And my response to that is:  Of course!  But it just so happens that
every weekend, our classical music slots are dedicated to showcasing Asian
talents, whether in the performing or composing fields.  On weekdays, it's
everything else, Asian or non-Asian.  I don't speak for the station on this
since I have nothing to do with any of the station policies, but I think
being a radio station situated in Southeast Asia, I don't see what's wrong
with having a small section of our own programmes dedicated to showcasing
genuine talent from our own region.
