WTO finally pulls up errant China
China has had so many issues with patents that it could actually patent its expertise on restricting intellectual property and on giving nightmares to copyright owners! The dragon has lost yet another trade battle with the US in the World Trade Organisation in August 2009 – it’s third loss to the US since last year.
The gilded cage that China has created by restricting imports of DVDs, music, books, software is described by the panel as discriminatory and not in line with the policies of WTO. In 2007, 11.7 million Americans were employed in these copyright industries and foreign sales totalled $126 billion in 2007 – thus, the damage done to American businesses is significant. The international theft of all kinds of intellectual property has resulted in the loss of 750,000 American jobs. And because of its sheer size and lousy copyright laws, China has long been the focus of American and global concern.
