Social media ban in crisis gets an aye
Personally, I think it's a totally insidious bullshit.
I dare say that it could be an early step to further muzzle Malaysians.
Since this report is by NST , which was and is linked to the powers that be, I'm taking it as an early warning that the government may in future shut down the social media if it deems the country as being in crisis.
I believe they will use whatever survey quoted in the report to tell everyone that Malaysians are okay being shut up in time of crisis.
Who the hell exactly these people who did the survey?
Not even the previous BN government, said being so evil, had ever tried to shut down the social media.
Heck, not even the communist government in Beijing had resorted to such measure to clamp down on the ongoing protests in Hong Kong.
The way I see it, it's the government's job to manage the flow of information without shutting down channels of information.
It's definitely not its bloody job to shut up people.
When they campaigned for GE14 the Pakatan leaders promised freedom of this and that, but now that they are in power, they are mulling to shut up everyone, are they?
Crisis? What is that? Is it for the government to define what is a crisis?
This currently terrible haze is a crisis to me. Does it mean the government should shut down the social media?
Anti-government protesters defying police in down town KL. Is that a crisis that warrants the government to shut down social media?
If yes, then the people of previous BN government were really fools for not doing it back then during all those Bersih rallies and such.
Well, let's wait and see where this whole thing is leading to.
For all I know, this Pakatan government may be worse than the communist regime in Beijing.
....mengingatkan saya kepada PM4...moga-moga our current PM7 tidak menjadi seperti PM4...andai tiada aral melintang, tidak lah kita seolah-olah keluar dari mulut buaya...masuk pula ke mulut alligator...

BN under Nahin is rock bottom. Nothing is worst than that.
DeleteCommunist China shoot those who committed bribery. Robin hood najib will definitely be found guilty. So if PH dont shoot Najib will PH be better than Communist China.
ReplyDeleteThis is to be expected of the powers that be, whether Pakatan or BN, whilst in the wider world, private operators of giant social media sites with worldwide access are taking it upon themselves to downplay content deemed "inappropriate" or even to remove such content creators from their site.
ReplyDeleteWhen the public began to access the Internet in from around 1992, those who had Internet access were a small minority, so anything was allowed on the Internet and "free speech online" was the big thing, both in the advanced countries and in Malaysia.
However now that broadband penetration in Malaysia is close to 80% and almost everyone has Internet access, either on a PC, smartphone or a tablet, with the ability to make opinions and content posted go viral very fast, the Internet and especially social media has become a mass media with a bigger influence upon public opinion than traditional mainstream media, so the powers that be deem it necessary to try to curtail free speech online.
In principle, this is not necessarily wrong, especially if the posts online can lead to social instability and violence, so it depends upon the nature of the message conveyed.
On the other hand, if it is just an opinion or a message critical of policies or actions of the ruling government, then it would not be justified to ban it.
BTW. You keep saying "like communist"
ReplyDeleteHow about "like fascist".
Fascism is the most extreme form of capitalist rule, where when capitalist democratic processes are abandoned and dictatorial brute force rule is applied, such as in Italy under Mussolini, in Nazi Germany, in Spain under Franco, under military juntas (governments), under emergency rule, in wartime and so forth.
The Pakatan government can be said to be liberal fascists, in how they have banned smoking in restaurants, pubs and bars in such a totalitarian way.
For instance, did you know of the Nazi roots of the environmental movement, when our common perception of environmentalists are peace loving, long haired hippies protesting.
This video is about 27 minutes long.

The speaker, Magan Beets is a member of or is affiliated with the Larouche Political Action Committee which advocated the politics of Lyndon La Rouche, a radical American politician who advocates policies of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt - i.e. a New Deal Democrat, and La Louche wants the U.S. to return to the kind of scientific and technological development during the early post-WW2 period up till the Kennedy era.
Megan Beets rightly out how today's environmentalists tend to advocate against development which would be in the interests of the people of under-developed and of developing countries, and I tend to agree, though I cannot accept Megan's argument that a world population of 100 billioAlso, if you look closely, you may find that environmentalists tend to be from rather privileged, n people will be a good thing.
Anyway, as has been observed, birthrates tend to naturally drop, even to below the replacement level, the more developed a country and the higher the standard of living, due to the economic demands of raising and educating children and as parents feel less need to have many children as an insurance policy in their old age.
If you go back to the green movement in Germany towards the end of the 1800s and the early 1900s, you will find that it was a movement advocated and supported by the landed aristocracy against the rise of industrialisation in Germany at the time, mixed with traditional European mysticism and obscurantism, including concepts of racial superiority.
The Wondervogel movement in Germany around the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries was a kind of similar to the hippie movement in the U.S. and the west in the 1960s.
"What is the Wandervogel vs 1960s hippie movement? How do Subcultures form? by Daily Renegade"

If you look at their backgrounds, you may well find that most environmentalists today come from fairly privileged, middle class backgrounds, who feeling materially secure, have the time to turn to other issues unrelated to their survival, and as Dr. Patrick Moore pointed out, Greenpeace had metamorphosised into an anti-human movement which disregards the interests of people, especially lower-income people and people of the developing world.
Here's a another good one by Dr. Patrick Moore.

Whilst there is some truth in what Dr. Patrick Moore says about the impracticality of solar and wind power, however he tends to ignore the potential for prices of solar panels to drop as the technology improves.
