Hi Beauty Besties!&nbsp;
What&rsquo;s the first thing you do after you wake up in the morning? For me, it&rsquo;s choosing my positive affirmation to start my long day. And one of them is to make myself look better (well, at least not so bare-faced after having a good-night sleep) with my go-to make up products!&nbsp;
<img src="https://img.buzzfeed.com/buzzfeed-static/static/2017-04/13/8/asset/buzzfeed-prod-fastlane-01/anigif_sub-buzz-5595-1492087682-12.gif" alt="17 Makeup GIFs That Are So Satisfying They're Borderline Erotic" width="436" height="245" />
As a woman myself, I truly understand we all got the same problem. Yes, it&rsquo;s always been with our lips.&nbsp;
Either that thing is so dry after spending 7+ hours of sleep with AC on, or it&rsquo;s chapped because of the certain ingredients we are allergic to from the lip products we use. Or, the sensitive lips problem that some teenagers also get makes us can&rsquo;t use any products without looking at them extra carefully. Ugh!&nbsp;
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://i.pinimg.com/originals/85/b7/a2/85b7a2d5c282c6fcd45b02702dce420b.gif" alt="New trendy GIF/ Giphy. the hills 1x05 lauren conrad lc the hills 105 lip bite lip biting. Let like/ repin/ &hellip; | Oral hygienist, Wisdom teeth pulled, Dental assistant" width="403" height="230" />
But worry not, because Emina Cosmetics is here to solve those problems with their products that are designated for teenagers!&nbsp;
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://r2.myc.my/8cd234b275480eacd2e379eab36ea04ee7eb25bdc10c1537e14006ad63336a10" alt="" width="334" height="216" />
Emina Cosmetic itself is an Indonesian beauty brand that offers skincare and cosmetics, specifically designed and formulated for teenagers with different skin tones, skin types, and skin problems.
Apart from skincare, Emina offers cosmetics too! Ranging from the lips, eyes, face, makeup category, as well as beauty tools, Emina focused on lightweight formulas, easy to apply, affordable and good quality products to keep teens looking fresh, feeling confident and in touch with their playful side.
Emina themselves, launched several lip series ever since they launched their first products. For some people, it might be confusing to differentiate which is which since most of the lip products have the same texture and it just looks like each other, but it&rsquo;s different somehow!&nbsp;
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://r2.myc.my/3711d5e7e41ebaac7965511f750168cdfee73215dda7a36e5f056ee00a123a50" alt="" width="371" height="242" />
I also believe that color determines someone&rsquo;s personality. To embody teenage girls with fun, cheerful, and active personalities, Emina offers teenagers different kinds of lip products with different textures, colors, and touches to make them magnificent. Here are some of them that you can try, to escalate your whole makeup look!&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Every It Girl&rsquo;s Must-Have: The Glossy Stain
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://r2.myc.my/62697a8291e1171ffcee18b2fffcaf5aacceb8a784625c837105ccd0b69e56fb" alt="" width="435" height="207" /> &nbsp;
If you watch those old movies like Clueless, Mean Girls, Legally Blond, or The Princess Diaries, you would&rsquo;ve seen the main characters using lip glosses to make their lips look effortlessly healthy, plump, and shiny. But the problem is some of the lip glosses don&rsquo;t have colors and they just don&rsquo;t suit some of the natural lip colors that Asians like us have.&nbsp;
Well, not with Emina tho! The Glossy stain will shine your lips with its wonderful gloss effect. You&rsquo;re energetic and not sure if it will make you feel uncomfortable while doing your activities? No problem, because it has a lightweight consistency, gel texture, and quick melting properties that are ideal.&nbsp;
Not only that, the collection comes in five adorable colors, including Autumn Bell with dark red-eggplant purple shade, Candy Rain which is basically a hot mixed dark pink color, Spring Dazzle that springs your mood with the bright, fresh red shade, Apple Shower with bright red and mixture of orangey shade that won&rsquo;t poison you, and Peach Sprinkles with a bright rose pink shade and a hint of peach color too! What&rsquo;s best is that this product is fortified with natural beeswax and vitamin E-rich ingredients like avocado oil and apricot oil to keep the lips moisturized.
This product is just everything! You can even use it that way, without layering it with any other lip products. It gives you a shiny, plumpy lip feel, and it doesn&rsquo;t have any annoying textures or make your lip feel like it&rsquo;s patching. It can be considered your comfort go-to lip product!&nbsp;
&nbsp;
The Cherry On Top To Your Ice Cream, The Creammatte Lip Cream!&nbsp;
 <img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://r2.myc.my/395e131ac79d6518da0c5a51580beb2aa48effb8fef6a35a2224ea0fdb59c9eb" alt="" width="496" height="270" />
Do you know that the matte look is a trend now? Then why should you be worried you won&rsquo;t achieve that look when you have the Creammatte Lip Cream with you?&nbsp;
The Creammatte lip cream, which contains nourishing vitamin E, is transfer-proof and buildable. They also come in 15 different, vibrant, long-lasting shades for teenagers to select as they please, and based on the mood you want to go for!&nbsp;
Their shades are very versatile and suitable for every skin tone, especially for Asians. Neutral, medium, warm, they got chu! From the lightest shade to the darkest, from Chocolava (Shade 01) to Chocopuff (Shade 15), you can wear it just as it is or mix the shades to give you the ombre lips look! See, you can even achieve different looks with just one product.&nbsp;
Don&rsquo;t you worry, Besties. Emina&rsquo;s Creammatte Lip Cream won&rsquo;t make your lips chapped and dry like you imagined if you&rsquo;re using a matte-textured lip cream. Despite this, it&rsquo;ll moisturize your lips with the vitamin E they have in it. And don&rsquo;t forget the shade too! The shade is just.. Pretty. It can make your lips somehow bigger with the brush to apply it that can reach &lsquo;till the edge of your lip lines! Kylie Jenner look shall we?&nbsp;
&nbsp;
The 2-in-1 Skincare-Lip Product You&rsquo;ll Always Need: The Watercolor Lip Serum.
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://r2.myc.my/adbfbe92a4fcf4271ed1e6307e18d0af6ab33191e7f58ebb1a8ed5779192c7a8" alt="" width="376" height="229" />
A 2-in-1 product, Lip serum with a color in it? What&rsquo;s better than that? Nothing!&nbsp;
Well, it&rsquo;s not just an ordinary 2-in-1 product like what you thought about. This lip serum has a very lightweight texture with a sheer buildable color. What makes it lightweight is the Vitamin C and UV protection consistency to give you protection from the sun and moisturize your lip with the Wild Apple Oil!
What&rsquo;s best is that it can also brighten up your lip color naturally within 7 DAYS. Unlike those claims we always heard that the product can brighten up your lip but actually damages it, this lip serum is different. Since it has the best quality-checked ingredients in it, you don&rsquo;t have to worry that it will change your natural lip color or gives you any side effects.&nbsp;
It also comes in 4 different colors - Dawn with deep burgundy berry color, Mist with a natural pink-rose shade to give you &lsquo;that&rsquo; Korean look, Dusk in nude brown color so you can go for the &lsquo;MLBB&rsquo; (My Lips But Better) look, and finally Haze which is the glossy, light pink color to finalize the whole look.&nbsp;
Another Matte Besties To Make Your Look Popped Out, The Poppin&rsquo; Matte Series!&nbsp;
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://r2.myc.my/ee4e3faa7cbf18e6a0ec2e79c9514f60d74388483183f984f03930c3a8dbad06" alt="" width="502" height="250" /> 
Feeling like the Creammatte Lip Cream is not enough for different looks? Well, they have another option just for you, which is the Poppin&rsquo; Matte Series!
Well, what&rsquo;s the difference between Creammatte and Poppin Matte? Poppin Matte is also a lightweight lip cream, with transfer-proof matte finishing, and long-lasting up to 12 hours. Whoa, lasts for half a day?! Besides it is very transfer-proof and comfortable to use, the stain is very pigmented so it&rsquo;s even easier to apply. You don&rsquo;t need to reapply it thooouusaanddss times, just one swatch, and voil&aacute;! You got the spotlight!&nbsp;
Now the shades! Poppin Matte has 5 different shades to complement any of your looks or vibes you want to give. Starting from &lsquo;Lowkey&rsquo;, a light nude pink that will be a good choice to be the base color, &lsquo;To Be Honest&rsquo; which gives a bit of neutral mauve color to make your lips look bright, fresh, and cheerful, &lsquo;Game On&rsquo; to prepare you to be on point with the mixture of light red, peach and rose color, &lsquo;Snatched&rsquo; with the bright brick color, and last but not least, &lsquo;Easy Peasy&rsquo; for the nude-brown color lovers besties!&nbsp;
When you say the product is transfer-proof, you might think that it will give you the sticky texture on your lips that will, again, chap your lips. But not with Poppin Matte, because yes, it&rsquo;s non-sticky, but it won&rsquo;t stick lightly anywhere else besides on your lips so you can use it as comfortably as ever!&nbsp;
&nbsp;
What&rsquo;s best about Emina besides their product qualities is that they utilize teenagers as their models and inspiration, so their products are just not &ldquo;made for teens&rdquo; but really made for teens. They always use teenagers as their target market and prove their identity as the teens&rsquo; Beauty Bestie, that is always there for them on every occasion the teens have as the completion for their looks.

Who Run The World? Emina Cosmetics And Their Beauty Besties! 

Beloved modern retro band MASDO has officially marked a decade in Malaysia&rsquo;s music scene with an unforgettable fan event and the exciting announcement of a full-scale anniversary concert this coming August. Known for their infectious throwback sound and strong fanbase, the trio celebrated the milestone in true MASDO fashion&mdash;complete with mystery, music, and meaningful moments.
Who Are MASDO?
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/e538077f77e8c082276bd4428214797733e1621ac04a10d25713438864318adc" />
&nbsp;MASDO is a Malaysian pop rock band known for their modern take on 1960s "pop yeh yeh" music, blending retro styles with contemporary flair. Formed in 2015, the band comprises Ali Sariah (vocals/guitar), Putu Ceri (bass/backing vocals), and Asmawi (guitar/backing vocals). Their name, inspired by the character "Do" from the classic P. Ramlee film Do Re Mi, reflects their homage to Malaysia's musical heritage.

MASDO gained widespread recognition with their debut single "Bunga" in 2016, followed by hits like "Dinda," "Janji Manis," and "Pujaanku" featuring Aisyah Aziz. Their song "Dinda" achieved viral status on TikTok in Indonesia, leading to over 60 million streams on Spotify by January 2025. The track also reached the finals of Anugerah Juara Lagu 34 in 2020.
The band's discography includes the albums Selamat Tinggal Pujaan (2017) and Jalan Abbey (2020), the latter recorded at London's iconic Abbey Road Studios. In 2024, they released the single "Perih Jerih" and embarked on a tour across Indonesia, performing in cities like Jakarta, Yogyakarta, and Bali.
In recognition of their growing influence, MASDO was nominated for Best Asia Act at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards, marking a significant milestone in their international presence.
With their distinctive style and commitment to reviving classic Malaysian pop, MASDO continues to captivate audiences both locally and abroad.

MASDO To Mark A Decade With “Al-Kisah Masdo Sepuloh Tahun” Concert!

The federal government is actively exploring the possibility of broadening the scope of its FLYSiswa initiative to include land transport subsidies for students in Peninsular Malaysia. This potential expansion of the programme&mdash;currently limited to subsidised air travel&mdash;was announced by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim during a dialogue session at the Management and Science University (MSU) in Shah Alam on Monday.
Calls to Extend FLYSiswa Beyond Air Travel
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/d81bea9b68f60e671282fdc87aea7736db677d2d4a80a913b01167a8b4498c9c" />
The proposal came in response to a question from a student participant, who suggested that the government extend the FLYSiswa initiative to land-based transport such as buses and trains. The student noted that many students in the peninsula still struggle with travel costs when returning home, particularly those attending universities far from their hometowns.
Anwar acknowledged the concern and said the idea warranted serious consideration. He confirmed that discussions would soon be held with Transport Minister Anthony Loke to evaluate how the scheme could be adapted to better serve students throughout the country&mdash;not just those travelling between East and West Malaysia.
"As for FLYSiswa in the peninsula, I&rsquo;ll discuss it with the Transport Minister,&rdquo; Anwar said. &ldquo;Perhaps for certain areas or specific locations, we can look into implementing it. The needs of students in the peninsula are just as important and deserve to be reviewed.&rdquo;
What is FLYSiswa?
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/7b926fa80d674293c5e3d5cc5455736884d622380625523f8188030e3ec5a745" />
The FLYSiswa programme is an annual government initiative introduced under the Ministry of Transport. It provides subsidies for flight tickets for students at public universities, polytechnics, and community colleges under the Ministry of Higher Education, as well as students in matriculation centres and teacher training institutes under the Ministry of Education.
Its core aim is to ease the financial burden of students travelling long distances for academic purposes, especially those commuting between Peninsular Malaysia and the states of Sabah, Sarawak, and the Federal Territory of Labuan. The scheme has proven particularly vital during festive periods, when airfares can surge dramatically due to high demand.
Read: <a href="https://myc.my/articles/4048/flysiswa-2025-how-to-apply-for-the-public-university-travel-subsidy">FLYsiswa 2025: How To Apply For The Public University Travel Subsidy</a>
High Airfares During Festive Seasons Prompt Government Action
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/ed489deaa1b776141067ae9e3eda26299c076509630e9c8e69d98a85e71c1612" />
Anwar noted that the primary reason East Malaysian students were prioritised in the current FLYSiswa rollout is due to the consistently high price of domestic flights to and from the Bornean states. He said airfares tend to rise sharply around Hari Raya, Christmas, and other festive periods, placing immense financial pressure on families and students.
"We need to ensure that ticket prices remain reasonable and that there is no price exploitation," the Prime Minister stressed. &ldquo;If a ticket usually costs RM20 and suddenly doubles during a festive season, that&rsquo;s unacceptable. The government is duty-bound to intervene and create mechanisms to prevent such unreasonable hikes.&rdquo;
He added that while airline fare regulation falls under the purview of market forces, there must be a balance to prevent profit-maximising practices from disadvantaging those who can least afford them.
Inclusion of Land Transport Would Mark Major Shift 
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/df38df80ddbebf3a77316de31f48966ec02547a0cee8784814d79728329df7b0" />
If implemented, the expansion of FLYSiswa to include land transport in Peninsular Malaysia would be a significant shift in policy. It could potentially cover bus and train travel for students who face long or costly commutes between their hometowns and university campuses, especially in rural or underserved areas.
While the Prime Minister did not confirm the exact modalities or timeline for such an expansion, he reiterated the government&rsquo;s commitment to ensuring equitable access to education-related support for all students, regardless of geography.
Revamping the Perdana Fellow Programme for Greater Youth Access
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/2784947d97aafb7ec15848de0099b4c32654cd233a35ef0e944757264a7a6b06" />
In a related announcement, Anwar also revealed plans to expand and improve the Perdana Fellow Programme. The initiative, established in 2013, was designed to expose young Malaysians to the inner workings of government through direct mentorship under ministers and senior officials.
According to the Prime Minister, the Akademi Kenegaraan Malaysia is spearheading a review of the programme to allow more young people to participate, including those who may not qualify for the current highly selective intake.
&ldquo;We&rsquo;re in discussions to enhance the programme, and not everyone needs to be an official fellow to benefit,&rdquo; Anwar explained. &ldquo;We want to provide opportunities for more young Malaysians to interact with national scholars, senior leaders, and policymakers in structured, meaningful ways.&rdquo;
He stressed that the programme plays a crucial role in helping future leaders understand the responsibilities of governance while shielding them from misinformation and baseless accusations about the administration&rsquo;s work.
Engaging the Youth Through Exposure and Opportunity
The Prime Minister emphasised that initiatives like FLYSiswa and the Perdana Fellow Programme are part of the government&rsquo;s broader effort to invest in Malaysia&rsquo;s future by empowering its youth.
&ldquo;We must ensure our young people are supported not just in their academic journey, but also in their development as informed, capable citizens,&rdquo; he said.
The Temu Anwar session at MSU was attended by over 4,000 students and marked the Prime Minister&rsquo;s first formal engagement with a private university. Also present were Deputy Higher Education Minister Datuk Mustapha Sakmud, MSU President Tan Sri Dr Mohd Shukri Ab Yajid, and Vice-Chancellor Prof Puan Sri Dr Junainah Abd Hamid.

Govt May Expand FLYSiswa To Include Land Transport For Peninsular Students, Says Anwar

Netflix has unveiled the first teaser trailer for the hotly anticipated third season of its record-breaking Korean dystopian thriller Squid Game, confirming a global premiere date of 27 June 2025. Marketed as the final chapter in the main saga, Season 3 promises even higher stakes, emotional turmoil, and a reckoning that could bring the entire deadly enterprise crashing down &mdash; or see it evolve into something even more terrifying.
A Global Streaming Phenomenon Like No Other
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/0037363f23c764535b21437862951d0639cacc14aa06aa2d60a88b37bd4d6bdf" />
When Squid Game first premiered in September 2021, few could have predicted the cultural impact it would ignite. With its brutal depiction of a twisted competition where debt-ridden players fight &mdash; and die &mdash; for a life-changing cash prize, the series struck a nerve globally. Season 1 shattered records with 265.2 million views, becoming the most-watched Netflix series of all time.
The long-awaited Season 2, which dropped in December 2024, didn&rsquo;t just live up to expectations &mdash; it rewrote them. The sophomore outing pulled in 192.4 million views within its first few days, ranking second on Netflix&rsquo;s all-time list for non-English language series and reaffirming the franchise&rsquo;s dominance in the streaming era.
With both critical acclaim and a ravenous fanbase behind it, Netflix opted to film Seasons 2 and 3 back-to-back, ensuring narrative continuity and production momentum. The decision has enabled the final season to arrive just six months after the previous one &mdash; a rare turnaround in the age of multi-year delays.
Gi-hun&rsquo;s Return: A Hero&rsquo;s Grief Turns to Vengeance
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/893aee1445c046680e22e753287b808d876778306372ef2a143ca91761b5681f" />
Season 3 picks up immediately where Season 2 left off, with Seong Gi-hun (Lee Jung-jae), also known as Player 456, choosing not to board a flight to the United States, instead turning back toward the source of his trauma. After the devastating death of his friend and ally Jung-bae (played by Lee Seo-hwan) &mdash; executed by the enigmatic Front Man for attempting to expose the organisation &mdash; Gi-hun resolves to bring down the game from the inside.
This season, Gi-hun is no longer a reluctant survivor. He returns as a man fuelled by loss, rage, and a sense of responsibility for the lives destroyed by the games. As series creator Hwang Dong-hyuk teased, &ldquo;He&rsquo;s on a path of no return now. The question is not just whether he can survive, but whether he can live with what he must do.&rdquo;
According to early previews, viewers can expect a far darker, more psychological version of Gi-hun &mdash; a transformation that reflects the moral ambiguity of dismantling an institution from within.
Unveiling the Trailer: Mystery, Symbolism, and a New Game of Chance
&nbsp;<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/CH0dGVRecec" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
The teaser trailer, which premiered on 6 May, opens with a haunting visual callback: masked pink-suited guards solemnly carry a black coffin, wrapped in a pink ribbon, into the arena &mdash; a familiar symbol of the game&rsquo;s brutal &lsquo;elimination&rsquo; ritual. Players gather around in fearful silence, only to discover Gi-hun inside, unconscious.
As he awakens, the camera cuts to a towering gumball machine dispensing red and blue spheres &mdash; possibly signalling a new set of rules, alliances, or fates. One orb lands ominously at Gi-hun&rsquo;s feet. Just before the screen fades to black, the cry of a baby echoes, fuelling speculation among fans that a pregnant player may give birth mid-game &mdash; a chilling metaphor for innocence trapped in a world of cruelty.
The tone is immediately more visceral and urgent than previous seasons. While Squid Game has always leaned on childhood nostalgia as a thematic tool, the trailer suggests that innocence, birth, and moral choices will play a central role in this final season.
Who&rsquo;s Returning for Season 3?
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/c797f1ebec023be624009868e931c970638d97e58ad40fb69c7182c70ad1312b" />
Several familiar faces are set to reprise their roles, continuing storylines that have captured fans worldwide:
<ul>
<li>Lee Byung-hun as the cold, calculating Front Man, whose own motivations and backstory have only begun to unravel.</li>
<li>Wi Ha-jun returns as detective Hwang Jun-ho, who miraculously survived his apparent death and is now closer than ever to exposing the game&rsquo;s organisers.</li>
<li>Yim Si-wan as Myung-gi (Player 333), the unpredictable recruit with a dark intellect.</li>
<li>Kang Ha-neul as Dae-ho (Player 388), a man haunted by his past and increasingly unstable.</li>
<li>Park Sung-hoon, Yang Dong-geun, Kang Ae-sim, and Jo Yu-ri return in their respective player roles.</li>
<li>Park Gyu-young is back as No-eul, the pink-suited guard whose conflicted morality hints at the possibility of rebellion within the ranks.</li>
</ul>
This diverse ensemble cast brings together new and old blood, promising complex alliances, betrayals, and unlikely friendships under the game&rsquo;s unforgiving pressure.
&nbsp;
Creator&rsquo;s Vision: Hwang Dong-hyuk&rsquo;s Story Comes Full Circle
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/18afd0db90d01d7b6f38dc90ef0a82ec6adddb3ae90ddc7c40a0ac45f87f1b1f" />
Series creator and director Hwang Dong-hyuk, who won an Emmy for Season 1 and returned to direct all six episodes of the final season, described Season 3 as a &ldquo;mirror and magnifier&rdquo; of the real world&rsquo;s growing inequality. He has previously stated that while Season 1 represented individual desperation, and Season 2 focused on resistance, Season 3 is about systemic collapse &mdash; or the failure thereof.
&ldquo;There is no escape,&rdquo; Hwang recently said in a press event. &ldquo;Even when you think you&rsquo;ve broken the game, the game changes shape and finds a way to survive. That&rsquo;s what Gi-hun is up against.&rdquo;
Spin-Offs, Games, and a Cinematic Universe in the Making
Although Season 3 is being positioned as the end of the main story, Netflix is not letting go of the Squid Game franchise anytime soon. A mobile title, Squid Game: Unleashed, was released in 2024 and remains one of the top-downloaded strategy games on both Android and iOS platforms. Netflix has also confirmed it is developing a spin-off, rumoured to be helmed by Mindhunter director David Fincher, though details remain under wraps.

A second season of the real-life competition series Squid Game: The Challenge is also in production, blending reality TV with game show mechanics to capitalise on the original series&rsquo; popularity.
With Stranger Things also concluding later in 2025, Netflix&rsquo;s shift toward Korean-led franchises underscores its global strategy &mdash; one that increasingly depends on high-concept, high-stakes storytelling beyond the English-speaking world.
The Endgame Begins
As the teaser draws to a close, Gi-hun stands in a sea of black coffins, the pink ribbons fluttering like taunts. His face is stoic. He reaches down, picks up the red ball from the gumball machine, and stares at it. The screen cuts to black. A single sentence appears: &ldquo;One last game.&rdquo;
With mounting tension, philosophical depth, and visual spectacle promised in every frame, Squid Game Season 3 is not merely the conclusion of a storyline &mdash; it&rsquo;s the climax of a cultural event that has defined a generation of streaming television.
Prepare to play. 27 June 2025. Only on Netflix.

‘Squid Game’ Season 3: Netflix Drops Teaser Trailer Ahead Of Explosive Finale

Malaysia&rsquo;s booming headscarf industry has long been a testament to the increasing demand for modest fashion, driven in part by celebrity-led brands. However, one of the country&rsquo;s major manufacturers is now facing financial hardship, claiming it is owed millions by a company linked to one of Malaysia&rsquo;s most recognisable stars&mdash;actress and entrepreneur Nur Fazura Sharifuddin.
According to legal documents and media interviews, Obor Holding Sdn Bhd&mdash;the owner of headscarf brand Feline Malaysia&mdash;is taking legal action against Fazura&rsquo;s company, alleging a debt of RM4.65 million stemming from unpaid supplies.
Legal Dispute Over Unpaid Hijab Orders
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/90e426a9f88504534ed4e254a0d9dae81c63f97f8105a215046d9a49550ed990" />
In a statement elaborated by Kosmo Online, Obor Holding alleges that Fazura&rsquo;s company, Pink Fate Sdn Bhd, received headscarf stock worth over RM7.3 million since June 2022. Of that total, only RM2.68 million has been paid, leaving an outstanding sum of RM4,650,029.14.
Pink Fate is widely associated with the Tudung Fazura brand, a popular hijab line co-founded by the celebrity herself. The claim further alleges that payment collection became increasingly difficult from December 2023 onwards, despite repeated reminders and attempts to settle the issue amicably.
Fazura and Family Named as Defendants
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/2be703f8c98b988c624fbae83d5988097247bb8eb9e67b6eb95b20c21fbc7e5c" />
Besides Pink Fate Sdn Bhd, the statement names several other parties as defendants in the lawsuit. Fazfit Sdn Bhd&mdash;believed to be behind Fazura&rsquo;s skincare range&mdash;is listed as the second defendant, while Fazura&rsquo;s brother, Ahmad Faiz Sharifuddin, is the third, and Fazura herself the fourth.
Obor Holding claims that in mid-2024, five additional headscarf orders were placed, amounting to RM3.6 million, despite the company already being in arrears. These new orders were said to be part of the &ldquo;Merdeka Collection&rdquo;, a joint initiative with the Ministry of Education to commemorate Malaysia&rsquo;s 67th Independence Day. According to the claim, Faiz had assured the manufacturer that the orders were backed by government funding.
To bolster confidence, Faiz and Fazura reportedly referenced collaborations with well-established institutions such as Boh Plantations (BOH), Movenpick Hotel, and the National Cancer Institute (IKN), as proof of their financial capability and credibility. This reassurance allegedly led Obor Holding to continue fulfilling orders in good faith.
Cheque Bounce Deepens Financial Blow
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/584412f44fbad5755fefb4079f05e4ccb2ead996369737f071fae84092e1ec03" />
Despite the volume of goods supplied, Obor Holding claims it has yet to receive any further payments. The manufacturer also revealed that in September 2024, it was handed a cheque worth RM1 million, co-signed by both Fazura and her brother. However, the cheque was dishonoured, and the company received a formal notice from the bank indicating insufficient funds.
All transactions referenced in the lawsuit reportedly occurred while Fazura was still a director of Pink Fate. She later stepped down in January 2025, but her brother Faiz remains actively involved in the company&rsquo;s management. In response to the ongoing non-payment, Obor Holding has initiated proceedings to obtain a Judgment in Default, as no response was filed by the defendants within the required legal timeframe.
Founder Expresses Frustration Over &lsquo;False Promises&rsquo;
 <img src="https://r2.myc.my/e43c3a2d4cd4d58ae469c23d1867f5b57ddfc060db2ee1a24b9d4556df7b1843" /> Lim Boon Hai (Sam) on the far right.
In an interview, Obor Holding founder and managing director Lim Boon Hai&mdash;also known as Sam&mdash;shared his dismay over the ordeal. He described the company&rsquo;s attempts to contact Fazura&rsquo;s team as fruitless and expressed frustration at being led on with what he called &ldquo;empty promises&rdquo;.
&ldquo;We have tried every possible method to reach them,&rdquo; said Lim. &ldquo;Since late 2023, it&rsquo;s been nearly impossible to recover the payments. Our financial position has suffered significantly because of this.&rdquo;
Lim also lamented that despite Fazura&rsquo;s public persona as a reputable figure, her company has allegedly failed to honour basic commercial commitments. &ldquo;I never expected someone as influential and well-known as Fazura to leave us hanging like this. We&rsquo;re not asking for favours&mdash;just the payment for goods we&rsquo;ve delivered.&rdquo;
He added that while he remains open to settling the matter outside court, the lack of cooperation from the other side has left him with no alternative. &ldquo;This is not the path we wanted to take. But their refusal to engage has forced us into legal proceedings.&rdquo;
Manufacturer Warns Others: &lsquo;Don&rsquo;t Be Misled by Popularity&rsquo;
Lim expressed concern that other small or medium-sized businesses might fall into similar traps when dealing with celebrity-backed ventures. &ldquo;Don&rsquo;t be too easily swayed by fame or influence. We&rsquo;ve learnt a painful lesson,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;I wouldn&rsquo;t have gone public if our claims weren&rsquo;t legitimate. This is about fairness and survival.&rdquo;
He stressed that his company had operated in good faith, trusting in the reputation of Fazura and her associates. However, what started as a promising partnership has turned into a legal and financial nightmare for Obor Holding and its manufacturing subsidiary, Feline Malaysia.
Silence from Fazura&rsquo;s Camp
Attempts to obtain comments from Fazura, her brother, and her management team have so far gone unanswered. As the case proceeds in the High Court of Kuala Lumpur, it remains to be seen whether Fazura or any of the named defendants will offer a public rebuttal or propose a settlement to avoid further reputational damage and legal escalation.
Fazura isn&rsquo;t the only celebrity facing mounting debt. Late 2024 saw several public figures thrust into the spotlight&mdash;not for their talent, but for the stark contrast between their glamorous social media personas and troubling financial realities.

The bigger question now is: how do these high-profile individuals continue to live so publicly and freely, despite owing substantial sums to others?

Fazura’s Company Sued Over RM4.65 Million Debt To Headscarf Manufacturer

A BYD Atto 3 owner has taken to social media to recount a frightening experience that occurred during a family road trip on 1st May. What should have been a routine journey from Melaka to Penang ended in a potentially life-threatening ordeal on the Cheras-Kajang Expressway, after the electric vehicle (EV) suddenly engaged emergency braking and stalled in the fast lane without warning.
The incident has since raised pressing concerns over the reliability of EV systems, the responsiveness of after-sales service, and the adequacy of consumer protection in Malaysia&rsquo;s growing electric vehicle market.
Emergency Braking Without Warning Causes Near-Misses
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/57b49380078498ee5f55d2fc40a44604508a7f078538b4ece5d28fc7f5554e9f" />
The owner, who was travelling with his wife and children, had made a brief detour to Kajang to attend a Hari Raya open house. While rejoining traffic on the expressway, the vehicle abruptly initiated an emergency stop. The driver stated that there was no prior indication of a malfunction &mdash; no audible warnings, dashboard alerts, or steering anomalies.
Once stopped, the vehicle became unresponsive. The dashboard displayed a &ldquo;Power System Failure&rdquo; message, and attempts to restart the car were unsuccessful. Trapped in the fast lane with moving traffic behind them, the family could only wait helplessly as oncoming vehicles swerved at high speeds to avoid a collision.
&ldquo;It could&rsquo;ve ended badly. Cars were coming fast, and some had to slam their brakes or swerve dangerously. I was stuck with my kids in the car &mdash; it was terrifying,&rdquo; the owner wrote in his Facebook post.
Swift Response from Authorities, But Towing Complicated by Locked Wheels
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/f7263dacd7412c3325fb320f88d5a048f9f10b2bbc90947fb6f5ebca56c7d849" />
Fortunately, the highway patrol team responded swiftly, arriving within ten minutes to secure the area and place cones around the stalled vehicle. However, the process of removing the car from the expressway proved far more difficult than anticipated.
An hour later, the insurance company&rsquo;s tow truck arrived, but technicians discovered that the car&rsquo;s wheels remained locked &mdash; even though it had been shifted into Neutral. This prevented conventional towing. As a workaround, the team resorted to using wheel dollies, which lift each tyre off the ground, allowing the vehicle to be rolled onto a flatbed tow truck.
Service Centre Closed Upon Arrival, No Support Offered
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/310466dcf1810eeb3eaa41d94083e3317dc5e4d419af74811bc895bfc7c3ea9c" />
The vehicle was transported to BYD&rsquo;s Glenmarie service centre, arriving at approximately 7pm &mdash; after regular working hours. With no staff available to receive the car or provide assistance, the family was left to make overnight arrangements on their own. The owner and his family stayed with relatives nearby, uncertain about the next steps.
The following morning, the situation did not improve. According to the owner, service centre personnel appeared unprepared to deal with the issue and offered little information beyond vague assurances. After repeated insistence that the matter be treated as a serious safety concern, technicians diagnosed the problem as a fault in the 12V battery &mdash; the smaller battery responsible for powering auxiliary systems.
The service team informed the owner that the 12V battery needed to be replaced, but the required component was not immediately available. Moreover, the service centre advised that further checks on the wheel-locking issue could only proceed after the battery was replaced.
He was also told that a courtesy car would not be provided as none were currently available, leaving him without transport for the foreseeable future.
Travel Plans Cancelled and Frustration Grows
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/0f0b9a705ecd6b75d06ab90dbe844f8aa125f06c7a6d07955a94e0dcde8a9598" />
As a result of the breakdown and delays, the owner was forced to cancel his trip to Penang and return to Melaka. The incident had already caused significant distress to his family, and the lack of clarity or urgency from BYD&rsquo;s service centres in Melaka where he purchased the vehicle and the Glenmarie outlet, which is looking into the current issue at hand.
To make matters worse, the vehicle, although only 10 months old, had already surpassed 20,000km in mileage, which meant the 12V battery was no longer covered under warranty. According to BYD Malaysia&rsquo;s warranty policy, the lead-acid 12V battery is protected for 1 year or 20,000km, whichever comes first. The main high-voltage EV battery, which powers the electric motor, carries a longer 8-year or 160,000km warranty, subject to a minimum 70% State of Health (SOH) standard.
Previous Wall Box Complaint Remains Unresolved
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/c8d2a388e6e9527601bd4fe896b5ff4897eae55b82332f8a0301fde13939be98" />
In his <a href="https://www.facebook.com/nurafifah.abdulrahim/posts/pfbid0Kptpjy8nrG15zzhc6fxeztDdTvFeeZGMPCBvUhzdJ2oarrfWnNU6MykyK6pfvdhzl">Facebook post</a>, the owner also revealed that this was not the first issue he had encountered with BYD. Two months prior, he had lodged a complaint regarding a malfunctioning wall box charger &mdash; the home charging station provided by the brand.
Despite repeated follow-ups, he claims that no technician has been dispatched to inspect the unit, and the only response he continues to receive is that &ldquo;the matter has been reported to the supplier.&rdquo; To date, the issue remains unresolved.
The owner stressed that his post was not intended to disparage BYD, but to raise awareness among current and prospective EV owners about potential safety risks and customer service challenges. &ldquo;I&rsquo;m not trying to shame anyone,&rdquo; he wrote. &ldquo;But something like this could happen to anyone &mdash; and it could be deadly.&rdquo;
He also called for greater coordination between BYD dealerships and service centres, particularly when it comes to resolving critical faults and providing consistent support.
Company Reaches Out Following Public Post
Since the viral post, the owner has confirmed that BYD Sime Darby &mdash; the local distributor for the Chinese automaker &mdash; has contacted him and is working to resolve the issue. The nature of the power system failure and wheel-locking problem is still under investigation at the time of writing.
Popular EV, But Teething Problems Remain
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/dc39fb60b0d7e9e50ce32390c48c4d4b86afe380ba68f579279d5f5c85a3f62e" />
The BYD Atto 3 was launched in Malaysia in December 2022 and has quickly become one of the country&rsquo;s best-selling electric vehicles. According to Road Transport Department (JPJ) data, a total of 6,563 units have been registered as of March 2025.
While BYD is known for its aggressive pricing and well-equipped models, this incident has sparked debate over the long-term reliability of EVs and the readiness of local support infrastructure to meet increasing demand.
While electric vehicles continue to gain dominance in the automotive market, not all manufacturers are fully sold on an all-EV future. Concerns remain &mdash; ranging from environmental impact and charging infrastructure to driving experience. Some carmakers, such as Toyota, have even voiced reservations, stating that certain EVs lack the emotional engagement of traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles. As a result, several brands are choosing to focus on hybrids or continuing ICE development alongside electrification.
Although Malaysia is gradually improving its EV infrastructure, significant gaps persist &mdash; and these pose ongoing challenges for both established and emerging brands. In particular, questions are being raised about the long-term reliability and consistency of vehicles imported from China. While China has demonstrated remarkable capability in high-tech manufacturing, concerns about quality control still linger in the minds of some consumers. As the saying goes, &ldquo;Made in China&rdquo; can mean many things &mdash; and for now, a degree of caution may still be warranted.

While BYD continues to investigate the issue, it raises an unsettling question — how many other vehicles might be at risk of suffering the same fate?
