Poll: 12th Malaysia Election, did the internet help?

15 Mar
2008


Information Minister Datuk Seri Zainuddin Maidin aka Zam seems to think otherwise. According to him the Malaysian citizens only believe in the mainstream media, our one-sided news shows and newspapers and alternative media like the internet, blogs, mobile phones and other new age communication media had nothing to do with the shocking outcome witnesed during our recent election.

What do you think,  did the Internet & Blogs Influence The Election Results? Vote here.

Watch his idiotic video.

“Because people trust the newspaper.. more people watched the TV during the election.”

Oh come on, as if relatively, blogs and Internet media did not have a higher hit rate during that time? ;-) Idiotic Zam.

The internet media definately help a lot. As I am an outsider and I heard all over rumourse in Malaysia. That blogger and internet user have spread all the news of bad governance by BN through internet as they can’t voice it out in the mainstream media. So they have decided to vote the opposition for a change, since the present ruling party have seem courupted for 50 years. The result proved to be effective.
