Teens prefer hi-tech life

I have read this article from Today's Bangkok Post. Is this the way you and your friends are? How do you spend your time? Why don't you like reading? This news article is not difficult to read. There are more like this in the newspaper. Try it ka!

More than 95% of Bangkok's teenagers spend three hours a day on their mobile phones and 88% spend a similar amount of time glued to their computers, according to a recent poll. Assumption University's Abac Poll, which questioned 1,262 teenagers in the capital from Oct 26 to Dec 2, found that around 95.7% said they spent at least three hours a day on their mobiles while another 88.3% spent the same amount of time in front of their computers.

Watching television was another favourite pastime, with 94.6% of respondents claiming they spent more than four hours a day in front of the TV set.

The vast majority of students said they spent only 16 minutes a day reading newspapers.

Noppadol Kannikar, Abac Poll director, concluded that young people in the city are not interested in reading but prefer talking, watching TV and listening to the radio rather than following up current affairs themselves
