Title A name given to the resource Vol. 6, no. 4 (10).pdf PDF Text Text I -from page 9 this provision, a foreign company files a patent application and takes hold of the Brazilian market for the benefit of its headquarters abroad, doing away with competition." In practice, it means the end of all development possibilities available to the domestic drug industry. What the Brazilian government is trying to do is precisely the opposite of what countries of the first world do, as they only recognize patents after qualifying their industries technologically and after providing them with adequate means of protection. The Indian peoples are surely being affected by this fight of giants, as the genetic bases located in their lands- particularly the ones located in Amazoniaare of fundamental importance to transnational drug The Demini region, served by a CCPY health team, has been one of the two loost affected by the departure of the FNS health workers, the other being Catrimani. Still, Dr. Deise Francisco, coordinator of the health team, reported that there are 12 new cases of malaria out of a population of 90 Yc:momami at the Demini Indian post, after months with no new cases. Mosquito breeding grounds in the area were identified by FNS entomologists but were not eradicated because of the shortage equipment and personnel. Source: Commission for lhe Ycmomami Park companies. To these peoples, the approval of the bill proposed by the Executive branch would mean the handing over of their knowledge on biodiversity to large cartels, which would save years of research and investment in the process. This is something that is already happening in other countries and represents one of the main goals of today's international economic policy. Countries such as the United States do not spare any efforts to make Third World countries adjust their patent laws to the needs of emerging transnational monopolies. For centuries Indian peoples have developed and preserved the knowledge they have on their natural resources, which are to be protected instead of becoming objects of patent protection or private appropriation. These peoples must be supported if they are to continue to preserve their knowledge and biodiversity, so that they may develop sustainable projects that can bring improvements to the quality of life of their communities without forcing them to destroy natural resources in order to survive. There are also peoples whose territories have been degraded as a result of the economic expropriation process. These areas must be recovered so that the quality of life of the communities which occupy them may be improved. This is a reality affecting Indian lands located in the Northeast, South, East and Center-West regions of Brazil. Together with steps aimed at protecting their biodiversity and knowledge, measures must be taken to ensure respect for the ethnic diversity of Indian peoples. Governments and the non-Indian society have traditionally despised the Indian logic in their handling of ecosystems. And this was the logic that ensured the self-sustainable nature of these societies and the preservation of the environment The private appropriation of these resources and know ledge, as provided for in the Bill on Industrial property, represents a blow against the interests of Indian peoples.
