Nope, they are still bringing books to school, even though (for now) they keep most of the heavier ones in the class cupboard. The JC kids have it better. Their bags look lighter. :P
Yep, we do have the potential to do something different. Ebooks are weightless. Might appeal to the image-conscious Singaporean (who want to be seen with iphone, ipad and whatever).
Heh - my bag in JC looked lighter because we had notes we had to buy every week instead of textbooks. but in the end it turned out to have GIANT fucking amounts of paper - and that's not even including the TYS that we had to use, one for each subject.

And tried not to even buy the TYS if I could help it.
