National Jokes.. e-govt?
Seriously.. most of our .gov websites are jokes. Most look like primary school children projects.
RTB just launched their RTB City website.. I went in to have a look and saw this (Click About US, Spell Organisation).
I can't believe they had a launching ceremony for this crap and i cannot believe that "Pg Dato Ismail was proud to mention that RTB’s website is ranked top 10 among other government website worldwide.." Maybe the reason why its top 10 is so it allows people to come have a good laugh at us. The links travel from english to malay and english again.. the international programme is in malay.. the site themes are all inconsistent.. blah blah blah. Come on.. if you cant do it yourself pay someone like Kurapak.com to do it. This is a NATIONAL EMBARASSMENT!
At the time of posting this, our ISPs are also damn hilarious. I couldnt even upload a 60kb file for a screen shot.
Here is the :
1) BBC for comparison. and here is
2) Bangladesh's National TV site. At least they can keep the theme consistent!
3) Here is China's CCTV.
4) Here is the US .gov portal
5) Here is SIngapore's .gov
6) Here is Malaysia's .gov
7) Here is UK's .gov
8) Here is South Africa
9) Here is Brazil's
10) Here is Taiwan
11) Here is Japan
Where does our .gov sites fit in any of those???? And these are just all random..

Well, looks like they finally amended their mistakes... but i still think the site looks like CRAP!
I wonder how much money they spend on it? Not even a cents worth!
It truly is a JOKE!
Did anyone know any Bruneian who really spend one hour or even half hour viewing RTB channel in Brunei? What the big deal of their so-called Top 10 ranking site, when most of us can't even receive clear reception of RTB channel, unless you are an Astro subscribers and what is the point of watching RTB when you have Astro, right? This is really a joke, what the point of having a so-called top ranking site when your basic 'products' can't even reach our home television sets?
They should have done proof reading before launching. Imagine launching and having guest of honour spot the mistakes. Maluu you know. Plus, get quality photos! Hire someone to take them. *wink*
Instead of making negative comments about RTB, I think on a whole, we should think positive about the current developments within our country, after all it is our country to begin with. Although I agree that criticism (good or bad) is important to create intellectual growth within our country, we have to look at it positively as with any major endeavor, there will be problems along the way regardless. Even though there has been some issues about constraints with staff/rescources/expertise, nevertheless, at least the people at RTB are trying their best to create change. I for one don't see anyone else doing it? Like the saying goes - "Everyone's a crtitic!"
Stop making up excuses.
Yeah.. If you can't do a job right.. don't try.. at least it wont be embarrasing. If you ARE going to do something, do it right.
"If you can't do a job right.. don't try.."
-- What's wrong with them trying?
"If you ARE going to do something, do it right."
-- If you are gonna do something doesn't always have to be Right. people or they I must say will learn from their mistakes.
just because simple mistake " SPELLING!" you guys make it a big deal....delete n make correction...thats it! check your photo's dude! n u have to learn alots of things....hahahhaa
