THE #GrowWithCAP2021 campaign on the first day of 2021 by Consumers Association of Penang (CAP) drew support from people as far as Germany and India.
CAP education officer O. Saraswathi, who is the campaign coordinator, said the campaign aimed at encouraging people to plant something on the first day of the year also saw more than 100 children from all over the country taking part.
All the participants had to do was take a picture with their plants and upload it to their social media accounts, either Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, with the hashtag ‘#GrowWithCAP2021’.
A RECENT survey has revealed that 70% of the Malaysian doctors who were polled have been victims of bullying while serving in the public sector, and – shockingly – 17% of them have contemplated suicide.
This is unacceptable because it shows how widespread the bullying culture is, and how severe. The statistics are worrying: about 75% of doctors responding to the Doc-tors Only Bulletin Board System (DOBBS) survey said that they are losing interest in their work, while 80% are worried.
The media has also reported on doctors confessing to being bullied with one doctor stating that colleagues have quit due to “exhaustion and mental trauma”, not because they lost their passion.
EVERY dark cloud has a silver lining. In the case of the Covid-19 pandemic, it was a respite of sorts for Mother Nature. With human activity restricte.
LETTER | Clamp down on sale of dangerous car accessories

LETTER | Earlier this year, Malaysian Institute of Road Safety Research (Miros) director-general Khairil Anwar Abu Kassim urged the government to ban the sale of car accessories that could pose a risk, especially in the event of a crash.
One such item is the dummy buckle, which was originally meant for plus-sized individuals, but has since been misused by people who refuse to buckle up while driving.
By inserting the dummy buckle into the seat belt buckle, these drivers can avoid the annoying chimes a modern car emits when the belt buckle isn’t fastened.
