       To evangelise OpenStreetMap in Malaysia, I reckon a snippet of the free/libre culture is important to explain how OSM works.Too many times I caught people updated street names in OSM from proprietary sources (don't really have to guess which one).Some Malaysians (?) thought the "open"ness in OSM is the freedom to not respecting copyrights.P.S. piracy over here is... uh, might stay high for many years to come. OTOH works made in MY produced under Creative Commons is not readily available...

       @AkuAnakTimur TBH the "pirate culture" is also a thing in parts of Northern Europe, to the point where in particular USA producers won't even licence their content to the public broadcasters of some countries as they feel that copies of them are more likely to be pirated and uploaded to YouTube, and/or insist on greater restriction of streams and use of proprietary rather than open source delivery networks (they really don't like those which allow MP4 downloads..)

       @vfrmedia In terms of culture (music, especially), well, IMHO, at least that explains why artists would perform in worldwide tours, especially in Europe. That's a sure way to turn a lot of bucks compared to licencing broadcasts.

       @AkuAnakTimur @vfrmedia Popular Thai songs from rural area now are allowed to be sung by others. I feel that it is mainstream here now.
