama beberapa resipi bekal makanan yang mudah dan cepat untuk dibawa ke sekolah.

Dengan hanya berbekalkan alatan seharian, bahan-bahan yang segar lagi sihat serta daya imaginasi yang tinggi, Lee berkongsi beberapa tip menarik mengenai hiasan makanan yang mudah dengan pelbagai bentuk potongan untuk menceriakan bekal bento supaya kanak- kanak teruja untuk menikmati makanan mereka.

“Penyediaan bekal makanan merupakan satu cara menyeronokkan dan bermakna bagi merapatkan hubungan ibu bapa dengan anak-anak, di samping mendidik mereka mengenai makanan dan khasiat. Selain itu, fikiran ibu bapa juga lebih tenang apabila mengetahui anak- anak mereka membawa bekal makanan seimbang yang disediakan di rumah bagi membantu meningkatkan prestasi mereka di sekolah. Sebagai seorang ibu, rekaan makanan saya menitikberatkan aspek khasiat, keseimbangan dan keseronokan supaya dua anak perempuan saya dapat menikmati makanan mereka. Malahan, itu juga cara yang berkesan untuk mengelakkan pembaziran kerana saya akan menggunakan sebanyak bahagian yang mungkin bahan dalam hiasan saya,”

MILO® UHT mudah untuk dipadankan dengan bekal makanan yang sihat dan seimbang bagi membantu ibu bapa memastikan anak-anak mereka mendapat tenaga yang mencukupi untuk memenuhi keperluan seharian mereka.

MILO® UHT mengandungi ACTIV-GO®, iaitu kombinasi unik PROTOMALT™, pelbagai mineral serta vitamin yang penting untuk membantu membebaskan tenaga secara efisien daripada makanan. Minuman berkhasiat ini juga mengandungi kalsium dan Vitamin D untuk membantu mengekalkan kekuatan tulang dan gigi. Kanak-kanak yang mengambil minuman malt mempunyai pengambilan mikronutrien yang lebih tinggi, dan lebih cenderung memenuhi Saranan Pengambilan Nutrien (RNI) untuk kalsium, fosforus dan vitamin B3.

MILO® UHT didatangkan dalam pek sekali hidang 125ml dan 200ml serta pek pelbagai hidang 1L yang boleh didapati di kedai-kedai serbaneka, pasar raya mini, pasar raya biasa dan pasar raya hiper.

Projek CAREton 2019 Tetra Pak dan Nestle Bakal Kitar Semula 35 Juta Pek Minuman

Projek Tetra Pak® dan Nestlé MILO® UHT ini memberi banyak manfaat kepada komuniti setempat.

the careton project 2019 (3)

Selain merancang untuk mengitar semula 35 juta pek minuman, mereka juga memperkenalkan benefisiari yang baharu iaitu Majlis Bandaraya Petaling Jaya.

 

the careton project 2019 (2)

Projek CAREton merancang untuk mengumpul dan mengitar semula pek minuman yang akan diproses bagi menghasilkan papan panel serta genting atap poli Aluminium (polyAl).

Projek CAREton mula beroperasi pada tahun 2012 bersama EPIC Homes, sebuah pertubuhan bukan kerajaan yang membantu memudahkan pembangunan perumahan berasaskan komuniti setempat dengan masyarakat Orang Asli di Malaysia sebagai benefisiarinya.

Sejak itu, ia berjaya membekalkan genting atap dan papan panel untuk membina lebih daripada 150 buah rumah dan infrastruktur untuk komuniti setempat.

Pada tahun ini, bersama MBPJ sebagai benefisiari terbaharu, Projek CAREton bermatlamat untuk memperluaskan manfaat projek ini kepada komuniti tempatan di kawasan Petaling Jaya.

Pek minuman yang terkumpul akan dikitar semula dan dihasilkan menjadi 1,000 papan panel polyAl yang akan dibekalkan kepada MBPJ. Papan panel tersebut akan digunakan sebagai sebahagian daripada struktur luar dan dalam Eco Recycling Plaza, serta kawasan rekreasi dan taman-taman komuniti yang terletak di Petaling Jaya.

Datuk Bandar Petaling Jaya, Dato’ Mohd Azizi bin Mohd Zain yang telah merasmikan pelancaran tersebut menyatakan,

“Kami berbesar hati dan bersyukur menjadi sebahagian daripada Projek CAREton kerana bantuan tersebut akan memberikan nafas baharu kepada kemudahan yang sedia ada dan menambah baik kesejahteraan warga komuniti di Petaling Jaya. Semua pihak memainkan peranan yang amat penting demi kebaikan alam sekitar, kami berharap kerjasama ini akan lebih meningkatkan kesedaran dan didikan mengenai usaha pengitaran semula.”

Ruang untuk meningkatkan kesedaran dan usaha sama berkaitan pengitaran semula
Terrynz Tan, Pengarah Alam Sekitar Tetra Pak Malaysia, Singapura & Filipina berkata bahawa, trend pengitaran semula sedang mencatat peningkatan, kita masih ada ruang untuk menarik perhatian dan mendidik lebih banyak individu mengenai usaha pengitaran semula terhadap pek minuman.

“Kami telah mengusahakan inisiatif ini sejak tahun 2012, dan kebanyakan pencapaian yang digarap adalah berdasarkan usaha yang ditaburkan oleh rakan-rakan kongsi kami serta orang awam. Kami ingin menggalakkan warga Malaysia untuk terus memainkan peranan mereka dengan mengitar semula pek-pek minuman sambil mendidik orang lain tentang proses pengitaran semula yang amat mudah untuk dilakukan. Anda hanya perlu melakukan 3F (‘flip’, ‘flap’ dan ‘flat’) – pertama sekali, masukkan straw ke dalam pek minuman; kedua, buka semua lapikan untuk meleperkan pek tersebut; akhir sekali, bungkuskannya dan letakkan ia di mana-mana lokasi pengumpulan yang disediakan oleh rakan kongsi kami,” 

Ng Su Yen, Pegawai Eksekutif Perniagaan untuk Unit Perniagaan Nestlé Ready-to-Drink, Nestlé (Malaysia) Berhad berkata,

“Nestlé mengambil berat tentang penanganan sisa pembungkusan dan kami komited untuk menjadi sebahagian daripada solusi tersebut. Oleh itu, kami sentiasa mencari solusi pengitaran semula yang efektif seperti Projek CAREton. Sepanjang tujuh tahun yang lalu, Projek CAREton berjaya mengumpul 60 juta pek minuman untuk dikitar semula – jumlah yang cukup untuk membina lebih daripada 150 buah rumah dan projek komuniti yang telah memberi kesan positif terhadap ramai individu. Ia sejajar dengan impian global kami menjelang tahun 2025 untuk menjadikan 100% daripada bahan pembungkusan kami berupaya digunakan semula atau dikitar semula. Ramai warga Malaysia yang menikmati pek minuman MILO® kami saban hari, dan kami berharap untuk memupuk tabiat pengitaran semula yang lebih baik dalam kalangan orang dewasa serta yang muda.”

Pengguna boleh meletakkan pek minuman mereka yang telah digunakan di mana-mana pusat koleksi CAREton – terdapat sekitar 500 pusat koleksi di seluruh Malaysia.

SHOPEE Prescribe ‘Laughter Medicine’ Online

This online medicine is available by Comedian Harith Iskander who joins the Shopee Celebrity Squad via The Joke Factory (TJF).

Photo 2

With so much going on in our lives: chasing for weekly targets, attending endless meetings and cleaning the house after a long day at work, some of us may have forgotten how to take a break, let alone laugh. Research and studies have also shown that there is a correlation between ‘laughter’ and ‘health’, the former having positive effects on the latter.

To encourage Malaysians to let down their hair more and have a good laugh, Harith will be joining the Shopee Celebrity Squad and opening The Joke Factory (TJF) official store on the platform. He joins the likes of Dato’ Sri Siti Nurhaliza Tarudin, Dato’ Seri Dr. Hajah Vida, Scha Alyahya & Awal Ashaari, Ummi Nazeera, Shuib Sepahtu and Siti Sarah who also have their official stores on Shopee.

At the TJF official store, Shopee users will be spoilt for choice with the selection of daily shows they want to watch before purchasing the show tickets, fuss-free. The store will soon sell merchandise as well as food packages to offer Malaysians the ultimate comedy experience.

The Joke Factory in Publika Shopping Gallery, Kuala Lumpur, was introduced by Harith and his wife Dr. Jezamine Lim Iskander in August 2018. Lauded to be Malaysia’s Premiere Comedy Venue, it offers Malaysian-styled entertainment of international quality as well as food and beverage so the audience will have the best of both worlds. Apart from English, it also hosts comedy in Bahasa Malaysia, Tamil, Cantonese and Mandarin.

It is also at that venue where the launch of TJF by Harith Iskander official store on Shopee was held, witnessed by invited guests and the media. They also got a treat from the man himself, breaking into fits of laughter as he performed his jokes and antics on stage.

Harith has grown from a comedian into a world-recognised humour pundit, placing Malaysia on the international comedy map twice. He not only won Laugh Factory’s “Funniest Person In The World” 2016 competition but is also the first Southeast Asian comedian to have his own original comedy special “I Told You So” on Netflix.

“It has always been my mission to spread laughter in more ways than one to Malaysians. My wife and I are constantly seeking exciting ways to keep the local entertainment scene fresh and relevant. We are every bit excited to join the Shopee Celebrity Squad that has a line-up of amazing celebrities who are also selling their products on Shopee. Going on Shopee also allows us to reach out to its 16 million users, further bridging us and Malaysians as we continue to work towards spreading joy, laughter and humour in their lives. We look forward to having a fun-filled and long-term collaboration as we grow together in offering Malaysians the best there is,” comedian and TJF co-founder Harith Iskander enthused.

The Shopee Celebrity Squad was launched in May 2018 to allow fans and Shopee users to officially purchase curated products from their favourite celebrities with convenience. To date, there are more than 20 celebrities on board with more joining the family in months to come.

With the aim of growing their brand’s exposure, the Shopee Celebrity Squad will utilise an array of marketing channels including the in-app portal, social media and more. Aside from providing a digital platform for the celebrities to feature their brands, Shopee also partners with the celebrities on various offline activities that brings fans and celebrities closer. This include meet and greet sessions, roadshows and events.

“Through these various initiatives, Shopee has helped boost sales from participating stores by up to 10 times. As a testament, SIMPLYSITI by Dato’ Sri Siti Nurhaliza Tarudin saw an uplift in orders, an increase of over 112% during the Shopee 9.9 Super Shopping Day as compared to a normal day. During the global Shopee 11.11 Big Sale, the Shopee Celebrity Squad stores received an average 7 times uplift in traffic compared to a normal day. With Harith’s The Joke Factory making its debut on the platform, Shopee is able to add another dimension of products to its users. Our users will be thrilled to know that they can receive updates on the latest laughs as well as attractive promotions The Joke Factory will be offering through the platform,” said Rachel Tan, Marketing Lead, Shopee Malaysia.

The show tickets on The Joke Factory official store on Shopee will be available 20 December 2018 onwards for upcoming shows in 2019 as the shows this year have already ended.

To grab special deals in conjunction with the launch, Shopee users will stand to enjoy a 30% off, capped at RM20, on show tickets from 20 December to 27 December 2018.

Just enter the promo code HARITH20 before making the payment; limited to one code per user.

SUNSILK #Siscuba Kolaborasi SUNSILK Hijab & Media Prima

Drama pendek LIMA siri ini menampilkan tiga kawan baik yang berusaha merealisasikan impian mereka sewaktu zaman sekolah menengah.

Photo 028

Mawar, Nora dan Yasmin, meskipun sudah mempunyai kerjaya masing-masing, namun berkerjasama untuk merealisasikan impian zaman sekolah mereka dalam menghasilkan tudung jenama mereka sendiri dalam Drama Sunsilk #Siscuba, kolaborasi antara Sunsilk Hijab Recharge dengan Rangkaian TV Media Prima.

Namun, bolehkah impian untuk memiliki empayar perniagaan sendiri sejak dari zaman sekolah masih dicapai walaupun terdapat perselisihan faham antara sahabat-sahabat yang dulunya rapat?

 

Drama Sunsilk #Siscuba, yang dibawa khas oleh Sunsilk Hijab Recharge di TV3, mengisahkan perjalanan tiga sahabat yang berusaha untuk mencapai impian mereka, sepadan dengan matlamat utama rangkaian syampu Sunsilk untuk memupuk gadis muda mengejar impian dengan penuh keyakinan.

Mawar, seorang yang kreatif dan mempunyai bakat ciptaan reka tudung yang cantik, terkenang memori zaman persekolahannya dengan dua sahabat baiknya, Nora dan Yasmin apabila terlihat jenama syampu kegemarannya, Sunsilk memuat naik satu kempen dengan #siscuba di laman sosial Instagram. Impian untuk memulakan perniagaan dengan menjual tudung rekaan sendirinya dihidupkan kembali dan Mawar mendapat inspirasi untuk memperbaiki hubungan sahabat-sahabatnya supaya mereka bertiga boleh bercuba untuk merealisasikan impian mereka sejak zaman sekolah lagi.

Nabila Razali yang memainkan watak Mawar dalam drama Sunsilk #Siscuba kata,

“Saya amat teruja kerana diberi peluang bekerjasama dengan Sunsilk Hijab Recharge. Mesej persahabatan dan semangat memupuk gadis muda untuk mencapai impian dengan penuh keyakinan yang terkandung dalam kempen Sunsilk #Siscuba ini memang mengharukan dan saya berharap ia akan memberi motivasi kepada para penonton dan pengguna Sunsilk Hijab Recharge untuk berusaha dalam mengejar impian mereka tanpa berputus asa.”

“Kami memahami bahawa rambut merupakan mahkota seorang wanita dan rambut yang sihat dan cantik, walaupun memakai hijab, memainkan peranan yang penting dalam tahap keyakinan diri seseorang. Objektif utama kempen Sunsilk #Siscuba ini adalah untuk memperkasa gadis muda untuk mengejar impian mereka dengan penuh keyakinan sama ada bertudung atau tidak, dengan mementingkan penjagaan kesihatan rambut untuk memiliki rambut segar dan sihat, dan kami tetap komited dalam matlamat ini,” kata Natalie Goh, Pengurus Kategori Rambut, Unilever (Malaysia) Holdings Sdn. Bhd.

Goh juga berkata,

“Kami sedar bahawa masalah rambut dan kulit kepala akan mempengaruhi tahap keyakinan diri seseorang individu, tidak kira sama ada mereka memakai hijab atau tidak. Jarangkali terdapat syampu atau perapi rambut yang berkesesuaian dengan gaya hidup pemakai hijab. Oleh itu, kami telah mengeluarkan siri Sunsilk Hijab Recharge bagi mengatasi masalah rambut dan kulit kepala disebabkan cuaca negara yang panas dan lembap seperti masalah kulit kepala berminyak, berkelumumur, rambut mudah gugur dan berbau kepam yang biasanya dialami oleh para pemakai hijab.”

Siri Sunsilk Hijab Recharge ini menggunakan keistimewaan bahan-bahan semula jadi seperti buah tin, ginseng dan sitrus dan mengeluarkan tiga varian:

  • Segar Berhijab
  • Anti Rambut Gugur
  • Anti Kelumumur.

Formula baharu, iaitu Anti Rambut Leper, yang diperkenalkan tahun ini, menggunakan pati strawberi dan daun pudina untuk memberi kesegaran kepada pemakai hijab sehingga 48 jam selepas pembasuhan. Rambut tidak dibebankan kerana kelantangan rambut ditahan sepanjang hari walaupun selepas memakai hijab.

Pertandingan pantun dengan Sunsilk #Siscuba dan HotFM

Di samping penerbitan drama, kempen Sunsilk #Siscuba ini dilengkapi dengan pertandingan pantun dua kerat dianjurkan oleh saluran radio HotFM. Pertandingan ini melihat lebih daripada 1,600 buah pantun dimuatkan naik, dan populariti #Siscuba semakin menaik berikutan siaran drama Sunsik #Siscuba juga.

Daripada 1,600 lebih penyertaan pantun yang diterima, 10 telah dipilih sebagai pemenang.

IMG_20181205_105238(1) 

 Selari dengan namanya, Nature’s Heart, makak tidak hairanlah produk ini menawarkan pilihan jenis makanan dan minuman kesihatan berkualiti tinggi kepada orang ramai disamping kekal aktif melalui pergerakan ‘menunggang dan bergerak. 

Dengan pengambilan makanan dan  minuman kesihatan yang betul, maka ia membekalkan tenaga untuk menjalani kehidupan seharian lebih-lebih lagi semasa menjalani aktiviti kesihatan.

IMG_20181205_102307

Guardian Malaysia dengan itu mengadakan program bersama Nature’s Heart baru-baru ini di mana jemputan yang hadir diperkenalkan kepada cabaran ‘spinning’ iaitu kelas menunggang basikal dalam bangunan. Aktiviti ini memerukan penggunaan banyak tenaga dalam masa yang smaa, diiringi dengan pencahayaan dan sistem suara berteknologi tinggi.

Aktiviti ini diadakan susulan kepada sudah tiba masanya rakyat Malaysia menjalani kehidupan yang lebih sihat memandangkan kajian yang dilakukan oleh The National Health and Morbidity pada tahun 2015 menunjukkan sebanyak 47.7% rakyat dewasa mempunyai kolesterol tinggi. Manakala kajian dari World Health Organisation 1998 pula mendapati 17.7% rakyat dewasa dikategorikan sebagai ‘Obese’ dan 1 daripada tiga orang mempunyai berat badan berlebihan.

Dalam kajian yang sama juga mendapati 94% rakyat Malaysia tidak mengambil buah-buahan dan sayur-sayuran segar dalam pemakanan mereka sedangkan sudah diketahui umum bahawa fiber adalah keperluan terpenting dalam diet pemakanan yang sihat.

Dalam program kesihatan itu, Joanna Soh, No 1 Asia Fitness Youtuber telah berkongsi cara-cara menghasilkan ‘Edible Terrarium’ mengguna produk Nature’s Heart.

“Aktiviti Spinning boleh membakar antara 400 hingga 600 kalori dalam sejam. Untuk melakukan aktiviti lasak seperti ini, tubuh badan memerlukan makanan yang baik. Edible Terrarium yang saya kongsikan ini bukan sahaja cantik di mata tetapi sedap apabila dimakan. Saya mengguna Nature’s Heart Chia Seed, Dried Cranberries, Roasted Mixed Nuts dan Oat Biscuits with Raisins sebagai kandungan Edible Terrarium kerana kesemuanya ini memberi kebaikan nutrisi yang diperlukan oleh badan. Bukan itu sahaja, ia juga ideal dimakan selepas menjalani aktiviti yang lasak”

Menurut Tan Eu Jin, Pengurus Produk Healthcare Own Brand, Guardian Health and Beauty,

“Jenama Nature’s Heart ini sememangnya popular sebagai jenama snek yang baik untuk kesihatan terutamanya Chia Seed dan Milled Flax Seed. Nature’s Heart memastikan makanan snek ini penuh dengan kebaikan kesihatan dan sedap di makan pada bila-bila masa memandangkan persepsi masyarakat apabila diberitahu ia adalah makanan kesihatan, maka makanan tersebut kurang rasa dan kurang enak. Maka Nature’s Heart bekerja keras untuk mengubah persepsi ini dengan mengadakan banyak aktiviti kepada orang ramai dan memberi sampel makanan bagi meastikan bahawa rangkaian produk Nature’s Heart boleh diambil bagi mereka yang menjalani kehidupan sihat”

Produk Nature’s Heart sememangnya terkenal kerana menawarkan pelbagai kebaikan kesihatan di mana suber-sumbernya diperolehi dari pelbagai negara termasuk Australia, India, Turkey dan Amerika Syarikat.
