MEF: Opt-in moratorium should be automatic instead. Why?
MEF: Opt-in moratorium should be automatic. Why? I am one of the few people who disagrees that moratorium should be offered to everyone, whether or not they actually needed it.

AstraZeneca 1st jab people, check your MySejahtera yeah
Just two days ago, I was telling my family members that those who received AstraZeneca jab will now be getting their second jab in 9 weeks. In fact it’s either AstraZeneca order delivery or the Japan government donated AstraZeneca delivery and since both said it will be early July, that’s why Science, Technology and Innovation Minister…

EMCO in Selangor and KL yeah. What’s allowed and what’s not?
I thought everyone knows about this news. I also thought everyone realised that it’s quite important to know that vaccination numbers are going up (6000 plus for the past 3 days despite 5000 plus on average for the month of June) but the number of new infections are still persisting, so we should slow it…

Moratorium – No compound interest and no interest are two different things yeah.
Moratorium is back. Yes, we can conclude the economy is not well. Yesterday, a good friend asked this question, “If I apply for moratorium, it means for 6 months I do not need to pay anything and the bank would not charge me any interest, right?” He asked me this before Finance Minister Tengku Zafrul…

5 signs why office demand new norm is back to norm. (even if not immediate) I have had a few ‘discussions’ with people about new norm and norm. Many kept saying that after this pandemic is over, new norm is to work from home. Offices will close down. Demand for offices will go down. May…

Most Liveable City and the effects from Covid-19.
First of all, we need to understand that most liveable city and best retirement city does NOT mean the same thing. The former simply meant that it’s super liveable and nothing about the cost of living and the latter meant that it’s affordable enough and has all you need after you retire and income may…
