IRAMA RASA: A Sky-High Celebration of Heritage at Park Hyatt Kuala Lumpur

This February, Park Hyatt Kuala Lumpur invites guests to dine above the clouds with the unveiling of IRAMA RASA, a thoughtfully curated buffet dinner experience set against the breathtaking backdrop of Merdeka 118. Taking place from 23 February to 15 March 2026, IRAMA RASA transforms the Executive Salon on Level 98 into a refined culinary stage where Malaysian heritage meets global craftsmanship. Framed by panoramic city views and accompanied by live gamelan performances, the experience unfolds in an atmosphere of calm reflection and cultural resonance. At its heart, IRAMA RASA is a tribute to the rhythms of tradition — the stillness before sunrise, the warmth of gathering at dusk, and the quiet rituals that bring families and communities together. Through Park Hyatt Kuala Lumpur’s signature refinement, these narratives are translated into a dining journey rooted in memory, spice and shared moments. A Dialogue Between Heritage and Craft Presented as a curated à la minute buffet, IRAMA ...

Trust, Control, and Intelligence - Addressing the Real Concerns Around Agentic AI on Smartphones

 Agentic AI represents one of the most transformative shifts in artificial intelligence: systems that can plan, decide, and act autonomously to achieve goals. Unlike earlier generations of AI that responded only to direct prompts, agentic AI is proactive, it can anticipate needs, coordinate tasks, and take initiative on behalf of users. When this level of intelligence is embedded into something as personal and always-on as a smartphone, excitement naturally comes with concern. Smartphones are no longer just tools; they are extensions of our identities, holding our conversations, memories, schedules, financial information, and even health data. Why Agentic AI Raises New Concerns Unlike traditional AI that waits for instructions, agentic AI is designed to act independently within defined objectives. On a personal device, that autonomy introduces several legitimate concerns that go beyond typical discussions of AI accuracy or performance. Privacy & Data Exposure Agentic AI often r...

Proudly Owned by Malaysians: Samsung is Built On Trust

 The pride of ownership doesn’t need loud declarations when it is nurtured through trust, consistency and community. When a brand like Samsung resonates deeply with millions, what matters more than celebrity endorsements are the real stories that celebrate people, progress and purpose. To underline the impact Samsung has had on Malaysia for 35 years, the company has released a brand film featuring its spokespersons: a diverse group of Malaysians who are proud Samsung Galaxy owners. With these Malaysians, their stories are not just testimonials; they are a reflection of Samsung’s commitment to innovation, inclusivity and connection. Innovation that shapes everyday life Over the decades since its inception in 1969 and its debut in Malaysia in 1991, Samsung has continuously enhanced everyday life with technology that is both ground-breaking and accessible. For Malaysians, choosing Samsung is not about chasing trends. It’s a decision rooted in knowing your device will keep up with you ...

Galaxy A07 5G A Phone That Lasts When Life Doesn’t Slow Down

 “Eh, need to charge again so fast ah?” We’ve all been there. You buy a smartphone with an impressive battery capacity, expecting long hours of use without worrying about charging. But sooner than you expect, you frequently find yourself fretting about low-battery warnings barely halfway through a day’s use. That’s exactly the problem the Galaxy A07 5G is designed to solve. With a massive 6,000mAh battery, it is optimized to deliver up to 29 hours of video playback. But wait, what is mAh? The value in mAh tells you how much power the battery can store and how long it can power your device before it needs to be charged again. We’ll spare you the technicalities — just remember that generally, the higher the mAh, the more hours of use the battery can sustain. You’d be right to say that something like 6,000mAh is impressive, but there are two common misconceptions about higher battery capacities. Bigger isn’t always better Myth #1: A bigger mAh always means longer use and playback. The...

Coming Soon: A New Layer of Privacy Five Years in the Making

 Our phones are our most personal space, but we use them in the least private places. On the bus, in the elevator, and wherever we’re waiting in line, our digital laundry gets aired in plain view. And as phones become more tailored to our routines and preferences, concerns about privacy are only growing.  That’s why Samsung will soon unveil a new layer of privacy to shield your phone from shoulder surfing wherever you go. You’ll have the space to check your messages or enter a password on a packed commute without thinking twice about who might be watching. PINs and passwords remain hidden from people nearby, even in crowded public settings. Flexible Protection Built Over Years  Not everyone needs the same level of privacy. This new layer gives you the choice to decide what works best for you. You can customise it to raise your guard with specific apps, or when entering access details for more private areas of your phone. With multiple settings for adjusting visibility, yo...

Get Ramadan-Ready with Shopee’s Bazar Hebat Ramadan

 By the time Chinese New Year arrives, the dining table becomes more than a place to eat — it becomes a symbol of reunion, gratitude, and hope for the year ahead.

Crisp vegetables and a balanced dressing ensure freshness without overwhelming sweetness, making this a refined ...

Unlocking the Future: Samsung's Vision for Agentic AI in the Mobile Ecosystem

 The next monumental leap forward lies in the realm of Agentic AI, a paradigm shift that promises to redefine how we interact with our devices and the world around us. This isn't just about smarter software; it's about intelligent agents that anticipate needs, act autonomously, and truly empower our users. What is Agentic AI? At its core, Agentic AI refers to an intelligence capable of perceiving their environment, making decisions, and executing actions to achieve specific goals, often without constant human intervention. Think beyond a simple voice assistant responding to commands; imagine a proactive digital companion that understands habits, preferences and takes initiative. They are, in essence, digital assistants. Now imagine Agentic AI implemented in mobile devices, the first of its kind. The potential applications of Agentic AI are vast and incredibly exciting for the mobile technology space. There is a future where our devices, powered by these intelligent agents, seam...
