democracy. a friend's opinion regarding freedom of speech gnerally made me think a bit. are we truly as democratic as we like to think we are..? if that is the case, why do media filter open critisms of govrnmnt. why is it that if a paper does not support the govt it is repressed,and made hard to posess by the common ppl. and mostly organisations who are accepted or devoid of any anti gvrnmnt idealisms are given sponsorships whilst the latter shunned, oppressed. why do gvrnmnt have power to meddle in the parliament system of the country. if the answr is no,these two are not linked in the slightest, surely we intelligent ppl can see that it is not fully transparent...not as we would like it to be. why arent our ppl as educated as in developed countries? why are there so much corruption,and are we truly unable to stop it. actually what are the main problem or issues that we need to tackle for the betterment of future generations..the mindset,definitely..are we focusing on too mch entertainmnt, lacking in educating our young minds? maybe. an ovrdose of AF? *grins* . A glance at a small yet very respected neighbouring country sees its leaders with impressive portfolios..intellects in their choosen field and holding degrees from profound institutions... harvard,MIT,oxford,with first class honours....while where are we heading to? out of space using russian technology? and yes..we could do a lot of good to get bttr cctvs to at last catch one high profile crook to satisfy the public..
