Concluding Remarks by the Chairperson of the Trade Policy Review Body, H.E. Mr. Eloi Laourou of Benin at the Trade Policy Review of The Separate Customs Territory of Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen and Matsu, 12 and 14 September 2018
The fourth Trade Policy Review of the Separate Customs Territory of Taiwan Penghu Kinmen and Matsu (Chinese Taipei) has offered us a good opportunity to deepen our understanding of recent developments in and challenges to its trade economic and investment policies. Since its last review in 2014 Chinese Taipei’s initiatives to further integrate into the multilateral trading system have been greatly appreciated. Indeed the more than 400 advance written questions submitted by 22 Members and the 29 delegations that took the floor during the two days of the meeting underline the importance attached by Members to Chinese Taipei’s trade and investment policies and practices.

This fifth Trade Policy Review has allowed us to deepen our understanding of Colombia’s trade and investment policies and in particular of the several reforms and changes introduced since the last Review in 2012.
