Remember the excitement of field trips during our school days? Unfortunately, in Thailand, that joy turned to tragedy when a school bus accident claimed the lives of 22 students and three teachers, according to local authorities.
The bus was transporting students and teachers from Wat Khao Praya Sangkharam School in Uthai Thani province to Bangkok when it crashed and caught fire on Phahon Yothin Road at around 12:30 PM yesterday, October 1.
The incident occurred while the bus was on its way to an exhibition at the Electricity Generating Authority of Thailand in Nonthaburi, following an earlier visit to History Park in Ayutthaya.

The bus was the second in a convoy of three.
The Bangkok Post has reported the fatalities, although the identities of those who lost their lives have not yet been officially disclosed. There were 38 students and six teachers on board, with the students ranging from kindergarten to Mathayom 3, equivalent to fourth grade in Thailand.
Fire Caused After Bus Crashed Into A Barrier
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/1a4e5fcf6f26d08094f2d655f4cb3089ea41d5114b3ec906f6f15a29508efe84" />
A rescuer at the scene reported that the bus caught fire after one of its tyres burst while travelling on the highway, leading to a collision with a barrier. The flames quickly engulfed the vehicle, resulting in extensive damage.&nbsp;
Photos released by the Thailand Fire &amp; Rescue Department showed completely charred seats and a severely damaged exterior. Firefighters were dispatched to aid the survivors, many of whom were in a state of shock.
Driver Initially Fled The Scene &amp; Investigations Are Ongoing
In a statement from acting national police chief Pol Lt Gen Kittirat Phunphet, it was confirmed that the bus driver, who had turned off his mobile phone, surrendered at a police station after fleeing to Ang Thong. He is currently being held at Khu Khot police station in Pathum Thani.&nbsp;
The driver, identified by authorities as Saman Chanput, has been charged with reckless driving resulting in death and injury, failing to assist others, and neglecting to report the accident. During questioning, he explained that he was driving normally until the bus lost balance due to a problem with the front right tyre. This caused it to collide with another vehicle and scrape against a concrete highway barrier, which ignited sparks that led to the fire.&nbsp;
Regarding his decision to flee, he admitted that panic took over. Before running away, he attempted to retrieve a fire extinguisher from another bus on the same trip but was unable to extinguish the flames.

The police are currently investigating whether the bus company adhered to all safety regulations. Preliminary reports suggest that the gas-powered bus may have had a leak. Authorities from both the police and the Department of Land Transport plan to determine if the gas installation was original or a later modification and whether it complied with safety standards.&nbsp;
In a statement to Thai PBS, the bus company owner, Songwit Chinnaboot, claimed that the bus underwent safety inspections twice a year as mandated and that the gas cylinders had passed all safety tests. He also expressed his intention to provide compensation to the victim&rsquo;s families to the best of his ability.&nbsp;
At present, three students remain hospitalized, with two in serious condition. Among them, a 7-year-old girl has sustained burns to her face, and surgeons are working diligently to preserve her eyesight.
Thai PM Left In Tears From The Incident

In a heartfelt response to the tragic bus fire that claimed the lives of 22 students and three teachers, Prime Minister Paetongtarn Shinawatra expressed her condolences to the bereaved families and promised that the government would cover medical expenses and provide financial aid to both victims and their families.
"I am aware of the bus fire incident from Uthai Thani, which was carrying students on a field trip to Bangkok and resulted in an accident on Vibhavadi Rangsit Road, causing fatalities and injuries," she stated.
During a visit to Pat Rangsit Hospital, where she met with survivors, she was visibly moved by their stories, reinforcing her commitment to supporting those affected by this tragedy.

A government doctor based in Melaka has announced her resignation after receiving a sudden directive from the Ministry of Health (MOH) requiring her to report for duty at a maternal and child health clinic in Beluran, Sabah, more than 1,600 kilometres away, by 2 October 2025.
In a post that quickly went viral on Threads, the doctor expressed her devastation and disbelief over the decision, describing how it had derailed her plans to settle down with her family.
&ldquo;I&rsquo;m married with children. We just bought a house and are planning to settle down. Now you just tell me to go? Who&rsquo;s going to care for my children?&rdquo; she wrote.
Her post concluded with a biting remark:
&ldquo;Thank you, MOH, for making this decision. It has helped me make mine too &mdash; I&rsquo;m resigning.&rdquo; She also added the hashtag #ForThePeople, a pointed nod to the civil service slogan &ldquo;Berkhidmat Untuk Rakyat&rdquo; (Serving the People) &mdash; now used with bitter irony by many public servants expressing frustration with the system.
Viral Response: &ldquo;Doctors Aren&rsquo;t Robots&rdquo;
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/0530f0d8db194ca809b152670c9973c94d40caeadb78fa7a4fe6c89eae58acbc" />
The post sparked immediate reactions from fellow healthcare workers, many of whom flooded the comments with words of support and shared their own painful experiences of rigid, faraway postings. Many described the system as outdated, unsympathetic, and deeply disconnected from the realities of family life.
&ldquo;Doctors aren&rsquo;t robots. We have families too,&rdquo; one user wrote. &ldquo;One letter and you expect her to fly across the sea, just like that? This system lacks humanity,&rdquo; another added.
The post, though later deleted, had amassed over 3,500 likes and close to 2,000 comments, reflecting widespread resonance among medical professionals who have long struggled with similar transfer policies.
No Room for Negotiation
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/d2f7ff07fae0f348d696df87d0a3904d844eb9ee89149ccdbe741e687cd3e164" />
The Ministry&rsquo;s official letter, dated 4 July, stated that &ldquo;KKM reserves the right to determine placement decisions for the benefit of service.&rdquo; Under Malaysia&rsquo;s public healthcare policy, government doctors are required to serve at least two years in the public sector, often in rural or underserved locations.
While such deployments are a longstanding part of public service, critics argue that the system rarely takes into account individual circumstances &mdash; especially for those with children, dual-career households, or financial commitments.
In this case, the doctor said she had no opportunity to appeal or discuss the decision. The lack of flexibility, she noted, left her with no choice but to walk away.
Shared Struggles from the Field
Her story is far from unique. Healthcare workers across Malaysia shared similar accounts &mdash; from one medical officer who had to quit her job to accompany her spouse on a posting to Sabah, to others who have had to run two separate households just to make things work.
The emotional toll, cost of long-distance travel, and months or years spent apart from family have long been the silent price of serving in Malaysia&rsquo;s healthcare system &mdash; particularly for East Malaysia postings, which often involve travel by air and limited infrastructure.

A Call for Compassion in Public Service
While some defended the necessity of rural placements to serve underserved communities, many agreed the system is overdue for reform. The current structure, they argued, lacks the human touch needed in a profession already fraught with high stress, long hours, and burnout.
The doctor&rsquo;s final words &mdash; and the widespread support she received &mdash; reflect a growing sentiment: that a commitment to serve should not come at the cost of personal well-being or family stability.
&ldquo;Serving the people doesn&rsquo;t mean sacrificing everything. We need empathy, not just efficiency,&rdquo; one commenter wrote.
Here&rsquo;s some of the comments:

Balancing the System
This case underscores a critical challenge in Malaysia&rsquo;s healthcare system &mdash; how to fairly distribute medical personnel across the country while also retaining qualified, motivated staff. With many young professionals reconsidering their futures in public service, the need for a more empathetic and balanced approach has never been clearer.
For now, the debate continues: can the system adapt to the modern realities of work and family, or will stories like this one become even more common?

“Thanks, MOH, For Helping Me Decide To Quit”: Doctor Resigns After Sudden Sabah Transfer Sparks Outrage

One Malaysian reveals how he slashed his transport costs by more than RM7,000 a year by switching to an electric vehicle (EV), covering nearly 4,000km a month for just RM316. But there&rsquo;s a catch &mdash; and it starts with your home.
With petrol prices climbing and electric vehicles becoming more accessible, the question on many Malaysians' minds is simple: Is now the right time to go electric? For one Malaysian driver, the answer is a firm yes &mdash; but only if certain key conditions are met.
After two and a half months behind the wheel of his Proton Emas Premium EV, he<a href="https://www.facebook.com/hasrulazuan.hussin/posts/pfbid02P7HQMTPZc6vzXrHZj7xtBAy6cXDJY3JEi9P8eS5rVxFNZ1QGKwiitctJGDv7e5PVl"> shared</a> a detailed breakdown of his experience, from installation costs and charging routines to real-life savings. His honest review has since gone viral, offering a rare look at the practicalities of EV ownership in Malaysia.
The Setup: A Proton EV and Home Charging Convenience
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/bdae4383639ea3103fc7b810da923a79499db98aec5107263b8ec87229ab330a" />
Opting for the Proton Emas Premium, priced at RM123,000, he received a RM4,000 rebate upon purchase. Proton also provides a free wallbox charger with every EV sold, though the installation cost of RM1,100 came out of pocket &mdash; a worthwhile investment for daily convenience.
Installed at his home, the charger allowed him to bypass public charging infrastructure entirely. He now charges the car every two nights, letting it fill up over 5&ndash;6 hours while he sleeps. &ldquo;Wake up, unplug, and drive &mdash; it&rsquo;s as easy as charging your phone,&rdquo; he remarked.
Daily Driving Made Cheaper Than Ever
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/e7e20c0b8c9b0be5488735e98147ee7904817ac52da68f7b969b59be688e8765" />
This isn't just an urban runabout. Clocking an average of 3,900km monthly, he has pushed the EV beyond casual city commuting. Previously, fuelling his petrol-powered Honda HR-V cost him around RM850 a month.
Now, thanks to his home solar panel system, his TNB bill &mdash; which once hovered between RM70 and RM100 &mdash; has risen to RM416 with EV charging. Factoring in the additional consumption, he estimates the actual monthly charging cost at RM316.
That&rsquo;s an RM534 monthly saving on fuel alone, not to mention reduced servicing costs.
The Non-Negotiables: Landed Property and Low Electricity Bills
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/041cb60701c6c52b53241a4700118224a3869e6fcc1c7bb0c542fcfdc54167ae" />
The EV dream, he cautions, isn&rsquo;t for everyone. Before taking the plunge, he outlines two non-negotiable prerequisites:
<ol>
<li>You live in a landed home &ndash; crucial for installing a personal wallbox charger.</li>
<li>Your TNB electricity bill is under RM200/month, or you&rsquo;ve installed solar panels.</li>
</ol>
Without these, the cost-efficiency and convenience of owning an EV might fall flat, especially for those living in high-rise residences where personal charging setups are impractical.
The Maths: Annual Savings Add Up Quickly 
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/6d02434a552579eb3111ceacf0432a8d8b5d1624c02c5d688e0767e69d760866" />
Here&rsquo;s how the financial benefits look when broken down annually:
<table style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;" border="1">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="width: 33.3283%;">Expenses</td>
<td style="width: 33.3283%;">Petrol</td>
<td style="width: 33.3283%;">EV</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="width: 33.3283%;">Fuel/Charging (monthly)</td>
<td style="width: 33.3283%;">RM850</td>
<td style="width: 33.3283%;">MR316</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="width: 33.3283%;">Yearly</td>
<td style="width: 33.3283%;">MR1,200</td>
<td style="width: 33.3283%;">RM250</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td style="width: 33.3283%;">Total Yearly Savings</td>
<td style="width: 33.3283%;">-</td>
<td style="width: 33.3283%;">RM7,350</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
While some may not find the RM534 monthly saving life-changing, for many households, a RM7,000+ annual cut in transport costs is a major win, especially as living expenses continue to rise.
Long-Distance Driving? No Problem
Contrary to the myth that EVs are strictly city cars, he successfully completed a long-distance trip to Johor Bahru with just a 30-minute recharge stop in Pagoh. He experienced no &ldquo;range anxiety&rdquo; and reported that the car performed comfortably throughout.
That said, he still believes EVs shine best in urban settings, where predictable commutes and at-home charging make them most efficient.
What About Battery Lifespan and Replacement?
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/3e45998a3865f2ce40461f206236383f9ddaff6b773cfa2104545541f84215a2" />
Battery life is one of the biggest concerns for potential EV buyers &mdash; and understandably so, given replacement costs can run into the tens of thousands.
But the data, he says, is encouraging: most EV batteries today are engineered to last up to 1 million kilometres or 50 years, far exceeding the average vehicle lifespan. &ldquo;You&rsquo;ll probably change cars before the battery needs replacing,&rdquo; he said.
Install Solar First If Your Electricity Bills Are High
If you&rsquo;re already seeing monthly TNB bills north of RM400, his advice is clear &mdash; get solar panels first. Without solar, your EV charging costs may eat into your expected savings.
He&rsquo;s also provided a separate post detailing his home solar panel setup, which contributed significantly to the low running costs of his EV.
So, Is an EV Worth It?
✅ Ideal for you if:
<ul>
<li>You live in a landed property</li>
<li>You drive frequently or long distances</li>
<li>You&rsquo;ve already installed or are open to solar panels</li>
<li>You want to lower fuel and maintenance costs</li>
</ul>
❌ Might not be worth it yet if:
<ul>
<li>You live in a condo or apartment without dedicated parking</li>
<li>Your electricity bill is already high</li>
<li>You rely on public chargers which may be limited or inconsistent</li>
</ul>
The Bottom Line
Switching to an EV in Malaysia can deliver significant financial and lifestyle benefits &mdash; but only under the right conditions. For this driver, the math speaks for itself: RM534 saved monthly, nearly RM7,400 a year, with fewer trips to the petrol station and lower maintenance headaches.
As EV infrastructure and incentives grow, more Malaysians may follow his lead. But for now, his story offers a grounded, real-world glimpse into the promise and practicality of going electric in 2025.
The real question lingering in the minds of many Malaysians is whether EVs can truly go the distance in the long run. While home charging offers undeniable convenience, concerns remain around reliability, especially on long journeys where recharging means having to stop for 20 to 30 minutes or more, depending on the available infrastructure. As the technology and network continue to evolve, only time will tell if EVs can fully match the flexibility of traditional fuel-powered cars.

Malaysian Shares Real-Life Experience Of Switching To EV — But It’s Not For Everyone

The brutal killing of a university student in Cyberjaya has taken a grim turn as two teenagers were formally charged with her murder in court today. The case, which has attracted widespread attention, may result in the death penalty if the accused are found guilty.
Pair Formally Charged in Sepang Court
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/a1b3d2a1c9eb4a2f41f5109168dc618b3183e2bc0f01d91c98f6915a4d4f28ad" />
On Thursday (10 July), 19-year-old odd-job worker M. Sri Darvien and his girlfriend, 19-year-old student D. Thineswary, were brought before the Magistrate's Court in Sepang to face charges in connection with the death of 20-year-old Maniishapriet Kaur Akhara, a Bachelor of Physiotherapy student at the University of Cyberjaya.
Darvien has been charged under Section 302 of the Penal Code for murder, which carries the mandatory death penalty upon conviction. If the court opts not to impose the death sentence, he faces imprisonment for a minimum of 30 years up to 40 years, along with at least 12 strokes of the cane.
Thineswary, meanwhile, was charged under Section 109, read together with Section 302 of the Penal Code, for allegedly abetting the murder. If convicted, she too could face the same penalties.
Timeline of Events Leading to the Crime
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/fb15bbe32281c8a0d7bb63ad2c66391e73dbb5da0a9a9ea6b28532d8af095bb8" />
According to the charge sheet, Darvien is accused of committing the murder between 9.11pm and 11.31pm on 23 June at Block A of the Mutiara Ville condominium in Cyberjaya. Thineswary is believed to have abetted the crime at around 12.30pm the same day at the same location.
Both appeared separately before Magistrate Khairatul Animah Jelani. Darvien was clad in a plain white T-shirt, while Thineswary was dressed in black. No pleas were recorded during the session, as the case falls under the jurisdiction of the High Court.
Prosecution and Defence Submissions
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/25770f94b2d68cd625941fe9ea2c4efd8c751c4e9d5cb9e58f1d7a98c831a6c7" />
Deputy Public Prosecutor Raja Zaizul Faridah Raja Zaharudin informed the court that no bail would be offered, citing the severity of the charges. She also requested additional time to complete the forensic, post-mortem and chemistry reports before proceeding with the application to transfer the case to the High Court.
Representing Darvien, defence counsel M. Manoharan appealed for an expedited transfer, while Thineswary&rsquo;s lawyer, Mohamed Baharudeen Mohamed Ariff, stressed the need for urgency, noting the public scrutiny and viral nature of the case.
However, the prosecution explained that relevant documents must first be served to the defence before seeking consent for the transfer from the Attorney-General&rsquo;s Chambers. The court has fixed 11 September as the next mention date to review the case&rsquo;s progress.
A Case That Shocked the Nation
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/99967af9ee5ede1d8e1e84b070f39474fcefa7285d47d14313a7eb957c06ddc1" />
Maniishapriet&rsquo;s murder stunned many across Malaysia. Originally from Kuching, Sarawak, she was studying physiotherapy in Cyberjaya and living in student housing. On the morning of 24 June, her body was discovered by a friend who entered her condominium unit after being unable to reach her.
At the time, her housemates had gone home for the holidays, leaving Maniishapriet alone. Police investigations revealed no signs of forced entry or sexual assault, but several of her belongings&mdash;including her iPhone, laptop, and ATM card&mdash;were missing.
Following a post-mortem examination, the cause of death was confirmed as blunt force trauma to the head. Police later revealed that the male suspect had allegedly stayed at the unit before the killing, having been granted access through keys and an entry card provided by his girlfriend.
Victim's Family Calls for Swift Justice
Lawyers Datuk Rajpal Singh, Raspreet Kaur, and Sarabmeet Singh appeared on behalf of the victim&rsquo;s family, holding a watching brief. Rajpal, who is also Maniishapriet&rsquo;s uncle, has been vocal in calling for a fair but speedy resolution to the case, underscoring the family's grief and the need for justice.
Next Steps in a High-Profile Murder Case
The tragic case has become a focal point in discussions about campus safety, domestic abuse, and youth crime in Malaysia. With the next court mention scheduled for September, the nation awaits developments as the wheels of justice begin to turn.
For now, both accused remain in custody as investigations continue. The prosecution team, consisting of multiple deputy public prosecutors, is preparing the necessary documentation to ensure the case is heard in the appropriate legal venue.
As the case unfolds in the High Court, it remains to be seen how the judiciary will weigh the facts and determine accountability in one of the country&rsquo;s most high-profile murder cases this year.

Teen Couple Charged With Murder Of Cyberjaya Student, Facing Possible Death Penalty

Malaysia is set to welcome a new pair of giant pandas &mdash; Chen Xing and Xiao Yue &mdash; as part of its continued conservation partnership with China. The announcement was made during a special ceremony held at the National Elephant Conservation Centre in Kuala Gandah, Pahang, on Monday (5 July) to celebrate the successful repatriation of the previous panda pair.
The earlier duo, Fu Wa and Feng Yi, affectionately known in Malaysia as Xing Xing and Liang Liang, were returned to China on 18 May 2025, concluding their 11-year stay at Zoo Negara, Kuala Lumpur.
Renewed Commitment to Conservation
<iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fnresmalaysia%2Fposts%2Fpfbid02MDRAP6r5zJ5mYZuUGUhqswEYGP9KFYaBygCvDBNv754TuEBf913C6xpdEs3NikqDl&amp;show_text=true&amp;width=500" width="500" height="806" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
The event was attended by top officials including Datuk Abdul Kadir Abu Hashim, Director-General of the Department of Wildlife and National Parks (Perhilitan), and Siva Kumar Solay Rajah, Secretary of the Biodiversity and Forestry Management Division. Both praised the strong bilateral cooperation that enabled Malaysia to fulfil its conservation obligations and maintain its standing as a trusted partner in wildlife diplomacy.
They also emphasised that the successful return of the pandas showcased Malaysia&rsquo;s dedication to international conservation efforts, and expressed hope that the incoming pair, Chen Xing and Xiao Yue, would continue to inspire public interest in environmental preservation.
The ministry also confirmed that preparations are underway to receive the pandas, with close coordination ongoing between Malaysian authorities and Chinese officials.
Malaysia&rsquo;s Panda History: A Symbol of Diplomacy

Malaysia&rsquo;s panda journey began in 2014, when China loaned Fu Wa and Feng Yi to commemorate 40 years of diplomatic ties. The pandas, later renamed Xing Xing and Liang Liang, became immediate public favourites, drawing thousands of visitors to Zoo Negara and sparking interest in wildlife conservation among Malaysians of all ages.
In 2015, Liang Liang gave birth to Nuan Nuan, the first panda cub born in Malaysia. Nuan Nuan was returned to China in 2017, in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement, marking another key milestone in the conservation programme.
Over their 11-year stay, Xing Xing and Liang Liang played an instrumental role in raising awareness about endangered species and promoting Malaysia&rsquo;s commitment to wildlife preservation.

Once Chen Xing and Xiao Yue arrive and complete their required quarantine and acclimatisation process, they will be housed at the Giant Panda Conservation Centre at Zoo Negara. This specially designed facility features temperature-controlled enclosures, feeding stations, and educational displays to ensure the pandas' health and comfort.
The pandas will be accessible to the public during regular zoo hours:
<ul>
<li>Zoo Operating Hours: Daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM</li>
<li>Giant Panda Viewing: Typically available throughout the day, subject to health and feeding schedules</li>
</ul>
Visitors are encouraged to follow Zoo Negara Malaysia&rsquo;s official channels for updates on their arrival, ticketing information, and public viewing arrangements.
The arrival of Chen Xing and Xiao Yue is set to usher in a new era for panda conservation in Malaysia, once again bridging international goodwill with local engagement. As the nation prepares to welcome its newest residents, the public can look forward to another chapter in this heartwarming panda story.
Time to keep an eye out for when they arrive and schedule a visit to the Pandas!

Malaysia To Welcome New Giant Pandas Chen Xing And Xiao Yue From China

If you're someone who frequently scrolls through social media, chances are you've stumbled upon a trend called &ldquo;Aura Farming&rdquo; &mdash; a mesmerising online phenomenon where individuals dance or strike poses at the front of speeding boats. At the heart of this trend is 11-year-old Indonesian boy Rayyan Arkan Dikha, fondly known as Dika, whose boat-top dances have launched him into viral stardom across the globe.
But beyond the dazzling visuals and celebrity imitations, the viral trend has ignited an unexpected cultural row, with Indonesian officials firmly rejecting claims, allegedly from Malaysian netizens, that the traditional boat race known as pacu jalur originated in Malaysia.
What is Pacu Jalur and Why It Matters?
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/8e869a214ed2378343439bf57481e2e3b37d3a23ac7a28453dd39e5b9c19f39a" />
Pacu jalur is more than just a boat race &mdash; it is a centuries-old cultural tradition rooted in the district of Kuantan Singingi, Riau, in central Sumatra. The name itself comes from the Malay word menjulur, meaning "to stretch or extend," referencing the long wooden boats, often elaborately decorated, used in the event.
Dating as far back as the 17th century &mdash; and formally recorded since at least the 1890s &mdash; the tradition initially served as a festive competition during Islamic celebrations. Under Dutch colonial rule, it became a fixture in events like the birthday of Queen Wilhelmina. Today, pacu jalur is held annually in the lead-up to Indonesia&rsquo;s Independence Day and is considered both a sporting event and a cultural spectacle that draws massive crowds and national attention.
In 2014, Indonesia&rsquo;s Ministry of Education and Culture officially recognised pacu jalur as a Warisan Budaya Takbenda (Intangible Cultural Heritage), solidifying its status as a national treasure.
From River Rituals to Internet Fame
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/eb00ce07d8f5d109c6082cb08bf65eaff8a2c314836ee2e52b217463a4a8ddf1" />
The modern revival of pacu jalur gained massive online momentum last month after videos of young Dika fearlessly dancing on the tip of a moving jalur boat went viral. Nicknamed "The Reaper" by netizens for his daring yet graceful movements, Dika's performance struck a chord not just in Indonesia, but internationally.
The viral sensation quickly caught on. IndyCar racer Robert Shwartzman mimicked the pose, French football team Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) shared a celebratory video featuring players Neymar and Bradley Barcola doing the dance, and even British YouTuber KSI, Thai-British F1 Driver Alex Albon and American golf star and 2x major champion Bryson DeChambeau jumped on the trend.
This global interest has elevated the tradition to an unprecedented level of visibility, with the hashtag #AuraFarming drawing millions of views and spawning fan tributes, memes, and media features across platforms.

Claims of Malaysian Origin Stir Online Backlash 
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/88704f46443837d661aee34e3899c7381690292fe63a90d07511907d91478466" />
Amid the euphoria, tension quietly simmered when a few alleged Malaysian accounts began commenting under the viral videos, claiming that pacu jalur originated in Malaysia. The remarks ignited a strong backlash among Indonesian netizens, who swiftly condemned the perceived cultural appropriation. The issue snowballed into national headlines after prominent Indonesian news outlets and public figures weighed in.
Riau Governor Abdul Wahid responded to the controversy by urging calm, stating that cultural exchange between neighbouring nations like Malaysia and Indonesia is natural due to shared roots. However, he firmly reiterated that the tradition of pacu jalur is historically and culturally linked to Kuantan Singingi, not Malaysia.
&ldquo;Cultural assimilation is inevitable, but look at the facts and reality &mdash; pacu jalur has long existed in Riau. It's not a recent phenomenon,&rdquo; he told Detik. Wahid also confirmed that Dika has been appointed as Riau&rsquo;s tourism ambassador for his role in bringing global attention to the tradition.
Were the Claims Really From Malaysians?
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/ac1f18f9f604bae0ec6d345596dae11e1f528077bf3b7f06794b21339da28aa4" />
Interestingly, further investigation suggests that the original comments claiming Malaysian origin might not have come from Malaysians at all. A TikTok user reviewed the profiles responsible for the claims and discovered that they were registered under Indonesian locations, raising questions about whether false flag accounts or misunderstood comments fueled the controversy.
Malaysian outlet Murai.my clarified that while a pacu jalur-inspired event was once held in Perlis, it was never marketed as a native Malaysian tradition. Instead, the event served to introduce Malaysians to regional cultures &mdash; especially in northern states with strong ties to Sumatra &mdash; and was never recognised as part of Malaysia&rsquo;s official cultural heritage.
The site also warned readers about the volatile nature of online discourse, pointing out that even a single offhand remark can spiral into a full-blown cultural dispute in today&rsquo;s social media landscape, especially when it involves the long-standing sensitivities between Malaysia and Indonesia.
Calls for Accuracy Amid Shared Histories
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/2aff8cbe42e16986c387a97cc81a93c31d9c1eaa2c6d6ecb70716da88f1edd85" />
Indonesian Culture Minister Fadli Zon has reaffirmed pacu jalur&rsquo;s heritage status, while Vice President Gibran Rakabuming Raka joined the trend in solidarity by posting his own rendition of Dika&rsquo;s dance. Local officials, including Riau&rsquo;s tourism director and Kuantan Singingi cultural leaders, have also stressed that historical records, rituals, and practices tied to the event all point to its deep Indonesian origins.
Roni Rakhmat, head of Riau's Tourism Department, dismissed the Malaysian origin claims as baseless: &ldquo;There are long-standing rituals, ceremonies, and a deep cultural process behind it. The historical documentation is clear &mdash; this is Riau&rsquo;s heritage.&rdquo;
Ultimately, while the trend has sparked joy and cultural curiosity, it has also become a reminder of how digital virality can blur national boundaries and historical context, often with unintended consequences.

Viral 'Aura Farming' Trend Sparks Cultural Row As Indonesia Rejects Malaysian Claims Over Pacu Jalur

The Malaysian government is making significant strides towards implementing a dedicated anti-scalping law, following widespread frustration among concertgoers and event fans over inflated resale prices and fraudulent ticket sales. Communications Minister Fahmi Fadzil confirmed that detailed discussions are now underway between the Ministry of Communications and the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (KPDN), aimed at formulating legislation to combat scalping, particularly within the live events sector.
The move comes in the wake of repeated controversies surrounding ticket scalping in Malaysia &mdash; most notably during Coldplay&rsquo;s sold-out 2023 concert in Kuala Lumpur, where tickets were quickly snapped up and resold at astronomical prices. With no legal framework currently in place to prohibit or regulate such practices, resellers have been operating freely, often at the expense of genuine fans and event organisers.
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/c6d68a6f82d0136d1e0d8f40585131458b54462cca20f215768ff1e8bbad8e64" />
Speaking to Malay Mail, Fahmi said his deputy, Teo Nie Ching, has been engaging with key industry stakeholders, including local ticketing platforms and the Association of Live Event Organisers (ALIFE), to explore the best mechanisms for enforcement. &ldquo;There are active discussions between KPDN and the Communications Ministry,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;We're listening carefully to feedback from industry players to ensure the law is effective and enforceable.&rdquo;
Proposals Include ID Verification and Tougher Penalties
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/8c9d2385629f4be13b3ac49ef4047d772683f40cdedb4270c2247d1e00d2ef25" />
One of the core proposals under consideration involves the introduction of identification (ID) verification at entry points. This system would require ticket holders to present the same identification used during the online purchase process, matching the name printed on the ticket with a valid government-issued document.
&ldquo;This approach was adopted in Indonesia and, while not entirely foolproof, has helped reduce the scale of ticket scalping there,&rdquo; Fahmi explained. &ldquo;We believe a similar measure could be adapted here, though implementation logistics are still being reviewed.&rdquo;
Malaysia currently lacks any law that expressly bans ticket reselling above face value, meaning that scalpers continue to exploit fans through inflated resale prices or fake listings. This legal loophole has significantly hindered authorities&rsquo; ability to take action against resellers, despite public outcry and repeated calls for regulation.
Although a draft law has yet to be finalised, the government has pledged to continue its consultations with ALIFE and other industry players. Fahmi noted that ALIFE is currently in the process of gathering feedback from its members before returning to the ministry with further recommendations. A concrete timeline for when the Bill will be tabled in Parliament, however, has yet to be announced.
Surging Live Event Sector Amplifies Scalping Problem
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/65ae10c8e375a20c68922c5a2d0a123de16db0891ce383e8eaaaa4f664ee4fb7" />
Malaysia&rsquo;s live entertainment sector has witnessed a rapid resurgence since the country reopened post-pandemic, further intensifying the scalping issue. According to Deputy Communications Minister Teo Nie Ching, live events have played a crucial role in reviving Malaysia&rsquo;s tourism economy, stimulating business in accommodation, dining, retail, and travel sectors.
In 2024 alone, Malaysia hosted 408 concerts &mdash; a substantial increase from 335 in 2023 and nearly four times the 108 concerts recorded in 2022. This growth, while positive for the economy, has also made high-demand events a prime target for ticket resellers looking to exploit shortages and desperate fans.
The secondary market has become a battleground, with tickets for major acts such as Coldplay, Blackpink, and Ed Sheeran often being resold within minutes of general release &mdash; sometimes at double or triple the original price. In some cases, fans have also fallen victim to fraudulent sales and ticket duplication, leaving them locked out of events they had paid significant sums to attend.
The situation has not only drawn criticism from consumers but also from artists, promoters, and international observers, many of whom have called on Malaysian authorities to strengthen consumer protections and level the playing field for fans.
Global Case Studies: How Other Countries Tackled Scalping
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/ecd2727bcd1701977e15c1924681a8a86f9f09b3d5443e06a2cae62d650b9a10" />
As Malaysia moves closer to implementing its own anti-scalping legislation, policymakers are studying examples from abroad to identify best practices and potential pitfalls.
In the United States, the Better Online Ticket Sales (BOTS) Act was passed in 2016 to prohibit the use of automated bots and software to circumvent ticketing platform limits and security features. The law also bars individuals from reselling tickets knowingly obtained through such illegal means. Violations of the Act are subject to enforcement by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), which has the power to impose significant financial penalties. In 2021, the FTC and Department of Justice took legal action against three New York-based ticket brokers accused of illegally acquiring over 150,000 tickets, reselling them for millions in profit. A combined civil penalty of over US$31 (~RM131 million) million was levied, though later reduced due to the defendants&rsquo; financial situation.
The United Kingdom also addressed the issue in 2018 by amending the Digital Economy Act, criminalising the use of bots to bulk-buy event tickets. The UK law focuses on cracking down on "secondary ticketing" platforms and resellers who significantly mark up prices. Those found in breach of the law face unlimited fines.
In Canada, although there is no federal anti-scalping law, provinces such as Ontario, Alberta, and British Columbia have enacted their own legislation. The Ticket Sales Act, enforced at the provincial level, bans the use of automated purchasing software and restricts bulk purchases. Violators face substantial fines and possible imprisonment.
These models offer valuable insights into how Malaysia might tailor its own version of an anti-scalping law &mdash; though officials have yet to confirm whether the legislation will be limited to live events or broadened to include sectors such as gaming, electronics, and merchandise where scalping is also prevalent.
Fans Hope for Fairer Access &mdash; But When Will the Law Arrive?
Although the government&rsquo;s intentions have been welcomed by both fans and industry stakeholders, many remain cautious, pointing to previous delays in bringing similar consumer protection laws to fruition. With no fixed date for parliamentary debate, questions remain over how quickly the proposed anti-scalping framework will be finalised and whether it will be ready in time to protect fans ahead of another packed concert calendar in 2025.
Still, the current momentum signals a growing recognition within the government that consumer confidence must be restored in Malaysia&rsquo;s burgeoning entertainment scene. If passed, the law would mark a significant step forward in ensuring fairer access to live events &mdash; and a major win for Malaysian fans long frustrated by ticketing injustice.
Let&rsquo;s hope the law comes into effect soon &mdash; but with My Chemical Romance tickets going on sale tomorrow (Friday, 11 July), it&rsquo;s likely that scalpers will once again flood the secondary market before real fans even get a chance.
For now, all we can do is hope the authorities act swiftly and decisively to curb this growing issue. What do you think? Should scalping be criminalised in Malaysia? Share your thoughts with us in the comments below.
