Yang Berbahagia Dato' Seri Shaziman bin Abu Mansor (Jawi: شاه عظيمان بن ابو منصور; born 20 January 1964) is a Malaysian politician, a prominent member of the United Malays National Organisation (UMNO), a component party of Barisan Nasional (BN) coalition.
Shaziman was chosen as a candidate for the 1999 general election, contesting for the Tampin parliamentary seat against Hamdan Hashim of Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party (PAS) and winning by a majority of 9,979 votes.
Since assuming the role of Deputy Minister of Energy, Water and Communications in 2004, Shaziman has expressed views against anonymous bloggers whom he accuses of "[spreading] negative or malicious content on the Internet" which "could harm the country's security".
[7] Shaziman's suggestion on 4 April drew flak from a member of the Opposition, as well as two prominent bloggers, Jeff Ooi and Ahiruddin Attan, both of whom have been sued by the New Straits Times Press in January 2007.
Democratic Action Party (DAP) leader Lim Kit Siang, who interjected when Shaziman was speaking in Parliament, claimed the government ministries' negative view of bloggers "reflected their lack of understanding about information flow" when foreign politicians already have their own blogs.
