YRTELNO 496: WIPO REGIONAL FORUM IN KOREA: INVITATION TO HONG
KONG
1. AT THE INVITATION OF WIPO, HONG KONG CUSTOMS OFFICIALS ATTENDED PAST WIPO FORUM AS EXPERT LECTURER/SPEAKER, AND NOT AS AN OFFICIAL REPRESENTATIVE OF THE HONG KONG GOVERNMENT. FOR EXAMPLE A CUSTOMS OFFICIAL ATTENDED THE WIPO WORKSHOP ON COPYRIGHT IN JUNE 1986 IN KUALA LUMPUR.
2. WE THEREFORE SEE NO PROBLEM ACCEPTING THIS INVITATION. THE CUSTOMS OFFICIAL WE PROPOSE TO NOMINATE WOULD BE THE HEAD OF THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INVESTIGATION BUREAU AND HE WOULD ATTEND AS AN EXPERT IN HIS OWN RIGHT. HIS SPEECH WOULD OF COURSE BE BASED ON THE HONG KONG EXPERIENCE.
3. FOR YOUR INFORMATION, THE ATTENDANCE OF OUR DIRECTOR OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AT THE PHUKET WIPO ROUND TABLE WENT VERY WELL. THE CHINESE DELEGATION MAINTAINED A CORDIAL RELATIONSHIP WITH HER.
