Bloggers beware according to titorolly and bat

Dear mouse,

No call from my friend. Memya siguro ang feeback kung ikukulong ang father o hindi.

So iba naman ang pinakialaman ni Pusa.

Blog ni Batjay tungkol sa blogger sa Singapore na isinara ang kaniyang webblog dahil sa bantang legal action dahil sa defamatory statement. Sinundan ito ni titorolly ng kaniyang blog na bloggers beware.

Hindi ko malaman kung alin ang nakakainsulto o nakakasirang puring sinabi niya kaya ito ako, hanap ng balita at ang statement ng Singaporean na nakakasirang puri.

Ito po ang balita na ngsasaad kung ano ang kaniyang kasalanan.

Ano nga kaya ang masasabi ng ating mga lawyers- bloggers?

A Singaporean graduate student has been forced to close his weblog under threat of a potentially ruinous defamation suit from the government A*Star agency for science, research and technology.

Chen Jiahao, who goes by the online name AcidFlask, closed down his weblog caustic.soda after A*Star threatened legal action. Chen had revealed the unfairness of the system of state loans for undergraduate studies – appropriately known as bonding - in comments to the media and on his blog. He had also commented on publicly accessible statistics that showed that Singapore's investment in research produced much paper, but little result in terms of peer review credit. The site has now closed and links to an apology to A*Star and its chairman Philip Yeo that reads in part: "The price of maintaining the content which used to be accessible at this URL has become too high for the author to afford."

At ito naman po ang kaniyang statement.

Anong masasabi ng Pusa? Dito sa atin, ang presidente tinatawag na pandak, pinaaalis sa Malacanan, nakatawa pa.

haay buhay, pag lukso, hipon.

isn't it there is a law in Spore that no can criticize the govt! i don't see any defamatory statement, unless what the blogger is saying is not true. the only thing that i have seen is that the statement is a criticism againts the Spore gov't. i showed this info to the law firm where I work during the day, the lawyers just laugh and said "very typical" and smiled at me and said.."i still love America".

oo ng ate cat. gusto kong marining sa ating mga kaibigang abogado kung ano ang kanilang say dito - sa blogging world, parang pushing the envelope tayo. medyo bata pa at wala yung limits, restrictions ng formal journalism (at least wala pa ngayon).

Hello Ca T! Sayang wala na link dun sa statement nung Singaporean. Based on this, totoo nga yung sinabi nung isang tao sa akin na nagtratrabaho sa ibang Asian country. Meron pang mas corrupt kesa sa atin, but the difference is they manage their corruption well. They take care of their own. Dito sa atin, talagang national news ang statements against the government, a-la showbiz pa ang approach!

titorolly,
maraming humahanga sa lider nila dahil daw napaganda ang S. totoo.
pero kung susubaybayan natin ang history, pagkamtay nila at pagwala na ang takot, lumalabas kung ano talaga ang nagawa nila.
remember MAO.

The authorities in Singapore are just too sensitive. They cannot take criticism.
