PM ‘disappointed’ with Rais


By Free Malaysia Today

KUALA LUMPUR: Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak is apparently disappointed with Information, Communications and Culture Minister Rais Yatim for lodging police reports against several bloggers.

According to reports in several blogs, the prime minister had mentioned this during his speech at a meeting with a group of bloggers yesterday at his residence in Langgak Duta.

The premier, who used the term “terkilan” (disappointed), said that a dialogue would have been a more reasonable approach.

“He said he will personally ask Rais to explain what many saw as an unnecessary action taken when other means of finding a solution could have been conducted,” stated the Barking Magpie blog.

Rais had filed the police reports against blogger Ahirudin Attan, who runs the popular Rocky’s Bru blog, BigDog and TnT.

The reports were related to the allegation that Rais’ son was one of the beneficiaries of the ministry’s RM1 billion grant to improve broadband access within the nation.

‘Rais needs a doctor to save him’

Another blog, Apanama, also reported that Najib had expressed disappointment with Rais, and warned that the latter’s political future could be at stake.

“Our friend Dr Rais Yatim appears to be in trouble and may need the services of a real (I mean medical) doctor soon. He might also need a ‘political’ doctor to save his career, apart from the dumb spin-doctors who have successfully dragged him into the pit.

“Rais’s decision to lodge the police reports could just be one of his biggest mistakes in his tenure as a minister and politician in Malaysia,” read the posting.
