Singapore fares well, in tier 2 at 12th place. It
does especially well for copyright protection, but is marked down for tough new rules on
data protection. Upcoming patent examination improvements could help Singapore
move up the ranks.
Thailand appeared for the first time, at 26th. Cited positives were
the DIP's activities, copyright regime modernization, the introduction of
Madrid and the ability to challenge patent validity.
Indonesia appeared in its first showing, in 34th place in the 5th
tier, cited as an important market but one where insufficient enforcement
hampered progress. Few details were provided.
IP Komodo observes that these seem reasonably accurate conclusions.
