Counterfeiting is still going to be a big issue in year 2008 even with all the large scale bust made by US customs and border security earlier this year and most recently this month.

According to DNR the annual Bush administration says China hasn’t done enough to put the US at ease by strengthening their control over counterfeiting and piracy which still remain at very high levels and directly affect US businesses. The US and China government has agreed to strengthen up their efforts by sharing information on customs seizures of counterfeit goods and improve enforcement of laws that prevent the improper use of a company?s name.

I really don’t see counterfeiting becoming a controlled issue anytime soon, but better efforts and improved security could definitely decrease the affect on the counterfeited businesses at hand.

    Counterfeiting is not an issue only in US but world wide. This is a contagious form that cannot be easily be stop. I have faith that the higher authorities are making the necessary action if not to totally stop it atleast minimize it.
