Bloggers can’t be fired
I read with shock and indignation the news on Susan Loone’s site that Nila Tanzil, the Indonesian journalist who sparked off Malaysian tourism minister Ku Nan’s tirade on how bloggers are liars, has been suspended by her TV station because of her criticism of her Visit Malaysia experience.
And to think he can just laugh it off, that arrogant SOB.
Well guess what, Tengku? You can’t fire bloggers. Unless it is to fire us up more to speak up on what you have set in motion here.
But let’s see the positive. What is happening today may have lost the powers that be more than a seat or two in parliament.
And that, my friends, is the good news.
