ANGKOR is sufficiently similar to ANCHOR in visual and aural impression and will be used on goods that are the same or competitive substitutes (notably non‑dairy creamer versus dairy products); a substantial number of consumers in the relevant market will be confused or deceived; registration therefore breaches Trade Marks Act 2002 ss25(1)(b), 25(1)(c) and s17(1)(a) and must be refused.
