seems like the "Malaysian Communication and Multimedia Commission" aka "MCMC" is living in the stone age, they thought that by asking all the local ISP's to block the website, it would prevent people from accessing it. however they dun realize that Malaysia is not the only country that has servers and ISP's, furthermore they also dun realize the existence of search engines like Yahoo!, Google and many other more that can easily direct us to the new site. i wonder if our ministers are actually tech savvy or not ? i doubt so.
anyways, malaysia today's website seems to be working fine, making it an insult to the "so called" local IT experts/minsters who tried to block the site. i was reading their article about...
"MCMC 'exercising its power' to tell ISPs to block RPK's site"
and after reading it, i was amazed at the reactions of the rakyat......here are some of them:
"syabas , Hamid Albar, you have done it now>>>>>>>international recognition at last>>>>>straight into the hall of infamy! well done>>>>first step in dismantling bn
government! thank you! "
"congratulation Hamid (Home Minister of Malaysia) you just let the whole wide world know how stupid you are. Blocking a website??? you make me laugh....ha...ha....ha...ha... how stup*g!!!!
i am still reading Malaysia Today at ease. now, look what you have done. you are chasing google away from investing in Malaysia. do you really want Malaysians to rear p*geons as a communication tool."
"Dear Syed & Co,
Well done BN..
Please la.. use some common sense, I would certainly allow RPK to do this noble work because it helps BN from going down to the ground and doing research. End of the month submit your claims for the work RPK has done. On Malaysia Today, BN can get 1st hand information to clear your closet. Just a joke to remind you how efficient & effective is Free Press..
Charles: How did Quenn Elizabeth find out about her pregnancy?
Ong: From the newspaper!! "
"Haiyoooo, mr Albar. Do u know that Malaysia today is NOT THE ONLY site which allows ppl to speak their mind??? i mean serioulsy u might want to google it and search other sites. What are u going to do abt those?? u think u closing down malaysia today will stop ppl from commenting in other sites??? Stop giving this pathetic reasons and live with it! U might just learn something from the comments u get here! And IF i'm not mistaken, i think the site is here for U guys to improve ur self!
Wake up BN!!! God grow UP!!! "
"If Bn doesnt have this type of people working for the govt. then how would we know that the govt doesnt work and that is why we need to change the whole lot of them. They are eventually destroying the whole country."
"Hamid,
I tak marah, cuma kesian sama u........
Cakap u pandai bukan pandai, bodoh bukan bodoh habis.
My 11-year old son also know how to source a subject from internet if he cannot find from one particular website. In this borderless and transparency world of internet, where there is a will there is a way.... The only thing I can do is EMBRACE, provide guidance to my son ........because the more I hide the more curious my son will become...... Wonder if you have heard of Newton's 3rd Law Of Energy ACTION AND REACTION... So, the more suppression you enforce, the more RAKYAT will "MEMBERONTAK"... "
"another pathetic attempt at derailing the opposition from coming into power...seriously pathetic and laughable! BN - dont insult the public!! with ur sodomy bullshit, your DNA clause being coincidental, Najib not being linked to the murder.... if you want to even stand a chance to win any elections from now on get real and fight fairly!"
"It just shows the gov't doesn't learn from their mistakes. They should find out why the rakyat is against the gov't and rectify on the problem rather than banning MT. The HM should realise this by now. Whenever there's an action taken against the rakyat there's a reaction. Be matured politicians, solve problems and not creating all sorts of slanderous remarks against your opponent."
"Even the PKR does not take over, the rakyat will fight you...... Why the BN govt kept doing stupid thing......... Do you know that how many people laughing at you now ? Why dont you shut down the whole Super corridor ? "
"Dear Hard Head Syed Hamid,
Why everytime govt inefficient in tackling matters by themself sure they instructed 3rd party to act for them. Now blocked MT, what next? Control the sales of computers, shut down entire 19 ISPs or stop Tenaga for supplying electricity? Big joke Hamid!"
looks like everything that the governemt is trying to do are all back-firing, for all of you out there, it's time to pray for our country and pray for righteous people to rise up. we love our country and we want the best for our country. it's about time to exercise "Malaysia Boleh" the right way !!! have a nice day all of you
