Alibaba founder billionaire Jack Ma wants China to crack down on counterfeiters ? even throwing them in jail.
"The majority of counterfeiters are not held legally responsible for their actions," wrote Ma in a statement to China`s parliamentary delegates.
Ma`s appeal seeks harsher laws to fight fake goods, and comes as China`s annual parliamentary meetings take place in Beijing.
But last December, Alibaba landed back on the U.S. "notorious markets" list ? a global name-and-shame of worst offenders dealing in counterfeits.
Ma himself has called counterfeits a "cancer" to his company, and consistently emphasizes Alibaba`s efforts to clean up fakes by taking down listings and banning sellers.
