Aliff, 38, who also featured in the video, mentioned his plan to offer RM50,000 to his son's future partner, along with a new house and car.
"I'll leave it to Ammar, but once he finds 'Miss Right', this will be my gift to her," he remarked.
Aliff and his wife, Datin Seri Nur Shahida, married in 2007 and have six children: Ammar, Qadejah El Zahra, Ibraheem Adham, Yusoff Al Qardawi, Raudah Arshiyah, and Luqman Al-Hakim.

Elderly couple travels to Perak for non-existent cable car, duped by AI-generated video
AN elderly couple from Kuala Lumpur were left heartbroken after making a trip to Kuak Hulu, Perak, only to discover that a cable car attraction they saw online didn't actually exist. The video that led them there was entirely generated using artificial intelligence (AI). ALSO READ: Customer calls out restaurant for displaying AI generated images on food delivery app The incident came to light after a Threads user, @dyaaaaaaa._, shared her encounter with the couple, who had checked into a hotel in Kuak Hulu and inquired about the cable car. 'There was this elderly couple who came to check in at the hotel, and they asked me, 'Have you gone on the cable car ride at Kuak Hulu?' I thought they were joking, so I replied, 'Didn't have time to go.' 'Then they told me they had come all the way from KL just to ride that cable car. I was stunned,' she wrote. When she broke the news that no such attraction existed, the couple were in disbelief. 'I asked them, 'Are you serious?' and they said, 'Yes, really.' I felt so bad. I explained to them that the video they saw was AI-generated and fake. 'But the aunty said, 'No way, why would people lie like that? 'There was even a reporter in the video!' Despite her repeated explanations, the couple struggled to accept the truth. 'Then the uncle turned to his wife and asked, 'So what now?' I asked them, 'Didn't you ask your children before coming here?' And he said, 'We were embarrassed to ask.' 'The aunty then said, 'But you should have commented on the video to say it's not true.' 'She said they saw the video on Facebook, but I saw it on TikTok. I don't even have a Facebook account,' her post read. The situation worsened when the woman threatened to sue the 'journalist' featured in the AI-created footage, believing it was an actual news segment. 'She said she wants to sue the 'reporter' in the video. I told her, 'Aunty, the person in the video isn't real. It was all edited.' And she said, 'How could they do this to people?' The Threads user concluded her post with a reminder to be vigilant and to check in on older family members who might be vulnerable to online misinformation. 'So please, if your parents love to travel, make sure to ask them where they're going. Otherwise, something like this could happen — they came all the way from KL to Perak for nothing.' The AI-generated video, which is still circulating on platforms like TikTok and Facebook, uses convincing visuals and voiceovers mimicking news reports — making it difficult for some to distinguish fact from fiction.

(Video) Stray Kids' Bang Chan Goes Viral For Kind Gesture Towards Disabled Fans
K-pop stars have gone above and beyond to show their love for their fans. Recently, Stray Kids' (스트레이 키즈) leader, Bang Chan (방찬), went viral for how he treated disabled fans at the group's concert in North America. Over the weekend, the group performed in Toronto, Canada, as part of their ongoing 'dominATE' world tour. During the performance, Bang Chan went into the crowd to greet fans in the audience. However, the idol received praise after clips showed how he prioritised disabled fans. In one TikTok video, the idol stopped to interact with a fan in a wheelchair, chatting with her and her group of friends. The 27-year-old then moved towards another section of the venue to greet other fans who were also in wheelchairs. It's believed that Bang Chan purposely approached the venue's accessibility zone to greet fans in the area. The clip also showed him taking more time to speak with fans with limited movement. The TikTok video has since gone viral and was reshared on other social media platforms. Bang Chan received praise for his actions and attitude towards his fans. In the comments, fans commended the Stray Kids leader for his thoughtfulness and respectful behaviour. Others also called the interactions a showcase of Bang Chan's genuine love for his fans. At the same time, some netizens also thanked fans for not mobbing the idol when he walked around the venue. Interestingly, this news comes after the rapper went viral for showing concern to fans during a chaotic concert in Washington. For context, several fans at Stray Kids' recent show in Washington suffered from heat exhaustion caused by the heatwave and dehydration. Taking note of this issue, Bang Chan reportedly paid for drinking water to be distributed to fans in the concert hall to ensure their health and safety. Kudos to Bang Chan for showing love and respect to all his fans. Stray Kids will continue their world tour later this month with the European leg, so maybe we'll see more heartwarming moments. In the meantime, check out the clip of Bang Chan below: Source: Koreaboo, TikTok, Twitter What's your Reaction? +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0

#SHOWBIZ: Cik B: 'Not all Gen Z lazy, I earn over RM500k a month'
KUALA LUMPUR: The daughter of famous entrepreneur Datuk Seri Vida, Cik B, recently revealed her monthly income exceeds RM500,000, challenging the generalisation that Gen Z are not known for being hardworking. The 20-year-old, whose real name is Nur Edlynn Zamileen Muhammad Amin, shared this information in a TikTok post. While she did not disclose the exact amount, the influencer, who also dabbles in singing, said: "My monthly income is over RM500,000. But I can't tell you the actual amount." In a message to young people aspiring to succeed, she advised: "We need to constantly push ourselves to work hard even if we don't like it. We also need to identify our interests. Once we know what we are interested in, we will be more enthusiastic about committing ourselves to it." When asked to comment further about Gen Z, she offered: "Maybe some are lazy because of their lifestyle. Perhaps they are comfortable with their existing life. And some might have some mental health issues, but of course, you can never use that as an excuse all the time from wanting to improve yourselves."
