> How did Minister Balakrishnan even find the time to dabble with hardware and programming? These top civil servants are very, very busy!

(work) life is about priorities, and if he really wants to give back in this way, he can apparently delegate enough stuff to achieve it. Probably all politicians can, if they wanted...

I wish more (all!) countries would have similar people put into places of real popwer in governments.

Is the blog itself also delegated? I've seen CEOs send out "personal" notes that were drafted entirely by a PR team.
