Actress-singer Fazura prefers to leave legals issues to lawyers; prefers to concentrate on new single composed by Indonesian ace Ade Govinda
KUALA LUMPUR: Nearly two months have passed since allegations emerged that the company owned by popular actress and entrepreneur Nur Fazura Sharifuddin failed to settle a RM4.65 million debt owed to a headscarf manufacturing factory.
Despite being repeatedly pressed by the claimant as well as by netizens on social media to address the issue, the celebrity has remained silent, going about her daily life, including promoting her headscarves on social media.
And on Saturday, she notched up a big step in her career after launching the music video of her latest single 'Luar Biasa' which is composed by ace Indonesian producer Ade Govinda.
Speaking to reporters at a press conference after launching the music video Fazura, 41, said the lawsuit against her company is a confidential matter and has been handed over to her lawyers for further action.
Fazura, who is also a singer and television host, said she preferred not to comment further as it involves two separate entities.
"Honestly, there's nothing I can explain because we have to understand that I, Fazura, and the company are two different entities.
"I can't comment on company matters as that is beyond my scope as an individual. The company is the company, and Fazura is me personally, that's the distinction.
"So really, I can't say much about the company or whatever is going on. I've left all my company-related matters to my lawyers to take action," she said.
Fazura made these remarks when asked by reporters to comment on the RM4.65 million lawsuit filed by a headscarf supplier against her company Pink Fate Sdn Bhd.
Admitting that she is affected by the controversy, the 'Pisau Cukur' star actress said such issues are among the challenges any entrepreneur must face.
"What haven't I gone through in the past eight months? Of course, I've been affected. I'm not someone without feelings but as an entrepreneur, I understand this is normal. I don't think it's necessary to explain, because outsiders may not understand and could twist the facts," she said.
"I know the business I'm running isn't a small one and I'm confident all entrepreneurs out there will understand the challenges that come with being in the business world," she added.
According to media reports early last month, headscarf manufacturer Obor Holding Sdn Bhd is taking legal action against Pink Fate for allegedly owing the company RM4.65 million. Obor Holding claimed that Pink Fate had only paid RM2.68 million out of the total RM7.3 million value of headscarves supplied since June 2022. - Bernama

The inaugural Borneo Flora Festival (BFF) 2025 is more than just a vibrant showcase of tropical blooms and landscape artistry. Minister in the Prime Ministers Department (Federal Territories) Datuk Seri Dr Zaliha Mustafa in her keynote speech at the official launching of the Borneo Flora Festival 2025 (BFF) today, emphasized the BFF was designed not merely to add to Labuans event calendar, but to serve as a catalyst for diversification and socioeconomic revitalisation. LABUAN, July 26 (Bernama) -- The Borneo Flora Festival (BFF) has not only attracted residents of the Pearl of Borneo, but also visitors from outside the island who have come to celebrate the festival, which began today. A visitor from Brunei Darussalam, Siti Norlila Rahim, 38, did not want to miss the opportunity to see the various species of flowers on display at the International Sea Sports Complex. The mother of three said her family had arrived on the island by ferry from Brunei to Labuan yesterday to visit relatives living here. 'My mum told me there's a festival here (in Labuan), so I thought, why not come… and most importantly, there are also booths from Brunei involved in the festival,' she told Bernama. Jinus Yoson, 51, from Tambunan, meanwhile, arrived in Labuan two days ago and came to the BFF as he did not want to miss the chance to witness the flower festival being held for the first time. He said the arrangement and decorations at the BFF were very attractive, with colourful floral displays and various activities for visitors to take part in. 'If even the people of Labuan are coming, then those of us who don't live here surely won't miss the chance to come,' he said, adding that he was also visiting his child who worked on the island. Nur Hayanti Asri, 18, from Kuala Penyu, said she was not only thrilled and excited as it was her first time attending such a festival, but also because she wanted to capture memorable photos with the flowers displayed at the BFF. 'As a young person, the first thing I thought of when deciding to come to the BFF was to take pictures to use as backgrounds and post them on Instagram,' she said, adding that she learnt about the festival through social media promotions.
