Moratorium on the Rent Increase: What You Need to Know โ€“ Renters ...23 Julai 2020, 11:10 am
Dalam isu moratorium, sebenarnya kerajaan tidak mempunyai pilihan selain memberi โ€˜lampu hijauโ€™ melanjutkan pembayaran balik ini terutama kepada golongan terjejas.Walaupun terdapat beberapa pilihan lain yang dipertimbangkan tetapi ia dilihat tidak membantu sepenuhnya golongan yang betul-betul memerlukan lanjutan ini.

Pandemik Covid-19 bukan sahaja menyebabkan mereka hilang pekerjaan secara tiba-tiba ketika Perintah Kawalan Pergerakan (PKP) dilaksanakan tetapi lebih menekan golongan yang telah kehilangan pekerjaan lebih awal dari tempoh itu dan gagal mencari pekerjaan lain sebelum PKP.

Sepatutnya dalam keadaan terhimpit ketika ini, kerajaan cuba berunding dengan pihak bank untuk melihat langkah-langkah terbaik yang boleh dilaksanakan kedua-dua pihak dan bukannya menyerahkan keputusan itu dibuat institusi perbankan.

Pertimbang penjara, denda tak pakai pelitup muka | Harian Metro23 Julai 2020
KUALA LUMPUR - Harga siling pelitup separuh muka akan diturunkan kepada RM1.20 seunit daripada RM1.50 bermula 15 Ogos, kata Menteri Perdagangan Dalam Negeri dan Hal Ehwal Pengguna, Datuk Alexander Nanta Linggi.

Beliau berkata, harga borong bahan itu yang ketika ini RM1.45 seunit juga akan diturunkan kepada RM1.15 bermula pada tarikh sama.

Penurunan harga itu, kata beliau, selaras dengan langkah kerajaan untuk menimbangkan keperluan mewajibkan pemakaian pelitup separuh muka di tempat awam seperti yang disaran Perdana Menteri Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.

"Dari segi bekalan, tinjauan dan pemantauan mengenai pengeluaran serta pengedaran pelitup muka adalah mencukupi ditambah juga dengan yang diimport... jadi soal bekalan tidak ada masalah,โ€ katanya pada sesi soal jawab di Dewan Rakyat hari ini.

Beliau berkata, kerajaan akan terus mengkaji keperluan untuk menurunkan harga pelitup separuh muka dan memastikan bekalan mencukupi.

KOTA BARU: Pensioners doggedness to make mudballs to purify water enabled him and his wife to earn RM3,000 to RM4,000 a month since 2010.

The couple, Mohd Nashir Yaacob and his wife, Ramlah Salim, both 61, made mudballs from organic materials at their house in a village, which found a high demand in Kelantan and outside the state.

"Hearing customers complaining of problems with water, such as having foul and fishy smell and rust, I suggested that they use mudballs to purify the water.

"Making mudball goes through a storage process of up to two weeks.

"So 1,200 mudballs are made in a month, which are packed into 400 packages and sold at RM10 each," he said in Kampung Che Arus Kok Lanas, Ketereh, here.

KUALA LUMPUR, July 22 โ€” The Implementation of Temporary Measures to Reduce Impact of Covid-19 Bill, which is being drawn up, is set to create room and opportunities for the recovery process of affected individuals and companies while stimulating the countryโ€™s economy in the long term.

Hence, Minister in the Prime Ministerโ€™s Department (Parliament and Law) Datuk Takiyuddin Hassan expressed hope it would be welcomed and supported by every layer of society in order to achieve the goals in drafting the Bill.

โ€œThis is the governmentโ€™s commitment to reduce the legal impact of Covid-19 with the hope of ensuring the continued well-being of the public,โ€ he said in a written reply to Datuk Seri Mukhriz Mahathir (Independent-Jerlun) at the Dewan Rakyat sitting today.

Mukhriz asked whether the government would introduce an Act to protect companies and individuals for failing to fulfil the terms of an agreement or contract as a result of Covid-19.

JULY 22 โ€” The last week or so, it felt as though the government had spent a lot of time stating the obvious.

The poverty line has been revised (at last) and on another note, numbers showed that so many children were unable to access learning resources remotely.

We also have hundreds, perhaps thousands of university students left in a bind as they need to return to campus a lot sooner than anticipated.

With so many Malaysians losing their jobs or getting pay cuts, it feels inappropriate for the prime minister to call on Malaysians to spend.

Spend with what, or whose money?

A lot more Malaysians are more focused on cutting back or saving for a rainy day. In my case, I'm just waiting a few more months so I can switch to a cheaper phone contract.

PETALING JAYA: As the government mulls making the wearing of face masks in public places mandatory, some are for it while others offer a more cautious view as the country continues in its fight against the Covid-19 pandemic.

Alliance for Safe Community chairman Tan Sri Lee Lam Thye said complacency had started to set in with many Malaysians disregarding social distancing, wearing face masks and avoiding crowded places.

โ€œI think the statement by Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin is very apt, relevant and timely.

โ€œFrom what we have been observing, compliance with the standard operating procedure has been reduced with social distancing and use of face masks not being practised in many places, especially in crowded areas.

โ€œThe Prime Minister is warning us not to let our guard down, otherwise there will be a second wave, โ€ he said.

LETTER | Come October, after the brief moratorium on loans, all consumers will have to face the banks they have taken loans with. This will include those who have lost their jobs or had their incomes reduced. Daily wage earners or workers in the so-called "gig" economy will not be exempted.

It is indeed a challenging and painful period for many individuals and families. Firstly, they may already be facing the loss of employment and income, but what may be scarier is the uncertainty of the future in terms of job vacancies or income stability. They will have to meet the banks to renegotiate their loans.

Now more than ever is the time for banks to show compassionate banking. The concept is basically about the banking system acknowledging difficulties faced by borrowers in trying times.
