......

I'm still here. The thing is I find it is hard to write nowadays. My life was quite hectic. From my thesis to my work, it all requires extra attention. I think I have a 'crisis identity' for this blog. I'm not sure what topic I should post here. I like to write about many things. But if I dont focus to one or two things only it will be rojak nanti. eheh...
politics, finance, sports, lifestyles, diary, entertainments and the list go on. huh...

and what is all the fuss about sharifah amani now? stoney explained in very emotional entry about how her being very arrogant nowadays huh... and of course the famous "i sound stupid speaking in Malay"... for me that wasn't an issue at all. if she's more comfortable in english let her be.

p/s: "i sound stupid in English, i know :)"

Aisehman is back...

When Aisehman told his reader that he wanna stop blogging for a while I somewhat quite frustrated. Is this gonna be like Brand Malaysia's Mack who stop blogging after his writing has enlightened others. Fortunately Aisehman has come back after a hiatus that lasted 5 days. And I could say that he's back with a bang. Love it. Keep on blogging mister.

Again on unrelated matter. We should have this system a long time ago. Heck, it's better late than never huh. So they say.

Monday Blues... (again... sigh...)

Now that my colleagues read my blog, so if I wanna talk or write about them or something that happened in the office I need to be more discreet. Something like this maybe:

Yesterday, this guy make me really angry. He/she should be smacked in the head till the sanity kicks back. I'm angry because of this. He/she shouldn't be doing that.

That's when things went bad. If things goes well:

I have this really cool friend. Working with me. He/she really cool because he/she used to do that. Bla bla bla...

:) ehehe... cheers


On an unrelated notes, City reveals that her pet name for Kay was Pak Besar. Ooo 'BESAR' ke... No wonder... ;)

So beware guys. Our hope for freedom and openness to state our arguments not yet come our way.
PM: Those who spread untruths on the Net will be detained

By IAN MCINTYRE

KUALA TERENGGANU: The Prime Minister has issued a warning – those who spread untruths and slander on the Internet will face the law.

If information in blogs, websites and online portals were incorrect, bordered on slander, caused disturbance or compelled the public to lose faith in the nation’s economic policies, their authors would be detained for investigation, said Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi.

“We cannot allow such matters to flow through uncontrolled,” he told newsmen after attending a briefing on the proposed Islamic Civilisation Park in Pulau Wan Man here.

“They say all kinds of things, make all kinds of dubious claims. We cannot allow them to abuse the freedom earned under the media. If left alone, they can say or pass on all kinds of things.”

Abdullah also said that those who sent out such information via short message system (SMS) would also be held accountable.

“If they abuse the freedom – more than the present freedom given without any restriction – we cannot allow it,” he declared.

“Where in the world is there such a freedom, where one can freely spread incorrect information and slander without having to own up to it?”

Asked if he was calling for a control mechanism, Abdullah said he would leave it to the police to investigate first.

It was reported recently that the Internal Security Ministry was investigating several online sites following a string of misreporting that caused tension and confusion among Internet users.

Earlier, the Prime Minister was briefed on the proposed park’s facilities. It will have 21 replicas of historical monuments that feature Islamic architecture, including the National Mosque (Malaysia), the Grand Mosque (Mecca), the Dome of Rock (Jerusalem) and the Taj Mahal (India).

The centrepiece of the RM250-million park, which will be completed in June next year, will be a crystal mosque which can accommodate 800 people.

Abdullah also opened a nipah (mangrove palm) sap collection and processing centre in Kelulut, Marang, here.

He said the palm had long existed in the country but only its sap had been tapped so far to produce a drink while its parts had not been commercially exploited.

“The drink has now been bottled and marketed to as far as West Asia,” he said.

Abdullah said nipah, abundant along rivers in Terengganu, should be further exploited to produce more products such as brown sugar, vinegar and flavour for ice cream.

Fab Tree Hab Living Tree House

Is this a cool new type of house or what?


You can read about it more here.

How credible are we?

Our own Information Minister Datuk Zainuddin Maidin (ZAM) now have taking steps to control Net media. You can read it (here, here and here).

“We need to have a similar form of control over Internet media and blogs, as the medium is used to spread unfounded allegations that pose a threat to national security and racial unity,” he added.

Basically what he is saying is that "mainstream media had gained credibility because of the laws making them responsible for what they published."
I say this is not entirely true. Most of the bloggers, blog or write for their own satisfaction. It's not a job. It's their own way of expressing themself. SO most of them write about what they like. They do research too. Although most of them was based on the Internet, but still it's a research. It was backed by others. So how can you say that bloggers didn't have credibility? Bulls**t.

Mainstream media sometimes did the same. They just do their research in the internet and come up with an articles. Do you guys remember the stupid journalist and editor who 'rocks' the anime and manga fans. (here) The journalist writes an articles with a totally wrong facts. It was a very hot topic last time if I can recall.

So, it was wrong for you to write an article with the wrong facts. Get your facts right. Today I found another article with a wrong fact. It's about Joey. The author wrote that Joey attracted to Gina but the facts is Gina's is his sister. The point here is how can ZAM says that Net media isn't credible? You should probably make sure the mainstream media deliver the facts right and as a whole first. If they are, there's no need for people to turn their heads to Net media. It's all because there is so much information here than mainstream media.

What can I say, lately all you can read in the mainstream media was the story of Siti and her datuk or Mawi and his ex-fiance. Blargghhh....
