SHAH ALAM Malaysian barista Nas Jaafar has made history by becoming the first Malaysian to win the 2026 World Brewers Cup, a prestigious global competition under the World Coffee Championships that celebrates excellence in manual coffee brewing, sensory evaluation and presentation.The victory was officially confirmed through the World Coffee Championships platforms, which named Nas as the overall champion after he outperformed finalists from Australia, Hong Kong, the Czech Republic, South Korea and France in a closely contested final round.The competition evaluates baristas not only on brewing precision and technique, but also on cup quality, consistency and their ability to present and communicate the sensory profile of their coffee to judges.Nas, who previously clinched the Malaysia Brewers Cup title in 2025, earned his place on the world stage through Malaysias national selection circuit, which gathers top baristas from cafs, roasteries and specialty coffee institutions across the country.The achievement has been widely celebrated within Malaysias growing specialty coffee community, which has expanded rapidly in recent years alongside the rise of independent cafs, micro-roasters and structured barista training programmes.Industry players view Nas victory as a breakthrough moment that could further strengthen Malaysias standing in the global specialty coffee scene, while also encouraging greater international recognition for local coffee professionals and inspiring more young baristas to pursue competitive brewing.The win is also expected to help elevate standards in local caf culture, particularly in brewing precision, sensory training and coffee education.The World Brewers Cup, organised annually as part of the World Coffee Championships circuit is regarded as one of the most prestigious events in the specialty coffee world, drawing national champions from dozens of countries and rotating its host cities worldwide each year.

JOHOR BAHRU - The 16th Johor state election is heating up after all major political parties announced their list of candidates to contest the 56 seats available in the state.Barisan Nasional (BN) and Pakatan Harapan (PH) are the only two coalitions to contest all 56 seats, with PH announcing their candidates first - PKR with 20 candidates, Amanah with 19, and DAP with 17 candidates, the majority of them revealed by PH chairman Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim at a ceremony in Bukit Gambir on Monday.BN, who are going solo for the Johor polls, announced its candidates on Wednesday, a combination of old and new faces - 37 candidates from UMNO, 15 from MCA and four from MIC, while the third major coalition, Perikatan Nasional (PN) announced 33 candidates - 16 from Bersatu, 11 from PAS, five from Malaysian Indian Progressive Party (MIPP) and one from Pejuang.MUDA will contest in four seats, including defending their Puteri Wangsa seat, while Parti Sosialis Malaysias (PSM) sole candidate, Amir Syafiq Ameer Soekre, 40, will stand in Skudai.Newcomer Parti Bersama Malaysia (Bersama) is scheduled to announce its candidates and launch its campaign machinery tonight.Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) Social Sciences and Humanities Faculty director Assoc Prof Dr Mazlan Ali said attention is expected to focus on several key battleground seats featuring contests involving prominent candidates, particularly in constituencies that were won by narrow majorities in the last state election.There are seven "critical seats with majorities of fewer than 1,000 votes, namely Bukit Batu (PH, 137 votes), Bukit Pasir (BN, 198), Parit Yaani (BN, 294), Tangkak (PH, 372), Serom (BN, 699), Bukit Kepong (PN, 710) and Jementah (PH, 714).A contest of note is Puteri Wangsa, where former Education Minister Maszlee Malik has been fielded by PH and is expected to face Teow Chia Ling of BN, Rashifah Aljunie of MUDA and a Bersama candidate to be announced tonight.Political speculation suggests that PH may nominate Maszlee as its Menteri Besar candidate should the coalition emerge victorious in the Johor state election, further heightening interest in the contest for the closely watched seat.Another seat of interest is Bukit Kepong, where former Johor Menteri Besar Sahruddin Jamal, representing PN, is expected to face, among others, BN candidate Ahmad Syar'e Yusof and PH candidate C Subramani."Meanwhile, the Machap seat is also attracting attention as Johor Menteri Besar Onn Hafiz Ghazi is being challenged by PH's young candidate and lawyer, Nor Hafiz Roslan, Mazlan said when contacted, adding that other contests of interest would be Pasir Raja, where former Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Adham Baba, a two-term winner, is contesting, and Larkin, where Pulai MP Suhaizan Kaiat will take on incumbent Mohd Hairi Mad Shah of BN.Amanah also caused a notable surprise by fielding its only Chinese candidate in the Permas state seat, Johor Amanah Women (Warda) chief Sharon Teo Siew Hui.Mazlan said voter turnout is expected to be the most important factor in determining the outcome of this election, particularly involving young voters and undecided voters."A high turnout can often change the pattern of results in marginal seats

KUALA LUMPUR - The government is drafting a new legal framework for e-commerce platforms to strengthen platform accountability, address regulatory gaps and better protect local micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs).Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Minister Datuk Armizan Mohd Ali said the study on the proposed legislation began in April 2024, with the final report now available on the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living's (KPDN) website.He said KPDN has also prepared a Cabinet memorandum on the proposed policy, which is expected to be tabled at the first Cabinet meeting in July."The next step will be the preparation of the Bill, taking into account the views of all ministries as well as the Attorney General's Chambers," he said during a Special Chamber sitting in the Dewan Rakyat today.He was responding to Young Syefura Othman's (PH-Bentong) question on government initiatives to support e-commerce businesses, including measures to address unequal market access and curb the proliferation of counterfeit goods.Armizan said the proposed legislation was prompted by regulatory gaps between local businesses and foreign cross-border sellers, with the aim of creating a fairer competitive environment, strengthening platform accountability and tackling counterfeit products.He noted that businesses operating through e-commerce platforms in Malaysia remain subject to local laws, including those administered by other ministries.However, he said the government does not currently require all foreign sellers to establish a registered company or business entity in Malaysia, as cross-border e-commerce spans multiple international jurisdictions and raises issues relating to enforcement, compliance and trade commitments.He added that KPDN's existing laws are territorial in nature and do not provide for direct extraterritorial enforcement against foreign sellers without a registered entity in Malaysia.To address this, the government is studying mechanisms to strengthen platform accountability, including requiring overseas entities to comply with Malaysian laws, appointing authorised local representatives, enhancing the accountability of platform operators and extending the law's extraterritorial application where appropriate.On counterfeit goods, Armizan said KPDN received 38,503 complaints related to online transactions between 2023 and June 11 this year.He said KPDN, together with e-commerce platforms, internet service providers (ISPs) and the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC), has strengthened cooperation to tackle online offences.Between Jan 1 and May 31 this year, 412 websites were blocked for various offences, including the sale of counterfeit goods, while 57 online advertisements were taken down through cooperation with e-commerce platforms.Meanwhile, Armizan said the Malaysia Competition Commission (MyCC) continues to monitor anti-competitive practices under the Competition Act 2010, adding that no cases of predatory pricing involving foreign sellers have been recorded in the e-commerce ecosystem to date.Citing the Department of Statistics Malaysia (DOSM), he said the e-commerce sector contributed RM248.2 billion, or 13.6 per cent, to Malaysia's gross domestic product (GDP) in 2023.The sector's total revenue has continued to grow, rising from RM1.1 trillion in 2021 to RM1.13 trillion in 2022, RM1.18 trillion in 2023, RM1.23 trillion in 2024 and RM1.3 trillion in 2025
