   People in Malaysia already think that

The way to correct this is by teaching people "free software berarti bebas,
bukannya tanpa harga."  Harus ulang diucap banyak kali.

That now we are doing now. We do road tour to all University and any private events to tell them that OSS/FOSS/FLOSS are "Freedom".
 

   This happen several past years when
   other OSS community fight between FOSS community and FLOSS community and the
   result war hate each others and make our people afraid,hate, fear, crap

Aneh sekali.  "FOSS" ialah "free and open source software".  Ini
sesuatu cara untuk mendukung keduanya, software bebas dan sumber
terbuka.  "FLOSS" cara yang lain untuk itu.  Aneh sekali ada
pertempuran di antara FOSS dan OSS atau FLOSS.

Yep. We know in not good for us if the community keep having war but now community are on sleep mode. I need to poke them all and create hype to wake of all them.
 

Kami dari gerakan software bebas tidak mau tempur dengan pendukung
sumber terbuka.  Mereka bukan musuh kami.  Musuh kamilah software
penjajah.  Kami berkata, falsafat sumber terbuka tidak jahat,
melainkan lemah saja.

   We would use GNOME usergroup for "Free Software" term dont worry about that
   we will put our banner or bunting and design that GNOME was free software
   not using OSS/FOSS/FLOSS term. We will slowly adopt it to our culture about
   "FREEDOM" word to our community.
 

Baik sekali, terima kasih.  Kebebasan pengguna perlu bantuan anda
dengan bantuan kami.

 
Yes, we need GNOME, GNU, FSF or other related organisation to help us to build good communication and keep the relationship. Although your word some of it sound like indonesian :). Thank to you all
