One HD audio should be in original Korean language because that is more natural than those fake dubbed language (look at 391 ). There is a small korean community living in Malaysia who understands Korean.

Subtitles should be in malay, english, chinese and should be selectable for non-koreans. There are many foreigners living in Malaysia that only knows English (eg. arabs, africans )

Maybe ass-throw wants to save money by not hiring english and chinese translators ?

Malaysians are too rich, pay rm20 for crap.

That's why astro is getting richer and richer and Ananda is now the xxx richest man in the world.

Can we have one Thai channel in original Thai language ?

We don't have a channel for our nearest neighbour but have one for arab channel which is million of miles away ?

channel 131 don't have non dubbed thai shows, it is malay channel and also not in family package.

U think no thai tourist in malaysia when they are our nearest neighbour beside singapore ?

Not everyone is rich to subscribe to Wah Lai Toi. that package is double the family package price, totally not worth it.

We need a family package chinese HD channel just like the korean one hd channel.

In house HD is OK. Currently channel 301 AEC can be changed to HD.

Mandarin is the dialect of Northern China !

We are all southern chinese and Mandarin is NOT our mother tongue. Mandarin is used to communicate with different dialects in China because they don't know English. Not every Malaysian know Mandarin !

We don't want to be like Singapore where they have lost their ability to speak their mother tongue.

Added on January 23, 2011, 9:54 amI think all these young Mandarin educated don't mix around a lot (other than their parents and their close friends).

Not ALL malaysians know how to speak or read Mandarin.

The older English educated Malaysian chinese only know the popular dialects such as Cantonese or Hokkien.

The shows should be shown in the original language whether it is cantonese or hokkien or mandarin.

Those dubbed language where the actor /actress is not the original voice is very FAKE ! I have seen it in Singapore and the acting voice is poor and not the original actor voice.

If you don't like to watch cantonese shows, just switch to Mandarin shows. Nobody forces you to watch.

Malaysia has cantonese (ch 304), hokkien (ch 333), mandarin (ch 301) so you have the choice. We need another channel to cater to the Hakka.

let's not argue with him. if he knows only mandarin, then let him speak mandarin only.

Malaysian chinese (eg. gary chow can speak both cantonese and mandarin) are well known in the chinese circle for the ability to speak multiple chinese dialects unlike singapore where they only speak mandarin.

Singapore loses to malaysian chinese.

So if you know only mandarin just watch the mandarin channels.

If you don't know hokkien, don't watch ch 333 etc, as simple as that.

I think all movies should be shown in the original language and NOT dubbed. The dubbed voice is awful.

If people don't understand, then show the chinese subtitles which is universal. Make all subtitles closed caption !

This I agree ! All original language shouldn't be dubbed.

Even singapore now is showing hokkien shows in starhub and not dubbed in mandarin.

While mandarin is important, but it is equally important to preserve our own mother tongue. Mandarin is NOT the mother tongue of any malaysians.

Eg. if you want to learn English, does that mean you shouldn't learn chinese because English is more important than Chinese ?

There is no problem for malaysians who go to china, hk or taiwan. Is there ?

just look at gary chow, ah niu, wu qi xian etc. they can speak multiple chinese dialects unlike singaporeans (AND YOU )

Have you been to china ? You will be shocked to know that many southern chinese DON'T know mandarin !

If you go to fujian or taiwan province to do business, do you think that mandarin or hokkien is more important ?

The same goes to gwangdong or HK, they will prefer to speak cantonese rather than mandarin because it is their mother tongue.

They would rather do business with people who speak their own mother tongue rather than mandarin which is not their mother tongue.

Don't get brainwash by those chinese medium teachers who has NO practical experience outside of their schools.

Buy an air ticket and go to China yourself. You are just like a 'frog under the well' brainwashed by those mandarin teachers.

Southern chinese speak their own mother tongue, the younger generation know mandarin but not the older generation. The older generation study their chinese books in cantonese, hakka or hokkien. Those chinese characters are NOT mandarin but chinese and can be read in any chinese languages.

Furthermore, the richest provinces in greater china is Gwangdong, HK (and Taiwan). Even the northerners migrate to gwangdong,HK to look for work.

You think that just because you speak Mandarin, you are very great and people will want to do business with you ?

There are tons of people who speak Mandarin in taiwan, but if you are able to ALSO speak hokkien, you will get the business (versus somebody speaking mandarin ONLY) as hokkien is closer to them. Same goes to gwangdong and HK.

Mandarin is a Manchurian influence language, the southern chinese languages are the true chinese languages.

Look, you still want to be stubborn and forget your mother tongue, so be it. But don't force other people not to learn their mother tongue.
