Take this one case of utter blindness that never ends :
Lady Chatterleys Lover is an old book and by today’s standard, a classic but a yawner. Might as well unban that by now after about a half century of stupid prohibition by sanctimonious buggers since it is easily downloadable for free anytime. Furthermore these very buggers over rate the standard of English in Bolehland today possessed by those who potentially may be interested in such stories to understand the subtle expressions therein. Humbugs and blind prudes that never vary!

Hmmm… and some says our media has been relaxed, how truly worng they were. 3 years in ‘control’ and couple of newspaper publishers has already been closed. Another term and we’ll read and write on stones.

To my surprise, Malaysia’s standing on RSF list has improve by 11 positions. Didn’t check whether there’s any change of score though. It might be the fact that Malaysia’s freedom of press has not change but other countries scores worst than Malaysia, therefore pushing up your dearest homeland.
