computer science vs. economic poverty

-
I was browsing for some topics here in multiply and I saw an article on Sir JP's blog about the relation of computer science to economic poverty.

This is my comment posted to his blog:

I think this is dejavu, I have also discussed this with one of my past lunch topics.

You are correct about the "we have the tools to indirectly help them by providing efficient systems on different agencies that will, in effect, help the poor". But surely there will be some blocking on the road.

This is my answer:
Even though I don't believe in the authority concept, the first thing we should do is change the government with Technocrats - not those technology oriented people but those who had direct contact with technology.

I think with these people managing the country, projects will become a reality. Using a concept of Software Engineering in Computer Science, we do not stop until we satisfy the customer, which in this case the people. (Sana hehe.)

Movie Review: Full Metal Alchemist (Live-Action)

-
Finally, I was able to watch the live-action of Full Metal Alchemist. I can say, the visual effects and graphics were well-made. The locations were fitting for the movie. I think the actors who portrayed Lust and Hughes were a close look-alike to the anime. The scene when Nina became a chimaera, I remember it was a very sad episode. I think some scenes lack a believable script and portrayal. Too bad, the civil war was not developed well in this movie. Also, I expected more alchemy and action scenes. Anyway, where is Armstrong? Still, in the end, I enjoyed the movie. I hope they can make it better for the next instalment, if ever.

Satisfied with the Kobukuro ALL SINGLES BEST album

-
It has been a month since I bought the Kobukuro ALL SINGLES BEST that I have been searching for lyrics written in romanji. (Becasuse I am not a good reader of Kanji). Thanks to Amy's blog entitled "Obsessed with Kobukuro", I am now able to sing along with Kobukuro. I can now rest and say I'm satisfied. Here are the lyrics: Kimi toiu na no Tsubasa Shiwakucha no shashin ni wa Mabushikatta jikan to Yorisou bokura ga itai hodo Azayakani yakitsukerareteite Hagureta no wa kitto Dochira no sei demo nakute Ki ga tsukeba kimi wa boku no Naka ni sumi hajimeta Kachimake dake ja nai nanika wo Oshiete kureta REESU ga aru Issho ni hashitta tsumetai natsu no ame Aoi shibuki ni kasanaru zanzou Mizugiwa ni ukabeta kanjou Yorokobi ya kanashimi no kizu sae Tsutsumikonda yakusoku no hikari Akireru hodo massugu ni Hashiri nuketa kisetsu wo Sagashite mada boku wa ikiteru Machigai darake no ano hibi ni Oto shita namida to kotae wo Mune ippai ni kaki atsumete mou ichido...
