Concluding Remarks by the Chairperson of the Trade Policy Review Body, H.E. Mr. Manuel A.J. Teehankee of the Philippines at the Trade Policy Review of Papua New Guinea, 8 and 10 May 2019

This third Trade Policy Review of Papua New Guinea has offered us a good opportunity to deepen our understanding of recent developments in, and challenges to, its trade, economic, and investment policies. Our discussion has benefited from the active participation of the PNG delegation, led by Ambassador Joshua Kalinoe, as well as from the contribution of our discussant, Ambassador Martins Kreitus, Permanent Representative of Latvia to the WTO. I would also like to thank the 21 delegations that took the floor for their interventions.
