The ongoing drama between Sharnaaz Ahmad and Noor Nabila has yet to reach its conclusion ever since the former rejected her wife’s request for a divorce.
The 35-year-old has also been accused for not showing any interest nor showing efforts in saving their broken marriage. In response, Sharnaaz has denied all the false allegations, saying that it’s unfair for people to put the blame on him only.
According to the father-of-one, he sees his efforts in finding the best solution for the problems in their relationshipas very subjective. “When things like this happened, people will tend to see the negative things instead of the good ones. Actually, I have attempted to save our marriage. Nabila also has her own approach in tackling the issue,” the famed actor told Gempak.
“Both of us have been trying but I don’t know. If there was indeed no effort shown from me, how come we could celebrated Hari Raya together? But still I received a divorce application from Nabila last August. At that time, there were tears and all I thought about was our son, Jebat Jayden Ahmad. I thought things were getting better. Instead, the opposite happened and I was surprised,” he further added in the session.
Sharnaaz further assured that the dispute happening between them was not caused by a major mistake. “There may be some glitches. But, it’s just a small matter that I think can be forgiven,” he said during the chat.
“Since this is my first time being a father, there will be times when I am wrong. I’m currently fixing the mistakes and will not repeat them again. However, if they decide to bring up the same sin over and over again, then that will be unfair for me,” Sharnaaz further added.
Sharnaaz was seen at the set of his latest movie “Polis Evo 3” recently in Jalan Ampang, Kuala Lumpur.

We’re more than halfway through “Crash Landing On You” (사랑의 불시착) and things seem to be intensifying for our star couple.
With only 6 episodes left, episode 11 and 12 are set to premiere on Netflix (or tvN) this coming weekend on 1st and 2nd February. Here are several events Kdrama fans can expect to unfold:
1. Role Reversal: Ri Jung Hyuk crash lands into Yoon Se Ri’s world
In the first half of the series, Yoon Se Ri (played by Son Ye Jin) found herself in North Korea after her parasailing accident took a turn for the worst. Now that Se Ri’s life is in jeopardy, Ri Jung Hyuk (played by Hyun Bin) is risking his life once again to save the woman he loves. It’ll be interesting to see how Jung Hyuk adapts to the lifestyle in Seoul.
2. New Setting: From North Korea to South Korea
Through “Crash Landing On You”, viewers have been given a perspective of the vast difference between North Korea and South Korea. As the storyline unravel, we’ll get to see if the squadron and Jung Man Bok are successful in their mission given to them by Ri Jung Hyuk’s father.
Plus, we hope this isn’t the end of the nosy aunty villagers that Se Ri befriended in North Korea. Will the squadron return to North Korea or start a new chapter in South Korea?
3. What is the fate of our favourite star couple?
Se Ri just can’t seem to catch a break. Despite returning to South Korea in one piece, someone is still trying to kill her. That someone is the villainous Cho Chul Kang played masterfully by Oh Man Seok. Thankfully, she has a hunky soldier in Jung Hyuk – ever ready to take a bullet again for her.
Malaysian actor Zed Zaidi came under fire recently for spreading false reports about the Coronavirus outbreak.
The president of the Malaysian Artistes Association (Seniman) posted a photo of himself wearing a mask on his Twitter. Additionally, he uploaded a screenshot of a news claiming that all countries – except Malaysia – had banned Chinese people.
“Being in Malaysia isn’t safe, you have to cover your nose 24 hours a day from influenza and the coronavirus. After this, who knows what other dooms might come down upon us. For sure Malaysia must be doing bad things, I feel like only the people knows,” Zed (real name Rozaidi Jamil) sarcastically wrote on the caption.
The tweet has in turn received widespread backlash from local netizens. In this case, they pointed that the news shared by the “Sembilu” actor was obviously fake. They further claimed that the image shared by him was completely edited.

As a result, a number of internet users have demanded Zed to delete the post. Some of them even urged Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) and Polis Diraja Malaysia (PDRM) to take action against the 39-year-old.
It didn’t end there! A few Twitter trolls also came out with their own edited versions of the news in order to make fun of Zed. Check out some of the replies here:
Following the massive amount of slams, Zed has finally stepped in to clarify the misunderstandings. He claimed that the photo shows a lot of people wearing face masks to avoid the spread of the germs, so he wanted to share with his followers that he’s doing the same as well.
“I tried to link the news with the photo of myself wearing the mask,” Zed told Malaysiakini. He further assured that he’s already aware that the news that he shared yesterday was indeed fake.
Update:

Relating to the coronavirus outbreak in our country, the Ministry of Health has recently confirmed 3 new cases this morning, totalling up to 7 in Malaysia as of today (Wednesday, 29th January), as reported by NST. Those who were affected are Chinese tourists.
2 of them are currently receiving medical observation at the Hospital Sultanah Maliha, Langkawi and Hospital Sultanah Aminah, Johor Bahru.
Who would have ever thought that behind MK (real name Muhammad Hairi Amin)’s cool and charismatic image as a hip-hop artiste, he is actually suffering from needle phobia!
Recently, a Twitter user known as @benygtersakiti uploaded a photo of the K-Clique member hesitantly receiving an injection from the staff. Soon after, a clip of the “Mimpi” hit maker at the same health centre also went viral, further raising everyone’s amusement.
“Is it painful?” a concerned MK asked the nurse, before he continued by further questioning, “Which side is better, right hand side? Is it confirmed?” As the procedure goes, he was seen closing his eyes profusely as he held his pain while getting injected.
Looking at the replies section, a number of fans couldn’t help but to be amused after seeing the young rapper’s antics. Some of them have also been linking his recent controversy about his gold jewellery. Check out some of their reactions here:
At the time of writing (Wednesday, 29th January), the tweet has received over 5,900 retweets and 7,000 likes online! We have no doubt that MK is definitely powerful in influencing local youngsters today.
To quote NewNowNext, is “Birds of Prey” simply badass or queer-baiting?
“Birds of Prey and the Fantabulous Emancipation of one Harley Quinn” (full title) is set to premiere soon. However, it’s interesting to note that the latest topic of discussion is surrounding Roman Sionis aka Black Mask.
Played by Ewan McGregor, the Clown Queen of Crime and the rest of the Birds will be facing off against the slightly lesser-known big-screen villain. During a recent interview, Variety quizzed McGregor on whether his Black Mask character and fellow villain Victor Zsasz (played Chris Messina) are lovers.
“So are you guys gay in the movie?” reporter Marc Malkin asked. “It’s very complicated,” McGregor said. “Their relationship is very much based…there’s a want and a need in there for sure.” Messina added, “There’s like a real love of anarchy.” McGregor then finished with, “More than likely, yes.”
So it appears that Roman Sionis and Victor Zsasz’s “speculated romance” will left up to audiences’ interpretation on how they see fit. Having said that, Comic Book Movie pointed out that Renee Montoya’s sexuality won’t be a question mark as it is already known that comedian Ali Wong plays the character’s ex-girlfriend.
“Birds of Prey” takes place after “Suicide Squad” but it isn’t sticking to a rigid timeframe. Although Jared Leto’s Joker isn’t going to be in this DC film, his presence will play a role to Black Mask’s madness.
“He has to be in absolute control,” McGregor explained. “He’s insane when he’s not in control. We only see him in his club, in his car, in his apartment – or at the end when he’s running around. But really I feel like we only ever see him in places he controls. And then Harley comes into this world and she’s uncontrollable. It drives him mad. He hates it.”
The 48-year-old continued, “It plays into the exploration of misogyny in the film. He’s only ever put up with Harley because she was Joker’s girlfriend. So that was the only reason he ever put up with her, because (Joker) was all-powerful. But as soon as (Roman) realises that Harley’s man is out of the picture, she becomes a problem. That makes him a true misogynist. Harley is trying to find her freedom – the emancipation of Harley Quinn, right? She’s trying to find her voice. She’s not getting her power from her partner anymore.”
Remember the time when Emma Maembong’s little sister, Chacha caused a stir when her bikini drama in Bali went viral in November last year?
After months of silence, Chacha (real name Siti Aisyah Ismail) finally came out of her hiding to clarify the whole situation. It was revealed that the identity of the girl in the video was indeed her.

“I admit that I was on a vacation trip at the time the video went viral. It was a holiday involving girls only,” Chacha said in an interview with Berita Harian. She continued by saying that she just can’t simply shut other people down from badmouthing about her.
“I’m just gonna give up. I believe this is the price I have to pay when I chose to pursue my career as a celebrity. However, this will not be an obstacle for me to be myself and do what I like,” she further added.
Source: Instagram
In addition, the 24-year-old added that she has been immune to the public’s criticisms and backlash targeted at her, as long as it doesn’t affect her career negatively. She insisted that she is being true to herself and doesn’t want to deceive people.
“It’s not like they didn’t know that I often wears revealing clothes.I’m not a two-faced person. What is shown on my account is a real side of myself. I don’t want to show that I’m a perfect person on my Instagram then act differently in public. I think the effect is much more worse for people with that kind of behaviour,” Chacha clarified, ending the chat.

Can y’all believe that it has already been a year since Wanna One (워너원) disbanded and went their separate ways?
The 11 members of the “Energetic” hit makers bid their last farewell to Wannables (as fans are lovingly called) during a special concert held back in January 2019, following the end of their one-year-long contract with Swing Entertainment. Since then, all of the them have continued on their respective journeys in various fields of entertainment.
For those who are curious on what the members are currently up to now a year after their disbandment, then check out the list below:
1. Kang Daniel (강다니엘)

Kang Daniel is now running his own entertainment company, Konnect Entertainment. He released his solo debut EP, “Colour On Me” under the label. However, the Busan-born heartthrob’s promotion for his 2nd single “Touchin'” was cut short, as it was announced that he would be undergoing an hiatus due to health issues.
Get well soon, Daniel!
2. Park Jihoon (박지훈)

Following Wanna One’s disbandment, Jihoon has went on to pursue a career in both singing and acting. Last year, he released 2 EPs – “O’Clock and “360”. Apart from that, the Masan-born cutie also starred as Go Youngsoo in “Flower Crew: Joseon Marriage Agency”.

Brand New Music labelmates Daehwi and Woojin made their official debut with AB6IX with the song “Breathe”, along with 2 other “Produce 101” alumnis; Lim Youngmin and Kim Donghyun. The 4 talented boys were joined by former JYP, Woollim and YG trainee Jeon Woong.
5. Kim Jaehwan (김재환)

The all-rounded musician went on to become a solo artiste under the same group that used to manage Wanna One; Swing Entertainment. Though most of his songs focuses more on mellowed down and chilled ballads, he still occasionally dances to choreographies from time to time.
6. Ong Seongwu (옹성우)

Like fellow member Jihoon, Seongwu also went on to become an actor and a singer at the same time. He gained nationwide fame for his appearance in JTBC’s “At Eighteen”. For those who have been missing his soothing voice, he has just released a special single called “We Belong”.
7. Lai Guanlin (라이관린)

Guanlin appeared in a special collaboration project with Pentagon member Wooseok in March 2019. Aptly named Wooseok x Guanlin, the duo released an album called “9801”, with the title track “I’m A Star”. In addition, he ventured into acting, like most of the members in this list. He acted as the male lead in Chinese drama “A Little Thing Called First Love”.

Former leader Jisung dropped his 1st EP “Aside”, not long after the end of the group’s contract. He also released a special single called “Winter Flower” as a gift for his fans before his enlistment. He is currently serving in the military.

10. Bae Jinyoung (배진영)
The 20-year-old visual member is now a member of rookie group CIX. They made their official debut back in July 2019 with an EP called “Hello Chapter 1: Hello Stranger”. Just a few months before that, the group was nominated for Best Korean Act at MTV EMA 2019!
11. Ha Sungwoon (하성운)
Last but not least is none other than Ha Sungwoon. The 26-year-old is arguably the most active member when it comes to his participations in a number of projects. This includes singles, drama soundtracks as well as variety show appearances ever since he embarked a solo career. We still have yet to hear any news about his group HOTSHOT, though.
Fingers crossed that all of Wanna One will reunite as a whole team again one fine day. :'(
Say it isn’t so! The Movie Animation Park Studios (MAPS) Theme Park has officially closed down.
The theme park issued a closure notice on MAPS’ Facebook yesterday (Wednesday, 29th January) morning, informing the public that they had shut down for business the day before on Tuesday.
This came after the careful consideration of Receiver and Manager of Animation Theme Park Sdn Bhd (ATP) from Messrs Ernst & Young. Bernama reported that 265 permanent and contract employees of MAPS will receive fair compensation in accordance with the Employment Act 1955.
ATP will be assisting the staff in their transition through counselling services on financial management via the Credit Counselling and Debt Management Agency, and the Social Security Organisation. Sunway Lost World Of Tambun, Swiss-Garden, Hovid, Taiko Group and PCBL have also been conducting job interviews.

MAPS was originally scheduled to open in 2015. Following some delay, the RM520 million project finally debuted in June 2017. The Ipoh theme park was temporarily closed on 3rd January 2020 because of overdue electricity bills.
The writing was already on the wall after MAPS had reportedly suffered RM500 million losses 🙁
Kobe Bryant’s widow, Vanessa, made her first public statement just hours ago, since the tragic death of the NBA legend and their 13-year-old child.
As you may know, Kobe and daughter Giana died in a helicopter crash alongside 7 other people. In her post, Vanessa thank the public for its support and express her grief. Read the emotional statement here:
“My girls and I want to thank the millions of people who’ve shown support and love during this horrific time. Thank you for all the prayers. We definitely need them. We are completely devastated by the sudden loss of my adoring husband, Kobe — the amazing father of our children; and my beautiful, sweet Gianna — a loving, thoughtful, and wonderful daughter, and amazing sister to Natalia, Bianka, and Capri.
We are also devastated for the families who lost their loved ones on Sunday, and we share in their grief intimately.
There aren’t enough words to describe our pain right now. I take comfort in knowing that Kobe and Gigi both knew that they were so deeply loved. We were so incredibly blessed to have them in our lives. I wish they were here with us forever. They were our beautiful blessings taken from us too soon.
I’m not sure what our lives hold beyond today, and it’s impossible to imagine life without them. But we wake up each day, trying to keep pushing because Kobe, and our baby girl, Gigi, are shining on us to light the way. Our love for them is endless — and that’s to say, immeasurable. I just wish I could hug them, kiss them and bless them. Have them here with us, forever.
Thank you for sharing your joy, your grief and your support with us. We ask that you grant us the respect and privacy we will need to navigate this new reality.
To honor our Team Mamba family, the Mamba Sports Foundation has set up the MambaOnThree Fund to help support the other families affected by this tragedy. To donate, please go to MambaOnThree.org.
To further Kobe and Gianna’s legacy in youth sports, please visit MambaSportsFoundation.org.
Thank you so much for lifting us up in your prayers, and for loving Kobe, Gigi, Natalia, Bianka, Capri and me. #Mamba #Mambacita #GirlsDad #DaddysGirls #Family”
Besides the father-daughter duo, the other individuals were John Altobelli, 56, longtime baseball coach at Orange Coast College; his wife, Keri, 46; their daughter Alyssa, 13; Christina Mauser, 38, an assistant basketball coach at the Mamba Sports Academy; Sarah Chester, 45; Chester’s daughter Payton, 13; and the pilot, 50-year-old Ara Zobayan.
The helicopter was transporting the group from Orange County to a basketball tournament at his Mamba Sports Academy in Thousand Oaks. The 41-year-old retired NBA player was expected to coach his daughter Gianna’s team for their upcoming game.
As for the cause of the accident, the National Transportation Safety Board explained that “the chopper was not equipped with a terrain alarm system that could have warned the pilot he was approaching a hillside“.

Kobe and Vanessa met in 1999 when he was 20 years old and she was in high school. They got engaged when she turned 18 and the couple walked down the aisle in April 2001. The lovebirds went on to have 4 children together – daughters Natalia, 17, Gianna, 13, Bianka, 3, and Capri, 7 months.
Aliff Aziz is at it again, y’all! Recently, a few clips of the singer-actor getting involved in yet another altercation made its way online.
The 30-year-old was seen badly beaten by some unknown individuals, before he managed to flee. It’s believed that the incident took place nearby a restaurant located in Aliff’s home country, Singapore.
Kene halau baii balik jurong, sibuk kawasan orang, cari pasal ,mabuk sampai gaduh pic.twitter.com/lwm66qaA7s
“Guys, he’s fighting again. Aliff Aziz has a full tattoo at the back side of his body but he’s nothing but a weak coward,” wrote a Twitter user known as Pio_Dhurjana. He continued by writing, “He must be sent back to Jurong (Singapore). He likes to poke his nose into trouble, getting drunk and picking fights against people.”
A number of netizens have assumed that the “Sejuta Rasa Buat Adelia” was completely drunk at the time of the incident. However, not long after that, the commotion was resolved as the public came to his assistance.
Not only that, some of them have expressed their sympathy with the recent events involving Aliff. On the contrary, some have slammed the controversial figure and argued that they were not even surprised after the clip was spread online.
Looks like Aliff Aziz’s antics are getting out of control as time goes. What’s next?
Wait, is there a new couple alert with JJ Lin (林俊杰) and Tiffany Young (황미영)?
Fans have been shipping the Singaporean singer and former K-pop star together after they recently hung out in Taipei. The question is – is there more to their relationship than they’re revealing?
Source: Today Online
Many concert-goers were surprised to see the Girls’ Generation star in the audience during JJ’s concert at the Singapore National Stadium last month. The 38-year-old performer returned the favour last week when he showed up to support Tiffany’s “Open Hearts Eve” showcase in Taiwan on 19th January.
It’s no secret that JJ and Tiffany have been friends for some time now. The former even posted some snapshots of the Asian beauty visiting his production company JFJ Productions before her show. While a number of netizens taught they were holding hands, a closer inspection will show that Tiffany was just clasping her own hands.
False alarm 🙁
Nevertheless, don’t be too surprise if the duo release a duet in the near future. After all, they both share a mutual producer friend. Tiffany even publicly declared to JJ during her show, “Actually, I’ve been secretly practising ‘Beautiful’, your duet with G.E.M. Let’s perform it together next time when we have the chance!”
Speaking of music, JJ and fellow Singaporean songstress Stefanie Sun has just debuted a moving ballad as a tribute to frontline medical personnel battling the Wuhan virus. The new song is titled “Stay With You”. Stefanie penned the lyrics while JJ arranged and produced the music.
Enjoy:
The song sends a message of solidarity and hope, while giving hope that “tomorrow will be clearer” and that the “coldest days will pass”.
Looks like Nur Sajat has found herself a hot new flame. Coach Yin who?
The famed celebrity-entrepreneur shared with her followers a photo of her during a trip with her alleged new beau, a Lebanese native known as Jad Issa.
Jad’s previous Instagram post also came to light, where he uploaded a photo of a mirror selfie with the popular transexual figure, along with a sweet caption that reads, “There is always a reason to smile @nursajat23.” Sajat responded to the post by replying, “My habibi (lover),” before the comment got deleted for an unknown reason.
Ex-boyfriend Coach Yin was not having any of it, though. The 27-year-old hunk took to his Instagram to point out his shock upon hearing the sudden news. In this case, he claimed that he felt manipulated by the “Bobo Di Mana” singer.
It was revealed that Sajat had previously denied that the former Mr. Photogenic Lebanon 2019 winner was her new lover. Despite being disappointed, Coach Yin assured that he is happy with his life now. For those interested, read his full statement here:
It is understood that both Sajat and Coach Yin are no longer together as a couple. However, the 34-year-old assured that she’s more comfortable being friends with him.
Although it’s not new news that Bella Astillah is on friendly terms with Aliff Aziz, she has finally admit that they might be back together again.
This comes just as her ex-husband was involved in yet another public brawl. Ever since their divorce, the Singaporean actor-singer has been plagued with controversy after controversy.
There’s no doubt that Bella has been criticised for being too forgiving and not seeing clearly that a “a tiger never changes its stripes”. But for the Sabahan songstress, the priority isn’t her well-being but their child.
“To be honest, since we separated in May last year, we have never been hostile. It’s all for our son Mohamad Ayden Adrean. I’ve never hated Aliff. I saw how our divorce taught Aliff a lot and made him more mature. I’m not trying to prove to society that he has changed. For me, if he loves and cares about our son, that’s more than enough,” she told Berita Harian.
From Bella’s perspective, her son Ayden – who turns 3 this year – is always going to come first. “If patching things up with Aliff is the best decision for Ayden, I will accept it with an open heart. Ayden is so close to Aliff. Everytime we part ways, he would cry. This breaks my heart every time we come back from visiting Aliff in Singapore,” the 25-year-old star explained.
“Social media users only recognise the negative. They do not see it from a positive point of view, especially for Ayden’s benefit. They just know how to tell me to look for another guy or someone better. But we don’t know how things will turn out with another man. After all, in the current situation, I just want to focus on raising my child, there’s no time to think about substitutes,” Bella added.
Super Junior member Heechul (김희철) recently made his appearance in “Petionista Taengoo” V Live show hosted by one of his close celebrity friends, Taeyeon (태연) from Girls’ Generation.
During the session, both of the K-pop idols had a heart-to-heart chat on various topics, including the 36-year-old’s surprising news about him dating TWICE’s Momo (모모).
“The public as well as my fans must feel upset when the news (about his relationship) came out. But instead of being mad, they told me, ‘You’ve never caused any big issue in the past up until now so it’s still fine. Thank you so much and we will always cheer for you,’ That made me feel more guilty,” he told the “Spark” songstress.
“I’m only able to accept a certain amount of love from the public, but after this incident, so many fans showed me tons of support, and I felt sorry for receiving all of it. So I thought to myself that I might not have what it takes to be a public figure,” the “Mr. Simple” hit maker further added.
Taeyeon then responded by jokingly saying, “Crazy people like you should be celebrities.” Heechul then asked “Are you comforting me or teasing me?” Additionally, he revealed that he had to put to halt the release of his solo album “Flower Petal”. Heechul confessed that he’s afraid of people’s misunderstandings.
“I wanted to block anything that could be misinterpreted,” the talented entertainer clarified, before adding, “So I talked to our company that I’d release my album later. I was sad. But at the same time, I don’t think I made a wrong choice.” He further assured that he’s trying to be positive and is now more optimistic.
Check out the full clip of their heartwarming conversation here:
The coronavirus outbreak is getting more concerning, with the number of cases increasing each day.
There’s no doubt that people around the globe are taking precautionary steps to avoid from being infected by the disease. Most recently, a video that shows a panicked taxi driver in China kicking out an under the weather passenger from Wuhan has gone viral on Twitter.
The 1-minute and 34-second clip started with the driver asking the man where he wanted to go, which he responded by saying he wants to go to Renmin Hospital. When the passenger started coughing profusely, the middle-aged man asked him, “Why are you coughing? Where are you from?”
The passenger lied to him at first, claiming that he’s from Baoding. The driver didn’t believe him as his accent sounds different. The driver then pushed him to tell him the truth. “Have you been to Wuhan?” the driver asked the man.
The passenger finally admitted that he just came back from Wuhan and wanted to go to the hospital to seek for medical treatment. Without further delay, the driver then stopped his car and asked the passenger to get out. As soon as the man made his exit, the driver told the fellow passenger that sat at the back that he will lodge a report.
A number of netizens have left widespread reactions in response to the uncle’s actions towards the poor fellow. In this case, some of them argued that the driver is doing the right thing in kicking out the infected passenger. On the other hand, a few of them have slammed him for being inconsiderate.
To be honest, I might do the same. This virus spread so quick. No matter how bad I feel for him I would put myself first. For me, Protecting yourself is the best way to control the disease.
The taxi driver is selfish because he just send a sick person back into the public, he was already in the taxi so he could had take him and also get check at the same time rather than have the man come in contact with others. People are cowards to think about themselve
A driver was correct! This guy could stay at home and call emergency for being taken into the hospital. Rambling along the city he really spreads the mortal desease.
I think this was rude as hell. I understand people are scared but he should have asked him before he got in the car. If that were YOUR son or relative how would you feel if someone did that to you? Doesn't mean the young man was infected. And then to call the police? Smh.
There is a lot of fear going on in the world right now. The unknown is always scary, and right now that unknown is the coronavirus outbreak.
Cases of the Wuhan virus have been increasing at an alarming rate. According to The New York Times, the World Health Organization (WHO) has already declared the coronavirus a global health emergency after 9800 cases and 213 deaths have been confirmed.

Having said that, a few individuals have gone to great lengths to ensure that they don’t get infected. Some may call it “creative”, others just find it plain weird. A woman at Vancouver International Airport was recently spotted wearing a huge plastic bottle on their head.
Apparently a respiratory specialist from Peking University, Wang Guangfa, claimed that those who don’t protect their eyes properly might get infected with the coronavirus. The lady in pink (pictured left above) wasn’t the only one though.
OMG someone sent me this photo of a lady at YVR with a giant water bottle over her head because of the mask shortage and coronavirus hdkshddj pic.twitter.com/yLMe8j2QjN
"This is how they protect themselves from the large-scale outbreak of Wuhan coronavirus in mainland China… 5 litres water bottle…" – u/MaxwellMattW on Reddit
A mother-son duo were also spotted with also spotted on a public train wearing plastic bottles to cover their entire face. Perhaps they missed the memo that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention “does not advise wearing containers on your head to prevent a coronavirus infection“.
Water bottles aren’t the only items used as shields against the new deadly virus though. Some families at the airport were photographed with plastic bags covering the top half of their bodies. Doesn’t that make it even harder to breathe?
While all these images look comical, it shows just how desperate people have become. To find out more about the coronavirus and how to protect yourselves against it, feel free to visit WHO’s website.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) has declared the new coronavirus as a global emergency.
The announcement was made by director-general, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus in a press conference held in Geneva, Switzerland.

“The main reason for this declaration is not what’s happening in China but what’s happening in other countries,” said Dr. Tedros. What worries them is that the virus might attack countries with poor health system.
To date, over 213 people in China have died as a result of the outbreak. WHO further added that there had been 98 cases in 18 different countries, but no deaths had been reported yet. Most cases came from people who just came back from travelling to the city, according to BBC.

Additionally, the Chinese government received appraisal from Dr. Tedros for their “extraordinary measures” in preventing the outbreak from increasing. He also assured that the surprising declaration is not seen as a vote of disbelief against the mainland after several media outlets allegedly attempted to politicise WHO.
Precautionary steps have been taken by people across the world in order to avoid from being infected by the virus. This include closing the borders as well as cancelling flights from Wuhan. Giant companies namely Google, Ikea, Starbucks and Tesla have also stopped their operations for the time being.

Health and science correspondent analyst James Gallagher also voiced his support for WHO’s decision, saying that countries with medium to low sources of income will be negatively impacted by the disease.
This is not the first time for WHO to come out with such decision. Prior to this, the declaration was issued following the outbreak of Ebola virus in 2014 and 2019.
In another news, the recent reports about a 23-year-old Indian man who allegedly died in Malaysia after being infected by the virus was proven to be false. The Health Ministry took to Twitter to clarify the issue.
Berdasarkan maklumat yang diterima sehingga jam 6 petang, 30 Januari 2020, tiada rekod warganegara India berumur 23 tahun yang direkodkan oleh makmal yang menjalankan ujian pengesahan 2019-nCoV di Malaysia.#FakeNewspic.twitter.com/GMG19urXZP
The statement reads, “Based on information that we received as of 6pm on Jan 30 (Thursday), there is no record of any Indian citizen aged 23 recorded by our laboratory that tested positive for the 2019 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV). #FakeNews.”
According to an India-based media outlet, the grandfather of the “deceased” individual was informed by Malaysian authorities that his grandson had died of coronavirus on Wednesday (29th January). They further added that the man, Manir Hossain, had travelled to our country in 2018 and was working in a food stall.
4 months ago, Malaysia made international headlines for banning “Hustlers” as it was deemed “unsuitable for public screening”.
It appears that “Hustlers” is now being advertised with a new titled called “The Wall Street Girls” and is currently set for local release on 6th February 2020.
“Hustlers” or “The Wall Street Girls” can be found under the Coming Soon section in the TGV Cinemas website and app. Naturally, we’re wondering the same thing as Lowyat. Has the controversial film based on a true story by Jessica Pressler’s New York Magazine article titled, “The Hustlers at Scores”, finally receive the green light to screen locally?
Seeing as how the HD version is already available online, does anybody still care?
The question is still up in the air as nothing has been officially finalised yet. Having said that, even if the ban has been lifted, all the “inappropriate” scenes in “The Wall Street Girls” will still be heavily censored here.
