May I add something...

If there is a change wanted, we need to make it not wait for it.

Now you guys analyzed the issue. So, what is the solution.. is there any solution for this?? Yes!

In any other developed country like UK or else, there is only ONE difference between them and Malaysia; the Industry Rights; in other words, (People's Power) and (Intellectual) and (Human Rights) activities.

In brief, people in those countries have developed local laws to guarantee a minimum level of salaries and fares, and that is why they value art and design. The art is also highly valued in their school educational system.. the media, and everywhere. Artists there have the highest salaries and the highest social positions in the country. The same thing applies to hairstylists and makeup artists, any kind of ART.

In there, before a company buys a design, they double think about it... they ask for high leveled design. And in that case, this benefits in the two-sided problem; one is the income of good design, and two is the minimum standard of a good a design.

So, in Malaysia, there should be intellectual movements/association builders to add to the local low to protect the rights of the industry. Just like there is a minimum level of the fare for medical/educational services, there should be a minimum level of the fare for art and design services. This is the only way to add to the local law and guarantee industry rights... again, if there is a change wanted, we need to make it not wait for it.

Design society needs to unit their ideas and effort, make activities to spread the raise this awareness among people, and try to start associations which can easily add to the local law and contribute to developing the country.

It is not impossible!
