Bloggers in Parliament

by JermynToh on 2 May, 2008

Its quite interesting to read an “insider’s” perspective on Parliament sittings.

5 bloggers became Members of Parliament after the recent elections in Malaysia. Given their busy schedules and 1000 things fighting for their time … they have not blogged less as a result. In fact, they’ve been very fastidious about their posts.

There’s a blog-by-blog account of things happening and issues arising with comments flooding in from their readers.

It almost feels like the people can have their voices heard in parliament through these bloggers.

I’m also surprised how Facebook is being leveraged for this as well! You can share a politician’s blog entry in your profile!!!
