F TECHNICAL COOPERATION
37. The representative of Japan said that the scheme proposed in the joint non-paper might be of assistance in the notification of Members' national legislation. This kind of technical assistance among Members could be most meaningful as need-oriented assistance, particularly in the field of registration activities. Japan had been providing technical assistance with a primary focus on the operational aspects of intellectual property systems, such as human resource development and computerization of intellectual property administrations, mainly through contribution of voluntary funds to WIPO. His delegation reiterated that it would continue to provide assistance to least developed countries as well as developing country Members, as it believed that it was important for developed country Members to make various efforts which could be complementary and function as a whole so that meaningful technical assistance could be achieved.
