The public car park adjacent to the Kinabalu National Park has collapsed due to incessant rain over the past week. A viral video has been circulating around social media showing the extend of the damage though the 2-lane road next to it is not affected. Located at km 20 Jalan Ranau-Tamparuli in the Kundasang highlands in Ranau, the district police chief, Sammy Newton, believed that the landslide happened earlier this morning as the police department was alerted at 7.15 am. He told reporters that
Menyediakan jalan raya awam yang selamat adalah tanggungjawab pihak berwajib. Musim monsoon dan banjir kilat mengeruhkan lagi keadaan dimana lubang jalan tersembunyi serta jalan licin boleh mengakibatkan kecederaan mahupun kematian. Usah dikenang sistem perparitan yang teruk dan proses pembandaran yang pesat sehingga menyebabkan air semakin sukar menyusup keluar, lubang dan kerosakan nyata di jalan raya sering mengambil masa yang sangat lama untuk dibaiki. Endah tak endah, sehinggalah ada yang k
The Court of Appeal has upheld a lower court ruling that the management of a car park is liable of negligence rendering disclaimers of exemption clauses posted by the car park non-viable. Sunway Parking Services Sdn Bhd was ordered to pay about RM 117,000 of damages to Euro Rent A Car Sdn Bhd in the case where the rental car company’s vehicle was stolen from the premises. This means that car park disclaimer notices posted at various locations of a parking lot informing visitors that the manageme
Though it has been warned over and over by parents, relatives and the kepoh auntie next door, many of us still neglect to lock our cars the moment we get into it. For this lady, after the incident of a stranger trying to force his way into her car in a mall parking lot, she is thankful that she has the practice down pat. The terrifying incident happened in Mid Valley Megamall car park on the 6th of August. According to the lady’s Facebook post, she was taking a quick rest in her car after her sh
You're looking at what Nissan's flagship sports car would look like and not only does it look tantalising but so are the specs: Mid-engine, V6-powered, and rear-wheel drive. Are we looking at Nissan's comeback? While last year's Nissan Z Proto brought much excitement to car enthusiasts all over the world, that is clearly an appetiser of exciting things to come from the beleaguered Japanese giant according to Japanese media. The idea of a mid-engine Nissan flagship isn’t brand-new though. More th
(Model | Gallery) What you're looking at on this page is the Mazda 2 Hatchback Mid. The lower and more affordable Mazda 2 was introduced when Bermaz Motors introduced the facelift with G-Vectoring Control version to our shores. With the 2 Mid, you lose all of Mazda's infotainment system that you get on the higher spec car like the MZD Connect, the touch screen display and even the head-up display. The higher spec Mazda 2 is priced at RM 94,670 without the signature Kodo Red, this puts the 2 Mid

There’s a mysterious Hyundai MR23T spotted being ferried around in South Korea and reports claim that this is the test mule for Hyundai’s next mid-engine rear-wheel drive mega hatchback! These pictures were uploaded to Korean car website, Bobaedream. From the pictures, we can see a Hyundai Veloster that’s been heavily souped-up with flared wheel arches and aggressive bumpers. What’s interesting is the ‘MR23T’ text plastered on the side and rear of the car. ‘MR’ is often understood as the short f
On 3 January 2021, it was reported that an elderly motorcyclist was involved in a fatal accident along Jalan Tengah near Mid Valley. Following queries of the road’s upkeep, the Public Works Department (JKR) has issued a reply that the road in question is under City Hall’s jurisdiction.

Kali ini, ia melibatkan seorang rider GrabFood di Mutiara Damansara. Kejadian berlaku kira-kira pukul 1.15 petang di simpang lampu isyarat di Jalan PJU 7/2.

(Model | Gallery) Overview The Nissan X-Trail is Edaran Tan Chong Motors (ETCM) best-selling SUV and the company recently introduced the new 2019 facelifted version. Packed with improved refinement, technologies and safety features, the X-Trail finally looks convincing to customers in the showroom. In the pre-facelift 2019 Nissan X-Trail, all variants only came with 2 airbags. Yes, even on the range-topping model that costs upwards of RM 150k. That shortcoming was placed under a magnifying glass
As a car person, the worst situation we can find our cars in when we return from a holiday is to find the car vandalised or stolen. This Mercedes-AMG GT owner did not have his car stolen but he did return from his 5-day holiday to find his beloved supercar almost completely dismantled. Jay Tranter left his Mercedes-AMG GT in a guarded car park located not far from the Birmingham airport before he left for his 5-day holiday with his girlfriend. The 36-year-old came back from his short holiday to
The Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) have busted a syndicate specialised in stealing car exhaust parts operating around a housing area in Klang Valley. According to PDRM, the parts are stripped down to later turn into white gold and sold as jewellery. Head of Serdang Police, Assistant Commissioner Razali Abu Samah told the press that 3 men aged between 36 to 54 years old were arrested in separate raids at a hotel in Jalan Imbi, Kuala Lumpur and SS2, Petaling Jaya. They were found in possession of 15
Bermaz Auto has quietly discontinued the Mid Spec Mazda 2 Hatchback and Sedan in Malaysia, just shy of 2 years since the model was launched here. We understand that Bermaz decided to discontinue the Mid Spec variants is due to the impending price hike for fully imported (CBU) cars that is set to happen in June 2020, as all variants of the Mazda 2 are imported from Thailand. The price hike would mean that the Mid Spec Mazda 2 would be priced too high in the already price-sensitive B-segment marke
While many car fans recognise the legend of the first Honda NSX and how it beat the mighty Ferrari, it was another Japanese carmaker that first gave the Italian stallion a scare. Nissan produced not one, but two supercar concepts that were ready to fight against the Italian but sadly pulled the plug. With reports of Nissan looking to launch a mid-engine 3.0-litre V6 flagship sports car in 2024, we decide to take a look back at Nissan’s first attempts at a flagship sports car, the MID4 concepts.

If you are reading this, it is safe to assume that you have some level of interest in cars. What about cars that made you interested in them? When and how did you started liking cars? For me, it was when a silver E24 BMW M635CSi pulled up next to my dad’s Proton Saga. I was 5 years old but I still vividly remembered everything. The second time was when my dad was driving on the then new North South Highway. I was sleeping when my dad yelled at me to wake up, telling me to look at the Porsche com
Last week, we’ve chronicled how Hyundai grew from a small workshop to a world-class automaker. What was left out however, was the hows and the whys behind the rise of Korea’s car industry, which will be discussed in the following text. When Malaysia gained its independence, Korea was a failed state. It relied on donations from the US for 70 percent of its budget, and had nothing worth exporting. In 1960, Malaysia’s (Malaya) GDP per capita was USD 234. South Korea earned just USD 158 - poorer tha
Though Kuala Lumpur is now a sprawling metropolis, it still bears signs of the jungle that it was before urbanisation took hold. We’ve often heard about Bomba being called to homes to remove dangerous animals that have broken and entered in, especially snakes. But we’ve definitely have not seen or hear a snake breaking into a car! A few pictures of a yellow snake slithering out of an air-conditioning vent of a Toyota Vios have since gone viral across social media. It is believed that the snake w
Along with the MI-Tech concept, Mitsubishi has also teased the Super Height K-Wagon, a concept kei car. Kei cars are popular in Japan for its price and convenience. Its boxy design maximizes interior space while the compact dimensions makes it easy to park. It features the MI-Pilot assistance for highway driving in the same-lane, forward collision mitigation braking, mis-acceleration mitigation and other advanced active safety systems. The Super Height K-Wagon and the MI-Tech will be exhibited a
UMW Toyota Motor (UMWT), the sole authorized distributor of Toyota and Lexus vehicles in Malaysia, will be moving out of its current head office building in Persiaran Raja Muda in Shah Alam, according to sources familiar with the matter. The relocation has been planned several years earlier so the decision is not directly related to the current poor market outlook, although the Toyota’s falling market share over the last 5 years was probably a motivating factor in right-sizing the organization.
At the media test drive event today, Proton has confirmed that the 2020 Proton X50 will feature Auto Park Assist.

It also helps in exiting parallel parking spots. The system actively controls the steer
Three years after making its world debut in Detroit, USA, Honda has given its mid-size Accord a mid-lifecycle update. However, changes are very minor. In terms of styling, the 2021 Honda Accord will get a new front grille and bumper, new LED headlights with a longer and wider illumination, and new alloy wheels. Honda says the grille is now wider, but you have to squint your eyes really hard to tell the difference. The most noticeable difference are the new front fog lamp housing. Inside, the upg
Just like that, we are 2 weeks into MCO 2.0. This most likely means that most of us are working from home, which then means our cars aren't driven much. Nevertheless, there are some things you can do to keep your car in tip top condition despite it being underdriven. Here are some pointers that might be useful to keep in mind in this second MCO season. Don't park under trees You might think that parking your car under trees is a good idea, since the car does get some shade from the sun. Well, if

Not finding a parking spot is frustrating, but it’s not the reason why you can park whatever you want! (Picture credit: Foxnews) Fox News reported driver in Argentina parked his Peugeot 208 at a COTO supermarket in Temperley, Argentina.
