A New Decade of Sharism

Technology matters, but the more important thing is whether people will be more open to sharing. I call it "sharism". The new spirit can help one person to make his or her thoughts known and plug into global social networks. Without doubt, the media world will be changed because of such paradigm shift -- as will sovereignty.

Those who believe in a top-down approach will still try hard to maintain a hierarchy so that they can keep their authority. But I'm sure they will learn many lessons as they begin to face the reality of losing their power. A purely top-down structure can destroy itself, whether we're talking about a country or a small organisation.
