What if we don’t have newspaper anymore? News are being broadcasted through television or radio and directly transmitted on the net. It is normal for people to receive news online. It is the fastest way to get information. With all the information at our fingertips, it’s easy to be updated all the time. Imagine...
In the future, newspapers are made obsolete. Every morning instead of turning newspaper pages and getting fingers dirty with all the lead, the humming computer or laptop is turned on. No more rustling sounds of pages turned, just click-click sounds that signals each web page that is being read.
Kopitiam no longer provides newspaper to their frequent customers. Instead a brand new laptop sits atop each table opened to the latest news forum or the hippest e-paper that hit the net. Customers order their drinks while browsing the net. As they leisurely enjoyed burning hot or ice cold tea/coffee while being engrossed in the latest story. Normal packets of nasi lemak and mee goring that are wrapped in newspaper are replaced by oil paper. No more reading last year’s news when eating our nation’s best loved food.
Suddenly there’s no electricity. It is not surprising as tnb can be very erratic and operate according to a woman’s mood. There’s no electricity to power computers and laptops. Customers grumbled. How do they receive news now?
