Malaysian, Super Pirates!

April 4th, 2005 in Writings

I just read yesterday’s Sunday Star. Yea, I know I am a little outdated. :P I turn the newspaper page by page scanning for good articles.

As I turn, I see this picture of a skull, look like the pirate flag in the One-Piece anime, drawn by Reggie Lee (if I’m not mistaken). The skull says something like this, “Looking for Star Wars Episode 3? Don’t worry, we have it on DVD9“. At the corner of the picture, it says something like this:

“Malaysia is the largest pirated entertainment software exporter in the world, according to some source”

First, I was shocked. Well, I can’t believe that Malaysia is the largest. Then, I’m amazed. Malaysians are a great pirates. I have not much comment on this issue, since I’m one of the everyone that supports the pirate. :yikes:

    so true….Malaysia in indeed a Pirate Haven.

    In fact, TVB tv series are released FIRST in Malaysia is to avoid the pirates pirating them. So, TVB rental shop have the latest TV series that is being shown in Hong Kong.

    And Hollywood sometimes show Movies in Malaysia earlier than other countries.
