The operation involved 46 enforcement personnel from KPDN, the Kuala Terengganu City Council (MBKT), and the district health offices of Kuala Terengganu and Kuala Nerus. 'The raids were conducted following complaints from a registered trademark holder, and the products were found to violate the Trademarks Act 2019,' he said in a statement today.

High Court upholds RM780,000 awarded to sacked exec
The High Court in George Town, Penang, upheld an earlier decision by the Industrial Court. GEORGE TOWN : The High Court here has upheld an Industrial Court's decision awarding nearly RM800,000 in back wages and compensation to a senior employee of a semiconductor firm who was wrongfully dismissed in 2018. The High Court's decision will see Kon Siang Boon, a former global account manager at Molex (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd, retaining the RM789,333.58 awarded to him by the Industrial Court last year. The High Court also ordered the company to pay RM7,500 in costs. Justice Anand Ponnudurai, in his ruling today, said there was no error of law in the Industrial Court's findings, and that the court had rightfully preferred Kon's version of events over the company's, based on the credibility of witnesses. Kon, who had been attached with the company for nearly 30 years, was accused of making fraudulent claims while on a business trip, which Molex claimed breached company policy, and was subsequently sacked in 2018 after a domestic inquiry. The Industrial Court, however, found the dismissal unjustified and procedurally flawed. At the time of his dismissal, he was earning over RM21,000 a month, with bonuses and allowances. According to the facts of the case, from 2016 to November 2017, Kon submitted meal and transport claims under the prevailing company travel policy, which were all approved by his superiors. Molex revised this policy on Nov 1, 2017, to bar meal claims. However, the Industrial Court found that this revised policy had not been clearly communicated to Kon. The court accepted Kon's testimony that he only became aware of the new rules in December 2017 and had stopped making such claims after that. In delivering his ruling, Anand said the Industrial Court's decision was reasonable and backed by detailed analysis.

Redonah: Give women more opportunities
Published on: Sunday, July 27, 2025 Published on: Sun, Jul 27, 2025 By: Noor Zafira Zayn Text Size: 'Give us the space to shape policies, make decisions and work together to take Sabah to greater heights," said Redonah. PARTI Gagasan Rakyat Sabah (Gagasan Rakyat) Women's Chief Datuk Redonah Bahanda called for more opportunities for women to be fielded as candidates, appointed senators and to lead government-linked companies (GLCs). 'I urge that the current six female assemblypersons, along with the one Nominated Assembly member, not only be retained but that the number of female candidates be increased in the coming 17th state election. 'The Pintasan Assemblyman, Datuk Fairuz Rendaan, should also be retained.' Speaking at the opening of the Gagasan Rakyat Sabah 2025 Conference, Saturday, she said the State Government's continued initiatives to enhance women's participation through various incentives demonstrated Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor's commitment to women's empowerment. 'Last year's conference saw the initiatives realised in the Sabah 2025 Budget, with an allocation of over RM21 million channelled through the Women's Affairs Department (Jhewa), Yayasan Usaha Maju Sabah Credit and the Institute for Development Studies (IDS) to empower women in economic and social fields,' she said. Redonah added that the Gagasan Rakyat Women's Wing had been consistently active through the Salam Sayang outreach programme, aimed at maintaining continuous engagement with voters in every constituency. 'From the party's inception, the women's wing has been on the ground reaching out to all segments of society, alongside the youth wing, which has been systematically and swiftly implementing various programmes, and the Beliawanis who have also been continuously engaging with young women, including through initiatives involving students at higher learning institutions. 'Women are not just vote canvassers or crowd fillers at events, youths are not merely cheerleaders and flag bearers and Beliawanis are not simply decorative figures. 'We all contribute our energy and ideas alongside the leaders we admire, the Chief Minister as Party President and the Deputy President,' she said. Redonah added that Sabah's future depended on the leadership and direction being set today. 'Give us the space to shape policies, make decisions and work together to take Sabah to greater heights. 'The future cannot be built by waiting, it must begin now. 'I also encourage everyone to make full use of social media to promote and amplify the party's cause.' * Follow us on our official WhatsApp channel and Telegram for breaking news alerts and key updates! * Do you have access to the Daily Express e-paper and online exclusive news?
