Apple Intelligence

It looks like Apple has finally rolled out its long-awaited Apple Intelligence update to iOS 18.1, iPad OS 18.1, and MacOS Sequoia 15.1. The best thing is that it&rsquo;s also now available here in Malaysia&mdash;well, at least some of it is. The AI rollout is still marked as &ldquo;in beta&rdquo; by the company, so not all the tools that were announced back in September are available right now.
How Do Apple Users Activate It?
Currently, Apple Intelligence is available only in US English. However, Apple has committed to expanding language support for its AI suite soon&mdash;details on that are forthcoming.
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/4d4c3875528b5c623954b1745d2454bd3c9efa441506a257015435c78e05d2ad" />
To access Apple Intelligence now, you&rsquo;ll need to adjust a few settings: first, set your Siri request language to US English under the Apple Intelligence &amp; Siri settings in the Settings app. Then, go to Language &amp; Region settings to set English (US) as your primary language. Once these changes are made, you can return to the Apple Intelligence &amp; Siri settings to activate it. Notably, Apple Intelligence is still in its Beta phase.
Previously, users were required to join a waitlist before activating Apple Intelligence. Fortunately, the wait time proved shorter than expected, which is certainly a positive update.
What Are Their New Features?
1) Write Better With Their Writing Tools
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/95b067cce35dbfc51abac552713a064f5a7b1837dfe23d7a56ec29dd7742b963" />
During Apple's announcement event, the company introduced its AI suite, which features a comprehensive Writing Tool that is seamlessly integrated across iOS, iPadOS, and macOS.
This Writing Tool assists users in refining their language by offering options to rewrite text and adjust the tone to make it more professional, concise, or friendly. Additionally, it provides editing suggestions along with explanations for each change.
Moreover, the tool can proofread your writing, checking for grammar, word choice, and sentence structure. If your text feels overly lengthy, the Writing Tool can summarize it into a more digestible format, such as a concise paragraph, table, list, or key points in bullet form.
2) Reduce Distractions While Staying In The Know
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/d1327dd041cce7b6ebb22861f9f4fd2b3f3fa2408360881c77e8d30b6484f0fb" />
We often wish to silence notifications while still staying informed about important updates. Apple Intelligence addresses this by summarizing lengthy or cluttered notifications, displaying only the essential details on the lock screen. This feature is particularly helpful during active group chats, as it minimizes distractions while ensuring users are aware of significant messages. Additionally, users can enable the new Focus mode to further reduce interruptions, allowing only notifications that require immediate attention to appear.
Apple Intelligence has also been integrated into Apple&rsquo;s Mail app through the Priority Messages feature. This new section, located at the top of the inbox, highlights the most urgent emails&mdash;like same-day lunch invitations or boarding passes&mdash;without the need to open them. For longer email threads, users can tap or click the Summarize feature to access crucial details. The Smart Reply function offers quick response suggestions and can even identify questions within emails to ensure that all inquiries are addressed.
Moreover, Apple&rsquo;s Notes and Phone apps now include the ability to record, transcribe, and summarize audio. During a call, participants will be notified when the recording begins. Once the call concludes, Apple Intelligence will generate a summary of the key points discussed, making it easier to review important information.
3) Smarter Photos Spp With Natural Language Search And Clean Up 
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/afedbc176f9235e91e4a9deaefb1e1660a9417290f5a7fea28b40ae553d54833" />
Apple has seamlessly integrated its AI capabilities into the Photos app, introducing a natural language search feature that allows users to find images by simply describing them. For example, you can search for phrases like &ldquo;Daniel tying his white Vans on a stool.&rdquo; This functionality extends to videos as well, enabling users to locate specific moments within a video by searching for relevant keywords.
If you often find yourself dealing with photobombers in your selfies, Apple has you covered with the new Clean Up feature. This tool not only lets you remove unwanted people from your photos but also allows for the removal of other distracting objects. Similar features have recently been introduced in various AI-enabled Android phones.
Additionally, the Memories feature offers a creative twist: you can generate a movie by simply typing a description. Apple will automatically select the best photos and videos that match your input, crafting a cohesive storyline with chapters based on the themes identified in your media, and arranging them into a polished movie.
4) Siri Is Now Smarter 
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/551ad251560c7bb44638b797c074d82f79e438cc1da779a4415f59ecf99f0c85" width="567" height="1232" />
One of the standout features from the recent announcements regarding Apple Intelligence is the revamped Siri, which now boasts a sleek design reminiscent of Samsung's Edge Lighting with its glowing light effect.
Beyond its aesthetic update, Siri has significantly improved its language comprehension abilities, allowing it to understand users even when they hesitate or fumble over their words. This enhanced capability enables Siri to maintain context between requests, making interactions more fluid and intuitive.
Additionally, Siri can assist users with questions related to features and settings of Apple products, providing valuable support for those who may not be as familiar with their devices. For example, you can ask Siri for step-by-step guidance on how to record your screen or share your Wi-Fi password with visitors, making it a practical tool for everyday use.
More AI Features With Language Support Coming Later In December 2024
Apple has announced that the initial features rolled out with Apple Intelligence are just the beginning, with plans to introduce additional functionalities starting in December 2024. Among these new features is the ability to create a unique Genmoji simply by typing a description. Users can also personalize their Genmoji using photos of friends or family members.
Later this year, Apple will launch Image Playground, Image Wand, and enhanced features for Writing Tools. This will allow users to specify changes they wish to make to their text, such as transforming a dinner party invitation into a poetic format or adding more dynamic word choices to a r&eacute;sum&eacute;. Users will also have the opportunity to learn more about objects and places by utilizing the camera on their iPhone 16 and its Camera Control button.
As mentioned earlier, Apple Intelligence is currently only available in US English. However, the company plans to introduce localized English support for countries including Australia, Canada, Ireland, the UK, and more by the end of 2024. &nbsp;Additionally, support for other languages, such as Chinese English (India), English (Singapore), French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Spanish, Vietnamese, and others, will begin in April 2025.
Supported devices for Apple Intelligence include:
<ul>
<li>iPhone 16</li>
<li>iPhone 16 Plus</li>
<li>iPhone 16 Pro</li>
<li>iPhone 16 Pro Max</li>
<li>iPhone 15 Pro</li>
<li>iPhone 15 Pro Max</li>
<li>iPad with A17 Pro or M1 and later</li>
<li>Mac with M1 and later</li>
</ul>
It seems that AI is increasingly becoming an integral part of our daily lives. However, if you're not considering Apple Intelligence, there's no need to adjust your device's language settings just yet. Unfortunately, it appears that older iPhone models, including the iPhone 14 series and earlier, won't receive support for this feature. Nevertheless, let&rsquo;s remain optimistic that future updates might change that!

Apple Intelligence Is Now Available For iOS 18 Users In Malaysia!

In Malaysia, the name Khairul Aming is synonymous with influence and community impact. Renowned for his engaging social media content cherished by Malaysians&mdash;including culinary legend Gordon Ramsay&mdash;Khairul has also made a name for himself through his unwavering commitment to helping those in need.&nbsp;
This past week, Kelantan has faced one of its worst floods in decades, leaving a devastating toll. The disaster has claimed six lives nationwide and displaced over 140,896 people.&nbsp;
Amid this crisis, Khairul Aming has stepped up, dedicating his time and resources to assist flood victims in Kelantan. Over the past several days, he has been actively distributing food and essential supplies to those affected, and his efforts continue even now.
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

<script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

In a recent update on X (formerly Twitter), Khairul Aming announced that updated standard operating procedures (SOPs) now permit him to begin his relief efforts earlier in the day, starting at 1 PM. Previously, he was restricted to delivering food and other supplies only after 6 PM.
So far, Khairul has extended aid to over 7,000 flood victims across 17 critical locations in Kelantan, his hometown. In an earlier post, he outlined his flood relief plan, sharing details on where volunteers and donors can contribute. He encouraged the public to drop off supplies such as ready-to-eat meals, clothing, blankets, personal care items, and more to support those in need.
In an update on his X account, Khairul Aming shared that relief efforts for 7,000 victims at the temporary relief centre (PPS) in SK Pengkalan Kubor 2 have been successfully completed.
&ldquo;The Malaysian Civil Defence Force arrived with two lorries to deliver aid there. Help is on the way. Thank you all,&rdquo; he wrote in the caption.

Mydin Allows Khairul Aming To Take Goods From His Store 
Moved by the struggles of the flood victims, Mydin Managing Director Datuk Wira (Dr.) Haji Ameer Ali Mydin stepped in to support Khairul Aming&rsquo;s relief efforts. He granted Khairul unrestricted access to goods from Mydin&rsquo;s premises to ensure swift aid delivery.&nbsp;
In a video re-uploaded on the X platform (@localrkyt), Datuk Ameer encouraged Khairul and his team to focus on their mission without worrying about immediate payments or credit card transactions. He assured them, &ldquo;Take as many items as you need&mdash;whether it&rsquo;s 20,000 or 100,000. Once the flood relief mission is completed, we will settle the payment.&rdquo;&nbsp;
Additionally, Datuk Ameer announced that Mydin would donate 5,000 items to further support Khairul Aming&rsquo;s ongoing flood relief efforts.

Netizens Praise The Efforts Of Both Khairul Aming and Datuk Ameer Mydin
Unsurprisingly, netizens flooded the comments section with gratitude, commending both Khairul Aming and Datuk Ameer Mydin for their generous contributions to the flood relief efforts in Kelantan.&nbsp;
Mydin also earned widespread praise for consistently being among the first to provide aid during natural disasters. Many recalled the Shah Alam floods in 2021 when desperate residents broke into a Mydin store in Taman Sri Muda to secure essential items. Initially deemed as &ldquo;stolen,&rdquo; Datuk Ameer Mydin later declared that all the goods taken were legalized, acknowledging the dire circumstances and emphasizing that it was an act of survival during a crisis.
Here's some of the comments:

Second Wave Of Floods Expected
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/5155be9a787073ce8c09ff817ddfecf167c0504b485740c0e2769a2b2d977a19" />
The Kelantan state government has issued a warning for a potential second wave of floods, expected to begin on Wednesday, December 4.
"Attention! Kelantan is forecasted to face a second wave of floods on December 4," the government announced in a social media post on Sunday, December 1.
As of 4 p.m. on Sunday, over 150,000 individuals have been displaced by the floods, which have affected eight states across 35 districts nationwide. The total number of evacuees stands at 150,832, consisting of 44,336 families. Kelantan has been the hardest hit, with 96,657 evacuees, followed by Terengganu (41,788), Kedah (8,427), Negri Sembilan (1,617), Pahang (1,152), Johor (528), Melaka (238), and Perlis (75).
The floods have claimed three lives so far&mdash;one each in Pasir Puteh and Machang in Kelantan on November 27, and one in Besut, Terengganu, on November 28. A total of 672 temporary relief centres have been set up to provide shelter for those affected.
Let&rsquo;s come together in prayer for the safety of all flood victims across Malaysia, and may other organizations follow the inspiring example set by Khairul Aming and Ameer Mydin in offering their support and assistance during this crisis.

Khairul Aming Provides Aid To Thousands In Kelantan Amidst Floods; Mydin Joins In His Effort

Nearly a month ago, we reported on Australia's plans to implement one of the world&rsquo;s strictest social media regulations, targeting a ban on access for those under 16. This move comes in response to growing concerns about the negative impact social media has on the well-being of young people.
Read: <a href="https://myc.my/articles/3916/australia-moves-to-ban-social-media-access-for-children-under-16-with-new-legislation">Australia Moves To Ban Social Media Access For Children Under 16 With New Legislation</a>
At the time, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese had just introduced legislation to prohibit children under 16 from using social media platforms such as Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, and X. He stressed that this decision was made to protect young Australians and address the "real harm" these platforms can inflict on their well-being.
Bill Has Been Passed And Will Into Effect A Year From Now
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/14d06f4ce355efb32e62bdf3aa8202dd1aa15b7b3ae91418f64311b6f5c4576a" />
With the bill being passed, Australia now has one of the strictest social media laws globally. The ban imposed on social media platforms will also impose heavy fines&mdash;up to AUD 49.5 million (~RM 143 million)&mdash;on social media companies that fail to comply.
A trial to enforce the law will begin in January 2025, with full implementation set for a year later. This groundbreaking move has made Australia a test case for other nations, joining countries like France and select U.S. states that have already implemented partial age restrictions.
However, Australia&rsquo;s law is more absolute, banning all under-16 users without exception. A significant 77% of Australians support the measure, though critics&mdash;such as privacy advocates&mdash;have raised concerns about its broader implications.
How the Law Came to Be: A Politician&rsquo;s Family Catalyst 
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/1cd20aa4875b60423b1b95c5f84ea2aa1f3505b8c28eeec93b0cfc1f5d01b127" /> Left: Frances Haugen; Right: Annabel West (wife of SA Prime Minister). 
The movement to restrict youth access to social media in Australia gained momentum after Frances Haugen, a former Meta whistleblower, revealed in 2021 that the company had long been aware of the negative effects of its platforms on teenage mental health.
Despite global discussions, including a 2023 recommendation by the U.S. Surgeon General, many nations struggled to find a solution. In Australia, the push for change was accelerated by an unlikely source: the wife of South Australia&rsquo;s Premier, Peter Malinauskas. After reading the book The Anxious Generation by psychologist Jonathan Haidt, she urged her husband to take action. This moment marked the beginning of a swift, six-month journey that saw the local policy in South Australia evolve into a nationwide ban. Public outcry over the harmful effects of social media, including cases of bullying, suicide, and body image issues, was a driving force behind the legislation&rsquo;s rapid passage.
Global Reactions and the Call for Similar Measures in Japan
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/c983eed9db923f3a80f7cc737904ac7f8494d12cd22fdf858e1ef8e43fbef86f" /> Left Image: Mahira Junko (middle)
The new law has sparked debate in other parts of the world, especially in Japan, where experts are discussing the potential for similar restrictions to protect children. Following Australia&rsquo;s legislative victory, Japan&rsquo;s Children's Policy Minister, Mihara Junko, announced a working group to explore measures to safeguard young people from harmful online content. This debate was fuelled by a local incident involving a 14-year-old girl sending threatening emails to a road safety advocate, highlighting concerns about the impact of social media on youth behaviour.
While some countries, including France and Norway, have taken steps to limit children's social media use, Australia&rsquo;s approach has been the most severe, requiring platforms to block users under 16. Critics argue that such a ban infringes on children&rsquo;s rights to free expression and access to information. In contrast, proponents like Mia Bannister, who tragically lost her son to suicide after social media-driven body image issues, believe that while the law is not a complete solution, it is an essential first step toward protecting young people from the dangers of social media addiction. 
The Road Ahead: Implementing the Ban and Overcoming Challenges
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/4ab24a1839fe3ac7b2e3138e25545112e10865cda02b8c323416a2d2189df1c0" />
The Australian government is now focused on how to enforce the ban, particularly the challenge of verifying users' ages. Possible solutions include biometric checks and ID verification, though these methods raise concerns about privacy.
Social media giants like Meta, while agreeing to comply with the law, have expressed concerns over the rushed nature of the legislation and the lack of clear guidelines for enforcement. Despite these challenges, the law reflects a growing global consensus that protecting the mental health of young people is more important than ever.
While Australia&rsquo;s move to ban social media for those under 16 is a positive step in protecting young people's well-being, it raises concerns about the future of social media as a whole. 
Many of the latest trends and creative ideas are often sparked by younger users, and without them, we might find ourselves feeling disconnected from the pulse of popular culture. It's true that social media addiction can be difficult to overcome, but even when we try to step away, we often find ourselves returning to our phones, endlessly scrolling for hours.

Social media is tightening its reins, but the new ban raises significant privacy concerns over age verification.

Australia Passes Ban Of Social Media For Children Under 16

A 23-year-old university student has raised concerns about an unexpected RM5 charge she encountered when collecting her renewed passport, which she had already paid for online. The incident occurred at the Urban Transformation Centre (UTC) in Galleri@Kotaraya, Johor Bahru, on November 26.
The student, who wishes to remain anonymous, claimed that a female immigration officer handed her the passport and requested an additional RM5 payment. Unprepared for the charge, the student explained she didn&rsquo;t have cash on hand and was instructed to pay via a QR code. To her surprise, the transaction revealed that the money was directed to a personal bank account instead of an official government account.
"I was slightly dazed as I believed all payments were already settled online," the student said. She noted that she hadn&rsquo;t requested the plastic cover included with her passport and wasn&rsquo;t informed about the fee beforehand.
Although the RM5 amount was minimal, the student emphasized her stance against any misuse of power or malpractice, regardless of the sum involved.
Immigration Department Explains the RM5 Charge 
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/0813cf7f2e2a2405758c7209be040a978bf9313259c3406fbd93f950ceb66482" />
Following the student's claims, Johor Immigration Department director Datuk Rusdi Mod Darus clarified the situation. He explained that the RM5 was a legitimate fee for the plastic protective cover provided with the passport.
According to Datuk Rusdi, a thorough internal investigation revealed no evidence of misconduct or integrity violations. He stated that the RM5 payment was correctly deposited into the Johor Immigration Sports Charity Club&rsquo;s official account, not a personal one.
However, the department acknowledged the confusion caused by the payment method. "To enhance transparency and public confidence, we will implement changes to our payment system. Moving forward, all payments related to club activities will be processed through an official account managed by the club," Datuk Rusdi said.
Commitment to Transparency and Public Confidence
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/4cc575edd38d7622e542af494a4e940762cbb41a8d8c8ece3f372c573d3081c3" />
The Immigration Department assured the public of its commitment to upholding integrity in its operations. Datuk Rusdi encouraged anyone encountering irregularities at immigration offices to report them directly to the department.
While the RM5 fee was legitimate, the incident highlights the need for clearer communication regarding charges to avoid misunderstandings. The department is now working to improve its operational processes, aiming to provide a more transparent and streamlined experience for the public.
While the officer could have been clearer about the RM5 payment, especially regarding the banking details, it's encouraging to see that steps are being taken to improve transparency and ensure public understanding. That said, one lingering question remains: is it possible to opt out of receiving the plastic cover for our passport?

The RM5 fee was later clarified to be for the plastic cover of the passport.

Malaysia has produced some incredible talents who have risen to international stardom, with iconic names like Michelle Yeoh and Henry Golding leading the charge as Asian powerhouses in Hollywood and beyond. But let&rsquo;s not overlook another gem in the Malaysian entertainment scene&mdash;Ronny Chieng.

The Instagram clip kicks off with Ronny Chieng playfully asking Jimmy O. Yang, &ldquo;What&rsquo;s the GOAT (Greatest of All Time) Asian country?&rdquo; Caught off guard, Jimmy humorously dodges a direct answer, saying he&rsquo;d rather not pick a favourite. In true comedic fashion, Ronny suggests ranking Asian countries based on whether Jimmy would ride a roller coaster in them. Despite the lighthearted nudge, Jimmy stays cautious, prompting Ronny to tease that the &ldquo;real answer&rdquo; is already obvious.&nbsp;
Eventually, Jimmy offers Japan as a possible choice, explaining that he sees it as a strong contender while trying to avoid sounding biased or offending anyone. Ronny, however, quickly cuts in, joking that it&rsquo;s an easy and predictable pick, quipping, &ldquo;Any white person can say Japan is the best country in Asia.&rdquo; When Jimmy flips the question back to Ronny, he doesn&rsquo;t miss a beat, proudly proclaiming, &ldquo;Malaysia is the GOAT country.&rdquo;
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/129017594f94297ddcd975e28185e28f6447cc4602c950265e2907818c8ab66b" />
Jimmy jokingly questions Ronny&rsquo;s claim, hinting that his answer might be biased since Malaysia is his hometown. Ronny wastes no time defending his stance, confidently declaring, &ldquo;Malaysia has the best food in the world,&rdquo; which, in his opinion, firmly establishes its superiority.&nbsp;
The banter takes a comedic turn when Jimmy teases Ronny about his Instagram content, saying it seems like he hates both Malaysians and Singaporeans. Ronny quickly sets the record straight, clarifying, &ldquo;I don&rsquo;t hate Malaysians.&rdquo; Jimmy then quips, &ldquo;Just Singaporeans?&rdquo; prompting Ronny to deliver the punchline with a laugh: &ldquo;And Australians.&rdquo;
Netizens Have Mixed Reactions Online
Ronny&rsquo;s remarks and Jimmy&rsquo;s questions sparked a flurry of mixed reactions online. Many Malaysians expressed their gratitude to Jimmy for recognizing Malaysia and took to the comments to share their pride in being Malaysian.
Others noted Ronny&rsquo;s subtle nod to the &ldquo;Malaysia, Truly Asia&rdquo; slogan during the interview, interpreting it as a clever way of promoting the country&rsquo;s tourism.
Interestingly, even some Singaporeans chimed in, agreeing with Ronny&rsquo;s claim that Malaysian food surpasses Singaporean cuisine. Several others echoed the sentiment, calling Malaysian food some of the best they&rsquo;ve ever had.
Here&rsquo;s some of the comments:
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/ba471ddf9819a22eeb0a08396a042185779deaabac2bcb232603c0d008462205" />
While some parts of the interview might be seen as controversial, it&rsquo;s important to remember that the comments were made in jest and reflect personal opinions. After all, it&rsquo;s natural for people to hold their own country in the highest regard&mdash;it&rsquo;s something most of us would do, no matter the context.&nbsp;
What&rsquo;s even more striking about the video is how Ronny&rsquo;s responses highlight the way Asians perceive themselves and one another. Despite cultural differences and the diversity of languages across Southeast Asia, the region shares a unique sense of unity and mutual understanding that is hard to find elsewhere. It&rsquo;s a reminder of the rich and interconnected heritage that defines us all.

Chinatown has long been a living archive of Kuala Lumpur&rsquo;s cultural soul, where centuries-old temples, bustling markets, and historic shop houses coexist with contemporary art galleries, music venues, and modern F&amp;B outlets. This duality is the heart of the KL Chinatown Festival, themed &ldquo;Together Gather,&rdquo; which brings together community leaders, local businesses, and creatives to celebrate this vibrant neighbourhood.
Key venues such as REXKL, Kwai Chai Hong, Jalan Sultan, and Lorong Panggung will host an exciting range of activities. From traditional Chinese opera and multi-cultural percussion showcases to contemporary music performances by local indie artists like babychair, Tasneem, and Shelhiel, the festival offers something for everyone. Meanwhile, immersive digital art exhibits at REXKL and interactive heritage walks will give attendees a deeper appreciation of Chinatown&rsquo;s past and present.
&ldquo;This festival isn&rsquo;t just about entertainment; it&rsquo;s about fostering a sense of belonging and collaboration,&rdquo; said Shin Chang, co-founder of the festival. &ldquo;We&rsquo;re uniting diverse stakeholders to ensure Chinatown remains a thriving cultural hub, not just during the festival but year-round.&rdquo;
A Platform for Local Talent and Collaboration

One of the highlights of the festival is its music pillar, sponsored by Connor&rsquo;s Stout Porter, a multi-award-winning Malaysian brand recognized for its quality and craftsmanship. Connor&rsquo;s sponsorship aligns with the festival&rsquo;s mission to celebrate local creativity, featuring performances that blend traditional and modern influences.
Festival-goers can also enjoy engaging cultural experiences such as workshops, markets, and evening DJ sets, alongside hands-on opportunities to explore Malaysia&rsquo;s artistic traditions through various art installations and creative activities.
&ldquo;This is not just a celebration but a movement to enrich our cultural landscape and boost the local economy,&rdquo; said Lim Kok Kean, co-founder and festival director. &ldquo;By embracing local talent and creativity, we&rsquo;re enhancing Chinatown&rsquo;s role as a cornerstone of Kuala Lumpur&rsquo;s evolving identity.&rdquo;
Building a Legacy Beyond the Festival

More than just a weekend event, the KL Chinatown Festival aspires to position Chinatown as a leading cultural tourism destination. Its broader mission is to rejuvenate key landmarks and solidify Kuala Lumpur&rsquo;s standing as a global city where commerce and creativity meet.
&ldquo;This is just the beginning,&rdquo; added Shin Chang. &ldquo;Our goal is to create lasting year-round activities that engage the community and ensure Chinatown&rsquo;s cultural vibrancy thrives for generations to come.&rdquo;

KL Chinatown Festival 2024: A Celebration Of Culture, Creativity, And Community

A group of eight Malaysians has filed a class action lawsuit seeking RM60 million in damages against the Malaysian government, the World Health Organization (WHO), and 23 other high-profile defendants. The plaintiffs claim that they suffered severe health complications, including deaths, as a result of the COVID-19 vaccinations administered during the pandemic. This lawsuit, filed on 23 October 2024 by Messrs Mohamad Zainuddin &amp; Co, draws attention to the contentious handling of the pandemic by government authorities and international bodies.
Allegations of Negligence and Inadequate Research
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/30e65e8dcdc5f44f3e592dc1e29145acfbcbbe299c66f90d64bf8c4d8a80e5c0" />
The plaintiffs have named several key figures in the legal action, including WHO Director-General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, former prime ministers Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin and Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob, and Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr. Dzulkefly Ahmad, along with his predecessors Dr. Adham Baba and Khairy Jamaluddin. Also named in the lawsuit are Home Minister Datuk Seri Saifuddin Nasution Ismail, Education Minister Fadhlina Sidek, former Health director-general Tan Sri Dr. Noor Hisham Abdullah, and even the current and former inspectors-general of police.
The plaintiffs allege that the Malaysian government acted negligently by implementing policies based on WHO&rsquo;s declaration of COVID-19 as a global health emergency. They argue that the government failed to conduct adequate research into the virus and the safety of vaccines, accusing them of pushing "toxic experimental vaccines" on the public. According to the plaintiffs, the government was reckless in accepting what they term the "false pandemic" narrative and enforced policies like the Movement Control Order (MCO) without proper investigation. Furthermore, they allege that full disclosure was not provided to the public regarding the risks associated with the vaccines.
Plaintiffs' Personal Stories and Health Impacts 
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/b837050c71b296a55bac0c4e682b46c1e94027c91b4413f19a124b5333d383b2" />
The lawsuit includes personal testimonies from those who claim to have suffered life-altering consequences from the vaccines. One plaintiff&rsquo;s father allegedly died after receiving three doses of the COVID-19 vaccine, while another man&rsquo;s wife reportedly passed away after receiving two doses. Other plaintiffs have shared stories of severe side effects, such as a cleaning worker who suffered a stroke after receiving two doses, and a masseuse who now requires a wheelchair due to serious complications after a single dose.
In addition to the health-related claims, some plaintiffs assert that they faced discrimination in their workplaces for refusing the vaccine. One plaintiff, a worker with Amanah Saham Nasional Bhd, and another, a supervisor at a Melaka department store, both claim that they were subjected to unfair treatment and even job-related penalties for not complying with vaccination mandates.
Another plaintiff, the son of a woman who reportedly died from severe health complications after receiving a single dose of the vaccine, is also involved in the suit. These personal accounts have become central to the case, as they highlight the plaintiffs' belief that the vaccine caused lasting harm to their loved ones and themselves.
Legal Demands: Damages and Reversal of Health Policies 
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/5d9ac6a54bab26411c3bb9341f3eee8c2ff647e2cc201ac26e652b5ddf135641" />
The plaintiffs are seeking a total of RM60 million in general, special, and exemplary damages from the defendants. In addition to monetary compensation, the plaintiffs are asking the court for a formal declaration that COVID-19 is "fake" and man-made. They argue that the pandemic was deliberately engineered and that the vaccines were part of a larger agenda. They also call for the cancellation of the National COVID-19 Immunisation Programme, which they believe was imposed without adequate safety measures or informed consent.
Furthermore, the plaintiffs are demanding that the Malaysian government withdraw its membership from international organizations such as the WHO and the World Economic Forum (WEF), which they claim have conspired to undermine national sovereignty. They accuse these organizations of being "planned criminals" involved in orchestrating a global scheme to control countries under the guise of public health measures. The lawsuit&rsquo;s requests extend to allowing the use of alternative treatments, such as ivermectin and colchicine, which some believe would have been safer and more effective than the vaccine.
Court Date Set for February 2025
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/b0a715934fd42d8360071e468014b2b21a3a711f8f0f1a2b23fba5424c8b29b7" />
The legal proceedings are set to unfold with a case management session scheduled for 17 February 2025 at the Kuala Lumpur High Court. The date will mark the next significant development in this highly anticipated lawsuit. The Attorney-General&rsquo;s Chambers has already filed a memorandum of appearance for the government and other defendants, indicating the seriousness with which the case will be contested.
This lawsuit has drawn significant attention not only for its high-profile defendants but also for the contentious issues it raises regarding public health policies, government accountability, and the response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The case is poised to be a defining moment in Malaysia&rsquo;s legal and public health landscape, and the outcome could have far-reaching implications for the country&rsquo;s future pandemic preparedness and the role of international health organizations like the WHO.
As the plaintiffs push forward with their claims, all eyes will be on the courts in February 2025 to see how the case unfolds. Their lawsuit is more than a legal battle&mdash;it is part of a broader global conversation about the impact of COVID-19, the safety of vaccinations, and the power of multinational health organizations.
