11-{)1!/7'i THE TRUMP ORGANIZATION 'February 7, 2011 Mr. Gary Locke U.S. Commerce Secretary U.S. Department of Commerce 1401 Constitution Avenue NW ' Washington, D.C. 20230 Dear Mr. Locke, lrecently saw you on CNBC and respectfully disagree with your statements regarding China and their improving intellectual property rights. In fairness, I am,not certain whether their intellectual property rights are anybetter,than their human rights or, for that matter, ~he manipulation of their currency. For many years I have heard that thc'Court and political systems of China, and those of Macao, are totally corrupt. I spent hundreds of thousands of dollars in, legal fees to secure my own naine aild' glribally recognized brand from Chinese individuals who seekJo trade off of my:reputation. As an example, in Mac!lo,the Courts denied me the exclusive rights to my own name: Despite more than a year of waiting,the Court determined that the illegal use of my in:terluttionally recognized name does not breach the truth; pr~nciple applied by. the Court. T'he'()¢Cisionalso determined that neither I nor'nly:"company name is well known in China or Ma~ao,'despite having had books that became :best selle,rs ,and The Apprentice televiSion show,which was, big in China. I then sent to Macao' in May, i009 a, tea~ of Trump employees, inCluding my son, to defend my worDd i'enown~d name, a name' which is protected iIi every ,other major country With them came 300 Ibs. of paper whicb included articles written: about me, magazine covers featuring me, books, videos and more spanning a period of a' decade. The fact that the Court could produce such a ludicrous result is a clear i~.~i¢~ti~l!that their en,tire system is faithless~corrupt and tainted. Who could expectanything'different from deceitful cul~urewberethey send underage children, to the Olympics to C6inpeteand, when caught.. claim they were completely unaware? Their 'behavior Should be,a ,clear warning to the rest of the world to refrain ftomany trade practice or business : relationship withthem~ Instead. oui' President throws out the red carpet (which they couldn't even get strdight) for thcChihese'President and deiegati.on ..... a totill disgrace as thc
