UManila - Umkhenkethi wase-US uClaudia wayekhathazekile njengoko wayehamba ngeebhokisi kunye neebhokisi zeeDVD ezikhuselweyo zemiboniso bhanyabhanya ephezulu yaseHollywood kunye nomculo othengiswa kwindawo yokuthengisela eManila.
Exhobe ngoluhlu olude lweemuvi kunye neeDVD zomculo ezicelwe ngabahlobo bakhe eLos Angeles, uClaudia waluphonononga olo khetho kwaye wakhawuleza wakhetha ukhetho lwakhe olubandakanya iimuvi eziphumelele iOscar iSlumdog Millionaire kunye neThe Reader.
'Kufana nokubukela ikopi yokuqala,' watsho njengoko wayebukele amacandelo emiboniso bhanyabhanya awayikhetha kumdlali weDVD omncinane osetyenziselwa uvavanyo. 'Ngoku ndiyasazi isizathu sokuba abahlobo bam bandicele ukuba ndithenge iiDVD apha eManila!'
UJoel, umabhalana wezentengiso oncedisa uClaudia, uthe inani labantu basemzini abathenga iiDVD zomgunyathi eManila liyenyuka njengoko iiPhilippines zifumana umfanekiso othandabuzekayo njengowona mthombo uphezulu weeDVD ezirhwetywayo ezikumgangatho ophezulu eMzantsi-mpuma Asia.
'Mhlawumbi malunga nesinye kwisithathu seentengiso zethu zemihla ngemihla zivela kubantu basemzini, kubakhenkethi,' utshilo. 'Basoloko bendixelela ukuba iiDVD zokuqala zibiza kakhulu kumazwe abo, ngoko bathenga kangangoko bebenako apha.'
Umboniso bhanyabhanya weDVD wabiwa kwiiPhilippines uxabisa iipeso ezingama-50 (iidola ezisisi-1.06) xa kuthelekiswa needola ezili-15 ukuya kwiidola ezingama-20 kwikopi yeDVD yokuqala.
Ngaphandle kwevidiyo ephithiweyo kunye neeDVD zomculo, iiPhilippines zikwanguvimba wobutyebi bomgunyathi weempawu ezidumileyo zamazwe ngamazwe ezinje ngoGucci, uChristian Dior kunye neLacoste.
KuMichael, undwendwe lokuqala lwaseBritani, ukonga iidola ezimbalwa kunokuhamba umgama omde kula maxesha anzima.
'La ngamaxesha anzima, ngoko umgangatho olungileyo kodwa imveliso enexabiso eliphantsi isoloko ithengwa kakuhle,' watsho, encumile efihla impahla yakhe, izibuko zelanga zeGucci zomgunyathi kunye nento ebizwa ngokuba 'yiKlasi A' yewotshi yesandla yeRolex, ebhegini yakhe. , izipho zentombi kunye nodade wabo.
Abarhwebi beemveliso zomgunyathi bayaqhubeka besanda kwiiPhilippines- ngaphakathi kudederhu lweevenkile, ezindleleni, ngaphandle kweehotele, nangaphakathi kwizakhiwo zeofisi-ngaphandle kogqogqo olungapheliyo kunye nokuhlutha okwenziwa ngabasemagunyeni bakarhulumente.
I-International Intellectual Property Alliance (IIPA) esekwe eWashington yade yakhala ngelithi iiPhilippines 'ziphinde zavela ngo-2008 njengomthumeli ngaphandle kweeCD, iiDVD kunye neeCD-ROM.'
'Imveliso yengingqi yenza kuqikelelo lwe-40 ukuya kwi-50 yeepesenti zempahla enzima efunyenwe kwimarike yasekhaya kunye nabaphangi baphinde bafumene inzuzo yokuthumela ngaphandle,' i-IIPA yathi kwiNgxelo ye-2009 yoKhuseleko lwe-Copyright kunye nokunyanzeliswa.
Kodwa u-Adrian Cristobal, umlawuli jikelele we-Intellectual Property Office of the Philippines, uthe ilizwe liye lazuza umhlaba kumlo walo wokulwa nobuqhetseba, ephawula ukuba ixabiso eliqikelelwayo lempahla yobuxoki ethathiweyo ngo-2008 lenyuka nge-17.39 yeepesenti xa kuthelekiswa no-2007, kunye nenani lilonke. isixa seemveliso zomgunyathi ezathinjwa ngo-2008 kwi-3.51 yeebhiliyoni zeepesos.
I-IIPA kunye namanye amaqela achasene ne-counterfeiting, nangona kunjalo, ayichukunyiswanga ngumsebenzi wabasemagunyeni basePhilippine.
Kwiveki ephelileyo, i-IIPA yathi icele i-United States ukuba inyuse iiPhilippines ibe 'kuLuhlu lokuHlola oluPhambili' ngenxa yemeko yobuqhetseba elizweni.
'Ngokubanzi, imeko yobuqhetseba kwiiPhilippines iye yaba mandundu ngo-2008,' yatsho ingxelo ye-IIPA. 'Ukongezelela kubuqhetseba bomzimba (ii-CD, ii-DVD, ii-CD-ROMs), imarike esemthethweni yelungelo lokushicilela langaphandle kunye nelase-Philippine laye layekiswa bubusela be-Intanethi, ubuqhetseba besixhobo esiphathwayo, ubuqhetseba be-camcording, ukuthengisa ukuthengisa, ukuveliswa kweediski zamehlo kunye nobusela be-TV obuhlawulelwayo.'
Kwisoftware yeshishini kunye namashishini omculo, iinkampani zaphulukana nobuncinci i-222 yezigidi zeedola kwi-2008 kwiiPhilippines ngenxa yobuqhetseba, utshilo u-IIPA.
'Ukusetyenziswa okuxhaphakileyo kwesoftware engenalayisenisi emsebenzini ngamashishini kuqhubekile ukubangela eyona lahleko inkulu yengeniso kushishino lwesoftware ngo-2008, ngalo ndlela kudodobalisa ukukhula kwecandelo lolwazi,' yatsho.
I-IIPA iphinde yaphawula ukuba iifilimu zase-US ezirekhodwe ngokungekho mthethweni kwiiPhilippines zifumene indlela yazo kumazwe ali-13, kumazwekazi amathathu, kuquka ne-United States.
Lo mbutho ukhale ngelithi urhwaphilizo kwinkundla yakwiiPhilippines luqhwalelisa ukutshutshiswa kwabarhanelwa bobuqhetseba.
'Urhwaphilizo kwiinkundla luye lwaba yinkxalabo ekhulayo,' yatsho i-IIPA. 'Zimbalwa kuphela izigwebo zolwaphulo-mthetho kumatyala okukopisha eziye zanikezelwa kwiiPhilippines, kunye nezigwebo ezimbalwa ezithintelayo okanye izigwebo eziqhutywe ngokusebenza.'
Lo mfelandawonye wacela urhulumente wasePhilippines ukuba 'aqalise inyathelo lokuchasa urhwaphilizo ukuze aphelise ukuthotyelwa kwemithetho yengqondo yaye athabathe inyathelo lokohlwaya aboni.'
Ikwabize ugqogqo olungakumbi kunye nokutshutshiswa kolwaphulo-mthetho kwabo babandakanyeka kuzo zonke iintlobo zobuqhetseba njengabanini zitolo ezinkulu kunye nabarhwebi abathengisa iiCD neeDVD ezirhwaphiliziweyo kunye namashishini esebenzisa iinkqubo zesoftware yobuqhetseba.
