Business Software Alliance (BSA), in collaboration with the Ministry of Information, ended an anti-software piracy road show at the Sheraton Hotel Bahrain, as part of a region-wide initiative to create public awareness of intellectual property rights issues.

The road show also sought to show support and help fortify Bahrain's anti-piracy strategy for 2008. "The government of Bahrain is committed to protecting the interest of the IT sector. It is our aim to intensify our campaign especially given the fact that Bahrain has the highest ICT (Information and Communications Technology) adoption rate in the Arab world. We greatly appreciate the efforts of Business Software Alliance in helping us strengthen and develop our anti-piracy strategy for the coming year," said Ministry of Information director of publication Jamal Dawood, pictured above.
