The 18 ministries, including Ministry of Public Security (MPS), the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Culture, State Intellectual Property Office (SIPO), will jointly hold several activities during the "IPR protection week" to be unveiled on April 20.

On April 9, new guidelines for a "national IPR strategy" were approved by the State Council, aiming to promote innovation and enhance IPR protection.

"Before the guidelines were implemented and ahead of the World Intellectual Property Day which falls on April 26, activities held during the 'IPR protection week' would further publicize knowledge of IPR protection and enhance the public awareness of IPR protection," he said.

"China is a responsible developing country and the Chinese government takes a firm stance in protecting IPR. The achievements in China in IPR protection are obvious," Yin said at a news conference on Thursday.
