| New Radio Show in Malaysia Disrupted Posted: 26 Mar 2013 04:54 PM PDT KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia—The founder of a new radio program aimed at airing voices challenging Malaysia’s ruling party blamed a cyberattack for disrupting her debut show. The two-hour program, called Radio Free Malaysia, aired Monday on traditional radio airwaves and through Internet audio streaming. But the first hour of the Internet streaming audio couldn’t be heard because of a “denial-of-service” attack, in which an overwhelming number of communication requests forced the site to be shut down, said founder Clare Rewcastle Brown, a former BBC journalist. The radio distribution of the program went smoothly. “These were well-coordinated attacks aimed at silencing us,” said Ms. Brown, who is based in London. She accused supporters of Malaysia’s ruling coalition—the National Front—of being behind the disruption of her program. She hosts a blog—the Sarawak Report—in Malaysia as well. It faced a similar cyberattack last week, she said. She believes that attack was sparked by National Front supporters upset by a antigovernment video posted elsewhere. She said she hasn’t sought investigations into the incidents. The Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission, which regulates local media, declined to comment. Ms. Brown launched her daily Radio Free Malaysia in the run-up to Malaysia’s general election, which must held by the end of June and is expected to be the most competitive in its history. James Chin, a fellow at Singapore’s Institute of Southeast Asian Studies doubts Radio Free Malaysia will affect the race. “A lot will depend on how many will actually tune in,” he said. The National Front coalition, which has been in power since Malaysia gained independence from Britain in 1957, is frequently accused of heavy-handedness in its dealing with the few independent newspapers and TV stations in the Southeast Asian country. Government-run or backed media outlets pump out the government’s positions while targeting opposition politicians, leaving little room for voices of dissent, critics say. Malaysia was ranked the 145th worst country on press freedom of 179 countries studied by Reporters Without Borders. “There is a crisis of confidence definitely with print and certainly with TV,” said Masjaliza Hamzah, chief executive at the Center for Independent Journalism, a media advocacy group based in Kuala Lumpur. Ms. Brown’s first show featured Malaysia’s opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim and Pan-Malaysian Islamist party’s leader Dzulkefly Ahmad. “We will also be knocking on the doors of the National Front politicians to have them on the program,” Ms. Brown said. Ms. Brown—who is married to Andrew Brown, the younger brother of former British Prime Minister Gordon Brown—said her London base will keep her beyond the reach of Malaysian broadcast rules, which in turn will help her in getting out the views of opposing politicians and others. Under current regulation, local radio channels are required to inform the information and broadcasting regulator of interviews in advance. Often the regulator bars broadcasting such interviews with political opposition members. Malaysia’s constitution gives citizens the right to freedom of speech and expression, but imposes limits. Violations can be punished by several years in prison. Malaysia’s current prime minister, British-educated Najib Razak, has initiated reforms to loosen up rules on the news media and the tightly controlled political system as he pitches himself as a moderate keen for a more open society. Last year, he got rid of laws that required annual licensing of print publications. “Definitely what he has done so far has not yet transformed media and how Malaysians want news,” said Ms. Masjaliza, the media advocate. Ms. Brown earlier launched a radio program called Radio Free Sarawak, a Malaysian state on the island of Borneo. She was born in Sarawak, and the program focuses on environmental challenges faced by indigenous people there due to rapid deforestation. Radio is popular in Malaysia. Malaysians topped the radio listener list in the Asian-Pacific region, tuning in for an average of 21 hours and 34 minutes a week in 2011, according to a survey by market researcher Nielson. “My target audience is the rural people, who need an alternative medium to know what’s happening,” Ms. Brown said. Radio Free Malaysia can be accessed via http://radiofreemalaysia.org and broadcast daily on 1359kHz AM/MW from 9.00pm to 11.00pm. |

| KENYATAAN MEDIA: Parti Keadilan menolak tawaran masa media tidak ikhlas Umno Posted: 25 Mar 2013 11:44 PM PDT Parti Keadilan ingin menyatakan di sini pendirian menolak tawaran masa media sepuluh minit yang diberikan kepada kami oleh RTM. Tawaran ini adalah satu sandiwara hodoh pihak yang jahilkan peranan media dalam demokrasi. Peranan media dalam sistem demokrasi ialah untuk memberi liputan dan laporan berita yang objektif, adil dan saksama. Adalah tidak wajar media diperalatkan sebagai mesin propaganda untuk memaksakan pandangan UMNO ke atas rakyat. Tawaran masa media 10 minit ini adalah suatu penghinaan terhadap kepintaran rakyat.

| Posted: 25 Mar 2013 11:43 PM PDT With the 13th General Election almost upon us, PKR would like to forewarn the rakyat that this will be the dirtiest election in the country’s history. There are high levels of fear within Barisan Nasional’s (BN) leadership, despite the false confidence it portrays to the media. More than the manipulation and control of information via mainstream media, government machinery is being abused to ensure a BN victory. Taxpayers’ money is being routed to cloud the rakyat from the reality that the country’s competitiveness has slipped and economic achievements imbalanced. Umno leaders know their time is up. Despite their unrelenting arrogance, we are informed that their own intelligence reports tell them they are about to lose the election. Which is why the Prime Minister Dato’ Seri Najib Razak is continuously delaying Parliament dissolution. Umno is actually struck by indecision and a crisis of confidence. This is underlined by its extreme actions. The two prong tactic by Umno now is to scare the Malays and hiring mercenaries to use blogs to create and distribute doctored videos alleging sexual misconduct by PKR leaders. In the first prong they seed fear in the Malay community, telling that their future is doomed under Pakatan Rakyat. The truth remains that Umno is the real character gambling the Malay interest. In the second tactic of alleging sexual misconduct, we are reliably informed that besides the present doctored video attempting to besmirch Dato’ Seri Anwar Ibrahim’s reputation, other sexual videos supposedly with other PKR leaders in them will be distributed soon. These videos are the result of digital image manipulation involving the coupling of separate scenes to provide the impression that our leaders are participating in sexual misconduct. PKR would like to tell the Malaysian people that the instances of such insidious acts against us are expected and our leaders are capable of weathering them, for the righteous are often tested. NabiYusuf AS, Maryam AS dan Aishah RA faced too in their time such sexual allegations. We are certain the Malaysian people will stand by the truth and won’t be intimidated or fooled by Umno’s morally reprehensible deceptions. They will choose wisely and build a better future for the country by voting Pakatan Rakyat. Dato' Saifuddin Nasution |
| KENYATAAN MEDIA: Taktik kotor Umno kerana rakyat semakin memilih Pakatan Rakyat Posted: 25 Mar 2013 11:42 PM PDT Menjelang pilihanraya umum ke 13 ini, PKR ingin memaklumkan rakyat bahawa mereka hendaklah bersedia menghadapi pilihanraya umum yang paling kotor dalam sejarah negara. Di sebalik keyakinan yang cuba ditonjolkan pemimpin UMNO melalui media arus perdana, wujud kekhuatiran yang ketara di kalangan pemimpin tertinggi BN. Selain dari manipulasi dan pengawalan maklumat melalui media arus perdana, jentera kerajaan disalahgunakan untuk memenangkan BN. Duit cukai rakyat digunakan untuk melalikan rakyat dari hakikat bahawa daya saing negara semakin merosot dan pencapaian ekonomi negara tidak seimbang. Kepimpinan tertinggi UMNO tahu masa depan mereka telah pudar. Walau pun kepimpinan UMNO cuba memberi gambaran mereka yakin akan menang, kita sedia maklum berbagai maklumat perisikan yang mereka terima telah memberi penilaian bahawa BN akan tewas pada pilihanraya umum ke 13 yang menjelang tiba. Inilah sebabnya Perdana Menteri Dato' Seri Najib Razak terpaksa berterusan menangguh pembubaran Parlimen. UMNO sebenarnya sedang mengalami kegusaran dan krisis keyakinan. Dalam kegusaran ini, UMNO mula mengambil tindakan-tindakan yang terdesak. Dua teras utama taktik yang diambil UMNO hari ini ialah menakut-nakutkan orang Melayu dan menggunakan askar-askar upahan di ruang-ruang blog untuk mereka-reka dan menyebarkan video-video palsu yang kononnya memaparkan salahlaku seks pemimpin-pemimpin PKR. Taktik pertama melibatkan menakut-nakutkan masyarakat Melayu bahawa masa depan mereka akan tergadai jika Pakatan Rakyat memerintah, walau pun UMNO lah sebenarnya yang menggadaikan kepentingan orang Melayu selama ini. Taktik kedua ialah menggunakan dakwaan salahlaku seks. Selain dari video palsu yang cuba mencemarkan nama baik Dato Seri Anwar Ibrahim, kita mendapat maklumat dari sumber-sumber yang boleh dipercayai bahawa beberapa video palsu seks beberapa orang pemimpin lain PKR akan diterbitkan. Video-video ini merupakan manipulasi imej digital yang melibatkan pencantuman babak-babak yang tidak berkaitan untuk memberi gambaran pemimpin-pemimpin berkenaan terbabit dalam salahlaku seks. PKR ingin mengingatkan rakyat Malaysia bahawa sudah menjadi lumrah perjuangan bahawa mereka yang berada di barisan kebenaran akan diuji dengan sengit. Nabi Yusuf AS, Maryam AS dan Aishah RA semuanya diuji dengan dakwaan seksual. Jika insan-insan mulia ini diuji sebegini rupa, sudah tentulah insan biasa seperti kami tidak akan terlepas dari dugaan dan fitnah. Fitnah dan tuduhan-tuduhan seksual palsu yang bertubi-tubi ini hanya meyakinkan kami akan ketulusan perjuangan kami. Ia hanya mengukuhkan keazaman kami untuk terus mara ke hadapan. Dan kami yakin video-video palsu ini akan dilihat rakyat sebagai taktik politik UMNO yang terdesak, jijik dan keterlaluan. Kami yakin rakyat Malaysia akan berdiri teguh dengan kebenaran dan tidak akan mudah diugut atau diperdayakan oleh tipu helah serta muslihat kotor UMNO. Mereka akan membuat pilihan yang bijak dan membina masa depan negara yang lebih cerah dengan memilih Pakatan Rakyat. Dato' Saifuddin Nasution |
