Two officers hospitalised after shock deliberate attack in Gold Coast
Two Gold Coast police officers had to be hospitalised after an ATV ramming on Sunday morning. Gold Coast Acting Chief Superintendent Peter Miles said the officers were conducting patrols in an ATV in Kingsholme when they were targeted. The officers' attention was drawn to a vehicle parked on the side of the road, which they thought looked a bit suspicious while driving towards the vehicle. 'A male and a female, alighted from a nearby area, got into that vehicle, and then deliberately rammed that ATV. 'The force of the collision was enough to push the ATV into the path of another vehicle, a third vehicle that was driving nearby.' The pair were taken to Pindara Hospital for treatment, have been discharged and will remain off work to recover from the whiplash caused by the incident. Police are looking for the offending vehicle, a white Isuzu MUX with a wraparound bullbar, a black snorkel on the driver's side, and black mag wheels. The number plates have been revealed to be fake after police checks, and it is unclear at this stage whether they were stolen or cloned. Chief Superintendent Miles said that they don't know who the offenders are, and if they 'haven't got returned to prison warrants'. 'They've got real reasons to want to be away from police and get away,' he said. 'They didn't hang around to see if those officers were severely injured or not – it's all about them, it's a selfish act. 'They're willing to do this to police, ram police cars, they'll ram anyone. Anyone who's in their way is a problem for them, and that certainly is concerning as well.' The police ATV, which was worth $25,000, was written off in the crash with the intention to be replaced to continue patrols in the bushland isolated areas. Chief Superintendent Miles is appealing in Kingsholme area between 11am and 12pm on Sunday with any CCTV and dashcam footage to come forward. 'These officers were just out there doing their job, being proactive, keeping their community safe, and this is what happens, they end up spending the afternoon in hospital,' he said. 'There used to be that fine line where police weren't targeted as much as members of the public, not anymore. It's just a sad indictment of where we are with some members of the community, and that's why we're very keen to get them (offenders) into the watch-house.'

SM Entertainment Artists Celebrate 30 Years With SMTown Live L.A.
Fans of SM Entertainment-signed K-Pop acts braved an unseasonably hot day for a chance to see members from 13 groups perform at Carson's Dignity Health Sports earlier this month. Known as one of Korea's 'big three' K-Pop agencies, SM brought members from acts dating back to 2003 as a part of their well-known SMTown Live concert series. This year marked the agency's 30th anniversary. It's been 13 years since the last SMTown Live in California, which took place in Anaheim. More from The Hollywood Reporter Bono Weighs in on Trump-Bruce Springsteen Drama: "There's Only One Boss in America" Sean "Diddy" Combs' Assistant of 8 Years Accuses Him of Multiple Sexual Assaults During Testimony Sean "Diddy" Combs' Ex-Assistant Testifies He Sexually Assaulted Her and Used Violence to Get His Way It was an all-day affair for fans who opted to purchase the red-carpet ticket, which gave them a chance to see their idols relatively close and kicked off before 1 p.m. Some performers stopped by the barricade of fans to snap selfies or say a quick hello. Several groups teased new music and exciting performances. TVXQ, Super Junior, SHINee's Key and Minho, EXO's Suho, Chanyeol and Kai, Red Velvet, NCT 127, NCT Dream, WayV, aespa, Riize, Hearts2Hearts and SMTR25 all performed; NCT Wish was slated to perform but was unable to attend due to visa issues. Girl group aespa seemingly teased their future plans at SMTown Live. 'We're about to release music very, very soon, so please stay tuned for that,' Winter told The Hollywood Reporter. The group described their performance of the night in one word: fire. The crowd went wild for the four-piece group, performing hits such as 'Whiplash' and 'Next Level.' 'It's our first time in L.A. for SMTown, and it's not every year that we can come here as a whole SMTown family,' Riize's Anton said before the concert. The group recently released their first album, Odyssey, which they previewed for fans during the L.A. show. 'It's a really special opportunity,' Anton continued. TVXQ, the eldest of the crop of performers, told THR that fans could expect to hear the duo's older songs, a promise they delivered on when they sang their 2008 K-Pop classic 'Mirotic.' The undeniably catchy track had the entire stadium singing along. 'We just want this performance to be a place where we can show a lot of synergy between the senior and the junior groups,' member Changmin told THR. Other groups like girl group Red Velvet decided to play older fan favorites. The three members who performed during the show surprised the audience with their 2018 song 'Bad Boy.' The group told THR they included it as a special treat. It was Red Velvet's first performance in L.A. in years, so they said they knew fans were 'going to love it.' On the other end of the spectrum was SM's latest endeavor, girl group Hearts2Hearts, who were fresh off a Saturday performance at Wango Tango. The eight-member outfit expressed how excited they were to be in L.A. for the first time. Stella, a vocalist, said the group was particularly looking forward to the show's final song, 'Hope from Kwangya,' where all of the night's performers come together to sing farewell. To perform that final song, all artists flocked to the stage and later waved goodbye to fans all together. SM Entertainment's next SMTown Live is set for June 28 in London. Another in Japan is scheduled for August.

Malaysia emerges as strategic real estate hub amid global trade shifts
KUALA LUMPUR: As global trade tensions escalate and tariff policies grow more volatile, multinational corporations (MNCs) are recalibrating their real estate strategies—placing Malaysia in a strong position as a preferred investment destination, according to Knight Frank. In its latest regional report, From Whiplash to Resilience: Corporate Real Estate in the New World Order, Knight Frank highlights that sweeping tariffs—some as high as 124.1 per cent on Chinese imports during the Trump administration—have disrupted trade with over 57 countries. As a result, MNCs are moving away from speculative expansion and instead prioritising operational resilience, seeking locations that offer clarity, agility, and fit-for-purpose real estate solutions. Malaysia is emerging as a standout choice, with the report noting its appeal for cost-efficient, adaptable, and future-ready industrial property offerings. While regional peers such as Vietnam and India remain attractive for their scale, Knight Frank underscores Malaysia's strategic flexibility as a key differentiator in today's fragmented global trade landscape. "In today's fragmented trade landscape, Malaysia is proving attractive not because of bold moves but because of its ability to offer reliable, purpose-built industrial solutions that align with the operational demands of modern businesses," said Keith Ooi, group managing director, Knight Frank Malaysia. Knight Frank's research points to a significant uptick in Chinese investment into Malaysia's manufacturing sector, with inflows jumping from RM3.85 billion in 2017 to RM19.67 billion in 2018. This growth is being fuelled by manufacturers seeking supply chain diversification and a hedge against rising costs elsewhere. This trend, recently revitalised by high-level diplomatic engagements such as President Xi Jinping's state visit, reflects growing demand for build-to-suit facilities offering shorter leases, cost transparency, and customisable fit-outs, attributes increasingly sought in the post-pandemic era. Christine Li, head of research for Asia-Pacific at Knight Frank, added, "Malaysia's real estate market has quietly adapted." "We're seeing a shift from rigid 5-year lease terms to more agile, modular structures, especially in suburban industrial zones. These changes cater to SMEs and MNCs alike who are navigating unpredictable tariff regimes." The report stated that government support is also bolstering investor sentiment. Initiatives like the Johor–Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS-SEZ) aim to boost cross-border SME collaboration and enhance logistics, reinforcing Malaysia's positioning as a strategic—not secondary—player in regional economic realignment. While the global outlook remains cautious, Knight Frank sees Malaysia as offering "mixed but promising" potential, thanks to its strong fundamentals, policy clarity, and ability to adapt to shifting regional demand. "Malaysia may not be the loudest player in the room, but its flexibility, policy clarity, and infrastructure readiness are increasingly winning over global occupiers looking for long-term viability, not just short-term arbitrage," said Tim Armstrong, Global Head of Occupier Strategy and Solutions, Knight Frank. As global supply chains decentralise, Malaysia's ability to deliver future-fit, agile real estate solutions may well become its most valuable competitive advantage.
