MUCH ado about new media. Journo-blogger Bujai has heard something disturbing said to have taken place on Feb 22 at the last Cabinet meeting. It seems that between Rais Yatim and Ahmad Maslan; one Najib Razak's Information Minister and the other his party's Information Chief an idea crystallized based on an internal study that the new/alternative/social media, especially the pro-BN ones, aren't going to have any significant impact for Najib Razak's Barisan Nasional in next General Election.
That was what the then PM Abdullah Ahmad Badawi had been told before PRU12, before the so-called Tsunami, before BN lost five states and the two-thirds in Parliament.
Read Bujai's My friendly message to the PM Office.I hope he has heard wrong. Otherwise, I'd like to know what Rais, Ahmad Maslan and the others named in his latest posting have to say ...
In the past, the people had only tv and radio as their source of information.
ReplyDeleteyup.. today we also have alternative media showing that the government is really practicing the freedom of speech.
DeleteAt present, there are alternative media. Thus giving the people freedom to choose as well as filter the information that they deemed necessary.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the status quo has their work cut out for them
ReplyDeleteAll info from any media, people should know to mark the info. That depend on their own acceptance.
