Volume 16, No 16,February 2002



Lately, piracy and counterfeits of Intellectual Property has assumed alarming, rather horrifying dimensions in thecountry. Everything or anything having some commercial value is being faked. Pirates are filling their coffers and building personal empires on the debris of national economy. Not only this, but these unscrupulous elements are playing with the health and lives of innocent citizens by making fake medicines, consumer items or even auto parts. To safe guard their interest, and also in the process, help build national economy, the IPR owners of national as well as multinational business concerns have started anti-piracy campaign under the existing laws. A local company, Royal IPR Security Services (Pvt) Ltd; designed and established over years as infringement control specialist set up, is carryingout anti-piracy operations on behalf of the IPR owners all over Pakistan. To create general awareness regarding necessity to eliminate this social evil from our society, Reflections has decided to dedicate some space for printing about on going AP operations on regular basis. Here are some glimpses of the actions carried out by them during past month:
