The counterfeiting of electronic components continues to rise despite increased efforts at corporate and governmental levels to fight the crime and is threatening the health of the industry supply chain, according to the U.S. Bureau of Industry and Security.

Incidents of parts counterfeiting reported by component suppliers, including companies in the semiconductor sector, shot up "dramatically" to 9,356 in 2008, up about 142 percent, from 3,868 in 2005, according to the Bureau, which said China, Taiwan, the Philippines, Malaysia and India were identified as the primary sources of counterfeit products by suppliers surveyed recently.

俺以为假冒伪劣只在中国横向呢，原来他们也受冲击了，哈哈

有点幸灾乐祸的意思，但也看到了一点希望。打假也许还得靠洋大人啊，就像人quan一样
