In Malaysia, we all know that living in a diverse and multi-cultural country, we can expect to have many celebrations and holidays with one another.
Fun fact, did you know that we are one of the few countries in the world with the most Public Holidays? In 2023, it&rsquo;s said that Malaysia will have a total of 15 Federal Public Holidays. As for the total number of public holidays we have in the country, in 2022, we had a total of 69 days of holiday and this is due to different states having their own holidays as well.

As we are nearing the Lunar New year, we can see that many malls and even some streets are already decorated in traditional Chinese decorations. The one thing many look forward to is the to see the popular lion dance performances whether it is at a mall or perhaps at an open house!

The Lion Dance has been done for generations and it&rsquo;s never failed to bring a smile to the faces of the audience. The Lion Dance also symbolizes a sign of good luck and helps drive away evil spirits. Some also believe that when the lion bites the head of a person, it will bring them good luck too!
For those performing the dance, it certainly takes quite some skill as it shows a combination of acrobatic movement and choreography. Many of these dancers train for years to perfect the act and recently a local duo had just won the hearts of Malaysians not just for their performance but for displaying unity and harmony through their performance.

TikTok user Ah Peng (@ahpeng2830) posted a video showing a Lion Dance performance at an event. What made the video gain up to 2.3 million views and 117.3K Likes at the time of writing this was that the performance was performed by a Malay Muslim girl in a hijab. The performance by the duo was certainly mesmerising to many and many on TikTok had also commented how they enjoyed the diversity of the performance.
Here's some of the comments:

So, Who Are The Performers?
A day after the video was posted, Ah Peng posted another <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@ahpeng2830/video/7189494633913732379">follow-up video</a> with articles about the Malay girls behind the Lion Dance. One thing to note is that the TikToker could not verify the specific girls, however, their lion costume did match the video and it&rsquo;s said that the performance is by 6 Malay siblings who joined a Chinese Cultural and Sports Association in Penang.
Presuming it is by the group, the lion dance is led by 16-year-old Siti Aishah Mohd Farulnizam accompanied by her siblings Mohd Faiz, 15; Mohamad Fahmi, 12; Siti Alya, 8, and Siti Aleesa, 6.
Lately, multicultural Lion Dance performances have been getting common. Another video was posted on Facebook showing a performance at Puchong which saw Chinese, Malays and Indians all together to perform the Lion Dance.

M’sians Praise Malay Girl For Her Outstanding Lion Dance Performance!

For some of us adventure seekers, climbing a mountain is certainly something that we&rsquo;d put on our bucket list as it&rsquo;s not often you get to have the feeling of being on top of the world.
If you&rsquo;re in Malaysia, one of the stepping stones to climbing mountains is to reach the peak of Mount Kinabalu in Sabah as it&rsquo;s the tallest mountain in Malaysia. In the past, we&rsquo;ve also seen some pretty interesting stories of people climbing Mount Kinabalu, from wearing an Iron Man suit to even a FoodPanda rider at its peak.
Read: <a href="https://myc.my/articles/1477/man-climbs-mt-kinabalu-in-an-iron-man-suit-to-raise-awareness-on-dmd">Man Climbs Mt Kinabalu In An Iron Man Suit To Raise Awareness On DMD</a> Read: <a href="https://myc.my/articles/2258/foodpanda-rider-spotted-delivering-food-at-the-top-of-mount-kinabalu">FoodPanda Rider Spotted &lsquo;Delivering Food&rsquo; At The Top Of Mount Kinabalu</a>
Japanese Man Climbs Mount Kinabalu In A Suit

If you thought you&rsquo;ve seen it all, oh how wrong you are. Recently, a Japanese man had scaled to the top of the mountain in a three-piece suit! The man, identified as Nobutaka Sada is a tailor who markets his brand &ldquo;Sada&rdquo; on a whole new level as he tends to find himself in unusual circumstances and unexpected locations.
Recently, one of the mountain porters had bumped into Sada while he was making his way up the mountain with a briefcase and rocking a pair of brown Asics leather business shoes. The porter asked Sada where he was from and Sada&rsquo;s reply was priceless.
&ldquo;I&rsquo;m from Japan. I have a business meeting at the peak of Mount Kinabalu,&rdquo; he said.

After Sada left, the porter continued on to make his way to the top and ran into Sada again at the Raban Lata halfway point and the peak of the mountain where Sada was posing for photos at the top. Once Sada was done with his &ldquo;business meeting&rdquo; the porter approached Sada again and he said he&rsquo;ll be going for a jog now. Just as the porter wished him congratulations, Sada had made his way down the mountain.

Sada Shares His Experience On Facebook
After this adventure to the top, Sada shared his experience of his journey to the top of the mountain on Facebook.
<iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fnobutaka.sada.5%2Fposts%2Fpfbid02croryFR4KQuuXpbrKT2jbFXwcRY1X2my1D86vy8gBaVBxKGUDZxCnFi7kHHvEAFyl&amp;show_text=true&amp;width=500" width="500" height="811" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
&ldquo;In SADA&rsquo;s custom suit, I successfully climbed the highest peak in Borneo, Mount Kinabalu in Malaysia! It&rsquo;s higher than Mount Fuji, standing at 4,095 meters above sea level! I even stayed overnight in a hut halfway up the mountain and climbed the steep slope to see the sunrise at the summit, illuminated by the stars. Despite the tropical humidity and rain that we encountered during the climb, SADA's custom suit maintained a level of professionalism suitable for business meetings. SADA's custom suit can withstand even climbing Mount Kinabalu!&rdquo; he said.
Initially, he did not know that the TikTok video from the porter had gained quite a lot of attention and as he was leaving the airport, someone at the immigration counter asked if he climbed the mountain in the suit he was wearing. At first, he was puzzled and later found out that the person found that he had gone viral on TikTok.
Netizens Amazed At Sada
At the time of writing this article, the video of Sada stating that he had finished his business meeting at the top of the mountain had gained 141.3K views, &nbsp;13.5K likes and 560 comments on TikTok. Meanwhile, on Twitter, two posts about Sada&rsquo;s climb had gone viral with 2.9K and 2.5K retweets respectively.

Japanese Man Climbs Up Mount Kinabalu In A Full Suit!

If you were to ask any gamer no matter old or young, they&rsquo;ll likely say that they have heard of or have played the game Counter-Strike. The game has become an icon in the competitive Esports and gaming scene as it has a long legacy after being around for 20 years.
Over the years, we&rsquo;ve seen different variations of the game from Counter-Strike 1.6 (2003), Counter-Strike: Condition Zero (2004), Counter-Strike: Source and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (2012).
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/7b377a94a2513932f87ece9ca3ca9bd4ef6be9751c77f447f25926e3132703c4" />
Many amazing memories were shared between the series of games by many from casual players to even a bunch of iconic moments created in the Esports scene, especially during the Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO) era that lasted for 11 years.
Valve Announces A New Counter-Strike
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/ee1e4b07d8af3277823675497bb98c7f9676bb48c06644262c53e2dd743f674b" />
Out of nowhere around 12am local time, Valve suddenly confirmed their latest game, Counter-Strike 2 (CS2) and it literally broke the internet in the gaming scene. For years now, the game has been highly anticipating an update to its old and outdated Source Engine but after numerous rumours, it was all shut down and fans were left disappointed until last night.
On their official Twitter page, the developers announced that they are running a limited test for CS2 which is described as a complete overhaul of every system, content and part of the game experience.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Counter-Strike 2.
&mdash; CS2 (@CounterStrike) <a href="https://twitter.com/CounterStrike/status/1638582094640328705?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 22, 2023</a></blockquote>
Let&rsquo;s Check Out What&rsquo;s New About The Game
Valve has specifically spotlighted 3 key sections of the game's upgrades in their post which include an overhaul to its core mechanics in hopes of delivering a better gaming experience to its existing and potentially upcoming players. The game also revamped the UI enhancements and even reworked its audio.
1) Responsive Smoke Grenades
<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/_y9MpNcAitQ" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
First off, we have the new dynamic smoke update. In the previous game due to the limitations of the engine, each player will see different variations of the smoke and it is not consistent, it just stood there as it is till it slowly fades away.
In the latest engine, all of these changes allow the smoke to react with the environment around the maps. From lighting, growing to fill spaces and the biggest thing to it is that the shape and cloud of the smoke can now be pushed and react with bullets flying through and grenades exploding within them.
2) Visual Upgrades
<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ExZtISgOxEQ" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
The next upgrade is all the maps that we know and love will now be getting a visual upgrade while still retaining all the strategies and lineups that can be done from the old engine. Valve has divided these into three different categories:
i) Touchstone
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/b07c1805a0e1ce03b5d8d4a66f3e9e4e8696745c64a5b85a33bf9fd61bab3db3" />
These upgrades are done to classic maps which have solid foundations to show the massive changes between the old engine visuals and the new one. They improved the lighting and character read of the maps without needing to change the original look of the map. 
ii) Upgrades
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/35a5052e299f52040f431edf90717a624880711593e98b577aaffa2368bd0c35" />
These are maps that utilize the new lighting in the latest Source 2 engine which has a physically based rendering system to produce realistic lighting, materials and reflections. 
iii) Overhauls
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/6e3d37d0aaad5a27e6729fddaebfe93bc3871c2fcaa4fe89a1172b5925745792" />
For those who love playing on the classic maps available in previous iterations of the game, they have all been fully rebuilt from the ground up which utilizes the maximum potential of the Source 2 engine. The best part of the update is that if you&rsquo;re a community map builder, it will be available for use as it eases the map-building process and experimenting if the design or lighting applied to it works or flops.
3) Tick Rate
<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/GqhhFl5zgA0" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
Lastly would be the #1 most debated topic of the CS scene and that is Tick Rate. To sum it up, Tick Rate is a unit of how data is received and sent from the client to the server and back. The old engine had utilized 64 tick which felt mushy and sometimes we see ourselves missing our shots but in Source 2, it will finally be standardized at 128 tick to give the smoothest and most accurate reaction possible.
Much More To Come
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/33dc1f7aab9bfdbf6c214477487df9ad99b944f2da43ae56375f50223a1c9a10" /> Image via <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalOffensive/comments/11z2cky/csgo_skins_vs_cs2_v20_max_settings_in_4k/">Reddit</a>
If you&rsquo;re worried about your in-game skins (cosmetics), don&rsquo;t worry as they will all be ported over to the new game and they will be looking much better and cleaner.
For now, the game is only available in a limited test phase and only a handful of players have access to it. The only way to play the game is if Valve selects your account to receive the feature based on but not limited to their recent playtime on Valve official servers, trust factor and Steam account standing.
The full range of new features for the game will be announced at the launch in the Summer of 2023.
So far since the announcement last night, it&rsquo;s been the talk of social media and many players are now wanting to return to the game after moving on to the other hit free-to-play FPS shooter, Valorant which was released in 2020.
Are you excited about the latest updates being introduced into the game? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!

Aside from the excitement of the Holy Month of Ramadan, this also means that we are inching close to the Hari Raya Aidilfitri where it&rsquo;s a time for families to reunite and celebrate together with good food.

Malaysian Recreates Hari Raya In Sims 4
Now, while we wait for Hari Raya, TikTok user <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@aefleurr">@aefleurr</a> shared the joy and nostalgia of returning back to your hometown for the holidays. She recently started trending on social media as she showcased how a Malay family gets ready for Hari Raya on the popular simulation game, Sims 4.
<video style="width: 586px; height: 293px;" controls="controls" width="586" height="293">

On her account, she shared a variety of unique scenes of Hari Raya in Malaysia that only ever happens when we head back to our kampungs. Many of the clips shared authentic and rustic scenes from the early hours of the day at the start of Hari Raya to even the reality of the food coma kicking in after having too much food.
Let&rsquo;s check out some of the amazing attention to detail that was seen in the videos.
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/68bf156b2cfa1d99c7ddef86a9ce50ab490dc4e4c2dc37444fd37e4989f056e5" />
First off, we have the dishes such as kuih-muih, murtabak, satay, rendang and not to forget the must-have Sunquick orange juice.

One of the most impressive things about the Sims game is that it has almost endless customization available to the community. One of the scenes showed a family portrait where they had all rocked the traditional Baju Melayu and Baju Kurung. The most impressive bit here is how detailed the patterns of the samping, songket and tudungs were.
Here are some other clips:

M’sian Accurately Portrays Hari Raya Celebrations Using The Sims 4!

If you're someone who frequents the cinemas to indulge in a larger-than-life movie experience, chances are you're familiar with the name Jeremy Renner. And if not by name, you'll definitely recognize him as his on-screen alter-ego, Hawkeye, from Marvel's Avengers franchise.
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/99e1b96aa40d820ead9a90b1da36798e24966a3a2bcba0b6990a5449387b77bf" />
In early January, news broke out that the 52-year-old had been involved in a horrific snow plow accident resulting in over 30 broken bones. Since the incident, the actor has been focusing on his recovery, leaving many fans wondering if he&rsquo;ll ever make a comeback to the big screens again.
Amidst the uncertainty surrounding his future in Hollywood, rumours began to circulate among fans stating that his upcoming projects in Hollywood could potentially mean his last works.
Hinting About Retirement
It was revealed by a close source that Renner allegedly expressed that acting is not his top priority anymore, following the accident. Despite his love for the craft, Hollywood is no longer his main focus, according to the insider.
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/2b458cf6a09905d742ba8a13d3be1ded26d617bfeb1a91cffb0ad3695465a0cc" />
After the near-fatal incident, Renner moved from his Lake Tahoe home to Los Angeles to focus on his recovery. Unfortunately, the injuries he sustained have left him unable to walk. But with each passing day, his progress in rehabilitation is steady, and he's determined to walk again, as shared by his mother who frequently visits him and his daughter Ava on weekends.
Despite breaking the 30-plus bones in his body, Renner said that the bones will mend and grow stronger just like the love and bond with family and friends deepen.
Recently, Renner tweeted about the finale of the second season of Mayor of Kingstown, which some fans initially thought was just a mundane post. However, others speculated that it might have hinted at his retirement announcement.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
Finale season 2 <a href="https://twitter.com/paramountplus?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@paramountplus</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/kingstown?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@kingstown</a> <a href="https://t.co/I0kon65wh1">pic.twitter.com/I0kon65wh1</a>
&mdash; Jeremy Renner (@JeremyRenner) <a href="https://twitter.com/JeremyRenner/status/1637087661239447554?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">March 18, 2023</a></blockquote>

<script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

If the show were to feature a 3rd season, there&rsquo;s still no say if Renner would be fit enough to act and chances are either the show may retire his character or perhaps even replace his character with a new actor.
Time To Watch His Last Few Projects 
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/201e460a6732f1c5d05a9997a4f27f8d694da9f7183c5aaed7df1289e7ddfd83" />
While the rumours of him leaving Hollywood flood social media, we should forget that Renner will be starring in the upcoming series called &lsquo;Rennervations&rsquo; which is a four-partner show which will be streamed on Disney+.
&ldquo;I&rsquo;ve been on this journey for many years, and I started in my community by building vehicles for people in need. But a few years ago, I thought, how can I plus this up and create a bigger impact on a whole community &ndash; and that&rsquo;s what this show does. This is one of my biggest passions and it&rsquo;s a driving force in my recovery, and I can&rsquo;t wait for the world to see it,&rdquo; said Renner.
Renner also confirmed that the series had been shot before the accident and it&rsquo;s one of his projects that helps motivate him to get back to his normal self. The series will be available to watch on Disney+ from 12 April 2023.
Watch The Trailer Here:

Hopefully, the road to recovery for Renner will be smooth and although he says he&rsquo;s done with Hollywood, we can always keep our hopes up of seeing him on the big screens. Maybe we won&rsquo;t see him in blockbuster films such as Avengers again but perhaps a role that&rsquo;s a little bit more &ldquo;chill and relaxed&rdquo; compared to what we usually see.
Do you think this will mark the end of Renner&rsquo;s career cause we don&rsquo;t think so. What are your thoughts? Let us know in the comments.

Did Renner just hint his retirement on social media?

Jeremy Renner’s Future In Hollywood In Doubts After Snow Plow Accident

Being an athlete is hands down one of the most stressful things in the world. From the pressure of constantly wanting to perform at your level best to having the eyes of the country on you when you attend all your tournaments.
It&rsquo;s true, the mental stress can definitely get to you and your performance can never always be at its peak and you&rsquo;ll sometimes need to have some downtime to gather yourself again.
Lately, our national shuttler Lee Zii Jia has made it to the spotlight for both the good and the bad. For the good, he was recently featured on New York City&rsquo;s iconic Time Square Billboard and when we say bad, we only mean that he has an ongoing lawsuit with former coach, Indra Wijaya.

Aside from the lawsuit, Zii Jia has lately been experiencing a lot of negativity in his life and it&rsquo;s mainly due to his performance in tournaments. Ever since he parted ways with Wijaya and quit Badminton Association Malaysia (BAM) to become an independent shuttler, he hasn&rsquo;t been showing the best results out there.
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/db7a3f9d582eddefbb5f029b43b158df1677945cc23b0c5d2eee719cefcf57b1" />
Just about a week ago, he posted on his Instagram story stating &ldquo;I&rsquo;m f***ing done&rdquo; after his early exit from the German Open.
Light At The End Of A Tunnel
Everyone has their bad days and it&rsquo;s true, sometimes we never know when we can bounce back to the top again. Recently, Zii Jia shared a story on his Instagram thanking Darence Chan for the heartwarming letter admitting all the negativity he&rsquo;s been facing.
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/f41180468f920ac42dd1b18c27f5844a0a7c09f8a2f08088fefd38a1a401ad74" />
Darance who is a YouTuber <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@AllAboutDarence">@AllAboutDarence</a> with about 10K subscribers loves creating badminton-related content and he also frequently hosts watch-along with other badminton fans out there on his channel.
He recently sent a letter to the World No. #4 player oh how he reminisced the semi-finals of the Indonesian Open between World No #1, Viktor Axelsen from Denmark and Zii Jia and says it was an intense match. The match was also one of many matches which made Malaysians, including Darance himself, very proud of Zii Jia&rsquo;s performance, he said in the letter.
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/1578af0695c3c138a80331460ada2f1c97c2f7ca09d26c3ac6d2c97fb4e19d1a" />
Darance explained that he is currently studying in Manchester and dreams of becoming a badminton journalist one day. He shared that the &ldquo;typical Malaysian journalist&rdquo; is very negative and Darance aims to convert the content to show the more positive side of the story which is normally set aside by the media.
Thought He Was Hacked
As Zii Jia posted the story on his Instagram, Darance initially thought that his phone was hacked when he saw the notification of Zii Jia tagging him.

&nbsp;
Despite being defeated during the Semi-Finals by Shi Yuqi at the All-England tournament in Birmingham, he stated that he&rsquo;s in a much better place than he was in the past few months.
&ldquo;Previously, there was a period that was quite stressful for me, and even at one point when I felt that I had fallen out of love with badminton. Whenever I step into the arena or court, I would be frowning and not feeling good with myself. So, I&rsquo;m really happy to regain this love for badminton here,&rdquo; he said.
Head up champ, soon enough you&rsquo;ll get that victory again. Malaysia has got your full support and we can&rsquo;t wait to see you on the top again!
