Late Night Gaming Banned In Vietnam

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the sleep-is-important dept.

R3d M3rcury writes "Vietnam's Ministry of Information and Communication has asked ISPs to block access to on-line games between 10:00PM and 8:00AM. 'The request, made on Wednesday, is another move from the authority to mitigate the side effects of online games. The request follows numerous stiff measures by the ministry to tackle the issue, including cutting internet access to agents at night beginning last September.'"

    So, now rather than the schedule being something like
    School -> Homework -> Games
    It will be
    School->Games->Homework
    Homework refers to anything productive done..
    So, rather than spending the end of their day gaming, when you would be tired anyways, spend the time when you are not so tired gaming, and the time when you are tired doing productive stuff.
    How is that good??
