This publication is the result of a WIPO study on the effective use of intellectual property in ASEAN countries. The project was implemented by the WIPO Japan Office (WJO), with funding provided from the Japan Patent Office under the auspices of the Japan Funds-In-Trust. Research and drafting of the text was carried out by Jonah Asher and John Amari at the WJO.
The project was coordinated, within WIPO, by Ken-Ichiro Natsume and Masaki Okamoto, who supervised the publication; managed the process through its various stages; and interacted closely with the JPO, the ASEAN Secretariat, and the Asia-Pacific Bureau at WIPO headquarters.
