Ayam Brand™ Saba Mackerel Flakes in three variants of Chilli, Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Mayonnaise

Ayam Brand™, synonymous in Malaysia for its sardines in the iconic yellow and red can, and varieties of tuna, is adding Saba Mackerel Flakes to its healthy, convenient and tasty ready-to-eat fish meals. For Saba recipes, you can click on the link to read about it.

Saba is the Japanese word for Pacific mackerel1. Saba is a dietary staple in Japan, popular for its nutritional value, affordable price and rich taste. In Malaysia, grilled saba is a favourite at Japanese restaurants.


Now you can enjoy the exotic saba mackerel fish at home, at work or at leisure with Ayam Brand™ Saba Mackerel Flakes that come in three variants of Chilli, Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Mayonnaise. Ayam Brand™ has localised these variants to deliver the best taste and quality saba mackerel flakes to Malaysians.


Saba mackerel is acknowledged for its great taste but did you know that it is an exceptionally nutritious fish? It is high in protein, vitamins, minerals, and omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA.

Based on an article by U.S National Institutes of Health, diets which are rich in omega-3 have been linked to healthy aging, such as in Japan, which has the highest life expectancy globally2.

However, our bodies do not produce omega-3 fatty acids which is why it is necessary to obtain these nutrients from natural food sources such as seafood.3 Saba mackerel has almost 50% more omega-3, compared to a similar serving of tuna. In fact, one 160gm can Ayam Brand™ Chilli Saba Mackerel Flakes has the same amount of omega-3 as eight softgel fish oil capsules, fulfilling your weekly omega-3 needs4.


Benefits of Omega-35
Omega-3 can promote brain health during pregnancy and early life as it is crucial for brain growth and development in infants. Getting enough omega-3s during pregnancy is associated with numerous benefits for your child, including higher intelligence, better communication and social skills, fewer behavioural problems and decreased risk of developmental delay.


Omega-3 fatty acid DHA also improves reading skills and behaviour in kids who need help most — those whose test scores place them in the bottom 20% of their elementary school class — according to a controlled trial6.


Our eyes are constantly exposed to blue light from looking at electronic and digital screens and this can increase the risk of permanent eye damage or even blindness. Getting sufficient omega-3 DHA, which is a major structural component of the retina of our eyes, may be vital in keeping eyes healthy, and maintaining good vision for a longer period of time7.


Studies have also found omega-3 can benefit age-related cognitive decline such as Alzheimer's Disease. Older adults who consume omega-3 from seafood perform better on thinking skill test, suggesting that omega-3 can reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease8.


Interestingly, numerous research studies indicate that consuming omega-3 that is naturally found in food sources brings more benefits than taking it as a fish oil supplement. Hence, there are so many reasons to add Ayam Brand™ Saba Mackerel Flakes to your diet as a rich source of omega-3, at every stage of your life.


While fresh saba mackerel is not widely available at local markets and supermarkets, it is available at Japanese restaurants albeit at a premium price. However, Ayam Brand™ Saba Mackerel Flakes brings all the nutritional benefits, especially the omega-3, with the convenience of a ready-to-eat meal in variants that suit Malaysians’ taste buds including chilli, Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Mayonnaise.


Now you know it is easy to get all the goodness of omega-3 from Ayam Brand ™ Saba Mackerel Flakes. Just pull the tab to open a can and it is ready to eat. To make it a meal, have it with hot rice, or roll it with rice and wrap with seaweed for homemade Onigiri. It tastes great in a wrap, as a sandwich filling, over pasta, or as a pizza topping.


Ayam BrandTM Saba Mackerel Flakes in Chilli (160gm) and in Mayonnaise(160gm) retail price at RM 6.20 while in Extra Virgin Olive Oil (150gm) retail price at RM 6.50. The complete range of Ayam Brand™’s healthy and convenient products are available at supermarket outlets nationwide.

Watsons at Taipan USJ closed

Its Tuesday and thunder storm now and just sharing with you that Watsons at Taipan USJ, Subang Jaya has closed. The shop is nearby a pharmacy and also opposite street has got Guardian and McD. So other alternative to shop I only go to Subang Parade or Empire Shopping Gallery where they have Watsons.

Last time there was Watsons in Aeon Big Subang Jaya but its closed too. Where else can you find Watsons in Subang Jaya?

Today I went to the branch in Subang Parade to purchase Moquitoe Repellent. 80ml x 2 bottle at RM22 Watsons brand not sure how effective it is as no use before. I also bought roti boy for my children as the roti boy outlet in Aeon Big Subang Jaya had close too.

Guardian Surprise box RM19 @Shopee

1010 is the date where most people exciting waiting to shop! I bought 2 boxes of Guardian surprise box, suppose each box at RM19 but before the date of 10/10. The price went up by RM29 each, so I wanted to save on the delivery and bought two of it. Sad to say, I feel its not worth buying at all. It doesn't have much products that suitable for me. I ended up giving most of the products to my sister in law to pass nephew to use them.

Most products in the box are double, which mean 2 same products. If only they make an effort of putting a sign on box that the staff can just pick other boxes instead of boxes that contained of exact same range of products. Useful personal care products I found in the box are two toothpaste each boxes.

We can check on the review on the link of shopping there. They are shoppers that shared on their photos and experienced on the shopping. Some shoppers are lucky to get the box that value for money. I guess it's depend on individual to find the products contained suitable usage or not. I have got about 5 stripes of supplements in each box too. But supplements most refer to liver health, my sister in law took them and she says want to give father in law. I suggests her to ask the doctor if he can consume it or not.

Other than that my dear called me up to queue and register for the watch of Huawei which cost RM99 and only 10pcs for sell. It's not Shopee website though. With in a minute the watches are sold out. Normal price of the watch RM799.We didn't manage to buy it as it was sold out fast.

Shopee Answers Call to Lower Cost of Living with 9.9 Super Shopping Day

Over the past year, the Government has rolled out a number of initiatives to reduce the cost of living in Malaysia. Its recent initiative is the establishment of the National Action Committee on e-commerce by the National Cost of Living Action Council. The aim is to promote and strengthen the use of e-commerce, thereby eliminating the role of middlemen in a bid to lower the cost of consumer goods.

In view of this, the Government has been engaging closely with Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia and Taiwan, on how it can best alleviate the rising cost of living for Malaysians. One of Shopee’s efforts is to work alongside Malaysian retailers by lowering the barrier of entry to the digital economy. Additionally, the cost of operating a business online is much lower. In turn, Shopee encourages retailers to share their cost savings with shoppers, thereby making online shopping more affordable for consumers. As a result, consumers see themselves saving an average of 20% on their daily necessities when they shop on Shopee on a regular day, with the potential to save up to 90% during major shopping events like 9.9 Super Shopping Day.

CAROUSELL CELEBRATES MALAYSIAN HEROES WITH #MYLOCALWIRA CAMPAIGN IN CONJUNCTION WITH MERDEKA DAY

Carousell, one of the world’s largest and fastest growing mobile classified marketplaces, kicked off a nationwide pro-social effort today, #MYLocalWira, as part of a month-long effort that runs until August 31 in conjunction with Malaysia’s upcoming 62nd Independence Day.

To celebrate the occasion, #MYLocalWira calls on Malaysians’ well-known spirit of generosity, with the support of notable Malaysians – squash legend Datuk Nicol David, Malaysia’s first female ONE Championship mixed martial arts (MMA) fighter and Global Citizen Ambassador Ann Osman, international model and renowned fashion and beauty entrepreneur Amber Chia, professional motorsport athlete and Malaysia's "Drift Queen” Leona Chin, world-class diver Leong Mun Yee and national gymnast Farah Ann. Each of these individuals has contributed several personal items to be sold on Carousell, with the proceeds going to a charitable cause.

“Many Malaysians are blessed with more than we need, while others need a helping hand. With the #MYLocalWira campaign, we are working with prominent individuals to sell their preloved items on Carousell in a generous act of ‘giving back’ to the Malaysian public who have supported them for years. We also expect that fans will find it very meaningful to acquire a personal item that has played a role in their hero’s career. With #MYLocalWira, we honour the Malaysians who make us proud, and hope their shining example will inspire others to do great things,” said Mr Tang Siew Wai, Country Head, Malaysia, Carousell Malaysia.

The full proceeds from the sale of these items will benefit Parents without Partners, a charitable organisation established to help single parents in need. Funds are raised primarily through the sale of preloved items at their thrift store, Jumble Station, which relies on public donations, and the proceeds from #MYLocalWira will help support expenses such as rent, groceries and school supplies.
