The Malaysian government is unfortunately planning to follow in the foot-steps of China in filtering the Internet to block certain websites that it considers 'undesirable'. This is a grave step back in this modern age when information knows no borders.
This development is certainly alarming to Malaysians who treasure their freedom of expression and value media freedom. The government's move is tantamount to criminalising freedom of expression and dissent. There are no two ways about it.
