The rise of new media is a significant phenomenon that no one could afford to ignore it. It has in a way changed the way people communicate to each other, the way business people conduct businesses and in fact the way we live our daily lives. As such, it goes without saying that it has changed the way we play politics.
New media appears to emerge as an omnipotent power that all try to understand and master. But, until today no one seems to have any idea the exact extent of its influences and impacts on the latest rather interesting political landscape in Malaysia. Could it be a new-found Democratization-making power or another Freedom- destructing weapon of mass destruction?
Come to listen and reason out yourselves!

Hi Yaya, of course I am interested to read that you recommended. The daily charges can be arranged later, may be, in the form of how many cups of Kopi-O!
BTW, hope you could help invite your media friends to come and listen to Oon Yeoh. He is quite an interesting guy with unique credentials that combine New Media technology, Journalism and philosophy.
See you this Saturday!
