*JessC and Malaysian Diva Jee Unite in First Duet “Tak Terpisah” at ‘Dekati’ Album Launch — A Celebration of Unbreakable Bonds*

At the launch of her new album Dekati, Australia-based rock princess JessC took center stage with Malaysian pop diva Fauziah Latiff, known affectionately as Jee, for their debut duet performance of the emotionally powerful song “Tak Terpisah” (“Never Separated”). The event transcended cultural and ethnic boundaries, bringing a heartfelt message of unity, love, and resilience through music — a performance that brought the crowd to its feet with thunderous applause and cheers.

Even before its official release, the Dekati album has already gained immense traction. The music video for  5 songs has garnered over 6 million views on YouTube and is making waves in Indonesia, with numerous media outlets covering the story and conducting exclusive interviews.

The event kicked off with a cinematic medley of JessC’s music videos, including “Demi Impian,” “Dekati,” “Satu Suara Raya,” “Expose,” and the much-anticipated “Tak Terpisah.” Fans were visibly moved as scenes from the singer’s musical journey played across the screen.

But the true highlight of the evening was the live duet between JessC and Jee. Dressed in elegant white Malay traditional attire, JessC stood beside Jee, who donned a sleek ponytail and a commanding presence — the two looked as if they had stepped straight out of the album cover. Their harmonized voices delivered the poignant message of “Tak terpisah walau berbeza” (Never separated, even if we are different), touching hearts and uniting the audience in a moment of shared emotion. The performance concluded with fans presenting flowers and gifts, while Jee playfully turned the tables by pretending to be the event’s photographer, adding a joyful twist to the heartfelt moment.

“‘Dekati’ is a song about having the courage to face life’s challenges,” JessC shared onstage. She recalled her admiration for Jee dating back over a decade, especially after performing Jee’s iconic song “Dia.” Collaborating with her idol on their first duet was the fulfillment of a long-held dream.

“JessC’s beauty shines from within,” Jee said warmly. “The first time I heard the demo of ‘Tak Terpisah,’ I cried. The song has soul — it speaks of love, respect, togetherness, and life. It’s a song that resonates with everyone.”

Jee also expressed how the song served as a reminder to appreciate love, friendship, and family amid the hustle of daily life. JessC, ever grateful and lighthearted, revealed that Jee had recently wrapped filming the drama Sri Kandi, where she played a queen. During filming, Jee had a minor accident falling off a horse, which alarmed the crew, but she fortunately emerged unscathed.

Looking ahead, JessC teased that two more duet projects with Jee are in the works, including an upbeat track titled “Kawan Baik” (“Best Friends”).

When asked how she balances her busy schedule, Jee shared, “Everyone’s life is different. What matters most is knowing how to stand back up after a fall, and respecting life and one another.” JessC added, “Don’t fear failure. Don’t let problems defeat you. Life is hard, but we must face it bravely and learn from every fall.”

In a lighthearted exchange, JessC asked Jee, “How would you rate my singing?” to which Jee laughed and responded, “You’ve improved a lot — we’ve successfully blended our voices.” JessC also proudly showed off a handmade necklace crafted by Jee, symbolizing their growing friendship and creative bond.

The “Tak Terpisah” music video was shot in Malaysia, produced by an Australian team, and directed by an American filmmaker. Their collaboration traces back to a concert ten years ago, where Jee appeared as a guest and the two artists connected through music.

Today, the Dekati album is not only captivating audiences in Malaysia but also sparking a wave of excitement across Indonesia. This cross-cultural success story stands as a testament to the power of friendship, mutual admiration, and musical harmony between two talented women who dared to dream — and sing — together.

KAO Malaysia's "Skin Protection, Life Perfection" Campaign Champion Lifelong Skin Health Starting From Youth

KAO Malaysia, in collaboration with Watsons, launched the “Skin Protection, Life Perfection” campaign yesterday, aimed at encouraging Malaysians to adopt skin protection as a foundation for lifelong health and confidence. To support this goal, the campaign introduces a collaborative ecosystem by combining Bioré skincare solutions with Watsons’ rewards-based programs, and includes a 1% sales donation drive benefitting local research to advance awareness and practices around skin protection and lifelong skin health.

Yang Berhormat Puan Jamaliah ​Binti Jamaluddin, Selangor State EXCO Public Health & Environment  

“At KAO, we believe that skin protection is more than just a daily routine – it’s the foundation of a life well lived. Through this campaign, we want to remind Malaysians that every act of care, no matter how small, can shape a more radiant and confident tomorrow. With Bioré at the heart of this initiative, we’re proud to champion a message that blends science, self-love, and the simple joy of healthy skin. This initiative reflects KAO’s broader vision of helping Malaysians lead beautiful, healthy lives – a philosophy rooted in our Kirei Lifestyle Plan commitment.” said Mr. Yamazaki Hirobumi, President of KAO Malaysia.

Skin Protection, Life Perfection

To kick off the campaign, an event was organised featuring thought leaders and industry experts. The session commenced with an insightful keynote by Associate Professor ChM. Dr. Noraini from the Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Science, Universiti Malaya, who presented on “The Science Behind Effective Skincare Ingredients: Why Formulations Matter?”. In her presentation, she elaborated scientifically on the long-term impact of skin protection on dermatological health. This was followed by a live demonstration conducted by Dr. Lim Ing Kien, Doctor of Medicine, from Ventamin, who presented customised skincare regimens tailored to different age groups. Together, the presentations reinforced the campaign’s core message: healthy skin begins at a young age and requires a tailored approach throughout life’s various stages.

With daily exposure to UV rays, heat, and dust posing risks to both skin health and confidence, KAO is drawing on Bioré’s trusted expertise to provide a skincare regime that not only protects and nourishes, but also empowers individuals to pursue life goals with fewer worries. The Bioré skincare range champions a simple yet effective “Cleanse. Protect.” approach, combining gentle cleansing with high- performance UV-blocking formulations to build skin resilience day by day. This commitment supports users to not only maintain healthy skin, but to live life with clarity, comfort, and confidence in pursuit of what matters most.

Encouraging Healthier Habits, Together

“Watsons is proud to partner with KAO Malaysia on the “Skin Protection, Life Perfection” campaign, which aligns closely with our mission to make health and wellness accessible to all. With our extensive network of stores and online platforms, loyalty program, and ongoing Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) collaborations, including recent initiatives with University Malaya, we’re confident we can help amplify KAO Malaysia’s message and drive positive habits among Malaysians. Together, we look forward to empowering more individuals to take proactive steps in caring for their skin, now and in the long term.” said Caryn Loh, Managing Director of Watsons Malaysia and COO Health & Beauty Asia of AS Watson.

As the official retail partner, Watsons is extending the campaign through a series of customer incentives that promote everyday skin protection. From May to August 2025, consumers can earn rewards through Watsons’ loyalty programs:

· W Rewards: Redeem a Bioré Guard MOS Block 50g with 500 Watsons points

· E-Stamp Program: Collect stamps to redeem Bioré products including the Bioré Guard MOS Block 50g, Bioré UV Aqua Rich Aqua Protect Mist 60ml and Tone Up Essence 70g

The campaign also reflects KAO Malaysia’s broader commitment to community health, following ongoing public awareness efforts carried out in collaboration with key partners. Notably, this includes the “Guard Our Future” project – a multi-initiative dengue prevention campaign that encompassed educational workshops, product donations and gotong-royong cleanups in Selangor. These efforts were supported by various stakeholders, including the Selangor State Government, whose Public Health Committee has championed proactive dengue management across the state. Their presence at this launch event points to a shared interest in promoting public well-being through preventive care.

Sensodyne Tackles Widespread Tooth Sensitivity in Malaysia with Fresh Mint Launch and Nationwide "A Happy Mouth is… a Happy Mind" Campaign in conjunction with World Oral Health Day!

KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA, 10 April 2025: A new survey* conducted by Haleon, a global leader in consumer health, reveals a significant public health concern in Malaysia: tooth sensitivity. The survey of 248 Malaysians showed that a staggering 69% experience regular tooth sensitivity, with 61.8% enduring the discomfort rather than seeking dental treatment. Sensodyne, Malaysia's #1 sensitivity toothpaste brand*, is re-launching its Fresh Mint toothpaste with a new and improved formula that provides long-lasting relief and encourages Malaysians to stop enduring and start living life worry-free from sensitivity – because Why Tahan?

The survey, conducted among the 18-40 age-group, showed that younger generations are highly affected by this issue. A total of 38.4% of the respondents were aged 26-40, while 34.6% belonged to the 18–25 age category, indicating a need for an increased awareness and effective solutions for sensitive teeth across all age groups.

This common condition disrupts the everyday habits of most Malaysians, with cold foods (58.5%) being the leading cause of sensitivity, followed by sweets and hot drinks, based on the survey. These findings highlight how tooth sensitivity prevents individuals from fully enjoying everyday pleasures. Alarmingly, only 13.1% actively address sensitivity by brushing their teeth to relieve discomfort, reflecting low awareness of best practices.

Mr Law Chen, Marketing Director - Malaysia, Singapore & Brunei sharing insights at Sensodyne’s World Oral Health Day 2025: A Happy Mouth Is... a Happy Mind! event launch.

In response to this widespread issue, Sensodyne has announced the launch of Sensodyne Fresh Mint. This new toothpaste, specially developed with an improved formula, provides lasting relief and allows Malaysians to live life without the fear of sensitivity. Sensodyne Fresh Mint offers a range of benefits to tackle sensitivity:

24-Hour Protection: With continued use and twice daily brushing, enjoy your favourite foods and drinks throughout the day without irritation. 

Lasting freshness: Sensodyne Fresh Mint with improved formulation provides lasting freshness with regular use.

Triple-Action Cleaning Technology: This innovative formula polishes teeth, removes surface stains, and brushes away bacteria for a cleaner, healthier smile.

Sensodyne’s effectiveness is further validated by a Real-World Evidence study published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health (IJERPH). The Dentine Hypersensitivity Experience Questionnaire (DHEQ) study identified that:

100% of regular Sensodyne users expressed daily satisfaction.

98% reported improvement in their sensitivity symptoms.

“Too many Malaysians endure the discomfort of tooth sensitivity, missing out on simple joys like a refreshing iced coffee or a scoop of ice cream. Instead of addressing the root cause, many wait for the pain to pass. These findings underscore the urgent need for effective solutions and greater awareness around sensitivity. That’s why Sensodyne, in collaboration with the Malaysian Dental Association, is intensifying efforts to raise awareness and promote early intervention – because if left untreated, sensitivity can lead to more serious dental issues,” shared Law Chen, Marketing Director at Haleon Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei.

Dr Mohd Salman bin Masri, a Periodontist representing Malaysian Dental Association (MDA) echoed this sentiment: “Tooth sensitivity is more than just a minor inconvenience – it can signal deeper oral health issues. Yet, many Malaysians endure it without realising how much it affects their daily lives. According to a real-life study recently published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 93% of respondents said sensitivity takes the joy out of eating and drinking, impacting both physical comfort and emotional well-being. That’s why it’s crucial to address sensitivity early – right when you first feel it. Ignoring it could lead to bigger problems down the line."

To commemorate World Oral Health Day, Sensodyne is launching a nationwide campaign “A Happy Mouth is…A Happy Mind” to unite Malaysians. As part of this initiative, Sensodyne is collaborating with the Malaysian Dental Association to offer one month of complimentary dental check-ups across more than 500 clinics in Malaysia from 21 April to 21 May 2025. 

Sensodyne Fresh Mint is available nationwide at pharmacies, dental clinics, minimarkets, supermarkets, and hypermarkets and provision stores

Crispy Chocolate, Malaysia’s home-grown chocolate brand marks its 50th anniversary

Crispy Chocolate, a popular Malaysian chocolate snack, which is marketed to 21 countries, is celebrating its 50th anniversary.  

 

To mark this historical milestone, the Network Foods Industries Group is launching a national roadshow that initially kicks off in the east coast States and Klang valley.

 

The Network Foods group is a member of the Pan Malaysia Corporation Berhad (PMC). Founded in 1973, Crispy Chocolate has withstood the test of time. Its chocolatey crispy bite has been an unforgettable part of sweet memories for several Malaysian generations.

 

Commenting on Crispy Chocolate’s 50th anniversary, PMC Executive Director, Andrew Khoo, said: “For a home-grown chocolate brand to celebrate this milestone is a very proud moment for us. It is a testament to Crispy’s enduring brand value in a competitive field dominated by established international brands.

 

Khoo noted that, internationally, fewer than 10 chocolate brands have had a history of 50 years or longer.

 

Crispy chocolate owes its success to its unique malty taste made of the finest malt, quality cocoa and with oven-roasted rice cereal, making it not just another tasty snack, but wholesome as well.”

Network Foods asserts that Crispy chocolate is classified as a health snack containing low sugar content and dietary fibre. 

 

As a testament to its healthful quality, Crispy Chocolate has won the Best Kid Snack in the Natural Health Readers’ Choice Award 2022 and the Cocoa Industry special award from the Malaysian Cocoa Board.

How to Choose a Unique Engagement Ring That Reflects Her Individuality

A ring symbolizes eternal love and commitment, so finding the perfect one is essential. Take cues from your significant other’s style and jewelry choices to find a unique engagement ring she’ll love. Whether it’s an unusual center stone shape or intricate metalwork, there are plenty of ways to make an engagement ring unique. Here are a few of our favorite ideas to get you started:

Choose a Stone That Reflects Her Personality

Choosing a ring that speaks to her personality is one of the most essential parts of buying an engagement ring. It can be done in many ways. For instance, you can get her a ring based on something meaningful in her life or special to her. Another way to add personal touches to her ring is with intricate metalwork. It includes etchings, carvings, intricate milgrained, filigreed, and ribbed detailing. Finally, you can use her favorite colors to create a unique ring that speaks to her soul. Whether in bold or pastel hues, it’s the perfect way to show her how much you care!

Think Outside the Box

While diamonds are timeless, unique engagement rings for women offer a more personalized style for any couple. For example, bohemian brides may love a vintage-inspired piece that requires scouring estate sales for the right one; feminine girls can choose a stone cluster with unique cuts that speak to their natural beauty and aesthetic. For a truly unique ring, consider adding a pop of color. Sapphires, emeralds, rubies, and other colored gemstones add a splash of personality without the hefty price tag. To keep the ring a surprise, hide it in an out-of-the-way location like your tool kit (only use this method if she’s not handy with her hands) or box of holiday decorations. She’ll be doubly surprised when you pull it out! It will also help you avoid ring loss, a significant heartache for many couples.

Don’t Forget About Metalwork

Choosing an engagement ring is a big decision that will last your lifetime. That’s why it’s essential to take the time to consider what style suits her and who she is as a person. Metalwork is also worth considering, as it can creatively add details to the ring. From engraved names and dates to intricate filigree designs, there are so many ways to make her engagement ring unique. Finally, it’s a good idea to get input from other people in your life about the style of ring they think would suit her. It can help you narrow your options and find a unique ring for her.

Add a Pop of Color

If you want to add a touch of uniqueness to an engagement ring but aren’t ready to completely overhaul the design, consider adding a colored gemstone accent to her band. Alternatively, some people choose to purchase a new ring altogether. Diamonds are the traditional center stone choice for engagement rings, but there are many more options on the market. For example, a Montana sapphire is a perfect “something blue” for bohemian brides; emerald can signify good fortune; and rose quartz is a romantic option for feminine girls. Intricate metalwork is another element that can make an engagement ring stand out from the crowd. Look for a metal design that reflects her style or pays tribute to your relationship. For example, a floral or leaf inlay ring could perfectly symbolize your love.

Don’t Be Afraid to Go Big

Whether you’re shopping for yourself or your partner, there are several important factors to consider when choosing an engagement ring. After all, this is a significant monetary investment that will be worn for the rest of your lives together! Take note of your partner’s style, cherished jewelry pieces, and personal preferences. It will help you determine the ring that best suits your personality and lifestyle. For example, if your partner has a penchant for simple, elegant jewelry pieces, try browsing for rings with more intricate detailing or a halo design. It will give the ring an extra sparkle and radiance that will catch her eye! Also, don’t be afraid to explore unique shapes such as emerald cuts, hearts, and pear-shaped stones.
