Pyongyang, April 26 (KCNA) -- The DPRK government will as ever increase its efforts to protect the intellectual property and develop it in cooperation with the World Intellectual Property Organization. Minju Joson Sunday says this in a signed article dedicated to the "World Intellectual Property Day". It continues: The 35th General Assembly of WIPO held in 2000 set April 26 as the "World Intellectual Property Day." This day is marked with diverse events every year. The organization set it as its main duty for this year to conduct the work for invention and creation in the environmental field including the issue of decreasing the emission of carbon dioxide. The rapid development of the society resulting from the growth of the information industry and intellectual economy essentially requires the legal protection of human intellectual creations.
