    "content": "Thank you, Madam Deputy Speaker. I want to make very brief remarks. First, I will talk about the strikes and incidents around our schools. It is my view that the curriculum is overcrowded for our children. The situation has even become worse with COVID-19 because a heavy curriculum has now had to be dealt with in the context of a backlog. There is only so much that a human can sustain. It is impossible to raise children while subjecting them to the kind of study programme that we are subjecting them to at the moment. Secondly, as nation, we must find ways of balancing between the freedom that we so much cherish and ways of limiting exposure of our children to social media. Some countries in the East have gone to the extreme with very high limitations, but other countries, where I think we fall, have been very liberal when it comes to exposure to social media. Some of the bad habits that our children are espousing are a direct influence from social media. My second issue is on the IEBC. One, we must respect court orders however painful they are. The commissioners said today that they do not have money and that makes sense."
