Smackdown for Rosmah: Curtin withdraws use of the term FLOM in tradeoff with critics

‘first lady’ 

In a move bound to knock the wind out of the sails of Prime Minister Najib Razak's wife, Australia's Curtin University has apologized for referring to her as the First Lady of Malaysia, which according to the country's constitution is a title reserved for the Queen.

Curtin had made the mistake when it issued an honorary doctorate to the unpopular Rosmah Mansor. Although it did not say so, the university certainly got more than it bargained for when it recently awarded an honorary doctorate to her. Complaints flooded its Facebook page and the university was even accused of trying to gain favor or had accepted some form of bribe or other to grant Rosmah the PhD, and address her as the  First Lady of Malaysia.

Picture of car stuck on staircase goes viral

A picture of a parking attempt that misfired badly has spread like wildfire online.

The picture, which is still being shared on social media networks Facebook and Twitter, shows a Toyota stuck on a staircase.

It was first uploaded onto Facebook on Thursday evening. Since then, the picture has gathered over 1,000 likes and 800 plus shares.

Users were also vocal. 135 comments were posted. Some users criticised the driver while others wondered where this incident took place.


It was unlikely that this incident happened in Singapore as the green signboard visible on the left looked like it had some Chinese words. A user also pointed out that the carpark has a fire extinguisher, fire hose and fire buckets.


Did the driver mistake the staircase for a parking lot? Or was he trying for a shortcut? And which country did this happen in? Let us know in the comments.
