I was glad I made it to the 1st Malaysian-ASEAN Regional Bloggers Conference (MARBC) at the KL InterContinental today. Not only did I get to meet bloggers from Malaysia, but also counterparts from Brunei, Indonesia and the Philippines.
Hassan Skodeng talked about the 'crap' that littered 'blogosphere' but maintained that bloggers should 'self-regulate'. Ninitalk.wordpress.com urged for "sense and sensibility" to prevail among bloggers on both sides of the political divide while journalism.sg pointed out the absence of the 'usual suspects' at the conference.
The PM concurred that blog readers should be discerning enough to sieve the wheat from the chaff and called for digital inclusion of dissenting bloggers.
