The "Digital" era

Featured Replies

I read many times stories about all countries opting for the Digital Currency and how this will give the ruling parties a complete control over the citizens.
Read many times horror stories about China, where such policy is already implemented and people could find themselves in a situation of poverty just because they spend money on something not acceptable to the ruling party.
But that was China, far from my bed.

Until I found yesterday this leaflet in my letter box, inviting all citizens of Johoi to "register" for a Digital Health Card (QR-Code).
But registering is only possible WITH A PHONE.

Seems that citizens are really like Cattle being led to the slaughter house

A bit like the 'proposed' digital money which 'may' be given to everyone.

Soon, if you don't have a mobile phone you won't exist.

Governments love mobile phones - phone use cell towers in fixed locations so they have the ability to know where you are everytime your phone pings the tower.

Our reliance on the internet for everything is a mystery to me - of course it's useful but again governments can close down internet access at their whim (Pakistan, Gaza recent examples).

Your AN legend says Korat - but you obviously have a registered address in Malaysia as well although the translation mentions "Thai people"- just curious how does that work and do you get free treatment?
