Dilbert Dumbo

This is dumb really...

It is not about Singapore being any hub, but the infamous story about a 17 year old sex video has been spreading on the internet like wild fire. Such story is hardly a compliment to Singapore's squeaky clean image.

Upon further look, I came to realized that this wild fire has been fanned by the interconnected blog sites that have posted the story and linked to the video. This is a clear example of the government's need to regulate blog sites. These blog sites act as quasi-news reporting media,

However, the reader reach of these blogs are in nowhere less when compared to the main stream media.


Some quasi conservative trying to ask the PM of Singapore to regulate blogs. He has better sense then to put such ideas into the Government's head. Of course they know, but does he need to remind them?

In Dilbert land, this is one of the whistleblowers in office. Also in Dilbert land, the smart alecks blowers get retribution, ie. tie/ shirt/ hair gets caught in paper shredder, spat on by colleagues, no lunches with colleagues... Smart ass alecks may not get promoted ok. Besides, what can you promote to? From grassroots RC helper elf to PAP Cadre Illuminati First Order bumbling?
