It will be the best reward for the 33.3% who have remained steadfast in their views. It is about integrity and courage. The internet is neutral but as a tool it is super effective in exposing this govt's activities and will continously serve as a reminder to the public. Not possible for this govt to flush the negatives which they were able to with the MSM. They must deal with it. But I have serious doubts. LOL Simply because we have the mentality of little boys running the country. LOL The powerful govt will stand nonplussed if they lose their pants, and about time too !

The Internet is not an adversary, not to the govt. or to anyone for the matter, it is an electronic platform for many good issues and at times for bad ones! It's a perfect outlet for some to vent out anger, frustrations or making a point behind a screen. Many seems to use the Internet as a weapon to leash out at someone, for the matter, the govt. here, but not as a tool to repair soured relationship, bring about positive changes etc. Its great what the internet generates, good or bad, I am sure the Govt. will pick up the postives and flush the negatives!!!

BUT #1 weapon is slowly being neutralized by the INTERNET. Propaganda, cover ups, bullshit explanations are highlighted and debated in cyberspace. 66.6% are slowly enlightened and 18 year old students with critical thinking will be eligible to vote in 3 years time. More adversaries for the PAP to handle. IBA made the powerful PAP close to dropping their pants. Will more adversaries coming from 66.6% make them lose their pants ? LOL 33.4 % are the PAP’s adversaries, no problem for the PAP.
