FunPark Gamuda Luge Gardens Prices 2026: Merdeka RM15 Pass Is Dead, Rides From RM8 and a Free Birthday Buy-1-Free-1
The Go Unlimited! Merdeka FunPark Day Pass ended on 31 August 2026 and GL Play has taken its page down.

7 Family-Friendly Things To Do in Labuan 2026 — Two Free Museums, an RM3 Bird Park, and What the Boat to Pulau Papan Really Costs
Labuan is small enough to cover in two days with kids, and cheaper than almost any other Malaysian family destination — the two best indoor stops cost nothing at all. We re-read the Department of Museums Malaysia listings (updated 24 August 2026), Labuan Tourism's own guides and Google Maps' live hours on 27 August 2026, and corrected two things this island's listicles keep getting wrong: you do NOT need a licensed tour agent to visit Kampung Patau-Patau (it is connected to shore by road, free, with no gate and no ticket), and the boat to Pulau Papan is arranged at the Sea Sports Complex jetty for roughly RM30–50 per person shared, or RM200–400 for a private charter. Labuan Bird Park — 600-plus birds in three geodesic domes, free-roaming peacocks and ostriches, RM1 feed packs at the gate — is the paid attraction most family guides leave out, and it opens at 2pm on Mondays rather than 9am.

Padini Is Clearing Out The Spring Kuching From RM9 Before It Shuts for Renovation
Padini Concept Store at The Spring Kuching started a renovation clearance on 10 September 2026 with stock from RM9, then closes temporarily for renovation. Padini has published no end date and no product list, and the poster's fine print is the whole rulebook: only valid at The Spring Kuching, no reservation, no refund, while stocks last. We read Padini's own store locator and its online catalogue this run. Only three of the 131 items on Padini's Concept Store page cost under RM20, and once this shop shuts, Kuching is left with a single Padini Concept Store.
Ayam Brand's RM150,000 Beli & Menang Runs to 31 October: Spend Past RM100 on One Receipt and It Counts for Nothing
Ayam Brand is running a nationwide Beli & Menang contest from 1 September to 31 October 2026 with RM150,000 of prizes, headed by a Proton e.MAS 5 Premium Spec worth RM78,450. Buy RM20 of participating Ayam Brand products in one receipt, photograph it and upload it on the contest page. We read all sixteen clauses of the official terms this run, in both languages, and the rule that decides everything is buried in clause 6: every RM20 on a receipt earns one serial number, and each receipt is capped at five. RM100 is therefore the ceiling. The organiser's own example shows a RM187.50 receipt earning the same five chances as a RM100 one, so RM87.50 of that shop bought nothing. Three more things the poster does not tell you: the weekly prize count on the artwork does not match the weekly schedule printed beside it, the Malay and English terms disagree in three places, and only ten named product ranges qualify.
Working on Malaysia Day 2026: What the Employment Act Pays You, and the RM4,000 Line That Switches It Off
Malaysia Day falls on Wednesday 16 September 2026, and it is one of only five public holidays the Employment Act 1955 makes compulsory by name. If your employer requires you to work that day, section 60D(3) says you get your holiday pay plus two days' wages at the ordinary rate, and it applies even if you work one hour. Overtime beyond your normal hours on that day is at least three times your hourly rate. But the First Schedule to the same Act switches section 60D(3) off entirely for anyone whose wages exceed four thousand ringgit a month, unless they fall into one of five listed categories, and the Act does not extend to Sabah or Sarawak at all. Here is the actual text, and where it stops applying.
