Malaysia entertainment
When I was in my car with my girl friend in Indonesia few weeks ago. The father stopped by a book store and ordered a gossip magazine. My girl friend grabs the first bite and read through it and shout “See! Told you they have some relationship going on!” the whole car was filled with discussion on both of the celebrities.
Suddenly I thought, even Chinese there also interested on their local entertainment industry, they listen to their music and on and on. Here in Malaysia has the freedom to choose the area of entertainment and most of us choose not to follow what happening in Malaysia. I remember one guy (Should be Tun if I remember correctly) says that “Learn from the east” (Literally translated from Mandarin), and we really do go in-depth don’t we (Chinese)?
Indonesia has a limited channel/show in their country. They’ve been exposed a lot locally, that is the “freedom” I don’t wanna have though. And I think that’s exactly why Malaysia has a different point of view. But this doesn’t really help Malaysia though in my opinion. Firstly, this would stop Malaysia entertainment business to grow slow or might not even grow. Remember, Bahasa only happen to be in a few country, or maybe only Malaysia and Indonesia in my knowledge. Evern since the movie “Bawang Merah, Bawang Putih” came into Malaysia, Indonesia films has taken over Korea and Japanese! And where is Malaysia stands?
However, if Malaysia limited their channel like what happen in Indonesia, I think many oppositions parties would come out for the rakyat So, Malaysia being controlled by the people and that cut down the growth of entertainment business and losing a lot of money onto buying channels from around countries… Or so… Because things are very unclear on both side, if you know what I mean.
