Have you ever pondered the enchanting allure of Darjeeling tea or the captivating fragrance of Thai jasmine rice? The answer lies in a concept known as Geographical Indications (GIs). GIs serve as distinguished hallmarks for products whose essence, reputation, and distinctive attributes are inextricably intertwined with the regions from which they hail. Under the umbrella of GIs, these products receive legal protection against imitations, ensuring that consumers receive genuine, high-quality treasures originating from specific locales.Free Trade Agreements (FTA) play a crucial role in protecting GIs. This book offers a comprehensive analysis of the inclusion of GIs in FTAs signed by Asian countries, examining the unique challenges and opportunities they face, and insights into the impact of GI protection on local economies, agriculture, and artisanal industries. It serves as a vital resource for policymakers, trade negotiators, academics, and anyone interested in the intricate world of Geographical Indications within the context of Free Trade Agreements in Asia.
