| description |
This following report is divided into
four chapters, with chapter one containing the introduction.
Chapter two reviews the state of ICT-competitiveness in the
case study countries, by looking at infrastructure, the
legal and regulatory situation, the business environment,
and human resources. Chapter three examines the benefits of
ICT for the overall economy as well as for facilitating
traditional trade and participating in emerging ICT-enabled
services trade. It analyzes the case study countries'
potential for becoming players in ICT-enabled services.
Finally, chapter four identifies the case study countries
existing WTO ICT-related commitments, pointing out what
changes are necessary to make deeper commitments and hence
strengthen credibility as reliable trading partners. |
