PUTRA JAYA: The Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry would rope in artistes to create greater awareness against buying pirated VCDs and CDs. “If the public can be influenced by their idols on other things, why not on the purchase of VCDs and CDs?
"I believe artistes, whose livelihood and creativity are affected by pirated discs, can play an influential role in educating consumers,” Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Minister Datuk Shafie Apdal said at a press conference on Monday.
