Breathtaking museum-home inspires awe among netizens
HOME is more than just the brick and mortar. It is the embodiment of one's personality, from the choice of furniture, layout to the very colours on the wall.
While people are usually content with a home that looks like everyone else, with the exception of some minor deviations, some people go the extra mile to impress.
Take it from a charming Malay lady who wowed the internet community with her expansive landed home which is designed around the concept of a museum.
The video came to light after being posted by netizen @bckupacc99 who said it looked like a resort from the outside, but a museum from the inside.
Even more astounding was the fact that a good many of the decorations were hand-made by the lady herself.
Cantik rumahnya, estetik tetapi klasik..👏

She even had exhibits composed of an old iron, rotary phone, and a leg-powered sewing machine. Wood made up the floor, and also a good deal of the home, giving the place a warmth that few homes can compare to.
The video, although brief, was a feast for the eyes, as well as serving as an inspiration for others looking to redesign their homes.
On another note, homes revolving around themes of antiquity actually fetch a good price on the market despite their apparent lack of touch with the times.
Take for example, the heritage homes in George Town, Penang, which commands a market rate of about RM1.6 mil.
A pair of adjoining 3-story heritage shophouses on Macalister Lane is further listed for a whopping RM7.3 mil.
Such homes have since been turned into cafes, hotels and even mini-museums which serve as tourist attractions.
No one could tell the value of this very unique museum-home, but from the looks of it, it is bound to fetch a good price on the property market. —June 30, 2025

Viral lady considers Nasi Kangkang to win back cheating husband
STORIES of broken hearts and betrayal are older than the oldest soap opera. Regardless, it is a timeless problem that requires deliberation since it is oftentimes a complex one. But could people take the easy way out? Then again, is there ever an easy way out to such a problem? Tell that to a heartbroken lady who recently complained on the Internet that her husband has been 'eating outside' of the house. According to her, her husband had a new office mate and it appears their relationship had blossomed into something more than colleagues. The solution? She wanted to make Nasi Kangkang for her husband to win him back again. For those not in the know, Nasi Kangkang is made when a lady squats on a rice pot. Heat from the pot makes her sweat, which drips into the rice. Among the Malay community, this was the equivalent to black magic, which makes the husband subservient to the wife. Listening to her plight, the Internet community decided to provide their 'professional' advice to aid her in her problem. We can already expect where this is going. According to netizen @musang1200, it was enough that she read the seventh word of surah Yusof. Another netizen said she should have just asked for a divorce. 'There is no need to get back the people who rejected us,' said @NaimFathullah who was clearly uninterested in such faithless males. 'The women of the current age are frightening. All of them are into black magic,' added @anabismatli. Also, @Ferdz7878 pointed out that Nasi Kangkang was not the solution to the problem. Apparently, the man becomes stupid after consuming it, and it would not be a real family environment. 'Instead of Nasi Kangkang, it is better to open your legs while looking pretty in front of your husband. He will return to you' said a 'marriage expert,' although the statement was obviously satire. Perhaps the winning comment went to @Tesstisss who said the Nasi Kangkang was most effective when she was having her period. Either that or boiling her underwear in the chicken soup for his consumption. Apparently the internet is never deficient in creativity. @blokchainfarm further added that she could have just given him rice laced with poison. Supposedly revenge is best served cold. But why go to such length to win back a cheating man when she could just turn her black magic on a rich Datuk? And that was exactly what @HIdnal suggested, adding that she could just be content being the second or third wife. With the many advise given by our dear netizens, we suppose the troubled lady would have some idea on how to get even with her cheating husband. Meanwhile, one can only wonder how a plate of Nasi Kangkang would taste like. —June 29, 2025 Main image: @detikseram (X)

Divided voices of Seribu Tahun reflect Malaysia's growing media maturity
In a local TV landscape often filled with predictable plots and familiar tropes, Seribu Tahun has quietly emerged as a bold outlier. The Malay-language drama, which has sparked conversations across social media, stepped into rarely explored territory, weaving LGBT themes into its storyline while firmly grounded in Malay-Muslim cultural contexts. Unlike shows designed to provoke controversy for attention, Seribu Tahun took a different path: it doesn't push agendas, it invites dialogue. Through emotional storytelling and layered characters, it challenges viewers to reflect, not react — offering a rare lens into conversations often left unheard in mainstream Malaysian media. Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) Faculty of Film, Theatre and Animation lecturer, Ts Mastura Muhammad viewed this public discourse as a sign of progress rather than division. 'The polarised response to Seribu Tahun reveals the evolving state of public discourse in Malaysia. These reactions reflect a society negotiating its values, caught between maintaining traditional norms and grappling with modern complexities. 'Rather than viewing this division as a weakness, it signals the maturity of a media-literate public willing to critically engage with content,' she told Sinar Daily. The series stands out precisely because it refuses to offer simple answers or push a singular perspective. Instead, Seribu Tahun contextualises the struggles of its characters with nuance and care. This approach transforms mainstream media into a dynamic arena for national conversation, provided stories like these are handled with depth and ethical clarity. Mastura emphasised that the drama's layered storytelling offers multiple perspectives rather than promoting a specific ideology or identity. In Malaysia, television drama is often seen as light entertainment, an escape from daily life. But Seribu Tahun challenges this perception. Mastura pointed out that drama can and should serve as a platform for meaningful dialogue. The Seribu Tahun debates reflect a growing public willingness to think critically, engage deeply and confront complexity. Photo: Facebook 'Audience reactions, especially those expressed via platforms like TikTok, have offered thoughtful interpretations of the show's themes, drawing from both social and religious frameworks. These kinds of responses contribute to a richer and more constructive media environment than the usual reception given to formulaic romantic dramas. 'In contrast to other local productions that have mishandled sensitive themes, such as the casual acknowledgment of biological fathers in cases of children born out of wedlock, a portrayal that contradicts Islamic teachings, Seribu Tahun demonstrates a more ethically grounded narrative approach. 'Controversial issues in the series are carefully contextualised or resolved, reflecting a sincere effort to balance creative freedom with cultural and religious considerations,' she added. Malaysia's society is often labelled as conservative, but this simplification overlooks the rich diversity of moral and ideological standpoints held across its population. For filmmakers navigating this landscape, ethical storytelling becomes a tightrope walk. 'Directors and scriptwriters must navigate this complex terrain, shaped by regulation, religious sensitivities and public expectations. Ethical representation in such a setting demands commitment to narrative integrity without falling into sensationalism. 'When addressing taboo topics like LGBT identities, religion, or intersexuality (khunsa), it is crucial for filmmakers to craft portrayals that are contextually relevant, culturally respectful and ethically responsible,' she mentioned. The reach of television drama means these stories carry the power to amplify voices too often sidelined. More than just showing these identities or issues, such narratives invite society to listen and reflect rather than react in knee-jerk fashion. Through these stories, Mastura said that we can come closer to understanding Malaysia's heterogeneous social fabric, rather than perpetuating the illusion of cultural uniformity.
