It’s good to see Malaysian politician do blogging. In the old days, it’s always media doing one-way broadcasting news. And they choose what you could read, they interpret in ways they’d like to, in certain way their freedom on news is still very restricted — because of Malaysia government control of news casting.

Even in days of Internet being adapted widely as the alternative channel for news or information, you wouldn’t get to know opinion of politician in person. That partly because what we read on web is mostly written, heard, drafted by some one else instead of the particular person. With blog, nope, with more politician (or more persons in authority) joined the blogosphere, we can percept their messages in first hand. People could directly feedback (comments) and more importantly, through the constant reading of a people’s blog, you would most likely understand where this person stands. It’s good we could have that kind of understanding and communication with our own country’s polictian, isn’t it?

So far I knew there’s blog of Lim Kit Siang and Teresa Kok. Any other M’sian politician’s blog you know of?
