This election is Junior vs Senior votes, where Junior listen to surface sweet talk by alternative voices (DAP or PAS) and senior in deniel suffering from the result. This time in Malaysia, if not because of insensitive Barisan National leaders, any tom, dick and harry from DAP or PAS will win. Jeff Ooi or old lady, as long recognized as alternative party will win.

The good news is the Barisan National bad apples like Selangor gov officers, the Indian gangster, etc, were judged by the people. The sad news is the changing power from one monster to another new monster, still blood suckers.

Blog is ok if stated it’s not true or just assuptions. It’s not ok if pretend to be valid information but actually baseless. Blogging if getting personal to defame people is not a good practice. Ethically its not right. Jeff ooi from Malaysia was actively posting his blogs and actively joining event making him activist, but that doesn’t mean he can simply defaming many people. Self control is very important is healthy blogging is to goes on.

[...] Last night I, too, was enraptured. A post written by Deborah Ann Dilley, summarizing the reactions of Kurdish and Turkish bloggers to recent protests in Turkey had me spellbound. This is the very best of what blogging can be, I thought to myself. But then I questioned, am I even going to remember this in a few months? And if I don’t remember it, if there’s no lesson learned, or moral taken away, then there was no real reason to read it in the first place right? I mean, wouldn’t I be just as well-served watching a soap opera or reading a romance novel? Or not doing anything at all? [...]

[...] Shahram Kholdi, UK based blogger & academic, has analysed Roya Hakakian’s piece in the Wall Street journal. Mrs. Hakakian said there is no real solidarity between Iranians to back protest movements such as bus strike. Mr.Kholdi writes: “I agree with Roya that the Iranian Human Rights Activist Community has failed to show the much expected solidarity, not only in supporting Tehran’s Bus Drivers’ Strike, but also in acting upon many other instances of severe violation of human rights. We, those of us who claim to promote human rights (especially those of us who prefer to focus on Iran) to ensure that the Tehran’s Bus Drivers’ Strike to be appear as frequently as possible on the front page of as many major Western newspapers. Iranian human rights activists have failed to mount a publicity campaign throughout the Western media to expose the most recent atrocities committed by the Islamic Republic’s Judiciary-Intelligence complex internationally. From the young female journalist Elham Forutan, who was even rumoured to have attempted suicide in the Evin prison, to the Bus Drivers’ Strike, we could and should have done more and we have not. I disagree with her that we have not been doing much at all. At least in the blogosphere, there have been many who have been active to ensure that the voice of the Striking Bus Drivers to be echoed as much as possible. Unfortunately, the Blogosphere’s reach is limited and cannot be exaggerated. Starting with Regime Change Iran in December 2005, to Freethoughts Babak Seradjeh’s piece . Indeed, Farid Pouya covered on Global Voices online, as well as his own weblog. These are just two examples, there are many others. [...]

[...] Unfortunately, not everyone in Caracas understood the enormous potential for building social networks and starting partnerships that can arise in the WSF. There are a lot of people still grieving because they won’t be able to go out naked to have their picture taken by Spencer Tunick. Others are simply excited because Richard Stallman (ES), leader of the free software movement, will be in Venezuela. [...]

…My heart’s in Accra » Who’s Watching in Addis? — Tue, 08 Nov 2005 16:02:13 +0000

[...] Global Voices has been trying to follow both the violent suppression of street protests in Addis Ababa and the ongoing rioting in Paris suburbs. A comment on a roundup I posted of news from Ethiopia links the two events in an interesting way: On the way home I saw 2 soldiers pummeling a man with their boots in Ayer Tena- not beating the living hell out of him, but they had him on the ground taunting him- in broad daylight. He was empty handed and was showing them so, he was well dressed-a student-type, so no excuse to call him a looting hooligan with a hand grenade. On Thursday 3 people were shot at Tor Hayloch on the way back from the Eid morning prayer- their relatives could not remove the body unless it was paid for (100-300 Birr) and they signed a prepared form (not some slip of paper rustled up in a second) saying that the dead was a criminal. Even a criminal gets to stand trial, only a murder threatening to kill further would be shot dead, not someone caught in the act of stealing (if at all) So in France 1000+ cars have been burnt, police shot at by rioters… and not one rioters has met an untimely death. If the French government took steps similar to those taken by the authorities here in Addis what would the world say? There’d be outrage! But for Ethiopia, Meles’ democracy is just good enough for Africans, double standards… [...]
