Social media personality and entrepreneur Khairul Aming recently expanded his food ventures with the opening of Rembayung, a Malay cuisine restaurant located in Kuala Lumpur. The restaurant, which began operations in early January, marks Khairul&rsquo;s latest move from digital influence to brick-and-mortar business, following the success of his previous food-related projects.
Rembayung was designed to celebrate traditional Malay flavours in a modern dining setting, offering dishes that resonate with both nostalgic home-style cooking and contemporary tastes. Since its launch, the restaurant has consistently drawn crowds, with long queues forming daily &mdash; a testament to Khairul Aming&rsquo;s strong public appeal.
Social Media Buzz and Public Reception
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/241d842b810674b1a789d521ff89fb52bc7cb3cbe60a48fdcc477e226d81cd87" />
From the moment it opened, Rembayung quickly became one of the most talked-about dining spots on Malaysian social media. Customers shared photos, reviews and videos across platforms such as Threads, TikTok and Instagram, praising the food, atmosphere and overall experience.
Many diners noted that Rembayung felt like a personal extension of Khairul Aming himself, given his hands-on approach and frequent updates online. The restaurant&rsquo;s popularity has been fuelled not only by its menu, but also by public curiosity over how a digital creator translates his brand into a physical dining experience.
Unexpected Disruption During Heavy Rain
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/ecacb2d5b820e6f61dd978436240aced463be5b68973f2014949817538e27913" />
However, the restaurant&rsquo;s momentum was briefly disrupted on the evening of 7 February, when heavy rainfall caused water to enter part of the premises during service hours. Videos <a href="https://www.threads.com/@akmalshaharom/post/DUdAdL1D9tn">shared online</a> showed water seeping into the dining area, prompting staff to act quickly to manage the situation.
Khairul Aming later shared a video on <a href="https://www.threads.com/@khairulaming/post/DUdVM7nkxgY?xmt=AQF0WS-m9bAZCy4U2xUcJOHhcWVZMavq5IEXj2pcpc7U3w">Threads</a> showing his employees cleaning the affected area while ensuring operations continued. Several customers were asked to change seats temporarily to maintain comfort and safety.
Shortly after, Khairul publicly apologised for the inconvenience, acknowledging the discomfort faced by diners during the incident.
&ldquo;I&rsquo;m truly sorry to customers who had to move tables,&rdquo; he said, explaining that the unusually heavy rain had led to a leak. He added that the situation was quickly brought under control and that dinner service resumed as normal later that evening.
Online Speculation and Growing Questions
As videos of the incident circulated online, speculation began to grow regarding the cause of the leak. Some netizens questioned whether the building&rsquo;s design or glass panels were responsible, while others raised concerns over construction quality given that the restaurant had only recently opened.
The incident sparked widespread discussion, with many calling for clarification from those involved in the construction of the restaurant.
Here&rsquo;s some of the comments:
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/864f5adaef19171466ad477ab506c8b04b1bb8a5d4e99ad32cc65b3eac743d4a" />
Contractor Issues Clarification
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/033bf2745da188a12ba6e5d182b2deda8cec8bd537610a81b3d08bd550511f04" />
In response, CD Builders Sdn. Bhd., the contractor responsible for building Rembayung, issued a <a href="https://www.threads.com/@cdbuilders.my/post/DUebv2WEorQ?xmt=AQF0ksrlCyjfWFqRqzNSfA2HTLUTgxrmwOPuI2eqAaCDzDj6DPkxTDPCYMn2WwiXi8iJ0Y1Q">statement</a> to address the claims. The company clarified that the water did not enter through the glass panels, dismissing speculation circulating online.
According to the contractor, the incident was caused by an overflowing roof gutter, which occurred when a downpipe became clogged with leaves during the storm. This blockage prevented rainwater from draining properly, causing it to spill over and seep into the interior of the building.
The contractor explained that this was the first time Rembayung had experienced such heavy rain and strong winds since opening, describing the situation as unexpected and beyond initial control. Despite calling the incident unforeseen, CD Builders stated that it had taken full responsibility for resolving the issue. The company assured the public that improvements would be made to prevent a similar occurrence in the future.
&ldquo;We have taken responsibility and will enhance the drainage system to ensure this does not happen again,&rdquo; the contractor said, adding that customer comfort and safety remain a priority.
The contractor also expressed hope that customers would be able to enjoy their meals comfortably moving forward.
Swift Response and Looking Ahead
Khairul Aming confirmed that repairs were carried out immediately and reiterated that the leak had been fully addressed. He thanked customers for their patience and understanding, emphasising that his team acted quickly to minimise disruption.
While the incident briefly raised concerns, many online users praised both Khairul Aming and the restaurant staff for their transparency and calm handling of the situation. Several netizens also pointed out that teething issues are not uncommon for newly opened establishments, particularly during extreme weather conditions.
As Rembayung continues to operate, the restaurant remains a major draw for diners, with public interest showing little sign of slowing &mdash; proving that even amid unexpected challenges, the brand&rsquo;s appeal remains strong.

Pokémon Announces Massive Asia-Wide 30th Anniversary Celebration, With Malaysia Among Key Host Cities

Gaming stars, K-pop idols and international pop acts have all been making their way to Malaysia in recent years, and now another familiar name is set to return to our shores.
Fans of acoustic-pop music have reason to celebrate as Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Jason Mraz is officially making his long-awaited return to Kuala Lumpur after a seven-year absence.
The American musician will perform as part of his Asia Tour 2026, bringing a catalogue of beloved hits and feel-good singalongs to Malaysian audiences once again.
Who Is Jason Mraz?
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/76b0d38f9d354e43d50f9612d44abbba558cd08a1e6cb26ac27724481d9769d0" />
Jason Mraz is an American singer-songwriter best known for his laid-back acoustic sound and uplifting, feel-good songwriting that blends pop with influences from folk, reggae, R&amp;B and soft rock. Over the years, he has built a reputation as one of the most recognisable voices in modern acoustic pop, thanks to his warm vocals and easy-going musical style.
<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/EkHTsc9PU2A" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
His global breakthrough came with the release of &ldquo;I&rsquo;m Yours&rdquo;, a song that became a defining anthem of the late 2000s. With its simple melody, optimistic lyrics and timeless singalong quality, the track went on to achieve massive worldwide success and has since surpassed two billion streams, making it one of the most enduring acoustic-pop hits of its generation. Even today, it remains closely associated with his name and continues to introduce new listeners to his music.
Beyond that signature hit, Mraz has delivered a steady stream of popular songs that have stood the test of time, including &ldquo;I Won&rsquo;t Give Up&rdquo;, &ldquo;Lucky&rdquo; featuring Colbie Caillat, &ldquo;The Remedy (I Won&rsquo;t Worry)&rdquo;, &ldquo;Geek In The Pink&rdquo; and &ldquo;Have It All&rdquo;. These tracks showcase his range as a songwriter, often centring around themes of love, optimism and self-reflection.
Starting out as a coffeehouse performer and street busker in San Diego, Mraz eventually signed a record deal that launched a successful international career spanning nine studio albums, multiple Grammy Awards, and global tours. His music continues to resonate across generations, appealing to both long-time fans and newer audiences discovering his catalogue for the first time.

Jason Mraz Is Returning To Kuala Lumpur This October For His First Malaysian Concert In Seven Years

A devastating road accident in Johor has claimed five lives, including four members of the same family, in what police believe may have been caused by reckless driving involving two brothers behind the wheel of luxury vehicles.
The tragedy, which occurred along Jalan Renggam&ndash;Simpang Renggam in Kluang on 1 June, has shocked Malaysians nationwide and reignited concerns about dangerous driving on public roads.
Five-Vehicle Collision Turns Fatal
<iframe style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?height=260&amp;href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Freel%2F2206516693440559%2F&amp;show_text=false&amp;width=560&amp;t=0" width="560" height="260" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>&nbsp;
The crash took place at around 1.15pm and involved five vehicles: a BMW 530e, a Mercedes-Benz A250, a Toyota Vios, a Perodua Alza, a Proton Wira and another Mercedes-Benz.
According to Kluang district police chief ACP Bahrin Mohd Noh, initial investigations found that a 22-year-old man driving the BMW and his 19-year-old younger brother, who was driving the Mercedes-Benz A250, were allegedly travelling at high speed and driving recklessly.
Police believe the BMW lost control while travelling from Kluang towards Simpang Renggam, veered into the opposite lane and collided with four oncoming vehicles before plunging into a ravine.
The impact of the collision was catastrophic.
Family Of Four Killed At The Scene
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/b5d875bb0674a806950bc9a3c402bd0c925306bd5287d06bb70bb5427bf2e439" />
The victims travelling in the Toyota Vios suffered the worst consequences of the crash.
They were identified as:
<ul>
<li>Mohd Aiman Mohd Rashid, 36</li>
<li>His wife, Nor Azlina Abd Latif, 33</li>
<li>Nor Azlina's mother, Semek Mat Soh, 73</li>
<li>Mohd Aiman's 10-year-old niece, Nur Airish Syifa Sidek</li>
</ul>
All four were pronounced dead at the scene after sustaining severe head and body injuries.
Emergency responders who arrived at the location found several victims trapped inside the badly damaged vehicle. In one particularly horrifying detail, firefighters revealed that the elderly woman had been thrown out of the Toyota Vios and landed on top of another vehicle involved in the collision.
The 22-year-old BMW driver later died while being transported to hospital, bringing the total death toll to five.
Several Others Injured

A number of other road users were also injured in the crash.
The 43-year-old driver of a Perodua Alza suffered leg injuries, while two child passengers aged 11 and seven sustained head injuries and were admitted for treatment.
Meanwhile, the 22-year-old Proton Wira driver suffered injuries to his mouth.
The driver of the second Mercedes-Benz, a 57-year-old woman, sustained minor chest and facial injuries, while her two passengers escaped unharmed.
All injured victims were taken to Hospital Enche' Besar Hajjah Khalsom in Kluang for treatment.
Teen Driver Arrested As Police Continue Investigation
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/6b218a258d98443f3baae997f71eec307d2ed7318b506e05f058e35d9fea2dbc" />
Following the crash, police arrested the 19-year-old Mercedes-Benz driver to assist with investigations.
His vehicle has been seized, while a urine screening test returned negative for prohibited substances.
The teenager was later remanded for two days to facilitate investigations under Section 42(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987, which covers reckless and dangerous driving.
Authorities are also investigating the wider case under Section 41(1) of the same Act, relating to causing death through reckless or dangerous driving.
Dashcam footage that has since circulated online allegedly shows both luxury vehicles travelling at high speed moments before the fatal collision.
Final Goodbye To A Beloved Daughter
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/1983d1397fb705156a00486d47f1dce6583272ec17d435ee87b91617318011b0" />
As investigations continue, heartbreaking stories from the victims' families have emerged.
One of the most emotional accounts came from Nurul Ain Mohd Rashid, the mother of 10-year-old victim Nur Airish Syifa. Speaking after her daughter's burial, she recalled their final moments together before the young girl left for Johor.
According to Nurul Ain, Airish hugged and kissed her several times before leaving and smiled as she said, "Goodbye Umi."
Those would become the last words she ever heard from her daughter.
The grieving mother also revealed that Airish had taken five of her shirts on the trip because they wore the same size. Tragically, the child was wearing one of those shirts when the accident occurred.
Nurul Ain shared that Airish had recently been excited about becoming an older sister after learning that her mother was five months pregnant.
"When she found out I was pregnant, she told me not to buy any baby clothes yet because she wanted to choose them herself," she said.
Family Had Already Suffered A Recent Loss
The tragedy has been made even more painful by the fact that Mohd Aiman's family had recently experienced another bereavement.
According to relatives, Mohd Aiman's father had passed away from intestinal cancer just two weeks earlier. Family members described the latest loss as almost impossible to comprehend, especially after having gathered together recently for a family celebration in Melaka before the fatal journey home.
Anthony Loke Condemns Reckless Driving
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/1c7dac3e230210636cf0422fd1af5395ef09bfb0785028859a4c4f8a9f180fba" />
Transport Minister Anthony Loke has strongly condemned the alleged reckless driving that led to the tragedy.
Describing the incident as entirely avoidable, Loke urged police to expedite investigations and ensure appropriate legal action is taken.
"This kind of driving is very irresponsible and completely unacceptable," he said.
He also reminded motorists that possessing a driving licence does not grant anyone the right to endanger the lives of others on the road.
"A driving licence is not permission to drive as you please to the point of causing disaster to innocent people," he added.
A Tragedy That Should Never Have Happened
What began as an ordinary journey home ended in one of the most heartbreaking road tragedies seen in recent months.
With five lives lost, including an entire family travelling together, the incident has once again highlighted the devastating consequences of reckless driving.
As police continue their investigation, many Malaysians are hoping the case serves as a sobering reminder that a few moments of irresponsible behaviour on the road can leave families shattered forever.

Five Killed In Tragic Johor Crash As Police Probe Alleged Street Racing Between Brothers

Gaming culture has exploded over the past few years, especially in Malaysia where more people are spending time and money building gaming setups, buying high-refresh monitors, mechanical keyboards and powerful PCs capable of running the latest AAA titles.
But as great as gaming PCs are, one problem has always followed gamers around &mdash; portability.
Not everyone wants to stay glued to a desk all day, and carrying a bulky gaming laptop around is hardly ideal either. That is exactly why handheld gaming PCs like the Steam Deck have become such a huge hit worldwide.
The Steam Deck Is Basically A Portable Gaming PC
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/2a71467ba15d1dcd33c52a935a952c645a37daee1c45a01f5599ae700aa709f1" />
Created by Valve, the Steam Deck is a handheld gaming console that essentially functions like a compact gaming computer. It allows players to access their Steam library on the go while still enjoying proper PC gaming performance.
Unlike traditional handheld consoles, the Steam Deck can run a wide variety of PC titles including games like Elden Ring, Cyberpunk 2077, Baldur&rsquo;s Gate 3 and even competitive titles such as Apex Legends and EA Sports FC.
The device comes with built-in controls, touchpads, a full Linux-based operating system called SteamOS, and support for external monitors, keyboards and controllers. In short, it is designed to bring the PC gaming experience into a portable form.
Depending on the storage variant, Steam Deck prices generally range between roughly RM2,000 to over RM4,000 in certain regions and reseller markets.
The OLED versions have become especially popular thanks to their improved battery life, better display quality and lighter build compared to the older LCD models.
Steam Deck Prices Skyrocket Overseas
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/0986fd0781cc3b29f1b3945b9282af6730eab975d6766b9f5275e3fc90a86943" />
Recently, Valve shocked gamers after significantly increasing Steam Deck OLED prices in North America.
The 512GB OLED model reportedly jumped from US$549 (around RM2,180) to US$789 (around RM3,134), while the 1TB OLED version increased from US$649 (around RM2,578) to a staggering US$949 (around RM3,769).
That means some buyers are now paying nearly RM1,200 more for the exact same device.
Valve explained that the Steam Deck itself has not changed, saying the price increases were caused by rising component costs, memory shortages and wider global logistical issues affecting the tech industry.
The growing demand for hardware from AI companies and data centres has also reportedly contributed to the ongoing shortages involving RAM and NAND storage components.
Even With Higher Prices, The Steam Deck Keeps Selling Out
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/ffe08829c5db662237908f1cb39b9aeb35744e21a88ce09546d6fcbfca93eb8c" />
Surprisingly, the massive price hikes have not slowed demand at all.
Reports overseas revealed that both Steam Deck OLED models sold out again in less than 24 hours after being restocked. In some regions, stock reportedly disappeared within just a few hours.
Valve&rsquo;s Steam store now warns that availability may fluctuate due to memory and storage shortages, with some countries seeing limited stock windows. While North America quickly ran out of units, the Steam Deck remains available in selected regions including parts of Europe, Australia and Asia through Valve&rsquo;s partner distributors.
The continued demand shows just how strong the handheld gaming market has become, especially among gamers looking for a more flexible way to enjoy PC gaming without needing a full desktop setup.
What Are The Alternatives To The Steam Deck?
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/6213a7fd8566db7ecd56f5db399f54489982f9691de4c4843aef972ff588082a" />
Of course, the Steam Deck is no longer the only handheld gaming PC on the market.
Several companies have jumped into the space with their own portable gaming devices, including the ASUS ROG Ally, Lenovo Legion Go and MSI Claw.
The ROG Ally in particular has become one of the Steam Deck&rsquo;s biggest rivals thanks to its Windows operating system and strong gaming performance. Lenovo&rsquo;s Legion Go has also gained attention for its larger display and detachable controllers.
Some gamers still prefer the Nintendo Switch for its simplicity and exclusive games, although it is far less powerful compared to handheld gaming PCs like the Steam Deck.
At the same time, refurbished or second-hand Steam Deck units have also become a popular option for gamers who want the experience without paying inflated prices for newer OLED models.
Would We Actually Spend RM3,000+ On A Steam Deck?
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/3fa4f2b3576753e46dca25c64abda35400247c38813661c61624150be99850d7" />
Honestly, spending over RM3,000 on a handheld gaming device sounds pretty wild at first.
For that kind of money, some people would rather build a proper desktop PC, upgrade their graphics card or even buy a PlayStation 5 alongside a decent monitor. But at the same time, the Steam Deck offers something many gamers genuinely want &mdash; freedom.
Being able to continue your PC games while lying in bed, travelling or simply relaxing away from a desk is a huge selling point, especially for working adults who may not always have time to sit at a gaming setup for hours. So while the current prices may feel painful, it is easy to see why gamers are still rushing to buy one every time stock becomes available.
The bigger question now is whether handheld gaming PCs are simply a trend &mdash; or the future of gaming itself.

Despite rising prices, the Steam Deck continues to sell out worldwide, but is it really worth the money?

Steam Deck Prices May Be Rising Worldwide But Gamers Still Can’t Get Enough Of Valve’s Handheld Console

Malaysians are no strangers to delays, technical faults, and sudden service interruptions involving the Klang Valley&rsquo;s public rail system.
However, commuters were left stunned on Thursday morning after an actual train derailment occurred near the Chan Sow Lin LRT Station, causing major disruptions along the Ampang and Sri Petaling LRT lines during rush hour.
The incident quickly sparked concern online, with many commuters questioning the reliability and safety of the country&rsquo;s rail infrastructure after videos and photos of passengers walking along the tracks began circulating across social media.
Train Derailed During Track Switch Operation
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/ef75d607fe076558b4ae45a982c35b91ad59dd30c5f793522a0c9de22e4d68f9" />
According to Rapid KL, the incident happened when an Ampang/Sri Petaling Line train derailed while passing through a track switch near Chan Sow Lin station.
The derailment reportedly caused the train to become immobilised, leading to widespread delays across several stations on both lines.
Rapid KL confirmed that 25 passengers were on board the train at the time of the incident.
Fortunately, all passengers were safely evacuated according to standard operating procedures and no injuries were reported.
The rail operator later confirmed that the photos and videos circulating online were genuine and showed commuters being guided along the tracks during the evacuation process.
Initial reports suggested the derailment may have been linked to a track switch failure, although investigations are still ongoing.
Thousands Of Commuters Left Stranded During Peak Hours
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/d6d284c557c40944b0090551bde2677fe57a8b8d52a95785fbb72d6a871426aa" /> Image for illustration purposes
The derailment caused chaos for thousands of commuters travelling to work during the busy morning period.
Many passengers reported severe delays, overcrowded platforms, and confusion as train services were interrupted across multiple stations. One commuter said what was normally a routine journey ended up taking an additional 45 minutes due to repeated train changes and overcrowding.
Another passenger described the incident as particularly alarming because commuters are used to delays &mdash; but not actual derailments.
Some commuters also said they may consider switching to e-hailing services or working from home temporarily if disruptions continue over the coming days.
Alternative Train Routes And Shuttle Buses Activated
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/134ca3f6e8b57abfc333c407a4aa70b7842a4df1f68494f25a00a0fef907e6d2" />
Following the disruption, Rapid KL activated several alternative train arrangements and free shuttle bus services to reduce the impact on commuters.
Among the temporary service changes introduced were:
<ul>
<li>Trains from Sentul Timur turning back at Pudu Station every four minutes</li>
<li>Shuttle train services between Cheras and Bandar Tasik Selatan</li>
<li>Shuttle services between Ampang and Pandan Jaya</li>
<li>Putra Heights-bound trains terminating at Bandar Tasik Selatan</li>
</ul>
Free shuttle buses were also deployed between stations including Hang Tuah, Chan Sow Lin, Maluri, Pandan Jaya, and Cheras.
Passengers heading towards the city centre were advised to switch to the Putrajaya Line through Sungai Besi station.
Rapid KL said repair and recovery works are currently ongoing while technical teams continue investigating the cause of the derailment.
Anthony Loke Orders Immediate Investigation
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/df5ab38c339a2c36d4e7ae15c0f3f973df204598569aaa1b966142cc7ecf81b2" />
Following the incident, Transport Minister Anthony Loke ordered the Land Public Transport Agency (APAD) to immediately launch a full investigation into the derailment.
Loke stressed that the incident was far more serious than an ordinary service disruption, noting that any derailment carries significant safety risks for both passengers and railway staff.
He confirmed that APAD has already opened an investigation paper while a special task force has been established to determine the root cause of the incident.
According to the minister, the findings will be submitted to the Cabinet as soon as possible before being released publicly.

&ldquo;Business-As-Usual&rdquo; Mentality Must End
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/335fd3c203a2f557804e1ae5e4eeb23aa9d902dd45b960a074f1d43e1e7a5f35" />
Loke also issued a stern warning to Prasarana Malaysia, saying the company&rsquo;s management and board could no longer afford to operate with a &ldquo;business-as-usual&rdquo; mindset.
He stressed that safety and reliability standards within public transport systems cannot be compromised under any circumstances.
The minister added that severe disciplinary action &mdash; including dismissals &mdash; should be taken against any individuals found negligent in relation to the incident.
According to him, accountability must apply at every level of management in order to restore public confidence in Malaysia&rsquo;s rail system.
APAD Warns Of Enforcement Action If Negligence Is Found
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/c956c39357407ba739509349188a0fa30a3391c22ece07a9b688b63000c75f76" />
Meanwhile, APAD confirmed that it has conducted multiple inspections at the derailment site together with officials from the Ministry of Transport.
The agency said investigations will focus on operational procedures, maintenance records, rail safety systems, and compliance with licence conditions.
Rapid KL has also been instructed to submit a full report regarding the incident.
Authorities warned that enforcement action could be taken under the Land Public Transport Act 2010 if investigations uncover negligence, non-compliance, or failures involving rail safety responsibilities.
The incident has once again reignited public frustration over the consistency and reliability of Malaysia&rsquo;s urban rail services, especially after several recent disruptions involving the LRT network.

Train services are expected to return to normal by Wednesday (3 June) following the derailment incident.
