The City

Patents and free trade make strange bedfellows. For most of their history, patents have been instruments deployed to resist trade with other countries, not to enhance it. Whether one looks at Venetian laws that punished citizens who practiced local crafts outside the city, the Mercantilist uses to which patents were put in Elizabethan England, or the cartels of the 19th and 20th centuries created on a foundation of interlocking patent rights, patents have had a distinctly protectionist function. It is thus ironic that it is intellectual property rights in general, and patents in particular, that have been held up in recent years as the poster child of much that is wrong with globalization and free trade. Nowhere is this more so than in debates concerning international human rights law and patents, in particular the position that patents violate an international right to health.

The rejection from Myanmar over the United Nation humanitarian aids leads to unnecessary suffering for Rohingya in Myanmar. The rejection are not only for the foods but all kind of aids from the United Nation. The aid rejection violates a number of human rights such as right to life, right to food, and right to health. Although the Myanmar government could decline aids under their rights of sovereignty state, the state must first give sufficient aids to Rohingya. The state could not just cut or decline the humanitarian aids if the state is unwilling and unable to provide the humanitarian aids to the citizen. This paper investigates whether those actions of the Myanmar Government violates the human rights of Rohinya by analyzing the international human rights law instrument with the fact.
