A man was photographed fondling the breasts of a woman while driving on a highway in China.

The image - captured by a traffic enforcement camera - was supposed to be confidential, but was leaked to the Internet in late August.

He has done it again. Pasir Mas MP and Perkasa chief Ibrahim Ali stirred up laughter around the country and throughout cyberspace when he was snapped snoring in Parliament on Wednesday.

And he did not deny it, putting it down to the cough mixture he had been taking.

"I must have dozed off for a couple of minutes, but the picture has been published on the Internet as though I sleep all the time in the Dewan Rakyat. Even US President Barack Obama must have seen that picture of me!," Bernama reported him as saying.

It has become the tradition for MCA to use hudud to attack Pakatan Rakyat especially now when we are in the last lap to the 13th general election. Hudud is of course the part of the Islamic criminal law that pertains to 6 specific punishments that includes amputation of limbs, whipping and stoning to death.

But this time around, the shocking thing is how the Chinese community reacted in the scocial media network. No one rushed to condemn hudud, no one took pity on the MCA. On the contrary, they attacked MCA with gusto, hurling foul words at its political hypocrisy and cheating ways.

It is not surprising then that MCA vice president Gan Ping Sieu has quietly dropped his debate challenge to Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng over the hudud issue.

Unfazed by his party's disapproval, Umno veteran Tengku Razaleigh Hamzah has given the thumbs to the “Undilah” video, produced to remaind Malaysians to vote in the coming general election.

The video, which acknowledes that Malaysia had "problems", was taken off the air by the Information ministry through industry regulator, MCMC, on the grounds that it contained "subliminal messages".

A woman who killed her newlywed husband and chopped and cooked his body parts over Thanksgiving weekend in 1991 was denied her second bid for parole on Wednesday.

Parole commissioners rejected Omaima Nelson's request for freedom following a five-and-a-half-hour hearing at the Central California Women's Facility in Chowchilla, where she has been serving a life sentence.

Mahathir Mohamad is not a man to sit quietly in the wings when something pricks his interest. Upon retiring in 2003, Mahathir did remain in the shadows, quietly stocking his personal book library and even opening a bakery in Langkawi. But it wasn't long before he jumped in again and as usual, he chose the deep end of the pool.

His luckless opponent was none other than Abdullah Badawi, his chosen successor. But cordial though their relationship had been, when Badawi began dismantling several of Mahathir's high profile projects, the older man didn't like it and made it known that he wasn't happy anymore. But dismantling the projects was not enough for the Abdullah, who was then keen to polish his reformist badge. Badawi did the unthinkable, he even released Mahathir's arch enemy, Anwar Ibrahim, whom Mahathir had taken great pains to put in jail. Then the final icing on the cake, Badawi charged Mahathir’s long time friend, Eric Chia, for criminal breach of trust.

A beggar threw her six-month-old baby boy into the sea to avoid being detained by the enforcement officers during an anti-vagrancy operation here today in Sabah, Malaysia.

Tawau Welfare Department assistant director Asnah Kassim who headed the two-hour operation, said, however, the baby was rescued by the officers.

"Three other little children of beggars managed to escape being detained," she told reporters after the operation.

Asnah also said that the operation was carried out to provide assistance to the beggars and at the same time, to act on complaints received from public against the beggars.

It was an advertisement designed to grab attention, but it has raised plenty of eyebrows in the process.

The Miss Wagga Quest in Australia's New South Wales has advertised a ''topless'' car wash this Saturday as part of its fund-raising programme.

But the word topless isn't what it seems.

"It means the girls won't actually wash the tops of the cars, they will only wash from the windows down," Miss Wagga Quest Committee chairperson Amanda Gleeson said.

A Singaporean mum who won Miss Erotica title in New Zealand has stated that she wants to be a porn star.

Ms Audrey Tan, 27, became the first Asian to be voted in August as the most popular sex siren for her work as a nude model in New Zealand.

The single mother of two children - aged four and eight - beat eight other contestants in a contest organised by adult-theme events organiser Erotica Lifestyles Expo.

But as far as her mother in Singapore knows, Ms Tan is working in a university in New Zealand, reported The New Paper.
