Malaysian blogger RantingsbyMM wants to go on strike. Rocky's bru will also join the strike: “I do solemnly and sincerely join Marina and my blogging bros in declaring utter disgust at politicians who are taking Malaysian politics and Malaysians down into the pits of shame in the name of their own glory.”

This stupid strike is confined to only a few individuals. It is NOT representative of the Malaysian blogsphere and therefore, the title is MISLEADING.

Please read posts and comments on these blogs to know that this strike does not get any support from the bloggers at large. No one else is striking accept 2-3 bloggers.
