| This volume examines the concerns of developing countries of the Asia-Pacific region about different aspects of the implementation of the World Trade Organization (WTO) agreement, particularly matters relating to agriculture, textiles and clothing, and services. The papers review the implementation of multilateral agreements under the Uruguay Round; the built-in agenda for further liberalization in selected product areas and services; trade and the environment; new issues of investment and competition policy; and the linkage of international trade to social issues, including trade and gender.
The publication contains papers presented at the senior officials meeting, held in Jakarta, Indonesia, from 4 to 6 September 1996, to assist the developing countries of the region in their preparation for the first WTO Ministerial Conference. It was organized by ESCAP in collaboration with UNCTAD and UNDP. |
