I have decided to reopen the comment section for this blog. You can now leave a comment and share your thoughts here.
I closed the comment section in October 2007 because I felt that the commentors were abusing their freedom of expression with constant bashing back then and quite often without meaningful conversations.
It’s not that the situation has been improving… from reading other blogs, I’ve noticed that the trend is not getting better at all. There are still some rational netizens around, but most netizens are often biased in various issues without seeing it from an open point of view… while some of the netizens are just hopelessly radical and aggressive.
The thing that has changed though, is my personal perception. I believe I have more maturity in handling the comments, and I believe that with more interaction I could have better chances to spread moderation and to help fellow Malaysians to share more responsibilities while expressing our opinions freely.
It’s also my hope that I could developed a place for more meaningful discussion among Malaysians rather than common bashings and slandering.
Contrary to most bloggers who champion freedom of speech, I prioritised responsible words far more than the freedom of expression. So, there are a few simple rules to follow… besides that, just feel free to share your thoughts.
