truly spoken.. sometimes we feel that the society purposely or by nature 
slaves, just like that exist in olden days. They dont mind being told 
what to do and give their wealth to their masters, almost entirely 
foreign and forcing us to be placid, decadent and demure - void of any 
cability to innovate, create and challenge the status quo.

In challenging the status quo is what i find in many of us here, 
starting from Azrul's cybermerdeka speech, it impresses me even for i do 
not even dare to speak like that. I mostly rant. But i guess we need to 
borrow from Azrul here, we need some style and some proper headlines. I 
like to repeat them here:

1. We have lost 4 billion ringgit in licensing fees paid to foreign 
companies that can be saved

2. Innovating and creativity has nothing to do with business and profit 
taking but failues and audacity to challenge the norms. Otherwise do not 
talk about Harvard, Oxford or Stanford. Better talk about Hong Kong and 
Taipei or Singapore - they are all great copycats but possess no 
intellectual property.

We must admire RMS. Read about his life online and you can see what he 
is made of. Not of the lowly castes of mankind, but of nobelity and 
royalty. He is a king that seeks to do good and forbid evil. He turns 
down funds for the sake of the sanctity of his message. More muslim than 
i am.
