World Cloud

Objective

 * To visualize recent speeches and press releases in a World cloud, to extract prominent themes and identify linkages.
 * In this way, it'll be our way of drawing inspiration from these ideas and speeches.

Approach

 * We updated the list of Resources on the Wiki with some of the speeches which we selected for inclusion in this research.
 * We then took some of the speeches and compiled them into a single document to be imported in to Wordle (avoiding potential problems with copyright, so using Google Docs)
 * Compiled Titah Sambutan Hari Keputeraan KDYMM, 2007-2012
 * We then used this as the input in to a world cloud generator.

Results

 * Some words that stand out: "Government", "Security", "Private sector" and "Services".

Observations

 * I think we need a bigger data set to do this kind of analysis ...
 * And it doesn't work well with Bahasa text either.
