Ultraman hype returns with DRUM collab and Faizal Hussein's touching tribute to hero dads
KUALA LUMPUR, May 30 — Malaysian actor Faizal Hussein shines in a heartfelt new promo for the DRUM x Ultraman fashion collaboration. In the video, Faizal portrays a father who seems to have lost interest in Ultraman — until his daughter launches a DRUM Ultraman fashion line for Father's Day, rekindling his childhood admiration for the iconic hero. The narrative strikes a sentimental tone, culminating in the moving tagline: 'Every dad was a kid once. Some never stop being heroes'. Fans will recognise several well-known Ultra figurines featured throughout the video, including Ultraman Zero and Ultraman Regulos. The DRUM x Ultraman collection was unveiled yesterday at a pop-up event held at Lot 10, Bukit Bintang, where it was attended by VIPs, guests, members of the Ultraman fan club called Ultraman Malaysia Crew (UMCrew). Members of Ultraman Malaysia Crew, an Ultraman fan club, pose for a photo with Ultraman Tiga and event MC, Hani. — Photo courtesy of Ultraman Malaysia Crew Faizal himself was present, sporting a signature DRUM Ultra jacket and even posing for a photo with none other than the legendary Ultraman Tiga. The event will run until June 1, giving fans a chance to visit and express their love for the Ultra Hero. DRUM, a Malaysian fashion brand known for its men's and women's streetwear — including T-shirts, shirts, jumpers, hoodies, jeans, and jackets — is the latest local label to collaborate with the Ultraman IP, following previous partnerships with TNTCO and Pestle & Mortar. The Ultraman phenomenon continues to captivate Malaysians, most recently with The Ultra Tour at Sunway Putra Mall, which concluded on May 12. Now, with Ultraman Arc The Movie: The Clash of Light and Evil hitting Malaysian cinemas this July at TGV, Ultraman is set to be the talk of the town again.

Two programme managers deny involvement in forged police summons scam
KUALA LUMPUR, May 26 — Two motoring programme managers pleaded not guilty today in two separate Magistrate's Courts here to charges of using forged 'Saman Hadir' (summons to appear) notices resembling official Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) documents to deceive the public. Tan Kok Ho, 43, and Denise Tan Ying Chyuan, 47, made the pleas after the charges were read out before Magistrates Atiqah Mohamed @ Mohamad Saim and Illi Marisqa Khalizan, respectively. According to the charges, both accused were jointly charged with using fake 'Saman Hadir' notices resembling official PDRM documents, with the intent to deceive and mislead the public. The offences allegedly took place at a shopping mall parking lot in Bukit Bintang and at the Bukit Jalil National Stadium on May 10 and 11, 2025. The charges were framed under Section 471 of the Penal Code and punishable under Section 465 read with Section 34 of the same law, which provides for a maximum imprisonment of two years, a fine, or both upon conviction. Earlier, deputy public prosecutors Nurainizatul Farhana Zainal and Syafika Azwa Fikri requested that bail be set at RM7,000 in one surety for each accused. However, lawyer Phang Soon Mun, representing both men, appealed for a lower bail of RM3,000 on the grounds that his clients, who each earn RM5,000 a month, need to support their families. Phang added that Kok Ho, who suffers from health issues, requires regular hospital visits, and both accused had cooperated fully during the investigation. He also argued that there was no flight risk, as their families are based in Malaysia. Atiqah set bail at RM2,500 in one surety for each accused, while Illi Marisqa fixed bail at RM3,500 in one surety. Both courts fixed July 2 for mention. A viral video previously circulated on social media showing an individual receiving a notice resembling a police summons placed on a car windscreen, sparking public concern over what appeared to be a new scam tactic.— Bernama
