“Malaysians, especially Muslims, must avoid being totally immersed in the internet culture, especially Facebook and Twitter, said Information Communication and Culture Minister Datuk Seri Dr Rais Yatim.
He added that facilities like internet could not be accepted wholly because it was a form of business introduced by the West and “Malaysians were just users.”
Yes, all this coming from the Info Comm minister of Malaysia in a local newspaper The Star. Read the full article here.
As can be expected, the Msian Twitter-ers are not happy and came up with a hashtag #yorais that talks about how old, ancient and backward thinking he is.
And the best part, it made it in the current top trending topics in Twitter. Here’s a screenshot for proof. LOL! Malaysia & Twitter boleh?
Some sample #yorais tweets :

Some people were asking what does my status mean. Let me give a brief explanation *puts on black thick rimmed glasses*
Binary is a numeric system which uses two numerals to represent all real numbers. While the most common counting system, the decimal system, uses ten numerals, binary uses only 0 and 1.
Each digit in a binary number system therefore represents a power of two. The first digit on the right represents the 0th power, the second represents the 1st power, the third represents the 2nd power, and so on. So the number 1 in the decimal system is represented also as 1 in the binary system. The number 23, by contrast, is represented as 10111 (16+0+4+2+1).
Basically binary is made up of only 0 & 1 and the digit is to the power of two and it adds up. So this year its kinda cool (in a very geeky kinda way) because they are a few dates that look like binary, namely 010110, 100110, 011010 and 101010.
Well today is 100110 which means:
Nothing too overly special or secret, just the geek in me grins because its such a geeky number :D In fact a friend of mine said, “I like binary because its either Yes (1) or No (0), no maybe’s or in between”.
Oh btw, 10 actually equals to “2” which explains my quote above

Four Catholic men and a Catholic woman were having coffee after mass.
The first Catholic man tells his friends, “My son is a priest. When he walks into a room, everyone calls him ‘Father’.
The second Catholic man chirps, “My son is a Bishop. When he walks into a room people call him ‘Your Grace’.”
The third Catholic man says, “My son is a Cardinal. When he enters a room everyone says ‘Your Eminence’.”
The fourth Catholic man says, “My son is the Pope. When he walks into a room people call him ‘Your Holiness’.”
Since the lone Catholic woman was sipping her coffee in silence, the four men gave her a look and said, “Well….?”
She proudly replies, “ have a daughter who is slim, tall, 38-Double D breasts, 24″ waist, and 34″ hips. When she walks into a room, people say,
‘Oh My God!.’
Hehehe! Gah sorry for my lack of proper posts. Been busy with work and getting back into the groove of working life. My bioclock is so out of whack I’m only sleeping at 4-5am every night (morning). Of course the fact that I’m playing Dragon Age: Origins really doesn’t help it :P
Oh btw, i just bought a new domain www.icednyior.com where I keep a list of my blogs and social networks. Do check it out :D
