What are the words they use? #Winou_Pétrole



After a long and quite popular online campaign about the natural resources in Tunisia. Online activist have made it a national movement that have spread very fast.

Media haven't started covering the online campaign until it got very big on Facebook.
One of the very positive effects of suck democratic form of expression, is a hearing session of the minister of industry, energy and mines in the house of representatives, about the subject of natural resources in Tunisia.




I have taken a quick break from what I was doing to make this cool word cloud, of the most used words in the hearing session. It would give a good view of the discussion topics and the direction of the talks between representatives and the minister.
