Hi. Thank you for your comments.
The good definition of great researchers should also relate to their contribution to the community, where they lives, where they started to formulate research problems rooted from what they see in their community.
The definition of local vs international is moving forward right now. Also how we can communicate our research to wider community is also changing, in a sense that we should put local community as our priority. After all, we do our research to solve their problem at the first place.
Communicating our results internationally should not be defined as strictly to publish in international journal. We could always publish in local language in local journal and disseminate it using English in a more casual online media to get the attention. That way, we could initiate public/expert peer review. Peer review is a process which is not exclusively owned or initiated by academic journal.
