Despite the claim that lojban is culturally neutral, there will always be problems with the claim unless more people outside Europe get involved in it. What is particularly surprising, given the etymology of lojban gismu, is that there appears to be no involvement from India, the Arab-speaking countries, and virtually none from China.
I have an idea about something I can do - but I want feedback from the lojban community first. My idea is to search the internet for Indian groups and blogs (many or even most will be in English) whose subject is languages - and use them to make members aware of lojban and why it's so great. This doesn't require me to be proficient in the language.
Comments and suggestions, please.
