1. Malala Yousafzai pernah menggunakan nama samaran Gul Makai semasa menulis blog tentang kehidupan di bawah Taliban. Beliau menulis blog untuk BBC pada ketika umur 11 tahun. Bayangkan beliau masih kanak-kanak lagi pada ketika ini. 


2. Pada tahun 2012, dalam perjalanan pulang menaiki bas selepas mengambil peperiksaan di sekolahnya, Malala telah ditembak oleh Taliban bersama 2 kanak-kanak perempuan lain.

Since we are nearing Hari Merdeka and celebrating the month of Independence Day, there is much to appreciate—from the peace and prosperity of our sovereign country to its evolving economic, social, and cultural diversity. Since independence, Malaysia has made remarkable progress developing the healthcare system.

This has resulted in unequal health outcomes and access to essential services. In the early years following independence, efforts were focused on addressing the healthcare needs of the population and expanding the healthcare infrastructure, which included the development of new hospitals and clinics in both urban and rur...

There are free lockers to put away the bags or just leave i...
