 Unlike Mydin who called bloggers housewives etc., the new guy on the block is wise enough to start things on a fresh footing:

Q: The new media has exploded. Are you going to engage the bloggers at all?

A: Well, I wish I could see them. But I don’t know how many there are. Bloggers can be local and global. They can be everywhere and they emerge every day. They are important. In this explosion of information technology, everywhere is the centre of information. And people are free to express what they think. There is the good and bad about that. I wish we can sit down and talk to them and think openly what’s best for the country. That’s the bottom line.
