SEN. Mark Villar, chairman of the Committee on Trade, Commerce and Entrepreneurship, has raised concern over the significant increase in counterfeiting and piracy activities during the lockdown, leaving local video producers, distributors and aggregators at the losing end.

During the April 30 hearing, various proposals to amend the Intellectual Property Code of the Philippines (IPCP) were discussed.
