Lim Sheau Ling, 42, is calling for legal action against the truck driver and the company involved. Her daughter, Lee Zi Rou, 21, the second of four siblings, was known for her kindness and dedication, often taking on part-time jobs to help support her family.
“My daughter is gone, but I want justice for her. I don’t want anyone else to feel the pain we’re going through,” Lim said, tearfully recounting the heartbreaking loss.
Human Resources Minister Steven Sim Chee Keong visited the family to offer condolences and confirmed that they will receive assistance from the Social Security Organisation (Perkeso).
Tragic accident occurred at 9.30 am when Lee, driving a Perodua Bezza, was trapped in her car after container fell onto it. In her final phone call, Lee managed to reach her mother, saying, “Mummy, it hurts so much, please help me.”
Lim rushed to the scene, but by time she arrived, Lee had passed away.
“I can still hear her voice in my head,” Lim said, devastated by her loss. Lee’s aunt, who is close to the family, expressed how the loss has deeply affected them all. “She was a good person, and her death has left a huge void,” she said.
Sim confirmed that Lee, a clerk at Lo Best Smart Solution, had been a contributor to Perkeso since Oct 2022. As a result, her family is entitled to financial assistance, including a one-time RM3,000 funeral benefit and RM913.50 monthly payments under the Dependents’ Benefit.
“This support is meant to ease their burden,” Sim said, adding that the family will also receive counselling and free legal services to assist them during this difficult time.

MALAYSIA’S currency is on course for its worst month in more than nine years, as investors scale back on risk assets amid concerns over the US election. The ringgit is down more than 6 per cent against the US dollar in October, putting it on pace for its biggest monthly loss since August 2015. The ringgit traded at 4.39 per dollar on Wednesday (Oct 30).
The renewed strength in the dollar is battering Asian currencies, almost all of which have come under heavy pressure in October as traders reassess the pace of Federal Reserve interest rate cuts and avoid risky assets in the run-up to the US election.
But the ringgit is partly a victim of its own success: a 14 per cent appreciation against the dollar in the last quarter, which made it Asia’s best performer, ensured there was room for a correction this month, according to OCBC.
“The previous gain was significant; therefore there’s more room for corrective play,” said Christopher Wong, a currency strategist at OCBC in Singapore. “The ringgit’s sensitivity to the yuan and the yen is also one of the highest in the region, which helps explain why it is suffering more than the rest.”
Deceased Daim acquitted of asset disclosure charge following his death last week.
Today, the Kuala Lumpur Sessions Court granted acquittal despite an application by deputy public prosecutor Wan Shaharuddin Wan Ladin for a discharge not amounting to an acquittal (DNAA).

Malaysia drops 1MDB-linked charges against ex-PM Najib. 27 Nov 2024
KUALA LUMPUR: A M'sian court on Wednesday (Nov 27) allowed corruption charges linked to the multibillion-dollar 1MDB scandal filed against jailed former PM Namib Razak & former treasury chief to be dropped, their lawyers said.
Najib and former treasury secretary-general Irwan Serigar Abdullah were charged in 2018 with six counts of criminal breach of trust involving government funds worth 6.6 billion ringgit (US$1.48 billion), which officials have said were related to a settlement agreement between 1MDB and Abu Dhabi state fund International Petroleum Investment Company. Both consistently denied wrongdoing.
The Kuala Lumpur High Court granted their bid for a discharge not amounting to an acquittal, due to procedural delays and the failure of the prosecution to disclose key documents, their lawyers said. The court correctly exercised its jurisdiction to discharge our client of the charges, consonant with the law," Najib's lawyer Muhammad Farhan Muhammad Shafee said in a text message.
A discharge not amounting to an acquittal means the prosecution will not prosecute the accused for the offence for the time being but can do so in the future. The judge said that the court's decision did not “prejudice” the prosecution as they could recharge Najib and Irwan.

Is Zahid telling PH do not be arrogant in seats negotiations for the next GE?.
On 24 Nov 2024, BN chief Ahmad Zahid Hamidi reportedly said discussions will be held with Madani coalition partners in the government to finalise the seat allocation where BN is eyeing to contest 5 parliamentary seats in the Federal Territories.
As BN currently held Titiwangsa, the other 4 parliamentary seats are most likely Putrajaya and Labuan which are currently held by PN and 2 seats currently held by PH to make up the 5 seats.
2 days after this, Zahid Hamidi revealed that there were offers for BN to withdraw from the unity government and form a new one, with an offer of the Prime Minister's position in exchange while those collaborators asked for four cabinet posts to be given to them.
Asking for 4 Cabinet posts only?
BN has 30 MPs.
PN has 68 MPs.
GPS has 23 MPs.
GRS has 6 MPs.
If all the above 4 coalitions band together, it will be 127 MPs, more than the magical number of 112 MPs required, to form a govt.
