Malaysia finally returns from the heartache that’s the pandemic. The streets are congested again and most of us are back in our offices. Nature is healing and it shows!
With that, comes a new awareness of cleanliness. The definition of ‘clean’ is now redefined as Malaysians seek a better and more hygienic lifestyle – starting from their lives at home.
Here’s some fresh new tips and tricks on how to keep yourself and your loved ones clean:


Set a cleaning system



Generally, systems are made to assist humans in everyday life. However, not all systems work for everyone, hence why it’s best to find a system that suits you and your lifestyle. For instance, WFH moms may be able to clean the house gradually throughout the day whereas office moms may only have the weekends to do the same chore.

In deciding the best cleaning system for you; imperatively you need to sit down and look at your schedule, your cleaning appliances and your potential energy levels throughout the day. Set realistic expectations for you so you don’t disappointed in case you’re not able to fulfil the duties.

Store everything you can

Space is a crucial factor for cleanliness, simply because of the frequency of touch. The more clutter you have, the more likely these items will be exposed to bacteria - and that increases the likelihood of getting infected with various diseases.
When you can, always make time just to declutter and arrange your things according to the system you’ve set. This will not only limit the frequency of touch but also save you from accidentally stepping on a random toy or items that are pointy in nature.

Make cleaning a family activity

I understand that you might be used to doing all the cleaning alone, but you don’t have to. Cleaning your home is an important part of living in it so why stop yourself from asking your other family members to help out? This might just be a great way to bond with them too.

When it comes to children, it’s important to allow them to understand the importance of cleaning by showing them the ways yourself. This is so that they won’t have any difficulty in cleaning after themselves and their future homes. Plus, now you don’t have to use all your energy cleaning the house all by yourself. A family that cleans together, stays together.

Use high-tech home appliances


Everyday appliances are fine and all but have you ever used or owned a high-tech home appliance? These appliances were invented to make your life easier and your routines more convenient. The right one can be a lifestyle game changer.

For busy bees who may not have ample time to clean every inch of the house, an automatic vacuum cleaner or a Roomba can help minimize the amount of effort a person puts in cleaning rooms and spaces.
But one of the most important home appliances is actually your washing machine. Why? Because your washing machine protects you from the bacteria that lingers on your clothes, especially after a long day at work or outdoors.



One that you should consider is the new Sharp Pro-Flex 4-in-1 washing machine which is the first and only 4-in-1 multi-function washing machine that can help you wash, spin, dry AND dry airwash!

What’s unique about this washing machine is its steam function that penetrates deep into the fabric removing allergens, dirt and everything bad in a short amount of time. How short? Within 10 minutes only! Perfect if you’re always chasing deadlines and tight timelines.

Did I mention it is also environmental-friendly? With the J-tech inverter motor, this unit saves energy up to 47%, which is good for the environment and your wallet too.
