Reporter creates ISA history

Again, things should not happen had happened. It is ridiculous to hear Home Minister explaining that Sin Chew Daily reporter Tan Hoon Cheng was arrested under ISA and detained under Section 73(1) in order to ensure her safety because her life was under threat. I thought The Internal Security Act (ISA) is used to capture those suspected terrorist or communist? Can ISA be used to protect a person? No matter what, Tan had created ISA history by becoming the shortest ISA detainee in Malaysia record - 18 hours. What make me most irritating is that why those who are telling the truth are being arrested, instead of those who uttered the seditious statements? Furthermore, Tan was just carrying out her duty as a reporter and reporting the truth. I thought the PM and DPM had already acknowleged who was wrong and had apologized to the public. In my opinion, it is another 'flip-flop decision' by the government to arrest and then released the reporter. The explanation given to detain the reporter under ISA was to ensure her safety is totally unacceptable.

Malaysia-Today unblocked

Things should not happen in the first place had happened. The most popular political portal Malaysia-Today which was blocked on Aug 27 by Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC), has been unblocked. I think the government probably has realised that there are no effective ways to block a website. Again, this is another flip-flop decisions and 'goblok' move by government. They really shot themselves in the foot!

My 16-month boy talking over the phone

This photo was taken by my sister-in-law with her handphone and this is definately one of the best. I really like this photo a lot as my 16-month boy looks so natural and lively. It is also not easy to take this kind of photo in the car while it's still moving. Many thanks to Siew Nee.

Hong Kong TVB on Lim Guan Eng

After watching these 3 video clips on Lim Guan Eng, I have started to know him better and in fact I have a lot respect for him. He had sacrificed his dream as an accountant and gone into politics to serve the people regardless pf race or religion. He even went to jail twice. The second time he was jailed just because he defended the grandma of an under-aged Malay girl who claimed having affair with a former chief minister. What I am amazed is that he didn't give up after came out from jail for the second time and continue with his journey in politics and today he is a Penang Chief Minister.

Malaysia-Today got blocked

Yesterday I received an update from Astro News that the most popular political portal Malaysia-Today operated by brave Raja Petra Kamaruddin has been censored by the Malaysia Government and is blocked by country’s largest internet service provider - TMNet. I think the government has most probably overlooked the Multimedia Super Corridor Bill of Guarantees which has promised no internet censorship and is too desperate to implement this without thinking much about the effectiveness, impact and consequences. No matter what, with the information technology, the website still can be assessed via the mirror site at http://mt.harapanmalaysia.com/. Therefore, it is a silly waste of time to block a website. You will only discourage investors to invest in Multimedia Super Corridor and encourage more people to this website.
