  4. Thank you anti bowmau,
    we have just finished our first session. Very enlightening. Our friends from spoke online remind me of most Malaysian bloggers under Pak Lah, before our evolution. There are 4.8 million bloggers in Indonesia alone, 30 million citizens in the Philippines and another 30 million in Thailand.
    A common issue is freedom of information. Internet freedom and the need to organize.

    What happened to the anti-establishment bloggerati?

    Persona non grata?

    Or was a govt presence at this event dependent on their non-presence?

    Latok Bru,

    Buku skandal seks vip MD MUTALIB lebih menjurus kepada cerita2 seks untuk ransangkan hawa nafsu. tak ada nama vip pun yang tertera. Ini penulis perlu masuk penjara sebab sebar buku seks. Apa haram punya penulis seks.

    Best regards,
    Anak Latok Rais yatim punya nenek.
