In the absence of international rules governing parallel imports
and exhaustion of intellectual property rights, issues arising in
this context are left to the individual countries concerned. Asian
countries, although generally more open towards parallel imports
than Europe or the U.S., show marked differences both among their
individual approaches and among the various intellectual property
rights in question. Increasingly, permitting or blocking parallel
imports of intellectually protected goods is regarded as a
political decision to accommodate foreign pressure, domestic
consumers, or right holders. Due to the diversity of legal regimes
in the jurisdictions covered, reliable information on the regimes
of parallel imports in Asia has been hard to come by. Now, Parallel
Imports in Asia brings together the insight and experience of
fourteen academics and practitioners in this specialized but highly
significant field, each highly respected in his or her particular
country. Two concise introductory chapters clearly present the
economic and legal foundations of the subject matter. Then,
thirteen chapters offer indepth analysis of exhaustion of
intellectual property rights and parallel imports for each of
twelve Asian jurisdictions-China, Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Vietnam,
Thailand, Indonesia, The Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore, Hong
Kong, and India-plus the Australasian bloc. With this book,
businesses in all of these countries-and in particular India and
the Australasian countries-can assess the strength of their IP
rights against parallel importation in other parts of Asia. All
country reports are written in a uniform structure and take into
account legal, political and economicconsiderations with respect to
the parallel importation of patented, trademarked and copyrighted
goods. A useful appendix provides a synoptically overview on the
rules of parallel importation in Asia. While academics will find
here a thought-provoking survey of an important but relatively
unstudied area of intellectual property law, Parallel Imports in
Asia will prove to be of greatest value to potential investors in
Asia, particularly with regard to market separation and licensing
agreements. It will also help practicing lawyers for globally
operating companies to appropriately counsel their clients in this
area of business decision making.
