Without co-operation, photographers as individual actors will always be shortchanged and unable to exercise fully their rights and creators and authors of their works. Singapore will be left with a huge pool of amateur photographers who are desperate for any job, and will do them at cut-rate prices without reserving any of their rights at all. You get what you pay for, so cheapskate companies will get lousy photographers and lousy work, which then leads to the companies hiring foreign photographers for the job at higher prices.
Recommended by mrcamera: "Multinationals and Corporations pressure our Govt. bodies to safeguard their intellectual properties but what about the local individual content creators like us photographers? We have to continue to buy original software and update our equipment too, but how like that?"
