As explained to Peter, I had the silly notion that we were suppose to do not one but both the individual assignments. Thus, after much clarification and limited time left, I had embarked on this duo journey of doing my essay in the blog. The essay question I chose was the first, focusing on the Internet censorship policy in Malaysia and exploring the interesting relationship with its political ideology, mainly Vision 2020.
The blog posts explains the development of my project as well as my thinking process. While the nation's no censorship policy contributes to their political ideology, several legislative laws such as Sedition Act and Internal Security Act does not coincide with the lenient Internet policy. I have also listed an important case study of Raja Petra Kamaruddin who was charged under the Sedition Act and was thrown into detention without trials under the Internal Security Act for further references and support.
What I've realised and learnt from this experience is that, the internet can be seen like a big tree and the links are seen as roots. I can go to another page or another realm with the click of a button. Unlike any of my other assignment, this is my first online blog assignment, and while I found it rather enlightening, it proved to be rather challenging as well. I thought my blog was pretty messy and as much as I tried to state my poins in a blog post. There are still quite confusing for the reader.
I have also listed several links, videos, photos and enlisted a google map on to the blog to demonstrate my DCT skills, which of course, as seen is pretty much amateurish :)
