KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 23 — Two foreign nationals have become the first individuals in Malaysia to be charged in court for littering under the newly enforced anti-littering law, according to a report by The Star.
MOSCOW, May 12 — For the first time in history, British intelligence agency MI6 is set to be led by a woman, with agency leadership currently selecting from three female candidates who reached the final round of interviews, according to The Times, as reported by Sputnik/Ria Novosti.
The interviews were held last week, and among the finalists, two are serving MI6 officers. The only publicly identified candidate is Barbara Woodward, former UK Ambassador to China and currently the highest-ranking woman in the Foreign Office.
However, her candidacy has faced criticism over perceived sympathies toward Beijing. — Bernama-Sputnik/Ria Novosti
