Chat GPT is certainly playing a role in shaping the world of AI and natural language processing. It is a powerful tool for generating human-like text, which has a wide range of applications, from chatbots and virtual assistants to content creation and language translation.&nbsp;
However, it is important to remember that AI and machine learning technologies are developed and used by humans, and their impact on the world depends on how they are designed, implemented, and regulated.
Reportedly, a couple from Hong Kong is in the midst of a marital disagreement after the husband decided to name their recently born child with the help of Chat GPT, a language model, without consulting his wife.
According to sources, the father was fascinated by the technology and wanted to choose a unique name for his child. However, his wife was not happy which led her to ask online: &ldquo;Who is the daddy? Him or AI?&rdquo; The woman vented her frustrations on the online forum DiscussHK last month regarding her husband&rsquo;s actions.
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://r2.myc.my/6a4a63476b465002c6e4d90de96b171f557805a9f087fbd52daa2d53a7b2c956" alt="" width="343" height="193" />
She wrote in her post that her spouse went on ChatGPT and requested assistance with finding a Chinese name for their unborn son. The husband's query was to find a name that would reflect his aspirations for his child to be intelligent, attractive, tall, and fortunate. lucky.
The machine then suggested some names with auspicious meanings, for example, &ldquo;Zhiyu&rdquo;, which means &ldquo;wise universe&rdquo; and &ldquo;Meifeng&rdquo;, which means &ldquo;beautiful mountains&rdquo;.
The expectant father was not happy with these options, so he said: &ldquo;Any other suggestions?&rdquo;
When further prompted, the AI provided yet another list of 10 names, including "Ruichang", meaning good fortune and a bright future, and "Yiren", which implies harmony, happiness, and one who is well-liked by many.&rdquo;
Satisfied with the suggestions as "most (of them) sounded pretty good", the man then presented his wife with the names and asked her to pick one.
He ended up facing her ire instead.
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://r2.myc.my/efbc2a7232d56125fe10a1868f962d14c9f9aa6ffba1c0767ae94bbf5dc044fa" alt="" width="325" height="187" />
&ldquo;It&rsquo;s obvious he is too lazy to think! He doesn&rsquo;t even care about naming his child!&rdquo; she said.
The forum thread has since received 75,500 views and 50 replies, with mixed responses from people.
The incident has sparked a heated debate online, with many criticizing the father's actions and calling for greater involvement of both parents in important decisions such as naming a child. The couple has not yet commented on the matter, but it is believed that they are currently in counselling to work through their differences.&nbsp;
Although AI language models can offer initial ideas for baby names, it's crucial to complement them with thoughtful reflection and personal research before settling on a name.&nbsp;
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://r2.myc.my/4503b51a4c8f8f560f512d44bdb4f53c1cbcfa97fc53a3ed2a9ca58bd1751a62" alt="" width="399" height="608" />
Don't let Artificial Intelligence replace everything we do!&nbsp;
Yes, it's true that Chat GPT is an extraordinary tool that has revolutionized the way we approach information and communication. However, there are certain aspects of life that require a personal touch and cannot be entrusted to an algorithm. After all, while Chat GPT may be a master of words, it cannot replace the genuine warmth and affection that comes from speaking straight from the heart.
Take naming a baby, for instance. It's a task that demands careful consideration, creativity, and a deep understanding of what makes &lsquo;little you&rsquo; unique. Imagine having to name your baby using AI just because you are LAZY to do so.&nbsp;
<img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" src="https://r2.myc.my/fec2214d7b56674229faac8e19d3729b565e5c4de9c3c41d15ab8242f896214d" alt="" width="480" height="468" />
Thanks for the help Chat GPT, but 90% of the Malaysian population already own those names....(sigh)
Trusting this decision to a machine is like expecting a robot to choose the perfect outfit for a first date - it may get the job done, but it lacks that essential human touch that makes all the difference.&nbsp;
And let's not forget about anniversaries and special occasions. While Chat GPT can certainly help you come up with some clever ideas, nothing beats the feeling of planning something truly special for your loved one. Whether it's a surprise trip to a romantic destination or a thoughtful gift that shows just how much you care, these moments are meant to be cherished and remembered for years to come. So go ahead, let your heart be your guide - after all, there's no algorithm for love!
You wouldn't want to end up with a baby named 'Auto-Generated', now would you?
So, dear husbands, take note of this and step up your game... if you can name your cars with ease, naming a precious little human should be a piece of cake!

From 1 July 2025, Malaysia will implement a sweeping expansion of the Sales and Service Tax (SST), as part of the government&rsquo;s broader MADANI economic reform agenda. The overhaul, announced in Budget 2025 and detailed by Finance Minister II Datuk Seri Amir Hamzah Azizan, is aimed at enhancing national revenue, reducing fiscal deficits, and improving public services without placing excessive pressure on ordinary Malaysians.
The Ministry of Finance has said the move is designed to strengthen the country's fiscal position, broaden the tax base, and upgrade infrastructure and the social safety net. While some consumers are bracing for price hikes, analysts believe the impact will vary across sectors.
What&rsquo;s Staying Tax-Free (No changes)? 
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/79c27172b858d662193a9988c6ecc237fd3a3d68503dada61bd91b6c3822cc90" />
The good news for Malaysian households is that core staples and daily necessities remain zero-rated. This includes:
<ul>
<li>Unprocessed food: chicken, beef, fish, prawns, squid</li>
<li>Local produce: fruits and vegetables</li>
<li>Staples: rice, sugar, cooking oil, flour, pasta, noodles, milk</li>
<li>Essential goods: medicines, pet food, books, newspapers, journals</li>
<li>Construction inputs: cement, sand, stones</li>
<li>Agricultural supplies: fertilisers, pesticides, farming equipment</li>
<li>Medical devices and livestock feed</li>
</ul>
These items are protected to maintain affordability and protect vulnerable groups.
5% Sales Tax: Luxury Food and Industrial Goods 
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/2e9c195f5592d1198fb0fd40b05932be0c611242fda41a0db738983bc3bb6c93" />
A moderate 5% sales tax will now apply to a selection of luxury or imported products, reflecting their non-essential nature. Among the revised or newly taxed items in this tier:
<ul>
<li>King crab, salmon, cod</li>
<li>Truffles and imported strawberries</li>
<li>Essential oils and silk fabrics</li>
<li>Industrial machinery</li>
</ul>
Items already in the 5% bracket and unchanged include abalone, lobster, quinoa, cheese, fruit jams, and smartphones.
10% Sales Tax: High-End Goods and Collectibles 
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/834ff1c3e41f102895c36e3d47a35916f461b7a92500f9d4a9c1dfd840c52eca" />
The 10% bracket targets premium and luxury categories. Revised items include:
<ul>
<li>Racing bicycles</li>
<li>Antique and hand-painted artworks</li>
<li>Tungsten scrap waste</li>
</ul>
Caviar, shark fins, alcoholic beverages, cigarettes, cigars, and leather products remain taxed at 10%.
Expanded Service Tax: What&rsquo;s Affected?
The service tax, previously limited in scope, has now been extended to six new categories, with rates of 6% or 8%, depending on the sector. Notably, the government has built in exemptions and grace periods to ease the transition, particularly for small businesses and ongoing contracts.
<ol>
<li> Construction Services (6%) </li>
</ol>
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/0781a862147735e98fb447d6211da1bc8b7a1f673a53f9f0dc23fc48eafc91d4" />
Tax applies to construction work on infrastructure, commercial, and industrial buildings exceeding RM1.5 million in annual revenue. However, residential projects and public housing are exempt. Business-to-business (B2B) services and contracts signed before July 1 will enjoy a 12-month exemption.
<ol start="2">
<li> Financial Services (8%) </li>
</ol>
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/7aad389470a344b4921fa173860faa58ff29bdb0d8e454bdaa0b7d6773238e26" />
Fee-based or commission-driven services, such as loan processing, will be taxed. However, exemptions include:
<ul>
<li>Basic banking and Islamic financing</li>
<li>Capital markets and foreign exchange gains</li>
<li>Outward remittances</li>
<li>Shariah-compliant structures</li>
<li>Services by Bursa Malaysia and Labuan-based institutions</li>
</ul>
<ol start="3">
<li> Private Healthcare (6%) </li>
</ol>
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/9d04d8a67d8283b10c78d09ae54444a042cdda7dc68f6bb707e40a0187ab412a" />
Applies only to non-Malaysians. Malaysian citizens are fully exempt, including for traditional and complementary treatments such as Malay, Chinese, Indian, Islamic medicine, chiropractic care, and physiotherapy.
<ol start="4">
<li> Private Education (6%) </li>
</ol>
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/5d6bbac4f3294df37ac6cea5eda7139c3ce24131e9f8302fd3ac1e2fa641d494" />
Only affects:
<ul>
<li>Private preschools, primary, and secondary schools charging over RM60,000 annually per student</li>
<li>Higher education institutions for international students</li>
</ul>
Malaysians and persons with disabilities are exempt.
<ol start="5">
<li> Beauty Services (8%) </li>
</ol>
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/4a6975b08f4460e98298a32f97b71f1fb05daf98a80973dda3990dd6d3dede35" />
Includes facials, hairdressing, tattoos, body slimming, and similar services provided by businesses earning over RM500,000 annually.
<ol start="6">
<li> Rental and Leasing (8%) </li>
</ol>
Imposed on companies with revenue over RM500,000 per year from leasing or rental services. Exemptions include:
<ul>
<li>Residential property rentals</li>
<li>Reading materials</li>
<li>Financial leases</li>
<li>Tangible assets located overseas</li>
<li>MSMEs and B2B transactions</li>
<li>Existing contracts (12-month grace period)</li>
</ul>
Business and Market Response
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/3a14e8e0b78dbd1517971a48fe904e1bcff718e67cf3105ab5326ae833557064" />
Despite consumer concerns over potential price hikes, analysts from CIMB Securities and Hong Leong Investment Bank have suggested the expanded SST will have a limited impact on inflation and broader economic performance.
CIMB warned of potential margin pressure for consumer-facing businesses, especially those selling discretionary or luxury goods, as companies may absorb part of the cost increases to maintain affordability. Conversely, essential goods manufacturers and retailers are expected to weather the changes better, buoyed by consistent demand.
HLIB, meanwhile, maintains that sectors such as construction, banking, and healthcare are largely insulated due to cost pass-through capabilities and strong regional competitiveness.
The Finance Ministry projects inflation to remain within a manageable range of 2.0% to 3.5%, thanks to the targeted nature of the revised tax framework.
A Grace Period for Compliance
To ease the transition, the government has announced a non-punitive grace period until the end of 2025, during which no enforcement action will be taken against businesses making a genuine effort to comply.
Further clarity is expected in the coming weeks, as the Finance Ministry and Royal Malaysian Customs Department will issue detailed guidelines, regulations, and FAQs to help businesses and consumers navigate the updated SST regime.
While Malaysians brace for the SST expansion, it is clear the government has opted for a targeted, strategic approach &mdash; exempting essentials while taxing luxury goods and services more likely consumed by higher-income groups. Businesses will need to adapt quickly, but with transitional support and careful policy design, the impact on everyday Malaysians may be less severe than feared.

From beauty salons to imported fruit, the revised tax regime reshapes daily spending — but essentials remain untouched.

&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/4392edd821907a371841b79829eebe1f941e3167e02131e30afe0edf9817e78e" />
B.I, born Kim Han-bin, is a South Korean rapper, singer-songwriter, and producer celebrated for his introspective lyricism and genre-blending musicality. He first rose to prominence as the leader and main songwriter of iKON, a boy group formed under YG Entertainment. The group&rsquo;s debut in 2015 with Welcome Back was a commercial success, producing chart-topping hits like &ldquo;My Type,&rdquo; &ldquo;Rhythm Ta,&rdquo; and the emotional ballad &ldquo;Apology.&rdquo; B.I quickly established himself as a standout in the industry thanks to his songwriting prowess and commanding stage presence.
<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/blSCDrx0CDA" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
After parting ways with iKON in 2019, B.I embarked on a solo career that has been marked by both creative freedom and critical acclaim. His first full-length solo album, Waterfall (2021), and subsequent projects like COSMOS (2021) and Love or Loved (L.O.L) series (2022&ndash;2023), showcased a more vulnerable, reflective side of the artist. Tracks like &ldquo;Illa Illa,&rdquo; &ldquo;BTBT&rdquo; (featuring DeVita and Soulja Boy), and &ldquo;Got It Like That&rdquo; further solidified his position as a compelling solo act on the global stage.
B.I has received several accolades throughout his career, both with iKON and as a solo artist. Notably, he won Songwriter of the Year at the 2018 Melon Music Awards for his work on iKON&rsquo;s mega-hit &ldquo;Love Scenario,&rdquo; which also earned Song of the Year at the 2018 Mnet Asian Music Awards (MAMA).
Beyond music, B.I has continued to connect with fans worldwide through sold-out tours, humanitarian efforts with organizations like World Vision, and consistent engagement with his growing international fanbase. His journey&mdash;from idol group leader to introspective soloist&mdash;has been a testament to his resilience, artistry, and evolution in the ever-shifting landscape of K-pop.

B.I Returns To Kuala Lumpur This September For ‘The Last Parade’ 2025 Asia Tour

The nation was left reeling in grief on 9 June following the horrific crash along the East-West Highway (Jalan Raya Timur-Barat) near Tasik Banding, Gerik, which claimed the lives of 15 Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI) students. The fatal accident involved a tour bus carrying 42 students and a Perodua Alza multi-purpose vehicle (MPV), leaving 33 others injured, including both vehicle drivers.

Dashcam Footage Emerges as Crucial Evidence
Police have confirmed that dashcam footage from a vehicle travelling near the crash site has been handed over and is now central to the investigation. The 38-second clip, which has since gone viral online, shows the bus speeding along the highway, overtaking another vehicle, and then losing control before toppling onto its side and crashing into a guardrail. The footage ends with the bus colliding with the Alza MPV behind.
<iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Freel%2F681115328050549&amp;width=500&amp;show_text=true&amp;height=671&amp;appId" width="500" height="671" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
Perak Police Chief Datuk Noor Hisam Nordin said the dashcam footage was submitted voluntarily, and officers will soon record a statement from the owner. &ldquo;We believe this video can help determine critical factors such as the bus&rsquo;s speed and road conditions at the time,&rdquo; he said during a press briefing at Raja Permaisuri Bainun Hospital.
He confirmed initial observations suggest the bus was travelling at high speed and the front of the vehicle was penetrated by the metal railing upon impact. This would explain why victims seated on the left side of the bus bore the brunt of the collision. &ldquo;Most injuries were to the left shoulder. The bus landed on its left, causing passengers to be thrown sideways,&rdquo; Noor Hisam said.
Survivors Describe Terrifying Moments Before the Crash
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/89db6abc8cde7b44109e09d51efb6f173b8372e95eb19d4be53dcda9fa93554c" />
Among the survivors was 22-year-old student Nur Irdina Huri, who recounted the chilling moments before the bus overturned. &ldquo;The bus was going downhill fast, swaying dangerously. I wasn&rsquo;t asleep and could smell something burning. Everything happened so fast,&rdquo; she told reporters from her hospital bed.
Nur Irdina, a student of Early Childhood Education, managed to escape through a small gap in the wreckage. She suffered waist injuries and a sprained ankle. &ldquo;It was pitch black and chaotic. I couldn&rsquo;t help my friends &ndash; I couldn&rsquo;t even see them.&rdquo;
Another student who lost her life in the accident was 22-year-old Wan Nur Suhaila Wan Muhammad. Her brother, Wan Muhammad Sham, 31, said she had returned home to celebrate Aidiladha with all nine siblings. &ldquo;She cooked mee celup for the entire family before heading back to campus. None of us expected that to be our final meal together,&rdquo; he said.
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/c7a16f10b31b4c9ee417de474077aec27c88c7b17ccc7fa2ea9e4582dbc042e8" />
In a separate conversation with a UPSI student, she shared that one of her friends had also encountered issues with a bus service. Following news of the UPSI crash, the driver of that bus chose to cancel the trip, reportedly unwilling to take any risks after the tragic incident.
She also mentioned that several passengers on the crashed bus had sensed something was amiss earlier in the journey. However, none of the students dared to raise their concerns with the driver, fearing he might react aggressively if confronted.
Road Conditions and Human Error in Focus
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/0b80634a58c57c567fa9a86b826345885ac4913ec552a5ca59d0d235040b703e" />
The crash occurred around 1 AM in wet and dark conditions, on a downhill stretch with poor visibility and no road markings. Noor Hisam, who visited the site himself, confirmed the road was unlit and steep. &ldquo;There are no clear lines on the road. It was raining earlier, and everything was dark,&rdquo; he said.
He also noted that the bus narrowly avoided plunging into a ravine on the other side of the guardrail. &ldquo;Most of the victims were found near a ditch beside the railing. Survivors had to crawl out of the wreckage,&rdquo; he added.
Police have yet to conclude whether the cause was due to human error, technical failure, or road conditions. Statements from survivors, forensic analysis, and dashcam footage will all contribute to the final report.
Authorities and Agencies Respond

Transport Minister Anthony Loke confirmed that the Land Public Transport Agency (APAD) has issued a show-cause letter to the bus company involved. Meanwhile, the Road Transport Department (JPJ) is conducting a Safety Inspection and Audit (JISA) on the vehicle and its operator, under the Road Transport Act 1987 and the Land Public Transport Act 2010.
&ldquo;Strict action will be taken once investigations are complete. Every life lost is a tragedy not just for the families, but for the nation,&rdquo; said Loke in a statement on social media.
Sultan of Perak, Sultan Nazrin Shah, has also weighed in, calling for immediate preventive action. His Royal Highness stressed the need to address weaknesses in road safety laws and enforcement to avoid such tragedies in future.
Community Mourns, Support Pours In

The Malaysian Association of Tour Agencies (MATA) labelled the accident a &ldquo;national emergency&rdquo; requiring swift government response. Similarly, the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) urged public transport companies to improve driver safety and adopt better occupational safety measures.
UPSI Vice-Chancellor Prof Datuk Dr Md Amin Md Taff said the university is offering logistical and emotional support to the victims&rsquo; families. Each affected family has been assigned a liaison officer to coordinate assistance. &ldquo;We are helping with accommodation and any other necessary support,&rdquo; he said.
The Ministry of Higher Education (KPT) has also announced that the next of kin of the deceased will receive RM2,000 in initial financial assistance, along with an additional RM1,000 in disaster relief funds to help with funeral arrangements.
Farewell to the Fallen

A convoy of hearses carrying 13 of the deceased students left the Raja Permaisuri Bainun Hospital in Ipoh at around 8.55 PM en route to Jertih, Terengganu, where the victims&rsquo; funerals were held. The other two bodies were transported from Gerik Hospital earlier in the evening.
Funeral prayers were conducted at Masjid Hadhari before the students were laid to rest in their respective hometown cemeteries. UPSI also dispatched a contingent of 160 students from Tanjong Malim to Jertih to pay their final respects to their fallen peers.
As the country continues to mourn, the public and authorities alike are calling for accountability, reform, and remembrance for the lives lost on what was meant to be a safe journey back to campus after a festive holiday.

EXO&rsquo;s renowned main vocalist and accomplished actor, Doh Kyung-soo&mdash;better known as D.O.&mdash;has officially announced the Kuala Lumpur stop of his first-ever solo concert tour. Titled 2025 DOH KYUNG SOO ASIA CONCERT TOUR &lt;DO it! in Malaysia&gt;, the event promises to be a landmark moment for fans, marking a significant milestone in his solo music career.
D.O.'s last visit to Malaysia in 2024 left a deep impression on local fans. The Bloom Asia fan concert was a heartwarming showcase of his humility, talent, and magnetic stage presence. This time, however, he&rsquo;s raising the bar. The DO it! tour marks D.O.'s transition into large-scale solo concerts, offering fans a richer, full-length musical journey that reflects his evolution as both an artist and performer.

Doh Kyung-soo rose to prominence as the main vocalist of EXO, one of K-pop&rsquo;s most influential boy bands. He played a crucial role in shaping the group&rsquo;s distinctive sound, contributing to numerous chart-topping hits like Growl, Call Me Baby, Monster, and Love Shot. His warm, resonant vocal tone quickly earned him a dedicated following both within and outside the EXO-L fandom.
Venturing beyond group activities, D.O. made waves as a solo artist with the release of his debut mini-album Empathy in 2021. His successive solo works&mdash;Expectation in 2023 and Blossom in 2024&mdash;further showcased his versatility, blending elements of R&amp;B, folk, and acoustic pop. Singles like Rose, Popcorn, and his most recent ballad Snowfall at Night (밤에 내린 눈) have cemented his reputation as one of the most emotive soloists in the K-pop scene.

In recognition of his vocal and artistic achievements, he was named Best R&amp;B Male Artist at the 2024 Korea Grand Music Awards&mdash;further proof of his wide-ranging appeal and artistic credibility.
While many know him as a singer, D.O. has also established himself as one of Korea&rsquo;s most respected idol-actors. He made his acting debut in It&rsquo;s Okay, That&rsquo;s Love (2014), a performance that won him praise for his emotional range. He went on to appear in successful films such as My Annoying Brother, Swing Kids, and The Moon, as well as the hit TV dramas Bad Prosecutor and 100 Days My Prince, the latter becoming one of the highest-rated cable dramas in Korean history.

EXO D.O. Unveils Details Of His 2025 Asia Solo Tour: DO it! To Hit Kuala Lumpur This August

Malaysia is reeling from one of the most devastating road tragedies in recent memory following a fatal collision involving a bus carrying university students and a multi-purpose vehicle (MPV) in the early hours of Monday, 9 June 2025. The accident occurred near Tasik Banding along the East-West Highway (Jalan Raya Timur-Barat) in Banun, Gerik, Perak, claiming 15 lives and injuring dozens more.
The victims were students of Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI), returning to campus after celebrating the Hari Raya Aidiladha holidays. What was supposed to be a routine journey back to continue their academic pursuits turned into a national tragedy, sending shockwaves through the community and prompting an outpouring of grief across the country.
A Deadly Nighttime Journey

Seramai 15 individu disahkan maut dalam kemalangan ngeri melibatkan sebuah bas yang membawa pelajar Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris (UPSI) di Jalan Jeli-Grik berhampiran Tasik Banding awal pagi tadi. SUMBER: Video tular <a href="https://t.co/zM7EOPReNq">pic.twitter.com/zM7EOPReNq</a>
&mdash; Buletin TV3 (@BuletinTV3) <a href="https://twitter.com/BuletinTV3/status/1931864147719020684?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 9, 2025</a></blockquote>

<script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

According to reports from the Civil Defence Force&rsquo;s Hulu Perak operations control centre (PKOD APM), the emergency call from Hospital Gerik was received at approximately 1.10am, shortly after the accident occurred. The bus, which had been chartered privately by the students, was en route from Jerteh, Terengganu, to the UPSI main campus in Tanjong Malim, Perak. It was carrying 48 passengers, primarily students who had gathered in Jerteh following the festive break.
The collision also involved a Perodua Alza MPV, believed to be travelling in the same direction. Both vehicles were headed west when, for reasons still under investigation, the bus overturned and the Alza skidded off the road into a nearby ditch.
Casualties and Injuries: A Sobering Toll
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/c57555c65998b4b861caa8820c190410275ae4a9892593fc2cb48388bec203dd" />
Out of the 48 individuals involved, 13 were pronounced dead at the scene, while two more succumbed to their injuries in the hospital. The severity of the crash has left many others in serious condition. Initial assessments revealed seven people in the red zone (critical condition), 20 in the yellow zone (semi-critical), and 16 in the green zone (minor injuries) at Gerik Hospital.
Two injured female students were among the first to be brought in for emergency care, one reportedly suffering a fractured arm and the other sustaining head injuries. Medical teams acted quickly to stabilise the injured, many of whom were trapped or ejected from the bus during the accident.
Emergency Rescue Efforts Amid Wreckage
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/e1967ca76c9fea440d13874a4b526f351055f8e3e15b7f0b0aa88c9f3fc90047" />
Perak Fire and Rescue Department Director Sayani Saidon confirmed that the rescue operations were complex and urgent. Upon arrival, responders found the bus overturned and severely damaged. The operation commander led a technical &ldquo;size-up&rdquo; of the situation before implementing the &lsquo;saver&rsquo; concept&mdash;a strategy that prioritises creating access to victims in confined spaces.
Hydraulic cutting tools were deployed to open the rear section of the bus and allow responders to reach trapped individuals. Six victims were found still inside the wreckage and were carefully extracted before being handed over to Ministry of Health (KKM) medical teams. Others had managed to crawl out or were thrown from the vehicle during the impact. All deceased were later handed over to the police for further action.
Multiple agencies worked together to transport the injured and deceased using Emergency Medical Rescue Services (EMRS), KKM ambulances, and units from the Civil Defence Force. The professionalism and urgency of the rescue teams prevented what could have been an even greater loss of life.
Students Had Privately Chartered the Bus
In the aftermath of the tragedy, Professor Dr Norkhalid Salimin, UPSI&rsquo;s Deputy Vice-Chancellor for Student Affairs and Alumni, confirmed that the students had arranged for a private charter bus to return to campus after the holiday period. He noted that they had travelled together from Jerteh, having reunited with their families during the Aidiladha celebrations.
&ldquo;The students had taken the initiative to organise their own transport back to campus. It was meant to be a straightforward return from the festive break,&rdquo; he said.
The university has since mobilised its staff to assist the families of victims, while also coordinating with authorities to obtain accurate information and provide necessary support, including counselling and logistical assistance.
UPSI and the Nation in Mourning
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/09c39ee6aa27034defa92203843e245495f98351c8e576c91b9eaf7b22109647" />
Vice-Chancellor of UPSI, Professor Datuk Dr Md Amin Md Taff, expressed the university&rsquo;s grief in a somber Facebook post, writing simply: &ldquo;UPSI is in mourning.&rdquo; No official press release has been issued yet, but it is understood that the university is working closely with families, students, and law enforcement agencies to manage the aftermath.
Students, alumni, and faculty alike have taken to social media to share their condolences and express their heartbreak over the sudden and tragic loss of young lives brimming with potential. The sense of sorrow is especially deep among those who personally knew the victims.
National Leaders Respond with Support and Reflection
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/38643f86be3c5ef59d1da1b73b8ad056037be60c4b4a0ef4dcc2be4d3abf5af5" />
The scale and suddenness of the tragedy prompted immediate responses from national leaders. Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim expressed his deepest sympathies to the families affected and underscored the importance of prioritising road safety.
&ldquo;I have instructed the Ministry of Higher Education to coordinate immediate support for the victims&rsquo; families. These tragic incidents remind us that no journey is worth risking lives. We must always be careful and never rush,&rdquo; he said in a Facebook statement.
Higher Education Minister Datuk Seri Zambry Abd Kadir also conveyed his condolences and committed to ensuring that all necessary assistance would be extended. &ldquo;We mourn the loss of young, promising lives. My ministry is working to assist the families in every way possible. Further updates will be provided as more information becomes available,&rdquo; he said.
Investigation Underway to Determine Cause
Authorities are now conducting a detailed investigation to determine the cause of the collision. Factors such as driver fatigue, mechanical failure, and road conditions are expected to be examined thoroughly. The East-West Highway, particularly the stretch near Tasik Banding, is known for its challenging terrain and winding roads&mdash;a factor which has previously contributed to other incidents.
This tragedy adds to a growing concern over road safety in Malaysia, particularly involving long-distance overnight transport. Advocacy groups and the public have renewed calls for stricter safety standards, better enforcement of transport regulations, and improved oversight of privately chartered vehicles used by students and the public.
A Nation Grieves as Lives Are Remembered
The heartbreaking loss of 15 students&mdash;young individuals with hopes, ambitions, and dreams&mdash;has left an indelible mark on the nation. As families grieve and classmates grapple with the sudden void left behind, Malaysia unites in mourning. Candlelight vigils, religious prayers, and commemorations are expected in the coming days.
The tragedy near Tasik Banding will not be forgotten. It serves as a painful reminder of the fragility of life and the importance of road safety. As investigations unfold and recovery efforts continue, the country holds its breath, hoping that lessons are learned and that such sorrow may never be repeated.

While the Higher Education Ministry coordinates aid for the victims’ families, the cause of the accident remains under investigation.

Tragedy On The East-West Highway: 15 UPSI Students Killed In Overturned Bus Crash Near Tasik Banding

In a move reminiscent of his controversial first-term policies, US President Donald Trump has signed a new presidential proclamation enforcing sweeping travel restrictions on citizens from 19 countries. The directive, which comes into effect at 12:01 a.m. EDT on 9 June 2025, is framed as a national security measure but has already sparked intense backlash from human rights groups, refugee advocates, and foreign governments.
Full Ban on 12 Nations, Partial Restrictions on 7 Others
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/706c0716f0472de656970cd7aaee140468455728f1b4a08591e5f1c408765dd3" />
The proclamation imposes a complete travel ban on nationals from 12 countries, most of which are either Muslim-majority or developing nations. Citizens from these countries will be prohibited from entering the United States unless they qualify for a narrow set of exemptions &mdash; such as dual citizens travelling on another country&rsquo;s passport, certain athletes participating in major sporting events, or select Afghan nationals affiliated with the US government.
The 12 countries facing a full ban are:
<ul>
<li>Afghanistan</li>
<li>Myanmar</li>
<li>Chad</li>
<li>Republic of the Congo</li>
<li>Equatorial Guinea</li>
<li>Eritrea</li>
<li>Haiti</li>
<li>Iran</li>
<li>Libya</li>
<li>Somalia</li>
<li>Sudan</li>
<li>Yemen</li>
</ul>
Meanwhile, seven additional countries &mdash; Burundi, Cuba, Laos, Sierra Leone, Togo, Turkmenistan, and Venezuela &mdash; face partial restrictions, affecting select visa categories such as business (B-1), tourism (B-2), student (F and M), and exchange (J) visas.
Justifications Rooted in Security Concerns
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
"We cannot have open migration from any country where we cannot safely and reliably vet and screen... That is why today I am signing a new executive order placing travel restrictions on countries including Yemen, Somalia, Haiti, Libya, and numerous others." &ndash;President Trump <a href="https://t.co/ER7nGM4TO2">pic.twitter.com/ER7nGM4TO2</a>
&mdash; The White House (@WhiteHouse) <a href="https://twitter.com/WhiteHouse/status/1930412786271547485?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 4, 2025</a></blockquote>

<script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

In a video statement released on X (formerly Twitter), Trump defended the ban by pointing to "deficiencies in vetting procedures" in the listed countries, such as weak ID verification systems, lack of criminal background checks, and high visa overstay rates.
&ldquo;We cannot have open migration from any country where we cannot safely and reliably vet and screen those who seek to enter the United States,&rdquo; he stated. Trump also referenced a recent violent incident in Boulder, Colorado &mdash; where an Egyptian national allegedly attacked a crowd with a petrol bomb &mdash; as a justification for tightening entry requirements. Notably, Egypt is not among the countries listed in the ban.
According to the White House, the countries subjected to full restrictions were determined to present a &ldquo;very high risk&rdquo; to US national security. A January 2025 executive order directed the State Department, Department of Homeland Security (DHS), and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence to assess which nations posed &ldquo;hostile attitudes&rdquo; toward the United States.
The resulting report cited several issues including:
<ul>
<li>Inadequate identity verification and document issuance systems</li>
<li>Inability or unwillingness to repatriate nationals with expired visas</li>
<li>High rates of visa overstays</li>
<li>Terrorist activity or lack of cooperation on counterterrorism</li>
</ul>
International Response: Anger, Retaliation, and Dialogue
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/ee9e3e408e4b2c7f0291b8976a293fe045d8525e4ef73174f314ca41d8bd5360" /> Left: Dahir Hassan Abdi ; Right: Diosdado Cabello
The announcement has triggered swift reactions across the globe. The African Union expressed concern that the ban could severely damage educational exchange programmes, business cooperation, and diplomatic ties.
Chad retaliated almost immediately by suspending the issuance of visas to US citizens, while officials in the Republic of the Congo condemned their inclusion as a &ldquo;misunderstanding&rdquo;. &ldquo;Congo is neither a terrorist state nor known for any terrorist affiliations,&rdquo; said government spokesperson Thierry Moungalla.
Somalia offered a more conciliatory tone. Ambassador Dahir Hassan Abdi affirmed Mogadishu&rsquo;s willingness to engage in dialogue with Washington to address security concerns.
Meanwhile, Venezuelan Interior Minister Diosdado Cabello warned nationals against travelling to the US, describing it as "a big risk for anybody". He accused the US of persecuting Venezuelans &ldquo;for no reason&rdquo;, reflecting the deepening rift between Caracas and Washington.
Domestic Backlash: Critics Say Ban Targets Minorities 
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/a6d68c0d7e3a64e9a9807abe9519e9d77c5082cc7ecf8c1e8fe1d6970aae8a85" />
Domestically, the policy has reignited accusations of racism and Islamophobia. Critics have drawn parallels to Trump&rsquo;s 2017 &ldquo;Muslim Ban&rdquo;, which was widely condemned but eventually upheld by the Supreme Court in 2018. That ban was rescinded by President Joe Biden in 2021, who called it &ldquo;a stain on our national conscience&rdquo;.
Advocacy groups such as the International Refugee Assistance Project and Oxfam America argue that the latest ban, much like its predecessor, is more about political posturing than genuine security concerns. &ldquo;This policy is not about national security &mdash; it&rsquo;s about sowing division and vilifying communities that are seeking safety and opportunity in the United States,&rdquo; said Abby Maxman, Oxfam&rsquo;s president.
Laurie Ball Cooper, vice president for US legal programmes at the Refugee Assistance Project, said the proclamation fits a broader trend of the Trump administration &ldquo;weaponising immigration laws&rdquo; to target racial and religious minorities.
Afghan and Haitian Communities Hit Especially Hard
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/1732a1649aea6cb5dac170da10ac57e9832945e0d94402b18f0070c1b4b31c2e" />
The inclusion of Afghanistan has sparked outrage among resettlement advocates, especially given the country&rsquo;s long-standing ties with the US military. Over 14,000 Afghan refugees were resettled in the US in the year leading up to September 2024. The new ban includes exceptions for Afghans on Special Immigrant Visas (SIVs), but critics argue that it nonetheless betrays America&rsquo;s commitments.
&ldquo;To include Afghanistan &mdash; a nation whose people stood alongside American service members for 20 years &mdash; is a moral disgrace,&rdquo; said Shawn VanDiver, president of the #AfghanEvac coalition.
Haiti, which was not included in Trump&rsquo;s original travel ban, is now listed due to high numbers of illegal entries and visa overstays. The Caribbean nation is currently grappling with spiralling violence, economic instability, and the virtual collapse of state authority &mdash; factors that continue to drive large-scale migration.
What Comes Next?
The proclamation allows for the list of affected countries to be updated or revised based on future assessments. Existing US visas issued before 9 June 2025 will not be revoked. However, travellers from the listed countries with pending applications may now face rejection or delays.
As the United States heads into an election year, immigration is once again set to become a deeply polarising issue. Trump&rsquo;s latest move is expected to rally his base &mdash; but it also risks reigniting legal challenges, diplomatic rifts, and widespread protests reminiscent of 2017.
For now, nationals from 19 countries face a stark new reality: entering the United States has never been more difficult.

While Malaysians are currently exempt, the ban effective 9 June targets several African, Middle Eastern, and Asian nations.
