Umno Information Officers
It mustn't be because Dr Mahathir saw my presence in Putrajaya yesterday and said things to humour me.
“There are new Umno boys now. They are very loyal, they work very hard to spin.
The new Umno information chief Brendan Pereira and Gunasegaram, these are the Umno boys now, they are very loyal and they work very hard.
Mahathir came to this context when he was asked about his being allegedly sidelined in Umno. He pointed us to the party which "now has many spin doctors".
You should know who Mahathir was referring to. One works as The NST group editor, the other Nexnews Media Group -- theSun & The Edge executive editor.
Malaysiakini heard the same thing and published it.

One man’s spin is another man’s poison for sure if you are on the receiving end.
And what was his concrete suggestion to Khairy to “alleviate the problems faced by the Malays in Penang.”…? .. “They can grab (Penang Chief Minister Dr Koh) Tsu Koon by the scruff of his neck and throw him into the sea because they are so powerful.” More details and the woes of Lim K S in

A bit off-topic,
But it's getting a bit lame with mwt always coming into blog posts here with side-tracked comments which leads to an URL to his blog.
Cmon, if your blog's of good solid content, and half a sense of not highlighting it in colors like a pre-teen girl in love with boy-bands, then you dont have to worry about people not visiting your blog and having to resort to such advertising technique.
Getting really sick about that already... haven't you?

Auyongtc,
Suanie has observed this before you. As Jeff has generously said “Hitchhike my blog to promote yours, for all I care”. He is getting 14K avg per day and readers may need to have some other spined views.
JEFF OOI says: I am here to promote blogging. If there are readers who get irritated with the excessive advertising, it also won't get unnoticed. Don't don't take this public space as a carte blanche.
Maybe for you, it will not open up your myopic view from Japan and haven’t you got a choice? To out click back to the main or to a dead end or back to a more colorful geisha site from the land of the rising sun.
JEFF OOI says: This paragraph of tirade -- geisha and rising sun and all -- doesn't seem to have any relevance to my blog topic and context. Don't abuse the hospitality here.
