Taking a look at her order, Erynn had got herself the Cheese Matcha Croffle, Salted Caramel Croffle (RM10.90) and the Cinnamon Sugar Spice Croffle (RM7.90).

With a bunch of unique flavours, there&rsquo;s something available for anyone! One of Erynn&rsquo;s personal favourites was the Cheese Matcha Croffle which had a unique flavour combination. The matcha flavour wasn&rsquo;t too strong and it blended well with the cheese.&nbsp;
The packaging of the items was also unique and it kept all the toppings in place. But the most irresistible thing about the place is the smell of freshly made Croffle.

Malaysians have been left stunned by the tragic murder of 20-year-old university student Maniishapriet Kaur Akhara, who was found dead in her student apartment in Cyberjaya on 24 June. Fresh details from police investigations have now confirmed that the main suspect is the boyfriend of one of her housemates&mdash;who had handed him the access card and keys to the unit prior to the killing.
Maniishapriet, a Bachelor of Physiotherapy student originally from Kuching, Sarawak, was staying alone in the unit at Mutiara Ville after her housemates had left for the semester break. She had remained behind to prepare for an upcoming examination. Her body was discovered around 10am by a concerned friend, who immediately contacted police. She was found unconscious with clear head injuries, and a post-mortem confirmed the cause of death as blunt force trauma to the head.
Access Through Trust: Girlfriend Gave Suspect Entry
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/91e5c870c2a5f368f940904db0a09e04073348e504be968abaf168be610871ae" />
Selangor Police Chief Commissioner Datuk Hussein Omar Khan told reporters on 1 July that preliminary investigations revealed how the suspect gained access to the residence without force. The housemate&mdash;one of the three female suspects now in custody&mdash;had previously allowed her boyfriend to stay over in the unit, and handed him the access card and keys once again before returning to her hometown.
"The main suspect had stayed at the unit before. On the night of the incident, he was given the card and keys again, while his girlfriend had already gone home. He stayed overnight and unfortunately harboured ill intentions toward the victim," said Commissioner Hussein.
Investigators believe that the suspect, now remanded, assaulted Maniishapriet using a blunt object, striking her fatally. There were no signs of forced entry into the apartment, indicating that the suspect&rsquo;s presence there appeared authorised at the time.
While police do not currently believe the crime was premeditated, they are probing whether the housemate had any knowledge of her boyfriend&rsquo;s potential motives or behaviour. &ldquo;We are still investigating whether she was aware of what he intended to do,&rdquo; added Hussein.
Theft, Rumours of Rape, and a Fifth Individual
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/7425cf7450a376369914c3c4036fd6590da0b8cc622ab44a64e890a204e44dcb" />
After allegedly killing Maniishapriet, the suspect is believed to have taken several of her personal belongings, including her laptop, mobile phone, ATM card, and cash. Police confirmed that RM200 was withdrawn using her card not long after the incident. They suspect that one of the arrested female individuals may have assisted in making the withdrawal.
Authorities also revealed the involvement of a fifth person&mdash;someone who allegedly received the victim&rsquo;s belongings from the main suspect after the murder. This individual is currently detained in relation to another separate case, but police are in the process of recording a formal statement from him. At present, he is not believed to have played a role in the murder itself.
In the days following the murder, speculation on social media raised the possibility of sexual assault. However, Commissioner Hussein addressed the rumours directly, stating that the post-mortem found no evidence of rape. &ldquo;Based on the pathology report, there are no signs of sexual assault. However, we are not ruling out anything and further investigations are ongoing to confirm or disprove any such claims,&rdquo; he said.
Arrests, CCTV Evidence and the Path Toward Prosecution
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/980d57a60943612f61f1d5e93218eb927941a7088cf861a57a2f2ac0fe9c03e3" />
So far, four individuals have been arrested in connection with the case&mdash;three women and one man, all aged between 19 and 20. They were apprehended in swift police operations conducted in Johor Bahru and Gemencheh, Negeri Sembilan on 26 and 27 June, just 48 hours after the initial police report was filed.
The remand orders for all suspects have been extended beyond the initial 3 July deadline as investigations intensify. Police are also analysing CCTV footage from surrounding areas in Cyberjaya to reconstruct the timeline of events. The apartment unit itself did not have internal surveillance, but officers are confident that external footage will help support the case.
Commissioner Hussein confirmed that police are working to complete the investigation papers, which will soon be forwarded to the Deputy Public Prosecutor. The case is being investigated under Section 302 of the Penal Code for murder, which carries the death penalty or life imprisonment upon conviction.
The murder of Maniishapriet Kaur has sparked widespread concern and conversation about safety in student housing, especially for those staying alone during the holidays. The betrayal of trust&mdash;facilitated by someone within the victim&rsquo;s own circle&mdash;has only deepened the public&rsquo;s unease.
As investigations continue, the tragedy serves as a sobering reminder that danger can emerge even in familiar places, and that vigilance must extend beyond locked doors. The country now watches closely as the legal process unfolds and justice is sought for Maniishapriet&rsquo;s untimely and senseless death.

Cyberjaya Student Murder: Housemate’s Boyfriend Accused Of Killing 20-Year-Old Maniishapriet Kaur

In an unexpected legal defeat, Italian luxury car manufacturer Ferrari SpA has lost a trademark lawsuit against Malaysian beverage company Sunrise-Mark Sdn Bhd. The dispute centred on claims that the local firm&rsquo;s Wee Power logo, featuring two rearing horses, was too similar to Ferrari&rsquo;s world-famous &lsquo;Prancing Horse&rsquo; trademark.
The Legal Challenge Over Horses
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/90c45b4ba18b1f8ce77e4a6302e0fd0f94bcd95687c9aacf4584b5e4e53c8791" />
Ferrari initiated legal action through an originating summons in an attempt to overturn a 2024 decision by the Registrar of Trademarks. That decision had dismissed Ferrari&rsquo;s opposition to Sunrise-Mark&rsquo;s application, allowing the Wee Power mark to proceed towards registration.
The automaker argued that Sunrise-Mark&rsquo;s use of horses, specifically two rearing horses facing each other, could cause confusion among consumers, infringing on Ferrari&rsquo;s exclusive rights to its iconic single rearing horse symbol, famously seen on its sports cars, merchandise, and global marketing campaigns.
Ferrari also attempted to downplay the significance of the words &ldquo;Wee Power&rdquo; in the branding, asserting that the term &ldquo;Power&rdquo; had been disclaimed in the trademark filing, while &ldquo;Wee&rdquo; was allegedly too generic to carry any unique distinction.
Judge: Not All Horses Are Equal
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/143312a887ba19bd673e9700b00cd5b54c3a37103202c568839d51374f45f85e" />
However, the Malaysian High Court saw things differently. On 30 May, Judge Adlin Abdul Majid dismissed Ferrari&rsquo;s claims, finding that the similarities between the two trademarks were minimal at best.
&ldquo;The plaintiff&rsquo;s [Ferrari&rsquo;s] logo contains a single rearing horse, while the defendant&rsquo;s [Sunrise-Mark&rsquo;s] logo features two rearing horses positioned opposite each other,&rdquo; she said. &ldquo;In addition, there is a prominent letter &lsquo;W&rsquo; between the horses&rsquo; heads and the words &lsquo;Wee Power&rsquo; below them. It is a very different composition.&rdquo;
Judge Adlin accepted Sunrise-Mark&rsquo;s argument that &ldquo;Wee&rdquo; was a reference to the founder&rsquo;s name, Wee Juan Chien, rather than a nod to the English definition of the word. She remarked that it was improbable any brand would aim to market an energy drink suggesting &ldquo;very small power&rdquo;.
Different Industries, Different Consumers
Central to the court&rsquo;s decision was the fact that Ferrari and Sunrise-Mark operate in completely unrelated industries. The judge noted that Ferrari is entrenched in the luxury automotive sector, while Sunrise-Mark&rsquo;s business lies in the realm of consumable goods.
&ldquo;These are not competing markets, and it is highly unlikely that the plaintiff&rsquo;s customer base would overlap with the defendant&rsquo;s,&rdquo; she said. &ldquo;There is no reasonable likelihood that a consumer purchasing an energy drink would assume a connection with Ferrari&rsquo;s vehicles.&rdquo;
Judge Adlin firmly rejected the notion that the average Malaysian consumer would mistake the Wee Power logo for anything associated with Ferrari, regardless of the presence of horses in both designs.
Sunrise-Mark Free to Proceed With Trademark
<img src="https://media.tenor.com/hG84QGeAAvMAAAAM/mc-gregor-pay-up.gif" />
With Ferrari&rsquo;s lawsuit dismissed, Sunrise-Mark is now free to register and use its Wee Power trademark without legal hindrance. In addition to losing the case, Ferrari was ordered by the court to bear the legal costs.
Representing Ferrari were counsels PC Kok and Ng Pau Chze. Sunrise-Mark was represented by lawyers YY Ho and Amirah Najihah Ameruddin.
Ferrari&rsquo;s History of Aggressive Brand Protection
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/66cda4960af950aaeef270c41e9ff3f6ae3054ff0b27be1d7c5a6eadc80f2456" />
This case is just the latest example of Ferrari&rsquo;s fiercely protective stance over its brand image. The automaker has a long history of enforcing strict rules over how its logo and vehicles are used, extending even to celebrities.
In the past, Ferrari reportedly blacklisted pop star Justin Bieber after he modified one of their cars and failed to follow brand etiquette. Likewise, Canadian DJ Deadmau5 was served legal warnings over his custom-painted &ldquo;Purrari&rdquo;, a Ferrari 458 decorated with a Nyan Cat theme. The car was eventually stripped of its modifications after pressure from the company.
While Ferrari&rsquo;s desire to protect its identity is understandable, this Malaysian court ruling suggests that even powerful global brands must accept reasonable limits when it comes to trademark control, especially when dealing with fundamentally different industries.

Ferrari Loses Trademark Lawsuit To Malaysian Energy Drink Brand

K-pop royalty Super Junior is set to make a grand return to Malaysia in 2026 as part of their global Super Show 10 tour, marking their 20th anniversary in the music industry. The veteran boy band will perform live in Kuala Lumpur on 17 January 2026, at the Axiata Arena, much to the delight of their long-standing Malaysian fanbase.
The concert is part of a wider world tour that will see the group performing in 15 cities across Asia, the Americas, and Japan. This celebratory run also coincides with the release of their highly anticipated 12th studio album, scheduled to drop on 12 July 2025&mdash;their first full album in nearly three years.
The Kings of the Hallyu Wave Who Never Miss a Beat
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/ec2bf76dd11ed38bba1d97473b16f5d20d4229034715b300881276163d1da800" />
Debuting in 2005 under SM Entertainment, Super Junior stands as one of the most iconic and influential boy groups in K-pop history. Pioneers of the Hallyu Wave, the group&rsquo;s blend of talent, charisma, and longevity has left a lasting mark on the global music scene.
Originally debuting with twelve members and later expanding to thirteen with Kyuhyun, the current active lineup includes Leeteuk, Heechul, Yesung, Shindong, Eunhyuk, Siwon, Donghae, Ryeowook, and Kyuhyun. Former members Han Geng, Kibum, and Kangin departed between 2011 and 2019, while Sungmin officially stepped away from group activities in 2025.

Super Junior achieved a major breakthrough with their 2009 smash hit &ldquo;Sorry, Sorry&rdquo;, a track that not only swept domestic charts but also ignited a global frenzy, helping to propel K-pop into the international spotlight. Other signature hits such as &ldquo;Bonamana,&rdquo; &ldquo;Mr. Simple,&rdquo; &ldquo;No Other,&rdquo; and &ldquo;Sexy, Free &amp; Single&rdquo; further cemented their status as trailblazers of the genre.
The group&rsquo;s accolades speak volumes: 13 Mnet Asian Music Awards, 19 Golden Disc Awards, and even a Teen Choice Award for International Artist. Their live shows, known as &ldquo;Super Show&rdquo; tours, have attracted millions of fans across the globe, with Malaysia remaining a key stop throughout the years. Most recently, they performed at Kuala Lumpur&rsquo;s Axiata Arena in August 2024 as part of their Super Show Spin-off: Halftime tour.
After nearly two decades, Super Junior remains not only a household name but also a symbol of reinvention and consistency in the ever-evolving K-pop industry.

The Super Show 10 tour is not just a milestone celebration&mdash;it&rsquo;s a tribute to the evolution of a group that has stayed relevant in the ever-changing K-pop landscape.

Super Junior To Celebrate 20th Anniversary With ‘Super Show 10’ In KL!

What began as an ordinary morning on Monday (30 June), quickly spiralled into a large-scale security and traffic operation near the Menora Tunnel in Perak. At approximately 9.30am, a highway maintenance worker discovered a suspected explosive device while conducting routine landscaping work along Kilometre 265 of the North-South Expressway (PLUS), not far from Jelapang.
The maintenance supervisor, a 51-year-old man, was reportedly clearing vegetation when he noticed an object partially buried in the underbrush. Realising it resembled a military-grade explosive, he immediately informed the PLUS highway patrol unit, who then escalated the matter to the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM).
Confirmation of a Mortar Bomb

Upon inspection by bomb squad experts from the Perak Bomb Disposal Unit, it was confirmed that the object was indeed an old mortar bomb&mdash;likely a remnant from a past era, though its origins remain unclear. Such explosive ordnance, though rare, is occasionally uncovered in areas that may have seen military movement or exercises in previous decades.
Perak Police Chief Datuk Noor Hisam Nordin said the immediate response from both the police and PLUS personnel ensured the site was quickly secured and no civilians were put in harm&rsquo;s way.
&ldquo;Following the report, a team comprising personnel from the police, the highway patrol, and our bomb disposal unit was deployed for immediate assessment and containment. The situation was treated with utmost seriousness,&rdquo; he stated.
Controlled Detonation and Safety Radius
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/68ba92e61898cc7e19b7294e780090536635639b41cdaa9b2b54bc5b8f529e15" />
The bomb squad took nearly an hour to carry out the neutralisation of the device. A controlled detonation was performed with strict safety protocols in place. Authorities set a blast radius of up to 200 metres, clearing the surrounding area to ensure no lives or property were at risk during the procedure.
The successful disposal of the mortar shell prevented any casualties or damage, but not before significant disruption was caused along one of Malaysia&rsquo;s busiest highways.

PLUS Initiated Temporary Closure of Menora Tunnel Stretch
As a precautionary measure, PLUS Malaysia Berhad initiated a full closure of the Kuala Kangsar&ndash;Ipoh stretch of the North-South Expressway at 3.02pm. The move was essential to ensure the safety of road users while bomb disposal operations were underway.
Northbound traffic was diverted to the Ipoh Selatan Toll Plaza, while vehicles travelling south were redirected to the Kuala Kangsar Toll Plaza. The highway operator made the announcement via its official X (formerly Twitter) account, warning motorists of expected delays and advising them to use alternative routes where possible.
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/f0e46a17bb91cc2df35172abdee27f2c25da6acfdb64b184f5378d691817e4fc" />
The highway closure led to significant congestion along the affected stretch, particularly for southbound travellers. By mid-afternoon, traffic queues had grown to more than 15 kilometres, frustrating drivers and bringing traffic flow to a near standstill in certain sections.
Despite traffic management efforts and public advisories, thousands of motorists found themselves caught in the backlog. Authorities urged patience and caution, reminding road users to remain alert and follow all traffic diversion instructions for their own safety.
Gradual Reopening of Lanes
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/61b768f1c61d113a979e734308cb72a74cba8a619d04b85154fe8cb47398072b" />
After confirming that the area was safe and the explosive had been fully neutralised, PLUS began reopening the lanes in stages. Northbound lanes were the first to resume normal operations at 3.15pm, followed by full reopening of the southbound lanes by 3.44pm.
Perak police confirmed that the incident was handled without injury or damage and praised the efficient coordination between agencies that made the safe resolution possible.
Public Praise and Reassurance
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/66da0800b69d877a4306b68ff31faa59614bba00d2309ef65dcff4775ce42eca" />
The incident has drawn praise from members of the public, particularly for the quick thinking of the maintenance worker who initially reported the device, as well as the professionalism displayed by the authorities involved. Social media users commended the transparency of PLUS and the efficiency of the Royal Malaysia Police in handling what could have been a far more dangerous scenario.
Datuk Noor Hisam reiterated that public safety remains the top priority and reminded Malaysians to immediately report any suspicious objects to the authorities, rather than attempting to move or inspect them on their own.
Old Bombs, New Risks
This event is a reminder that even decades-old explosives can still pose significant threats. Malaysia, like many other countries with a history of military activity, occasionally sees the discovery of forgotten or buried ordnance. While most are inactive, bomb squads always operate on the assumption that any device could be live.
Authorities advise contractors, workers, and members of the public&mdash;particularly those involved in construction, agriculture, or landscaping&mdash;to be cautious and observant during field work.

The old mortar was safely neutralised — but the bigger concern remains: could there be more hidden in the area?

Menora Tunnel Bomb Scare: Mortar Shell Discovery Triggers Traffic Chaos And Bomb Squad Response

Few roles in cinema are as iconic&mdash;and as burdened with expectation&mdash;as James Bond. For decades, playing 007 has been considered the peak of an actor&rsquo;s career, a role that guarantees international fame. But it also comes with an immense amount of scrutiny, legacy pressure, and public expectation.
That&rsquo;s exactly why Henry Golding, the Malaysian-British star best known for Crazy Rich Asians, isn&rsquo;t too keen on the idea. Speaking candidly during the red carpet premiere of his latest film, The Old Guard 2, Golding addressed speculation that he&rsquo;s in the running to become the next Bond&mdash;a topic he admits has followed him since his breakout performance in 2018.
&ldquo;A Nightmare Every Actor Has&rdquo;
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/9c90017f537956eccb5545c3d02c12086cb020e34d859becd510e63be7f3b97d" />
&ldquo;I think that&rsquo;s every actor&rsquo;s kind of nightmare,&rdquo; said Golding when asked about possibly succeeding Daniel Craig as 007. &ldquo;You&rsquo;re not just stepping into a role&mdash;you&rsquo;re stepping into a franchise that&rsquo;s been around for over 60 years, with some of the biggest names in cinematic history behind it.&rdquo;
His comment might sound surprising coming from a leading man who has been praised for his charisma and suaveness, qualities typically associated with Bond. But Golding made it clear that it&rsquo;s the weight of the role&mdash;not the role itself&mdash;that gives him pause.
&ldquo;There&rsquo;s this massive legacy hanging over it. You&rsquo;re not just expected to be good; you&rsquo;re expected to reinvent the character, to live up to what came before, and to somehow keep millions of fans happy.&rdquo;
Cultural Pressure and Fan Scrutiny
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/648a5a5b544fbfc4c329ff7788b90b258902ed951b98e3beac8029c4be50f214" />
While many actors would leap at the opportunity, Golding is refreshingly honest about the cultural pressures that come with it. &ldquo;Maybe I&rsquo;m just a p****,&rdquo; he said with a laugh. &ldquo;But I think I would love it so much more if there wasn&rsquo;t that overhanging cultural pressure.&rdquo;
He isn&rsquo;t wrong. Each new Bond actor has faced intense fan scrutiny before even stepping into the role. When Daniel Craig was cast, many fans baulked at the idea of a blond-haired Bond&mdash;until Casino Royale proved the doubters wrong. And that level of criticism hasn&rsquo;t gone away.
Golding&rsquo;s concern is understandable: in the age of social media and rapid fan reactions, any misstep would be amplified globally.
An Expanded Universe of Agents?
Rather than see Bond as the only option, Golding floated the idea of broadening the franchise&rsquo;s scope. &ldquo;Why can&rsquo;t they bring out more agents or more double-0s? That would be so much more fun,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;There just aren&rsquo;t the same restraints and expectations.&rdquo;
It&rsquo;s an idea that has gained traction among fans and industry insiders alike. The Bond universe has long hinted at a wider world of agents&mdash;after all, James is 007, not 001. Golding&rsquo;s suggestion could breathe new life into the franchise while offering actors greater creative freedom.
A Franchise Slowly Opening Up
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/b4d57c92d03bc0f8a7cc387d7f5c214a1d527565b281c8bceadd00c9f9678bf7" />
Born in Malaysia and raised in the UK, Golding has also weighed in on the long-running conversation about diversity in the Bond franchise. &ldquo;Isn&rsquo;t it great that we&rsquo;re even having this conversation now?&rdquo; he told Attitude magazine in an earlier interview.
&ldquo;Why not a Black Bond, an Asian Bond, a mixed-race Bond, or a non-distinct Bond? We&rsquo;re at that point where we should stop asking &lsquo;if&rsquo; and start asking &lsquo;when&rsquo;.&rdquo;
Yet he was also pragmatic about the realities. &ldquo;The world might not be ready just yet,&rdquo; he admitted. &ldquo;I mean, I&rsquo;m Asian, and everyone&rsquo;s fighting for a diverse Bond&mdash;sorry, white guys.&rdquo;
Still, the fact that he&rsquo;s even part of the conversation is, in his view, an honour. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s flattering. Truly. But I think there are other roles within that universe that could be just as exciting&mdash;without the baggage.&rdquo;
Denis Villeneuve Confirmed as Bond&rsquo;s New Director
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/f556acdd71e990410d120a0ac2bcb664e625ca6a98dd8420f6383abd64d53f4e" />
While the search for the next Bond actor continues, the creative direction of the franchise has officially changed hands. Acclaimed filmmaker Denis Villeneuve, best known for Dune and Blade Runner 2049, has been confirmed as the director for the next James Bond film under Amazon MGM Studios.
The studio, which gained creative control of the Bond intellectual property in a historic deal, aims to reinvigorate the franchise with Villeneuve&rsquo;s bold, visionary style. He will also serve as executive producer alongside Tanya Lapointe, with producers Amy Pascal and David Heyman attached.
&ldquo;James Bond is sacred territory for me,&rdquo; Villeneuve said in a statement. &ldquo;Some of my earliest film memories were watching Sean Connery in Dr. No with my father. This is a huge responsibility&mdash;but also a massive honour.&rdquo;
Amazon MGM&rsquo;s decision marks the first full reboot of the franchise since acquiring MGM for $8.5 billion in 2022. With Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson stepping back from producing duties, the series is poised to enter a new creative chapter.
So, Who Will Be the Next Bond?
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/0c3b23d2b8d7027bec19009439586696d35f969751fd8d8fa620a96cbeddc435" />
With Daniel Craig&rsquo;s tenure officially over following No Time to Die, the hunt for his replacement continues. Names floated over the years include Idris Elba, Tom Hardy, Henry Cavill, Reg&eacute;-Jean Page, James Norton, Richard Madden, Damson Idris, Cillian Murphy, and Aaron Taylor-Johnson.
Yet, with Villeneuve&rsquo;s recent appointment, the direction of the next film could influence casting in unexpected ways. Will the next Bond stick to the tried-and-tested formula&mdash;or will the studio opt for someone who breaks convention entirely?
Golding&rsquo;s Spy Future Still on the Table
While Golding may not want to carry the Bond mantle, that doesn&rsquo;t mean he&rsquo;s ruling out roles in the spy genre altogether. &ldquo;I&rsquo;d love to play a secret agent, just maybe not the secret agent,&rdquo; he said with a grin.
His honesty about the pitfalls of the role is a rare glimpse into the internal debates actors face behind the scenes. For now, the search for 007 continues&mdash;but perhaps the real evolution of the Bond universe lies not in who plays him next, but in how the story itself evolves.
Hard to Beat the Swagger of Daniel Craig
One thing is certain&mdash;whoever steps into the role next will have big shoes to fill. Daniel Craig brought a gritty elegance to the character that redefined Bond for a new generation. His mix of raw physicality, emotional depth, and that unmistakable swagger made him arguably one of the most memorable 007s since Sean Connery.
<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/ZIc4qOWZM_A" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
But No Time to Die not only closed the chapter on Craig&rsquo;s portrayal&mdash;it killed him off entirely, a shocking creative decision that has left fans divided and the franchise in uncharted territory. Replacing that kind of legacy isn&rsquo;t just about casting&mdash;it&rsquo;s about redefining what Bond is in a post-Craig world.

Henry Golding On the James Bond Role: “A Nightmare Every Actor Fears”

This summer, Penang is set to dazzle in shades of Dior as the celebrated Dioriviera experience makes its debut on the island, bringing a sun-drenched blend of fashion, art, and refined living. From 13 June to 11 August 2025, Dior transforms the stately colonial setting of Macalister Mansion into a glamorous Mediterranean-inspired escape &mdash; a luxurious homage to the spirit of summer and the timeless allure of wanderlust.
After charming fashion aficionados at Desaru Coast in 2023 and later in Pavilion Kuala Lumpur, this year&rsquo;s Dioriviera journey continues with a new chapter in Penang, inviting Malaysians and travellers alike to bask in Dior&rsquo;s take on the season of sun, style, and sensuality.

A Poetic Summer Reverie at Macalister Mansion
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/7fdc97fbc206b390482d70b600f88415acc2d843539777197cca9e42a2bd99f5" />
Set against the heritage backdrop of the iconic Macalister Mansion, the Penang pop-up is more than a retail event &mdash; it&rsquo;s a carefully curated immersive experience. Visitors will be welcomed into a Dior dreamscape, where colonial elegance meets tropical fantasy. Lush bamboo installations, breezy canopies, and Toile de Jouy-adorned settings evoke the feel of a coastal sanctuary, all under the artistic direction of Dior&rsquo;s evocative mise en sc&egrave;ne.
This latest Dioriviera concept is steeped in the spirit of eternal summer &mdash; an attitude as much as a collection. Drawing inspiration from Monsieur Christian Dior&rsquo;s enduring love for travel and sunlit shores, the Maison brings its Riviera vision to life through a kaleidoscope of breezy silhouettes, nautical stripes, and reinvented icons.
The Collection: Toile de Jouy Reimagined, Tropical Charm Enhanced
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/4a4ace1765a74328052cd7636d092b4dd0afcf82c0e517311436c3c8d90f6db7" />
At the heart of the capsule collection is Dior&rsquo;s signature Toile de Jouy Sauvage, this time rendered in fresh hues of pink, turquoise, and sun-bleached ivory. Joining the lineup is the new Toile de Jouy Palms motif &mdash; a design that celebrates the lush jungles and natural splendour of tropical landscapes. From ready-to-wear garments like sarongs, ponchos, and flowing blouses to accessories such as scarves, caps, and straw hats, the collection captures a carefree yet refined spirit.
The much-loved Lady D-Lite and Dior Book Tote bags also return in updated looks, adorned with the season&rsquo;s pastoral patterns. Footwear options range from minimalist to playful, with the beloved Dway slides available in a variety of colours, materials, and heel heights, while the Dioract mules and D-Sand sandals offer both comfort and style for city strolls or beachside lounging. The latter come playfully embellished with marine-themed charms that add just the right hint of whimsy.
Lifestyle Luxe: From Fashion to Homeware
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/b08b662b286c1ad6bb7b35e0d7fb19eb0c7e005f2347b4f00816bd44d7aa811b" />
In true Dior style, the Dioriviera experience extends beyond wardrobe staples into the realm of luxury home living. Dior Maison unveils a new range of summer essentials &mdash; beach mats, furniture, and tableware crafted from natural materials and decorated with the iconic Cannage pattern. Notable collaborations include ceramic palm trees by Jean Roger and hand-painted enamelware vases and candle jars from the Manufacture des Emaux de Longwy, adding a touch of artisanal French savoir-faire to any home.
Jewellery lovers can also revel in the Dior Cabinet d&rsquo;&Eacute;t&eacute;, a seasonal collection of ocean-inspired accessories &mdash; think seahorses, starfish, pearls, and turret shells, designed to complement any sun-soaked ensemble.
The Dior Caf&eacute;: A Taste of the Riviera in Penang

A standout highlight of the experience is the Dior Caf&eacute;, nestled within the mansion itself. This refined culinary retreat is a destination in its own right, serving up an elegant selection of Dior-themed refreshments and treats in a serene, stylish setting. Whether you're there for an Instagram-worthy coffee break or a leisurely afternoon with friends, the caf&eacute; perfectly encapsulates the Dioriviera lifestyle &mdash; luxurious, artistic, and effortlessly chic.
The caf&eacute; opens daily at 10.30am, slightly earlier than the pop-up, which welcomes guests from 11.00am to 9.00pm. Visitors are encouraged to take their time, enjoy the space, and immerse themselves in the full experience &mdash; from sipping curated drinks to shopping the latest capsule pieces.
A Riviera Escape, Malaysian Style
By planting its Dioriviera flag in Penang, Dior has elevated Malaysia&rsquo;s northern jewel into the global fashion spotlight. With its blend of colonial charm, rich cultural history, and lush surroundings, Macalister Mansion offers the perfect canvas for Dior&rsquo;s poetic summer escape.
Whether you&rsquo;re a style enthusiast, a design lover, or someone simply seeking a unique seasonal indulgence, Dioriviera in Penang promises a multisensory journey into the world of Dior &mdash; elegant, inspiring, and undeniably summery.

We all know that in Malaysia, the F&amp;B market is notoriously hard to crack &ndash; but with a bit of grit, clever marketing, and maybe a sprinkle of boycott momentum (*cough* Starbucks and the Palestine conflict *cough*), the doors have slowly opened for homegrown names to rise to prominence.

One of the most successful among them is ZUS Coffee &ndash; a proudly Malaysian franchise that has rapidly captured public attention. Known for its bold branding and aggressive expansion, ZUS has steadily built a loyal following. Originally famed for its coffee, the company is now setting its sights on a new frontier: tea.

Recently, ZUS Coffee officially launched its brand-new &ldquo;ZUS Tea Series&rdquo;, diversifying its previously coffee-dominated menu to tap into Malaysia&rsquo;s booming milk tea craze. The new range features three flavours &ndash; Dark Oolong Milk Tea, Jasmine Milk Tea, and White Peach Oolong Milk Tea &ndash; each available hot or iced.
It didn&rsquo;t take long for netizens to notice the strategic similarities to CHAGEE, a leading premium tea franchise in Malaysia. X (formally known as Twitter) user @fdajesfry remarked, &ldquo;ZUS now has a Tea Series and they&rsquo;re clearly going for CHAGEE&rsquo;s target market, they put White Peach Oolong Milk Tea at the top of the list.&rdquo; The user rated the new drinks 2 out of 5 stars, citing artificial taste and overpowering fragrance.
Still, some online users applauded ZUS for its daring move, recognising it as a calculated expansion that responds to growing demand for milk teas &ndash; especially among a younger crowd shifting their loyalties from international brands to local players.
Here&rsquo;s some of the comments from netizens online:

As a regular drinker of Chagee, Beutea, and Zus, Zus sucks at making tea. Its coffee is decent. For sweet tea, among the three: I&rsquo;d choose Chagee (primary) and Beutea.

Unlikely Chagee received any competition at all, ZUS tea series used a tea base that was already packed in bottles while chagee use a tea brewing machine. However it's just fun to see a coffee focused drink company, try and error with tea series.

CHAGEE&rsquo;s Market Dominance&mdash;and Its Recent Setbacks
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/7c1bb96ef7fbebd69181ae2d88aa7d5250c027eb7f6982f76a82a770bd5e618b" />
CHAGEE has become a go-to name for premium milk teas in Malaysia, known for its sleek stores and Chinese-inspired flavours. However, the brand hasn&rsquo;t been free of controversy.

In March 2025, CHAGEE drew sharp criticism after its mobile app featured a &ldquo;nine-dash line&rdquo; map &ndash; a controversial symbol tied to China&rsquo;s maritime claims in the South China Sea. The inclusion sparked outrage among Malaysians who saw it as politically insensitive. Following public backlash, the brand removed the graphic and issued a public apology.
This wasn&rsquo;t the first time CHAGEE found itself under fire. Back in November 2024, the company faced public anger over a lucky draw campaign that triggered complaints of employee misconduct and alleged rigging. Again, the brand responded with a formal apology, but the episode damaged consumer trust.
These back-to-back PR setbacks may have opened the door for competitors like ZUS to step in and appeal to Malaysians seeking ethically and locally grounded alternatives.
RM9.90 Launch Promo: Will ZUS&rsquo;s Tea Steal the Spotlight?
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/720109275e8f5f0f0f875c479a00835a977987e2a6207e3c8ea31acdd2f78a6e" />
ZUS Coffee is currently offering its new Tea Series at an introductory price of RM9.90 &ndash; a tempting invitation for customers to try the drinks and decide for themselves whether ZUS can stand up to the established tea giants.
Love it or hate it, one thing&rsquo;s for sure: ZUS isn&rsquo;t just watching the market &ndash; it&rsquo;s actively disrupting it. With clever timing, local roots, and an eye on its competitors&rsquo; stumbles, ZUS Coffee is carving out more than just a niche &ndash; it&rsquo;s building a brand that&rsquo;s here to stay.

While many are all for supporting local, some netizens think ZUS should’ve just stuck to what they do best — coffee.

ZUS Coffee Enters The Tea Game – And CHAGEE Might Just Be In Their Crosshairs

In a marketplace saturated with conventional promotions and loyalty schemes, global ice cream brand Mixue has taken a refreshingly different approach to customer engagement in Malaysia. Eschewing the usual discounts and digital vouchers, the brand launched a creative and interactive promotion that offered customers free ice cream in exchange for a lively public performance of the company&rsquo;s catchy theme song.
This unusual campaign has not only drawn crowds and applause in-store, but also taken social media by storm&mdash;proving once again that when brands let their customers do the talking (or in this case, the singing), the results can be pure marketing gold.
Heartfelt Performance by Five Friends Captivates Netizens Online

One particular video that has gone viral exemplifies the spirit of the campaign perfectly. Uploaded by TikTok user @casa.markaz, the clip features a man and four of his friends standing confidently at a Mixue counter, preparing to belt out the company&rsquo;s theme tune in exchange for free ice cream.
Before diving into their impromptu concert, the group&rsquo;s spokesman cheekily asked the cashier, &ldquo;Kak, if we sing, we get it for free, right?&rdquo; After receiving confirmation, he turned the camera to his friends, gave a quick &ldquo;1&hellip;2&hellip;3,&rdquo; and the group launched into a spirited rendition of the brand&rsquo;s familiar jingle.
What made the moment even more memorable was the visible contrast in personalities&mdash;while most of the group sang with pride and joy, one of them bowed his head in bashful embarrassment halfway through, clearly not as outgoing as the rest. Still, the group completed the song, drawing smiles and applause, and were soon seen happily enjoying their well-earned reward.
The heart-warming and hilarious video has since garnered over 1.2 million views, rapidly spreading across social media platforms and igniting conversations about the cleverness of the campaign.
Laughter, Applause and a Lesson in Low-Cost Virality
Online reactions to the campaign have been overwhelmingly positive. In the comments section of the now-viral video, users praised the group&rsquo;s courage and sense of humour, noting that such spontaneity is rarely seen in public settings these days.
Many also empathised with the introverted member of the group, while others joked about the experience of Mixue staff, who were likely inundated with countless renditions of the jingle throughout the day.
&ldquo;This is pure marketing genius&mdash;get people singing, laughing, and posting your brand for free!&rdquo; &ldquo;The shy guy is all of us deep inside.&rdquo; &ldquo;Imagine being the cashier&mdash;20 versions of the same song, every day!&rdquo;
Beyond the humour, many marketing observers have pointed out the sheer effectiveness of Mixue&rsquo;s approach. It cost them little in terms of overhead, yet the exposure gained through user-generated content and social shares has far exceeded the return of traditional media campaigns.
Here&rsquo;s some of the comments:

From 1st to 12th May, any customer willing to sing the &ldquo;Mixue Melon Time&rdquo; song at a participating branch will be rewarded with a free Melon Ice Cream, turning everyday visits into mini musical performances.
But the campaign doesn&rsquo;t end at the store counter. From 1st to 14th May, Mixue is also inviting fans to get creative online. Participants can record themselves singing or dancing to the &ldquo;Melon Time&rdquo; jingle and post their videos on social media with the hashtag #MIXUEMelonTime.

This blend of offline fun and online creativity strengthens Mixue&rsquo;s brand identity as one that embraces playfulness, spontaneity, and shared experiences. It&rsquo;s a campaign tailor-made for the TikTok generation&mdash;bite-sized, bold, and bound to go viral.
A Sweet Tune for Brand Loyalty
With their clever promotional campaigns and delightfully low-stakes challenges, Mixue has struck the perfect balance between entertainment, reward, and brand exposure. Whether it&rsquo;s a heartfelt performance by a group of friends or a creative video posted online, the takeaway is simple: sometimes, a song and a scoop of ice cream are all it takes to win hearts&mdash;and customers.
So if you fancy yourself a singer (or just really want a free ice cream), it might be time to warm up those vocal cords. After all, when was the last time a jingle earned you dessert?

Mixue’s Sing-For-Ice Cream Campaign Has Malaysians Singing (And Crying) For Joy

Fans of NCT Dream in Malaysia have every reason to celebrate this April as Chenle (천러), one of the group&rsquo;s most beloved members, is making a highly anticipated return to Kuala Lumpur. This time, it&rsquo;s not just for music or fan signings&mdash;but for tea. Yes, tea. More specifically, CHAGEE tea.
From Casual Fan Moment to Tea Brand Phenomenon
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/2e4a667677bf2142d42c664e2272561ee2618cc0cc7f504f475f14029e06f884" />
Back in May 2024, during a fan signing event in Malaysia, Chenle inadvertently became a key marketing force for CHAGEE, a premium tea brand that has rapidly grown in popularity across Southeast Asia. When a fan casually asked him about his favourite beverage, Chenle enthusiastically replied, &ldquo;Jasmine green milk tea!&rdquo;
That seemingly innocent remark created a ripple effect among fans, with many rushing to CHAGEE outlets to try the drink themselves. In the days and weeks that followed, CHAGEE reported a noticeable uptick in footfall and sales, all thanks to the unintentional but powerful endorsement from the K-pop idol.
Recognising the extraordinary impact of this viral moment, CHAGEE has now made things official by naming Chenle as a &ldquo;Friend of CHAGEE&rdquo;. This honorary title is not just symbolic&mdash;it comes with a dedicated signature drink and a nationwide promotional campaign.
Introducing the Hojicha Genmai Milk Tea
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/ed392f6a77815bb2c1d7b8bf6bc67846a2a4724d80635515db6dbced725cf8ff" />
To celebrate this partnership, CHAGEE has released a brand-new beverage in Chenle&rsquo;s honour: the Hojicha Genmai Milk Tea. A rich, roasted blend of Japanese hojicha tea and genmai (toasted brown rice), the drink brings together comforting warmth and nutty undertones&mdash;perfect for fans looking for something new while enjoying a flavour that pays tribute to Chenle&rsquo;s taste.
The launch of this signature drink marks a milestone not just for CHAGEE, but also for K-pop collaborations in Malaysia, reflecting how celebrity influence can transcend music and blend seamlessly into lifestyle brands.
CHAGEE Teases Special Guest&mdash;Fans Guess Correctly
Last week, CHAGEE sparked excitement online with cryptic social media posts hinting at a &ldquo;special guest&rdquo; making an appearance in Malaysia. It didn&rsquo;t take long for fans to piece together the clues and suspect that Chenle was the mystery figure in question.
Their instincts proved spot on. CHAGEE has now confirmed that Chenle will indeed be coming to Malaysia for an exclusive meet and greet event later this month. This announcement has since sent fans into a frenzy, eager for a chance to meet the idol face-to-face.
Scratch and Win: Your Chance to Meet Chenle
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/fac7d65f67ae6ffd8dc63e25dea9aff758a5aef25bd7cee76a13df39731e25a3" />
In conjunction with this upcoming event, CHAGEE has launched a &ldquo;Scratch and Win&rdquo; campaign to give fans the opportunity of a lifetime&mdash;a personal meeting with Chenle himself. The mechanics are simple yet exciting.
From 11th April 2025, customers who spend RM30 or more at selected CHAGEE outlets&mdash;either by walking in or using the CHAGEE mobile app&mdash;will receive a scratch card from the tearista at the counter. These cards offer various prizes, including vouchers for the Hojicha Genmai Milk Tea, merchandise, and the grand prize: an exclusive meet and greet ticket with Chenle.
The campaign is available at selected participating outlets nationwide, with full terms and conditions available via CHAGEE&rsquo;s social media platforms.
