'Upin' and 'Ipin' to be sacrificed for this year's Aidiladha

Focus Malaysia11 hours ago

TWO cows, named 'Upin' and 'Ipin' and weighing 800kg and 780kg respectively, are part of a group of 22 high-quality cattle set to be sacrificed at the Tayyib Ranch Qurban Carnival 2025, held in conjunction with this year's Aidiladha celebrations.
Mohd Sakhedan Sidek, Managing Director of Tayyib Ranch Sdn Bhd, shared that these Limousin cattle will be slaughtered at the carnival site located at Shah Alam Stadium tomorrow.
They were purchased by different buyers for RM20,000 and RM25,000 respectively.
Besides Upin and Ipin, the Qurban offerings include breeds such as Brahman, Charolais, Blonde, and Black Angus, all aged between three and four years.
These cattle come from Kelantan and Terengganu, weigh between 700kg and 1,000kg, and are priced from RM10,000 up to RM45,000.
Mohd Sakhedan noted that the demand for premium sacrificial cattle has been steadily increasing as more people appreciate the value of selecting top-grade animals for Qurban.
He explained that these premium breeds are preferred because they provide more meat and are considered to be of superior quality, making them especially suitable for distribution to those in need (asnaf) as a source of quality nutrition.
In total, 100 cattle will be sacrificed during the Qurban rituals at the carnival site, which runs from tomorrow until Sunday.
Visitors will also have the opportunity to witness Tayyib Ranch's methods of managing the slaughtering process.
The Tayyib Ranch Qurban Carnival 2025 will continue for 10 days until 8 June, showcasing over 100 cattle with prices ranging from RM4,000 to RM45,000, depending on the breed and the Qurban package selected. —June 6, 2025

MICSEA hails stamp duty exemption for pre-2025 employment contracts

Lai says the decision reflects the government's commitment to supporting businesses while ensuring regulatory compliance through proper enforcement. – Bernama photo KUCHING (June 7): The Malaysian Industrial, Commercial and Service Employers Association (MICSEA) has lauded the government's move to grant stamp duty exemptions for employment contracts signed before Jan 1, 2025. Its president YK Lai said the decision reflects the government's commitment to supporting businesses while ensuring regulatory compliance through proper enforcement. 'Recognising the high volume of employment contracts between employers and employees that were not stamped as required under the First Schedule of the Stamp Act 1949, the Ministry of Finance, under the leadership of the Madani Government, has decided to grant full stamp duty exemption and penalty waivers for employment contracts signed before Jan 1, under Subsection 80(1A) and Subsection 47A (2),' he said in a statement yesterday. He added that contracts signed between Jan 1 and Dec 31, 2025, will still be subject to stamp duty, but late penalty charges will be waived provided the documents are stamped by Dec 31 this year. Meanwhile, Lai noted that for contracts signed from Jan 1, 2026, onwards under the new Self-Assessment System for Stamp Duty (STSDS), full stamp duty and applicable penalties will be enforced. He said the exemption and penalty waiver for pre-2025 contracts demonstrates the government's sincere commitment to fostering a collaborative environment and ensuring fair enforcement. As such, he urged all employers and human resource professionals to use this opportunity to review and update all employment contracts to ensure full compliance ahead of the 2026 STSDS implementation. lead MICSEA stamp duty exemptions

MCMC Clarifies Mobile Phone Data Collection Amid Media Reports, Ensures Privacy

KUALA LUMPUR, June 6 (Bernama) -- The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) has clarified its collection of mobile phone data (MPD) from Mobile Network Operators (MNOs), assuring that no Personally Identifiable Information (PII) is accessed, processed, or disclosed. The clarification comes amid recent media reports regarding the matter. In a statement today, MCMC said MPD was used strictly for the generation of official statistics to support evidence-based policymaking in two key domains, namely the ICT Sector and the Tourism Sector. For the ICT Sector, MPD helps produce granular statistics, such as the number of active mobile broadband subscriptions and penetration rates at the state, district, mukim, parliamentary constituency, state legislative assembly (DUN), and local authority levels. For the Tourism Sector, it generates indicators such as the number of visitors and domestic tourism trips. 'The MPD data requested from MNOs is anonymised and contains no PII. 'In addition, MNOs are given the option to either process the MPD data within their own secure environment and submit the required anonymised and aggregated output to MCMC, or, for MNOs without in-house processing capabilities, to submit the anonymised data to MCMC for processing. 'In both cases, no individual subscriber can be identified through the data collected,' it said. MCMC further clarified that the use of MPD as a new source of national statistics was a strategic direction set by the government to strengthen the quality and timeliness of statistical outputs for policy and planning purposes. Implementation of MPD is through collaboration with the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and the UN Committee of Experts on Big Data and Data Science, it added. Over the past two years, MCMC said extensive engagement with all MNOs had been carried out to ensure mutual understanding of the data requirements, processes, and privacy safeguards.

CPO Futures End Lower On Rising Output Concerns

By Durratul Ain Ahmad Fuad KUALA LUMPUR, June 5 (Bernama) -- The crude palm oil (CPO) futures contract on Bursa Malaysia Derivatives ended lower today due to concerns over rising production, according to palm oil trader David Ng. He said weaker soybean oil prices on the Chicago Board of Trade during Asian trading hours also weighed on market sentiment. 'The rising production is mainly due to seasonality. We see prices supported at RM3,800 per tonne and resistance at RM4,000 per tonne,' he told Bernama. At the close, the spot-month June 2025 and July 2025 contracts dropped RM42 each to RM3,904 per tonne and RM3,923 per tonne, respectively. August 2025 fell RM45 to RM3,903 per tonne, September 2025 and October 2025 declined RM47 each to RM3,890 per tonne and RM3,886 per tonne respectively, and November 2025 reduced RM40 to RM3,891 per tonne. Trading volume improved to 64,761 lots from 59,422 lots yesterday, while open interest edged up to 245,562 contracts from 245,345 contracts previously. The physical CPO price for June South decreased by RM50 to RM3,950 per tonne. -- BERNAMA
