[Watch] Malaysian Influencer MSPUIYI Reveals Her USD45,000 Annual Skincare Investment
Subscribe to our FREE At just 26, Malaysian social media sensation MSPUIYI has lifted the curtain on her meticulous beauty regimen, revealing she spends a whopping USD45,000 (RM190,575) annually on skincare – all without going under the knife. In a candid revelation that's both fascinating and eye-opening, the influencer, whose real name is Siew Pui Yi, shared how she's maintained her youthful appearance through a combination of preventive care and regular treatments since her early twenties. Her monthly routine reads like a luxury spa menu: regular whitening injections, bi-monthly facial treatments, and yearly laser lifting procedures combined with collagen injections to maintain her signature cherubic cheeks. The breakdown of her annual beauty budget is equally impressive: USD20,000 (RM84,600) on facial treatments, USD12,000 (RM50,760) on medical aesthetics, and USD13,000 (RM54,990) on stem cell therapy – all self-funded, without sponsorships until recently. Inside the Six-Figure Beauty Regime That Keeps Her Looking 23 The investment appears to be paying off. Recent skin assessments suggest her skin age hovers around 23, despite her chronological age of 26. 'There's many advertisements or marketing on achieving the perfect camera-ready face – in long hours but it really takes a lot of work and dedication. I'm just a more detailed informant,' she shares, pulling back the curtain on the effort behind her flawless appearance. It's a testament to the old adage that beauty requires dedication, though perhaps not everyone's version comes with such a hefty price tag. Her transparency offers a rare glimpse into the real cost of maintaining a public image in the digital age, where one's face is quite literally one's fortune. For MSPUIYI, who has built her career on her image, it's simply the cost of doing business. From DJ Decks to Beauty Empire Beyond the filtered world of Instagram, where MSPUIYI commands an audience of 25 million followers, lies a multi-faceted entrepreneur who's turned her digital influence into an empire. By day, she's the force behind beauty brands Kiseki Skincare and MSPUIYI Cosmetics; by night, she takes to the decks as a DJ, adding her own beat to Malaysia's vibrant nightlife scene. The social media star, whose hourglass figure has become as famous as her business acumen, isn't just about surface appeal.

Business group wants government to ease SMEs' burden from Fomema policy changes
KUALA LUMPUR: The Federation of Malaysian Business Associations (FMBA) has urged the government to address the challenges faced by the small and medium enterprises following policy changes by the Foreign Workers Medical Examination Monitoring Agency (Fomema). FMBA chairman Datuk Seri Abdul Malik Abdullah said the changes were made "without adequate stakeholder consultation" and were a major shift in Malaysia's foreign worker regulations. "These unexpected expenses posed a substantial burden on SMEs, which often operate with tight margins, especially in the era of post Covid-19, when many SMEs are still struggling to keep afloat." In December 2023, Fomema mandated annual medical exams for foreign workers, replacing the previous biennial requirement. Fees rose from RM190 to RM207 for male workers (an increase of 8.9 per cent) and from RM207 to RM217 for female workers (an increase of 4.8 per cent). "The announcement of these changes came just one day before implementation, leaving many SMEs unprepared for the sudden costs and operational adjustments required." Malik said the new policy increased administrative workload of SMEs and was particularly challenging for smaller businesses with limited human resource capabilities. He said Fomema also deemed foreign workers with "uncontrolled non-communicable diseases (NCDs)" as an unsuitable for employment. "NCDs like hypertension, diabetes and high cholesterol are prevalent among working Malaysian adults, who contribute to the productivity and growth of the nation. "NCDs are also treatable and controllable. Countries such as the United Kingdom, Japan, Germany, India and China do not impose this requirement." Malik said FMBA had raised their concerns with the Health, Home, and Investment, Trade and Industry Ministries. "Currently, employers and foreign workers lack access to medical records from screenings, which should be provided to both parties. "Employers, having funded these screenings, should have rights to relevant health information. "In this regard, FMBA recommends that a copy of the medical examination report be prepared and provided to the employer." Malik said the examination costs were compounded by other recent policies, including a multi-tiered foreign worker levy, higher minimum wage, mandatory Employee Provident Fund contributions and Employment Injury Scheme and Invalidity Scheme under the Social Security Organisation.

Sapura Energy returns to profitability, bolstered by restructuring momentum
PETALING JAYA: Sapura Energy Bhd (SEB) staged a turnaround for the financial year ended Jan 31, 2025 (FY25) with profit after tax and minority interest of RM190 million, compared to loss after tax and minority interest of RM509 million in the previous year. Revenue in FY25 stood at RM4.7 billion, an increase of RM385 million, or 8.9% or year-on-year, while the group's earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, and amortisation was RM524 million, the group said in announcing its audited financial results today. SEB's external auditors, Messrs Ernst & Young PLT, accompanied the FY25 audited financial statements with an unqualified audit opinion. In their report, the auditors said SEB's annual financial statements were prepared based on the assumption that the group and the company will continue operating. However, they highlighted a significant uncertainty about this assumption, as the group's and company's current liabilities exceed their current assets, and the group is experiencing serious cash flow problems. Despite the challenges, the financial statements of the group and the company have been prepared based on the assumption that they will continue operating as a going concern. This assumption largely depends on the timely approval, execution and completion of the proposed regularisation plan by the long stop date of March 11, 2026. The plan is essential for carrying out the schemes of arrangement, the conditional funding agreement, and settling business issues related to finished engineering and construction projects on time.

FY2025 revenue stood at RM4.7 billion, increasing by 8.9 percent or RM385 million year-on-year, while the Group's Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation, and Amortisation ('EBITDA') stood at RM524 million.

Despite the report, SEB said the financial statements of the Group and of the Company have been prepared on a going concern basis, the validity of which is highly dependent on the timely approvals, execution and completion of the Proposed Regularisation Plan on or before the Long Stop Date (i.e. 11 March 2026), which is necessary for the Schemes of Arrangement, the Conditional Funding Agreement and the commercial settlements related to terminated Engineering & Construction projects to take effect within the stipulated timeframe.

Sapura Energy posts RM190mil profit in FY25, but going concern risks remain
KUALA LUMPUR: Sapura Energy Bhd has returned to profitability for the first time in six years, posting a net profit of RM190 million for the financial year ended January 31, 2025 (FY25), compared to a net loss of RM509 million in FY24. The group's revenue rose 8.9 per cent year-on-year (YoY) to RM4.7 billion, driven by improved performance across its core business segments. The audited financial statements for FY25 were accompanied by an unqualified audit opinion from external auditors Messrs. Ernst & Young PLT (EY). However, EY highlighted a material uncertainty regarding the company's ability to continue as a going concern. In its report, EY noted that the group's current liabilities still exceed its current assets and that Sapura Energy continues to face severe liquidity challenges. Despite this, the financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis, which EY stated is contingent upon the timely approval, execution, and completion of the Proposed Regularisation Plan by the Long Stop Date of March 11, 2026. The plan is crucial for activating the group's schemes of arrangement (SOA), conditional funding agreements, and settlements tied to previously terminated engineering and construction (E&C) projects. Similar going concern uncertainties were flagged in FY2022, FY2023, and FY2024. These concerns included the need for extensions of restraining orders, favourable legal outcomes related to E&C claims, and at least 75 per cent approval from scheme creditors at court-convened meetings for the SOA. Over the past few years, Sapura Energy has met several critical milestones, enabling progress on finalising its regularisation plan. The group is targeting a formal submission to Bursa Malaysia by May 2025. In a filing with Bursa, the board expressed confidence in the group's future, stating that the successful execution of key restructuring initiatives has laid a strong foundation for the completion of the regularisation plan.
