It is the time of the year when Malaysiakini invites their subscribers to vote for their Top News and Newsmaker of 2013.
Looking at the list, it is amazing how some news were easily forgotten while others still fresh in my mind. I'm sure your list or my list may not necessarily be the same as Malaysiakini's.
Since we are reminded that the newsmaker may not be the most popular, I can expect the popular votes will go to the most unpopular personality! Similarly, the top news is likely to be that which most riled up the public...
