BLOGGER AWAS! ANDA SEDANG DIPERHATI (DWIBAHASA)

Mursyidul Am PAS menyifatkan penulis blog yang cuba melaga-lagakan pihak tertentu khususnya dalam politik PAS Kelantan sebagai 'blogger celaka'.

Nik Aziz Kecam Penulis Blog Lebih Banyak Mengumpat

KOTA BAHARU, 15 Jan (Bernama) -- Menteri Besar Kelantan, Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat sekali lagi mengulangi kritikannya terhadap penulis blog yang lebih dianggap sebagai mengumpat daripada memberi ilmu kepada pembaca.

Katanya tulisan blog banyak bersifat mengumpat orang lain dengan pelbagai isu dan meminta rakyat menapis maklumat yang tidak mendatangkan ilmu yang disalurkan oleh penulis dalam blog masing-masing.

"Blogger yang macam ini bukan boleh nak tambah ilmu, kerana banyak dok mengumpat orang. Kalau blogger boleh tambah ilmu tak apa," katanya ketika menyampaikan kuliahnya di Dataran Ilmu, di sini, pada Jumaat.

Baru-baru ini, Nik Aziz, Mursyidul Am PAS itu, menyifatkan penulis blog yang cuba melaga-lagakan pihak tertentu khususnya dalam politik PAS Kelantan sebagai 'blogger celaka'.

Dalam perkembangan lain, beliau mencadangkan pembuat kuih tradisonal di negeri itu mengambil langkah proaktif menukar nama-nama kuih tradisional yang tidak manis didengar, seperti kuih 'tahi itik'.

Katanya nama baru yang lebih sedap didengar boleh menarik orang ramai membelinya sesuai dengan keenakan kuih berkenaan.

Menurutnya, kalau nama kuih tradisional lain, seperti 'puteri mandi', 'jala emas' boleh dinamakan maka tidak ada sebab kuih 'tahi itik' juga ditukar kepada nama yang lebih sesuai.

Nik Aziz hits out at bloggers who vilify rather than educate

KOTA BARU (Jan 15, 2010): Kelantan Menteri Besar Datuk Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat once again hit out at bloggers who are preoccupied with maligning and gossiping about others rather than disseminating useful knowledge to Net surfers.

"It's unfortunate that the blogs are not used to search for and increase one's knowledge but more for vilifying others over various issues.

"This type of bloggers are a bane. It's alright if they use their blogs to gain useful information to increase and share their knowledge," he said in his lecture at Dataran Ilmu, here, today.

Nik Aziz hence wants the people to be more discerning in accepting information from the blogsites.

At a recent news conference, he had described those bloggers who tried to cause friction among groups, especially in PAS internal politics, as damnable bloggers.

Nik Aziz was angry over a rumour circulating in the blogosphere that senior state executive councillor Datuk Husam Musa intended to quit his post due to the PAS political crisis in Kelantan.

The PAS spiritual leader said "humankind's blissful existence is not because of money, but because of Allah's blessings by practising a way of life approved by Him".

On another matter, Nik Aziz proposed that traditional 'kuih' (cake) makers in the state take proactive steps to change some of the kuih names like 'tahi itik' (duck faeces) to more palatable names to attract buyers.

"If there are beautiful kuih names like 'puteri mandi' (bathing princess) and 'jala emas' (golden net), there's no reason why the delicious 'tahi itik' cannot be changed to a better name," he said.

Explainer: Both jala emas and tahi itik are made with duck eggs, the former with the yolk which lends it the golden hue, and the latter with the leftover egg white. In this case, the tahi refers to "leftover" (the egg white), and not faeces.
