It is compulsory for all officers to master the use of Facebook and Twitter
KUALA LUMUR: The 1,200 special affairs officers of the Information, Communications and Culture Ministry have been told to master the use of Facebook and Twitter.


"It is compulsory for all officers to master the use of Facebook and Twitter to reach out to the rakyat more effectively," said its Minister Datuk Seri Dr Rais Yatim.

Rais noted this was crucial as there are 18 million computer users in Malaysia of whom 10 million are on Facebook.

"Unlike in previous years, the rakyat nowadays are more inclined to refer to such mediums for information apart from just reading the newspapers," he added.
