Today's countdown includes:

5. PichaEats, a social enterprise that sells meals cooked by refugees, was supposed to cater an event at a local university for 500 people, only to find out the order had been a scam. We hear from Luqman Hakim, co-owner of Cakies, a bakery in TTDI, for how caterers deal with situations like this.

4. A video of divers touching turtles and spearhunting fish while swimming in the seas in Sabah, has received heavy backlash on social media. We hear from Julian Hyde, the General Manager of Reef Check Malaysia to weigh in on the incident.

3. More updates on the eviction of the Bajau Laut community, which has caused outrage amongst civil society organisations and the public, with Pusat Komas calling for answers on the issue. We hear from Datuk Dr Jaujan Hj Sambakong, ADUN of Sulabayan.

2. The Kelantan government is making updates to their Entertainment Bill, with fines being increased exponentially and new clauses including offences that support or normalise LGBTQ activities, disrupt racial harmony and unity, and insult religion. We hear from Eddin Khoo, founder of Pusaka on how this would potentially impact the state's cultural activities.

1. Our top story: The government has announced their plans to introduce a law for plastic disposal and pollution. We dive into the potential and pitfalls with Mageswari Sangaralingam, Senior Research Officer at Sahabat Alam Malaysia.
