Mr. Erik Valdes-Martines, Secretary General of VOIS, visited CPRA on May 27th.

We introduced our organizational structure and outline of collection and distribution in Japan.

In Russia, the accredited system introduced in 2010 works well, and RAO manages author's rights, on the other hand VOIS manages neighboring rights. Concluded the bilateral agreement in 2009, VOIS and CPRA have a good relationship with equitable collection and distribution.

It was a great opportunity to deepen mutual understandings and productive collaboration between VOIS and CPRA.
