The Arena

Once again, I was drawn towards the above mentioned TV program by mere coincidence.

The earlier rounds was a whole load of mess, made up of stage frightened armatures who tried to squeeze a whole load of information within their time frame using fake ang moh accents. Its like casting many many small hooks into the ocean hoping for a big catch.

This episode, I thought was much better as I could finally decipher the majority of what they're saying. However, the topic itself - Are our youths Politically Apathetic, as can be seen in the vote, hugely favours the winners of the day. Credits must also be given the petite boy who was witty in speech and able rebut the hard fact that stating some facts and figures along doesn't justify the entire young population's stand.

Matter of the fact is, the younger generation is brought up in such a safe and stable environment under the same governance that they did not feel a need to be in the know, or to even fight for a change. Not to mention their continuous big victories and walkovers at past elections, such that the results could've already been anticipated.
