Brother kejau,

I too was just wondering about this myth...how comes members of political
parties can form Human rights groups and become active members while
journalists or media practioners should be held to different standards?...

I am so sick and tired of people constantly drawing conclusions on areas
they have no expertise on and never bother to either do research or ask the
right people... we have become a bunch of opinionated cyber warriors without
clue on who we are or what direction we ought to take....

It is so sickening reading a bunch of rubbish all day all night...

Lord almighty!!!!!!
