UiTM friends gift Ayam Gepuk, not flowers, in graduation surprise
In a TikTok video shared by @emieeyyyy, he and his friends presented Ayam Gepuk meal boxes instead of traditional flower bouquets to their friends during convocation day.
To add a special touch, they placed the meal box in a flower-decorated tray and asked the recipient to open it for a surprise. The first graduate in the video gasped and covered his mouth in delight upon discovering the unexpected (and delicious) gift.
The congratulatory post was captioned humorously: 'If you want extra rice, you can ask at the restaurant,' followed by a laughing emoji.
Alongside the meal, the group also gifted large prints featuring collages of the graduates' faces, adding a dose of humour to the heartfelt moment.
Netizens were quick to applaud the creative and amusing gesture, lighting up the comments section with laughter and admiration.
'I hope there's extra sambal in there,' joked @amewrs.
User @haifsym said she had reposted the video so her friends could get the hint and recreate the moment for her graduation.
'This is the best gift, better than flowers,' said @rxjxsxfeaa. Agreeing with that, Emiey added that the graduates could dig into their meal straight after the long convocation ceremony — a welcome treat after hours of waiting.

Seedlings are good, according to the grapevine
Compiled by ZAKIAH KOYA and C. ARUNO HOMEOWNER Ismarina Ismail, 50, planted grapevines along the edge of her yard about two years ago, not realising that she would eventually get good offers for their seedlings, Utusan Malaysia reported. 'It all started when I bought grape cuttings from a successful grower in Machang, just to try it out,' said the woman from Kampung Dalam Rhu, Kelantan. 'After eight months, it began to bear fruit, which encouraged me to plant more. 'The grapes are mainly for my family to enjoy. I took the initiative to produce grape seedlings planted in polybags and discarded polystyrene containers. 'Now, the seedlings are in high demand and frequently ordered by the public,' she added. Ismarina said the grape vines bore fruit quickly because she used organic fertiliser made from goat manure from her livestock. > The kindness and warm nature of a security guard known as Pak Cik Saad moved an entire school to tears on the day of his retirement.

'Old is gold' and Rosyam Nor proves it right by winning the AMT2025 Hottest Viral Celebrity Award
You've got to hand it to Datuk Rosyam Nor. And please do not call the man a veteran despite being in the business for 40 years. Congratulations to one of Malaysia's most well-known actors and businessmen. He proved that at the age of 58, he is still the man to beat in the industry. Rosyam, who actually looked surprised when he was announced, but much to the delight of fans in the arena, was the recipient of the Hottest Viral Celebrity Award at the Hottest Melodi Awards 2025 ( Anugerah Selebriti Viral Terhangat di Anugerah Melodi Terhangat 2025 - AMT2025 ). While Rosyam said the victory was a major surprise for him, it was not for the fans, as they celebrated with thunderous cheers from the audience. The category at AMT2025 is a special category given to individuals who have created an extraordinary impact on social media, and this year, the organisers said, no one is more deserving than Rosyam. It all started with a dramatic scene in the sensational TV3 drama 'Keluarga Itu', which featured Rosyam Nor as a conflicted husband. However, the most viral moment was when he adorably smacked his own lips. The scene sparked an explosion of reactions on TikTok, from parodies to reaction videos, making it one of the most talked about clips of the year. Rosyam also touched on the extraordinary impact of the viral scene, which sparked a wave of conversation on social media, reaching 1.3 billion tweets. This achievement is proof of how a simple but heartfelt moment of acting can transcend the screen and become a digital phenomenon, further cementing his position as a legendary figure who remains relevant. The award is also further proof that Rosyam is not only a legend in the world of acting but also a figure who is always able to adapt to current trends and tastes. From TV screens to phone screens, his influence remains relevant, even now, among the digital generation, who are always looking for stories that touch emotions and spark conversations.
