PETALING JAYA: The temperature was hotter than usual on what was supposed to be a “shadowless” day, say Malaysians on social media.

They were commenting on Science, Technology and Innovation Minister Dr Adham Baba’s statement earlier on Monday (March 28), who said that Malaysians would experience an “afternoon without a shadow”, as the Sun would be directly overhead at 1.19pm.
