Talk about blatant…a blog post discusses the consequences of this type of open piracy. Although they appear to have taken some steps to take some of the materials down, it will continue for as long as they can get away with it.

I don’t agree with the argument that because you cannot afford it you wouldn’t buy it anyway, it’s a common defense for people profiting from piracy but this is very different, it’s Government Piracy! If the Government doesn’t get it, how can we educate the people? Lead by example….hello? Show the world that China is an advanced society respecting copyright and trademark….hello? HELLO? ANYBODY THINKING OUT THERE? A greedy entrepeneur….or opportunist businessman is what I expect to see but our own Government??

The Government is ripping off Hello Kitty, Mickey Mouse, Winnie the Pooh and Doraemon plus a host of many others?

This isn’t about rich pharma companies trying to rip off poor people here who need medical aid and therefore need to get access, this is about the Government stealing for the pure purpose of generating a handsome profit at someone else’s expense. Today it may be “foreigners”, tomorrow it will be our own people.

How could you be soooooo stupid to bring us such national shame?
