Not all bloggers are stupid, says Zam
KUALA LUMPUR: Information Minister Datuk Seri Zainuddin Maidin says not all bloggers are stupid as some of them are informative, knowledgeable and disseminate positive views on current issues.
The ones that were mostly goblok (stupid, in Indonesian) were political bloggers who float rumours and create hatred among the people, he said yesterday.
He said political bloggers “blatantly abused the freedom of the Internet.”
“Readers of these blogs read them to pass time and for fun, akin to reading a ghost story. The people must be able to distinguish between goblok bloggers and bloggers,” he added.

It's kind of weird to get this kind of statement from the Minister of Information. Previously, some bloggers are being bombarded with call names such as "stupid", "liars", "jobless" and the like. But now, the Minister of Information is saying that not all bloggers are stupid!
Has he seen the light at the end of the tunnel? Or maybe all this while he is playing dumb, just like what our "beloved" Prime Minister is doing all the while.
It is true however, when some said that this country, Malaysia IS a BOLEHLAND country. You can do what ever you feel you wanted to do, as long as you don't act clever as it might insult some people in the society.
Before I penned off (Jose, sebelum berhenti menulis laaa!) I attached a photo off our beloved bartender, Moe from the Simpson, together with this so called article for your pleasant view. Think about the relevant of that character with that of the Minister of Information.
Food for thought??
