Enough about winning dream cars; how about winning a dream bike instead? Shell Malaysia is giving you a chance to win a Ducati Monster worth RM60,000. And to sweeten the deal, a VIP trip to watch the Spanish MotoGP in November 2012 is thrown into the mix as well.
So here’s how to win it. Buy a one-litre pack of Shell Advanced Ultra 4T, 4X7 4T, AX5 4T, VSX 2T or SX 2T motorcycle oil. You’ll find a nine-digit unique code inside the front label of each pack, which gives you one chance to enter the Shell Advance ‘Key to Freedom’ contest.

Suaram menggesa kerajaan menjelaskan peranan Terasasi (Hong Kong) Sdn Bhd yang didakwa menjual rahsia negara kepada syarikat Perancis berhubung urusniaga RM4 bilion untuk membeli kapal selam Scorpene.
“Setakat ini, peranan Terasasi masih belum dijelaskan di Parlimen Malaysia.
“Kerajaan Malaysia perlu menjelaskan perkara ini dan peranan yang dimainkan Abdul Razak Baginda dalam transaksi (melibatkan kertas penilaian Scorpene),” kata pengarah Suaram Kua Kia Soong.
Abdul Razak dan bapanya merupakan pengarah Terasasi, sebuah syarikat yang muncul dalam siasatan Suaram ke atas syarikat pembina kapal Perancis, DCNS, dalam kes penjualan dua kapal selam Scorpene kepada Malaysia.
Terasasi didakwa menerima sejumlah 36 juta euro (RM142 juta) daripada DCNS – antara lainnya untuk ‘jualan’ laporan sulit melibatkan penilaian tentera laut Malaysia ke atas pesanan untuk kapal selam itu.
Kua dalam satu emel kepada Malaysiakini semalam berkata, satu inkuiri perlu dibuat ke atas dakwaan serius itu.
GEORGETOWN 3 Jun: Arahan diberikan kepada Gabenor Bank Negara, Tan Sri Jaafar Hussein untuk mengundurkan diri ekoran krisis kerugian RM30 bilion akibat urusniaga pertukaran asing pada 1992, kata Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
Namun begitu, kata Anwar, Tun Mahathir Mohamad selaku perdana menteri ketika itu mempertahankan skandal berkenaan, meskipun ia menyebabkan negara menanggung kerugian.
“Setelah lebih 20 tahun isu kerugian wang yang amat besar ini tidak mendapat tindakan yang sewajarnya dari pihak pemerintah yang diterajui oleh Barisan Nasional.
“Mereka sentiasa berasa selesa walaupun negara mengalami kerugian dalam transaksi tersebut,” kata Anwar ketika menjadi panel dalam Forum Skandal Forex Bank Negara, anjuran Penang Institute, di Dewan Sri Pinang, semalam.
Anwar juga menegaskan bahawa individu utama dalam kes tersebut ialah bekas menteri kewangan, Tun Daim Zainuddin dan juga Tan Sri Nor Mohamed Yakcop yang mengetuai jabatan perdagangan mawatang di Bank Negara ketika itu.
Mantan Timbalan Gabenor Bank Negara, Dr.Rosli Yaakop, antara salah seorang panel dalam forum yang dikendalikan oleh Julian Candiah itu.
Anwar yang juga bekas Timbalan Perdana Menteri dan Menteri Kewangan berkata, kerajaan menyatakan kerugian itu berlaku ‘di atas kertas sahaja’ dan desakan supaya melantik sebuah Suruhanjaya Diraja juga tidak diendahkan.
“Ini mempamerkan wajah sebenar penyangak dan mereka yang korup dalam mengendalikan wang negara,” katanya yang menambah isu mengenai spekulasi mata wang Yen dan Dollar Amerika bermula sejak 1989 lagi.
“Akhirnya apabila kehilangan wang negara yang begitu besar berlaku, tiada pihak yang berani untuk membawa ke muka pengadilan spekulator yang bertanggungjawab,” kata beliau.
Yet another Chinese make sighted on test in Malaysia – this time it’s a Chery A3 sedan and it was snapped on the PLUS highway near Perak by Kevin Lee.
This car is known with many different names in the markets where it is available. It’s been known to called the Chery Tengo, the Chery Chance, the Chery Niche, the Chery Skin, the Chery Orinoco, or good old alphanumeric codes like the A3, the J3, or the M11.
It’s powered by a range of Chery’s own ACTECO four cylinder engines such as a 119hp/147Nm 1.6 litre, a 132hp/170Nm 1.8 litre and a 139hp/183Nm 2.0 litre. Judging from it’s 2,550mm wheelbase, it’s a B-segment compact sedan like the Honda City and the Toyota Vios.
Chery hasn’t been doing too badly in Malaysia – it’s Chery Eastar MPV seems quite popular and has been selling relatively well in comparison to other Chinese passenger marques that have been introduced in Malaysia.

Reader Eddy Liau spotted this Chinese-branded sedan with trade plates near his house. After a brief Facebook conversation and some Googling, we managed to identify it as a Changan Alsvin, also called by its Chinese market name Changan Yue Xiang. It looks alot like the 1st gen Mazda 3 sedan. It’s powered by a 1.5 litre engine and has a 2,515mm wheelbase.
Changan is sold in Malaysia by a Berjaya Group company called Changan Berjaya Auto Sdn Bhd under the Chana Era name, and there are currently two passenger models available – the Chana Era CV6 which is a Changan Ben Ben, and the Chana Era CM8 which is a compact MPV. Looks like they might be adding a sedan to their model line-up?
