Trials And Triumphs Part Of Every Athlete's Journey
GENERAL KUALA LUMPUR, July 13 (Bernama) -- Win or lose, the bittersweet nature of competition is something every athlete must embrace, said Her Majesty Raja Zarith Sofiah, Queen of Malaysia. Her Majesty said that as a mother, she will continue to offer unwavering support and prayers for her children's success and safety in their sporting endeavours. "I extend the same wish to all Malaysian athletes, regardless of their discipline — may you remain spirited and always give your best to bring pride to our beloved country. 'In the end, we place everything in the hands of Allah SWT. Never forget that whatever the outcome — be it fortune or setback — it is all part of His divine will,' Her Majesty said in a post on Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar's official Facebook page. According to the post, Raja Zarith Sofiah, who is currently in Japan, shared in both the joy and disappointment experienced by her sons, who had contrasting results in the second race of the GT World Challenge Asia series at the Fuji Speedway Circuit today. Tunku Panglima Johor Tunku Abdul Rahman continued his impressive form with a commanding victory, leading from start to finish alongside co-driver Ben Green in the #99 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 GT3.R. However, Tunku Putera Johor Tunku Abu Bakar and teammate Jordan Love were dealt a blow in the final corner of the race. Driving car #66, they were on course for a podium finish before being hit by another competitor, forcing them to retire. Both Johor Motorsports Racing (JMR) Corvette Z06 GT3.R entries had started the race from the front row after securing first and second place in yesterday's qualifying session. -- BERNAMA

Elderly artist sells traditional Chinese art for RM10
WHEN there are artists producing luxurious artwork and reserving them for the 'elite', an elderly man in a wheelchair breaks that narrative by selling traditional Chinese paintings, known as guó huà, for just RM10. Sharing the story on Threads, @dyannakamal_ called on netizens to support this gifted artist — not only by buying his artwork but also by recognising his talent and dedication at his age, despite his physical limitations. She emphasised that it is everyone's responsibility to support talents like him, especially in an era where AI-generated artworks are booming and threatening the authenticity of real art. She added that backing him is something the public can do whenever they are in Bukit Bintang or Pasar Seni, where he is often seen. Diyanna also highlighted that producing guó huà art is no easy task, and that art students should understand the amount of effort it requires and he offers them for the lowest price possible. 'It really breaks my heart and touches me deeply because back then, my dad was also an artist. 'I remember when I was a kid, he used to paint murals at this one college, but not a single person appreciated his art. 'It's really sad that they didn't even give him any money or, at the very least, a small token of appreciation,' she shared, stressing the importance of appreciating artists. In response, @ who is also an artist, expressed her frustration with the art industry, commented 'It's sad, isn't it? Meanwhile, people who make meaningless, stupid art can sell it for thousands. Why does this world treat real artists like this?' 'His art is to survive. May Allah SWT ease everything for this uncle,' added Izzat, praying for his well-being.
