PM Nguyễn Tấn Dũng briefed
some positive results of the admission to WTO, especially in GDP, trade and
foreign investment.
Last year, Việt
PM Dũng stated that, as
president of ASEAN in 2010, Việt Nam and other ASEAN peers want to conclude the
Doha Round for the sake of underdeveloped and developing countries.
According to the Vietnamese

trade development and market penetration while reducing trade protectionism.
ASEAN is expected to play
an intermediate role in 2010 in finishing the Doha Round on schedule.
