Concluding Remarks by the Chairperson of The Trade Policy Review Body, H.E. Mr. Yonov Frederick Agahat The Trade Policy Review of Brunei Darussalam 25 and 27 February 2008

The second Trade Policy Review of Brunei Darussalam has been thorough and informative and has allowed Members to come to a better understanding of Brunei’s trade and trade-related policies and of the challenges it faces as it seeks to diversify its economy. I thank Mr. Dato Lim Jock Hoi and his delegation, as well as the discussant, Ambassador Marie-Claire Swärd Capra of Sweden, and Members of the TPRB for contributing to our fruitful exchange of views. The reports by Brunei and the Secretariat, as well as the detailed responses of the delegation of Brunei Darussalam to the many questions posed, have provided a valuable resource for reflection and for transparency within the WTO.
