MDLF and the MalaysiaKini Story

By: Ross Settles | 09/22/2010

The last few weeks have been a bit slow in Malaysia as the country celebrates the end of Ramadan and the festive season of Hari Raya. During the slow time, I have written a few things for other blogs on the work and situation at MalaysiaKini, as they get posted I will cross post them. Please feel free to send any thoughts or comments back to me through the Knight Fellow Blog.

The first item is short piece on the Fellowship and the development of strategy for the Media Loan Development Fund internal site and newsletter.  You can find the post here.


Note: Media Loan Development Fund is a co-sponsor of my fellowship at MalaysiaKini.
