HOW EASY AND FAST TO COPY AND PRINT and CREATE A BOOK? You wont believe it but it's easy as pie. You only need printer and copier machine, printing press and the computer and voila you have a BOOK.

Copyrighted or not ...in this age of digital world anybody can copy. What I have written here maybe being copied in another country where copyrights are so lame or not being practice.

Also, if books are being copied without permission, you wont believe how CDs and movies in DVDs are being violated too. They have the money, they have the machinery, and they have people who have the expertise to do the process. Workers who are very smart and expert in such kind of labor.

Why they do that?

Have your movies made in the USA. Filmed in the US and then have all the workers from the director to the leading actors and actresses down to the small group of people who are included in the cast, filming, etc, etc, too many of them probably in hundreds to thousands, by the time you have the accounting of that said movie production the producer end up almost bankrupt and unable to move. Then here comes people from other countries with lower asking price who can settle the last format for the editing, machinery, and expertise well you know the "helping hand" to finish the product or the whole movie. Then years passed by and the movie is finished but cannot get play date or been stocked or canned for years without any income coming in. Later you see these movies in the third world country being marketed "at least" to have earnings. For some people they thought this is piracy but actually not. It's just that the long process that took place the movie got spoiled rotten and this kind of piracy just help to minimize the burden of the producer's input and needs to pay the whole cast.

The explanation above is just my own opinion. It maybe right or I am maybe wrong. Maybe-may B-gote.

Look at the many shops and ritzy boutique selling genuine leather bags and accessories all branded logos and style, products that are incredibly expensive. Not too many can afford such thing unless socialites who are endowed with gold cards or platinum cards. Imagine brand name handbags worth $5,000 to $10,000? Great God! That's already a down payment for a house or you can buy a car with that money.

Then you see some of these trendy hand bags which they thought not genuine and you stared at them whether it is real or fake. The only thing that matters is the "name" the brand name whether it is expensive or not. Then realized later it was actually fake? What is real and what is fake? It's just a hand bag. You are just paying for the "name" not the bag. Ewan whatever paki ko kung magbag sila ng mamahalin tapos wala naman silang makain sa pagbabayad ng bag na yun. Eh di yung fake na bag na lang ang bilhin mo para naman di ka magmukhang malnourished at may pambili ka pa ng pagkain mo.

Noon sa HK marami ding mga sinasabing fake garments, clothing, shoes, bags na makikita mo tinitinda sa sidewalk lang. Mamili ka ng gusto mo dahil yung iba ay brand name items din at saka hindi naman fake talaga. Yun pala dahil nga yung mga shopping malls ay di accessible sa mga shoppers or their former clients and customers due to the MTR or railways underground. The transportation or to commute from one place to another after work or after school is at the tunnel kaya pala makikita mo na yung items sa moving or mobile cart na lang itinitinda.

One time I watched a Japanese documentary matagal na ito, you can't see any stalls, or any people walking on the streets. Pati mga shop wala kang makita sa city. Yun pala all the happenings are underground. Bullet trains, MTR sa tunnel lahat. Kung meron mang car or vans may sariling private parking space sa mismong building. No parking space sa road.

Yung Lost in Translation na movie eh, ewan ko ba kung Japan yun. Parang HK ata. Visit Ayala Avenue and connecting districts of Makati and you'll find out na medyo ang atmosphere doon ay parang resemblance sa city of Japan. Then part of Quiapo area where the Isetann bldg. that's closer to a city of Tokyo sa view. Nung bata pa ako ay mahilig akong magbasa ng LIFE Magazine or Japanese magazine and some of the areas in Quiapo has similarities with the old Japan.

One time as I was looking for a box of needle, thread and fabric at the Quiapo area, one fabric store there close to the church has this very remarkable figurine kind of image. Actually she looks like a mannequin. Sobrang puti. Parang labanos ang kulay ng mukha nya from head to toe. While me and my friend was browsing at the fabric store all of a sudden the mannequin moves. OMG! My friend and I almost run away. Then tinawag kami nung clerk na amo daw nya yun. Japanese pala. Susme! She can stand beside the roll of fabric for more than 20 minutes without moving. Kala namin mannequin tao pala.
