“The world has witnessed that since the inclusion of the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS Agreement) as one of the agreements of the WTO, intellectual property rights have become one of the key elements of the world economy. The rapid advance of technology, particularly in the field of information and communication has made intellectual property rights more and more important. Further, intellectual property rights have become unavoidable in relation to human interactions and the relation between nations.

These measures include revising the existing intellectual property laws and enacting laws on the new fields of intellectual property rights, strengthening the administration and capacity of the intellectual property office, and improving the awareness and understanding of the public on the importance of the intellectual property system, and fostering of closer and mutual cooperation with foreign intellectual property organizations.
With regard to the strengthening the administration and capacity of the intellectual property office, the Directorate General of Intellectual Property Rights of the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights as the government institution responsible for administering the intellectual property rights system in the country has also been working on the establishment of an integrated automation system coordinated by the Directorate of Information Technology. One of the priorities of the information technology program is the development of an internet website to disseminate”
