Govt attacking bloggers again!

Many may have noticed that over the past 2 days the PM and his cohorts have started attacking bloggers again, calling them nuisances and spreader of lies etc. The PM has asked the public not to believe these blogs and to stop reading them. My questions are :

1)Are bloggers the cause of all the hardship we are suffering now?

2)If we stop reading or believing them, will it put more money into our pockets?

3)Shouldn't the blogs be a good way for the govt to see how the rakyat feels abt their performance, i.e. A REAL REPORT CARD!

4)Why don the PM stop pointing fingers at others for the cause of our hardships and take responsibility for a change?

5)Do u think everything we blog abt are lies? Why don u spend some time checking if what you, your cronies, your son-in-law are doing is beneficial to the rakyat or just plain greed on their side?

Any responsible and caring govt would turn to blogs to see how the rakyat is feeling. It is the best way. When so many is saying the same thing, there has got to be some truth in it!

Today, another clown they call a minister had this to say abt bloggers. Well, when the head is a moron, you can't expect his followers to be any smarter, can you?



KUALA LUMPUR: Unity, Culture, Arts and Heritage Minister Datuk Seri Shafie Apdal has hit out at blogs, saying they made the recent demonstrations worse.

He also described the culture of believing everything one read in blogs to be the truth as unhealthy and what made it worse was that the inaccurate information was passed on to others.

“One post may say a person stole RM10 and that amount might end up being RM100 when it got around. That is how inaccurate blogs can be,” he said after the ministry’s monthly assembly at the National Museum yesterday.

Shafie said the recent demonstrations were “compounded” by blogs. “These things do not bring any good to the country,” he said


Yes Mr Minister, it is all the blogger's fault. The inefficient, crony-istic, self-serving and greedy govt had nothing to do with it!

Me was gonna blog about PM's statements but thought what the heck, esp after me found something more inetresting to write about.

As far as me is concerned, let them carry on deluding themselves that their recent losses at the GE was OUR fault.

Fine. Me don't mind taking credit fer that.

Let em continue with this finger pointing shit. Great. The more they ignore the rakyat's pleas, the better. Matter of time before people get really fed up . . .

It's funny you know.. when you look at the online newspapers here..Times, Gurdian..etc... they always have a readers comment/response after each article. Wondering if the local online papers there would dare do something like that!
LLT: They're fuckers indeed. Carry on blogging folks. Freedom of speech(via blogging...etc.) is to kick the gov. in the balls toward submission sooner or later.

that moron minister illustration still thinks ppl are in primary school nowadays...."telephone message game"....without bloggers...a mega project can start off with 2.3b to 4.6b when the project ends....look at PKFZ..

without blogers, no one will know that the govt link CEO's and top shots will get 100% increment of salaries.....right after the oil price increase....

sometimes i wonder when they select them as minister is it because of their position or because they want to see how they respond to statements and make a joke out of it....

Vincent : That's exactly what I meant! The bloggers can now be a check and balance for the govt since every committe appointed by the govt to investigate projects always find there is nothing wrong.

Critical pre-requisite to be a minister : Must be able to make stupid comments or be able to make a good comment stupid!

i don't know who reads our newspapers these days. well, i guess we just can't miss the comics for a good laugh each day.

do clowns, midgets and the queer run the circus?
of course NOT silly, rich, greedy business ppl do.

do these rich, greedy business ppl care?
of course not, it's business. moolah is greater than god. let the animals starve in their cages. let them complain. let the clowns, midgets and the queer entertain the crowd. who cares as long as the moolah keeps rolling in.

what if one of these animals escape or go astray?
just kill it, make it look like an accident, silence the media and deny all allegations. no one will notice, no one. again, bring out the clowns, midgets & the queer - play loud music, the crowd cheers and the show goes on.

Running a circus, it's no joke.
