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.

Broga Cycling

On May 4th, 2022 Jack and myself will be doing a 40km cycling route. Our starting point will be from Broga town and departure is at 7.30am after our breakfast. From Broga, we will cycle through some scenic village routes until Kg Daching. From here, we will proceed to Bandar Tasik Senangin. This is a lovely residential area but sadly most of its houses are without the landlords. Many left it abondoned for whatever the reason, I don't know lah (probably the land is infected with termites). From the termite infected land, we will then head back to our starting point to Broga for lunch. This cycling exercise will prepare us for our weekend Gurdwara Cycling from Tampin to Melaka and vice versa. However, to those cyclist who are keen to join us for the inaugural cycling event, Jack Chan has prepared the program below: Gurdwara Cycling Tour 7-8 May, 2022 (Kajang-Tampin-Melaka-Tampin-Kajang). Train Schedule for Kajang- Tampin (Sat, 7 May 2022)  🚴Depart Kajang 6.23am and arrive Tampin at ...

Selfless Service Of A Sikh

In the Guru Grant Sahib page 286 the definition of Sewa: "One who performs selfless service, without thought of reward, shall attain his Lord and Master." It's a way of a Sikh. I share a cycling tale which happened few years ago. A friend who cycled Malaysia solo was introduced to some of my Sikh friends and without hesitation they humbly welcomed him to their homes, sharing shelter and food lovingly.  He learned new words and the most he liked was the Sikh greeting, Sat Sri Akal. The Sikhs have big hearts, I'm sure there are many of you who are not Sikhs with big hearts too and the word Sewa is not confined to Sikhs only.  In the wake of this virus and the hardship it has caused to many of us recently, the Sikh Gurdwaras has come forward to help with food serving Chapati, Dhall and Vegetables to those having financially difficulties or getting food on your table.
