i wonder the same too, Malaysia's Film Censorship Board had always been strict esp this year (i heard even malay film got warning for using english in the film -LoL-). With such storyline, even if the board allows it, i think they'll definitely cut out parts they felt inappropriate even though its not ~sigh~

Very interesting. At first I thought the title meant it was coming to North America too, but I think I lost my head for a second. Still, this is an interesting development, thank you for sharing smile
