Sabahans urged to use MYJalan app for road damage complaints
'There are too few people in Sabah who use the MYJalan application. I hope they would access it to express their dissatisfaction with road conditions,' he said. Complaints filed through MYJalan will be directed to the responsible parties, whether for tourist areas, agricultural roads, or urban routes.
Developed in 2023, MYJalan follows a no wrong door policy, forwarding grievances to the appropriate agencies. Ahmad also stressed that concession companies maintaining federal roads must repair potholes within 24 hours as per their agreements.
'The Works Ministry will not compromise on road safety. Concessionaires must ensure roads remain safe and smooth,' he added. - Bernama

Free haircuts, oil change services draw crowds at 'Bakti Komuniti Madani' event
MUAR: Free haircuts and oil change services were among the main crowd-pullers at the Bakti Komuniti Madani programme here, held ahead of the 2025 National Month and Fly the Jalur Gemilang Campaign launch tomorrow. Ulo Barber owner Mohd Hilmi Hassan, 47, from Parit Jawa said he and his four workers were very busy as many people came for haircuts since the service started at 10am. "By 12.15pm, we had already served over 60 people of different ages. "We thought we would wrap up at noon, but had to extend the time because many were still waiting," he told Bernama at the event held at Taman Tun Sulaiman Ninam Shah. Kampung Simpang Baba village chief Hussin Limat, 65, said the long wait was worth it, as the free haircut saved money and brought people together. "I waited almost an hour because of the queue, but I think this is a very good programme. "Even though it seems simple, it gives real benefits to the community," he said. Mohd Muizzudin Mohd Nordin, 15, a student at SMK Agama Maahad Muar, said he arrived as early as 8am after learning about the free haircut service through a WhatsApp group. "This free service really helps, especially for students like me. "At a regular barber shop, it would cost around RM10 to RM20, so I didn't want to miss the chance. "It's a great way to save and be presentable in time for National Month," he said. Meanwhile, GiatMARA Bakri manager Affandi Abdul Rahim said all 60 bottles of engine oil allocated for the free oil change service were used up within two hours. He said the service was carried out by eight GiatMARA trainees and attracted visitors of various races from across Muar. In addition to a gotong-royong and kenduri rakyat, the Bakti Komuniti Madani programme, launched by Deputy Communications Minister Teo Nie Ching, also featured an e-sports tournament, asam pedas cooking competition, traditional games and lucky draws. – Bernama

Speaking at the GAIKINDO Indonesia International Auto Show, Nangoi acknowledged that domestic car sales continue to face challenges. However, he remains optimistic that the decline will not be as severe as last year. "Domestic sales are down. But I still hope to reach 800,000 units," he said. According to GAIKINDO data, total wholesale car distribution, defined as new vehicles shipped from factories to dealers, reached 374,740 units in the first half of this year. Despite the slowdown in local demand, Nangoi emphasised that the automotive industry remains resilient, with export growth playing an increasingly important role in supporting the sector through the rest of the year. He added that continued policy support, government stimulus, and efforts to access new markets are expected to boost the competitiveness of vehicles manufactured in Indonesia. "In business, ups and downs are inevitable. But we believe that this industry has the strength to overcome difficult times and will emerge stronger," Nangoi noted. - Bernama-Xinhua
