Before You Follow

Please take note that most of the tweets I do were related to either translations, public transports, or games. I rarely do personal tweets per se but I do use the same Twitter to reply toxic Malays with scientific evidence related to transgender issue and public transportation.Most of my personal tweets were either bilingual Malay and English in one tweet, or one tweet in either language and another language in the reply. Sometimes, it can contain third language, either Japanese or Chinese (Mandarin). However, replies to other tweets will be in whatever language that is used in the original tweet and will not be translated.I do not follow back people who followed me.
If I want to follow then I choose who to follow, regardless if they followed me or not.
I don't mind who you are, follow me if you want, don't follow if you don't want.I also have two different Instagram accounts, the public account @mnh48.official is open for anyone to follow, whereas the private account is only open to local Bandori fans in the MYANDORI Discord server. Even if you found the account, I always ask in that Discord server for verification before approving the follow request.

Interest

Translation

The main thing I do is translation.
I used to be part of Japanese anime / music / drama fansub group but I have stopped after the fansub group's works keep getting taken down for copyright.Now I do English-Malay translations for software, games, websites, etc especially for free and open source software (FOSS) community. I also contributes to the FOSS community whenever I can with my ability of coding and bug-hunting.I still do Japanese-Malay and Japanese-English translations from time to time, but not as part of any fansub groups anymore, rather independent hobby work.I also do Chinese-Malay, Chinese-Japanese, Chinese-English translations if the text is not too complicated.
My Chinese is rusty after so many years of not using Chinese at open space and only using it online, as there's no Chinese in my university and after I graduated I get trapped indoor unable to socialize due to my housemate's shenanigan.For more information, visit tl.mnh48.moe

Game

I started playing games in 2009, when I get to form one of secondary school (equivalent of 7th grade), where I usually go to cybercafe and spend my pocket money around RM2/hour.Nowadays, I don't have much time to play many games so I only focus on Minetest, Minecraft (mostly Java version but I have PC Game Pass which give access to Bedrock version as well), Counter Strike 2, and Osu!.

Music

My music preference is mostly Japanese, with the first ever encounter with Japanese music being Hatsune Miku - Sakura no Ame in 2009 which I found when we're searching for good sad song for our teacher's retirement choir group.For now, I mostly listen to VOCALOID, Bandori, LoveLive and RevStar songs.

Other Interest

I have interest in drawing, but my drawing is too ugly and it just demotivates me.Other than that, most of my interests were on the technical stuff, like wanting to create programs and finding ways to improve current programs.Other technical stuff would be written on my full personal website instead of here.

Help

I'm currently unemployed and fully depending on money I got from open source software donation pool where I'm translating in as well as doing low-paying freelance tasks. It would be good if you could ease my burden by helping me.I accept all kind of stuff, virtual and physical, including foods, contact me if you want to send anything high value or any physical items to ensure it arrived safely. I also accept donations.I also accept job offers as long as (1) it is accessible via public transport, (2) it do not require me to wear trousers (pants) as I only wear skirt, and (3) all of the staff will respect my gender and do not attempt to question about my legal gender that I couldn't change in this country

Non-Malaysians

Both donations on Liberapay and Ko-Fi could be processed through PayPal and Stripe. It's recommended to choose Stripe when using Liberapay or Ko-Fi as they have lower processing fees, hence I would get larger amount out of your donation to me through Stripe compared to through PayPal.Patreon processed through Payoneer, which I don't have experience in using yet.I will set up direct donation option with Stripe in the future, it will accept all major credit and debit cards (as well as FPX, the Malaysian payment gateway that connects to all bank direct debit and ewallet in Malaysia).ALL foreign donations are sent to my personal Maybank account regardless its processor PayPal, Stripe or Payoneer. Maybank (SWIFT code: MBBEMYKL) is the most reliable bank in Malaysia and they offer many different account types and card types, including credit, debit, prepaid, and charge cards. Maybank is also the sole issuer of American Express cards for Malaysian customers.All bank cards issued in Malaysia are debit cards with contactless payment by regulation, there is no ATM-only bank cards, and all card terminals in Malaysia uses both chip and NFC -- magnetic strip cards don't work here.
