Malaysian politics on youtube

Lately all the news is full of the global economic disaster, its fightening. I cannot even think what will happen to resources for disabled people, benefit recipients because their councils have had their bank deposits frozen.

I went back to look for Malaysia news, why? I think part of me still think of Malaysia as home and I want to keep  up with its politics and news. Its like reading the monthly supplements not the daily tabloids or broadsheet newspapers.

I found a good way of catching up on the Malaysian scene at Malaysiakini on youtube. Okay, its more like the editorials than really catching the news - for that I read The Star online - but it is good to hear voices of lecturers at universities, proffesionals ..somebody mentioned an 'educated voting public' - that has such a resonance in the US elections now...but then, I don't think education has any impact on intelligent voting there...ah well.....

it is so good to hear Malaysian voices.

p/s I was told that the one of the places to really catch up on Malaysian news is Bernard Khoo's blog.
