Emigrating away will get those youngsters to a better society. Reading will hopefully make them realise how hopeless it is to continue to live here.

Reading is no use without putting it into practice. And, reading is not helpful without seeing things practically.

Hope our Politicians will get the message though it is not aimed at them. Only a handful of politicians are readers. Good on you guys for this message to all of us

The digitised world destroyed reading books and writing skills. With short messaging over internet apps. Having a tweeter account everyday I find posts that arouse lust.
Photos of half exposed bodies and the replies.
The rich culture now becomes a history to few song writers, and poems (KAVI)
I also see the takeup or adherence to digitisation especially the young have exceeded the young in the developed world
