Astro Shaw terus memperkukuhkan dunia sinematik mereka denagan melancarkan Astro Shaw Cinematic Universe: Kitab Kataha, iaitu sebuah video baharu yang tampil dengan pelbagai elemen misteri dan petunjuk tersembunyi untuk peminat ASCU.
Sebelum ini, ASCU: The Beginning berjaya mencetuskan fenomena apabila menghubungkan beberapa karakter popular dalam satu semesta yang sama. Kini, Kitab Kataha hadir bukan sebagai sambungan cerita, tetapi sebagai pembayang kepada konflik dan dimensi lain yang bakal diterokai dalam ASCU.
Video berdurasi hampir dua minit itu membawa penonton menelusuri perjalanan seorang karakter misteri, selain memaparkan sebuah kitab dengan simbol segitiga yang dipercayai mempunyai kaitan besar dengan dunia ASCU. Kemunculan elemen tersebut segera mencetuskan pelbagai spekulasi dalam kalangan peminat.
Projek ini diarahkan oleh Mshaffuan dan Sofyank, dua nama yang cukup dikenali dalam dunia kandungan digital dan VFX, manakala sinematografinya dikendalikan Nicholas Chin, penerima Anugerah Sinematografi Terbaik di Festival Filem Malaysia ke-34.
Bagi mengukuhkan lagi pengalaman peminat, Astro Shaw bersama Kopi WONDA turut memperkenalkan Spill The Beans (STB), sebuah platform kandungan digital yang menghimpunkan teori, petunjuk dan “easter eggs” berkaitan ASCU melalui karakter Wan Daud.
Ketua Astro Shaw, Raja Jastina Raja Arshad berkata, sambutan luar biasa terhadap video ASCU terdahulu membuktikan penonton kini lebih gemar menjadi sebahagian daripada perjalanan penceritaan dengan menganalisis setiap petunjuk yang diberikan.
Pelancaran ASCU: Kitab Kataha di Immersify Kuala Lumpur juga membuka ruang kepada pengalaman hiburan lebih imersif yang bakal diperluaskan menerusi filem-filem Astro Shaw akan datang seperti Malam Terlarang, Keluang Man dan Polis Evo.
TV AlHijrah terus mengukuhkan kedudukannya dalam landskap penyiaran negara menerusi pelancaran rasmi Akademi Seni Media Islam (ASMI), sebuah inisiatif strategik yang diwujudkan bagi melahirkan generasi baharu pemain industri media berteraskan nilai Islam serta mampu bersaing dalam era digital masa kini.
Majlis pelancaran yang berlangsung di kampus Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia (USIM), Nilai itu telah disempurnakan oleh Zulkifli Hasan dan turut dihadiri barisan kepimpinan TV AlHijrah, wakil institusi pengajian tinggi, pemain industri kreatif serta rakan strategik. Majlis tersebut juga diserikan dengan kehadiran Tunku Zain Al-‘Abidin ibni Tuanku Muhriz baru-baru ini.
Pelancaran ASMI menjadi satu langkah penting dalam usaha memperkasa pembangunan modal insan negara, khususnya dalam bidang seni, media dan komunikasi yang berteraskan nilai Islam progresif serta selari dengan keperluan semasa.
Sebagai stesen televisyen Islam pertama negara, TV AlHijrah kekal konsisten membawa kandungan yang menekankan ilmu, hikmah dan pembangunan masyarakat. Penubuhan ASMI pula mengukuhkan lagi peranan TV AlHijrah bukan sekadar sebagai penyedia kandungan berkualiti, malah sebagai platform yang membantu membentuk masa depan ekosistem kreatif Muslim menerusi pendidikan, latihan dan inovasi industri.
ASMI dibangunkan sebagai sebuah modul latihan yang memberi tumpuan kepada pembangunan bakat media dalam kalangan asatizah, pelajar institusi pengajian tinggi, golongan belia serta bakat baharu yang berpotensi untuk menyertai industri.
Program ini merangkumi pelbagai aspek latihan seperti komunikasi Islam, penerbitan kandungan, pengacaraan, media digital, strategi dakwah, pembentukan personaliti penyiaran dan kemahiran penyampaian yang lebih berkesan, sejajar dengan perkembangan dunia media hari ini.
Inisiatif ini juga menjadi simbol kerjasama strategik antara TV AlHijrah dan USIM dalam menggabungkan pengalaman industri bersama kepakaran akademik untuk melahirkan tenaga kerja yang bukan sahaja kompeten dan berintegriti, malah bersedia menghadapi cabaran dunia digital.
Menerusi ASMI, peserta akan didedahkan dengan ekosistem pembelajaran yang lebih menyeluruh meliputi kemahiran teknikal, pemikiran strategik, nilai kepimpinan serta pemahaman tentang peranan dakwah dalam dunia penyiaran moden.
Pada masa sama, ia membuka lebih banyak ruang kepada bakat baharu untuk menyerlah sebagai pencipta kandungan, personaliti media dan penyampai mesej Islam yang berkesan merentasi platform televisyen serta digital.
Pelancaran ASMI juga selari dengan hasrat TV AlHijrah untuk terus menerajui pembangunan kandungan Islam berimpak tinggi, di samping memperluaskan fungsi media sebagai agen pembangunan ummah, penyatuan masyarakat dan pencetus perubahan positif kepada negara.
TV AlHijrah komited untuk menjadikan ASMI sebagai institusi rujukan utama dalam pembangunan bakat media Islam di Malaysia dan rantau ini, sekali gus meletakkan Malaysia sebagai antara pusat rujukan media Islam progresif di peringkat serantau.
Kuala Lumpur, 14 May 2026 – vivo Malaysia has officially introduced the new vivo X300 FE, a lightweight flagship smartphone made for today’s urban explorers who want pro-level photography, smooth everyday performance, and reliable productivity in a compact design that’s easy to carry around. Combining the vivo ZEISS co-engineered imaging system, smart AI features, and long-term software support, the device packs flagship-level camera capabilities, all-day battery performance, and seamless connectivity into a slim and lightweight body — proving that a compact smartphone can still deliver a premium experience without compromise.
The vivo X300 FE comes equipped with a powerful camera setup featuring a 50MP ZEISS Super Telephoto Camera, a 50MP ZEISS Main Camera, and a 110° Ultra-Wide Low-Distortion Camera. Built to handle all kinds of shooting scenarios, from city adventures to concert nights, the system delivers sharp details, natural colors, and flexible focal options.
Its 50MP ZEISS Super Telephoto Camera takes long-distance photography to another level by bringing subjects closer while keeping detail and depth intact. For the first time in the FE series, users can now extend up to a 200mm equivalent focal length with the new vivo ZEISS Telephoto Extender Gen 2. Built using a compact Kepler-based optical architecture with 15 high-transmittance glass elements across two groups, the latest extender weighs only 153g compared to the previous generation’s 210g. The lighter design makes it easier to carry around and perfect for capturing performers on stage or sporting moments from a distance without missing the details.
Supporting the imaging system is the AI True Clarity Engine, powered by the NICE 3.0 Optical Reconstruction Engine, MAGIC 2.0 Image Restoration Engine, and Magic Cloud technology. Together, these features help enhance image details and texture reconstruction across different shooting conditions, producing cleaner and sharper results even in challenging environments or long-range shots.
Concert lovers will especially appreciate the Stage Mode feature, which has been fine-tuned specifically for live events and performances. Combining telephoto hardware with smart image optimization, the mode captures clearer subjects even under tricky stage lighting. Powered by Telephoto Magic 2.0 and GTR 3.0 optimizations, Ultra-Clear Stage Photography improves facial details, delivers more natural skin tones, smooth color transitions, and balanced image saturation.
The experience becomes even more immersive with Dual-View Stage Video, allowing users to record the stage performance and their own reactions at the same time. Meanwhile, Flash Portrait improves low-light shots using adaptive zoom flash technology, helping users capture both the stage atmosphere and personal concert memories more naturally.
For users who enjoy documenting everyday moments, Street Photography Mode focuses on preserving authentic and spontaneous scenes. Instead of chasing perfection, it embraces natural grain, slight motion blur, and ambient lighting to create photos that feel more alive and emotional. ZEISS Multifocal Portrait also gives users multiple classic focal lengths ranging from 23mm to 100mm for more natural portrait shots with smoother background separation.
Video creators are also getting plenty of flexibility with support for multiple recording formats, including 4K at 60fps for daily vlogs, 4K at 120fps for smoother footage, and 8K at 30fps for ultra-detailed content creation.
Adding another layer of creativity is the AI Creative Camera, designed to make editing and storytelling more fun. Users can combine AI Portrait with different visual styles such as Travel Portraits, Anime, and Stage-inspired looks to create more personalized shots. Additional AI tools including AI Magic Move, AI Image Expander, AI Reflection Erase, and AI Erase also make editing easier and faster.
On the design side, the vivo X300 FE sticks to a clean and compact flat-frame approach that feels comfortable in hand. It features a 6.31-inch flat display with ultra-thin bezels and a symmetrical front design that makes one-handed use feel natural while maintaining a premium look. Weighing just 191g and measuring only 7.99mm thin, the phone feels lightweight while still offering a stylish and modern appearance.
The Metallic Sand AG glass back adds a softer matte texture that feels smoother and resists fingerprints better. Its Dynamic Camera Module uses a floating droplet-inspired design that creates a more seamless transition between the camera housing and the body.
The device arrives in three colour options — Mist Purple, Glow White, and Luxe Black — inspired by modern city aesthetics with refined tones and subtle textures. Built with aerospace-grade aluminum framing, the X300 FE maintains durability without sacrificing portability.
Inside, the phone runs on OriginOS 6, vivo’s latest operating system designed to make connectivity across different devices feel more seamless. It supports cross-platform productivity through vivo Office Kit for Windows, Mac, and iPad, alongside One-Tap Transfer for iPhone users and the new Origin Island feature for smarter interaction. Privacy is also a priority, with dedicated security tools and a Private Space feature for storing important files, photos, and applications more securely.
Powering the X300 FE is the flagship Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset, delivering smooth multitasking, responsive gaming, and fast performance for demanding tasks. To keep temperatures under control, vivo includes an upgraded Efficient VC Liquid Cooling System with a 4005mm² vapor chamber and high-performance thermal graphite for stable performance even during intensive use.
Despite its slim body, the phone houses a large 6500mAh BlueVolt Battery paired with 90W FlashCharge and 40W Wireless Charging support. Combined with 4th-Generation Silicon Anode Technology and an intelligent Energy Efficiency Engine, users can enjoy improved battery life and charging efficiency without compromising long-term durability.
The vivo X300 FE also comes with IP68 and IP69 dust and water resistance ratings, giving users more confidence for everyday use across different environments. To support long-term usage, vivo is also offering five years of OS upgrades, seven years of security updates, and five years of smooth performance support.
The vivo X300 FE will be available in 24GB + 256GB and 24GB + 512GB variants starting from RM3,299. Customers can pre-order from today until 22 May 2026 at all vivo Concept Stores and online.
Customers who pre-order will receive exclusive gifts including a JBL speaker worth RM299 and vivo Buds Pro worth RM199. Buyers will also enjoy vivo Care benefits featuring an additional one-year warranty and 180 days of screen crack protection. To make the experience even better, users can enjoy RM300 savings on the vivo ZEISS Telephoto Extender Gen 2 bundle package, alongside flexible installment plans, selected bank promotions, PayLater offers, and trade-in deals available at vivo Concept Stores.

For generations, traditional Asian wellness philosophies have advocated a harmonious relationship with nature, encapsulated in the foundational advice to consume hearty meals during daylight hours and maintain a light dietary footprint in the evening. Today, contemporary scientific inquiry is validating this ancestral intuition. Emerging research in chrononutrition demonstrates that metabolic efficiency is inextricably linked to the body’s internal biological clock, revealing that the gastrointestinal system operates on a highly sophisticated, time-dependent schedule.
According to Herbalife’s Dr. Vipada Sae-Lao, our bodies are governed by a 24-hour circadian rhythm that operates at a cellular level, keeping organ systems in sync with day and night. The digestive tract is exceptionally clock-sensitive. Trillions of gut microbes maintain a constant dialogue with this internal clock to collectively regulate metabolic rate, insulin sensitivity, cardiovascular health, and immunity.
However, the structural demands of modern urban life—characterized by irregular shift work, late-night digital screen exposure, and erratic meal schedules, have systematically disrupted this biological equilibrium. When these behavioral patterns desynchronize the internal clock, gastrointestinal functionality declines, significantly elevating long-term risks for systemic inflammation, blood sugar volatility, and metabolic syndrome. The public health implications of this trend are substantial; recent data from the Ministry of Health indicates that diseases of the digestive system have risen to become among the top ten leading causes of hospitalization nationwide.
For World Digestive Health Day, experts urge a return to structured, clock-based eating. Post-fast, the morning gut is highly efficient, primed with active enzymes, and in a receptive metabolic state. Starting the day with a balanced, nutrient-dense breakfast significantly optimizes metabolic function. Clinicians increasingly recommend confining daily eating to a consistent 8-to-12-hour daytime window to allow the digestive tract crucial overnight recovery time.
Beyond caloric intake, the chronological management of hydration and stress is equally vital to metabolic resilience. In tropical, high-humidity environments like Malaysia, where non-renal fluid loss is pronounced, structured hydration remains essential. Consuming six to seven glasses of plain water daily supports systemic waste transit and nutrient absorption, provided intake is tapered in the evening to allow for physiological rest.
Conversely, nocturnal eating and elevated levels of the stress hormone cortisol act as severe disruptors, altering gut motility and compromising microbiome diversity. Ultimately, the convergence of traditional insights and modern clinical science underscores that sustainable health is achieved not through forced behavioral paradigms, but through the deliberate alignment of daily habits with the body’s natural 24-hour rhythm.
Healthcare provider i-Sihat Group has officially announced a comprehensive rebranding exercise, emerging as Mediwira Group. The strategic transformation comes alongside a rapid corporate expansion plan, with the group setting its sights on establishing at least 25 outlets by the end of this year, marking a nearly 50% increase from 2025 numbers—and a long-term target of 100 outlets nationwide by 2030.
The announcement was made during the group’s official brand unveiling event in Johor, which also marked the launch of a new medical clinic in the state, with a dedicated medispa outlet scheduled to open next month. The new additions bring Mediwira Group’s current portfolio to 21 operational outlets across Malaysia, comprising 12 dental clinics, 7 medical clinics, and 2 medispa outlets, with a primary footprint in the Klang Valley, Johor, and Sabah.
This aggressive growth strategy is positioned to capitalize on Malaysia’s expanding healthcare market. Driven by an aging demographic, a rising prevalence of non-communicable diseases (NCDs), and a booming medical tourism sector, the national medical sector is projected to reach a valuation of USD 30 billion by 2027.
The officiating guest of honor, YB Tuan Hassan Abdul Karim, Member of Parliament for Pasir Gudang, emphasized the critical role of private primary care in the current ecosystem. “With the current state of the nation’s healthcare landscape, the private clinic space has become increasingly vital. It bridges the gap between the public healthcare system and the upper tiers of healthcare specialists. It is here that I believe Mediwira will contribute significantly,” he noted, praising the group’s inclusive approach to healthcare delivery.
First established in 2012 by founding partners Dr. Nandagobala, Dr. Ratna, Dr. Mok Chi Chien, and Dr. Lavan, the group has evolved from its roots as i-Sihat into a diversified, one-stop clinical solution provider. Over its 14 years of operations, the provider has treated more than half a million patients across its specialized divisions. Mediwira Medical covers general practice, pediatrics, women’s health, and chronic disease management, and is set to integrate clinical psychology services. Mediwira Dental focuses on family, orthodontic, and implant dentistry, while Mediwira Medispa offers doctor-supervised, medical-grade aesthetic and body contouring treatments at accessible price points.
Commenting on the corporate milestone, Dr. Nanda, partner at Mediwira Group, stated, “We chose the name Mediwira to embrace our roles as healthcare heroes, symbolizing our commitment to quality care and service. In our 14 years of operation, we have welcomed over half a million patients. That isn’t just a business number, it is half a million times a patient has trusted us. When you walk into any Mediwira clinic, you’re walking into a family that’s been quietly caring for Malaysians for over a decade.”
Aligning its commercial growth with corporate social responsibility, the event also marked the launch of Mediwira’s ‘Food Aid’ community initiative. The ongoing program pledges to donate essential food and daily supplies to at least 10 underserved families each month, kicking off its inaugural session by distributing RM 120 worth of provisions to 15 families in the local community.
As Mediwira Group embarks on its multi-year expansion toward the 100-outlet milestone, the company has indicated that it is actively welcoming strategic partnerships and collaborative opportunities to accelerate its market reach.
Menjelang penghujung 2025, kedudukan pelaburan langsung asing (FDI) Malaysia berjaya melepasi angka RM1 trilion buat pertama kali dalam sejarah. Dengan nilai mencecah RM1.069 trilion, pencapaian ini menunjukkan keyakinan pelabur antarabangsa terhadap hala tuju ekonomi Malaysia terus berada pada tahap yang kukuh. Kalau beberapa tahun lalu perkara ini dilihat sukar untuk dicapai, kini ia sudah menjadi realiti.
Antoine Veillon, Group CEO of IEC Telecom Group, shared that Malaysia represents one of Southeast Asia’s most dynamic digital growth markets, driven by strong investment momentum, supportive policies, and increasing demand for reliable, enterprise-grade connectivity.
Apa yang lebih menarik, aliran modal ini bukan sekadar angka di atas laporan kewangan. Nama-nama besar yang terlibat membuktikan potensi sebenar Malaysia di mata dunia. Microsoft misalnya mengumumkan pelaburan bernilai USD2.2 bilion untuk pembangunan infrastruktur awan dan teknologi AI di Malaysia, manakala Google pula menyusul dengan pelaburan USD2 bilion bagi pembangunan pusat data serta perluasan perkhidmatan awan mereka.
Pelaburan seperti ini bukan dibuat secara suka-suka atau bersifat sementara. Ia adalah komitmen jangka panjang daripada syarikat global yang sangat teliti dalam menilai risiko dan potensi sesebuah pasaran. Kehadiran syarikat-syarikat gergasi ini menunjukkan Malaysia kini bukan lagi sekadar pasaran membangun yang diperhatikan dari jauh, tetapi sudah mula dilihat sebagai destinasi penting untuk pelaburan digital bertaraf global.
Hisham Ghaffar, Managing Director, APAC, IEC Telecom, emphasised that operational continuity will be key to Malaysia’s digital transformation, with hybrid connectivity models and LEO satellite solutions playing an increasingly integral role in strengthening network resilience.
Bagi mereka yang mengikuti perkembangan ekonomi dan teknologi di rantau ini, momentum seperti ini sebenarnya bukan sesuatu yang mengejutkan. Malaysia sejak beberapa tahun kebelakangan ini menunjukkan perkembangan yang konsisten dalam sektor digital dan teknologi.
Menurut Antoine Veillon, Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif Kumpulan IEC Telecom yang mempunyai lebih tiga dekad pengalaman dalam industri telekomunikasi satelit global, Malaysia kini berada dalam kelompok pasaran digital yang berkembang paling pantas di Asia Tenggara. Syarikatnya juga baru-baru ini membuka operasi di Malaysia sebagai sebahagian daripada strategi pengembangan serantau mereka.
As Malaysia’s digital economy expands rapidly, ensuring consistent and reliable connectivity across all regions remains essential to support SMEs, enable nationwide growth, and fully realise the country’s digital ambitions.
Menurut beliau lagi, gabungan pelaburan yang semakin kukuh, dasar kerajaan yang mesra pembangunan serta permintaan tinggi terhadap sambungan yang stabil menjadikan Malaysia sebuah pasaran yang cukup menarik untuk pembangunan infrastruktur jangka panjang. Dalam dunia hari ini, sambungan bukan lagi sekadar kemudahan, tetapi sudah menjadi faktor penting yang menentukan daya saing ekonomi sesebuah negara.
Globally, as investments in cloud, AI, and digital infrastructure accelerate, resilient and multi-layered connectivity networks are becoming a critical foundation for sustaining growth and competitiveness in the digital economy.
Namun begitu, pengumuman pelaburan besar hanyalah sebahagian daripada cerita yang lebih besar. Persoalan utama sekarang ialah sama ada infrastruktur sambungan sedia ada mampu bergerak seiring dengan kepesatan pembangunan yang sedang berlaku. Inilah perkara yang akan menentukan sama ada Malaysia benar-benar mampu muncul sebagai hab digital serantau yang kukuh atau sekadar berkembang lebih laju daripada kemampuan infrastrukturnya sendiri.
