Yahoo! poll results: Asset Sales
Well, it's been a contentious issue for both the public and the government.
Thousands have been taking to the streets over the past few months to encourage a revolt against the Mixed Ownership Model Bill, which would see public power companies partially privatised.
We polled our readers and came up with much the same results as other polls.
Nearly 3000 people, 63% of the vote, disagreed with selling off assets, while 32% agreed.
Only 246 of those polled were undecided.
Vote in today's poll: Do police chase procedures need to be re-thought?
