I'm thinking -- apasal lah Rais Yatim (Menteri Penerangan, Kommunikasi dan Kebudayaan) buat laporan polis terhadap Rocky's Bru, Bigdogdotcom dan Taikors and Taikuns (TnT) mengenai posting RM1billion grant kepada 9 syarikat untuk mempertingkatkan broadband access seluruh negara.
Rais told the Malay mail on Monday that all the allegations about his son being one of the beneficiaries of the grant are not true and he was going to lodge a police report against the blogs.
You know, I read Rocky's Bru, BigDog's and TnT.
Odd...no mention of his son. Rocky's posting " Who Gets Santa Rais' RM1billion Handout?" made no mention of his son but of a "rumour" about "a minister's son" being part of the companies, and then made a link to BigDog's posting "2.6GHz Spectrum: Transparency Is the Way To Go" which did not accuse Rais' son of being a beneficiary of the grant. In fact, BigDog talked about a rumour that a close family member of Rais had lobbied for a share of the grant.
Rumour sahaja, tau. BigDog said he did not believe the rumour to be true because Rais is a respected Cabinet member.
So, BigDog's contention is that when you have this big a grant, you should be tranparent so that you leave no room for such rumours and speculations.
Why...I agree. Absolutely.
TnT made no mention at all of Rais' son, except to borrow Rocky's heading on "Santa Rais" and linked to BigDog's posting.
TnT responded to Rais' police report:
"Minister of Information, Communications and Culture Datuk Seri Rais Yatim
had made a statement that TnT was making allegations of our teaser posting. Readers would note that our teaser remains, well a teaser. Our sourced story carried made no allegations of the Minister, and points rather to Wimax launches and POSSIBILITY of added licenses.
We welcome any investigations for transparency, and can be reached at our official email: tony.ctpmedia@gmail.com.
TnT shall publish all articles it receives upon verification, and GUARANTEES the anonymity of our source."
So... overreacting to the blog postings and ending up making a frivolous police report.
We complain about the police not doing their job. Well, I think we ought to blame ourselves for taking away the police from doing their job. Honestly!
Anyway...Rocky, as we are speaking now, is at the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC), giving his statement.
So, "Wassup, Minister", Rocky asks in his latest posting .
Chill and chill out-lah.
salam, aina,
ReplyDeleteAda dua wajah dlm isu blogger Bigdog, dan lain-lain menimbulkan dakwaan berasaskan khabar angin kononnya Menteri Penerangan DS Rais memberikan kontrak spectrum 2.6MHz kpd syarikat anaknya- dakwaan yg terbukti salah dan palsu.
Apabila DS Rais membuat laporan polis, ramai blogger2 'terkemuka' membebel mengatakan kalau blogger pro Melayu mudah saja diambil tindakan, tetapi Namewee dan lain2 tidak.
Ini tidak patut kerana namewee memang sedang diambil tindakan. Hanya melalui proses perundangan. DS Rais tidak pernah memaafkan namewee seperti disebut sesetengah blogger pro kerajaan/melayu.
Apa yg dilakukan oleh bigdog dan dipanjangkan oleh rocky sesuatu yg tidak harus berlaku, terutama oleh tokoh kewartawanan sepertinya. Walaupun ia berpunca daripada khabar angin, hakikatnya ia telah menimbulkan tanda tanya yg di zaman IT ini mudah bertukar menjadi tuduhan.
Maka diatas faktor inilah DS Rais membuat laporan polis.
Renungkan: sudah agak lama kita dibelenggu kelemahan tanpa berupaya mengambil tindakan signifikan ke atas kesalahan para blogger. Maka dgn episod ini, bukankah DS Rais menjalankan tugasnya sbg menteri bertanggung jawab ke atas media?
Dia berani mengambil tindakan, dan bukankah ini yg perlu dicontohi? Berani kerana benar.
Dan pada blogger2 yg mengutuk kononnya dia pilih kasih cuba menghukum mereka, kumpulan ini perlu sedar apa yg dilakukan rocky dan bigdog sebenarnya dituju kpd pemimpin melayu. Dahlah tuduhan palsu, perbuatan mereka itu bukan membantu memantapkan kedudukan melayu/kerajaan, tetapi lagi melemahkan dgn cara membuka ruang utk diperlekeh dan ditertawakan oleh pembangkang.
Siapakah blogger2 berkenaan hingga kerajaan dan hak asasi seseorang perlu tunduk kpd mereka?
Yes, from the beginning I have been of the opinion that this imbroglio over the allocation of the 2.6GHz spectrum has been hijacked and carried through the wrong channel to the hilt.
ReplyDeleteWhat I can see is the MCMC themselves should have done their job and announced the recipients formally ALONG with the accompanying caveats.
With that slip due to lack of proactiveness on the part of the MCMC, a 'teaser' exercise by Big Dog and Rocky has turned ugly.
I don't blame Rais, as being the minister in charge wouldn't he be annoyed and hurt now that his flesh and blood has been dragged along?
It is his ministry's jurisdiction - good, let him handle it, as no one is beyond reproach - not even rocky or big dog.
Mungkin ikut protokol kut puan..
ReplyDeleteAda kala sama kawan2 nak ambil tindakan, tak manis, hai kenal sejak beringus lagi, nanti you dig my hole he will dig your hole..
Dulu I pun kena macam nih.. mereka berdepan buddy2 sampai anak cucu, guna pakai saya untuk hentam each other kat belakang..Kita pula jadi tension simpan rahsia mereka supaya tak jadi pergaduhan keluarga mereka.
FAHAM TAK?
So kena cari orang tengah jadi SCAPEGOAT..
Hope Rocky takes care, jangan jadi mainan orang2 macam ni.
MAKCIK
Poor thing. Parodies, satires, jokes, cartoons etc are not allowed.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the new feudal age. Is this part of the new generation gap?
Hopefully common sense will prevail.
A GOOD MAN DOES NOTHING.
Bulan Mei Ratu Dangdut Gerudi, Inul Daratista tidak dibenarkan membuat dua konsert di Sabah.
ReplyDeleteBegitu juga penyanyi sensasi dan seksi Amerika Beyonce Knowles turut di ban dari membuat persembahan.
Macam mana pula artis gay Adam Lambert boleh dibenarkan? Ini dah luar tabie.
Ini akan memberi satu tamparan malu kepada kerajaan Najib Tun Razak. Semasa Anwar sedang dibicara di mahkamah atas tuduhan sodomi, kerajaan mempromosi gaya hidup luar tabie gay .
Salam anon@1:42PM,
ReplyDeletememang, DS Rais berhak membuat laporan polis. Tapi, dlm pendapat saya, ini bukan menunjukkan keberanian beliau.
dan langsung tidak menunjukkan sikap tanggungjawab terhadap media.
bigdog dan rocky tidak menulis posting menuduh anak DS Rais mendapat contract dari peruntukan RM1billion.
mereka hanya menyebut yang ada "rumour", khabar angin sahaja.
tak salah, kalau blog menyebut ada khabar angin mengatakan sedemikian.
Bagus yang DS Rais membuat penafian yg tegas.
Di antara bapak2 menteri kita pun, ada yg kena lebih teruk dari itu. Tuduhan terus. Tapi mereka tak melatah.
Jadi, buat apa DS Rais nak buat laporan polis?
Sudah ada tanda tanya...itu-lah timbul nya khabar angin.
Soal Namawee itu, saya tak ingin nak sentuh. Different story. Dia budak nakal.
Terima kasih
anon@1:55PM,
ReplyDeletewell, it has turned ugly because the minister chose to make a police report.
and true, no one is beyond reproach. not even the minister. but see, the mcmc is under the Rais' ministry.
anyway, i believe Rais shouldn't have made the police report against the postings in Bigdog, Rocky's Bru and TnT.
But I hope it goes to court because perhaps the court will prove who is the frivolous and idiotic between them.
you think the bloggers have committed a crime/offence under the penal code by mentioning that there is a rumour blahblahblah....?
ya atau tidak,Betul atau salah bukan terletak di tangan kita,Yang pastinya menfitnah,menadu domba dan menuduh yang belum pasti,dan tidak tahu hujung pangkal nya,bukan budaya kita.
ReplyDeleteApatah lagi menjatuhkan maruah orang....berdosa tu.Bukan nak menbela tapi....maaf cakap la,fikir - fikir kan lah.Ada akal guna...jangan sampai kita jadi buta hati buta minda.
