Brief Extract: “…..that if we don’t want equity in the whole idea of fashioning a bochap, brutish and ferocious society that is based on the law of the jungle; where only the fittest and the most intelligent survive and the weakest perish and deserve to die – then we can no longer remain bovine and dissociated ourselves from the choices we regularly make; it matters little whether it’s an innocuous or even a benign act – like a blog surfer who only reads only big blogs like The Online Citizen whilst disregarding small sites like the Singapore Daily or Tomorrow.SG – my point is even by that seemingly innocent act; unbeknown to many of us; we may actually be unconsciously fashioning a dystopian landscape by snuffing out the thousands of small voices out there in blogoland who all have something valuable to say to wordsmith the ongoing social narrative.

BRIEF EXTRACT: “Now I know what some of you are going to say right now; come on Darkness! Cheong Yip Seng et al isn’t proposing anything close to what you may have just share about the conditions that tipped the scale on Sufiah Yusof or the Annabel Chong’s of this world. All he’s really saying is kids should be told about the negative aspects of the internet, very much in the way road signs regularly warn motorist of bendy roads and blind corners. What’s wrong with that? I disagree. You see the way I see it, there’s absolutely no wisdom (none whatsoever, unless you consider ploughing marina bay a sound enterprise) in trying to tell kiddies what is good or bad these days. My point is, things have changed so dramatically; that the old methods of influencing kids may not even work reliably any longer; makes far more sense these days to treat kids like adults and consider empowering them with the ability to find out for themselves what’s actually good or bad by teaching them how to think critically and if possible even laterally.” CLICK HERE 3: http://dotseng.wordpress.com/2009/01/17/why-mica-needs-a-new-ray-gun-to-win-the-internet-war NEW ARTICLE: WHY MICA NEEDS A NEW RAY GUN TO WIN THE INTERNET WAR – THE PERILS OF USING OLD SOLUTIONS TO SOLVE A NEW PROBLEM.
