Oh, I didn't know Malaysians face travel bans across many countries!

THIS video has been circulated around so many times that it has reached me at least twice after it was first shared on social media.

If you have received this video talking about why Malaysians are facing travel bans and restrictions (so called in 2025), you have been fooled. If you do not believe me, check the Star: https://www.thestar.com.my/news/true-or-not/2025/03/25/quickcheck-have-new-visa-restrictions-been-imposed-on-malaysians-travelling-abroad The reporter has also checked with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The video was already around since 2023 or 2024 as far as I remember.

The way to deal with this kind of video is to just ignore it. Exercise some critical thinking to evaluate whether the video holds any truth. Ask yourself these questions:

Who produced this video?
Why is it produced?
Who has all the time in the world to create a video of this kind?
Why only featuring the Malaysian passport?

I don't know who produced the video myself, but I can tell you it is RUBBISH. For example, Australia does not have too many restrictions for Malaysian passports. They are only concerned with some Malaysians who enter Australia to work illegally.

I have relatives and friends who travel to Australia very often. No issue at all. In fact, I asked another friend of mine who works with the Australian High Commission, and she confirmed that the Australian Immigration does not have any restrictions on the Malaysian passport.

As for the rest of the video, you can just delete it. Why then has someone so much time to produce a video like this UNLESS he is paid to do the job to discredit Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim?

Every other thing that is being played up now has one objective: to topple Anwar because they know that sooner or later, they will be pursued by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC).

So, the final question, "Why only featuring the Malaysian passport?" especially since video is produced as though it is a documentary is obvious now.

If I were you, I would just delete it. Do not subscribe to the modern Surat Layang (the numerous posts on Social Media) which was the work of a former rabble rouser back in the 1960s, which led to social unrest, and eventually, our Bapa Malaysia, Tunku Abdul Rahman Petra Al-Haj was pressured to step down.

Since then, the same modus operandi has been used against Tunku Abdullah Ahmad Badawi and others. Use some common sense and learn to be discerning Malaysians.

My text is in Malay, but the text in English, Mandarin and Tamil below is provided by Artificial Intelligence.” Teks saya dalam Bahasa Malaysia tetapi Teks bahasa Inggeris, Mandarin dan Tamil di bawah dibekalkan oleh Artificial Intelligence: Daulat Tuanku, beribu-ribu ampun. Bukan saja di Malaysia, rakyat mengalami kos saraan hidup yang tinggi tetapi selepas Pandemik Covid, banyak negara mengalami isu yang sama. Secara ringkas, pinjaman negara meningkat selama ini disebabkan masalah 1MDB, pandemik dan interest yang perlu dibayar. Berbanding dengan zaman DrM di mana elit yang mendapat bantuan, tetapi masih memerlukan bailout termasuklah anak Dr M sendiri. Dalam era DSAI, ekonomi beliau yang berteraskan B40 dan M40, ini yang rakyat hendak lihat. Semua bantuan yang disalurkan kepada golongan ini akhirnya juga dapat mempertabatkan GDP dan ekonomi negara dan memanfaatkan rakyat Tuanku.

My heart will go on

It must be at least twenty years ago when I first encountered Malaysia’s very own Stevie Wonder, Colin Ng Soon Beng. It was during Chinese New Year, at the home of a mutual friend. Colin was only about ten years old then. His mother introduced him to me as a “special child.” She said, “Pick a song. We’ll play it for Colin to listen, and he will play it back for you.” I chose My Heart Will Go On from Titanic. To this day, Colin still remembers that it was the song he played for me. Born with multiple disabilities, Colin’s journey has been anything but ordinary. Being visually impaired, he could not learn music the way most children do. Yet God blessed him with an extraordinary gift: a razor-sharp ear. He could identify the brand of a photocopier or the model of a car simply by hearing its sound. His mother, Janet, devoted her life to nurturing his talent. After losing her husband when Colin was 24, she became not only a mother but also a father figure, chauffeur, and companion in ...

DALAM EMPAT BAHASA/ IN FOUR LANGUAGES/在四种语言中/ நான்கு மொழிகளில்: A Piece of Good News Worth Celebratinng

Akhirnya, anak Sarawak ini — Soliman Wan — telah menerima kewarganegaraannya! Dilahirkan 52 tahun lalu di kawasan pedalaman Sarawak, bukan sesuatu yang mudah bagi ayah dan ibunya untuk ke bandar bagi mendaftarkan kelahriannya. Tambahan pula, pada waktu itu, ramai penduduk di Sabah dan Sarawak kurang memahami kepentingan dokumen rasmi sebagai bukti status kewarganegaraan. Soliman dilahirkan pada tahun 1974, ketika Malaysia baru berusia 13 tahun. Kefahaman mengenai kewarganegaraan masih belum begitu meluas, terutamanya dalam kalangan masyarakat yang tercicir daripada arus pembangunan dan sistem pendidikan negara. Kehidupan Soliman sebagai seorang pastor penuh dengan cabaran. Tanpa kewarganegaraan, beliau tidak dapat memiliki kad pengenalan, memohon pasport, membuka akaun bank, dan pergerakannya sangat terhad, malah di dalam negara sendiri. Gajinya terpaksa dibayar melalui akaun individu lain yang dipercayai. Kini, dengan penganugerahan kewarganegaraan ini, komuniti Kristian di gerejanya ...
