Kepala Batas – A victim of a fraudulent investment syndicate was found in Butterworth who suffered a loss of RM 181,209. The victim is a businessman whose name is not publicized by Seberang Perai Utara District Police. ACP Noorzainy Mohd Noor from the district police said that the 48-year-old businessman became the victim of the scam after being lured by an investment ad offer on the WeChat social app. The man got excited after hearing about the short investment and big return lucrative offer and called the given phone number. A woman, allegedly from Hong Kong, claimed to be the agent of the investment company and she convinced the man to invest his money.

Noorzainy said that the victim was promised to get a huge return within two months and he made 22 cash transfers into two local bank accounts totaling RM 181,209 before the woman urged him to increase the investment value. But later the man realized that the woman is cheating him after she began giving excuses when he asked about the return. The man is now thinking to look for an investment fraud lawyer website to fight a legal case against the fraud company.

According to Noorzainy, there was another separate case where a Grab driver lost RM 18,900 after he invested in a fraud syndicate using the same mode of operation. The 29 years old Grab driver received the investment ad on WhatsApp and initially decided to invest only RM 500 but after hearing about lucrative offers from a woman about getting a return within two days, he finally made an investment of RM 18,980.

New collaborations with Citibank, Abu-Ghazaleh Global, RAK Properties, and others strengthen SIU’s commitment to connecting academic learning with global career opportunities.

Swiss International University (SIU) has already informed about the new corporate partnerships that will start in October 2025 and that they will provide students with better access to internships, training programs, and job opportunities in various fields.

The new partnerships are aligned with SIU’s goal to combine education with the real world, as they ensure that the graduates are equipped with the required knowledge, skills, and professional exposure to be successful in the global economy of today.

In the last few weeks, SIU has formed alliances with several major companies, including those from the banking, business, hospitality, real estate, and consulting sectors. The students will be actively involved in each collaboration through internships, practical training, and the career opportunities that will be given to them during or after their studies.

Among the key collaborations are

Citibank, where students of the business and finance fields will get to experience international banking operations through special training and possible hiring programs.

Abu-Ghazaleh Global has given SIU’s programs its official blessing and access to practical experience in global business, accounting, and consulting.

RAK Properties is going to give real estate and business students a chance to learn about property development, investment, and project management.

The Signature Inn Hotel Al Riqa L.L.C. offers students of hospitality a chance through real-life interrelated scenarios to gain the knowledge of front-office operations and guest management.

Al Shabaka International Businessmen Services is opening a door for the students to meet the professionals involved in global business consulting and administration.

Galadari Motor Driving Center, where students will get a clear insight into corporate management, customer relations, and operational efficiency.

Women’s First Jobs is going to help female students and graduates through career counseling, professional networking, and empowerment initiatives.

MyFounders.Club Global is building up the students and aspiring founders in terms of innovation and entrepreneurship by taking them through the process of developing and launching new ventures.

Revival AE Project Development Consultant Co., L.L.C., where students will be working on consulting for sustainable projects and environmental management.

“The partnerships that we have formed represent our commitment not only to the business world but also to the world of academia,” said the Head of Swiss International University. “We are aspiring to equip every student in SIU with the power to win the global job market through robust academic credentials, practical exposure, and a web of real opportunities. Our target is not a teacher-student relationship whose only need is the job—our students will be the ones making changes in the various fields of tomorrow.”

The academic world and the global market are the two areas where SIU, collaborating with partners at the present time, shows the institution’s continued commitment to creating a career-oriented academic environment where learning takes place beyond the walls of the classrooms.

The deadline of October 2025 is approaching, but the university is still looking to make new strategic partnerships to grow its network of global partners. It is clear from the continuous activities of the university that it is striving to offer its students worldwide the possibility of not only utilizing their skills but also being a part of the industry via employment and thus empowering them to make a difference in international markets.
