      Škoda Explains How Modern Car Seats Are Developed

      Modern car seats involve more engineering than their appearance might suggest. Škoda Auto explains how their frames, foam structures and comfort features are developed to provide support and accommodate different occupants.

      Why Use Waze or Tuju When There’s Amap?

      Amap could well be the answer to Malaysia’s navigation woes… if only it worked as well here as it does in China. Now a little while ago, there was a bit of a brouhaha in Malaysia about the government giving Waze the boot out of here. Then there was an even bigger hoo-hah when the government instead championed Tuju, which, if you were like everyone else before last week, would probably have left you wondering, who? Without wanting to perhaps get the authorities called on oneself as well, it is nevertheless safe to say that the rollout of Tuju has…
