Maya Alexandri on IPR in China

IPR issues in China are often discussed in terms of politics, focusing on why China's IPR laws are not enforced. Less often does the discussion steer to what companies should actually do in practice while operating in such an IPR environment.

Maya Alexandri, who writes for Danwei on IPR issues and teaches IPR as a visiting professor at Tsinghua University, talks briefly about IPR-related policies at foreign companies coming into China. She then shares lessons from her experience litigating Educational Testing Service's case against China's well known test prep company, New Oriental.

Comments on China Businesscast: China's New Oriental and ETS, a classic IPR case study

As a matter of style I would suggest that you write out 'intellectual property rights' in full before abbreviating it. I had to do a quick google to find out what IPR stands for.

i am new in Danwei, and it is very good. But i havenot understand it totally, so i wonder if i can get the writing out english version of this interview.
thank you
