2.  Recently, concerns have risen regarding the
negative effects cybercafés may have on
students.
 We decided to look into this problem by using
questionnaires to draw answers without
making our motive seem apparent to the
respondents.

3. A cybercafé is a café that has a number of personal
computers available for use by customers.
 iPro and NBK are two of the most popular cybercafés
in Gadong.
 Open from 10 am to 12 am everyday.
 Illegally extend business hours past 12 am
occasionally.
 PCs are designed for gaming purposes, complete with
gaming peripherals.

4.  To investigate:
 how much timeacademic students are spending in
cybercafés nowadays
 whether they’re spending extra money on food and
beverages
 the amount ofrest they are getting
 what they and the customers think of cybercafés
 if cybercafés have any true negative influences
