Bangkok Trader Visits Museum of Counterfeit Goods

Bangkok Trader

Bangkok Trader, an English-language general interest and lifestyle magazine in Thailand, has published an article describing the Tilleke & Gibbins Museum of Counterfeit Goods. Journalist Dave Stamboulis interviewed Suebsiri Taweepon of the Tilleke & Gibbins IP group about the museum and its collection.

“The Museum of Counterfeit Goods is most insightful as to the width and depth of the copied products and trademarks industry here,” the article states. “It is quite an eye-opener to see just how pervasive the industry is, ranging from rebottled shampoo products to knockoff products like drinks, snacks, or cigarettes that bear a logo created to look like a famous name brand.”
