EU's report on counterfeit goods simply reveals its bias

A 74-PAGE REPORT by Europe's police agency and the EU Intelligence Property Office claims the Chinese mainland and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region "were the provenance of 86 percent of global counterfeiting and $396.5 billion worth of counterfeit goods" in 2015. People's Daily comments:

In the past two months, China's C919 passenger plane successfully completed its first trial flight; its first high-speed train, with intellectual property rights completely belonging to China, has been put into operation between Beijing and Shanghai; and the first of a new type of destroyer was successfully launched in Shanghai.

These achievements, though nothing new for developed countries, are milestones in the development of the high-end manufacturing industry in China.
