Edit: There is a document that is collated by IT professionals as we speak right now in preparation for tomorrow’s public hearing of the proposed act. Do join in the conversation!

Bro, should change your link from “http://roguejs.com/2011-12-12/now-i-know-why-mosti-wants-cpb-2011/mosti.gov.my” to “mosti.gov.my” so the user can have full effect.
