NOVEMBER 2019

MYANMAR: TRADEMARK REGISTRATIONS NOW POSSIBLE

Up until now, trademark protection in Myanmar was limited to common law protection resulting from recording a Declaration of Ownership at the Office of Registration of Deeds, and publications of Cautionary Notices in local newspapers. However, beginning at the end of December, the Trademark Office of Myanmar will begin accepting trademark applications.

Initially, the Trademark Office will only accept applications from those with currently recorded Declarations of Ownership. This will allow existing owners to ensure their rights are given priority of protection over newcomers to the system. Existing registrants will need to re-file by submitting a Power of Attorney as well as the relevant application forms. The Power of Attorney will need to be legalized by the Consulate of Myanmar. Registrations will be valid for terms of ten years, with renewals available for additional ten-year terms.

Whether you are a current trademark owner or new to doing business in Myanmar, we strongly suggest filing a trademark application for your mark as soon as possible after the December launch.

BRAZIL AND MALAYSIA JOIN THE MADRID PROTOCOL

It is now possible to extend an International Trademark Registration to Brazil as of October 2, 2019.

Additionally, Malaysia will join the Madrid System as of December 27, 2019, which now covers 122 countries.

Protection of your trademark registration through the Madrid System is a cost-effective way to ensure your valuable IP rights are protected across the globe.

As of June 17, 2019, trademark owners can file an application to extend their rights to Canada, in addition to the other 120 countries which are covered by the Madrid System.

Coming Soon to the Madrid Protocol…Brazil and Malaysia!

CHINA: NEW AMENDMENTS TO TRADEMARK LAW PROVIDE BETTER PROTECTION FOR BRAND OWNERS

China has recently made changes to its Trademark Law which provide brand owners more protection. With effect from November 1, 2019, China will no longer allow the registration of trademarks filed in bad faith by those with no actual intent to use the marks. Until now, it has been possible for a third party to register a trademark and hold onto it for the sole purpose of selling it to the actual brand owner at a high price. The new changes to the law also increase the amount of punitive damages awarded in cases involving bad faith or other serious circumstances.

While the changes to the law do provide increased protection to brand owners, it is always highly advisable to register your mark in China, in both the original language as well as for the Chinese language version. It is not uncommon for unscrupulous individuals to register the Chinese language version of a mark, and hold the registration hostage until the true brand owner agrees to purchase the registration at a very high price. In addition to registering their trademarks, brand owners would be wise to record their trademarks with Customs. Upon recordal of the registration with Customs, officials will have the ability to notify brand owners of any suspected infringing or counterfeit goods, as well as to detain those goods during the investigation into the alleged infringement.

If you are interested in international trademark protection in China or any other jurisdiction, please contact us at dstewart@gtilaw.com, and we can provide you with any information and fixed fee quotations you need to move forward in protecting your valuable intellectual property rights.

Bible Resources Needs Your Help!

Dear Friend,

Greetings from BibleResources.org and from me, Pastor William Mark Bristow.  Of course you know Pastors Bud and Betty Miller and I’ve been a friend of them for over forty years and I have served on their Board of Directors for many years. Some of my articles are in the “Bible Questions and Answers” section of the BibleResources.org website. (Also, please see “About Us” on the website.) I consider them mentors, friends, even a spiritual “mom and dad.”

When we first met, one striking feature of those early Bible Study Meetings they held, was they often did not take an offering.  They simply prayed and believed the Lord to bring what was needed.  Many years ago, the three of us were ministering across north India and Nepal.  We had generously, but perhaps foolishly, given away most of our money to ministries there, and found ourselves with not enough money for the last three days of lodging, food, and the airport tax. (Those were the days when we did not have credit cards.) We prayed.  Minutes before our lodging required payment a man came to my room.  He handed me an envelope, thanked us for our ministry, and walked away.  His offering was the equivalent of $500 US dollars (about a year’s salary for many in India at that time.)  I have seen God’s supply many times since then because of the teaching Betty & Bud instilled in me.  Yet, there were times in scripture when God instructed that the need be made known.  Moses was instructed by God to speak to the people of the resources needed to build the Tabernacle (the tent where the Lord’s presence dwelt with Israel).

“Take ye from among you an offering unto the Lord: whosoever is of a willing heart, let him bring it, an offering of the LORD …” Exodus 35:5.  The people had such a heart to give that in chapter 36, Moses had to restrain their giving — there was more than enough!

I believe the Lord has spoken to me to make the need known.  BibleResources.org is a small ministry with a large outreach.  The site receives over 500,000 page views per month and has around 100,000 unique visitors each month. Lives are being changed daily through this ministry outreach.

Little mention of what it takes to operate the site is made, other than a few invitations to donate if the site has blessed you.  Right now, about $5,000 is needed for work on the website, another $10,000 in utilities, website regular operation expense, and office operation.  We would love to re-hire a previous employee who would oversee the bookkeeping and much of the office work, so Betty would be free to write and edit, bringing more wonderful teaching to the site.  That would require an additional $2,000 a month.

These are the immediate needs.  If you have a willing heart, I’m inviting you to give.  Join with us in reaching out to so many. Donate to: Christ Unlimited Ministries/BibleResources.org

Here are just two excerpts from the many thousands of responses BibleResources.org receives.

Hi Betty,
My name is Thomas K. I have been on BibleResources.org every day for almost 2 years now. I purchased your daily devotional and started a Thursday morning men’s study based on those teachings. The work of God’s spirit has proven nothing short of “Amazing” in the lives of my brothers and I. I’m so grateful to have found BibleResources.org. God delivered and healed me from a 23 year IV drug addiction and a deadly blood disease. I’m free and staying that way. In Christ’s Love.

Hi. My name is Kenneth. I was feeling suicidal thoughts today, like JOB and many other disciples…
I couldn’t tell my wife of 17 years. So when she went to her room, I texted her about my Suicidal thoughts. I was severely depressed at the moment. She came over and prayed with me and the prayers were similar to your awesome article. I just wanted to say thank you. I would’ve never found your article if it weren’t for God giving me strength to do some research on how God feels about suicide and depression. I will keep you both and website under key and lock. Thank you so much! God bless!

Would you prayerfully consider helping us to continue to reach out and touch people?  So many are desperately hurting, searching for help and answers. Some might want to give, but you don’t have the means at the moment — then you help us pray it in.

“The Lord bless you and keep you; The Lord make His face shine upon you, And be gracious to you; The Lord [a]lift up His countenance upon you, And give you peace.” (Numbers 6:24-26 NKJV)
