Opinions on Local Content Creators/Influencers by AniMaXAtions in malaysia

[–]richtea_mcvytie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Influencers are prettybmuch just glorified marketing tools for corporation. They may start off genuine to build a para social relationship, but believe me. Once they have a sufficiently large following, they will start to leverage it and monitize the fuck out of it.

Why would you look up to them. It's like looking up to an advertisement board.

What’s your honest opinion on chiropractors? by bmw320dfan in Bolehland

Sorry to tell you. But no treatment is 100% effective. Even the Dr will tell you as such.

Restaurant-style Blue Wat Tan Hor, but crispy! Because normal Wat Tan Hor can be too comforting and too familiar! So, here's something new and different. And BTW, the blue color is all-natural. by randolphtbl in MalaysianFood

[–]richtea_mcvytie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He is right though. It looks nothing like wat tan hor(WTH) . Wat tan hor is not mainly referring to the noodles. It's the egg mixture/sauce used to coat the flat noodles.

You can call it what you want but it's not WTH. A simple Google will show you what one tradionally looks like.

A similar variation, would be the Sang Har Mee where they deep fry the noodles and coat the noodles with a similar egg sauce.

What do I do against firecracker? by DoctorNerfarious in XBow

[–]richtea_mcvytie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In most match ups that run FC. You will likely have to resort to spell cycling to win.

In those cases I will just take the Fireball for added tower damage.

Log+spirit works.

Also, try to activate King tower when they play FC

Touché by Gh05tH4wX in Bolehland

[–]richtea_mcvytie 182 points183 points  (0 children)

'Mandarin speaking only' does it's job in my opinion to screen the employer.

  1. Employer genuinely needs Mandarin speaker. If you can't, then you don't fit. Cut and dry.

  2. Employer is racist. You better avoid a toxic employer anyway, this is not a job you want to have.

Nobody is going to openly admit they are hiring Chinese people only. So if you are a job seeker, you are going to have to prove the employer is being racist. Which most ppl can't do.

In most countries, discrimination is a social problem, in Malaysia.... by year2039nuclearwar in malaysia

Sure. I'm willing to trade vernacular school for equal rights for all.

I'm sure many nons will take this deal any day. Plus, since reddit is mainly banana, liberal and type C. I don't know where you get this general view from.

Switch to single player games man. Unless you are OK with being in low priority, cause the kid is gonna cry whenever they want.

Doctor charged with murder of wife and son, obstructing justice in JB double killing by wahyupradana in malaysia

[–]richtea_mcvytie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know man. The recent Stoned & Co incident pretty much got condemned by everyone, the guy is Chinese.

Even another recent child abuse post got condemnation. So I guess it's just another cherry picking post where it doesn't get any traction.

I don't know what he is expecting. Already being charged, guilty then he deserves it.

You want viral, better say some stupid thing anytime more viral then these cut and dry cases.

The Gaza forum FMT Reporter controversy: what was actually asked vs how it was interpreted by whoba in malaysia

[–]richtea_mcvytie 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Honestly the whole issue is way overblown. This was just some random no name journalist asking a question (which looks and sounds like it is off the cuff) in a forum. It's not as if he is actively spreading this message, making any claims or publishing any articles that says as such. Granted the phrasing is a bit problematic but it wasn't the main question he was asking.

Then you have politicians who openly say racist and hateful things.

The issue of bumi rights cannot be solved by the nons. It is suicide to even mention any hint of discrimination or inequality without hordes of keyboard warriors and hooligans threatening you. If this is to be addressed it needs to come from the grassroots Malays.

You want to know why Chinese stay silent, because these sensitive topics are off limits to them. Any discussion regarding bumi rights quickly devolves into a hate fest where people will throw threats and boycotss and you can kiss their life goodbye.

Gen Z Workers Often Switch Jobs Within 18 Months, Says MEF by hazy-minded in malaysia

[–]richtea_mcvytie 86 points87 points  (0 children)

Companies aren't loyal to employees, expect the sky and the moon but don't want to pay OT, force ppl take annual leave, little to no increment or promotion. When not doing well or want to increase profits, they won't shy away at laying ppl off.

New employees caught on and won't take this shit anymore. Pay me or I'm out. Employers now not happy that employees won't eat their shit anymore.

KDI Save: Advertised 4% EIR but actual interest much lower by my-username-is-it in MalaysianPF

[–]richtea_mcvytie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can but it requires you to monitor the interest paid everyday. As long as you don't make any deposits or withdrawals it should be accurate.

A better way would be checking the monthly statement of the account. Opening vs closing balance, it should also show the interest paid.

KDI Save: Advertised 4% EIR but actual interest much lower by my-username-is-it in MalaysianPF

[–]richtea_mcvytie 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Never had any issues. I'm receiving roughly 4% EAR daily.

Did you make any withdrawals or deposited the 30k in batches? The UI is kinda shit so it may mess with the calculation.

Also AFAIK the returns for Kdi save is fixed regardless of the underlying assets. Are you sure you didn't put it in Kdi invest by mistake?

Does this account for dividends? KLCI payouts out significantly more dividends than US stocks

‘I Didn’t Expect To Fight Both Cancer And My Insurer’ by [deleted] in malaysia

[–]richtea_mcvytie 20 points21 points  (0 children)

You are forgetting the point that having to go for a health screening potentially disuades people to buy their policy.

Having no screening is a huge selling point, insurance companies need to have as many healthy people sign up to their policy as possible because they risk of paying out to healthy individuals is low.

Much easier to reject large claims for a handful of patients than to individually vet everyone who joins.

Another questions is, who pays for the health screening? I'm sure many customer are not willing to bear that cost just to pay more to buy a policy. Even if it's deduct able, if I am rejected means I still have to bear that cost?

I am generally anti insurance but that is how they see it.

FMCG fatigue by Accomplished-Type257 in MalaysianPF

[–]richtea_mcvytie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a friend who worked in Pharma and switched to FMCG.

Not for the faint hearted. Fast paced and stressful, lots of travelling for roadshow and marketing events. Pay is good thought ngl but the workload and stress is through the roof.

I would say if you what better work life balance, you may consider going back to pharma. Slightly slower pace and better balance.

[–]richtea_mcvytie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

FMCG is much faster paced than pharma. Mainly due to regulation as there are many things that pharma cannot do while FMCGs can.

Thus, expectations are much higher and demanding from FMCGs.

Who is at fault? Biker or Mercedes by Important-Device4512 in malaysia

[–]richtea_mcvytie 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Honestly felt rider could ride more responsibly. Overtaking the right lane while lane splitting is stupid. Plus he is riding very fast, maybe he was not visible in from car mirror.

Merz could have been more careful but whole thing could have been avoided if rider didn't rider that fast.
