No point of complaining about it on various international forums. That will change nothing. I would take the practical approach and buy those books from a cheaper country, so to speak, using VPN. And perhaps ask the local publisher why they charge so much for English-language ebooks (no translation involved or anything). It would be interesting what their reply would be.
