Jeff Ooi vs NSTP & 3

Another day at Duta. The Screenshots blogger goes to court again tomorrow morning for yet another round of the Jeff Ooi vs NSTP and 3 Others. Jeff was originally expected to apply to merge his case with mine, but his lawyer is likely to take a new date pending disposal of the striking out application.
It's going to be a long walk.


Sixth day


Roti canai for breakfast. The roti canai is not in the photo, but you get the picture. The IJN's latest press statement also said Dr M finally had a full shower.

Before this morning's roti canai, the multi-faith doa selamat for the former PM went on smoothly last night. Marina Mahathir was so touched by the turn out at the Blog House. It clearly shows, she said, that her father's heart belongs to all Malaysians.

Jeff Ooi has awesome pictures of the event here while Pok Ku, here, is impressed with the bloggers' effort and the dinner. Picture above by TV Smith.

Get a blog, YBs

Not enough coverage. It seems that Nazri Aziz, whom one has to consider a senior MP and Cabinet minister, was whining the other day about not getting enough coverage in the mainstream media.
A former NST editor happened to be at the function Nazri was officiating and has proposed at the same function, which was a media forum that MPs and Ministers set up their own blogs to reach the people and their constituents.

Jolly good idea. But will they have what it takes to maintain a blog?
Read what Pahit Manis had to say about Nazri and complaining YBs.
