    This is a Malaysian pirated version of TED. This isn't TED but TEDx.

    I would rather hope the organizers change the logo or something until they have an official approval. Even the tagline is stolen. It feels depressing like Malaysia ruining another cool international thing and by doing this it shows like we are the stupid little kids desperately trying to get into the international Internet crowd. And that's what we'll always be if we keep doing this.

      Sorry but this is officially a TEDx from TED.
      It was an over look from my part of the logo but thanks for the feedback.

    TEDx program details and information about the original program:
    http://www.ted.com/pages/view/id/258

    And according to the information I read, a TEDx organizer has to register on TED before given the right to use the material and organize a TEDx.

    • cerventus May 28, 2009 at 2:39 pm #

      Yes.

      And that has been done on our side.
      The hash tag is #TEDxKL and the event name is TEDxKualaLumpur.

      If you look at the upcoming event page it is listed there. It has not been updated for the date change.
