What’s the point? We have wasted 70 plus years since independence. We are still a poor country with GDP per capita at around 3000 usd, while other Asian countries are surging ahead! We were recently downgraded by Fitch ratings too.. this is what the country has come to.. what a gutter situation to be in. We have our politicians to blame for all this, and the villagers who keep voting them in! We the people are paying the price.

Using this technology for the entire Parliament will be opposed by the MPs.They will lose their Allowances and the Dansala meals in the Canteen. They are not worried that it is Tax Payers ' money.
