The IP Dragon has two worthwhile papers:
(1) Hong Kong is a Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic. What does that mean for protecting your IP? here (and here)
(2) China’s National IP strategy 2008 here.
He also has a link to an interesting paper on your IP strategy in China – most experience suggests you need to get on the ground where your outsourcing is taking place.
Meanwhile, IPKat looks at the problem of bad faith trade mark registrations in China – Phony Sony anyone?
