whether it true or not, it is an interesting piece to read.
though some part is hard to believe (eg how can they know that detail), i will still rather believe this article more than the propaganda infested mainstream media. this is the consequences of government controlling our media freedom. a lot of people no longer believe in them.
of course i will not deny that most malaysian are still naive and stupid. just see how majority will react to some manufactured news in newspaper. most malaysian still can't think more that what the media would like us to know. no wonder we are in such a messy country.
i love this country very much and i am sad to see it in this dilapidated state.

Hear hear! The M'sian media has as much credibility in political news as the London tabloids.
Malaysia-Today is leans very heavily towards PKR, or more specifically towards Anwar Ibrahim. It's also pretty easy to see that it's quite hyped-up. However, I still read it occasionally as it serves as a counter-balance to the mainstream newspaper blatantly pro-BN stance.
In more respect, I feel that PAS is a bane for the de-racialisation and de-religionisation of M'sia's political landscape. Pity they are still quite successful in capturing states, if not federal seats. If a multiracial party like PKR/Semangat 46/Berjasa/Parti Negara were to take it's place, this will then propel the M'sian political direction towards a healthier direction in the sense race and religion doesn't play important roles anymore.

Cyrix, you are right that most M'sian print media is somewhat less biased that Harakah or Malaysia-Today. I notice NST under Tan Sri Abdullah Ahmad and his successor Kalimullah M. Hassan is very liberal and open minded. I will however continue voting DAP to be the Parliamentary Opposition and BN as the government as advised by former Editor-in-Chief Tan Sri Abdullah Ahmad in one edition of the New Straits Times. I will keep this wise NST advise for a zero PAS parliament.
Of course, radical as I am, I will go one step further by keeping a zero PKR parliament. I dislike PKR so much due to it being in cahoots with PAS so it too must be expuled from the parliament along with PAS as I did in 1999 and 2004.
As to "a Malaysian" saying he trusts Malaysia-today, I suspect he is a PKR member. Otherwise, why would he suck up to a PKR propaganda mouthpiece? Do you really want to believe "Malaysia-today", which is a propaganda mouthpiece of Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR), which is a group of people in cahoots with PAS' a Talibanist party. As Islam teaches lying is virtuous, Muslim fanatics from PAS, established PKR in such a way Muslims will be a majority while pretending to be multi-religious with the hope to woo non-Muslims. This way Muslims have control of PKR and non-Muslims are like dogs.

Islam doesn't teach lying as a virtue. Stop preaching hate.
