BEIJING, Apr.21 -- Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao has reiterated his
confidence in China's ability to fight piracy, stressing that IPR
protection is as important as protecting productivity.
"China will establish an effective system for intellectual property
rights (IPR) protection with strict law-enforcement and strong
supervision," Wen said during his visit to an ongoing IPR protection
exhibition held at the Chinese Military Museum in Beijing.
Wen said China's efforts will focus on four aspects: enhancing law
enforcement, improving administrative supervision, broadening
international co-operation and fostering IPR protection awareness among
the public.
The exhibition is open to the public from April 16 to 23. Hundreds of
counterfeit goods are on display and there are booths highlighting the
protection of trademarks, copyright and patents from different government
departments and domestic companies.
"The exhibition shows Chinese government's determination to fight
piracy," Wen said, adding that the government is firm on IPR protection
and it meets the needs of China's modernization drive and is the
country's commitment to the international community.
On the same day, a press conference was held in Beijing by several law
enforcement and IPR departments of the central government to show China's
progress in fighting piracy in 2005.
Wen's comments coincide with President Hu Jintao's state visit to the
United States where the issue of piracy is a hot topic at present.
Meanwhile, in Washington, visiting Chinese President Hu Jintao pledged to
step up protection of intellectual property rights at aluncheon attended
by hundreds of government and business leaders on the second day of his
visit to the United States.
"We will continue to improve the legal system for IPR protection, step up
law enforcement and crack down hard on IPR infringement to protect the
lawful rights and interests of foreign IPR proprietors in China in
accordance with the law," Hu said.
