From Rags To Riches: The True Inspirational Origin Story Of Malaysia’s Ramly Burger |

Life isn’t easy and there are days we just feel like giving up. Sometimes we just a need an inspirational story to keep us going. There’s a lot of books, movies and TV series out there where the main character achieved their goal in the end.
While fiction can help, maybe all we need is 1 true story about someone who went from rags to riches to really get us motivated. From being rejected from a loan to start his own business to now exceeding RM1 billion in annual sales, here’s the story about the founder of popular burger brand, Ramly Burger.
Ramly Bin Mokni was born in Tanjung Piandang, Perak and raised in Sekinchan with his 16 siblings. Once he was old enough, he moved to Kuala Lumpur to find a job. How did the idea of owning a burger business come about? It was actually when a customer asked him back in 1978.
When Ramly was working in a supermarket, a customer asked him if there were burger patties made by a bumiputera as it wasn’t very popular back in those days, plus people weren’t very sure if the burger meats were halal. That ignited an idea in Ramly.
He then decided to create his own halal burger meat recipe with his wife, Shala Siah Binti Abdul Manap. Ramly went to apply for a RM7,000 loan at MARA (Majlis Amanah Rakyat) to start his business but sadly he was rejected. Instead, he used his own savings of RM2,000.

KUALA LUMPUR – Malaysia obtained a lower score in the Transparency International (TI) Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) 2022, garnering 47 out of 100 points, dropping from 48 points the previous year.
The country’s CPI ranking has also improved by an inch, from 62 last year to 61, according to the graft watchdog’s CPI report published today.
For further context, Malaysia scored 51 points in 2020 and 53 points in 2019, showing a downward trend of deteriorating ranking for the last three years.
The CPI ranks 180 countries and territories by their perceived levels of public sector corruption on a scale of zero (highly corrupt) to 100 (very clean).

“Instead of attempts to take Selangor, fix Kelantan” Netizens told PAS |

NETIZENS are advising the PAS to fix Kelantan and make it into a new Selangor instead of focusing their efforts on “overthrowing” the current ruling class in the richest state in Malaysia.
They call the efforts by the PAS to win in Selangor an attempt to “Kelantanise” the state, which is spoiling it.
PAS and Perikatan Nasional (PN) have started an offensive in Selangor in an attempt to take the state in the next state elections, which are slated to take place by June this year.
The PAS strategy includes ongoing criticism of the Selangor government, a focus on what they perceive to be problems in the state, and mobilising their troops online to disseminate the apparent “breakdowns” on social media.
