According to a March 26 speech by WTO Director-General Mike Moore in Doha, Qatar,the WTO is adopting a strategy to further engage the Arab region in the multilateral trading system. Among the proposals Moore cited was increased technical assistance for Arab countries and the exploration of ways to improve the flow of communications and WTO- related information to Arab countries. As a first step, the WTO has been working with the Arab-based Talal Abu-Ghazaleh & Co. (TAGI) foundation to establish an unofficial Arabic language website on the WTO. The site, which can be reached at http://www.wtoarab.org/, will make available both background information as well as current and breaking news related to the WTO and the Arab-speaking world. Moore also said the accession of Arab countries was being made a priority as part of the Arab strategy.
