China planes intercepted!

PETALING JAYA: Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) fighter jets were scrambled to intercept 16 People’s Liberation Army Air Force planes over Malaysian airspace yesterday, the RMAF has revealed.

In a statement, RMAF said the “suspicious” flight of the 16 air force planes were detected by the Air Defence Centre in Sarawak at 11.53am.

“The air force planes were flying in tactical formation.”

The Chinese planes were detected flying between 23,000 feet and 27,000 feet above sea level at a speed of 290 knots entering Malaysian Maritime Zone (ZMM).

When there was no response from planes to turn back from the Malaysian Air Traffic control to turn back, and they instead headed towards Sarawak waters, RMAF scrambled Hawk 208 fighter jets from the 6th Squadron of the Labuan Air Base to intercept the foreign plane.

The Chinese planes eventually turned around and left in the same direction they entered the ZMM.

RMAF said the PLAAF planes were identified as Ilyushin Il-76 and Xian Y-20 strategic transport planes which can carry out various missions.

“This incident is a serious threat to our sovereignty and the safety of flights in our airspace.”

RMAF added that its conduct was based on the country’s laws and international rules of engagement of the International Civil Aviation Organization and National Air Defence Strategy.

“The foreign ministry has been informed of this incident.”

Last year, it was reported that Chinese coast guard and navy ships intruded into Malaysian waters 89 times between 2016 to 2019.

The intrusions happened in the hotly disputed South China Sea.

BINTULU, May 19 — Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin has given approval for Sarawak to purchase a million doses of the Sinovac Covid-19 vaccine from China, Chief Minister Datuk Patinggi Abang Johari Openg said today.

He said the approval was given in a meeting he had with the prime minister last week.

“Sarawak will buy 500,000 doses under the first phase and another 500,000 doses under the second phase,” he told reporters after being briefed at the Bintulu Hospital on the Covid-19 infections situation in Bintulu Division.

“Another thing that has been approved by the prime minister is that we will rope in gazetted private hospitals to give vaccination to the people, especially urban areas,” he said, adding that the fund for this purpose will come from the state government.

However, he said the private hospitals will charge standardised fees for the vaccinations.

Abang Johari stressed that the procurement of the vaccines was to expedite the vaccination programme as the state government believes it was the only way to curb the spread of Covid-19.

He advised those who have been vaccinated or will be getting one later to exercise self-discipline for their own health protection.

The chief minister also said between January and May this year, the state government has spent RM151 million to help pay for the cost of medical equipment used by the government hospitals and the accommodation for persons under quarantine in hotels.

He added that for the whole of last year, the government spent RM91 million.

The chief minister said the total amount spent last year and this year was not part of the over RM3 billion given out under the Bantuan Khas Sarawakku Sayang (BKSS) to help the people and businesses cushion the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.

“We will also help to set up an interim extension building in Bintulu because many patients from Mukah, Dalat and Belaga are also being admitted to the Bintulu Hospital, and this is putting a lot of pressure on the demands for beds due to insufficient number,” he said.

He said the interim extension will be built at the compound of the Bintulu Hospital to accommodate chronic cases, adding that he is leaving it to the Bintulu Hospital to decide on the number of beds.

“For us, lives are more important. We have also bought ventilators for Sibu and Miri hospitals,” he said, expressing his concern that the number of deaths due to Covid-19 infection has reached 230 today compared to just 19 for the whole of last year.

Why Wee Ka Siong CANCEL Anthony Loke decisi

0501024 — Wed, 18 Nov 2020 16:02:36 +0800

PARLIAMENT | Former transport minister Anthony Loke (DAP-Seremban) questioned the government’s move to revoke an exemption in the nation’s cabotage policy that was meant to expedite the repair of undersea cables that connect Malaysia’s internet infrastructure to the rest of the world.
He said he granted the exemption effective April 1 last year after being urged by internet industry players, including government-linked companies, and also after consulting transport ministry officials and their counterparts at the Communications and Multimedia Ministry.
However, he said his successor Wee Ka Siong had quietly revoked the exemption. The revocation was gazetted on Nov 13 and came into effect on Nov 15.

“I wish to ask the Transport Ministry, what were the government’s considerations in cancelling the exemption in the cabotage policy for cable repair work beginning Nov 13 as gazetted in PU (B) 592 recently?
“Were the views and requests from the local telecommunications and internet industry taken into account? Was priority given to Malaysia’s interest in building an internet industry in the era of the fourth industrial revolution?" Loke (above) asked.
The DAP national organising secretary asked why Wee had seemingly made a unilateral decision without taking into account the concerns of the Communications and Multimedia Industry, the Science, Technology, and Innovation Ministry, the International Trade and Industry Minister, and others.

He questioned why Wee had made such an important policy change quietly without any public statements to explain why the Transport Ministry made a U-turn on the cabotage exemption which, he said, was well-received by the industry in 2019.
Loke was speaking during the debate session of Budget 2021 in the Dewan Rakyat today.
The cabotage policy is a protectionist policy intended to maintain Malaysia’s shipping and shipbuilding industries and thereby reducing dependence on foreign shipping.
Under the policy, only a Malaysian-registered and owned vessel may ply domestic shipping routes in Malaysia unless an exemption is granted.
The policy had been blamed for higher prices of goods in Sabah and Sarawak compared to Peninsular Malaysia, since goods would have to be transhipped through Port Klang before being delivered to the two states.

Loke said he granted the exemption to give Malaysia an edge in the lucrative data centre industry as technology companies pour billions of dollars annually to set up data centres at strategic locations connected by submarine cables.
According to the website submarinecablemap.com, Malaysia is currently connected to 22 submarine cable networks (photo) with landing points in places like Mersing in Johor, Kuantan in Pahang, and Malacca.

Loke said Singapore is often the favoured option for submarine cable landings and regional data centres due to its strategic location and government incentives, but Malaysia still has an advantage in terms of lower land and operating costs, and an even better location.
“However, a factor that has become our weakness is the cabotage policy that has caused delays in repair works when submarine cables are damaged in Malaysian waters.
“When the cables are damaged, it could take more than a month before repair works could even begin,” he said.
He also quoted a 2016 report by the International Cable Protection Committee stating Malaysia’s repair performance is unsatisfactory with an average lead time of 20 days.

During a visit by industry representatives late last year, Loke said he was informed that there are only 60 vessels capable of undertaking the repair works, and none of them are Malaysian-flagged.
He quoted a report by internet industry consulting firm Analysis Mason saying that it is also impractical for each country to have its own submarine cable repair ships, as these are highly-specialised vessels and the utilisation rate would be low if it could only serve one economy.
“I am satisfied that it is reasonable to grant the request for more leeway for submarine cable repair ships and it would have a minimum business impact for the local shipping industry.

“For information, no Malaysian vessel fulfils the technical criteria to undertake submarine cable repairs – this fact was presented by Malaysian telecommunications companies including TM and was supported by the Communications and Multimedia Ministry,” he said.
He emphasised that the exemption only applies to repair works, as the installation of new cables is not deemed urgent and would still be subject to the cabotage policy.
He added that the exemption was well-received by industry players as it would cut the lead time for repairs by at least 14 days.
Several international technology companies have even decided to invest billions of ringgit to lay new submarine cables that would land in Malaysia and set up new data centres in the country, he said.

0501024 — Tue, 12 May 2020 21:50:19 +0800

Hi guys. Just want to ask for opinions.

Anyone familiar with labour law feel free to comment ya...

Story is like this... Right after MCO, co said staff all take pay cut to help the company. So April pay is 80% . Now, i think the company seeing the industry is going to take about 1-2years to gain traction again, marked 4 pax to leave the company, given 2 mth notice. so considered til 15 July as official letter will be out this Friday.

Is there anything that can be done to recoup that 20%salary x 3 mths (Apr/May/June)? Coz to me it feels like co planned it. reduce salary, staff agree, then fire.

At average of 6.5-7k salary, its easily rm4200 there, and it wont be easy to look for job in this current economy...

-WTA- Microsoft Outlook

501024 — Thu, 21 Sep 2017 18:56:54 +0800

Hi guys,

Ive been using Outlook 2013 for the longest time.

All of a sudden, it stopped working. I can send emails from it, but it wont show on my laptop SENT folder. However it shows on my phones SENT folder.

I can receive mails with no issue.

So I thought i would remove my account and re-install outlook.

After reinstalling, everything works fine EXCEPT, I cant send and reply emails.
Because the "From" section, where it should be "myname@domain.com.my", is empty and I cannot type in it. There is this:-
**preparing photo**

Anyone have any idea whats going on?

TIA
