KUALA LUMPUR - For many Malaysians, the daily commute by motorcycle or car is a routine necessity, yet road accidents remain a constant and often fatal threat.Recent statistics reveal that between March 14, 2024, and March 18, 2025, a road accident occurred approximately every 50 seconds in Malaysia, with a fatality recorded roughly every one hour and 56 minutes.Beyond traffic accidents, falls, workplace mishaps, and sports injuries contribute significantly to the national burden of musculoskeletal trauma.At Sunway Medical Centre (SMC), Sunway City, Consultant Emergency Physician Dr Mohd Khalis Abdul Rahim and Consultant Orthopaedic and Advanced Musculoskeletal Trauma Surgeon Dr Mohamad Hafiz Mohmad Hassim work in tandem to manage these critical cases.In the high-stakes environment of the Trauma Bay, Dr Mohd Khalis explained that the team employs the ABCDE approach (Airway, Breathing, Circulation, Disability, and Exposure) to prioritise and treat life-threatening issues immediately.He noted that trauma care is a multidisciplinary effort involving emergency doctors, neurosurgeons, orthopaedic surgeons, radiologists, and anaesthetists."Its about saving life first, then the limb

PENGURUS Manchester City, Pep Guardiola memilih pendekatan santai dalam mengendalikan tekanan perebutan kejuaraan Liga Perdana Inggeris (EPL) selepas kemenangan 2-1 ke atas Newcastle United di Stadium Etihad, awal pagi Ahad.Guardiola secara berseloroh menyarankan pemainnya menikmati cuti singkat dengan koktel caipirinha dan daiquiri sebelum kembali memberi tumpuan penuh kepada baki musim, ketika City merapatkan jurang kepada dua mata di belakang pendahulu liga, Arsenal.Dalam perlawanan itu, pemain muda Nico OReilly mencuri tumpuan apabila meledak dua gol pada minit ke-14 dan ke-27, manakala Newcastle hanya mampu merapatkan kedudukan menerusi jaringan Lewis Hall.Keputusan itu menyaksikan City kini mengumpul 56 mata dengan perbezaan gol +31, satu gol di belakang Arsenal.Arsenal kendalian Mikel Arteta berpeluang melebarkan jurang kepada lima mata sekiranya menewaskan Tottenham Hotspur tengah malam ini, namun mereka akan beraksi satu perlawanan lebih.Dengan pertemuan terus antara kedua-dua pasukan dijadualkan pada 18 April, persaingan kejuaraan kekal terbuka.City seterusnya dijadualkan bertemu Leeds United hujung minggu ini.Guardiola mengakui majoriti pemainnya belum pernah melalui tekanan perebutan gelaran di bawah kendaliannya, namun percaya skuadnya mampu menyesuaikan diri."Pemain perlu menikmatinya dan melalui pengalaman ini sendiri

PENGENDALI Tottenham Hotspur, Igor Tudor menegaskan pasukannya bersedia untuk menambah derita Arsenal yang kini mula goyah dalam kempen pemburuan kejuaraan liga.Walaupun mengakui Spurs kini berdepan prestasi kurang memuaskan, Tudor percaya anak-anak buahnya masih mampu mengambil kesempatan sepenuhnya ke atas Arsenal yang kini sedang melalui fasa getir yang mendebarkan.Skuad kendalian Mikel Arteta itu hanya merekodkan dua kemenangan daripada tujuh perlawanan EPL terakhir mereka.Malah, The Gunners turut mensia-siakan kelebihan dua gol sebelum diikat seri oleh pasukan corot, Wolves baru-baru ini.Keadaan itu menyaksikan Manchester City berpeluang merapatkan jurang kepada hanya dua mata di belakang pendahulu liga itu sebelum aksi derbi pada Ahad sekali gus bakal memberi tekanan hebat memuncak buat Arteta."Adakah ini masa yang sesuai menentang Arsenal di tempat sendiri? Ia sentiasa menjadi masa yang terbaik untuk bermain menentang Arsenal di halaman kami."Kami perlu menjelmakan watak pasukan yang kami mahukan

PENGENDALI Selangor FC, Kim Pan-gon bakal berdepan ujian getir apabila skuad bimbingannya dijadual menentang Kuching City FC dalam aksi Liga Super di Stadium Majlis Bandaraya Petaling Jaya (MBPJ) malam ini.Bekas ketua jurulatih kebangsaan itu kini masih memegang rekod cemerlang tanpa kalah dalam tujuh perlawanan sejak mula membimbing skuad Gergasi Merah pada bulan lalu.Bagaimanapun, Kuching City bukanlah lawan yang boleh dipandang enteng memandangkan kelab dari Borneo itu kini tampil sebagai salah satu pencabar utama dalam saingan liga musim ini.Selangor kini menduduki tangga kedua liga dengan 32 mata, manakala Kuching City mengekori rapat di kedudukan ketiga dengan 31 mata.Pan-gon bagaimanapun sedar kekuatan Kuching City ketika ini dan menegaskan aksi di laman sendiri itu harus dimanfaatkan sebaik mungkin untuk menebus kekalahan 0-1 di Stadium Negeri, September lalu di tangan anak buah Aidil Sharin Sahak.Malah, perlawanan itu juga mungkin menjadi gambaran awal buat kedua-dua pasukan yang akan berentap sesama sendiri pada aksi separuh akhir Piala Malaysia, April depan."Ya, ia akan menjadi perlawanan yang menarik sebab nanti kita akan jumpa lawan sama di separuh akhir."Tapi untuk aksi liga, saya sedar Kuching City memang antara pasukan terkuat sekarang dalam saingan Liga Super," katanya.Menurut pengendali kelahiran Korea Selatan itu, pasukannya perlu tampil dengan aksi terbaik bagi mengekang kemaraan pelawat demi mengukuhkan kedudukan di tangga kedua."Saya dengan rendah diri turut menanti perlawanan menentang mereka Ahad ini

SAPPORO - Clad in a handsomely tailored dark grey suit, Satoshi Yano walked into a room at the Sapporo International Communication Plaza Foundation building here on a cold December evening, having braved the Friday evening traffic straight after work.The elementary school teacher was among eight Japanese hosts gathered to greet 16 journalists from Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia, who would be staying in their homes over the next three days.The homestay formed part of the seven-day JENESYS for Young Media Professionals 2025 programme held from Dec 2 to 9, designed to expose the Asean journalists to Japans political, economic and cultural landscape.The JENESYS (Japan-East Asia Network of Exchange for Students and Youths) programme is a people-to-people exchange initiative by the Japanese government to strengthen ties between Japan and the Asia-Pacific region.This writer and New Straits Times reporter Mohamad Al As Mohd Yunos, 28, were assigned to stay with Yano.At first glance, Yano, 54, appeared to embody the familiar Japanese stereotype - composed and serious - yet this perception completely changed once we got to know him personally.His polite bow that evening marked the beginning of an unforgettable journey.OPENING DOORS TO STRANGERSAs soon as we arrived at Yanos house, located in the Teine area - a 30-minute drive from Sapporo city centre - we were warmly greeted by his wife Akiko Yano, 56, also an elementary school teacher.We met their daughter Moeri Yano, 24, who is a kindergarten teacher, and their sons Ryoma Yano, 19, a university student, and Masaya Yano, 16, who is in high school.Despite their warm welcome, the familys obvious concern was how we would communicate with each other, as none of them could speak fluent English and our Japanese proficiency was also limited.Still, we managed to get by using a mix of simple English, translation apps and non-verbal cues like hand gestures and facial expressions.Reflecting on his experience, Mohamad Al As said he had anticipated the language barrier."From the very beginning, I knew communication would be difficult," he said

SEKURANG-KURANGNYA 1,007 atlet Palestin terkorban manakala 265 kemudahan sukan musnah akibat serangan Israel di Gaza sejak Oktober 2023, menurut Jawatankuasa Olimpik Palestin.Naib Presidennya, Asaad Al-Majdalawi berkata, 45 mangsa adalah wanita dengan kemusnahan melibatkan stadium, dewan latihan, gimnasium dan pusat belia di seluruh Gaza.Daripada jumlah itu, 184 kemudahan musnah sepenuhnya manakala 81 lagi rosak sebahagian.Beliau berkata, kemusnahan berkenaan bukan sahaja menamatkan kerjaya atlet, malah melumpuhkan keseluruhan ekosistem sukan yang selama ini menjadi ruang sokongan psikologi dan sosial kepada belia Gaza."Kesan yang kami hadapi bukan sekadar fizikal tetapi turut melibatkan trauma, laluan kerjaya yang terputus serta kehilangan sumber pendapatan bagi keluarga yang bergantung kepada institusi sukan," katanya.Walaupun berdepan kehancuran, aktiviti bola sepak masih diteruskan secara sederhana dengan pemain tempatan termasuk atlet amputasi beraksi di kawasan berpasir dan runtuhan bangunan, menggantikan stadium yang musnah.Dalam perkembangan berkaitan, beberapa tokoh sukan antarabangsa tampil menunjukkan solidariti, termasuk pengurus Manchester City, Pep Guardiola yang menandatangani jersi pasukan bola sepak amputasi Gaza sebagai simbol sokongan moral.Pemerhati sukan menyifatkan pemusnahan ini sebagai kehilangan generasi, apabila sistem liga, latihan dan pembangunan atlet yang dibina selama puluhan tahun di Gaza lenyap dalam tempoh singkat.Di sebalik segala kekangan, sukan kekal menjadi simbol keteguhan rakyat Gaza dengan bola sepak terus dimainkan sebagai lambang kelangsungan dan penolakan untuk mengalah.
