LOL!!! Very true.

Now I don't even buy it unless there's something important, or I need to check what movies have been freelisted.

I use it when I want to wrap up something, present maybe just to make it thicker... Or to clean some glass or my car's windshield... hard to find nowadays because we don't buy it at all already. It's quite cheap considering RM1.20 for so many pieces of paper, especially Saturday's and ESPECIALLY KL Saturday's version... thick until dunno what..

Didn't they raise the cost of the weekend issues?

Anyway, I shot off an e-mail to The Star today :

Quote:
Hello xxxxxx,

Thanks for posting my letter. However, I'm sorry to see that you chose to sanitise it and remove most of the salient points.

I agree that they are probably controversial. But if we do not speak out about them, how will we ever progress?

I had the guts to send the letter in my real name, in the interest of public health and our beleaguered doctors. At the very least, I think The Star can print the full letter.

That's very civic minded of you. My dad does the same too (since i'm too lazy to walk the dog).

I've written to the editorial once, but it was to [s]flame[/s] comment on someone who ranted about the difficulties in getting a scholarship for a degree for his child. the person who wrote in is a teacher for government run school. other then a few grammatical fix, the content was not changed.

but it was sooooooooooooooo long ago.

Well, you probably did not talk about anything taboo like the SLAB programme I mentioned above, or even the way our government is covertly forcing doctors to remain in Malaysia.

I'm sure the people would not take too kindly to such programmes. But with government newspapers like The Star censoring everything sensitive or controversial (to the government), how will people ever know what's REALLY going on?

Hence, I hope everyone who reads my post will forward it to their friends and relatives. I'm really tired of our government pussyfooting around the real issues and lying to the people to further their own agendas.
