MACC outlines strategies to combat large-scale corruption at MICGI 2025
PUTRAJAYA: The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) detailed its strategic approach to tackling large-scale corruption at the Malaysia International Conference on Governance and Integrity (MICGI) 2025. The event, held here, saw MACC's Special Operations Division senior director Datuk Mohamad Zamri Zainul Abidin outlining key measures to enhance enforcement and policy reforms. Mohamad Zamri highlighted intelligence gathering through technology, forensic evidence collection, and asset recovery as critical strategies. He also addressed emerging threats like cyber corruption and money laundering via cryptocurrency, stressing the need for stronger digital asset seizure mechanisms. 'He also emphasised the importance of policy reforms, the establishment of domestic and international special task forces, as well as the implementation of Section 17A of the MACC Act 2009, which introduces corporate liability for organisations,' the MACC stated. The commission underscored the necessity of combating foreign bribery to protect national sovereignty and the integrity of Malaysian businesses globally. 'The MACC's aggressive efforts in fighting corruption through the government's whole-of-government approach contribute to financial security, investor confidence, and the preservation of the nation's reputation,' the statement added.

Preparations In Full Swing For Borneo Flora Festival 2025
LABUAN, July 18 (Bernama) -- Preparations for the Borneo Flora Festival 2025 are well underway, with thousands of flowering plants being placed across the island, in stages, to create a vibrant and festive atmosphere ahead of the grand event. A wide variety of vibrant plants is being meticulously arranged at strategic locations, including the main venue at the Labuan International Sea Sports Complex, the Financial Park Complex, major roundabouts, public parks, and key gateways, such as Labuan Airport and ferry terminals. Labuan Corporation chief executive officer, Mohd Sukuran Taib, said that the initiative aims to transform Labuan into a 'living garden', reflecting this year's festival theme of celebrating biodiversity, conservation and community creativity. The Borneo Flora Festival 2025, organised by Putrajaya Corporation in collaboration with Labuan Corporation, the Federal Territories Department, and Kuala Lumpur City Hall, will officially kick off on July 26. Her Majesty Raja Zarith Sofiah, Queen of Malaysia, is scheduled to grace the opening ceremony at the Labuan International Sea Sports Complex. This year's festival will feature more than 29 themed gardens, showcasing exotic and endangered flora native to Borneo, alongside contemporary landscape designs presented by local councils, private sector players, and community groups. 'The five-day event will include plant exhibitions, soft and hard landscape gardens, eco-talks, art installations, live performances by Malaysian artists, and family-friendly activities designed to raise environmental awareness and promote sustainable living,' Mohd Sukuran said. He added that the polybag planting strategy was adopted not only to enhance aesthetics, but also to allow for flexible, controlled growth and easier relocation, as the final designs take shape. 'Each phase of planting has been meticulously planned to ensure that the flowers are in full bloom when the festival begins. The strategic placement of 250,000 flowering plants across the island is part of our broader effort to infuse Labuan with the vibrant spirit of the festival,' he said.

Malaysian Woman Finally Quits Job After 7 Years Without Raise, 5 Years Without Bonus
Subscribe to our FREE A Malaysian woman has gone viral after sharing her decade-long employment saga that reads like a masterclass in workplace complacency. The accounts receivable assistant, posting under @nabilaoreo on Threads, worked at the same company for 10 years while watching her salary crawl from RM1,500 to RM2,250, with zero raises in the last seven years and no bonuses for five. Her reason for staying? Pure, unfiltered honesty: 'I'm too lazy to learn new things, too lazy to find new work. I've gotten used to this company.' The woman admitted she'd settled into what she called her 'comfort zone' – a five-minute commute from home and familiar work routines that made job hunting feel unnecessary. She even thought she'd retire there. Then reality hit. When her company announced it would relocate to Kuala Lumpur in 2026, she finally snapped out of her employment trance and started job hunting. 'I've found a new job now, so I managed to seize the opportunity to leave before the company relocates. I feel relieved and grateful for this chance,' she wrote. The Internet Weighs In Her post struck a nerve, with other workers sharing their own stories of workplace inertia. One commenter reported an 11-year stint at the same company, during which they received only three salary adjustments, resulting in a salary increase from RM1,400 to RM2,100. Their reason for staying? 'No work pressure, off at 5:30 PM, weekends free. But the work environment isn't what it used to be, so I'm starting to waver.' Another employee with nearly 20 years at their company took a more philosophical approach: 'If you already feel stable, have enough to eat and wear, and don't have many loans, you'll be lazy to change jobs. Everyone's attitude is different – as long as you're comfortable, even small annual raises are acceptable.' Bila berkaitan kerja, you have to ask. Jangan malu. Nak naik gaji? Minta. Nak cuti? Minta. Nak tukar department? Minta. Ajak bincang dengan supervisor pasal the opportunity to work full time. Takde apa nak dimalukan lah. Dulu I muka tak malu minta mesin kopi kat big boss, dan… — Edd | UIUX Designer & Career Strategist (@eddthinksdesign) The Comfort Zone Trap The woman's story highlights a common workplace phenomenon: the comfort zone that becomes a career quicksand. Her five-minute commute and routine familiarity created a bubble that took a company relocation announcement to burst. Her candid admission – 'I'm lazy to learn new things' – resonates with workers who've found themselves coasting in jobs that provide stability but little growth. The good news? Sometimes, external circumstances force us to make decisions that we're too comfortable making ourselves. Her company's move to KL became the push she needed to prioritise her career development finally. READ MORE : READ MORE : READ MORE : READ MORE : Share your thoughts with us via TRP's .
