MALAYSIAN PM THANKS BLOG VISITORS

KUALA LUMPUR, May 27 (Bernama) -- Prime MinisteR Najib Tun Razak
Tuesday extended his thanks to all subscribers and visitors of his
www.1Malaysia.com.my website and for their support of the 1Malaysia concept.

"I have been continuously promoting the concept of 1Malaysia, both as a way
of life for all Malaysians as well as a philosophy of the new administration.

"I am pleased to read your responses to the 8 Values which I had put up last
month and encourage you to continue visiting www.1Malaysia.com.my to share your
thoughts and views towards shaping a greater nation," he said in his 1Malaysia
update on the website Tuesday.

Najib launched his personal website www.1Malaysia.com.my on Sept 16 last
year when he was the Deputy Prime Minister at that time.

The website is intended to be a forum for all Malaysians to exchange views
on the important issues that face them as well as to promote common goals and
highlight the nation's unique diversity.


Najib also expressed his concern that certain quarters were seeking to drive
wedges between Malaysia's communities for political and personal gain and that
the www.1Malaysia.com.my was intended as a portal through which members of the
public could directly engage in open and honest dialogue directly with him.

The website is for all Malaysians and he encouraged those who rely on the
Internet for information, communication, and community to join this discussion.

After being sworn in as Prime Minister on April 3 this year, Najib continued
updating his blog from time to time.

Viewers can read the text of his maiden address as the new prime minister on
his blog. It was posted even as he was delivering it live over television.
