Thailand Accused of Patent Rip-Offs

Here's an interesting article on how some folks are up in arms over Thailand's plan to manufacturer their own Generic drugs thereby making health care more affordable for more people.
IMO it's a good decision.

Quote:Even worse, U.S. lawmakers are piling on. Last month, 22 members of Congress signed a letter to the U.S. trade representative expressing their support for the Thai government's renegade action

There's even some US lawmakers that are supporting the Thai Govt on this issue.

RE: Thailand Accused of Patent Rip-Offs

Manufacturing life-saving generic drugs without licences can certainly be condoned although not fully justified. Having such a bad reputation with copying whatever is in reach and thus competing with (more or less) honest people does not make it easy to discuss and strive for understanding opponents that have been cheated time and time again.
