…It has been quite sometime I've been toying with the idea to raise this issue, the trend of some unscrupulous people fond of adopting the 'cut, copy and paste' culture of other people's belonging whether in the sense of intellectual properties basically ideas or creation. The purpose of writing is not against or promoting the culture but to highlight the impact and affects if everyone accepts it as part of the culture.
There are number of factors of why some people are eager to put emphasis on this trend. I have identified the contributing factors, namely:
- Having a negative attitude
- Habitual
- Lack of creativity
- Unable to construct and elaborate ideas
- Lack of writing skill
- Lack of self confidence
- Time constraint
- Being pressured
As an inference, people who execute this trend typically comes from the following category :
1. students
2. writers
3. researchers
4. educators
5. module developers
6. producers
7. designers
8. advertisers
The positions above mentioned are part of many known jobs and even form a 'network of integrated efforts' to the copy and paste attitude. Between the lines, we creators have unintentionally unlocked ourselves to certain risks. In most cases, this trend has been responsible to making some people changing their priorities in life full of instant desires – to be promoted, to graduate, to please the boss, to please the parents – in short – to cut corners and dangerous shortcuts. Students studying in higher institutions for instance, are the highest group of people who have acquired the copy and paste trend in their everyday lives. Fear to embark on the seemingly impossible skills which lead to desperation, they unknowingly have contributed to the unsustainable nurturing of 'thwarted innovation and creativity'. Thus, every assignments and researchers done are purely and meticulously from the 'cut, copy and paste' origins. Some students nowadays are easily being persuaded to imitate the peers work from the very top to the bottom of the line. Despite, this trend of breaching the copyrights can still be controlled, however this worrying lifestyle will increase and dominate. Soon, the thing we call facts will become irrelevant due to some students constantly tampering the original theories or hypothesis.
Like I said earlier, it is quite impossible to stop this copy and paste trend completely. Right after the information and communication technology era flushing through all the system in and out, people are rapidly shifting from the traditional formats to the new digital approach. With abundance of information readily available from the Internet, ICT has served and well-prepared for the multi-skilled learning environment and even provide people with sources of income. On the other hand, ICT has also now becoming excessively dangerous where some people are lured to commit unthinkable crimes even recreating technology to overcome solutions.
Truth has now being said, based on experience and knowledge, the trend of copying and pasting will totally drag people away from positive traits - know where to draw lines, living with goals, creativity, leading to something new and genuine, positive behavior, willing to take risks, imaginative, accepting improvement and being unique. Today, things we see in this world are merely imitations and simulations via all kinds of means. The terms that we use to claim as original and innovative are now becoming inappropriate. What we visualize, hear and respond to are truly being cultivated from the main trend which subsequently dominated our entire ways of life.
Writer: this article is my first to highlight the controversial issue which hopefully could change everyone's mindset.

Dear Viewers and fans,
To Eva, I will keep you in touch with your request. There are quite a number of women who talk about business but mine is different. I will make sure that what is written come from my heart and soul. Business is very fragile. I look at it as my part and parcel of my life and interest.
To David, let's hope that from today onwards, people will aware and have a sense of appreciation towards others properties. I will always advice myself and others, to work, to experience and to help others too. Without them, we will not have so much to share, thus we tend to copy and paste other people experience and life.
Good day to everyone.
