Any time is a good time for social awareness

For anyone following the region's news, yesterday, there was a car bomb explosion in Damascus - Syria (Estimated charge is 200 kgs of explosive material). The Syrian television was broadcasting all the follow ups. But instead of a flashing "DEVELOPING STORY" or anything, the screen had just the usual rotating news bar below which was saying: Decorating with electrical bulbs* is an unnecessary use of the current and a waste of public money (*for the upcoming end of Ramadan festivities). Well, any time is a good time for a social awareness call....
