China's & online piracy

China's piracy: not just cheap goods; movies, publishing and software too...

In the article below "Chinese Government promises to help fight online piracy" the author claims that "Piracy rate of software in China reached 86 percent last year and resulted in more than three billion dollars in losses by 2005"

Can this realistically be done and do they have an interest in stopping it?

Probably not until they have their own software companies losing big dollars to piracy.
