Someone left me a massage asking how much the Malaysia will gain if Malaysia introduce the ESPERANTO, not counting ASEAN lah, the ASEAN heads are all sleeping, as the words said, well, this termasuk (include) Malaysia lah.
HAHA, BIG BRO or small bro or sisters you are. I am not economist lah. Besides I did not have the data of Malaysia also in the spending on the goods from overseas but only can think of the easy one that you and I can hear daily-- the advertisements.
The advertisements in Malaysia are very special ones. They use multi-linguals, ranging from Malay, Chinese—cantonese, min nan(hokkien) to English. Of course, those less fortune ones, the orang asli, hakka, teochew etc can not have their dialects in the advertisements.
Don;t get Patrik Teoh to voice over, it is very expensive. Just by doing all the advertisements with different ethnic, the commercial firm, for example a coffee will charge the consumers more than single esperanto advertisement. I wondered did GRIN count on the Europe advertisements too.
The advertisement come with a detergent must have different faces to fill the ethnic dialogue. Mana ada 1Malaysia( where is the 1Malaysia) There cannot be neigbours of different races discussing about the detergent? Huh. The producers of the detergent, serbuk cuci, of course, does not mind lah. All the expenses will be shouldered by the consumers.
This is what I can think of if Esperanto can help to save cost for Malaysians.
