This was the largest intellectual property infringement case discovered in Vietnam so far in this year.
In 2019, the authorities were able to handle major cases of smuggling and selling of counterfeit products, a fact that was not possible in the past.
Many websites selling fake goods are hosted abroad, while Vietnam still lacks legal instruments to address rampant unfair competition and trade fraud activities in the cyber space.
