Campaign taking on IPR violators
The State Council has launched a special campaign to protect intellectual property rights (IPR) throughout China. The campaign, which will continue until Aug. next year, aims to make further progress in IPR protection, Zhang Zhigang, director of the Office for the National IPR Protection Working Group, said yesterday during a Beijing news conference held by the State Council Information Office. The special campaign includes trademarks, copyrights and patents. It also targets the import and export of commodities, various expositions, fairs and wholesale markets, the processing of name-brand products, and printing and copying sites, said Zhang. Special efforts will be made in areas where large amounts of counterfeit products are sold, he stressed.
