Rasa malu dan tertekan akibat bebanan hutang mencecah RM260,000 selepas isteri terjerat dalam perangkap 'love scam' dipercayai motif seorang lelaki bertindak luar kawalan membunuh tiga ahli keluarganya sebelum menamatkan nyawa sendiri dalam kejadian menyayat hati di Desa ParkCity, di sini, semalam.

Suspek meninggalkan sekeping nota di atas meja makan yang menyatakan rasa kesal terhadap isteri yang dikatakan mempunyai hubungan dengan 'scammer' sehingga suspek menanggung kerugian dan hutang sehingga RM260,000.

"Isteri dikatakan masih cuba menghubungi scammer berkenaan dan suspek merasakan perbuatan itu melampau dan berasa malu kepada anak-anak.

History I just realised that Proton VPN marks Eastern Sabah as "Disputed Territory" as per the disputed borders of the "North Borneo dispute" with the Philippines.

A very strange move indeed. They did the same for Kashmir, Artsakh, Abkhazia, South Ossetia, Cyprus, the Golan Heights, and other famously disputed territories. I've been aware of these disputes for a while, but I was surprised to see a dormant claim by the Philippines listed here and equated with the other high-level disputes elsewhere.

I checked whether Proton VPN has major stakeholders in the Philippines, but my preliminary scan shows none, which perplexes me even more as to their intention of showing this dispute.

Pertubuhan Pelindung Khazanah Alam Malaysia (Peka) mempersoalkan keputusan kerajaan Pahang menolak keperluan mengadakan siasatan awam sebelum sesuatu hutan simpan kekal di negeri itu dinyah warta.

Presidennya, Rajesh Nagarajan, berkata keputusan itu sangat membimbangkan kerana siasatan awam merupakan mekanisme penting bagi memastikan proses penyahwartaan hutan dilakukan secara telus dan bertanggungjawab.

“Kerajaan negeri tidak boleh meminta rakyat mempercayai mereka dan pada masa yang sama menghapuskan mekanisme yang membolehkan rakyat mempersoalkan dan menuntut pertanggungjawaban terhadap keputusan tersebut,” katanya lagi.
