While Pahang offered pensioners jobs as bloggers, Perak is creating a bloggers “secretariat” to “help online writers spread information on state policies to the masses”. The secretariat will be chaired by MB’s press secretary and will help disseminate information to the bloggers.

Well, it will certainly make it easy for blogger and anyone else if statistics, press release, contact information etc are provided online. But the question of blogger alliance, validity of the data/info, etc. will arise. Bloggers have to work harder to verify the reports released by the secretariat.

Why not just make use of the state government website to upload information. Let everyone access, not only for bloggers. At the moment, I’m having accessing Perak government website most of the time. Perhaps the state government can look into that as well.
