Terengganu MB holds dialogue with bloggers
KUALA TERENGGANU: Terengganu Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Ahmad Said has offered to provide bloggers with facts and figures on the state's development so that they will not defame anyone through unverified information posted on their blogs.
"Bloggers must be more responsible and check on the authenticity of the information they receive before publishing it," he said at a dialogue with bloggers at his official residence, Seri Iman, here last night.
About 80 bloggers from Terengganu and elsewhere attended the gathering at the invitation of the menteri besar to exchange views with state government leaders.
State Education, Higher Education, Science, Technology and Human Resource Committee chairman Ahmad Razif Abd Rahman and State Religious Affairs and
Information Committee chairman Khazan Che Mat also attended the dialogue.
The menteri besar said political leaders often end up as victims of libel, and a state government can be toppled through the dissemination of false news about it.
"If this happens, the people will be at the losing end because the government leaders will be unable to implement their programmes as they will no longer be in power," he said.
Ahmad also told the dialogue that the state government most appreciated the contribution of non-governmental organisations to the development of Terengganu.
He said there are almost 1,000 NGOs in the state and that more than 300 are most active and have helped the government a lot, including in the dissemination of information to the people on the development in the state.
"This year, the state government has allocated RM2 million for distribution to all the NGOs to enable them carry out their activities," he said.
para blogger perlu ada etika sebelum menyiarkan sesuatu.
BalasPadamAgree...they too must conduct themselves with integrity as well as with acoutability
PadamJangan sampai blog mereka memakan balik diri mereka sudah kira ok.
BalasPadamSetuju bahawa blogger perlu memastikan penulisan mereka itu adalah berasaskan fakta dan bukan khabar angin yang tidak dipastikan.
BalasPadamHarap dialog bersama bloggers ini boleh menjelaskan isu pembangunan Sabah dengan baik supaya tiada salah faham.
BalasPadamdunia blogger luas dan bebas, namun ia tak brmakna kita perlu keluarkan kenyataan sesuka hati. perlu ada etika dalam berblog.
BalasPadamBloggers seharusnya berkongsi maklumat yang benar dan ada fakta asas. Bukan menyebarkannya fitnah dan hasutan.
Padammemang ramai yang membuat blog secara suka2. bila nak perkatakan sesuatu pun 'suka2' juga. tidak mementingkan etika.
PadamSesetengah blogger memang melampaui batas dan ini boleh mengundang padah. Bukan saja kepada dirinya malah impak artikel yang berunsurkan hasutan dan fitnah tersebut ke atas individu yang dikecam seterusnya masyarakat.
BalasPadamkepada para blogger, dialog ini sangat baik untuk disertai. harap lepas ni blogger tak suka2 lagi untuk menyebarkan cerita tanpa fakta dan bukti2 yang kukuh.
BalasPadamBerikan lebih kepada Fakta dan bukannya rekaan cerita semata-mata.
BalasPadamhanya blogger yang dibiayai oleh mana2 pihak sahaja yang berani menyiarkan maklumat yang tidak tepat.. ini kerana mereka tidak perlu risau jika disaman oleh pihak tertentu kerana ada pihak yang membiayai mereka..
BalasPadamada baiknya dialog seperti ini diadakan bagi menjelaskan kedudukan sebenar atau memberikan apa2 maklumat kepada semua blogger tentang apa sahaja berkaitan dengan kerajaan.. namun saya yakin, pihak pembangkang pasti akan menimbulkan pelbagai spekulasi berkenaan dengan penganjuran dialog ini..
