@guttapercha80 @breadunderscore Didn't Portugal colonise it for 450 years beginning with the presence of traders in the early 1500s who came together with Dominican friars on a mission? The Portuguese liked to proselytise whenever they went. They tried that on the Malays when they invaded Melaka in 1511.

@breadunderscore Before gaining independance, Timor Leste was annexed by Indonesia (1975-1999). During the occupation, its citizens had to adhere to one of Indonesia’s six recognized official religions. As a result, most Timor Lester’s people opted for Roman Catholicism.

never ask how timor leste became catholic majority

@MatBulanX @fendithehunk Sapa cakap is dosa? Apasal cuck plak? Performative? Offence? Apa yg kau cuba nak sampaikan ni? Cuba cerita. Takyah koyak boleh? Ke kau terasa sbb kau racist? Tetiba multicultural. Sapa kata takde identiti? Menggelabah la kau ni.

@spidergladiator @fendithehunk Dosa ke jadi racist? Macam cuck behaviour tahu tak? Macam performative… urmm… yes offence. Kau nak ke satu negara mukticultural sampai negara tu takde identity langsung?

Aku pernah ke Brunei a year ago. For once, aku tak pernah rasa stress. Like legit zero stress. Everything is very chill there. Small buildings, small city, little population, airport dia clear, everyone’s friendly and can be trusted, cheap good food, everyone’s happy. It’s like living back in 2010. Somehow I accidentally met a royal family member. He was so friendly to me. We had like 10 mins conversation. He (won’t say who) welcomed me in Brunei. There was a very nice taxi driver who helped me with my luggage. Aku kena check out hotel awal and I have like 9 hours of nothing to do before my flight back to KL. Dia ajak aku tour Bandar Seri Begawan last sebelum hantar aku kat airport. Pergi makan, lawat tourist areas. Dia siap simpan bag aku kat taxi dia waktu aku keluar. Masa sampai airport, dia tak nak duit aku. Aku tetap selit duit kat pocket dia. I forgot his name. I should’ve asked for his contact. Perhaps one of the best countries I’ve ever visited. Ya Allah, rahmatilah Negara Brunei Darussalam, Pemimpinnya dan rakyatnya.

@DiegoRibas97 I want this parlay.

I will sadly only watch 94/104 matches of the World Cup. The 10 matches I'll have to miss: Iran - New Zealand Austria - Jordan Ghana - Panama New Zealand - Egypt Jordan - Algeria Morocco - Haiti Curacao - Ivory Coast Senegal - Iraq Cape Verde - Saudi-Arabia Congo - Uzbekistan

@uhehkrok @MelGohCNA Are you really this stupid? Channel NewsAsia is a Singaporean owned media company via Temasek Holdings. If it was such an issue they wouldn't have got Melissa to cover this human interest story. Kau faham tak? Editorial decision. There are more Iranians in Malaysia than in SG.

@MelGohCNA well Melissa, y u need to come to Malaysia to interview Iranian community? U cant find 1 in Sg is it? Or is it bcoz Sg is best friend with XXX?

It’s the last day of Nowruz . The Iranian community in Malaysia is marking the Persian new year with a heavy heart as war rages on back home. Still, many signaled greater resolve to stay united to keep their centuries old traditions alive. 🌷 channelnewsasia.com/asia/iranian-c…

@codebluenews Heck no I would not part with RM900 simply based on what a Pembantu Tadbir says. I'll double check triple check the hell out of that thing. 😭💀$$

In a next level scheme at Tunku Azizah Hospital (HTA) in KL, a 28-year-old N1 admin assistant (pembantu tadbir or PT) allegedly scammed at least 187 housemen in the paediatric department of the government hospital out of more than RM47,000 over the past two and a half years from Sept 2023 to March 2026. The female junior PT's alleged con was two-pronged: collecting an RM900 "refund" by falsely claiming that the government "overpaid" emoluments and a “fee” of RM40 to RM45 for a compulsory course, the neonatal resuscitation programme (NRP), that was actually free of charge. Payments by 187 known victims – all doctors during housemanship postings to HTA’s paediatric department – were either banked into the admin asssistant's personal account or physically paid to her in cash, totalling RM47,210 over the past 30 months. The 187 people paid the PT either RM45 or RM40 each, except one who paid RM120, under the NRP scam, totalling RM8,210. Forty-two of them were additionally hoodwinked by the salary scam, with 40 housemen getting cheated of RM900 each, one of RM1,200, and another of RM1,800, totalling RM39,000. Based on CodeBlue’s interviews with a dozen victims this week, most, if not all, of the deceptions and financial transactions in the admin assistant’s alleged criminal fraud occurred in their workplace at HTA. The junior doctors said they didn’t think much about making payment to the PT’s personal account at the time, citing a heavy clinical work burden and trust in “Kak S*****”, whom they relied heavily on for human resource responsibilities. “She showed me the QR code and said it was her personal account. I never hesitated and I never doubted because I never thought of being scammed by her since she’s the admin. Whatever she said, I fully trusted her. So I straight away banked it to her," a houseman told CodeBlue. RM900 Salary Scam: Forged Document The PT allegedly used a forged document to convince house officers to pay her a "refund" of RM900, supposedly because the government "overpaid" their RM300 monthly Imbuhan Tetap Khidmat Awam allowance. Her alleged modus operandi (MO) involved setting up one-on-one meetings in her office on Level 6 of HTA with her victims, during which she falsely claimed to junior doctors that the government had “overpaid” their emolument for the first three months of housemanship by RM900. She gave them a form to sign. The fake document titled “Bayaran Balik Emolumen Terlebih Bayar PPS”, which had the doctor's name and IC number, was actually a forgery of a genuine Gantian Cuti Rehat document. The PT gave housemen two options to pay the RM900 "refund": by cash in an envelope that they could submit to Unit Gaji themselves or via QR code to her personal account. Her victims all chose to directly bank in the money to her. RM45 NRP Scam: Housemen Batches on Orientation Day If the admin assistant's MO for her alleged RM900 salary scam was individual shakedowns during personal meetings in her office, her alleged RM45 NRP hustle defrauded entire groups of house officers during orientation at the MOH hospital. Being the sole PT in charge of trainee doctors in HTA’s paediatrics department, she conducted briefings alone for housemen on the first day of their posting to the department, without anyone else present in the room. Housemen were told varying accounts of the RM45 payment for the compulsory NRP course: a fee, or for books or certification, but these were actually free of charge. Based on CodeBlue’s interviews, the admin assistant wouldn’t let the trainee doctors leave the room until everyone paid her RM45 there and then, either via QR code to her personal account or cash. End of 30-Month Scam Two of the PT's victims ended her 30-month scam last March 27, after the house officers went to Unit Gaji and the human resource department and discovered that the RM900 form was a fake document. At least 13 police reports have been filed. CodeBlue understands that the admin assistant, who is reportedly a contract staff under the government's MyStep programme, has since been terminated. When contacted, the PT told CodeBlue that she was “cooperating” to resolve the “financial issues”, adding that she hoped “this issue can be resolved privately and not published in an article”. In a WhatsApp message to a houseman, the 28-year-old woman claimed that this was the "first time I did something like this" and that her family was in debt with loan sharks. HTA and MOH Putrajaya declined comment, citing the ongoing police investigation. Read more: codeblue.galencentre.org/2026/04/admin-…

@ViggyStrdust Management trainee days, had a fellow trainee with a degree in Nuclear Physics from Oxford University. Our training was intensive including 8 weeks in UK. She's a high achiever but since this wasn't her field she'd cry during some tasks. Last I checked she runs a kindie in Dubai.

8 years ago I hired a sales staff with a degree in nuclear engineering. No job locally in his field, couldn't leave the country for family reasons. Last I heard he was baking cakes and selling them. Nice guy. Loves peanut butter.

@JamesTate121 Birthright citizenship was put in the constitution with the then environments of late 19th century America in mind. Also, if govt withdrew citizenship from people who were born here as a result of their illegals parents crossing, what's the problem? How much coffee you need?

Kentanji Brown Jackson is too good for this court. I don’t have a transcript yet but she basically asked: “Didn’t they put birthright citizenship in the constitution in order to avoid this type of debate over who gets to claim a domicile?” And Sauer just stuttered. And then Sonia Sotomayor comes in with the “doesn’t this open the door to the government withdrawing citizenship from people who were born here?” More stuttering.

@wonton_destrctn @mirandadevine You are subject to Japanese jurisdiction if you're in Japan. Their laws on stealing are applicable if you steal shit there & get caught there. A diplomat may not because there is this thing called diplomatic immunity. Even then, not every diplomat would receive that credentials.

@mirandadevine Seems like people are being obtuse about KBJ's question. She was asking whether a foreign visitor who steals a wallet in Japan would be "subject to the jurisdiction" of Japanese law in the sense that he/she could be punished for the crime, whereas a diplomat could not.

Not sure if she's aware but of all the countries to mention Japan is probably the least helpful to her cause. Babies born in Japan can only become citizens if they have Japanese blood and are born to registered Japanese citizens whose names appear in a special book. One of my sisters was born in Japan and lived there until she was five but was not granted citizenship because our parents were "gaijin" - foreigners. And nobody minded because those were the rules.

@The_Forty_Four 1990. A friend was studying in the UK. Like the Scotland's jersey, with its tartan placket so asked him to buy & mail it to me in Malaysia. Consignment included other stuff like Smash Hits magazine & Samantha Fox topless pic. The postal service confiscated the last item. 😭💀⚽

This World Cup really is terrible isn’t it you’ve got nations like ‘Curacao’ ‘Iraq’ ‘Uzbekistan’ ‘Scotland’

@MUFCDarren_ All I want to know now is what is the Italian word for doomscrolling. 😭💀⚽

🚨 Gianluigi Buffon on Italy’s third World Cup miss in a row ❌🇮🇹 “I lost hope when the manager said they needed fewer African countries to qualify for the World Cup. Switzerland, North Macedonia, and now Bosnia… I can’t believe Italy don’t have the qualities to qualify for the World Cup. This current Italian generation lacks a lot of personality. They get on the team bus with headphones on, not talking to each other, constantly doomscrolling on TikTok. Compared to the Italy team in the 2000s, there’s no leadership on the pitch.”

@KhanKtinga @ClayTravis Laws & values can change over time. Get more immigrants if you want but not via this channel. More so if it's fraudulently obtained (child of illegals). There's a reason only about 60 countries left (out of 195 in the world) still use it. This include northern hemisphere ones.🤷

@ClayTravis Because we aren’t China, and we make our own laws based on our needs, history, and values? We settled on jus soli (a legal term that would be coined around the time of the 14th amendment by a French writer) because it flowed from English common law, and also made since for us.

An American citizen’s baby can’t become a Chinese citizen by being born on the soil of China. Can anyone explain why a Chinese citizen’s baby should be able to become an American citizen by being born on the soil here? It’s absolute insanity.

@YasminKhalaff Did you even read his full statement? He was ”concerned” on the treatment on the opposition fans. He's actually indifference if you read between the lines. His birthday was spent on a yacht with a yacht girl he probably dgaf.

The fact that Lamine refused to aknowledge the racism he’s faced so far in his career but the moment it came to an attack on his religeon he spoke up right away says a whole lot.

@LexxMoves Whoopi Goldberg one time had beef with Spike Lee for not employing dark skinned actresses in his movies. I would have thought Pam Grier could belong in a Spike Lee movie.

Something that I think is a deep embarrassment to the 90s class of black filmmakers is that the only person that believed in pam grier in the later half of her career was quentin tarantino.

@kendallrowanx Skills issue.

Respectfully if you haven’t qualified for 3 world cups in a row then the format is not the problem. You are

@arnesa_kustura Malaysian here. Most Malaysians know about Bosnia. We're huge supporters back in the day. Our forces were part of UN peacekeeping troops there and later helped to rebuild the country. For sure many will be rooting for Bosnia in their World Cup games against Canada, Qatar, Swiss.

It is cute everyone finding out that Bosnia exists, that it’s Muslim, that it is Muslim but the people like to drink and don’t partake in the haram policing of everything, that there was a genocide there…all because we beat Italy and are going to the world cup.

@ChrisBaxter76 @RaeComm A World Cup without Brazil would mean they fucked up their qualification process. Would be odd but think we'll quickly get over them. Also, UEFA should rig the next WC qualifying rounds and have Italy, San Marino, Lichtenstein, Gibraltar and Kazakhstan in one group. 😭💀⚽

Come on, Derek. Firstly that’s a straw man. No-one’s suggesting some countries should have automatic qualification. Secondly, there is obvious aura/pedigree around some countries. A World Cup without Brazil would be odd, for example. And I’m sure you enjoy a World Cup less without Scotland there. And without Germany, you’d also feel a gap.

Not everyone will see it this way but the World Cup has never been - and should never be - akin to a select invitation list with preferred guests. 74/78/94 no England, 82/86 no Netherlands after back-to-back finals, now 3 times in a row, no Italy. We enjoyed them all anyway.

@alexjeffries98 @SyedAkramin Brunei's GDP per capita is USD 35,000, ranking them at 38th in the world. idk about shithole this and that but certainly higher than whatever shitty job your dad is doing now. 😭💀

@SyedAkramin Shithole country with shithole food

Saya teringin nak makan makanan Brunei. Di KL atau Selangor, boleh sesiapa cadangkan restoran masakan Brunei? Terima kasih.

@hackedbracket @ig_0020 @CBSSportsGolazo Has Bosnia Herzegovina played against the USMNT yet? Then this traitor shit doesn't really apply. Unlike that Eileen Gu lady who competed in medal events against USA in all competitions. Learn the fucking difference before showing us your TDS.

@ig_0020 @CBSSportsGolazo He played for the USMNT until 2024, that’s a distinction without a difference.

Wisconsin-born Esmir Bajraktarević sends Bosnia and Herzegovina to their first FIFA World Cup since 2014 🇺🇸🇧🇦

@PaulCarr Rick Davis (NY Cosmos) who captained USMNT 12 times in 1980s once said the team consisted of guys who met each other for the first time at the airport on their way to the city where the international match was held. Bit exaggeration but I bet they had a lot of fun then. 😭⚽

🇺🇸 USMNT has lost eight straight games vs European teams. 🇺🇸 That’s the second-longest such streak in team history, behind a 10-game slide from 1952-73.
