1. Welcome speech
Mr. Chairman,
Ladies and gentlemen, distinguished guests,
It is my great honor to declare the commencement of Beijing International Conference on Intellectual Property Rights. On behalf of the Chinese Government and people, and in my own name, I would like to extend my warm welcome to all the delegates and guests. I would also like to express my congratulations on the successful opening of the conference in Beijing. I wish to thank all the members of the organizing committee for their hard work, which has made this conference possible.
The violation of intellectual property rights has become a serious problem facing the world today. Every year, for example, the computer software industry throughout the world suffers a heavy financial loss from worldwide reckless piracy, a loss that consequently compels the programmers and the manufacturers of the published software to raise the retail prices, thus shifting part of their loss to honest users.
The protection of intellectual property rights has become a growing concern among all the nations of the international community. The participating countries at this conference have expressed their hope for joint efforts to wage a war against the violation of the copyrighted property and stop the wicked spread of piracy. I am convinced that this conference will reach an agreement on the protection of intellectual property rights.
I wish the conference a complete success! Thank you very much.
2. Closing Speech
Ladies and Gentlemen
Dear Colleagues
Thanks to the joint efforts and contribution from all participants, the Second General Conference of EASTICA is going to be closed successfully.
In the past two days, we discussed the future activities of EASTICA, elected new members of the Executive Board, adopted the Resolution and decided the dates and place of the Third General Conference of EASTICA. We have reached agreements on all of these issues, which will be of great significance to EASTICA and to the future archival work of East Asia. Just as Charles KECSKEMETI said in his opening speech that the old Asia is at the time of dynamic economic development. Archival work should keep pace with this new situation and to meet the challenge.
Taking this opportunity, I would like also to express thanks to William Wallach from the Bentley Historical Library of Michigan University and Qiu Xiaowei from the Central Archives of China for their excellent presentation on computer application in archives. I believe, these lectures are of great reference to computerization of archives management in East Asia.
Here, on behalf of the organizing Committee of the XIIIth International Congress on Archives, I would like to invite all of you to come to Beijing to attend this conference. I hope to see you all next September in Beijing. On behalf of EASTICA, once again, I would like to express our gratitude to Macao Cultural Institute, to Maria Helena Lima Evora, Director of Macao Historical Archives and her colleagues for their hospitality and very delicate arrangement of this meeting.
Now, I declare the closing of the Second General Conference of EASTICA. Thank you.
