How come they do this?????? Do our academic community who have better attention to forward education in the name of science particularly those that come from for A-level institution dont have intention to at least stop them offerings this nonsense APC waiver (Dont misunderstand me guys, APC waive for me is OK since the journal acceptance is based on the acceptable standard in those discipline) and ban their nonsense sites from those who dont know anything about their doubtful scheme???? How far this would go as time goes by many potential young authors would be sacrificed as their research/study endeavors gone ashtray, particularly those that come from developing countries: Forgive me, dont misunderstand! I dont mean ALL authors from developing countries have this tendency to just publish their research in predatory journals. I even know some of my colleague have published in A-journal long before Jeffrey Bealls disseminates this wonderful list in his blog. Please forgive me Jeff, I dont mean to discredit you mate! I am an Indonesian from birth, I teach in university-level and interact also with those that come from elementary, high Scholl and non-degree institutions in this beloved country, but frankly from my experience in interacting with other student or even lecturer or researcher in Indonesia and other countries even those that come from what we call develop countries, some dont really care if they publish their paper in what we call questionable outlets as institution where they come generally dont care about this situation.
