The World Trade Organisation (WTO) is the only international
organisation
dealing with multi-laterally agreed rules on trade among its
member
countries. Through the WTO agreements, which spell out their
rights
and obligations, Member countries operate a non-discriminatory
trading
system that has allowed world trade to grow. The goal is to
help
producers of goods and services, exporters and importers
conduct
their business in a manner that ensures predictability and
stability.
The WTO is also a forum for continuous negotiations to create a
more
transparent, predictable, fair and liberal global trading
environment.
Negotiations are aimed at progressively removing barriers to
trade in
order to create better market access opportunities for its
Members.
WTO rules are evolving through periodical review of existing
rules
and negotiations on new rules.
T
he WTO was established on
January 1, 1995 and replaced
the General Agreement on
Tariffs and Trade (GATT) following
conclusion of the Uruguay Round
(UR) of trade negotiations in 1994.

While the GATT established rules for
trade in goods, the WTO encompasses
other trade-related areas such as
services and intellectual property
rights (IPR). Malaysia is a founding
member of the WTO by virtue of
its membership in the GATT since
1957.
WTO provides benefits to its members
through the establishment of an
international trading environment
which is transparent and predictable.
These benefits are secured through
the implementation of members
obligations in the form of trade
rules and market access negotiated
on a multi-lateral basis. As a major
trading nation, transparency and
predictabi l ity in trade rules are
important to Malaysia.
Malaysia is able to comply with WTO
obligations as it has:
Adhered to multi-lateral trading
rules as a member in the GATT;
Continuously been undertaking

v o l u n t a r y r e d u c t i o n a n d
elimination of tariffs to enhance
Malaysias competitiveness; and
Adopted open and transparent
trade policies and measures over
the years
The Ministerial Conference which
is held at least once every two
years is the supreme body of the
WTO. It comprises representatives
of all members and functions to
oversee the implementation of
Members obligations as well as the
negotiations of new agreements. The
day-to-day business of the WTO is
conducted by the General Council
which comprises representatives
of all members to the WTO who
are usually at Ambassadorial level
or the equivalent. It has authority
to act on behalf of the Ministerial
Conference and oversees operations
of agreements and minister ial
decisions. This includes functioning
as a body to settle trade disputes

between members and as a forum
for members to examine each others
trade policies. The General Council
also oversees matters relating to
trade in goods and services as well
as trade-related aspects of IPR.
WTO Principles
n Most-Favoured-Nation (MFN)
Treatment
MFN Treatment is the principle
of non-di s c r iminat ion among
Members, requiring all members
to be treated equally. There are
however, some exceptions to this
principle. For instance, preferential
duties are allowed for members of
regional trading arrangements or
preferential schemes such as the
Generalized System of Preferences
