Malaysia is not a poor country by any means.( Oil, Timber, Electronic) The govt can afford to pay for legal software. Teaching children 'stealing is OK' is certainly not right. IF the money spent on fancy ( partially occupied) buildings is diverted to education, Malaysia won't be in this spotlight.
If you cannot afford it, don't use it.. or write your own. By the way Malaysia is top place for pirated DVD. Highest credit card crime. So teaching kids to steal is right in line?
