A Kadir Jasin
UPDATE - THE conspiracy theorists and the spooks may want to believe that our blog has been subjected to some sort of NSA-type manipulation resulting in some visitors not being able to gain access or finding difficulty in doing so.
Some contacted me on the cellphone to suggest that my posting entitled “Shout And Hopefully We Are Heard”(READ HERE)could be over the top for some people entrusted with defending and promoting the Prime Minister. They told me that there are ways and means of launching a cyber attack.
But I would not like to dabble in such a theory although pageviews of our blog fell from 6,326 on Feb 15 to 4,841 on Feb 18. Today it recovers to 5,532 so far. In the meantime, I asked people knowledgeable in ICT to look at our blog and they had since made some tweaking and corrected some technicalities.
Still I thank the many debaters for enlightening me and each other on the technicality of the Google’s blogger publishing, like TOOLBOX, who, among other things, states:
"Ini adalah penerangan pihak google setelah saya lakukan carian: Google Blogger Top Level Domain Name Changes and Censorship: The reason behind the change in the top level domain names is to accommodate Google with the facility to censor blogs based on country of access. Although you might think "censorship" sounds evil, this is actually a good compromise on Google's part. Because laws are local to each country so Google only needs to block/censor a blog in one country but still allow the rest of the world to see that content. So the restrictions are not world wide."
Our blog can now be accessed at kadirjasin.com Read comments for more pointers.
On a different matter, I bumped into a public university CV at noon today and he told me that he had been invited for Magrib prayer with the PM. He asked me if I have a message for the PM. So I gave him my usual two sens worth of unsolicited advice.

Don’t get me wrong. I am not demanding two sens from the government for my advice thought I read in the newspapers that the government paid McKinsey and Co of the US RM20.6 million to prepare the National Education Blueprint.
