Blog, Facebook and PAS Youth Exco (Part III)

Shortly after performing my Friday Prayer, I came home for lunch.. I was deprived of home cook lunch for many weeks due to endless paper work and appointments. Whilst lunching at home, I turned on Bernama News and saw Mukhriz Mahathir being interviewed on the Internal Security Act or ISA protest. Its true what Mukhriz said, that we.. Malaysian had discounted and taken for granted the peace we enjoy under the shelter of the present system... including the ISA.

Maybe it is naive of me to disagree with the abolishment of the ISA but I observed whilst doing business in Thailand, Indonesia and travelled to Phillipines, Vietnam, Europe and other parts of the world, the racial harmony and peace in our country is far superior... hence, the system with ISA.

I had problem understanding PAS, DAP, PKR philosophy and resolutions but being civil minded, I took the effort to understand. I want to understand if the public voted for PAS or PKR (or other opposition) because of what they stood for or because of their personality?


I had as much problem searching for PAS exco line up as I had with understanding their resolutions. After hours of googling, facebooking and browsing the net, I found PAS Youth EXCO members list.

As a civilised citizen and a Kelantanese, I tried to understand the philosophy and resolution of PAS with failure.... but I never had any reason to even try to learn and understand their generals, machineries.. moreover their exco members... until now. Why? that is story for another blog posting....

CONCLUSION


There are various way to interpret the summary.


In total percentage, 49% of total PAS Youth Exco against 53% of total UMNO Youth exco are connected on cyber either through FB or Blog or both.


34% of total PAS Youth Exco against 21% of total UMNO youth exco is a BLOGGER.


PAS.. with all the masjid(s), surau(s), schools and kenduri(s) as their canvassing ground is also strongly represented on cyber with more percentage of their Youth exco in the blogosphere... and they still have time for protests and demonstrations. UMNO Youth although maintain a bigger quantum in the number of exco(s), they have less representation in the blogging community.


Of course these are only statistics... the activeness of the registered exco on their FB account and Blogging updates is still subjective.


Reading both UMNO and PAS exco's blogs and 'FB status updates' are fun. A lot can be learn (in term of personalities) from just these reading. One major difference between UMNO Youth @ Facebook and PAS Youth @ Facebook... PAS 'requested' to befriend (on FB) but majority of UMNO Youth only accept those people requested to be friends. Hence, PAS Youth are more aggresive seeking for 'friends' from the unbeknown.


Doing the cyber analysis on the main 'taiko(s)' in PAS and other opposition excos should be more interesting.


Stay tune....
