  • Eyewitness Needed – Motorcyclist Died In Early Morning Accident, Helmet With Camera Missing

    Eyewitness Needed – Motorcyclist Died In Early Morning Accident, Helmet With Camera Missing

    Hi, would like to plead for witnesses or with car cameras footage of a fatal accident involving my late friend’s, bike FBG9912Z along KJE (Towards BKE) before sungei tengah/brickland rd exit (Lamp post #272) on the 8th December 2016 in between 4.15am to 4.52am.

    fatal-accident-at-kje-2

    It was believed that Police received a call from member of public informing of the accident at 4.52am and upon police arrival, his body was found on the ground. His helmet was nowhere to be found and I suspected that someone might have removed the Caberg duke flip up helmet (black) since it’s attached with a camera to run away with the evidence as there are only minor scratches found on the face. Police are still investigating the case and so far it’s being classified as a self skidded which my friends and myself refused to accept as he is a very safe rider and always cautious when riding his bike. He was on the way home from work and just few turns away from his destination.

    He left behind a wife and a 7 month’s old son. I will be grateful if any eyewitness who may have pass by during that time to step out to assist with investigation.

    I’ve attached a picture and the cut off area is where the body is found.

    For the culprit who stole his helmet, do believe in karma and I hope you will be caught and justice be served!!!

    Thanks guys!

  • 2 Remaja Korban Cuti Sekolah, Perah Keringat Untuk Siapkan 10,000 Makanan Percuma

    2 Remaja Korban Cuti Sekolah, Perah Keringat Untuk Siapkan 10,000 Makanan Percuma

    Sebanyak 10,000 bungkusan makanan halal akan diagihkan secara percuma untuk orang ramai tanpa mengira bangsa atau agama, di Masjid Angullia, Ahad ini (11 Dis).

    Anjuran ‘Free Food For All’ (FFFA) atau Makanan Percuma Untuk Semua, ia bertujuan menggalak masyarakat memupuk sifat ihsan dan saling bantu-membantu, tidak kira latar belakang.

    Sekurang-kurangnya 120 sukarelawan akan menggembleng tenaga untuk membantu dalam persiapan dan pengagihan makanan itu.

    Antara sukarelawan bagi projek tersebut termasuklah sepasang remaja bernama Faza Nadhirah dan Hannah Sofeah.

    HABISKAN CUTI SEKOLAH DENGAN PENUH MAKNA

    Sedang ramai anak muda bersuka ria sewaktu cuti sekolah, pasangan adik-beradik Faza dan Hannah pula berhempas pulas menyediakan 10,000 bungkusan makanan bagi tujuan yang murni.

    Apabila diberitahu oleh ibu mereka tentang inisiatif yang dianjurkan ‘Free Food For All’, Faza Nadhirah dan adiknya, Hannah Sofeah, menyuarakan minat untuk terlibat sama.

    Kerja-kerja sukarela sebegini sebenarnya tidak asing lagi buat Hannah Sofeah.

    Sejak kecil lagi, dia dan kakaknya giat membantu ibu mereka menyampaikan cek kepada anak-anak penagih, di bawah Dana Pendidikan Harun Ghani (HGEF).

    Pada awalnya, mereka menjadi sukarelawan dengan membahagi-bahagikan borang penyertaan dan pena. Kemudian setelah meningkat dewasa, mereka menguruskan hal mentadbir dan logistik seperti menyaring borang-borang penyertaan dan menyemak butiran tertulis pada cek. Namun, kerja sukarela kali ini nyata berbeza.

    Mereka bakal berhabis keringat dengan mengerahkan tulang empat kerat, demi menghulurkan bungkusan makanan kepada orang ramai daripada pelbagai latar belakang, selaku sukarelawan FFFA.

    “Sebelum ini, saya selalu membuat kerja kertas atau menyampaikan wang kepada keluarga-keluarga miskin. Tetapi kali ini, saya dapat memasak, membungkus makanan dan memberikan makanan itu,” kongsi Hannah Sofeah yang berusia 14 tahun.

    “Projek ini mengajar saya untuk menjadi lebih bersyukur dengan apa yang saya ada,” tambahnya lagi.

    KURANG DAYA PENDENGARAN, TAPI KAYA SEMANGAT MEMBANTU

    Bagi kakaknya, Faza Nadhirah pula, pengalaman yang diraih daripada melakukan kerja-kerja kemasyarakatan anjuran kolejnya di New Zealand membawa kesedaran tentang perihal semangat kesukarelawanan di sini.

    Mentelah lagi, keadaan beliau yang kurang daya pendengaran sejak usia dua tahun, mendorongnya untuk membawa keceriaan kepada golongan memerlukan.

    “Mungkin pada masa depan saya ingin menolong kanak-kanak kurang upaya kerana saya sendiri kurang daya pendengaran,” kata Faza Nadhirah, yang berusia 17 tahun.

    Kedua-dua adik-beradik ini akan turun padang menyingsing lengan bagi menyediakan 10,000 bungkusan Nasi Beriyani di bawah inisiatif ‘Free Food For All’ (FFFA).

    Orang ramai dijemput untuk menikmati juadah itu bersama-sama di Masjid Angullia pada Ahad ini.

  • Peniaga East Village Promosi Kedai Dan Barang Jualan Satu Sama Lain

    Peniaga East Village Promosi Kedai Dan Barang Jualan Satu Sama Lain

    Apakah yang boleh dilakukan para peniaga runcit di pusat beli-belah, untuk terus bertahan dalam sekitaran ekonomi yang mencabar sekarang ini?

    Bagi sekitar 70 peratus peruncit di pusat beli-belah East Village, mereka saling mempromosikan kedai dan barang jualan antara satu sama lain.

    BERITAMediacorp mendapati bahawa pelbagai lagi strategi gotong-royong dilaksanakan para peruncit di East Village demi terus merancakkan perniagaan mereka.

    Sebanyak 100 kedai ditempatkan di pusat beli-belah yang terletak di Simpang Bedok itu, dan sekitar 80 peratus dimiliki peniaga Melayu/Islam.

    Malah, ia semakin dikenali sebagai pusat sehenti bagi karyawan wanita Muslim.

    SEMANGAT KAMPUNG KIAN RANCAK

    Tinjauan BERITAMediacorp menunjukkan, semangat kampung di salah satu hab perniagaan itu semakin rancak. Pihak kami diberitahu, langkah para peruncit di situ mempromosikan perniagaan satu sama lain, semakin membuahkan hasil ekonomi.

    Pemilik Balqis the Bistro, Junainah Jumari, berkata: “Kami adakan Jualan Kilat, kolaborasi oleh 70 peratus peniaga-peniaga di sini sepanjang bulan Disember. Itu untuk menyegarkan dan untuk menarik lebih ramai orang datang ke sini, sebab kebelakangan ini agak sunyi sekali di sini.”

    Apabila tiga jenama makanan dan minuman (F&B) besar di East Village gulung tikar, ia ternyata memberi peluang kepada peniaga-peniaga baru berjinak-jinak dengan perniagaan runcit.

    Antara muka baru adalah peniaga generasi kedua, Muhammad Abdul Kadir, yang gigih memikirkan strategi gotong-royong untuk saling memakmurkan perniagaan di situ.

    Pemilik bersama Et Taher itu berkata: “Kalau pelanggan beli barang dengan saya, belanja berapa jumlah, mereka akan dapat baucar dari Karva. Kalau mereka belanja dengan saya, boleh dapat potongan 10 peratus di Balqis. Jadi kita sama-sama maju.”

    Setiap peniaga di East Village mempunyai pelanggan tetap masing-masing menerusi promosi di lelaman sosial.

    Cik Junainah berkata: “Dalam keadaan ekonomi yang lembab ini, di Balqis sendiri saya lebih tumpukan pada khidmat penghantaran dan juga kami sedang berusaha untuk menjual produk beku. Kunafa beku.”

    Encik Muhammad pula berkata: “Sewaktu jualan murah itu juga, ramai yang cakap, oh mereka kali pertama. Tidak tahu di dalam sini ada ramai peniaga Melayu.”

    PUSAT SEHENTI BAGI KARYAWAN WANITA

    Dengan bertambahnya jumlah berbagai butik fesyen Muslimah, tudung eksklusif, spa, salon rambut, minyak wangi, kedai buku pendidikan awal kanak-kanak dan sebagainya, East Village kini menempah nama sebagai pusat sehenti bagi karyawan wanita.

    Sambil berbelanja, mereka boleh memanjakan diri di spa dan menjamu selera dengan pelbagai kafe dan restoran di bawah satu bumbung.

  • Two World Silat Golds For Singapore

    Two World Silat Golds For Singapore

    Singapore won two gold medals on the final day of the World Pencak Silat Championships in Bali, today (Thursday).

    Sheik Farhan outclassed Vietnam’s Mach Quoc Hung 5-0 in the men’s Class J (90-95kg) final, while Shakir Juanda recovered from an early setback to win the Class I (85-90kg) final.

    Both Singaporeans are now two-time world champions of their respective weight classes. Farhan, who turns 20 next Friday, had triumphed in Phuket almost two years ago, while 28-year-old Shakir won the gold medal in Chiang Rai in 2012.

    This is the first time since 2004 – when the world championship was hosted in Singapore – that the Republic’s silat exponents have delivered more than one gold medal at the global meet, which features 41 countries.

    A jubliant Singapore Silat Federation chief executive officer Sheik Alau’ddin told The New Paper over the phone: “Farhan had no problems with his match. Shakir lost the first and second rounds – he got tossed to the mat when he attempted his first kick – but had a revival in the third round and scored enough to win the match overall.

    “Overall I’m very happy because of the performance of athletes and the team behind them… Everyone has been excellent.”

    With their wins, Shakir and Farhan — who is Sheik’s son — have matched the the silat great for world titles which he won in 1990 and 1994.

    Thoughts will now turn to seeing if they can match or even surpass Sheik’s four SEA Games golds (won in 1991, 1993, 1995 and 1999).

  • Young Lions Get Serious For SEA Games

    Young Lions Get Serious For SEA Games

    There is a major effort underway as Singapore targets glory at next year’s South-east Asia (SEA) Games football competition.

    Speaking to The New Paper yesterday, national youth teams head coach Richard Tardy outlined his plans for the Young Lions.

    For starters, the Garena Young Lions, to be coached by former Singapore international V Selvaraj, will kick off the upcoming S.League season with 30 players all born in the year 1995 or later as the SEA Games football competition next August will be an under-22 tournament.

    The team’s senior players like Khairul Amri, Firdaus Kasman, Christopher van Huizen and Fareez Farhan will all be free to sign for other clubs.

    “Last year we took Amri and Firdaus to help add some experience to the team, and we didn’t know at the start of last season whether the SEA Games will be an under-22 or under-23 competition,” said Tardy, who will be in charge of the team at the SEA Games.

    “It would have been difficult to start with an entirely young team. Still, we had a team with an average age of 21.5 years, which is the youngest in the club’s history.

    “It gave the opportunity for under-18 players like Rusyaidi Salime, Joshua Pereira and Hami Syahin to progress.

    “But now that we are so near to the SEA Games, it makes no sense to take overaged players.

    “Honestly, it will be very difficult to compete in the S.League, we know. Those with one-year experience can help us.

    “We must think about the future of Singapore football and the future is coming from the youth.

    “I’m sure that in two or three years, we will find some senior national players from this team.”

    The 66-year-old Frenchman urged support from all stakeholders as he revealed the comprehensive training schedule in store for the Young Lions, who will sit out of local cup competitions.

    He said: “Our season this year ended on Oct 15 but we trained until Nov 30 because I didn’t want them to go a long time without training.

    “They now have a three-week break before they come back in the last week of December to get ready for the new season.

    “Next month, we will have a training camp in Phuket with good facilities and a good field to get back to a good level physically before the season starts.

    “In March, we will play in a Dubai tournament against strong teams from Saudi Arabia, Jordan, China and Thailand.

    “I don’t want easy games even though I know they are good for the spirit.

    “Our best preparation will come in July when we play a minimum of three games in the AFC Under-23 Championship qualifiers against one or two strong teams as we are in the third pot.

    “Only by doing well against strong opponents can we say we have improved.”

    Ever since the Football Association of Singapore (FAS) appointed him in July 2015, Tardy has been candid in his assessment of youth footballers, pointing out their technical and physical weakness.

    In September, he told TNP that if the SEA Games were held then, the Young Lions would not even qualify for the semi-finals.

    However, Tardy has seen progress, even though he admits the boys are still behind the likes of Thailand and Vietnam in terms of technique.

    He said: “The distance between dreams and reality is action. We can dream of doing well but as a coach, I must be a realist and say we have to work very hard to do well at the SEA Games.

    “We drew with Vietnam in the Nations Cup and lost 1-0 to China and Iran. This means we are not far off.

    “Technically, I don’t think our level is enough, and we have problems heading, shooting and crossing, which we will work on specifically for 60 to 80 minutes every week.

    “But the base is physical and we have no big problems there in terms of injuries and cramps like we had before. Tactically, we must improve more such that individuals can adapt to whatever system we have to play during a game.

    “It is not my job to set a medal target but even as we train to develop national players for the future, we will also start to focus more on results next year.

    “I want the players to show me the fight in them, that they feel responsible for the SEA Games when they wear the national team jersey and their will to fight even the idea of losing.”
