So, don’t expect anything from our mainstream media. Don’t bother to tune in to TV3 because they probably won’t reveal the results till tomorrow morning if PKR wins.
Go to Anil Netto’s blog for his updates.
And this Hisham Rais‘ blog for almost instant updates. Info from here are not very reliable but they are based on what he heard. So, do not treat everything you read as the truth until you reconfirm elsewhere.
Since this is still the Hungry Ghost month, hantus are every where in buses. I read from Malaysiakini that Gobala, the MP was detained by police because he tried to stop these suspicious looking buses.
Well, keep praying. When the result is announced, some will be very happy and some will be out to create chaos. I still remember the night when DAP won the Penang state. Everyone was reminded to remain low profile with no celebration. I hope the winning party supporters will do the same over there in Permatang Pauh.

Dan get angry, Dan gets pissed when reports of hantus but no one ever takes video and put online. Dan says, these days everyone and their granny got cameraphone with 2.0+ megapixel cam with video function what! Dan says, this is the era of BLOGS, YOUTUBE and online proof what. No wonder print media still gets to pull wool over people’s eyes. Because people should remember to freaking take videos with their camera phones. It’s not for videos of sex with your own girl girl or boy boy only.

Does anyone knows wht happened to MalaysiaToday’s website? It posted evidence of Najis’s abuse of power regarding Sari Gading’s contract with Post Office Malaysia earlier today and later in the afternoon the site has been down.
This is the cached linked with the evidence mysteriously removed from imageshack.

please try mirror to MT, such as mt.harapanmalaysia.com.
TM has blocked malaysia-today.net.
We pray Govt won’t throw DSAI to jail using ISA now.

Agreed patawi , TM has blocked malaysia-today.net. I tried to ping it from servers outside Malaysia and the pings just timed out meaning the server was overloaded. When I try to access the site , it says unable to resolve host. It is obvious TM has set their DNS servers to not resolve malaysia-today.net’s address.
Here is a workaround. Use a proxy server that is outside of Malaysia with port 80 because it is unlikely that TM can block access to that port. You can get your list of proxies from here

Here is how you use proxy server with IE

It’s pretty much the same with other browsers. You’ll just have to test each proxy and see which works. I just accessed malaysia-today’s site with a Mexican proxy.
