The prevalence of self-harm ideation has been a longstanding social issue, and its impact has become more pronounced during the ongoing pandemic. Shockingly, there has been an alarming 81% surge in self-harm cases, with 1,142 reported cases in 2022 compared to 631 cases in 2020.
Remarkably, the recent action taken by Dewan Rakyat addresses this critical matter by focusing on a specific section of the law. Previously, suicide was legally considered a crime under Section 309 of the Penal Code. However, a historic development has now unfolded as significant changes have been made to this particular section.
Suicide No Longer Considered A Crime In Malaysia
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/296a692908cc2d3da6420aa69eae90129a6be450718385565b55f9748c938c1c" />
The amendments to the Penal Code (Amendment) (No 2) Bill 2023 were unanimously approved by the lower house, as stated by Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Law and Institutional Reform), Ramkarpal Singh. These amendments, comprising four clauses, aim to decriminalize attempted suicide by removing Section 309 of Act 574, which currently treats it as a criminal offence. Ramkarpal Singh, Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Legal and Institutional Reforms), emphasized that Section 309, originating from the 19th century, was based on the belief that criminalizing suicide would serve as a preventive measure.
By abolishing Section 309 of Act 574, the country takes a significant step towards preventing attempted suicide and reducing the associated stigma. This change intends to create an environment where individuals feel more comfortable seeking help and support. Previously, anyone convicted of attempting suicide under Section 309 could face imprisonment for up to one year, a fine, or both.

Additionally, there is a proposed amendment that aims to recognize the abetment of attempted suicide as a criminal offence under Section 306 of Act 574. This section imposes penalties of up to 10 years in prison and fines for individuals convicted of aiding or encouraging suicide. Furthermore, the amendments introduce the criminalization of abetment in cases involving children, individuals with limited faculties, or individuals in a state of intoxication under Section 305. Ramkarpal stated that these amendments would cover cyberbullies who encourage or influence the suicides of children and mentally disabled individuals, treating such actions as criminal offences.
This decision is intended to safeguard victims of online bullying, which can have severe consequences, including suicide. In addition to decriminalizing suicide, these changes involve amendments to the Criminal Procedure Code (Amendment)(No.2) 2023 and the Mental Health (Amendment) Bill 2023.
Government Wanting To Take More Rehabilitative Measures
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/251ae9e03de6e88047b7b83f12b908080f31cf0c590b140738a8029ce8fa7968" />
&ldquo;We hope that more people who are in need of help will come forward and seek treatment, and at the same time, we will be able to reduce the number of suicide cases in the future.&rdquo;
With the initiative, the government hopes to remove the stigma against any suicide attempts and decrease the numbers. With modern medical treatment, not prosecuting those who need help is the best way to address the matter as it&rsquo;s seen success in other countries.
&nbsp;
Remember, you&rsquo;re not alone in this world and there are always ways to seek help.

Malaysia No Longer Recognises Suicide Attempts As A Criminal Offence

For many Malaysians, whether we're dining at an RnR centre during a trip or grabbing a quick bite at a fast-food outlet, a common observation revolves around the attitude toward cleaning up the dining area after use.
Our culture has become accustomed to relying on cleaners to handle the post-meal cleanup, and while some may argue it's their responsibility, there's no harm in making an effort to tidy up or clean one's table before the next person occupies the space. Recently, a couple in Singapore garnered praise from netizens as a TikTok video featuring them cleaning not only their own table but also the one behind them went viral.
<blockquote class="tiktok-embed" style="max-width: 605px; min-width: 325px;" cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@kopidankueh/video/7309436522015591687" data-video-id="7309436522015591687">

<script async="" src="https://www.tiktok.com/embed.js"></script>
&nbsp;
In the brief 46-second footage, we witnessed the Singaporean couple going above and beyond to clean their table and the one behind them at a restaurant in Port Dickson. They took the initiative to pick up the tray filled with leftovers and trash, then proceeded to bring it to the counter for the shopkeeper to dispose of. This incident occurred at a place called Kopi Kuih, and the owners were both shocked and pleasantly surprised by the couple's actions. Such behaviour is uncommon, particularly considering that many of their customers are Malaysians.
&ldquo;Such acts of kindness are quite uncommon as most people typically only clear up their own table at restaurants. Many of our customers have always been kind enough to clear up their own plates but these two good Samaritans did not hesitate to clear it up for others after eating,&rdquo; said the owner.
The primary motivation for the kopitiam sharing the TikTok video was to highlight the significance of kindness and its far-reaching impact on the world. They aspire to inspire other Malaysians to emulate such considerate actions.
Netizens Praise The Couple
At the time of writing, the TikTok video has accumulated more than 77,000 views, and numerous netizens have expressed their praise in the comments. This positive response contradicts the negative portrayal often seen in the media, emphasizing that despite a few individuals with attitude issues, many still appreciate the good deeds of our neighbours.
Here's some of the comments:

Hopefully, Malaysians can take inspiration from this couple and adopt a similar practice. By encouraging more people to follow suit, this positive action can set off a chain reaction, fostering a culture where everyone contributes to keeping shared spaces clean and orderly.

Skyline Luge Kuala Lumpur Is Set To Open Its Doors Tomorrow

For Malaysians, the joy of finally taking a break from work to explore new destinations is unparalleled. Common choices include trending K-Drama-inspired trips to Korea, visits to America, or exploring the beauty of Europe.
However, as much as we cherish the thrill of adventure, it doesn't always unfold as planned, especially when the outcome is far from enjoyable and memorable. Unfortunately, for a Malaysian couple, their dream vacation in the romantic city of Paris turned into a harrowing nightmare. The discovery of a thief pilfering their belongings during their stay at a Parisian hotel cast a shadow over what should have been a perfect holiday.
Nightmare In Paris
Recently, <a href="https://www.xiaohongshu.com/explore/656d93aa000000003a00bb7e">Xiaohongshu</a> user Allen Tee took to the Chinese social media app to provide additional insights into the unfortunate incident. Expressing dissatisfaction with the authorities and hotel management, he shared the details of a devastating encounter. The couple, upon returning to their hotel room after a day out in the city, were shocked to find their suitcase ruthlessly cut open, with their valuable items stolen.
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/83b60caaf677097426fca42719b9e2cdbbd9a33813b6f8b3b6a827a8bbeb318f" />
While the luggage was unattended in the hotel room, the thieves successfully made off with various items, including cash, wallets, computers, iPads, and phones, along with a recently purchased pony skirt belonging to the woman. Allen discovered unauthorized transactions on his card and, upon contacting the bank to suspend the service, was shocked to learn that the thief had continued using it to make purchases, including meals at McDonald's.
Where &amp; How Did It Happen?
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/172e20e78c43013f6e42e2912394481ab6329e4337fdb379d60a3898a15bcc6d" />
The occurrence took place on December 3rd at the Holiday Inn Paris Op&eacute;ra Grands Boulevards hotel. Before embarking on his trip, Allen emphasized that he had thoroughly researched and inquired about safety measures for his visit to Paris. He received advice from many to exercise caution in the city of love, known for pickpockets and street robberies even during daylight. Taking the prevalent crime into account, the couple actively sought secure accommodations in Paris, heeding their friends' recommendation to stay at larger-scale hotels for enhanced safety and dependability.
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/7d5a5562ac5a58bffac548583ba3dd156986c629c4785d5433ef65f4feae5953" />
An unforeseen event occurred at the hotel when a French guest, fluent in Chinese, unexpectedly encountered the thief in his room upon returning. Engaging with the thief, the Frenchman attempted to flee, but the vigilant guest successfully captured two photos of the culprit as evidence. The images provided conclusive proof that the individual was indeed the thief who had stolen Allen's belongings, as the backpack he was carrying belonged to Allen.
Suspects There&rsquo;s An Insider In The Hotel &amp; Police Were Called To Investigate
Upon closer examination, Allen observed that the hotel permitted outsiders unrestricted access to the premises, including guest floors, at any time. The ease with which the thief could access any room using a simple room card and exit the hotel with stolen goods without arousing staff suspicion led Allen to suspect foul play. He concluded that there might be something dubious happening, with a high likelihood of an insider from the hotel being involved in the break-ins.
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/2eff66ea4499a6a386af9ec727d079d96623e1f9a08cd6b028c3b486739b0831" />
After reporting the incident to the police and undergoing a series of inquiries, they were instructed to proceed to the nearby police station. There, they were informed that such incidents were treated as common due to the frequency of similar cases. The authorities exhibited indifference, overlooking their concerns, and the couple experienced an extended wait at the police station, with routine questions being primarily communicated in French between the hotel manager and the authorities.
Ultimately, the couple felt let down by the lack of assistance from both the authorities and the hotel staff, who failed to take the situation seriously. Consequently, they opted to relocate to a different hotel, incurring additional expenses to replace the stolen items. Although they continued their trip around France, they had to forgo some initially planned activities due to the unfortunate incident.
This incident serves as a valuable lesson. Contrary to the picturesque image of France, some people label the French as unhygienic, and others have encountered instances of racism towards different cultures and religions. It underscores the importance of exercising caution while travelling, emphasizing the need to take proper precautions to secure belongings and thoroughly inspect accommodations before leaving personal items unattended.

The city of love is also very well known for their high crime rate.

M’sian Couple’s Paris Trip Becomes A Nightmare After Thief Breaks Into Their Hotel Room & Steals Their Valuables

This past week, our nation was shocked by the news of Zayn Rayyan&rsquo;s death, an autistic non-speaking 6-year-old boy. He was first reported missing on 7th December (Tuesday) when his missing poster went viral on social media. On 8th December (Wednesday), his body was found lying on a riverbed not far from his family residence in Damansara Damai. While waiting for the autopsy result, police classified the poor boy&rsquo;s death as sudden death.
Late evening yesterday, our nation was once again shocked when police reclassified the late Zayn Rayyan&rsquo;s death as murder. Selangor police chief Datuk Hussein Omar Khan said the case of the child's death has been reclassified as murder after the autopsy found signs of injuries on the victim's neck and body. &ldquo;We will re-record statements from the victim&rsquo;s parents, family members, and neighbours to aid the investigation,&rdquo; he added.
Bukit Aman Is Probing Further Into The Case
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/a19f70c641aa2aaa9e1556b64f0d0b59e3aae7c612f27f2d407898f3e2cd4290" alt="" width="518" height="319" /> Datuk Seri Mohd Shuhaily
Bukit Aman Criminal Investigation Department director Datuk Seri Mohd Shuhaily Mohd Zain, in his press conference with the media, confirmed there were traces of strangulation on the victim&rsquo;s body after receiving the full autopsy report from the forensics. &ldquo;The victim for sure did not die from drowning. He did not die at the scene we found him. Chances are he was murdered somewhere else before his body was dumped at the scene,&rdquo; added the Bukit Aman CID director further.
Police suspected the boy was dead within 48 hours before he was found based on the post-mortem report. While Datuk Seri Mohd Shuhaily confirmed the strangulation claim, he refused to provide further details of injuries sustained by the victim as a sign of respect towards the deceased and his family. However, he did not deny there were traces of injuries of the victim trying to defend himself.
&ldquo;We are probing into this case seriously. It&rsquo;s still too early for us to reveal the progress of the investigation, but as of right now, we strongly believe this is a murder case. To anyone who has information out there, please come forward to aid us in the investigation,&rdquo; said Datuk Seri Mohd Shuhaily. Recalling where the body was found, the police are not ruling out the possibility that the suspect might be familiar with the apartment complex &ndash; considering the body was found in a secluded area of the river, an area that the locals do not frequently visit. He mentioned that police would search for evidence at the scene of the incident to aid in identifying the suspect and did not dismiss the possibility that the suspect could be from the area.&nbsp;
The case is being investigated under Section 302 of the Penal Code as a homicide case.
Bereaved Family

Zayn Rayyan&rsquo;s body was taken to Sungai Buloh Hospital Forensic Department shortly after he was found for autopsy process. His body was taken out from the hospital to Masjid Damansara Damai for prayers before being buried at Section 9 Muslim Cemetery in Kota Damansara yesterday evening.
Neither of the victim&rsquo;s parents or extended family members were available for comments as they were still grieving with the unfortunate news. The public has been advised to refrain from making speculations to avoid disrupting the police investigation.

#Shocking: Zayn Rayyan’s Death Reclassified As Murder

About a week ago, the renowned Japanese anime "Jujutsu Kaisen" sent shockwaves through social media, rapidly capturing attention and sparking widespread discussions, unexpectedly placing the city of Kuantan in the limelight.

The discussion arose when Leong responded to a query from Tanjung Lumpur ADUN Rosli Abdul Jabar regarding the state government's initiatives to elevate the beaches along Tanjung Lumpur into a prominent tourist destination.

The dialogue closely mirrored Nanami's sentiments in episode 42, where he expressed, "I'll construct a home on a deserted beach. The books I purchased but never read have accumulated like a mountain. I wish to peruse them leisurely as if I'm reclaiming lost time." This poignant moment unfolded against a montage of Nanami battling monsters and enjoying a dance on the beach in the series.
Little did we expect that an anime could leave such a lasting impact on a serene town! Teluk Cempedak, already a bustling beach during holidays, is poised to become even more popular if the state government secures an endorsement from the creators. What a unique way to boost local tourism, isn't it? Keep an eye out for Kuantan's transformation into a global anime enthusiast hotspot!
