First Bicycle Insurance In Malaysia

Allianz General partners Howden to underwrite first bicycle insurance in Malaysia

Allianz General Insurance Company (Malaysia) Berhad (Allianz General) announced recently of its partnership with Howden, the international insurance broker, to provide cyclists with the first-in-market Bicycle Insurance. 

While cycling has an avid following in Malaysia, cyclists have long lamented the lack of insurance protection against accidents or theft. 

Allianz General and Howden’s comprehensive bicycle insurance offers protection against accident/crash damage, theft, and coverage of accessories and specified add-on parts. Moreover, Allianz is also offering the Allianz Shield Plus personal accident insurance as part of the coverage that will cover Accidental Death, Permanent Disablement, Snatch Theft or Attempted Snatch Theft, medical expenses as well as other Optional Benefits.

Allianz General Chief Executive Officer Sean Wang revealed that the Company is excited to embark on its partnership with Howden to serve the protection needs of cyclists in Malaysia. 

“Malaysia has such a vibrant cycling community, and what was missing was an insurance solution that looked after the cyclist and their ride. In Howden, we found a distribution partner that ticked all the right boxes, and we are very excited to work together and be able to offer meaningful protection for our customers,” said Sean, who is also Chief Executive Officer of Allianz Malaysia Berhad. 

Jeffrey Chan, CEO, Howden Malaysia, said: "Howden’s focus is to provide clients with the service and choice they need to face the risks of today and tomorrow. We are thrilled to collaborate with Malaysia's leading insurance operators, Allianz General, to bring to the market this specialised insurance solution for cyclists to enhance their cycling experience."

Visiting Sikh Gurdwaras On Bicycles

The "Gurdwara Cycling Tour 2022" is a 12 month cycling project which will be done in stages on weekends by Gurdev Singh and Jack Chan who are amateur cyclists from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. "The idea of cycling and visiting every Sikh Gurdwaras around Malaysia was planned two years ago but when COVID 19 hit the shores we put the project on hold," said Gurdev. The dynamic duo also hope to create headlines by becoming the first Punjabi (Sikh) - Chinese (Christian) to form a cycling partnership to tour Malaysia on their bicycles and visiting the Sikh Gurdwaras nationwide, this includes Sabah and Sarawak too. "We plan to keep the ride 50km daily. For the first route, starting Saturday 7 May we will begin cycling from Tampin Gurdwara to Melaka Gurdwara (50km to be exact). We will cycle same route from Melaka to Tampin on Sunday 8 May," said Chan. The duo are cycling to create an awareness for teenagers and adults on the importance of cycling as it will lead to a ...

Fill Your Heart With Love

Every religion teaches man to greet the day with love in your heart. Nanak Ji, Christ, Buddha, Mohammed, Shiv and many others led us within. But we are quick to react to the actions of others, often going to the rooftop and yelling at them, humiliating, looking low, unappreciated backbiting on them. Why not reverse our actions by going to the rooftop and shouting praises of goodwill, love and biting our tongues when we are about to say unpleasant words. Today morning on the MRT, I kept reminding myself that I am love and silently I channeled loving thoughts to every passenger my eyes could see. A female beside me turned around and gave me a sweet glance (she probably felt my vibes of love 🌻). Today, I will greet this day with love. Will you do the same? 💞🙏 With late Gianiji Harcharan Singh Ji of Melaka Gurdwara. Tomorrow's cycling route 1, is dedicated to this humble soul 🙏 Follow our cycling journey 👇🚴🦅 https://gurdwaracycling.blogspot.com

Sikhs In Tampin

The "Gurdwara Cycling Tour 2022" will start on 7 May and both of us, Gurdev Singh and Jack Chan will flag off our cycling tourney from Tampin Gurdwara to Gurdwara Melaka, a historical city in the state of Melaka, Malaysia. I would like to account a little history about the Sikhs in Tampin. The Sikhs first arrived in Malaya around the early 1900's and Tampin town (based on records) were first visited by Sikhs in the 1920's. Most of these Sikhs were employed to work at railway stations, bus and lorry drivers, some took the post of policemen while some as labourers working and looking after cattle and at respectively plantations. On 18th September (based on records), it was stated that the first Prakash of the Sikh Holy Book Sri Guru Grant Sahib Ji was held at Gurdwara Sahib Tampin. Meanwhile the first Nishan Sahib Di Salami was held on the 23rd September, 1967 in the presence of Babaji Sant Sohan Singh Ji. The Gurdwara Sahib Tampin was then officially declared open...
