From ‘Kopi Peng' to ‘Tuah': Malaysians flood Zoo Melaka contest to name panther cub, submission form closes early
MELAKA, July 4 — A Zoo Melaka contest that invited the public to name a black panther cub has seemingly closed ahead of schedule, after drawing thousands of submissions. The competition, which was scheduled to run from July 1 to July 25, aimed to name a male cub born at the zoo on February 24, 2025. At the time of writing, the submission form says that it is 'no longer accepting responses.' New Straits Times (NST) today reported that the zoo had received over 20,000 submissions. With the submission form no longer active, netizens have taken to the zoo's Instagram and Facebook pages to post their name suggestions in the comments. Among them were 'Kopi Peng (Iced Coffee)', 'Si Dakwat (Ink)' and 'Tuah' — a nod to the popular Melaka folklore character Hang Tuah. The cub is part of ongoing efforts to raise awareness about local wildlife conservation and the captive breeding of the endangered Malayan panther. According to the NST report, Zoo Melaka director Zahidah Izzati Zeid said the naming contest was designed to engage the public and raise awareness of the zoo's conservation work. 'By giving the public the opportunity to name the Malayan panther cub, we hope to garner public interest and create awareness on the success of our captive breeding initiatives of local wild Malaysian species,' she was quoted as saying.

Finance ministry eases SST compliance with transitional measures
The finance ministry announced last month that a 5% to 10% tax rate would be applied to non-essential goods, while the service tax would be extended to cover rentals, leasing, construction, financial services, private healthcare, and education. PETALING JAYA : The finance ministry has announced transitional measures to ease industry compliance with the expanded scope of the sales and service tax (SST), including allowing the manual submission of tax returns for newly taxable services. The ministry said the measures were introduced following feedback from industry players on challenges in meeting operational requirements under the revised tax framework. One of the key measures is a temporary allowance for the manual submission of tax returns for newly taxable services, covering the period from July 1 to Sept 30, to allow service providers more time to upgrade their systems. 'However, service tax must still be charged and collected during this period,' the ministry said in a statement. It said that the customs department had also opened early voluntary registration for manufacturers who are subject to the sales tax starting this month. 'They will also be eligible to apply for exemptions on raw materials used in the production of taxable goods,' it added. Companies that have received sales tax exemptions through the customs exemption committee or the Malaysian Investment Development Authority before July 1 will continue to enjoy those exemptions, subject to existing terms and conditions. However, companies that begin producing taxable finished goods after July 1 and surpass the threshold will be required to register as manufacturers and may apply for exemptions via the MySST portal. The ministry said the measures were aimed at facilitating business operations and supporting compliance with the expanded SST. The ministry announced last month that a 5% to 10% tax rate would be applied to non-essential goods, while the service tax would be extended to cover rentals, leasing, construction, financial services, private healthcare, and education. However, it said imported apples and oranges would be exempted from the tax, citing affordability issues for lower-income groups such as the B40. Beauty services like manicures, pedicures, facials, and hairdressing were also excluded following public feedback.

End of tax-free loophole for low-value goods disrupts air shipments to US from China
SHANGHAI/SEOUL: Air cargo shipment volume from Asia has declined by double digits since the US cancelled a tax-free exemption for low-value packages from China early in May, trade groups and analysts said. Air cargo demand from Asia to North America declined 10.7 per cent in May versus the same month a year earlier, showed data from the International Air Transport Association (IATA), illustrating "the dampening effect of shifting US trade policies," IATA Director General Willie Walsh said in a report published on Monday. Shipments valued under US$800 – often sent by air to US customers of low-cost e-commerce platforms such as Shein and PDD's Temu – fell under the so-called de minimis, or too-small-to-matter, tax exemption. Since May 2, however, such shipments sent from China and Hong Kong have been taxed at a rate initially as high as 145 per cent before settling to as low as 30 per cent after a mid-May trade détente between the US and China. The pair continue to negotiate on trade, with the US relaxing export restrictions on software, ethane and aerospace to China this week, ahead of July 9 when the US plans to re-impose a range of steep tariffs targeting multiple countries. The volume of low-value e-commerce shipments from China to the United States in May saw a particularly steep decline, industry experts said. Such shipments fell 43 per cent in May from the previous month, showed estimates from air cargo consultancy Aevean, but rose to other main export markets including Europe and South-East Asia. It is not clear whether such dramatic declines will continue, said Aevean Managing Director Marco Bloemen, given businesses had anticipated the de minimis halt and because the tariff rate was lowered mid-month. "Will those e-commerce players bounce back to the US now they're paying 30 per cent duties instead of zero duties?" Bloemen said. Companies turning to other markets due to US trade policy uncertainty is also likely weighing on shipment volume, he said. "That's a trend that we're expecting to continue – there's more Europe-destined e-commerce expected in the month of June, also to markets like Latin America." Air cargo consultancy Rotate said e-commerce platforms were focusing on other markets to replace lost US demand, with significant export growth to the European Union and Asia-Pacific region. Shein and PDD did not immediately respond to Reuters' requests for comment. Cargo cut-backs Low-value e-commerce out of Asia has been taking an increasing proportion of global air freight and boosting airlines' cargo businesses. Last year such shipments – at 1.2 million metric tons – made up 55 per cent of goods shipped from China to the US by air compared to just five per cent in 2018, Aevean data showed. As Asia-to-US demand fell in May, airlines pulled freighter aircraft off trans-Pacific routes and placed them elsewhere, industry experts said. Some of that demand has now returned as companies take advantage of tariff pauses between the US and a number of countries, but flight frequencies are reduced, they said. "Some of the larger players that were chartering three flights a week have cut back to two," said e-commerce consultancy Cirrus Global Advisors. Direct freighter capacity between China and the US in June was 11 per cent lower compared to March, wiping out growth in capacity over the past year on those lanes, Rotate data showed. Asia-focused freight forwarder Dimerco Express estimated its e-commerce bookings were down 50 per cent in May and June. As a result, scheduled freighter flights continue to be cancelled, it said in a report. The de minimis rule, which dates to 1938, had been a target of criticism from American lawmakers as a loophole that lets Chinese products skirt US tariffs and allows illegal drugs and precursors to make opioid fentanyl to enter the US unscreened.
