US Says Copyright Piracy In China Still “Unacceptably High”

From AFP:

Copyright piracy in China remains at “unacceptably high levels,” causing “serious harm” to American businesses, the top US trade official said in an annual report to Congress Tuesday.

US Trade Representative Ron Kirk said in the mandatory report on China’s compliance with its World Trade Organization accession obligations that Beijing was not taking adequate steps to enforce intellectual property rights laws.

He said enforcement of China’s copyright protection “remains a significant challenge.”
