Editor’s Note:
Hello, readers! This has been an exciting week, what with all the drama around the Malaysian Couple who managed to make everyone laugh with their facebook interaction with Zalora. There’s even an update to this where Zalora paid them a surprise visit! Not all social media fame is good however, when public reacted with outrage after finding out that the “Missing Boy” poster was actually just a school project that got out of hand. In Malaysia, we kick-started our first M’sianspiration weekly column featuring ordinary Malaysians with extraordinary dreams and lifestyles with this 25-year-old man building his own container home. We also have a new website to help jobseekers find their dream jobs and a list of ten bizzare things said by Malaysian leaders in 2014.
Meanwhile, Singaporeans were excited about the launch of the new website, SGAG, the 9GAG of Singapore. Google Play also released Singapore Best of 2014 but surprisingly, none of them are made in Singapore. Have a look and see what they are.
Futuristic technology are on the rise. We wrote about a bracelet that can project your phone’s screen onto your arm and makes your arm touchscreen! This week also marks our first week of voting for the Vulcan Reader’s Choice Award. Be sure to vote for your favorites!
