Also they said:

“Kimber said almost 90 million Friendsters users are Asian. Friendster, has launched a new brand, targeting Asian youth.”

They just deleted everything, recovery is impossible it is a whole difference website. Malaysian based company bought over, could be one of UMNO cronies. They just do everything they like, fuck the users, fuck the public as long it is making money for themselves they don’t care.
