2. NUMBERS AT A GLANCE 🔢

The Department of Statistics Malaysia (DOSM) has reported an increase in the number of individuals aged 15 and above who have never been married. The figure has risen from 3.08 mil in 1970 to 8.39 mil in 2020. However, due to population growth over the years, the percentage of single individuals in relation to the country's population has decreased. In 1970, for example, 53.6% of the population aged 15 and above were single. This figure has decreased to 34.01% in 2020. The report shows that in 2020, 4.87 mil males and 3.52 mil females were single. Time to start a match-making business!

This pizzeria in San Francisco runs as many as 76 stores in a single address, serving burgers, cheesesteaks, sandwiches, shawarma and chicken wings. In many cases, different brands can operate from the same kitchen because they use ingredients and cooking equipment that can be shared among dishes. Food delivery platforms such as DoorDash and UberEats are clamping down on these virtual brands that have been cluttering their apps.

Here’s how to make some pocket money — catch some rats. DBKL conducted the Rat Campaign whereby RM3 was given per rat caught in the markets around KL. In 2023, 65,820 rats were caught as part of the effort to keep the city clean. However, no breakdown was given on how much was paid out under the Rat Campaign. What’s impressive is how DBKL keeps track of the number of rats it caught. Another way to make money? Avoid topping your TNG eWallet using a credit card, as a 1% fee will be imposed on reloads from 23 Feb 2024. You are still technically making money here — every dollar saved is a dollar earned. According to Rosmah, by inculcating a good savings habit, one can afford jewellery and dresses.
