[보도] Intellectual 한게임 슬롯 쿠폰 safer in Korea

Contrary to views that protection for intellectual 한게임 슬롯 쿠폰 rights is weaker in Korea than for general 한게임 슬롯 쿠폰 rights, the country’s ranking is higher for intellectual 한게임 슬롯 쿠폰 rights protection, according to a survey by the 한게임 슬롯 쿠폰 Rights Alliance, an international think tank and lobbying group.

The Center for Free Enterprise, a local libertarian think tank that also participated in the survey, said Korea has strong measures in place to protect patents and trademark rights, whereas the country has complicated procedures for the registration of physical properties.

This makes it difficult for individuals and companies to freely exercise their physical 한게임 슬롯 쿠폰 rights, the center said.

The U.S.-based 한게임 슬롯 쿠폰 Rights Alliance released its 2008 International 한게임 슬롯 쿠폰 Rights report on Tuesday.

It analyzed data from 115 countries and created an index to measure the significance of physical and intellectual 한게임 슬롯 쿠폰 rights and their protection.

According to the report, Korea ranks 23rd in intellectual 한게임 슬롯 쿠폰 rights with an index of 6.7, while it ranks 48th in physical 한게임 슬롯 쿠폰 rights with an index of 6.2.

“In the intellectual 한게임 슬롯 쿠폰 index, patents and trademark rights carry a lot of weight.

Korea, with its developed corporate sector, is protecting them well, though it is relatively weak in the protection of copyrights,” Choi Sung-no, a fellow at the Center for Free Enterprise, said yesterday.

“For physical 한게임 슬롯 쿠폰 rights, Korea’s complicated set of procedures for the registration of new properties such as new plants has lowered the country’s ranking.”
In overall 한게임 슬롯 쿠폰 rights protection, Korea ranked 36th with an index of 6.2.

Finland took the top position with an index of 8.6, while Norway, Denmark, the Netherlands and Germany tied for second.

Most of its Asian rivals ranked higher than Korea, with Singapore taking the 13th position with 7.9 and Japan and Hong Kong tied for the 16th position with 7.7.

China ranked much lower, at 62nd, with an index of 5.
