Drafting the Genetic Resource Act of Taiwan
From the nineteen sixties onward, more and more governmental institutions
and biotech companies of developed countries put their effort on exploring
genetic resources, mostly in developing or underdeveloped countries. They
invest huge capitals to collect genetic resources for the screening of potential
chemicals. These activities are often known as bio-prospecting. In fact,
genetic resources may be utilized in all respects of human lives, especially in
the sectors of agriculture and pharmaceutical. However, once the resources
poor but technology advanced countries were able to make invention from genetic materials they acquired form the south countries, frequently they would
ensure their rights of the invention, or sometimes even on these genetic
resources by intellectual property rights, which has been called “biopiracy”, a
phrase coined by NGOs and southern countries. South-North conflict on
genetic resources has been since a hot issue in various international fora
