Tak apa...Kesian sekali bila tengok bro. kena batai. Tak apalah, jangan putus asa, masih ramai yang sokong bro termasuk saya.<BR/><BR/>Kalau takut ombak, janganlah berumah di tepi pantai. Begitulah setelah memberanikan diri untuk blog, hadapilah keadaan ini penuh tabah dan sabar. Saya tahu bro. pun dah lama fikir dengan masak sebelum mengambil keputusan menjadi blogger seperti sekarang.<BR/><BR/>Memang ramai yang tidak suka MCA, dan bila tak suka MCA, maka tak sukalah Star, dan bila tak suka Star, maka dengan sendirinya tak sukalah Ketua Editornya. Itulah situasi yang dihadapi oleh Bro.<BR/><BR/>Saya percaya terdapat segelintir manusia yang suka batai orang. Bila sudah batai, hatinya pun puas dan akan rasa seronok kerana dapat lepaskan geram ke atas orang yang dimusuhinya. Inilah yang telah berlaku dalam sebahagian komen yang diterima. <BR/><BR/>Bro perlu sedar kita tidak akan memuaskan hati semua orang walaupun kita telah melakukan yang terbaik. Harap janganlah ambil hati sangat kerana memang selama ini ramai musuh sudah lama tunggu untuk batai Bro secara habis-habisan.<BR/><BR/>Saya percaya orang-orang yang batai Bro adalah orang yang jarang membaca tulisan Bro. Jika diikuti dengan mendalam, saya percaya tulisan Bro lebih mementingkan perpaduan kaum, menolak penyelewengan dan penyalahgunaan kuasa pemimpin BN, kerap mendedahkan sikap angkuh pemimpin BN, menegakkan keadilan tanpa sengaja menonjolkan kebaikan tokoh-tokoh MCA. <BR/><BR/>Saya turut kesal terdapat segelintir pengirim yang sengaja menggunakan kepercayaan agama untuk mengutuk Bro. Saya harap budaya ini tidak diteruskan kerana kita memang harapkan 'New Malaysia' agar menjadi kenyataan.<BR/><BR/>Akhir sekali, saya harap Bro boleh meluangkan masa dengan membalas walaupun bukan semua, tulisan-tulisan yang dihantarkan kepada Bro. Saya percaya ramai akan rasa gembira dan tertunggu-tunggu jawapan daripada Bro. Say Hello pun tak kisah lah, janji Bro membalasnya.<BR/><BR/>Maaf saya hanya panggil saudara sebagai Bro sahaja kerana sejak dapat gelaran Datuk, saya masih belum jumpa Bro sampai hari ini. Mungkin satu hari nanti, saya dapat berjumpa dan memanggil Bro dengan Datuk buat pertama kalinya, sejak hampir 20 tahun kita tidak bertemu.<BR/><BR/>Take care.

A lot of us knew the 5 great Prime Ministers before Pak Lah and what mirrored their great administration in each of their own ways was a clean, vocal and caring press. Sadly since Pak Lah took over especially, the NST, MM and Star have all become political mouthpieceof Putrajay and left the people no choice but to abstain from giving any credibility to the mainstreammedia.<BR/>Change this dato, the Star used to be to brave and independant paper! let us go back to what made this nation great make our children proud to be Malaysians. Let us wave the flag at football games, sing the national anthem loudly, have freinds of all races come over for lunch, dinner, deepavali, raya, CNY and let us all mix as one like we used to in the good old '60's ,70's & 80's.<BR/><BR/>Let us trust our leaders in government and talk of malaysia in a real sense of pride to our neighbours in singapore like we used to when we malaysians KNEW and believed that we were better in every ways then them in a friendly but Abang and adik soret of way.<BR/><BR/>The press MUST do its part and you Dato can make the change.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-710203542819293503.post-45085563472570055322008-05-04T22:38:00.000+08:002008-05-04T22:38:00.000+08:00Sorry, to add, there is nothing new about your "Ne...Sorry, to add, there is nothing new about your "New Malaysia" blog.

This is the same argument for criminals who say that "I've no choice but to <I>cari makan</I> by stealing, robbing, pimping, etc." <BR/><BR/>But it must be hard for after all, is this blog supposed to express your personal views or just simply another public relations exercise?<BR/><BR/>You've hardly said anything that you've not said before or in your articles in the <I>Star</I>.<BR/><BR/>We want to know your views on the Altantuya case, not just reporting the Raja Petra's arrest and bodeking other bloggers by linking them. <BR/><BR/>Blogosphere is quite different from the local media.
