  • Epson Redefines Affordable Printing with Its Next-Generation EcoTank Series

    Epson has expanded its EcoTank printer portfolio with the introduction of eight new compact models, designed to provide faster, more efficient and cost-effective printing solutions for homes and small businesses. Building on the global success of more than 100 million EcoTank printers sold worldwide, the latest generation offers improved productivity, enhanced durability and a more compact design to meet the growing demand for reliable home-office and business printing across Southeast Asia.

    The new EcoTank line-up includes the L1310, L3310, L3316, L3350, L3356 and L5390, with selected models featuring advanced capabilities such as mobile scanning and copying through the Epson Smart Panel app, as well as Apple AirPrint compatibility for seamless wireless printing. The L5390 further enhances workplace productivity with an Automatic Document Feeder (ADF), making it easier to handle multi-page documents efficiently.

    Designed for high-volume printing, the latest EcoTank printers deliver impressive page yields of up to 4,700 black-and-white pages and 7,500 colour pages using high-capacity 65ml ink bottles. Epson has also improved the refill system with colour-coded tank keys that help users refill ink easily while reducing spills and maintenance. The printers are engineered to print up to 50,000 pages under warranty and feature a replaceable Maintenance Box and Semi-Automatic Print Adjustment system to ensure consistent print quality over extended use.

    The new series also introduces a sleeker and more compact design, with a footprint that is up to 20% smaller than previous models. Integrated ink tanks, an improved paper tray and enhanced paper support contribute to a cleaner workspace and smoother printing experience. Powered by Epson’s Heat-Free Technology, the printers consume less energy, making them a practical and environmentally responsible choice for both home users and businesses looking to reduce operating costs.

    To support modern hybrid work environments, selected EcoTank models offer wireless connectivity through the Epson Smart Panel, allowing users to print, scan, monitor printer status and manage documents directly from their smartphones or tablets. Support for AirPrint and Mopria further enhances compatibility with a wide range of mobile devices, while USB connectivity remains available on selected models for users who prefer traditional wired printing.

    According to Epson Malaysia Managing Director Alvin Tan, the new EcoTank series reflects the company’s ongoing commitment to delivering high-performance printing solutions that help customers improve productivity while keeping operating costs low. The latest models combine speed, reliability, intuitive features and sustainability, making them suitable for businesses, entrepreneurs, students and families alike. Available in Malaysia from 1 July, the new EcoTank printers are backed by a five-year warranty, offering users greater confidence and long-term value.

    Nestlé Malaysia is strengthening its sustainability efforts as it continues its journey towards reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 50% by 2030 and achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050. The company has already recorded a 31% reduction in GHG emissions compared with its 2018 baseline, surpassing its interim target of 20% for 2025.

    The progress reflects a broad range of initiatives implemented across Nestlé Malaysia’s operations and value chain. These include the transition to 100% renewable electricity across its Malaysian operations, improvements in manufacturing efficiency, more sustainable sourcing practices and collaboration with local farmers and suppliers to promote regenerative agriculture.

    Packaging circularity is another key area of focus for the company. Through initiatives aimed at reducing virgin plastic use, improving packaging design, increasing the use of recycled PET and strengthening post-consumer recovery, Nestlé Malaysia continues to address the environmental impact of its packaging throughout its lifecycle.

    Front row: [far left] Juan Aranols, Chief Executive Officer of Nestlé Malaysia; [centre] YB Tuan Syed Ibrahim bin Syed Noh, Deputy Minister of Natural Resources and Environmental Sustainability; and [far right] Dr. Margaret Kuyor, Deputy Undersecretary (Circular Economy), Urban Sustainability Division, Ministry of Housing and Local Government (KPKT), with vendors and partners supporting Nestlé Malaysia’s sustainability journey. The engagement reflects Nestlé Malaysia’s holistic approach to advancing sustainability across its value chain, as the Company continues its progress towards a 50% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and Net Zero by 2050.

    The company has also introduced Nestlé KITAR as the refreshed platform for Project SAVE, an Extended Producer Responsibility programme focused on encouraging the segregation, recovery and recycling of materials. To date, the programme has recovered and recycled 50,000 tonnes of dry mixed materials, including 32,000 tonnes of plastics, supporting efforts to strengthen Malaysia’s circular economy.

    Nestlé Malaysia’s sustainability initiatives also extend into local communities through programmes such as MILO Energy for Good. The programme has engaged more than 200 schools through recycling education and initiatives that transform used beverage cartons into useful items such as school furniture and sports equipment.

    Beyond emissions reduction and waste management, the company is continuing its efforts to restore ecosystems through Project RELeaf. Having completed the planting of three million trees across Malaysia, Nestlé Malaysia has committed to planting an additional three million trees by 2030, contributing to biodiversity conservation and long-term climate resilience.

    Nestlé Malaysia’s sustainability journey demonstrates the importance of collaboration across the entire value chain, from sourcing raw materials and powering manufacturing facilities to managing packaging and engaging communities. By combining environmental action with partnerships and community programmes, the company aims to create lasting positive impact while supporting Malaysia’s broader sustainability and decarbonisation ambitions.

    Having exceeded its interim climate target for 2025, Nestlé Malaysia is now building on this momentum towards its next milestone of a 50% reduction in GHG emissions by 2030. These ongoing efforts form part of the company’s long-term commitment to achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050 and contributing to a more sustainable future for Malaysia.

  • Anak Muda Malaysia Nikmati Momen Kecil Bermakna Bersama Rangkaian Baharu NESCAFÉ

    [Ketiga dari kanan] Norkhayati Mohamed Hashini, Pegawai Eksekutif Perniagaan, Kopi, Nestlé Malaysia, bersama ahli pasukan NESCAFÉ meraikan pelancaran rangkaian Sedia-Untuk-Diminum (RTD) baharu NESCAFÉ, sekali gus menghidupkan kempen “Treat Yourself to More” yang menggalakkan rakyat Malaysia meraikan setiap pencapaian kecil dalam kehidupan seharian.

    Dalam kehidupan yang semakin sibuk, anak muda Malaysia kini semakin menghargai kejayaan-kejayaan kecil yang dicapai setiap hari. Sama ada berjaya menyiapkan tugasan penting, mengharungi hari kerja yang padat atau meluangkan masa untuk bersenam, setiap pencapaian menjadi satu detik bermakna yang wajar diraikan. Melihat kepada perubahan gaya hidup ini, NESCAFÉ memperkenalkan kempen “Treat Yourself to More” bagi menggalakkan pengguna menikmati momen-momen kecil dalam kehidupan menerusi rangkaian Sedia-Untuk-Diminum (RTD) terbaharunya.

    Kempen tersebut turut memperkenalkan dua pilihan perisa baharu yang diinspirasikan daripada trend minuman kafe masa kini, iaitu NESCAFÉ Spanish Latte dan NESCAFÉ Tiramisu Latte. Kehadiran kedua-dua perisa ini memberikan pilihan kepada pengguna untuk menikmati minuman kopi yang lazat dan berkrim sebagai teman ketika berehat atau sebagai ganjaran selepas berjaya menyelesaikan sesuatu tugasan.

    Menurut Norkhayati Mohamed Hashini, Pegawai Eksekutif Perniagaan, Kopi, Nestlé Malaysia, kopi pada masa kini bukan lagi sekadar minuman untuk memberikan tenaga, sebaliknya telah menjadi sebahagian daripada rutin harian golongan muda Malaysia untuk berehat dan mengembalikan tenaga selepas menjalani hari yang sibuk. Sama ada ketika meluangkan masa bersama rakan-rakan atau memberi penghargaan kepada diri sendiri selepas mencapai sesuatu, kopi menjadi satu cara mudah untuk berhenti seketika dan menikmati momen yang bermakna.

    Para tetamu merakam detik kemenangan kecil mereka dalam kehidupan seharian menerusi pengalaman Glambot di acara NESCAFÉ “Treat Yourself to More”.

    NESCAFÉ Spanish Latte mengambil inspirasi daripada minuman kafe popular dengan gabungan rasa kopi yang lembut serta sentuhan manis berkrim. Sementara itu, NESCAFÉ Tiramisu Latte pula diinspirasikan daripada pencuci mulut klasik tiramisu yang menggabungkan rasa kopi bersama nota berkrim dan sedikit sentuhan perisa koko. Kedua-dua pilihan ini menawarkan rasa yang lembut dan berkrim, sesuai untuk mereka yang ingin mencuba pengalaman kopi baharu atau menikmati secawan kopi tambahan pada waktu petang.

    Hadir dalam botol 280ml yang mudah dibawa, rangkaian baharu NESCAFÉ RTD ini diperbuat daripada 100% PET kitar semula dan mendapat pensijilan Halal. Dengan format yang praktikal, pengguna boleh menikmati minuman kopi kegemaran mereka dengan mudah pada bila-bila masa dan di mana sahaja, sama ada ketika bekerja, belajar, melakukan aktiviti harian atau sekadar mengambil masa untuk berehat.

    Rakan NESCAFÉ, Yusof Hashim (Ucop), bergaya di hadapan Glambot bersama NESCAFÉ Spanish Latte dan NESCAFÉ Tiramisu Latte baharu, sambil meraikan kemenangan kecil yang menjadikan setiap hari lebih bermakna untuk dinikmati.

    Bagi menghidupkan kempen “Treat Yourself to More”, NESCAFÉ turut menganjurkan acara meraikan kejayaan harian di The Campus, Ampang, yang berjaya menarik lebih 1,800 pengunjung. Para tetamu berpeluang mencuba rangkaian RTD baharu sambil menyertai pelbagai aktiviti interaktif, termasuk Glambot video booth yang membolehkan mereka merakam detik “watak utama” masing-masing dan mengabadikan kenangan istimewa sepanjang acara.

    Selain itu, stesen lakaran berpacukan Kecerdasan Buatan (AI) memberi peluang kepada pengunjung untuk menzahirkan detik “Kejayaan Minggu Ini” mereka dalam bentuk lakaran kreatif. Lukisan tersebut kemudiannya diubah menjadi hasil seni digital yang diperibadikan, sebelum boleh dimuat turun dan dikongsi di platform media sosial sebagai satu lagi cara untuk meraikan pencapaian kecil dalam kehidupan.

    Para tetamu menikmati suasana meriah di acara NESCAFÉ “Treat Yourself to More” sambil menyertai pelbagai aktiviti menyeronokkan yang disediakan.

    Acara tersebut turut dimeriahkan menerusi kerjasama bersama Cookiecrumbs, jenama biskut yang mempunyai pengikut setia dalam kalangan golongan muda. Setiap pengunjung menerima kit “Treat Yourself to More” yang menampilkan pilihan NESCAFÉ Spanish Latte atau NESCAFÉ Tiramisu Latte bersama biskut Cookiecrumbs, menawarkan gandingan sempurna untuk dinikmati sebagai ganjaran selepas melalui hari yang sibuk.

    Kerjasama ini turut diteruskan menerusi promosi di cawangan Cookiecrumbs sepanjang tempoh kempen. Pelanggan yang membuat pembelian produk Cookiecrumbs bernilai RM25 berpeluang menerima sebotol NESCAFÉ Spanish Latte atau NESCAFÉ Tiramisu Latte secara percuma. Inisiatif tersebut membolehkan pengalaman “Treat Yourself to More” dinikmati oleh lebih ramai pengguna, bukan sahaja ketika acara berlangsung, malah di luar aktiviti pelancaran.

    Seiring dengan perubahan cita rasa dan pilihan kopi generasi baharu, NESCAFÉ terus komited menghasilkan produk dan pengalaman yang dekat dengan gaya hidup pengguna masa kini. Menerusi kempen “Treat Yourself to More”, NESCAFÉ berharap dapat memberi inspirasi kepada lebih ramai rakyat Malaysia untuk menghargai dan meraikan setiap kemenangan kecil dalam kehidupan kerana setiap hari pasti hadir dengan detik yang bermakna.

    Rangkaian NESCAFÉ RTD kini boleh didapati di pasar raya besar, pasar raya dan kedai serbaneka di seluruh negara, selain platform e-dagang seperti Shopee dan Lazada.

  • How Elite Athletes Spend Their Rest Days — And What You Can Learn From Them

    When people imagine the daily lives of elite athletes, they may picture intense training sessions, competitive matches, weightlifting and carefully planned recovery routines. However, according to Dr Luigi Gratton, VP of Health and Wellness at Herbalife, the habits that truly set elite athletes apart are often the simple, consistent routines they follow when no one is watching. From maintaining balanced nutrition and staying hydrated to prioritising sleep and active recovery, these everyday practices play an important role in supporting performance, energy and long-term health.

    One of the key habits elite athletes consistently practise is consuming enough protein throughout the day. Rather than relying solely on a post-workout meal, athletes typically spread their protein intake across meals and snacks. Protein plays an important role beyond muscle development, supporting muscle maintenance, immune function and the production of enzymes and hormones. For everyday individuals, including protein-rich foods such as eggs, Greek yoghurt, chicken, fish or other suitable sources in regular meals can be a practical way to support overall nutrition.

    Elite athletes also adjust their carbohydrate intake according to their level of physical activity. Carbohydrates provide an important source of energy, particularly during periods of intense training and exercise. On demanding training days, athletes may consume more carbohydrates to support performance and recovery, while intake can be adjusted on lighter or rest days. The same principle can be applied to everyday lifestyles by matching food intake to individual activity levels rather than following a one-size-fits-all approach.

    From training ground to match day, consistency and recovery help teams perform at their best.

    Hydration is another essential part of an athlete’s routine. Instead of waiting until they feel thirsty, athletes make a conscious effort to consume fluids throughout the day and replace fluids lost through exercise and sweating. For Malaysians, where hot and humid conditions can increase fluid loss, maintaining adequate hydration is particularly important. The Malaysian Dietary Guidelines generally recommend six to eight glasses of plain water daily, while individuals who exercise heavily or spend time in hot environments may need to adjust their fluid intake based on factors such as activity level, sweat loss and environmental conditions.

    Sleep is equally important and should not be treated as an optional part of recovery. Elite athletes prioritise sufficient sleep because it supports physical recovery, muscle repair, nervous system function and mental performance. Adults are generally advised to get at least seven hours of sleep regularly, making quality rest a valuable habit for everyone, not just professional athletes. Getting enough sleep can help support energy levels, concentration and overall wellbeing.

    Elite performance is shaped by the habits athletes repeat every day, on and off the field.

    A diet rich in colourful, nutrient-dense fruits and vegetables is another common feature of an athlete’s lifestyle. Dark-coloured produce such as berries, leafy greens, cherries, beets, red grapes and purple cabbage provides a variety of vitamins, minerals and beneficial plant compounds. Including a wide range of fruits and vegetables as part of a balanced diet can support overall health and provide the nutrients needed to maintain an active lifestyle.

    Interestingly, rest days for elite athletes do not necessarily mean complete inactivity. Many athletes use these days for active recovery, incorporating low-intensity activities such as walking, gentle cycling, stretching, yoga or foam rolling. These activities allow the body to continue moving while giving muscles time to recover from more demanding training sessions. Rest and recovery are essential for managing fatigue, reducing the risk of overtraining and helping the body prepare for future activity.

    Spreading protein throughout the day helps support muscle health, energy and better food choices.

    Ultimately, the real lesson from elite athletes is that high performance is built through consistency rather than quick fixes or complicated routines. The principles are straightforward: eat balanced meals with adequate protein, match carbohydrate intake to activity levels, stay properly hydrated, prioritise quality sleep, include nutrient-rich fruits and vegetables, and make active recovery part of the routine. While most people do not need to train like professional athletes, adopting these practical habits can help support a healthier, more energetic lifestyle. The secret to performing at your best may not be what you do on the biggest day, but what you consistently choose to do on an ordinary day.

  • Malaysian Workers Say Fair Pay Alone Is No Longer Enough

    Malaysian Workers Say Fair Pay Alone Is No Longer Enough

    KUALA LUMPUR, 21 July 2026 — Fair pay alone is no longer enough to make Malaysian employees feel valued, according to Jobstreet by SEEK’s latest Salary Pulse 2026 report. While a significant 81% of employees believe they are paid fairly for their current roles, only 49% say they are satisfied with their salary. The findings highlight a growing gap between perceived salary fairness and overall job satisfaction, suggesting that employees are increasingly evaluating their compensation based on recognition, career growth and workplace support rather than market benchmarks alone.

    Based on responses from 1,010 employed Malaysians aged between 18 and 64, the report reveals that today’s workforce expects remuneration to reflect not only the value of their role but also their individual contributions and future career prospects. Employees now assess their salaries alongside factors such as workload, opportunities for advancement, workplace recognition and whether their income enables the lifestyle they aspire to achieve. As a result, employers are being encouraged to rethink how they approach salary discussions and employee rewards.

    The study also found that salary satisfaction has a direct impact on employee engagement and retention. Workers who are satisfied with their pay are almost three times more likely to remain motivated and go beyond their job responsibilities, while employees who are dissatisfied are 2.5 times more likely to consider leaving for another employer. These findings reinforce the importance of transparent and meaningful compensation strategies in building a committed and productive workforce.

    Beyond financial rewards, workplace culture and organisational values continue to play a critical role in career decisions. Although some employees are willing to compromise on factors such as job titles or being on call outside working hours for higher pay, very few are prepared to work in a toxic environment or for organisations whose values do not align with their own. This reflects a growing preference among Malaysian professionals for employers that offer a positive workplace culture, purpose and long-term career fulfilment alongside competitive remuneration.

    Recognition through performance-based rewards also appears to have a stronger impact than across-the-board salary adjustments. While more than half of Malaysian workers received salary increments over the past year, employees who were rewarded based on individual performance reported significantly higher levels of salary satisfaction compared to those who received standard company-wide increases. The findings suggest that personalised recognition helps employees feel more appreciated and reinforces the connection between performance and career progression.

    Despite recognising the importance of discussing pay, many employees remain reluctant to initiate salary conversations. Only 40% feel comfortable asking for a pay rise, although the report found that nearly eight in ten employees who requested an increase were successful. To improve employee engagement and retention, Jobstreet by SEEK recommends that employers move beyond simply offering competitive salaries by communicating pay decisions more transparently, encouraging regular career discussions and consistently recognising employee contributions. As workplace expectations continue to evolve, organisations that combine fair compensation with trust, recognition and meaningful career development are likely to be better positioned to attract and retain top talent.
