Further digging also revealed that Malaysia’s ranked 33 in the world w.r.t. the number of webhosting companies in the country (142 companies). However, there are still alot of resellers and small-timers out there like mamakk’s host who are not counted in the statistics I guess.

Malaysia’s former premier Mahathir Mohamad Wednesday emerged as an unlikely champion for the country’s bloggers, arguing they provide a valuable source of news. Mahathir, who in recent months has complained he was being censored by mainstream media, said people were turning to blogs and online news journals because of Malaysia’s tightly controlled media.
“There is no doubt that bloggers have provided us with an alternative source of news. By and large, they have been responsible,” Mahathir said after speaking at a conference on the media and national development. “At the moment, with the atmosphere prevailing in the country, many people are turning to the bloggers for news,” he said.
“That is what the government should learn, if you suppress news then the alternative source will gain credence,” said the former leader, whose daughter Marina has her own blog.

Malaysia may introduce tough Internet laws to control bloggers and prevent them from spreading “disharmony, chaos, seditious material and lies” on their websites, a report has said.
Deputy Science and Technology Minister Kong Cho Ha said moves such as registering bloggers would be difficult, but accused some writers of posting controversial articles to attract readers.
“We are talking about creating cyber laws to control those who misuse the Internet,” Kong was quoted as saying in the Star newspaper.
“We need to have stricter cyber laws to prevent these bloggers from disseminating disharmony, chaos, seditious material and lies,” he said.
What??? Maybe the govt should mull sedition laws against politicians first before trying to silence the masses…

Well, we published this a few days earlier, but here’s something new about Malaysia.
via theStar:
KUALA LUMPUR: If you are a Malaysian and you have your own blog, the odds are that you’re a woman, aged 25 or under.
64% of local bloggers are female and 74% of them are in that age group. It found that 41% of Malaysians who went online also blogged.
The survey found that 56% of Malaysians blogged to express passionately held views, while 49% blogged to keep friends and family updated. Some 34% just like having a little corner of cyberspace to call their own.
Only a small number, about 3%, said they were practising “citizen journalism.” As for blog-reading habits, 63% of respondents said they read blogs for entertainment, while technology, travel and music were the three most widely read blog topics across Asia and in Malaysia .
The majority of blog readers, 81%, are most interested in blogs written by friends or family. Far behind in popularity are blogs by celebrities, pop stars and workmates.Blogs by business leaders and politicians garner the least interest.
Blog readers said they looked for good writing and plenty of pictures.
Girl Power!!!
