MALL TO EVICT TENANTS CONVICTED OF PIRACY

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 18 (Bernama) -- Plaza Low Yat will evict tenants convicted of
piracy in support of the government's anti-piracy initiatives.

Its general manager of property management and operations, Michael Lee, said the
proactive step would complement the Ministry of Domestic Trade, Cooperative and
Consumerism's Anti-Piracy Campaign launched in May last year.

"This initiative is putting action to our commitment of being a 100 per cent
genuine information technology (IT) mall.

"We are glad of the support from the ministry as well as software giant such as
Microsoft," he said at the announcement to continue its partnership with
Microsoft to fight piracy here Monday.

Lee said even though Plaza Low Yat was the first IT mall in the country to have
such an initiative, he hoped it won't be the last.

"We are calling on all malls in Malaysia to join us in this fight against
piracy," he said.

General manager of original equipment manufacturers, Microsoft Malaysia, Low Sin
Yip, said based on International Data Corp research, the value of the piracy
market in Malaysia was worth US$453 million per year.
