OpenAI has officially stepped into the consumer hardware market, but its debut product isn't the long-rumoured AI companion device many were anticipating. Instead, the company has unveiled the Codex Micro, a compact mechanical macropad designed specifically for programmers using its AI coding assistant, Codex.
Developed in collaboration with keyboard maker Work Louder, the device is OpenAI's first branded piece of consumer hardware. While it won't replace your everyday keyboard, it acts as a dedicated controller that gives developers quicker access to AI-powered coding tools and workflows.
OpenAI's First Hardware Is Built For AI Coding
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/9f00a4bea9c84d00a0b9c2791e8fdb3018f1d6798ef6dd42831e30fd9e5e99d2" />
Rather than creating an all-purpose AI gadget, OpenAI has focused on a niche audience: software developers.
The Codex Micro is a programmable 13-key mechanical macropad featuring a rotary dial, an analogue joystick and RGB lighting. It is designed to streamline interactions with Codex, OpenAI's AI coding assistant, allowing users to perform common tasks with dedicated physical controls instead of navigating menus or typing repeated prompts.
Among its default shortcuts are actions such as reviewing pull requests, debugging code, accepting or rejecting AI-generated suggestions and managing multiple coding sessions simultaneously.
Like most programmable macro keyboards, users can also remap every key to suit their own workflow, making the device useful beyond Codex if desired.
Physical Controls Designed Around AI Workflows
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/3a4bac0b47eec5549577673ba7f9f9a90b499ba035f122ec3a2b9e69163945d2" />
One of the Codex Micro's standout features is its six illuminated "Agent Keys", which provide live visual updates on AI coding agents.
Instead of constantly checking the desktop app, users can tell what their AI is doing simply by glancing at the keypad. Different colours indicate different statuses, including:
<ul>
<li>White: Idle</li>
<li>Blue: Processing or "thinking"</li>
<li>Green: Task completed</li>
<li>Amber: Waiting for user input</li>
<li>Red: Error encountered</li>
</ul>
Tapping an Agent Key immediately switches to the corresponding Codex session, while double-tapping brings it into focus.
The rotary dial adjusts Codex's reasoning level, allowing users to choose how much computing power and time the AI spends solving a task. Meanwhile, the joystick can be assigned to navigate coding workflows or other programmable functions.
OpenAI is also including 32 interchangeable keycaps, allowing users to customise shortcuts with different icons and labels.
Compatible With Windows And Mac
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/c1ff3e78b9abe30c44083ae30a4387b62f54d8eba55ac73994eb3ce6646391d8" />
The Codex Micro connects via either Bluetooth or USB-C and supports both Windows and macOS.
Buyers can also choose between silent mechanical switches or traditional clicky switches depending on personal preference.
Although the device is clearly designed around Codex, Work Louder's software allows users to create several additional programmable layers, meaning it can double as a productivity controller for other applications.
It Costs Around RM1,200 To Import Into Malaysia
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/1f5d721ddd40c8c689a6210b0bdeaa9d8b951a3769b0be88f9a94690e60579d2" />
The Codex Micro is priced at US$230 (around RM950) and is currently available for pre-order through OpenAI's online Supply Co. store.
However, Malaysian buyers should expect to pay considerably more.
Shipping alone adds roughly RM300, pushing the total cost to over RM1,200 before any import duties or taxes are applied. At the time of writing, there is no indication that the keypad will be officially distributed in Malaysia.
Given the price, many online users have questioned whether a dedicated AI keypad offers enough value, especially when programmable macro pads and gaming peripherals capable of similar shortcuts are already available at lower prices.
Not The Jony Ive Device Everyone Has Been Waiting For
The launch has also surprised many because it is not the mysterious AI hardware OpenAI has been developing with former Apple design chief Jony Ive.
That separate project remains under development and is expected to be a portable, screenless AI companion designed to integrate deeply with ChatGPT. Reports suggest it could feature microphones, cameras and sensors to better understand a user's surroundings, although OpenAI has yet to officially reveal the final design.
As a result, the Codex Micro appears to be more of a limited-edition collaboration than the company's flagship hardware vision.
A Small First Step Into Consumer Hardware
OpenAI has described the Codex Micro as a limited-run collaboration with Work Louder, suggesting it is not intended to become a mass-market product.
Instead, it serves as an early glimpse into the company's broader hardware ambitions while offering a specialised accessory for developers already relying heavily on AI-assisted coding.
Whether the Codex Micro justifies its premium price will ultimately depend on how much users value having dedicated physical controls for Codex. For casual users, it may feel unnecessary, but for developers juggling multiple AI coding agents throughout the day, it could become a useful desktop companion.

Apple has officially confirmed the date for its next major iPhone launch event, and for Malaysian viewers, the event will take place on 10 September 2026 due to the time difference.
The event will be held at Apple Park in Cupertino, California, but Malaysians can tune in at 1am on Thursday, 10 September.
This year's event is also expected to be significant as it will be the first major iPhone launch led by John Ternus, who is set to become Apple&rsquo;s CEO on 1 September, with Tim Cook moving into the role of executive chairman.
Apple is teasing the event with the tagline &ldquo;Surprise and Shine&rdquo;, although the company has yet to reveal exactly which products will make their debut.
iPhone 18 Pro And Pro Max Expected
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/8b9b3d21bc2c9a7b4e5074af90d5a6cde8e803f86939ee4d0200f0c342d5c14f" />
As with previous September events, the latest iPhone models are expected to be the main attraction.
Apple is widely expected to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max, with reports pointing towards improvements to performance, battery life and camera capabilities.
Rather than introducing a completely new design, the Pro models are expected to bring a number of refinements to the current generation. One reported change is a smaller Dynamic Island, which could give users more usable screen space.
New colour options are also rumoured, with Dark Cherry reportedly being considered as one of the headline finishes for the iPhone 18 Pro series.
As always, these specifications, colours and design changes remain rumours until Apple officially announces them.
The Foldable iPhone Could Steal The Show
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/edef0634203a0d6787e3cfbdeb3e01f64f3286af62db8e1ea9e1449a6626783f" />
The biggest announcement could be Apple's long-rumoured first foldable iPhone.
The device has been referred to as the iPhone Ultra, iPhone Fold and iPhone Duo in various reports, although its official name remains unknown. Apple is expected to use a book-style foldable design, allowing the phone to open into a much larger display that could offer an experience closer to a small iPad.
Reports have suggested an outer display of around 5.5 inches and an inner screen of approximately 7.8 inches. The device could also be extremely thin when unfolded. Should it launch, the foldable iPhone would represent Apple's most significant change to the iPhone form factor since the introduction of the iPhone X in 2017.
It would also see Apple entering a foldable smartphone market that Samsung and several Chinese manufacturers have already established.
Malaysia Could Be Among The First Markets
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/caa768d4698445daf3d771ab8c30f8e7b46a90cf19567e0ff7ec38e91d47bf1f" />
For Malaysian Apple fans, the good news is that the wait may not be particularly long after the announcement.
Apple has historically included Malaysia among its earlier launch markets for new iPhones. Based on its previous release patterns, the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max could potentially be available for pre-order shortly after the event, followed by retail availability the following week.
However, Apple has yet to confirm the Malaysian pre-order or release dates.
The foldable iPhone could have a different launch timeline. Reports suggest Apple may unveil the device in September but release it later or only in selected markets due to production challenges.
Apple Watch And Other Products Could Also Appear
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/8382c44e709f6b54ac72a7ee8e2e433bc91e0671d22ae5f3948a2cbfcc6e0fa4" />
The iPhone is expected to dominate the event, but Apple may also introduce new wearable devices.
Among the products rumoured to be in development are the Apple Watch Series 12 and a new Apple Watch Ultra.
Read: <a href="https://myc.my/articles/5259/apples-camera-equipped-airpods-leak-reveals-how-visual-intelligence-could-work">Apple&rsquo;s Camera-Equipped AirPods Leak Reveals How Visual Intelligence Could Work</a>
There have also been reports of updated AirPods, although Apple's rumoured camera-equipped AirPods are not expected to be ready for this particular event.
Apple is also believed to be working on new home products and other accessories, but some of these could be saved for a separate announcement later this year.
What About The Standard iPhone 18?
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/3cdb595a8244051fc8a6cdc8ee33809fef524fedd9e4823f4b4448eee7cccc22" />
Apple could also be changing its traditional iPhone launch strategy.
Reports suggest the standard iPhone 18, iPhone 18e and a new-generation iPhone Air may not arrive until 2027, rather than launching alongside the Pro models. A staggered release would allow Apple to place greater emphasis on its premium iPhones during the September event while creating another major sales period later in the year.
Apple has not officially confirmed this release strategy.
Apple Intelligence Could Be A Major Focus
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/b0381b02119fcc88379abdb51521d638efa0e9214320010c276afbd34ce048e1" />
Beyond hardware, Apple Intelligence and the next generation of Siri are expected to feature prominently.
Apple has been working on making Siri more capable of understanding context, working across applications and handling more complex requests.
The upcoming iPhone models could therefore play an important role in Apple's wider AI strategy, particularly as the company continues trying to catch up with competitors in the artificial intelligence space.
When Can Malaysians Watch The Event?
For viewers in Malaysia, Apple's event will begin at 1am on Thursday, 10 September 2026.
The keynote will be streamed through Apple's official website and YouTube channel, meaning Malaysians can watch the announcements live from home.
With a new CEO, the iPhone 18 Pro series and potentially Apple's first foldable iPhone all expected to take centre stage, 10 September could be one of Apple's biggest iPhone launch days in years.

Apple Confirms iPhone Launch Event For 10 September — Here’s What Malaysians Can Expect

TNG eWallet users now have another option when it comes to accessing financing, following a new partnership between TNG Digital and GXBank.
Through the integration, eligible users can now apply for GXBank FlexiCredit directly through the CashLoan feature in the TNG eWallet app, without having to open a separate GXBank bank account.
The move expands TNG eWallet&rsquo;s growing financial services ecosystem, giving its more than 27 million verified users access to another form of regulated financing through an app many already use for their daily transactions.
What Is GXBank FlexiCredit?
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/92d93520ecc80fe04982ad00ae51835720ae6a4d0f62dc20cdee7fe6d75444e4" />
Unlike a conventional personal loan that gives you a fixed lump sum, FlexiCredit works as a revolving line of credit.
Once approved, users receive a credit limit of up to RM150,000, which they can draw from whenever they need it. Instead of borrowing the entire amount upfront, users only take out the money they require.
As the amount borrowed is repaid, the available credit limit is replenished, meaning users can access the remaining facility again without submitting a new application. GXBank says there are also no annual or processing fees, while interest is only charged on the amount actually drawn down.
Repayment periods range from six to 60 months, with flat interest rates starting from 3.78% per annum, equivalent to an effective interest rate of 6.45% per annum.
Apply Without Opening A New Bank Account
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/876a223f059ee8f8e3b6533bf53769016e60dc3fb77b3174590361e7e7f6512e" />
One of the main benefits of the new TNG eWallet integration is that eligible users do not need to open a separate GXBank account to apply.
The application can be completed through GOFinance &gt; CashLoan within the TNG eWallet app.
Users can select their preferred credit limit and repayment tenure, provide their income information and complete the required identity verification. Depending on their employment status, supporting documents such as an EPF statement or bank statement may also be required.
TNG Digital and GXBank said the integration is aimed at making regulated financing more accessible, particularly for Malaysians who may have limited credit history or find traditional banking processes more difficult to navigate.
Who Can Apply For FlexiCredit?
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/ee07f0996c5f45fbe73d571754b6048b6eea83f80c91b7474703f3b61b9877d9" />
The facility is available to eligible Malaysian citizens who meet GXBank's requirements.
Applicants need to have a fully verified TNG eWallet account and meet the applicable age and income criteria. The stated minimum gross income is RM1,500 per month, or RM18,000 annually, with both salaried and self-employed individuals able to apply.
However, approval is not guaranteed simply because someone meets the basic requirements.
The financing offer shown through CashLoan is determined based on the applicant's eligibility, requested amount and repayment period, as well as the bank's credit assessment and applicable regulatory requirements.
How To Apply Through TNG eWallet
<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/29A9JkvkrFk" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
The application process is designed to be completed digitally.
After opening the TNG eWallet app, users can tap GOFinance, head to CashLoan and select GXBank FlexiCredit.
From there, applicants can choose their desired credit limit and repayment tenure before providing their financial and employment details.
Once submitted, applications can typically be processed within minutes, although the actual approval time may vary depending on the information and documents required.
Approved users can then access their available credit through the CashLoan dashboard and draw down funds when needed.
What Could Malaysians Use It For?
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/24e34c656579bf901b537f43fbb8bcb6153a30f6f5e80c23ab5786b6e5661fc0" />
According to GXBank, existing FlexiCredit users are using the facility for purposes including emergencies, managing cash flow and making larger purchases.
Its revolving structure could be useful for people who do not necessarily need a large amount of money at once but want access to an approved credit facility when unexpected expenses arise.
However, as with any form of borrowing, users should consider the interest costs and ensure they are comfortable with the repayment commitments before drawing down funds.
Part Of TNG eWallet's Growing Financial Ecosystem
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/35d58c747003fdd8d6d5a745335d6dd165bee65e679b50709458dc9f430ca6d7" />
The partnership is part of TNG Digital's wider push to turn TNG eWallet into more than just a payments platform.
Its GOFinance hub already brings together various financial services, including investments, insurance, credit and remittance options. By integrating products from financial institutions such as GXBank, TNG Digital is aiming to create a broader financial ecosystem within a platform Malaysians already use regularly.
For GXBank, meanwhile, bringing FlexiCredit directly into TNG eWallet provides another way to reach customers who may prefer managing their finances digitally.
Another Step Into Digital Banking
The new integration means eligible Malaysians can now access up to RM150,000 in revolving credit through TNG eWallet, without needing to separately sign up for a GXBank account.
With flexible repayment periods and the ability to draw funds only when needed, FlexiCredit is positioned as an alternative to traditional lump-sum personal loans.
Still, the key point is that it remains a credit facility, not free cash. Users should carefully consider the interest rate, repayment period and amount they can realistically afford before using it.

A devastating flash flood and mudslide struck the Nepal-Tibet border on 26 August 2026, sweeping through villages, roads, bridges and infrastructure and leaving hundreds of people unaccounted for.
Among those reported missing are 17 Malaysians, alongside hundreds of other foreign travellers and Nepali nationals. The disaster has triggered large-scale search and rescue efforts on both sides of the border, while authorities continue to warn of further flooding.

<script async="" src="https://platform.x.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

The disaster struck the mountainous Rasuwa district in northern Nepal, close to the border with Tibet.
A sudden surge of water, mud and rocks swept into the Bhote Koshi River, devastating areas including Syabrubesi and Timure. Homes, vehicles and bridges were washed away, while roads, communications and electricity infrastructure were severely damaged.
A major border crossing at Gyirong Port on the Tibetan side was also hit by a mudslide, cutting road access as well as communications and power links.
Dramatic footage from the affected areas showed torrents of muddy water carrying vehicles and debris, with bridges and buildings collapsing under the force of the flood.
What Caused The Flash Flood?
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/01afe22a5bc7fbf43803bcbdcdfb245923d9a0e38bddbd8b64bb2e7bc0465865" />
Initial reports suggested that a 4.4-magnitude earthquake may have triggered an avalanche of ice and rock, which then blocked the Lhende Khola river before sending a huge volume of water downstream.
However, further geological analysis has raised questions over whether an earthquake was actually responsible.
The US Geological Survey later said its analysis indicated that the seismic energy detected in the area was instead caused by a glacial collapse and debris flow, rather than an earthquake.
Experts from the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development have similarly pointed to a rock-and-ice avalanche in Nepal that may have blocked the river and caused the cascading flood.
The exact sequence of events is still being investigated.
17 Malaysians Among Hundreds Missing
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/ecdebb6d08aa5ea9300ffd90fe3d7bca7a562f9e4c3bc72ab2e28141721683d8" />
The Nepal Tourism Board reported that 384 travellers, including 291 foreign nationals and 93 Nepalis, had been reported missing from the affected areas.
The missing foreigners include 17 Malaysians, more than 100 Indians, 12 Britons, four South Africans, three Americans, an Australian and a Dutch national.
The Malaysian Foreign Ministry said its embassy in Kathmandu was coordinating with local authorities to locate affected Malaysians and establish their safety.
Because roads and communication networks in the region have been heavily damaged, authorities are facing difficulties confirming the whereabouts of those who remain uncontactable.
Families trying to trace Malaysian travellers have been advised to provide relevant passport and travel details to the Malaysian Embassy for coordination with authorities.
Rescue Efforts Hampered By Difficult Conditions
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/e5376b98ebdc77d301d5b664d760b456afa0cf282c6eb7f10577608402d6c758" />
Nepal has deployed police, military personnel and rescue teams to the affected areas, but the terrain and weather have made operations extremely difficult.
Rescue helicopters have reportedly struggled to land in some of the worst-hit areas because of high water levels, poor visibility and continuing rain. Authorities are also moving residents living in low-lying and riverside areas to safer locations as they warn that another flood could occur.
The concern comes from a remaining blockage upstream, which experts believe could release another sudden surge of water if it collapses. China has also launched a major rescue operation around Gyirong Port, with hundreds of personnel and emergency vehicles deployed to search for missing people.
Chinese President Xi Jinping has called for an all-out effort to locate survivors and strengthen monitoring and early warning systems to prevent further disasters.
India And Other Countries Offer Assistance
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/e9cef444e32e3c49f398aa5c47eb9ba908ef08d7777ce5aa56bd6126d0b1f1c7" />
The disaster has also prompted support from neighbouring countries.
India is coordinating with Nepal on rescue and relief operations and has deployed aircraft carrying emergency supplies and medical equipment. Helicopters have also been earmarked for rescue and evacuation efforts.
Other countries, including South Korea, have offered assistance as authorities work to account for their citizens in the affected region.
The scale of the disaster has also prompted flood alerts downstream in India's Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, as rivers flowing from the Himalayas continue to rise.
A Region Already Vulnerable To Floods
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/555db7d6abb09567fb03691da5511c73389106b363bc6336d6ce70aebe6a2ac4" />
The Himalayan region regularly experiences floods and landslides during the June to September monsoon season, but experts say the growing threat of extreme weather is adding to the danger.
Scientists have warned that rising temperatures are accelerating glacier melt and contributing to the instability of ice and mountain slopes.
The region has experienced similar disasters before. Last year, flooding along the Bhote Koshi River killed people and destroyed a bridge connecting Nepal and China, disrupting transport and trade.
Rescue Operation Continues
The full scale of the devastation is still emerging, with authorities working to verify the number of missing and dead.
For the families of the 17 Malaysians and hundreds of other missing travellers, the immediate priority remains locating their loved ones.
With roads destroyed, communications disrupted and another possible flood threat hanging over the region, rescue teams in Nepal and Tibet are continuing their efforts under extremely challenging conditions.

Nepal-Tibet Border Flash Flood Leaves Hundreds Missing, Including 17 Malaysians

Marvel fans in Malaysia will soon have another chance to experience Avengers: Endgame on the big screen, with the 2019 Infinity Saga finale returning to cinemas as Avengers: Endgame Encore on 25 September 2026.
The special re-release comes ahead of Avengers: Doomsday, which is scheduled to arrive in Malaysian cinemas in December. Rather than simply bringing back the original film, Marvel is adding new material intended to connect Endgame with the next Avengers story.
For Malaysian fans, however, there is one important thing to note: ticket sales and exact showtimes have yet to be announced locally. TGV Cinemas currently lists upcoming titles through its platform, but Avengers: Endgame Encore ticketing has not been made available yet, so fans will have to wait for local cinema announcements.
What Is Different About Avengers: Endgame Encore?
<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/L2NAh3CIdig?si=79QGqn4sStlk27E1" width="560" height="314" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
For anyone who somehow needs a reminder, Avengers: Endgame brought the Infinity Saga to its emotional conclusion after Thanos wiped out half of all life in the universe.
The surviving Avengers eventually reunited for one final mission, travelling through the past to recover the Infinity Stones before facing Thanos in the film's massive final battle. The Encore version will largely remain the same film fans watched in 2019, but it reportedly has a 185-minute runtime, around four minutes longer than the original theatrical cut.
Those additional minutes are the interesting part.
Marvel has confirmed that the re-release will include an exclusive look at Avengers: Doomsday, with an additional sneak peek for audiences watching on IMAX and Disney's Infinity Vision-certified screens.
The New Footage Is Expected To Connect To Doomsday
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/00b420e6f883e0941607c1c395c94992815d1a527a0f10a7fc92927ff16a8ce4" />
Director Joe Russo has previously indicated that the new material is intended to create a bridge between Endgame and Doomsday.
That means fans probably should not expect an extended version of Tony Stark's funeral or a collection of random deleted scenes from 2019. Instead, the biggest reason to watch Endgame Encore could be what happens after the original story finishes.
Marvel has not revealed exactly what the new footage will show, so anything beyond the confirmed Doomsday preview remains speculation. One obvious possibility is a post-credits sequence or additional scene following the conclusion of Endgame. The original film famously did not have a traditional post-credits scene because Marvel wanted it to feel like the definitive ending to the Infinity Saga.
With Doomsday now around the corner, an added scene at the end would make sense as a way of setting up the next chapter.
Could Robert Downey Jr.&rsquo;s Doctor Doom Be In It?
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/698a014f524c2dfa222e2c31895cca3ac9a29adcd085c56d9578c870a63d60ee" />
This is probably the question Marvel fans are most interested in.
Robert Downey Jr. is returning to the MCU as Doctor Doom in Avengers: Doomsday, despite Tony Stark's death in Endgame.
Marvel and the Russo brothers have repeatedly stressed that Downey's Doom is a new character, rather than simply Iron Man returning under another name.
That makes the Endgame Encore footage particularly intriguing. Could Marvel use the re-release to establish a connection between Tony Stark, the multiverse and Doctor Doom?
There is currently no confirmation that Downey Jr. will appear in the new Endgame footage, so fans should treat that possibility purely as speculation.
Premium Screens Could Get Extra Footage
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/496807342afea8c6da2a7eabc53a6a22c696b6568b141d5b2fc0fc9ea2a6d024" />
The re-release is also being positioned as a premium cinema event.
Endgame Encore will feature special material through IMAX and Infinity Vision, Disney's new premium large-format certification. GSC describes Infinity Vision as a certification focused on large screens, bright images and enhanced sound, with Avengers: Endgame Encore and Avengers: Doomsday among its first films.
For hardcore MCU fans, this could make premium screenings the preferred way to experience the re-release.
When Can Malaysians Get Their Tickets?
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/ac90ee61f29bbf5f11ea7bd53629b1d02e6f9db019a489191dc2d706423f52dd" />
Avengers: Endgame Encore is set to hit Malaysian cinemas on 24 September 2026, with both GSC Cinemas and TGV Cinemas listing the film for its local release.
However, ticket sales have yet to be announced by either cinema. Fans will have to wait for official updates on the ticket sale date, showtimes, ticket prices and available premium formats such as IMAX and Infinity Vision.
For now, mark 24 September on your calendar and keep an eye on GSC and TGV&rsquo;s official channels for ticketing updates.
Is Endgame Encore Worth Watching?
For casual viewers, probably not essential &mdash; especially if you've already watched Endgame multiple times and can stream it at home.
For hardcore Marvel fans, however, the equation is different.
The film is returning with new Doomsday-related footage, and Marvel is deliberately positioning it as a bridge between the Infinity Saga and the upcoming Avengers film. With Avengers: Doomsday arriving in December, Endgame Encore could potentially contain the first meaningful clues about where the MCU is heading next.
So yes, the original ending may still break your heart &mdash; but this time, there could be something waiting for you after it ends.

Still not over Endgame? Marvel is bringing it back with extra footage designed to bridge the gap to Avengers: Doomsday.

Avengers: Endgame Encore Is Coming To Malaysia — Here’s What To Expect

Few Malaysian food brands have built the kind of hype surrounding Khairul Aming&rsquo;s products. Whenever a new product drops, fans often rush to get their hands on it before it inevitably sells out within minutes.
But with that popularity comes another familiar problem: scalpers.
The issue recently resurfaced on Threads after a user questioned why Sambal Nyet Bilis was being resold for significantly higher prices, prompting Khairul Aming himself to respond.
Khairul Aming&rsquo;s Products Often Sell Out In Minutes
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/a5475ababdcaadbb3fea6907b16d41d25b25e18009443315673fa70a35cc4f61" />
Khairul Aming has built a reputation for creating products that generate huge demand even before they officially launch.
His latest Sambal Nyet Bilis, for example, reportedly sold out in under two minutes after being released on TikTok. A subsequent restock of 150,000 bottles on Shopee also sold out within minutes.
With demand consistently outstripping supply, it is perhaps unsurprising that some buyers have turned to resellers &mdash; and some resellers have taken advantage of the situation by charging more. Beyond the products themselves, Khairul Aming&rsquo;s launches have also become popular for the experiences and giveaways that come with them.
Read: <a href="https://myc.my/articles/5220/khairul-aming-offers-fans-a-trip-to-italy-with-sambal-nyet-bilis-launch-giveaway">Khairul Aming Offers Fans A Trip To Italy With Sambal Nyet Bilis Launch Giveaway!</a>
His previous campaigns have included opportunities for customers to win trips, including a New Zealand holiday, while his latest initiatives have teased another potential getaway to Italy. These giveaways have added another layer of excitement around his product launches, encouraging even more people to participate.
But the popularity of the products has also brought one major headache: scalpers.
Sambal Nyet Allegedly Being Resold For RM25
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/159735b4cb840b1d7511335131de168a1a121b96b341b35f6080a5d51cd01899" />
A recent Threads post highlighted the issue after a user claimed that Sambal Nyet Bilis, originally sold for around RM15.90 per bottle, was being resold for as much as RM25.
The user questioned whether Khairul Aming was aware of the situation or simply chose not to address it. They acknowledged that scalpers will always exist when demand is high, but argued that the situation had gone too far.
The complaint eventually caught Khairul Aming&rsquo;s attention, leading him to explain why dealing with resellers is not as straightforward as some may think.
&ldquo;Takkan Saya Nak Pergi Ketuk Pintu Rumah Dia?&rdquo;
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/15551439725eb41684c03547e85c0280ba3c5837b0bfb64bd34129ea30d8db49" />
Rather than ignoring the criticism, Khairul Aming responded directly and pointed out the practical limitation faced by any business once a product has already been purchased.
&ldquo;Sambal tu dah kat tangan dia, apa saya boleh buat. Takkan saya nak pergi ketuk pintu rumah dia. Saya pun tak kenal pun siapa yang jual balik tu.&rdquo;
He also said he hoped people would understand that he could not control everything that happened once the product had left his hands.
According to the entrepreneur, his response to the criticism was particularly frustrating because it appeared to suggest that he was deliberately allowing scalpers to resell his products at inflated prices.
He stressed that his team was already working hard to produce enough products to meet demand.
He&rsquo;s Open To Solutions
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/e60052b3a11278d0fdbf0d04f8164eacd40a42e56f5f713960e11af495ddee5a" />
Interestingly, Khairul Aming did not simply dismiss the criticism.
Instead, he challenged the commenter to suggest a realistic solution that could potentially be implemented. He essentially offered to consider the idea if there was a practical way to prevent or reduce scalping.
That response was welcomed by some netizens, who felt it was unfair to blame Khairul Aming for something that happens after a customer has already completed a legitimate purchase.
Others pointed out that scalping is not unique to Sambal Nyet, with limited-stock and highly sought-after products regularly being resold at higher prices.
The Scalper Problem Is Bigger Than Sambal Nyet
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/b49111fbc5083ba52746ad1692cbc0e1ee49df468199662f4a281040c4702692" />
At its core, the issue comes down to supply and demand.
When a product sells out almost immediately, there will always be people willing to pay more to get it without waiting for the next restock.
One way to discourage the practice is simply not to buy from scalpers. If resold products remain unsold at inflated prices, there is less incentive for people to purchase large quantities purely for resale.
For Khairul Aming, the challenge is finding the balance between producing enough Sambal Nyet to meet demand while ensuring that his products remain accessible to genuine customers.
For now, the entrepreneur appears to be listening to the criticism &mdash; but as he pointed out, once the sambal is already in someone else&rsquo;s hands, controlling what happens next is another matter entirely.

Khairul Aming Responds To Sambal Nyet Scalpers Selling Bottles For RM25

Haze continues to affect several parts of Malaysia, with air quality deteriorating across Sarawak, the Klang Valley and parts of the peninsula as smoke from fires in Indonesia contributes to worsening conditions.
Authorities have urged Malaysians, particularly vulnerable groups, to limit outdoor activities and monitor the latest Air Pollutant Index (API) readings as the haze persists.
Several Areas Record Unhealthy API Readings
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/b84a625f686710fe45fc355327857b9e1f7ea2592b43eced66bba7ed90832b8b" />
As of 26 August 2026, several areas nationwide were recording unhealthy air quality, according to the latest Air Pollutant Index Management System (APIMS) readings.
In Sarawak, Sri Aman recorded an API reading of 167, followed by IPD Serian at 164 and Samarahan at 162.
The Klang Valley was also affected, with Cheras recording 159, Shah Alam 157, Johan Setia 158 and Batu Muda 152. Putrajaya recorded 158, while Nilai in Negeri Sembilan recorded 162.
An API reading between 101 and 200 is classified as unhealthy, while 201 to 300 is considered very unhealthy and readings above 300 are hazardous. Malaysia's API readings are updated hourly from monitoring stations nationwide.
Haze Linked To Fires In Indonesia
&nbsp;<img src="https://r2.myc.my/d4ecac6140196b96f959dffee4aae341bf5f0126ad2bfd9627a413ce5bee570c" />
The worsening haze comes as Indonesia continues efforts to contain forest and land fires in several parts of the country, particularly Sumatra and Kalimantan.
Smoke from these fires has crossed into neighbouring areas, particularly Sarawak, while dry conditions and the Southwest Monsoon have contributed to the spread of haze across the region.
Indonesia has stepped up firefighting efforts, deploying thousands of personnel alongside helicopters for water-bombing operations and other measures to reach areas that are difficult to access by land.
Malaysia and Indonesia are also increasing cooperation to tackle the situation.
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/52cf96adf45bfc171669a5b6792366832174c4941c85d3a8775540a9813ba2d3" />
Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability Minister Datuk Seri Arthur Joseph Kurup said both countries had agreed to strengthen preventive measures and early firefighting efforts, particularly as the El Ni&ntilde;o phenomenon is expected to intensify towards October.
Malaysia has also received permission from Indonesia to conduct cloud-seeding operations in Indonesian airspace near shared border areas. The National Disaster Management Agency and Malaysian Meteorological Department are preparing the operational schedule in coordination with Indonesian authorities.
Indonesia Investigates Alleged Deliberate Fires
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/b43d1460a080ea19213a4d738182972552df7f73e9558d84a1756980f72278e0" />
Indonesian authorities are also investigating whether some of the fires were deliberately started for land clearing.
As of 22 August, Indonesia's police had identified 72 suspects, many of whom were reportedly farmers and daily workers accused of manually burning land.
Authorities are also working with Indonesia's Financial Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre to investigate whether companies or individuals may have provided funding for the burning activities.
Investigators reportedly recovered items including lighters, fuel, machetes, chainsaws and oil palm seedlings from some locations, raising suspicions that certain fires may have been deliberately started for plantation development.
Indonesia has deployed tens of thousands of personnel and aerial firefighting assets to contain the fires, while continuing to monitor hotspots across affected provinces.
Malaysians Falling Ill As Haze Continues
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/0bbcbbda7e7ff9d30cb6fd7a8e68eda5901a5b736c74b1a556d935c920dfca5f" />
The worsening air quality is also being reflected in Malaysia's health statistics.
Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad previously revealed that asthma cases recorded through the Health Ministry's surveillance system jumped by 259%, increasing from 61 cases in epidemiological week 32 to 219 cases in week 33.
Cases of upper respiratory tract infections also rose by 124%, from 1,637 to 3,674 during the same period.
The Health Ministry has advised Malaysians, especially children, older people and those with respiratory or heart conditions, to take extra precautions when API readings become unhealthy.
People are encouraged to reduce strenuous outdoor activities, stay hydrated and avoid unnecessary exposure to haze.
Those experiencing breathing difficulties or other symptoms are advised to seek medical attention.
Haze And Heat Could Add To Health Risks
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/16f6f4f0688f8474723f84b8eeff6d07da6910895a2b7edb9f37521bd1417e21" />
Malaysia is also continuing to monitor heat-related illnesses alongside the haze.
Dr Dzulkefly said 90 heat-related illness cases had been recorded nationwide up to epidemiological week 33, including 71 cases of heat exhaustion, 14 cases of heatstroke and five cases of heat cramps.
Nine cases were recorded during week 33 alone, including eight involving participants at SUKMA Selangor 2026. One person required hospital treatment.
With haze and hot weather occurring at the same time, Malaysians are being encouraged to check air quality readings before planning outdoor activities.
What Should You Do During Hazy Conditions?
When API levels reach the unhealthy range, Malaysians should consider reducing time spent outdoors, particularly when haze is visibly heavy.
People with asthma, respiratory conditions and cardiovascular issues should take additional precautions, while children and older adults may also be more sensitive to poor air quality.
Keeping windows closed when outdoor air quality is particularly poor, staying hydrated and avoiding smoking or smoky environments can also help reduce exposure.
For now, authorities in Malaysia and Indonesia continue to monitor the situation closely as efforts to control the fires and improve regional air quality continue.

Haze Worsens Across Malaysia As Air Quality Reaches Unhealthy Levels

Motorists travelling through Kajang and Putrajaya are advised to plan their journeys ahead as several major roads will be closed in stages this week for rehearsals and preparations for the 2026 Merdeka Eve and National Day celebrations.
The closures will affect areas around Kajang Stadium, which will host the Selangor state-level Merdeka Eve celebration on 30 August, as well as multiple roads across Putrajaya ahead of the National Day celebration on 31 August.
Kajang Roads To Close From 26 August
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/6553ceb2ae46c85587269ef9c4c3b7f2f05620f65618dda8e642d8b1dd7d7e9b" />
Five main roads around Kajang will be closed in stages ahead of the Selangor state-level Merdeka Eve celebration.
Kajang police chief ACP Naazron Abdul Yusof said the closures are intended to ensure smooth traffic flow and public safety during the rehearsals and main event.
Jalan Mahkamah will be fully closed from 26 to 31 August.

Motorists heading into Putrajaya can also expect significant traffic restrictions in the days leading up to National Day.
Police said Persiaran Perdana between Jalan Kemerdekaan and Lebuh Bestari will be fully closed during the preliminary rehearsals from 26 to 28 August.
Further closures will take place on 28 and 29 August from 6am to noon, affecting:
<ul>
<li>Dataran Putra</li>
<li>Persiaran Perdana</li>
<li>Laman Perdana</li>
<li>Jalan P2a</li>
<li>Jalan P2t</li>
<li>Jalan P2s</li>
<li>Jalan P2w</li>
<li>Jalan P2y</li>
</ul>
The most extensive closures will begin at 5am on 30 August and remain in place until 6pm on 31 August.
Several major bridges will be affected, including Seri Wawasan Bridge, Seri Saujana Bridge, Seri Gemilang Bridge, Putra Bridge and Seri Ehsan Bridge.
Only Seri Bestari Bridge and Seri Setia Bridge will remain open to traffic during this period.
Other affected routes include Lebuh Bestari, Lebuh Setia, Lebuh Saujana, Lebuh Gemilang, Lebuh Wawasan, Lebuh Sentosa, Jalan Tun Hussein, Persiaran Barat and Persiaran Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah.
Around 80,000 Visitors Expected In Putrajaya
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/cf2737a2c0dd1ce307fd84f4afb921b1fcf9bca6003918d28d0c195ad672ea88" />
With around 80,000 visitors expected for the National Day celebrations, police will deploy 2,357 personnel in Putrajaya to manage traffic, security and crowd movement.
Authorities are urging visitors to plan their journeys in advance and use the free shuttle bus services provided by Putrajaya Corporation instead of driving directly to the celebration area.
The additional transport arrangements are intended to reduce congestion and minimise the number of private vehicles entering areas affected by road closures.
Drone Ban And Other Safety Reminders
<img src="https://r2.myc.my/f61c84c6b600786a31a1fab4534851acc51ea3771747b713ed386a9cad3aadbe" />
Members of the public are also reminded that Putrajaya is a no-fly zone, and drones must not be flown without the necessary approval.
Police warned that firm action may be taken against those who breach the restriction.
Residents and visitors in Putrajaya have also been advised not to be alarmed by cannon fire from the Malaysian Armed Forces during rehearsals and the National Day celebration.
Two cannon rounds are expected during the full rehearsal on 29 August, while another 14 rounds will be fired on National Day.
Plan Your Route Before Heading Out
With major celebrations taking place across both Kajang and Putrajaya, motorists are encouraged to check their routes before travelling and allow extra time for their journeys.
