The joining of Vietnam into the World Trade Organisation (WTO) is attracting great attention from the local people as well as WTO members. For Vietnam, admission to WTO manifests the country’s integration into the world economy and the international market. However, along with opportunities, there are challenges for Vietnam in its joining the global trade organisation.
WTO was established in 1995. Currently the organisation has 148 member countries and tens of others are applying for being granted membership status.
Vietnam joins the WTO to avoid being solitary in the business world. It is in conformity with the current trend of international trade and Vietnam’s interests of national construction and economic development.
Thanks to the removal of tariff barriers and quotas, Vietnam can have access to latest technological advances for national modernisation and industrialisation.
