ONE loud thunder clap was heard over Putrajaya at about 2.00PM today; and DEputy PRIme MInister "Malay FIRst, MALAysian SECond" ultra was replaced by another ultra, the "YOU tak suka pilihanraya negara ini, PINDAH LAH! (KE CHIna atau INDIA wei!)" Internal AFFArs MINister ZAHId HAmidi. A jest reward for bodeking the CEO the past two years!
WEll, an UMNO_Rotten-to-the-core basket of apples is just playing with limited IQ-MUSICAL CHAirs, so MALAysians don't get excited the country's situation will get any better. USINg a cliche cun? --it's jumping out of a frying pan into the fire!
WORSE yet, NUR JAZlan MOHAmed, CHAIr of PARliamentary PUBLIC ACCOUNTS COMMITTEE, and outspoken MCA YOUTH chief surnamed CHONG... have been COOPTED(Woodenised?) INTO THE CABInet as full and deputy minister respectively, so we can all look forward to the PAC'S work inquiring into the 1MDB Affair being DELAYED, intentionally IMHO BECAUSE JAZLAN was doing quite a good job todate. I GUEss a more "Obedient" SERvant will replace the PAC CHAIR maybe with an ice-pack installed!
OKAY, here's from THE STAr ONLine:

Media groups to rally over Edge suspension
114 9 1 22
Media groups will be organising a rally to protest Putrajaya's suspension of two newspapers under The Edge Media Group for exposing alleged misappropriation of funds in finance ministry-owned 1MDB.
The announcement was made in a joint statement by Gerakan Media Marah (Geramm), Institute of Journalists (IoJ), Reporters Sans Frontieres (RSF), Centre for Independent Journalism (CIJ), and Foreign Correspondents Club of Malaysia.
"In light of the recent developments, as groups representing the journalistic profession, we the undersigned have collectively gathered as a coalition to condemn the Home Ministry’s decision to suspend The Edge Weekly and The Edge Financial Daily's publishing permits for three months effective July 27," it said.
The coalition said the rally will take place on Aug 8 and will be backed by the public and civil society in Kuala Lumpur, but the exact location has yet to be finalised.
It added that a solidarity rally will also be held outside The Edge headquarters in Petaling Jaya on July 31 at 3pm.
"To the media, this is an issue that should affect us all. We are all #AtTheEdge.
"What has happened to The Edge is not something new and will not be the last, unless all of us collectively speak up against such acts," it said.
Freedom of information
The Edge had alleged that US$1.83 billion of 1MDB's funds was siphoned away in its joint venture with PetroSaudi International.
This is based on information - including email correspondents belonging to PetroSaudi - that was allegedly stolen by its former director Xavier Andre Justo.
The Edge owner Tong Kooi Ong had admitted to misleading Justo in order to obtain the information without paying him as demanded, citing public interest.
The media coalition said while it acknowledged the ethical debates behind how the information was obtained, it also highlighted the need for media to be given fair access to information, such as in the 1MDB case.
"It is time to move from a regime of Official Secrets to one of Freedom of Information, whereby information should by default be a public right.
"We demand a stop to political intervention in media affairs and that media access to information that is of interest to public is not hindered either by law or process," it said.

MyTeksi released the
'Press Freedom, A Pillar for Democracy' statement to show support to local
media. — Graphics by MyTeksiKUALA LUMPUR, July 28 — Following the
three-month suspension of The Edge Weekly and The Edge Financial Daily, MyTeksi released a statement of
support for the Malaysian media, utilising the hashtag #speakup.
Accompanied by graphics headlined “Press Freedom, A Pillar for Democracy,” the Petaling Jaya-based taxi app company recounted on its Facebook page how it received the support of the media when it first started and the importance of press freedom.
“To our friends in the mainstream and alternative media, you have our support. We recognise the role you play in shaping our country.
“Let’s all put our differences aside and take a stand for Freedom of the Press, one of the key cornerstones of democracy. #speakup,” it read.
In three hours, the post received 330 likes with commenters offering their own personal support for the message.
This follows the Home Ministry’s suspension of the two publications starting last Monday.
In a letter to the publisher, the ministry cited their reporting on 1MDB as “prejudicial or likely to be prejudicial to public order, security or likely to alarm public opinion or is likely to be prejudicial to public and national interest.
Before that, online access to London-based Sarawak Report was blocked by the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) two weeks ago.
