Pretty much the same, except it’s in Penang and it’s still new enough that you are able to appreciate the music without disruption from the party crowd. And they don’t sell beer, so it’s a reasonably sober crowd.
heheheh.. RWMF is the original one.. PWMF is a copycat. Remembered an article which stated that the Penang authorities wanted to take the RWMF to Penang…. in which STB objected..
and they have every right to to so.. RWMF is only to be held in Kuching, Sarawak..

cdason: I’m sure STB appreciates your support and RM90/day contribution to this year’s festival. :-)

so is RWMF the copycat of other existing World Music Festivals?
