Four Dead After Attending New Year’s Eve Concert in Malaysia”The New Year’s Eve celebrations at the Pinkfish 2024 Countdown concert in Malaysia took a tragic turn when four attendees were found dead shortly after the event. The deaths were reported by a hospital in Kuala Lumpur, with the victims ranging in age from their 20s to 40s. The concert, which took place at Sunway Lagoon’s Surf Beach in Selangor, featured live performances by both local and international artists. Selangor police chief Hussein Omar Khan confirmed that all four victims had attended the event, and the cases have been classified as sudden deaths. An initial autopsy revealed no external injuries on the deceased, but the exact cause of death is still under investigation, pending laboratory results. The police have opened an inquiry to explore whether foul play or toxic substances could be involved. A statement released on the police’s Facebook page on January 1st urged anyone with information to come forward. A TikTok video, which showed a person being wheeled away on a gurney, has raised concerns, with some speculating that the individual may have overdosed, although it is unclear if the video is connected to the deaths. In response to the incident, the Pinkfish event organisers released a statement on January 2nd, offering their condolences to the families of the deceased. They clarified that the deaths occurred outside the concert venue, with Malaysian authorities confirming this. The organisers also highlighted the safety measures in place at the event, including over 100 police officers, trained security personnel, and police dog units stationed at entry points. Pinkfish, an annual outdoor music and arts festival, is known for promoting creativity and community. The concert on December 31st was one of several events held to mark the new year in Malaysia.”

“A coffee shop in Jalan Besar has been providing free breakfast sets for students since November 2024, yet not a single student has taken up the offer.

The initiative, which is limited to 10 sets per day, requires students to simply show up in their uniforms to receive a meal. The offer includes two slices of toasted bread with butter and kaya, two half-boiled eggs, and a hot drink.

Crystal, the manager of the coffee shop, shared with Mothership that the goal was to ensure students start their day with a proper meal before heading to school. Despite the lack of response, she has no plans to discontinue the initiative anytime soon.

In addition to this offer, the coffee shop hosts several stalls providing budget-friendly meals throughout the day. Crystal also pointed out that many neighbourhoods have families with lower incomes, and similar initiatives have been carried out elsewhere, such as Kou Wei’s efforts at 531 Bedok Eating House since 2018.”
