#OpMalaysia (Updated) – Malaysia Hackers Response Towards Blocking of File Sharing Websites by SKMM; Anonymous Has Called Off [Their] Plan

Salam and hello everyone. I believe most of Malaysia netizens have noticed about the blocking of file sharing websites by SKMM (Suruhanjaya Komunikasi dan Multimedia Malaysia) lately and in the latest news today, most ISPs have already taken their action accordingly as requested by SKMM and KPDNKK to block all access to more than 10 of most popular file sharing websites. Read my previous entry for details.

As expected, this action is not acceptable by those file sharing websites users and a Facebook page to show their protest is now gaining more and more exposure from both netizens and medias. Most of the fans of the Facebook page shows their unacceptable reaction towards the action by SKMM. The issue becomes more hot when one of the most respected hackers groups, Anonymous has announced their plan to hack Malaysia government website as a sign of support for Malaysia netizen. Anonymous at first plans to hack Malaysia government website (www.malaysia.gov.my) at 7.30pm GMT on Wednesday (3.30am Thursday Malaysian time) and has named it “Operation Malaysia” . The video below shows the response of Anonymous towards SKMM action of blocking those file sharing websites and internet freedom.

Greetings, Malaysia, We have seen the censorship taken by the Malaysian government, blocking sites like The Pirate Bay, and WikiLeaks. Malaysia is one of the world’s strictest governments, even blocking out movies, and television shows. These acts of censorship are inexcusable. You are taking away a basic human right. The internet is here for freedom, without fear of government interference. Do not think that no one else notices. Your structured government has done the talking, and we hear loud and clear. Let this be an announcement to all your people. This is a sign, a warning, and an opportunity to listen to ideas above your own. In a way you are being stubborn. But how will this help anyone or your country. We fear that if you make further decisions to take away human freedom. We are obligated to act fast and have no mercy. For rules were meant to be broken. And corruption was meant to be washed away and forgiven. Now we will wash your corruption away so be prepared. Take this as a favor. We are Anonymous.

However, today through #OpMalaysia IRC Chat channel, it has been told that the operation is called off until further notice. Even Anonymous has called off their plan, a group of Malaysia hackers called RileksCrew/DragonForce Malaysia has started their response and action towards this blocking of file sharing websites. A few of Malaysia websites have been hacked in the last few hours. The following screenshots show the websites that have been hacked by RileksCrew/DragonForce Malaysia.

Evolusi KL Drift 2 (25 March 2010): Best Malaysian Made Action Movies of 2010?

Salam and hello everyone. First of all, sorry because I can’t reply all of your comments in this blog for now, I’m still working on my final exams which have another 3 papers to go. Anyway, this is just a quick-and-to-release-my-exam-stress entry and not an entry which will be discussed or written in details.

Okay, back to original title. Watch the Evolusi KL Drift 2 movie trailer below and write down what do you think about it.

So, are you going to watch it? Or, have you watched it? If you did, what is your feedback? Mind to share it here? Since I have watched it’s first movie and have written a quick movie review last time, I hope this second movie is better than the first one.

So, no more talk, what do you think?

2nd Putrajaya International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta 2010: 18-21 March 2010

Salam and hello everyone. If you still don’t have any plan for next week’s weekend, ya next week, not this week. I mean not today. Let me suggest you to one of the events you should consider to go next week’s weekend.  Here it is, as stated in the title, the 2nd Putrajaya International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta 2010 is back! Like last year, this year hot air balloon fiesta event will bring 19 hot air balloon participants from all over the globe such as France, New Zealand, Belgium, Netherlands and of course Malaysia too.

For details about the program’s itinerary, please proceed here for details. This event will run for 4 days, I’m not sure which day you should go. If you can come everyday from 18 to 21 March 2010, it would be really great, but anyway, if you ask me which day would be great to go, I will suggest you to go on Saturday (20 March 2010). If you look at itinerary, the schedule for each day is the same, maybe one or two might be different. However, on night of 20 March 2010, there is fireworks show which I think would be great for you if you want to photograph any pictures or you are fireworks’ fans.

Ok, since this event is called hot air balloon fiesta, of course some of you would like to take a ride on any of these hot air balloons, right? Speaking of that matter, you will have the opportunity to ride on it, but you must be ready to pay a few ringgit for the ticket and ready to wait in front of the ticket counter as early as 6.30am to get the ticket. That’s what you have to do if you want to take a ride during morning flight. For evening flight, I’m not sure. If you read my last year entry of this hot air balloon fiesta, you’ll know that the tickets were sold out as early as 7.00am and it were limited to 70 tickets per day only. If the organizer has increased the amount of the tickets for this year hot air balloon fiesta, it would be really great.

Anyway, you can have a look at 1st Putrajaya International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta 2009 photos that I have taken last time, hopefully it would attract you to come to this year hot air ballon fiesta. So, are you going?

Update: Firework Show at Karnival WOW! Putrajaya

Salam and hello everyone. This is just another quick update for Karnival WOW! Putrajaya that is going to start tomorrow at Tapak Pasar Tani, Presint 2, Putrajaya. According to myJazmanie, visitors will have firework show tomorrow at Putrajaya in conjunction with this carnival and if you want to shoot firework, this is the right time for you to practice your photography skills. Get ready with your gears, tripod, full charged battery etc. Hehe

I’m not sure where is the location for this firework show. It is unlikely it will be shot at PICC like MIFC last year because the location of the carnival is too far from PICC. I’ll update it later, maybe via my Twitter. So, follow me at Twitter for latest update. The firework show is expected to start after the concert, so it would be around 11pm onwards.

Some quote from myJazmanie regarding this update.

Assalamualaikum dan Salam Sejahtera YBhg. Tan Sri/Datuk/Tuan/Puan yang dihormati,
WOW!!! Sukacita dimaklumkan bahawa Putrajaya akan bermandi dengan limpahan bunga api sempena Karnival Wow! Putrajaya. Jangan lepaskan peluang untuk menyaksikan pertunjukan bunga api selepas Konsert Wow! Putrajaya pada 20 Februari 2010. Datanglah beramai-ramai dan pastikan anda mendapat tempat yang strategik dengan datang awal ke tapak Karnival.
Disamping itu, penyertaan bagi Mini Cycle Hunt dan Wayang Putrajaya masih dibuka kepada orang ramai. Hadiah menarik disediakan. Disertakan poster yang berkenaan untuk rujukan.
