What's next after your miraculous stage 4 cancer cure, Jamal Yunos? Stage 5 cancer, leukaemia or heart attack?
SUNGAI Besar UMNO division head Datuk Seri Jamal Md Yunos should have resorted to whispered prayers to express gratitude to divine intervention of having been 'finally free of cancer after a five-month battle for his life'.
While it remains a mystery as to why he chose to publicly declare his miraculous healing from his stage four cancer, the Barisan Nasional (BN) Selangor communications head has certainly shot himself in the foot after political adversary Tressa Kok reminded him of payback time.
'Congratulations,' posted the Seputeh MP on her Facebook in response to a news article quoting Jamal as stating that the intensive treatment he underwent had completely removed the cancer. 'Time for Jamal to pay my lawyer as ordered by the court.'
Recall that the DAP lawmaker has in October last year obtained a court order to seize and sell the contents of Jamal's house after the latter failed to pay RM50,000 for her legal costs upon losing a RM300,000 defamation lawsuit that dated back to July 26, 2022.
On April 6, 2017, Kok sued Jamal for defamation after he accused her of misappropriating RM2 mil of funds from the Selangor state Government's Yayasan Warisan Anak Selangor (YAWAS).
The former DAP vice-chairman was reported to have originally sought RM1 mil in general damages along with compensatory, aggravated and exemplary damages and an injunction to prevent Jamal from repeating or spreading the allegations.
Interestingly, not only had Kok demanded what's due to her, Malaysians, too, are keen to learn the secret to the tuala (towel) man's Stage 4 lung cancer healing for lives of many Malaysian cancer patients can be saved in the future.
But that went on a bad start for Jamal's healthy physique is a tad too deceptive to people who had previous contact with cancer patients.
'Where got cancer 🤦♀️look so healthy and chubby. I've seen real cancer patients,' exclaimed one commenter.
Many want to know the identity of the oncologist who could reverse a stage 4 cancer to full healing.
Well, the 'Red Shirts' leader (a parody of Thailand's 'Yellow Shirts' protest against former prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra and his successors) certainly deserves an Oscar for pulling out his 'stage 4 cancer agony' stunt. – June 11, 2025

Private healthcare firm fined RM50,000 for running unlicensed ambulatory care centre in Kuching
The offence was committed at the company's premises located at Jalan Simpang Tiga here around 11am on April 6, 2023. – Photo from KUCHING (June 12): The Sessions Court here today fined a private healthcare company RM50,000 for operating an unlicensed ambulatory care centre in 2023. Judge Iris Awen Jon imposed the fine after the company's director pleaded guilty to a charge under Section 3(c) of the Private Healthcare Facilities and Services Act 1998, punishable under Section 5(1)(b) of the same Act. The Section provides for a fine not exceeding RM500,000 upon conviction. According to the charge, the company had operated a private ambulatory care centre without a licence. The offence was committed at the company's premises located at Jalan Simpang Tiga here around 11am on April 6, 2023. Based on the facts of the case, the Sarawak Health Department through its Private Medical Practice Control Section raided the premises on suspicion of operating an ambulatory care centre without approval from the Ministry of Health. During the inspection, two individuals acting as representatives of the premises failed to produce any documents related to the registration or licensing of the facility when requested by enforcement officers. Based on the testimony and evidence gathered during the inspection, it was found that the premises was operating as a private ambulatory care centre without a valid licence, offering medical treatments including enhanced external counter pulsation (EECP) therapy and intravenous drip treatment. The raiding team also seized various medications and equipment, including a stethoscope, blood pressure set, automated external defibrillator device, EECP machine, electrocardiogram machine, oxygen cylinder, Nitroglycerin Sublingual tablets, Sodium Chloride 0.9 per cent solution, patient records, and other documents. During the proceedings, Sarawak Health Department prosecuting officer Norzaizeli Abu Samah urged the court to impose a deterrent sentence on the company, citing public interest and potential medico-legal implications in the event of medical negligence. She noted that the company had offered EECP treatment at its premises, administered by a general practitioner. Norzaizeli stressed that such treatment requires – at minimum – a licensed private ambulatory care centre overseen by a cardiologist or internal medicine specialist. The company was represented by lawyer Daniel Ling. fine private healthcare company unlicensed ambulatory care centre

Covid-19 remains a threat: Expert urges early testing, treatment and updated vaccination
Timely testing and vaccination not only benefit individuals, but also help curb the spread of the virus within families and communities, as most severe cases often begin with mild symptoms that may go unnoticed. 12 Jun 2025 06:00am Individuals who have been vaccinated are more likely to recover faster, avoid hospitalisation and reduce the risk of developing post-Covid-19 complications, including 'long Covid'. - 123RF photo KUALA LUMPUR - The public, particularly high-risk groups, are recommended to get the latest Covid-19 vaccine, which has been adapted to current variants, to ensure more effective protection. Family medicine specialist and Medical Mythbusters Malaysia vice-president Dr Megat Mohamad Amirul Amzar Megat Hashim said that, although many Malaysians have been vaccinated, earlier doses may no longer offer adequate protection against the latest circulating variant. Individuals who have been vaccinated are more likely to recover faster, avoid hospitalisation and reduce the risk of developing post-Covid-19 complications, including 'long Covid'. - 123RF photo "Therefore, it is important to get vaccinations that are tailored to the current variant. The Ministry of Health (MOH) also continues to recommend that high-risk individuals keep their vaccination status up to date, particularly those who are planning to travel, attend large gatherings, or live with elderly people or individuals with weakened immune systems,' he said in a statement, yesterday. According to the MOH, over 11,000 Covid-19 cases have been reported since January, serving as a clear reminder that the public should not become complacent, even though the figure remains below the official alert threshold. Commenting further, Dr Megat said that individuals who have been vaccinated are more likely to recover faster, avoid hospitalisation and reduce the risk of developing post-Covid-19 complications, including 'long Covid'. He also emphasised the importance of early screening, urging those who feel unwell, or experience symptoms such as sore throat, fatigue, fever, body aches, or stomach upset, which could be early indicators of Covid-19 infection, to get tested promptly. "If someone feels unwell and belongs to a high-risk group, getting tested is not only about protecting oneself, but also about safeguarding family members and the wider community,' he said. "We now have access to treatments that can prevent complications, but their effectiveness depends on early intervention. Dr Megat explained that timely testing and vaccination not only benefit individuals, but also help curb the spread of the virus within families and communities, as most severe cases often begin with mild symptoms that may go unnoticed. "This responsibility is no longer just personal, it is directly tied to our collective duty to protect our loved ones,' he said. "By getting tested early and staying up to date with vaccinations, we also help ease the burden on the national healthcare system, and shield those who are most vulnerable. He also encouraged the public to use the MySejahtera application to check their eligibility for booster doses, and to conveniently book vaccination appointments. For more information on Covid-19 symptoms, vaccinations, or to locate the nearest testing centre, the public is advised to refer to the MySejahtera app, or consult a healthcare professional. - BERNAMA
