The unshakeable grip of superstitions

MALAYSIANS are a strange breed when it comes to superstition. Rational? Maybe not. Malaysian? Absolutely. Walk down any street, visit a home or scroll through WhatsApp and you will see it everywhere.

My grandmother’s love was steady and unconditional, the kind of love you never question because it is woven so tightly into your being. – PIC COURTESY OF HASHINI KAVISHTRI KANNAN

MY grandmother still remembers me. For that, I am grateful. But each visit reminds me that she is no longer the same woman who once anchored my world.

She asks me, again and again, to take her back to her ...

In unity we find our calm

THIS week, the news has been a relentless drumbeat of unrest. In Gaza, bombs are once again raining down, reducing homes to rubble and leaving lives tattered and torn. In Nepal, thousands flood the streets ...

Horror movies are not just about the ghosts; they are about the people - the way we bond over fear, clutching each other’s arms in the cinema, laughing nervously afterwards about how we all screamed at the same time. – AFPPIC

The cruelty we tolerate in schools today will become the cruelty we live with as a society tomorrow. – theSunpix

Normalising cruelty at our own peril

WHEN I was in school, bullying was there – the name-calling, the pushing in corridors, the whispered jokes about my looks or background. I still carry those memories, though I rarely speak of them.

The truth is, Malaysia does not need more big-screen heroes; we need coolies of the heart – people willing to do the heavy lifting of empathy, community and courage. – theSunpix

In Coolie, he teams up with director Lokesh Kanagaraj to deliver ...

Durian isn’t just food; it is nostalgia, identity and the shared joy of prying open a fruit that has been passed down through generations. – BERNAMA
