My internet at home been down for a few days now, which is a terrible time to catch a cough. (Big thanks to my homies at ACTS who provided free medical care! :D )
So, a 1000 apologies for a shortcut, but this KeADILan statement pretty much sums up my feeling on the matter:
Government should keep promise to MSC
Parti Keadilan Rakyat deplores the instruction given by the MCMC to all Malaysian Internet Service Providers to block access to the website Malaysia Today.
This decision is tantamount to internet censorship and is the latest onslaught on the civil liberties that are the right of all Malaysians. It is also a desperate act by the Barisan Nasional government that is still reeling from its repeated defeats and refusing to listen to the clear signals demonstrated by the rakyat time and again via the ballot box.
The grounds given that Malaysia Today is a seditious website are completely baseless and unfounded in any principle of law, given that there are ample laws which govern such activities and there has yet to be a single court in all of Malaysia that has found the website to contain seditious content.
Once again, the government has shown complete contempt for the principle of being innocent until proven guilty.
As we have seen throughout the world, “pre-emptive strikes” such as these are weak and pathetic attempts to hide a desperation borne of absolute moral bankruptcy.
We also view with seriousness the possibility that this is merely the first step in a comprehensive and reprehensible attempt to curb the access of conscientious Malaysians to the Internet, which in the past few years has been the bastion of freedom for all seeking any views alternative to the propaganda of the BN dominated mainstream media.
KeADILan calls upon the MCMC and the government to keep its promise to the MSC and to immediately revoke this order, and resist any temptation to arrogantly show callous disregard for the right of Malaysians to access alternative information.

umno government of today is of the same of saifool.
Both uses the anus to think.
The moment umno saw the votes count of P.Pauh the moment they have spontaneous constipation.
At exactly 6.00pm while the votes tabulating half way done at P.Pauh they pulled the plug off of Malaysia today website.
After 6.00 pm , RPK ’s Malaysia Today is no longer accessible.
But one can surf porno sites , sites that promotes anti islam , sites that promotes pirated movies , sites that promotes anal sex but we can’t access Malaysia Today!
umno government always emphasis “follow the law”.
They are the same one’s who floated the laws and escapes by giving out nonsense reasons.
MCMC is run by fools and idiots. Chairman – Halim Shafie gave an event consultancy job to his sweeheart company…Dato’ Suria. The COO, the Shairil boy, pretend to be smart but actually fooled around. he even created bad scenarios for previous Chairman with Ministry, MIMOS and others…he’s just a boy and a crony to Khairy.
The others are fools too! why are we suprise.

The BN Government is afraid more cans of worms will be spilled by RPK so they banned his blogsite and because of this Present Moronic Government is corrupted and dirty therefore on the pretext of helping the Rakyats, they could swindle and plunder more money from the Budget Deficit 2009 and from which with most of the deficit Money coming from Petronas. Beware that the Money allocated is for their own BN Prime Minister’s and Cronies’ pockets expenditure and not for helping the Rakyats. Look for example at the Crystal Mosque’s and Mariner Club’s Fiasco in Terengganu’s Billions in Wang Ehsan, Billions had been lost as white elephants. Also Johore’s Scenic Bridge, Penang’s Second Bridge & LRT Projects are canceled at their whims and fancies at the last minutes and this very scenarios could happen again despite being the promised Projects in the Budget 2009 as anything could happen last minutes with the Flip Flop, Incompetent and Sleeping PeeM in Power.
The same could happen to all the empty promises of aid and help to the Rakyats these could all be lip service only unless it is monitored by reputable NGOs. On the irreversible Food Prices inflation, the unnecessary Moronic previous price hike on Petrol & Diesel had caused great permanent damage to the Food Price Structure and even if the price cut to Petrol and Diesel revert to their original prices prior to their hike, it will not revert the Food prices back to their original state and only the PeeM is to be solely blamed for his unwarranted Fuel Price Hike. His 2009 budget did not help the Rakyats’ quelled their immediate hardship suffered nor did that help them solve their Transport Problems immediately with multiple schemes but none available immediately with all the empty rhoterics but nothing concrete that could solve their immediate problems after years of neglect from this incompetent sleeping PeeM. Come Sept 16, 2008 send him home to sleep he is no longer needed.
