Open tender for the printing of the state paper Suara Rakyat does not address the issue that the editorial policy of the paper currently does not justify the spending of precious and copiuos state fund on what every reader can see as a propaganda press. It is worse than the Rocket (DAP PArty organ) as the latter at least talk about issues to criticise the BN Federal government.

The profusion of the CM photos in the state run press put the BN partisan reporting to shame! It neither report the state government policies in better details than mainstream press run by BN parties or suppporters, not does it produce any newsbreaks-the news are just recycled old `news’! Just like a school megazine which try to capture some highlights of the good deeds of the state government. It is not worth it as propaganda given its crudity!
