Overwork props up consumption, but it papers over the real problem an economy not producing enough high-productivity, well-paid jobs, he told theSun.

Escalating food, housing and transport costs, compounded by fuel and electricity subsidy adjustments, continue to erode purchasing power. Meanwhile, high household leverage leaves M40 families vulnerable to rate hikes and income shocks, she told theSun

KOTA TINGGI A 75-year-old man was detained by officers from the Johor Islamic Religious Department (JAINJ) after being caught purchasing lottery numbers at a gambling premises on Wednesday evening.He probably didn't dream this one up: being caught by religious enforcement officers while buying lottery numbers he believed came from his dreams.The man, who lives alone in a small village home and survives on RM600 monthly government aid, was nabbed by JAINJ officers on Wednesday evening while spending RM8 at a gambling outlet.Initial investigations revealed that the man admitted to gambling for more than 40 years and is still trying his luck despite facing financial difficulties," a JAINJ spokesperson reportedly said.Apparently, his lucky numbers often came from dreams or even accident scenes.Every month, he will buy numbers, especially if he has a good dream or witnesses a road accident involving vehicles."If a car overturns, it means the number he wants to buy must also be reversed, he told officers, still in full belief of his mystical system.The elderly man admitted he knew gambling was against Islamic teachings but said he couldnt stop.Im worried the number I frequently buy might come out if I stop, he said.Officers even had to check his home to confirm a guarantor since he has no close family around.The case is being investigated under Section 18 of the Johor Syariah Criminal Offences Enactment, which could mean a fine up to RM3,000, two years in jail, or both.

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 8 Perikatan Nasional (PN) has called on the government to launch a Royal Commission of Inquiry...

SHAH ALAM Perikatan Nasional (PN) menuntut supaya kerajaan segera menubuhkan Suruhanjaya Siasatan Diraja (RCI) bagi menyiasat sepenuhnya skandal besar membabitkan dokumen palsu pemain naturalisasi yang dikemukakan oleh Persatuan Bolasepak Malaysia (FAM).Ketua Whip PN, Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan berkata, siasatan menyeluruh perlu dilaksanakan bagi mengenal pasti semua pihak yang terlibat dalam penyediaan serta pengesahan dokumen palsu, termasuk peranan yang dimainkan oleh agensi kerajaan seperti Jabatan Pendaftaran Negara (JPN).Beliau turut menggesa Kementerian Dalam Negeri (KDN) dan Kementerian Belia dan Sukan (KBS) meneliti kemungkinan wujud unsur rasuah, salah guna kuasa atau campur tangan politik dalam isu berkenaan."Siasatan yang telus menjadi lebih mendesak apabila FAM sendiri dalam kenyataan bertarikh 11 Jun 2025 mengucapkan terima kasih kepada Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, dalam hal berkaitan dokumentasi pemain."Laporan Persekutuan Bolasepak Antarabangsa (FIFA) amat jelas pemalsuan ini bukanlah kesilapan teknikal, tetapi satu penipuan terancang," katanya dalam kenyataan media pada Rabu.Tambah beliau, laporan FIFA menunjukkan kelemahan ketara dalam sistem semakan dokumen bukan sahaja di peringkat FAM, tetapi juga dalam kalangan agensi kerajaan seperti JPN dan KDN."Kelemahan ini menggambarkan Malaysia seolah-olah gagal mempertahankan integriti serta kejujuran dalam urusan rasmi antarabangsa," katanya.Menurut Takiyuddin, FIFA dilaporkan telah berjaya mendapatkan sijil kelahiran asal nenek moyang pemain-pemain terbabit daripada Pejabat Pendaftaran di negara asal masing-masing, termasuk di Sepanyol, Argentina, Brazil dan Belanda.Sebaliknya, dokumen yang dikemukakan oleh FAM didapati telah diubah suai, dengan tempat lahir asal di luar negara ditukar kepada negeri-negeri di Malaysia seperti Pulau Pinang, Melaka, Johor dan Sarawak."Lebih mengejutkan, JPN Malaysia dilaporkan mengaku tidak pernah menerima dokumen asal pemain-pemain berkenaan, sebaliknya hanya mengeluarkan salinan sijil berdasarkan maklumat sekunder atau dengar cakap (hearsay)."Pendedahan ini mengubah sifat kes daripada kesilapan pentadbiran biasa kepada penipuan dan pemalsuan dokumen rasmi negara suatu kesalahan serius yang mencemarkan maruah serta reputasi Malaysia di mata dunia," katanya.Tambah beliau, seperti yang ditegaskan oleh FIFA, tindakan FAM tersebut jelas merupakan satu bentuk penipuan yang melanggar prinsip kejujuran dan integriti sukan antarabangsa."Jika FIFA sendiri boleh mendapatkan sijil asal dari luar negara dengan mudah, maka alasan bahawa FAM tidak dapat menyemak kesahihan dokumen adalah tidak munasabah dan tidak boleh diterima," tegasnya.

PEMERHATI sukan dan bekas Exco Persatuan Bolasepak Malaysia (FAM), Datuk Christopher Raj menggesa FAM supaya segera mengadakan pemilihan presiden baharu tanpa perlu menunggu hingga tahun depan susulan krisis pemalsuan dokumen pemain warisan yang kini mencetuskan masalah besar dalam arena bola sepak negara.Menurutnya, FAM kini seolah-olah beroperasi tanpa arah tuju yang jelas berikutan kekosongan tampuk kepimpinan, sekali gus menimbulkan persoalan tentang siapa yang akan mengetuai usaha rayuan kepada Persekutuan Bolasepak Antarabangsa (FIFA) berhubung hukuman berat yang dikenakan terhadap badan induk itu."FAM mesti segera memilih presiden baharu
