The international standards of Custom control were established under Section 4 (Article 51-Article 61) of the enforcement of Intellectual Property rights "Special Requirement Related to Border Measures" of TRIPs Agreement, as one of the mosl important enforcement provisions for combating counterfeiting. Nationally, Section 70(D) and 70(0) of the Malaysian Trademark Act 1976 are somehow similar to section 89(2) of the United Kingdom Trademark Act 1994 the enforcement in the United Kingdom has been effectively enforced as compared to Malaysia.
