Surfed and browsed the Internet on the look-out for some interesting stories and this is what I managed to find.
The article originated from our neighbour Indonesia. Reading the article in Bahasa Indonesia however need some getting used to from our own Bahasa Malaysia/Melayu. We may be serumpun in many ways but we can still get lost over some language barriers.
Tiga orang tewas dan dua lainnya dalam kondisi kritis pada hari Rabu karena diduga keracunan durian campur minuman keras (Miras) di Kabupaten Bungo, 310 km dari Kota Jambi.

Note: It is a common knowledge over here that to eat durian and down it with any type of liquor is a big no-no.
Another thing that I have noticed so far is that the Indonesians like to have everything in short form.
In fact they have a short form name for almost anything.
For example, Jawa Timur is Jatim, Jawa Tengah is Jateng and in the above article, minuman keras becomes miras.
