Asendia Courier Partner

jimbet1337 — Mon, 03 Feb 2025 11:28:49 +0800

Quick query as I couldn't find much information on the web

I have package on the way from US to MY and the merchant is using Asendia. Anyone who's familiar with this courier, do you know who's Asendia courier partner in Malaysia? (Poslaju, J&T, Ninjavan etc)? Because I don't think Asendia has business presence in Malaysia.

Thank you.

Quiet Quitting trend

jimbet1337 — Fri, 05 Aug 2022 12:04:05 +0800

May not applicable to high performance employees with high level resilience and EQ but here goes...

The "definition", you are not actually resigning but:

QUOTE

“You’re still performing your duties, but you’re no longer subscribing to the hustle culture mentality that work has to be your life – the reality is, it’s not and your worth as a person is not defined by your labour.

That could mean ignoring work emails and calls outside of working hours, and leaving the office on time.

It could also mean declining projects that aren’t part of your job description.

These are all ways “quiet quitters” claim are crucial steps to avoid burnout and regain some work-life balance.”

Amazon UK

jimbet1337 — Fri, 10 Jul 2020 09:11:36 +0800

This is a very specific question, anyone bought anything from Amazon UK in the month of May or June or July, how quick is the shipping?

I bought something in May, even I picked Amazon Priority Shipping, which they normally use DHL, not shipped until today. It has been 2 months. Checked with CS a few times, about once in 2 weeks, they can't even provide the date.

Anyone encountered the same?

MACC probes RM90mil alleged payment to PAS

MACC probes RM90mil alleged payment to PAS
Tuesday, 5 Feb 2019,11:01 PM MYT

PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) has opened an investigation paper following a report lodged by an individual that RM90mil was allegedly paid to PAS, Free Malaysia Today reported.

“We have classified the case under the Anti-Money Laundering, Anti-Terrorism Financing and Proceeds of Unlawful Activities Act 2001,” a source told the online news portal.

The source said the MACC received the report from police on Tuesday (Feb 5) afternoon.

Earlier, Amanah deputy Youth chief Faiz Fadzil urged the authorities to open an investigation against PAS to determine if the allegation that the Islamist party received RM90mil from Umno or funds from 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB) was true.

He made the call after PAS president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang opted for an out-of-court settlement with Sarawak Report editor Clare Rewcastle Brown.

Terengganu Amanah chairman Datuk Raja Kamarul Bahrin Shah has also called the PAS leadership to give a full explanation why it opted for an out-of-court settlement with Rewcastle Brown over the defamation suit.

Abdul Hadi sued Rewcastle Brown for libel over an article she published on Aug 6, 2016, alleging the party received RM90mil in bribes from Umno.
She filed a counterclaim in October 2017 but last Friday (Feb 1), the case was settled out of court.

According to PAS treasurer Razman Zakaria, the increasing cost of legal fees is one reason why PAS opted for the out-of-court settlement.

Najib also said that the current Pakatan Harapan administration had thoroughly investigated Umno's bank accounts since GE14.

"If there was any payment from me or Umno, the Pakatan-led government would have frozen either Abdul Hadi's or PAS' bank accounts," he said on his Facebook post.
