Philippines making progress on software piracy: watchdog group
0 Comments | AFP, September, 2007
MANILA (AFP) — The Philippines is making progress in its fight against computer software piracy with 76 people arrested this year, an anti-piracy group said Tuesday.
Tarun Shawney, the South Asian director of the Business Software Alliance, an anti-piracy watchdog body, said that while piracy rates in this country were still high, government agencies were now consistently enforcing intellectual property laws regarding copying of computer programmes.
He called this a "fantastic achievement," which he credited to the government's creation of an anti-piracy task force in 2005.
The head of the national police intelligence group Noel delos Reyes said that from January 1 to August 31, they had arrested 76 people for suspected software piracy.
