Negative blogging creates misunderstanding by spreading rumors.

Rumors are often spread widely on the internet,especially through blogging. In negative blogging, "spices" are often added into the blog to make it "tastier". Rumors about how bad is our government, how races are discriminated around the country, and many more. These rumors contain unproven statements and propaganda that will put unity in havoc. For example, a road accident that occur on the road. For us, it's just an accident. But, if it's taken as an issue by negative bloggers, the fact will be twisted and it might become a racial issue, saying that the accident occur because the driver of certain race is bullying the other race. This, is what we meant by unproven statement. For most people that doesn't know the actual incident, they'll fall for the lies posted in the negative blog. This might lead to further misunderstanding among races.

On the other hand, disputants will use the cyber spread to create propaganda among citizens. These disputants are really good in writting calumny, and believe me, you wont even know it's a distorted fact.This will not only destroy unity among us, but it will scare away foreign investors too!So tell me why negative blogging should not be banned?

Unity in our nation is still on its stage of recovering after the May 13 incident. Let me describe unity in our country as dry straws. And a little bit of spark, could ignite and burn it to ground. And the spark I mentioned include negative blogging. We're facing many obstacles in achieving mutual understanding and integration among races. Some might say that negative blogging would put forth "Rakyat" opinion to the government. I dare to say, these people are selfish. These opinions are just personal dissatisfaction of the bloggers towards an issue,and everything written will sound like how the government has mistreat the "Rakyat". A personal opinion that is not constructive, should always be kept personal.
