Culture protection

I had just read one of Veerle's blog's article. The article is mainly stating the concern of the author about the graphic design keeping system in Belgium. He compares it with the graphic design keeping system in the neighbor country, Netherlands.

While reading this article I think about Indonesia. Everybody knows that Indonesia had been having a lot of fight with Malaysia about the culture infringement. I should say that actually Msyah's culture is so much like Indonesia's; that some parts of Indonesia culture is somehow a derivation from Malaysia; and currently there are so many Indonesian either migrating or work there. So our culture are so much mixed together, but some of them are actually quite obvious for belonged to whom. When Msyah took pieces of Indonesia to be patented, of course that will make us angry. But really to blame for is somehow ourselves, our government for being not care about our own. It's time now to identify all our identities, and protect them!
