Its actually saying .."dont copy farang's culture..be proud of your own culture..be proud of your music"...thats what the whole paragraph is trying to say

So, copying a page or a booklet, is "a fahrang culture" and is ashaming.

But, copying hundreds or thousends of products with a fahrang brandname (I strongly doubt that there is an original product in Thailand) like Luis Vuitton, brandname watches, brandname bags, brandname sunglasses, etc. is OK.

A word comes to mind starting with "H".

Personally, I find it inappropriate for this publisher to use the word "fahrang" and feel that it is insulting in this context.

I have read the same "Foreword" in VCD's as well.
