Making the fortune out of offering forged goods and then boasting about it ought to be enough
to delist the thug from foreign stock markets.

I don't see your problem. Jack Ma is just a businessman who provided a forum for businesses to sell their wares, fake or not. Are you talking about ethics here or what? Why would Jack care if people sold fake goods or not, he's never likely to get into trouble for breach of copyright. And since most western manufacturers cannot get a copyright in China, Jack has simply taken advantage of a situation than millions of other people would have done if they had the chance. TaoBao is no different.

Consumers have the right to choose what they buy and from where. If certain manufacturers weren't so greedy with their prices in the first place, (Apple?), then there would not be a market for fake goods in the first place and manufacturers of fake goods wouldn't be in business.

I've got an awesome pair of 'Nike' trainers and some excellent quality 'Levi' shirts, all for under $!0 each. Cheers Jack!
