Now, I don’t have anything against the entertainment sector. But I do think that we need the civic infrastructure and public infrastructure. That is to say, the digital equivalent of university campus or public park on one side and town halls on the other side, maintained by the academic and social sector and the public sector respectively, so that people can find these places when they go online. I mean, in Japan, there are also social entrepreneurs. I learned of the PoliPoli platform, by way of Digital Agency, where they’re tackling exactly the same problem by building first a civic infrastructure now a public infrastructure.
