ini katanya Menteri Pelancongan aka menteri Pariwisata Malaysia loh, tau deh data akuratnya darimana. Doi marah-marah setelah seorang blogger, yang juga seorang pekerja humas sebuah perusahaan Humas terkenal dan presenter SCTV, Nila Tanzil menuliskan ketidakpuasan atas hasil perjalanannya dalam meliput Malaysia tourism objects to her corporate blog ( dimana perjalanan itu adalah hasil invitation dari MTB). Menurutnya, hal ini disebabkan terlalu banyaknya birokrasi, tidak boleh kesana-kesini, begini-begitu dll dsb.
Pertanyaannya: se-relevan apa pernyataan seorang menteri pelancongan Malaysia ini (btw, istri si tengku Adnan ini ternyata aktris jadul Indonesia loh, Enny Beatrice, does the name ring the bell to you?) yang tanpa didukung oleh hasil research or survey dari lembaga yang terpercaya? Ayo bagi yang merasa liars and unemployed, please raise your hand :)
Comments: ga di Malaysia, ga di Indonesia, para pejabat (and also the people perhaps? Gue pernah baca di sebuah buku bahwa government also reflects the people of a nation) sama2 aja mental melayunya hehehe...begitu merasa diserang, langsung deh mengeluarkan statement-statement yang irresponsible, padahal menteri gitu lohhh :( |

Tengku Adnan: Bloggers are Liars
80% are Unemployed Women
updated:2007-03-08 20:11:32: MYT
(Kuala Lumpur) The Tourism Minsiter Tunku Adnan lashed out today (Mar 8, 2007) that all bloggers on the Internet are liars, out of which 80% are unemployed women.
“All bloggers are liars, they cheat people using all kinds of methods. From my understanding, out of 10,000 unemployed bloggers, 8,000 are women.”
Tengku was addressing the media at the 2007 Malaysia GP Sales when he was asked about allegations made on a blog by a female TV presenter. The guests present were shocked at first, but burst into laughter.
He said he may lose some female voters but did not retract his statement or indicate that he was just joking.
He said that bloggers spread rumours, disrupt social harmony and many bloggers are slanderous and are cheating people with their blogs.
“All bloggers are not in favour of national unity. Our country has been successful because we are very tolerant with each other, if not, there will be civil war, the Malays will kill the Chinese, the Chinese will take revenge and kill the Malays, and the Indian will kill everyone.”
He urged the rakyat not to simply trust bloggers, and gamble our future away because the achievement we gain in the 50 years of independence is not an easy task.
“We have to show the world our positive attitude, if the world learn to be as tolerant as us, the world will be peaceful, without war or civil war.”
He said that the tourism ministry has been promoting the country for the rakyat’s benefit, not just to benefit his own ministry.
He stressed that the Malaysian tourism industry is now in a critical moment as the competition from the neighbouring countries such as Vietnam, Cambodia and the Philippines will be stiffer and Malaysia must respond proactively.
