Witty Game : Breakout at NU Sentral

 I recently went to Breakout at NU Sentral and played “The War for Rembrandt” with two friends. The game is recommended for beginners and has a 65% success rate. From the start, we purposely chose an easier game because we wanted a higher chance of winning, especially since the tickets weren’t cheap. Even the staff suggested we pick a simpler room.

Before the game began, we were given a short briefing on the dos and don'ts. Only one person was allowed to bring a phone into the room, as we needed to download their app beforehand for in-game hints and assistance. All our belongings were stored in a provided locker.

The game lasted about 50 minutes. Our first impression upon entering the first room was “wow”. It really felt like stepping into a different world. It was definitely a mental challenge. We asked for hints twice, yet still we didn’t make it through the final room in time.

We really enjoyed it although we failed. Haha!

Breakout is a themed real-life escape room venue located on Level 4 of NU Sentral mall, Groups of 2 to 8 players enter interactive themed rooms and have 45 to 60 minutes to solve puzzles and find their way out. They prefer that you book online in advance so you can secure your time slot and choose your escape room ahead of time.

I highly recommend this game for anyone whether you're playing with friends, family and kids, or even as part of a team-building activity. You’ll still enjoy it even if you lose, like we did ;p and I can imagine it’s even more exciting if you manage to win!

Decathlon giving back to community

 I recently attended a free Zumba class at the Decathlon PJ branch, which is part of their regular weekly activities that include Zumba, yoga, and more. These activities are often offered at a minimal fee, with occasional free classes for the community, perhaps once a month. The atmosphere was lively, with families playing ping pong and children riding small bikes within the venue, adding to the sense of community. This initiative by Decathlon is a fantastic example of how a business can give back to local residents while promoting a healthy and active lifestyle. I haven’t seen other sports retailers in Malaysia adopt a similar approach. While Decathlon remains a business, they’ve successfully integrated CSR activities by fostering a sports culture through the free or affordable use of their facilities, like badminton, basketball, and futsal courts in selected branches, including those in Selangor, Johor Bahru, and Penang. Classes like Zumba, Pound, and Yoga/Pilates are also availa...

Casual Insights: ESG and Malaysia Business

 In today's business world, Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) is not just a term; it's a game-changer. It's reshaping how companies do things, from how they run their day-to-day operations to the way they invest money and build connections in society. ESG considerations are no longer optional; they are integral to modern business practices. This shifts businesses towards a more mindful way of operating, investing, and being part of the community.   When we talk about the "E" in ESG, we're looking at how a company affects the environment. This includes areas like carbon emissions, energy efficiency, waste management, climate change, and deforestation.   When we talk about the "S" in ESG, we're uncovering how a company connects with society. This encompasses fostering diversity, ensuring fair labour practices, supporting community initiatives, and upholding human rights. The "S" reveals the social footprint or sheds light on the...

Bundle culture in Malaysia

  Bundle culture revolves around buying second-hand clothes and items from thrift stores, often referred to as bundle shops or bundle stores. Popular examples are 2nd STREET and JBR Bundle, both offering a wide variety of second-hand items. Many Malaysians, especially students and young adults, opt for bundle clothing because it offers fashionable items at a much lower price. These shops often offer a mix of vintage styles, which reflect classic or retro designs, and modern fashion that showcases trendy and contemporary looks. This diversity also allows shoppers to discover unique pieces that are not typically found in regular retail stores, adding a personal touch to their individual style. Exploring bundle stores offers a sense of adventure, much like treasure hunting. Finding a rare or perfectly fitting item on the racks can be incredibly satisfying and makes the whole shopping trip even more exciting. Bundle shops are more than just stores as they become community hubs where pe...
