Malaysia went overboard in welcoming Trump, says PAS

US president Donald Trump joined cultural performers in a brief dance on his arrival in Kuala Lumpur on Sunday morning. PETALING JAYA: PAS has taken issue with the manner in which US President Donald Trump was welcomed upon his arrival in Malaysia this morning to attend the Asean Summit. The party’s secretary-general, Takiyuddin Hassan, said Malaysia went “overboard” when they rolled out the red carpet for Trump. “It rubs salt into the wounds of the people in Gaza who are still suffering,” he said, adding that it was insensitive in view of the ongoing humanitarian disaster in the Middle East. Trump was greeted by Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim and senior officials upon disembarking from Air Force One at 10.06am. The US president appeared in a cordial mood, joining cultural performers in a brief dance before waving the national flags of Malaysia and the US. “We should not adopt such an approach when interacting with him,” Takiyuddin said. He reminded the government that any negotiations or trade deals signed with the US must be based on principles of respect and justice. “Bilateral ties must be guided by this principle and equal economic benefits,” he said. PAS had previously staged several protests over Trump’s expected arrival.

Ministry of Home Affairs urges married couples to verify their marriage records

Staff Reporter THE Ministry of Home Affairs, Immigration, Safety and Security (MHAISS) is urging all married couples to visit their nearest Ministry office to confirm that their marriage records have been properly submitted and registered by their Marriage Officers. The Ministry’s Executive Director, Nghidinua Daniel, explained that, in accordance with Section 40(2) of the Births, Marriages and Deaths Registration Act, 1963 (Act No. 81 of 1963), every Marriage Officer is legally required to retain a copy of the marriage register for their own records and to transmit the original marriage register to the Ministry within three days of the marriage being solemnised. However, Daniel revealed that some Marriage Officers have not consistently submitted marriage registers to the Ministry as required by law. “This late or non-submission resulted in some marriages not being registered on time in the Ministry’s system or not at all. To ensure completeness and accuracy of the national marriage register, the Ministry encourages all married couples to visit their nearest MHAISS office to verify whether their marriage records were submitted to the Ministry by the Marriage Officers and whether they have been duly registered in the Ministry’s system. This verification process is important to safeguard the legal recognition of marriages and to maintain the accuracy of national civil records,” Daniel explained. He further assured the public that the Ministry remains dedicated to maintaining the integrity and reliability of the country’s civil registration and vital statistics system, and urged all citizens to verify official information through the Ministry’s official communication channels. “As part of this commitment, MHAISS will continue to implement measures aimed at verifying, updating, and strengthening marriage records to ensure that every legitimate marriage in Namibia is accurately recorded and protected. The Ministry urges all citizens to verify official information through its official communication channels before acting on unverified messages circulating on social media,” Daniel added.

If your answer to that is "Well, don't wear them when it rains or snows, then," I would only point out that they're the main pants available right now. Yeah, now you know how I felt through the whole skinny leg trend. Cry me a damn river and use your tighter old clothes as under layers. If you dress for the weather you have, you'll rarely have a problem. foo monkey (2) Funniest I've lost a lot of weight the last few years and decided to get my next set of skinny (ok, not so skinny) jeans professionally hemmed.

I've seen jean dresses with less wingspan. So this old man has to cede the stage to the kids. Those insane designs by 90s kids trying to win free JNCOs in a design contest that we're all rejected are now reality, because those kids grew up, got jobs as designers at JNCO, and dusted off their old trapper keepers to bring us the current crop. tricycleracer (1) Funniest What happened to apple bottom jeans?

The Florida senator spent the first roughly 10 minutes of his rally in Dallas, Texas, on Friday morning relentlessly attacking Trump, including reading off misspelled tweets and turning Trump's attacks back on the reality TV star. "He called me Mr. Meltdown," Rubio said, smiling and saying that Thursday night during the commercial breaks, "he went backstage, he was having a meltdown." He said Trump had "one of those little sweat mustaches," borrowing Trump's "sweating" line of attack against Rubio, and said he wanted a full-length mirror. "Maybe to make sure his pants weren't wet," Rubio said.

The next iPad Pro could be the first to get vapor chamber cooling

The next iPad Pro could be the first to get vapor chamber cooling

The iterative upgrades for iPads may not be enticing enough to warrant a new purchase every year, but Apple may have a particularly cool upgrade to convince users to shell out for the next iPad Pro. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple is planning to include a vapor chamber for the upcoming iPad Pro that's due to ship with the M6 chip. We've already seen the vapor chamber included in the iPhone 17 Pro models, helping to boost cooling and performance. While an iPad's larger surface area makes for greater heat dissipation than an iPhone, this cooling system should make the tablet more capable when it comes to demanding tasks, like gaming, video editing or AI apps. Gurman also predicts that Apple could market the vapor chamber cooling as another way to differentiate between the iPad models. Apple previously improved the cooling performance of iPad Pros with the M4 generation, which included a new copper heat sink. With the vapor chamber, Apple is borrowing a concept already found in other smartphones from Samsung and Google. Samsung has even included this style of liquid cooling in its Galaxy Tab S9, which came out in 2023. As for the first potential iPad Pro with a vapor chamber, Gurman said he expects Apple to follow its typical 18-month release schedule, meaning the M6 iPad Pro with improved heat performance could come out sometime in 2027.

Chinese Communist Party Making Millions in UK Gov't Contracts for Migrant Hotels: Report

A report from the Inter-Parliamentary Alliance on China (IPAC) has found that the Chinese Communist Party is directly profiting from Britain’s migrant hotel scheme to house supposed asylum seekers, many of whom break into the country illegally via the English Channel from the beaches of France. According to the IPAC audit of the Sino-British economic relationship, the CCP, or entities and people under its control, currently hold £190 billion in UK assets, including schools, national infrastructure such as Heathrow airport, wind farms, power networks, billions of shares in FTSE-listed companies, and properties, including migrant hotels. Among the Chinese-owned assets listed in the report include three migrant hotels in Britain that have collectively been awarded millions in Home Office contracts, The Sunday Times reported. One of the firms, Kew Green Hotels, a £300 million business which owns and operates over 60 hotels, is entirely owned by the Communist Party through Beijing’s China Tourism Group Corporation. It currently owns Holiday Inns in Kent and Cheshire, both of which faced anti-migrant hotel protests in August following nationwide outrage over the government scheme and concern for the safety of communities following the sexual assault of a 14-year-old girl by an Ethiopian hotel migrant in Epping. The report estimated that the two migrant hotels, both of which are block booked by the state to house alleged asylum seekers, have earned the Chinese firm around £15 million through Home Office contracts. Another Chinese cutout, Campanile, an asset of the Shanghai city government, also owns a hotel in Cardiff, which has been housing supposed asylum seekers for the British government since 2022. China is not only benefitting from British government contracts to house migrants, with companies in China being behind the means by which illegals enter the UK. Indeed, most of the small rubber dinghies used by people smuggling networks operating along the coastline of France to ferry illegals into British waters are produced in China. As of late, Chinese made “super dinghies” have become a preferred model for the human trafficking gangs, given that they allow for more passengers per trip, thus increasing profits. According to The Telegraph, small boat crossings averaged seven passengers in 2018, compared to an average of 61 this year. In December, the National Crime Agency said that it had “conversations” with Beijing about potentially limiting the supply of outboard engines to hinder people smuggling operations, given that most were produced in China. However, there has seemingly been little progress in confronting the human trafficking operation, with the number of small boat illegals arriving in Britain this year already surpassing the total for 2024. The disclosure of Chinese involvement in the hotel migrant scheme comes amid growing criticism of the leftist Labour Party government’s stance towards Beijing. Earlier this month, the Starmer government was accused of kowtowing to Beijing after it was reported that Downing Street had hindered the prosecution of two alleged Chinese spies for fear of damaging the diplomatic and economic relationship with China. Shadow Home Secretary Priti Patel told The Sunday Times: “Labour are bending over backwards to appease Beijing. Having wrecked our economy, they are now going begging abroad, putting our economic and national security up for sale to the highest bidder.” Follow Kurt Zindulka on X: Follow @KurtZindulka or e-mail to: kzindulka@breitbart.com
