  "summary": "Jen Endoro, a legend in the Malaysian duduk barat (dikir barat) tradition, has passed away at the age of 66, as reported by the New Straits Times. The Kelantan Fire and Rescue Department has taken a significant step to enhance the safety of young flood victims by equipping all 22 state fire stations with child-sized life jackets. The initiative, which was introduced last year and funded by several non-governmental organisations, aims to improve the safety of children aged below 18 during rescue operations in flood-prone areas. Previously, firefighters had to use adult-sized life jackets on children, which raised concerns about their safety, especially in situations involving strong currents or deep floodwaters.",
