>>Luciano Huck: Brazil is changing, and I'm a witness to this, in the streets, in homes,
and in families. We have no Arab Spring in Brazil. But we are seeing now a digital spring
in Brazil through social networking. Even without broadband and with a dramatic digital
divide, Brazil is a world power when it comes to social networking.
We are a networked country. Brazilians are reaching out to each other in new ways. They
are becoming active in each other's lives and in their country development. They are
taking on the streets, demanding quality public -- this was a few months ago, two months,
three months ago -- demanding quality public service and transparency.
I think that social awareness is growing via the Internet.
