<!-- START OF : div id="storytext"-->WHAT really sparked it all off for Mr Andrew Loh was a half-hour television news bulletin in May 2006, focusing on the General Election. He timed the coverage given to contesting parties: 28 minutes for the People's Action Party (PAP), and two for the opposition.
The tally dissatisfied him. Insufficient air time was being given to opposing views, the then 40-year-old felt. So he decided to start a blog.
He could afford the time: he was helping his brother run a restaurant then, and had no other job. Read Jeremy Au Yong's full story in Friday's edition of The Straits Times.
