My classmate's cousin has been experiencing sexual abuse from her father from age 4-13, her father only stopped doing it 2 years ago.

The SA didn't have penetration, her father would rub his genital against hers. Her mother doesn't want her to report it or speak out about it and she told her that if she were to do that, she'll break apart the family and would be put up for adoption. As of now she's still a minor.

Here's my questions.

1. Her mom claims that if her father was convicted, his side of the family wouldn't be able to adopt her. Is that true?
2. Would it be harder for her to get her dad convicted since there wasn't any penetration and that it happened years ago?
3. Is proof required and if so what proof does she need to provide?

If possible please give some advice on how to handle this, we want to get her out of the house as soon as possible since the past 2 years she had to yell and scream to get him to not do it again, so we don't know when he'll do it again. TY

So a foreigner wanted to buy my motorbike. What are the procedures do i need to do? Do i need to go JPJ with him? Or a runner is able to do it all for him? Roadtax and insurance is still valid until next month.

Hello all,

My wife and I will be travelling to Malaysia for 7 days in mid-Dec from Canada and we just learned that my wife is pregnant. She will be in her 6th week of pregnancy while travelling.

My questions are:

1. Should we skip Cameron Highlands due to curvy and steep roads? If not, which mode of transportation is good? We were thinking of a bus but now concerned if it might cause nausea and with car, there is risk of being stuck in a traffic jam / heavy rains.

2. What are some good locations that are less physically intense

3. Are doctors readily available if needed?

Our planned itinerary is in the following way -

• Day 1: Arrive at KL from Singapore and go to Genting Highlands. Night stay at Genting
• Day 2: KL sightseeing
• Day 3-4: Cameron Highlands
• Day 5-6: Penang
• Day 7: Fly from Penang to Singapore

Any advice you could share would be great!

just what is inside their brain

Well, the 3 weeks I’ve been in SEA has been amazing and Malaysian people are truly amazing. As a visiting Canadian, you have been amazing hosts! However, I’ve picked up food poisoning here in Cameron heights and I have a bus ride to Penang to catch to fly to Bangkok. I leave Bangkok on Dec 6th and I’m scared I won’t recover in time. Should I go to the hospital and get diagnosed with something and potentially miss my flight? It’s a tough situation and I’ve had diarrhea and throwing up since 7 pm.

Yo all, as a pokemon maniac, I have recently came across this one guy looking for investors / partner on xiaohongshu for his "Pokemon Gym Leader-Concept Store" in Kuala Lumpur. With his background from legal, having few shops like Omakase, Saloon and Debt-recovery company (tho he refused to disclose, nor about his founding team), he plans to open 8 gym leaders shop in KL area, including pavillion, bukit jalil, sunway, cheras etc, and here's what he has mentioned:

1. His concept has been authorised by Pokemon company from mina**to ( I dun understand what he said, but something sound like this), and the company has agreed to bear all expenses on the 8 gym leader-concept stores to ensure pokemon style
2. His gym leader concept shop is a MIX-like shop, selling pokemon products and snacks.
3. To be able to challenge each store-manager (the gym leader), customers (pokemon lovers) will jave to spend at least RM96 per bill, and based on 150 customers per day, the investor can expect to reach break even point in 1-2 months. And winning the mini game (he cant actually explain in detail) can earn the customer a badge which will entitle the customer the chance to challenge Elite 4.
4. Cost to pay as an investor includes RM50k to join his franchise, and rental to open shop in a mall, approximately RM16,800 per month for Sunway Putra.

Tho there are a lot of questions that he could not answer in detail such as market analysis, i would still like to believe that he is rather not prepared than a scammer scheme, can I get opinions to fact check if statement 1&4 are correct? And does this business model sounds like a YES to our fellow Pokemon Fans here? Would you spend for business like such?

Hi, I’m looking for advice from anyone with experience buying motorcycle parts from overseas. I’m planning to purchase new sprockets from Australia since the specific ones I want aren’t available in Malaysia. The shop has no issues shipping them, but I’ll need to handle the customs and tax charges myself, which I’m fine with.

However, I’d like to understand the process better and what steps are involved, what to expect with customs clearance, and any tips to make the process smoother. Thanks in advance!

Context: I'm a Part 1 here in Malaysia. I have been working for almost 1 & a half year as an AA. I've planned to continue my Part 2 locally.

G'day, I always have that dream to work overseas(EU,NA, or maybe AU/NZ). But being in the field of construction, or architect for this case, isnt one of the most easiest career to have something MNC kinda "path progression"(to be able to transfer overseas somehow?).

Lately, Work & Travel seems like a huge trend. I'm thinking bout applying for one after my masters. Here, i'm wondering if it's possible to you know, find a job there while I was on this WH visa.

What are the chances of me succeeding with this plan? I have literally no idea how do people progress their career overseas in this field(only 1 i know theres chances are those who did their part 2 at said countries). Im looking into migrating as well. Please advice guys/girls.

Tl:dr How to find a job overseas in the architectural field.

This is a rant & I've had it in my heart for a long term so today I would finally like to speak out.

You know how some of you have seen videos of Singaporean cars throwing rubbish out of their cars in Johor? Or pumping RON95? Or acting like hooligans on the road here? Or that Singaporean lady that tried to bribe a police officer only to realize it's a Singaporean police?

You pissed off Chinese tourists throwing their overalls at the masjid In Putrajaya? Or smoking everywhere despite no-smoking signs?

They behave this way because we don't give a sh*t about ourselves. Our politicians corrupt to high heavens & they get let out with less than a slap on the wrist. We litter at our own streets. Our public education system is collapsing & creating youths that are not prepared for the new age workforce. We bicker among ourselves because of racial politics. We deserve everything that they throw at us because we can't wake up as a cohesive nation. We deserve it as we don't make our politicians accountable.

We are treated like this because we can't rise above ourselves as Malaysians.

I'm f3 and losing my mind over what package class I should take for f4.

I am very, very interested in becoming an investigator or getting a job related to crimes. NOT LAWYER. CSI, maybe.

Also, whenever I tell this to anyone, they'd always say I'm at a disadvantage because I'm a girl. Going into crime related jobs would be hard for me. do I need a reality check ? how hard and how long is it going to take? Pls h e l p

I guess that sign means “everybody smoke here” now hehe. I passby here everyday and somehow this is the popular place for aholes to smoke

Hello.

British national here.

I understand that only one parent can accompany kids enrolled in an international school on a guardian visa. We have three kids but only 2 can enrol as the youngest is a baby. Does this mean that the baby cannot come with her mum?

Also (because only one parent is allowed under guardian visa) cards up front, I plan to come but on tourist visa and do visa runs every 3 months. It's not ideal but I don't think there is any other way. The MM2H is out of our reach for financial reasons. Any thoughts or comments on this? I know Thailand there are no issues with visa runs but how "hot" on it is Malaysia?

Thanks in advance

Hello, this is my first time posting here. Despite coming from the neighboring country, I grew up watching Tv3, TV9 and the Astro Channels. I have always been a huge fan of Astro Warna. Its my go to channel after work. It’s sad to see cable TV slowly dying; truly the end of an era.
