Research notes: http://hazmanaziz.com/labs/new-media-focus-group-melayu-20/

“The New Media Focus Group – Melayu 2.0, is an initiative of participants of the first 2 dialogue sessions with Malay MPs, organised by Mendaki Volunteer Resources Dept, to touch base with Malays involved in New Media.

This is a ground-up initiative. YOU decide where this is heading. YOU set the agenda. YOU are part of the movement. YOU own the movement. YOUR voice matters. YOUR action counts.

This initiative has yet to formalise any solid objectives, and we need YOUR feedback on what should be the objectives of THIS generation to tackle various Malay issues covering a wide spectrum of concerns, like improving the educational progress of the Malays, improving the financial state of Malay families, curbing teenage pregnancies and divorces etc etc.

We have a couple of threads going on in the Facebook Group, and we need to gather YOUR feedback on them so that Melayu 2.0 has quantifiable objectives to meet, and so that we can truly achieve perpetual, sustainable progress of our community.

This initiative is driven, not by elite Malays. But by normal Malays that has achieved a lot, or will one day achieve something great. People like YOU.”
