Having read Ong Chew Thor's letter, Unhappy to pay for Malaysiakini's news , I would like to share my view on the subject of subscription with your readers.

Living abroad for the last 20 years, I find it extremely difficult to have access to any timely and/or neutral news about Malaysia until I came across malaysiakini two years ago. And I have been reading it since 7 and a postage for recorded delivery of 3.21 (total: US$43 for a year). And it is great value for money.
