Add Philippines, India. Singapore to countries

I also submitted a movie title from the Philippines and it was denied. I wish you could include other dramas and movies from different countries in here as long as english subtitles are available so that watchers from other countries could be able to watch it. . The movie that i submitted had english subtittles and the story was something that people could relate to even across cultures.
i think it would be considered a growth for this site if the drama list would expand to dramas originating from greater number of countries. I myself is just beginning to watch thai dramas and movies after watching only korean and taiwanese drama for a long time. I found some of the the thai dramas and movies I recently watched through here.
i think if you open up the site to this possibility, there are more people in the community who would want to help you with creating and expanding that databse that is lacking.
i hope the admins would reconsider.


The message that i received :
Your title was denied.
Reason: We don't have a philippines database currently, hopefully we will add it soon. You can suggest for it to be added from here: http://mydramalist.com/discussions/suggestions If it gets enough votes and admin many add it.

what we can add are philippine movies. i'm proud of some philippine movies that were made (one more chance,  thing called tadhana, anak, etc). but as what realdeal said, i'm not sure about the dramas.

We will eventually add more countries. For now, we're just working on adding more titles/actors to the countries we do have.
Our mindset is that it is better to have a great deal of information on a few countries, rather than a few titles/movies/dramas from a lot of different countries. 

Heh, I was just wondering if Singapore existed!  Not that I've even watched any movies or dramas from Singapore, but just happened to see a movie in the database that I know for a fact is definitely a Singapore film and it's listed as being from Hong Kong.  I guess that would be why...

Is that not allowed, or is it a valid workaround??

Well, for your reference then: http://mydramalist.com/20228-in-the-room

Unless Singapore is coming soon enough that it can stay until then :)

@Skye-N-Rain surely adding more countries is just a matter of typing their names into the countries table?  is it really difficult?  I'd really like to be able to add vietnamese and cambodian dramas and movies.

Cool, thanks so much @Skye-N-Rain, I wasn't trying to be dismissive so thanks for taking my comment seriously (I only realised later how it might have sounded - but I used to build databases back in the day).  I saw another post that said there were forty-something asian countries but only 6 available here, it's been playing on my mind since then.  

Also just an aside, My mother only watches scandinavian TV and she was asking what MDL is I explained and she said "oh it would be so great if that existed for scandi TV" and I've had a few other scandi TV fans say the same thing, so maybe you could use the frame work for another market?
