Would the ACs still work? Would the paintwork still shine? Would the interiors be flooded with hawkers and beggars? Would the glass doors swing open once you give them a gentle push?

It’s like designing an open OS to trigger innovation and attract prodigious amount of funding. It is more than owning singular apps, which is what Odu’a Investment seems to be engaged in at the moment.
