VIETNAM
GENEVA (Reuters) - Communist Vietnam, one of the world's fastest growing economies, won formal approval from the World Trade Organization (WTO) on Tuesday, November 07th, 2006 to become its 150th member by the end of the year.
The executive General Council approved a deal struck late last month by the WTO's working party on Vietnam's accession, a formality because the working party is open to all WTO states with an interest in the negotiation.
Vietnam, a country of 82 million people, will officially become part of the WTO, which sets the rules for global trade, 30 days after its National Assembly ratifies the accession accords.
"It is done, they have been accepted," said a WTO spokesman after the request was gaveled through at a closed-door session of the Council.
Vietnam, a major exporter of textiles, seafood, coffee and furniture, had been negotiating to join the 149-state WTO for 12 years while its once state-controlled economy has undergone sweeping reform.
Although its economy is relatively small, with gross domestic product of $61 billion this year, it is the latest of Asia's economic success stories.
Estimated economic growth was 8.2 percent in 2006, labor is cheap and Vietnam is the darling of the foreign aid and investment communities.
Its average economic growth of 7.4 percent over the past five years is higher than any other Asian country except China, its Communist neighbor whose economic output has soared since it joined the WTO in late 2001.
