Government Asked To Curb Bloggers
KUALA LUMPUR, March 29 (Bernama) — The government has to find ways to curtail bloggers from abusing the Internet to spread lies and defame the leaders, said Datuk Ismail Sabri Yaakob (BN-Bera).

“We notice that a lot of bloggers have been sowing the seeds of discord among the races, religions… I believe there must be a limit,” he said in a debate on the royal address in the Dewan Rakyat here today.

He felt that there ought to be a law governing bloggers like those imposed on the print and broadcast media.

“The people believe more in the bloggers than the newspapers… I am aware that a newspaper was censured by the Internal Security Ministry for publishing a sensational story but the bloggers could continue churning out malicious stories,” he said.

How about shut down the internet connection in Malaysia, better, solve the problem once and for all. You curb the bloggers, people still can access to other websites in other countries. When if people have different opinions about the current administration, will you propose government must “curb” the internet access too?

Now is the year 2007, not the year 1907. You can’t stop people to gain information. True is, people know how to find the information nowadays. We are moving forward not standstill.
