Vietnamese Prime Minister Le Minh Hung has ordered a nationwide campaign against intellectual property (IP) violations from May 7 to 30, mandating at least a 20-percent year-on-year increase in the number of handled cases, the Vietnam News Agency reported Wednesday.
Under a recently issued official dispatch, authorities are ordered to intensify coordinated enforcement, targeting infringements involving geographical indications, copyright, counterfeit goods and trademarks, News.az reports, citing Xinhua.
The document noted progress in recent enforcement efforts but warned that infringements remain complex in several sectors, affecting the business climate and legitimate rights of businesses and individuals.
