Can teacher simply cane children in class?

Just now I went to school to wait for son finished from class. Then I get him, he told that don't push up his pants to see because there's cane marks on his thigh almost near the knee area. It is not the first time the BM teacher hitting children in class. He has a bad behavior and many parents has complained about him but nothing being done by the school.

Son was hit by the teacher and he wasn't alone seem other classmate was hit by the teacher as well. The teacher used double cane, which mean it is not one cane but two canes together to cane. I called it double rotan, it is obvious can view the marks on his thigh. 

There is another incident in class that other parent told me that the teacher suddenly got upset and throw the marker pen and it hit the child's face. My son and his classmates witnessed the teacher bad behavior a time where the teacher throw the school's chair on the floor and the leg's of the chair breaks off and nearly hit one of the student in class, even next door teacher knew about it and their class teacher know about it. 

Sometimes this teacher very angry as he not able to hit the student, the student ran in the classroom and he needs to chase the student to hit. It's not the first time he destroy the school's property. The teacher did it again but kicking the cabinet in class and jam it as the class teacher came in class wanted to open the cabinet but cannot, students in class told her about it. Even next door teacher know about this teacher's behavior.

We want to know the truth why the teacher hitting children without a reason. It's time to speak up and voice up, whatever you can do about it.

The launch of Carrie Bac Buster the 1st Antibacterial Super Bodywash and Antibacterial Super Handwash


I attended the Launch of Carrie Bac Buster last week, it was held at KidZania Kuala Lumpur.
My sons are using the Carrie Junior and they are excited when they found out now there's Carrie Bac Buster, the 1st Antibacterial Super Bodywash and Antibacterial Super Handwash range.

Being parent of two boys, I know they are presence of harmful bacteria around us is a cause for concern especially for our children as it could compromise their healthy growth and development. Educating children on good hygiene is the best way to prevent the spread of infections and diseases.
Teaching and reminding our children the principles of proper hygiene can help keep them healthy.
During the event there's performance to see how CARRIE BAC BUSTER fights off the harmful bacteria with its BAC BUSTER power.
You can view my instagram
Video 1 and Video 2, click on the link to view the performance I recorded.

In the practice of personal hygiene, regular hand washing is most important for children. School going children spend a lot time out of home and away from parental supervision. They have many activities and interact with many people and environments. These acts expose them to harmful bacteria that may cause common illness like colds, flu, and gastroenteritis as well as skin and eye infections.

With younger pre-schooler I have four years old that's in Kindergarten. I am sure parents and caregivers still bathe them and thus the adult or parent can ensure a proper clean up. With older kids, my son bathed independently, he takes time to bath to make sure that he's clean. If you have older children that likes to hurry through bathing, you might want to motivate them to clean thoroughly  is very important. 

Being parent, I am sure many parents like me are invariably concerned whether their children are washing up properly and whether the cleansing products are truly effective in totally removing harmful bacteria. This is where the solution provided by CARRIE, the leading premium children's personal care brand can really make a difference.

Jordan's healthy teeth initiative‏

Brushing teeth has become such a part of our routine that we don't really give much though. Much less to the toothbrushes we use!

Have you ever wondered what people used to brush their teeth in the past? How did toothbrushes comes about and when did it all began? Sharing with you some info on toothbrushes through the ages

This may comes as a surprise to many but the first recorded form of oral hygiene was the chew-stick discovered in 3500BC in Babylonia and in China around the 1600BC. Chew-sticks were made from aromatic tree twigs with frayed ends. Back then users brushed the frayed ends against their teeth to freshen their breath. The other end functional as a toothpick.

The use of chew-sticks was also found in Indian and Arabic cultures. According to records discovered, Ayurvedic Indian medicine used twigs from a banyan tree while ancient Arabic communities created chew sticks manufactured from the roots and twigs of the Arak tree. This became known as Miswak and were valued for their antiseptic and antibacterial properties.

The first natural bristle toothbrush to resemble the modern-day toothbrush was crafted in 1498 in China. Its bristles were made from hair from hair taken from pigs attached to a bone or bamboo handle. The crude contraption provided sophisticated enough to be adopted by the European market. When it was brought from China to Europe, the design was altered. Softer horsehair or even feathers were used instead.

During the 1900s, celluloid handles gradually replaced the bone handles; natural bristles were also replaced by nylon. The first electric toothbrush was created in 1939.

Today, both manual and electric toothbrushes come in many shapes, sizes and colours and we are spoilt for choice. While some deem the quality of bristles as the deciding factor for their purchase, others are taken by designs and colours.

Where do designers get their inspiration and what are their guiding principles when it comes to designing toothbrushes?

Scandinavia's oldest toothbrush brand, Jordan of Norway, holds the honour of being the only dental oral care brand to receive the prestigious RedDot Award for design. What inspires them?

Each year, they produce four thematic designs, according to the four seasons of the year. They draw their inspiration from the myriad of colours and crispness of the Norwegian landscape; the fresh and clean Nordic and Arctic nature are truly inspiring for them.

Favourite time of the year is autumn when you find beautiful motifs in the flora preparing for winter, and early spring when small buds and leaves prepare for the new life!

The Norwegian love the outdoor life. Therefore, their designs, they try to capture and essence of the outdoor and bring nature indoor via the designs for the toothbrushes. Also, when it comes to design, a bit of humour is never wrong.

According to Merete Nes, R&D Manager from Lilleborg AS Norway's Design and Packing division, over and over pretty motifs and bright colours, other factors have to be taken into consideration as well when it comes to toothbrush designs - texture of the bristles, sizes of the heads and shapes of the handles.

Lilleborg AS is the parent company of Jordan.

Jordan, Norway's oldest oral hygiene brand, is kicking off its Scandinavian Technology Campaign with the introduction of the Jordan Target Sensitive toothbrush.

The latest addition to Jordan's extensive range of dental care, Jordan's new Target Sensitive Toothbrush is designed to give your teeth a superior clean feeling.
Target Sensitive has 80% more bristles*; giving that superior clean and excellent massaging power to the gums. Its ultra-soft and gentle slim 0.01mm bristles provide extra cleaning power to those that need a deep and effective brush. The unique "instrument-like" ergonomic precision handle design provides exceptional access to the entire mouth, even the hard-to-reach places that a regular toothbrush cannot reach.

In line with the brand's Scandinavian Technology initiative, Target Sensitive toothbrushes come in stylish purple and prestige black. Each handle is engraved with a beautiful Scandinavian pattern. There are four design to choose for your brushing pleasure.

*80% more bristle than one of the leading toothbrush brands in the tapered bristles segment.

Oral-Hygiene - teaching them young

Being mommy of two boys I know the important of teaching young children on oral hygiene. It is estimated that 90% of the world's population will suffer from oral diseases of one form or another in their lifetime. Many of them can be avoided if sufficient focus is given to oral hygiene.

Oral health is an important aspect of general health in infants and children. It impacts the quality of life and health outcomes of these young ones when they grow to adulthood.

Do you know that in Malaysia, statistics have shown that 70% of 12 year old children suffer from dental decay? In a nation survey carried out in 2005, it was revealed that among five year old children, 8 out of 10 suffer from dental caries. The same study also showed that, on average, every five year old child has 6 out of 20 milk teeth affected by caries.

Dental caries is a childhood disease that is caused by a combination of infection and diet. Children are susceptible to various dental diseases which, if left untreated, may impair their qualify of life.

Children can start to lose their milk teeth at about six. These milk teeth act as placeholders for permanent tooth and, as such, must be taken care of a to protect it from prematurely falling out. If a milk tooth is lost too early, an adjacent tooth may move into the space, causing cooked and overcrowded permanent teeth and other substantial future problems.

My son is 4 years old, he's using the Step 2.

I am sure all mothers are undoubtedly the primary source of early education in children on good oral health. We can begin by teaching them how to properly care for their tooth by brushing and flossing.

Brushing is possible as soon as the child has a tooth. Brushing should be done two times a day, after meals and with a pea size of fluoride toothpaste on a child-sized toothbrush with soft bristles. 
Flossing should be performed once a day. These acts are the foundations for strong and healthy teeth. 


My eldest son is 9 years old, so he's using Step 3.

Children may be encouraged to brush teeth if they are given toothbrushes with neon colours, cartoon characters and squishy handles. Specially - designed children's toothbrushes help a child to feel that brushing is fun.

Jordan, a Norwegian dental hygiene brand, has in place its Step-by-Step children's toothbrushes series for babies and children to entice the young ones to form a good oral hygiene habits from an early age.

 The design of the toothbrushes differ according to the age groups taking into consideration the teeth and gum development of the child.

Step 1, which caters to toddlers between 0-2 years, has a small head with soft bristles with strong stimulating colours to capture the child's attention. Recognising that small children can have irritated gums, the handle of the toothbrush doubles up as a teething ring.

Step 2, is specially designed to clean milk teeth in children age between 3 - 5 years. At this age children do not necessarily understand the importance of brushing their teeth, and it can be a challenge to explain and to motivate the child.

Step 3, is to meet the challenging oral needs of 6 - 9 years old children. The challenge at this age is that, with both milk and permanent teeth, the positioning of the teeth may be uneven. The quality and placement of the bristles and head become even more important. 

The integrated 'solo brush' reaches molars and hard-to-reach spaces between the teeth and gums ensuring that no teeth or surfaces need to be forgotten. 

Jordan is an award winning oral care brand since 1927. Having rewarded the prestigious global RedDot award, Jordan is one of the oldest oral and dental hygiene brands in the world. It designs and produces toothbrushes for the whole family, giving them clean, healthy and beautiful teeth. 

So, the next time you pick up a toothbrush bear in mind that it is much more than a handle with a bristles at the end. A whole lot of thought has gone into its making. The correct and continuous use of this little device is what help you keep your set of teeth sparkling and intact for a long time to come.

Insidious 3 movie review

Today it's my day, this morning after send my son for tuition I headed to Aeon Big to park my car. I walked to Subang Parade to MBO Cinema. The movie ticket with RM11.50, I used my MBO card to purchase a ticket.

Insidious 3 is scary movie indeed, I saw a dad brought his 2 young children to watch the movie together. Quinn is sad that her mom passed away 1 and half years ago, she wanted to seek for her mom to ask her some questions. Sadly, she summoned the wrong person which followed her back from darkness. Quinn has a brother that she needs to help her dad to raise. One day she went for audition and since then she didn't feel that she's alone anymore. She thought it was her mom that followed her but it wasn't it was a man. Who is the man? He's not human.

Quinn has blog to blog too, but his dad didn't understand what it is as he saw her take photo of the food before eating it. I am sure you'll find this similar.

I like the actress Lin Shaye, she's acting as Elise. Elise has lost her husband a year ago as he suicide. She went into darkness trying to search for him, he wasn't there and a woman in the darkness followed her back. So now I know why in Insidious 2, what actually happened to Elise in the end.

So how about Quinn, who is going to save her? What happened to other neighbour that live in the building? Something weird about the building that we didn't get enough info, there are just many cracks on the wall. An empty apartment, what's the story behind it? There's nothing to say about this at all. So there's a few death happened in this building, is it coincidence?

If you like to watch horror movie, do not miss out this movie and of course watch Insidious 1 and 2 as well.

NATIONAL HEART INSTITUTE STAFF COMPETE IN A LOW FAT, HEART HEALTHY COOKING COMPETITION, JOINTLY ORGANISED WITH PHILIPS MALAYSIA


Emcee of the day Alan Bligh

FANS of deep-fried food know this cooking method is bad news for their hearts. However, using Philips Airfryer’s rapid air technology means they can now enjoy the taste of their favourite deep-fried dishes without using extra oil in the preparation. This was the focus of the “FATCHECK for a Healthy Heart” cooking competition jointly organised by the National Heart Institute (IJN) and Philips Malaysia, at AEON Big Mid Valley on last Saturday.

Twelve teams, comprising IJN staff, as well as their family members and friends, had participated in the preliminary round of the cooking competition at AEON BiG Subang Jaya on May 16. The teams were tasked with whipping up a low fat nutritious dish in 30 minutes, using a mystery ingredient, and prepared using the Philips Airfryer.


Six winning teams were then selected to compete at the grand cook-off today, and this time the teams had the greater challenge of cooking a complete meal based on recipes they were required to submit beforehand.


 It was a busy Saturday morning where the teams get started cooking and the judges having hard time to decide who to win.



The cook-off was judged by Mary Easaw, IJN Chief Dietitian; Foong Pui Hing, IJN Principal Dietitian; Chef Marina Mustafa cookbook author and food stylist and Muhammad Ali Jaleel, Muhammad Ali Jaleel, Country Manager for Philips Group of Companies in Malaysia and General Manager, Consumer Lifestyle for Philips Malaysia. The teams were judged based on the nutritional value, taste, hygiene, creativity and presentation of the competing recipes.


According to Easaw, the competition was intended to show the public they can enjoy low fat heart healthy diet without skimping on taste. She said, “We Malaysians tend to use a lot of cooking oil in our daily cooking as we have a tendency to prefer fried food. The high dietary fat intake raises triglycerides and total cholesterol namely LDL, which result in clogged arteries and increased risk of heart attack and stroke. Now, they can enjoy their favourite fried foods using this low-fat cooking method.”


“As the leading heart institute in the region, IJN continues to promote heart health awareness among Malaysians. This is in line with Phillips mission to promote healthier and sustainable lifestyle and we are happy to work with them towards a mutual cause,” she said.

Mr Ali Jaleel (Philips Malaysia Country Manager)


Mr Jaleel said it was an honour to work with IJN for the FATCHECK for a Healthy Heart community education programme. “At Philips, we strive to improve lives through innovation that we incorporate into our appliances. While we are sharing information on how technology makes it easier to stay healthy, IJN’s medical and dietetic expertise on heart health is adding great value to the programme, allowing the public to have deeper understanding on eating healthier,” he said.


Ali added that the Philips Airfryer is indeed ideal for people who want to enjoy their food while maintaining a healthy heart. The unique Rapid Air technology, the Philips Airfryer allows for the excess oil and fat from food to be drained during cooking, and used to cook the same food, which then enables cooking without adding lots of extra oil. Thus, consumers can lose the oil, but not the taste,” he said.


For most of the IJN staff who took part in this competition, this was their first time using the Philips Airfryer. Recipes produced showcased the versatility of the appliance in grilling, baking and even roasting food healthier, faster and more conveniently.
