NEW WORLD ECONOMIC ORDER AND WTO"S FUTURE CHALLENGES

As a result of the seven-year-long Uruguay Round of multilateral trade negotiations, the agreement establishing the World Trade Organization (WTO) entered into force on 1 January 1995. The establishment of the WTO was a significant event in the modem history of the multilateral trading system. With the creation of the WTO, it is hoped that it can reverse the erosion of the world trading environment and effectively deal with rapid changes in the global economy. Since its inception three years ago, the WTO has made substantial progress in implementing and administering trade agreements and in settling disputes among member countries. At the same time, the WTO continues to expand its membership and to pursue negotiations on specific service sectors extended from the Uruguay Round. Futhermore, the successful conclusion of the two Ministerial Conferences has provided a well-defined road map for continuing liberalization of trade and a broadening work program to keep the WTO up to date with a fast-changing world economy. With a wider scope and strengthened institutional setup, the WTO system is performing well. However, there still persists some skepticism regarding the ability of the WTO to address the challenges facing the world economy. At the same time inward-looking regionalism and protectionist movements will continue to progress in some way, undermining the stability of the new world economic order. This is an inevitable fact of the world trading environment. But the nature of these challenges can be greatly influenced by the status of the multilateral trading system. As long as member countries maintain a strong and effective multilateral trading system with the dynamic momentum of trade liberalization, proliferating regionalism will be countered. It is a little bit too early to judge for sure how successful the new multilateral trading system will perform. But there are already some positive signs. Member countries are turning increasingly to the WTO to resolve trade disputes and a long list of countries are actively seeking membership in the WTO. More importantly, the two Ministerial Conferences broadened the trade agenda and gave strong impetus to further liberalization. The future success of the multilateral trading system lies in all member countries" strong commitment to maintain an open trade regime and to firmly resist any domestic pressures aimed at going back to old practices of protectionism

EXPORT POLICY DIRECTIONS FOR POST-FINANCIAL CRISIS ERA

Since November 1997 when the financial crisis erupted in Korea, the government has recognized and emphasized the importance of export enhancement as one of the most basic solution to the current economic turmoil. However, in 1998 exports recorded a 2.2% decline due mainly to the decreased world demand caused by the economic turmoil in Asia. The analysis of this disappointing export performance reveals various limitations of Korea"s export structure especially in terms of its concentrated product mix and overall low competitiveness. The export-led economic development strategy adopted by Korea since the 1960s was implemented on the basis of close government-business relationship. Powerful and interventionist government led the economy to grow at accelerated pace through various industrial policy measures. Businesses, in tum, failed to acquire the needed competitiveness. As a result, despite the remarkable growth of Korean export over the years, it has also become uncompetitive in the world market. In formulating trade policy, the government must break away from the past practices and adopt a drastically different position. Beginning with the elimination all regulatory barriers that are preventing Korea"s competitive products to be exported abroad, the policy priority should be given to create an environment under which domestic industries can develop into world-class manufacturers. The businesses, on the other hand, must make an effort to identify changing world market environment and work to enhance their genuine competitiveness
