( 2003-12-28 10:54) (Xinhua)
Members of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress (NPC),
China's top legislature, attended a lecture Saturday to learn about issues
concerning foreign trade legislation.
Wu Bangguo, chairman of the NPC Standing Committee, presided over the
lecture.
Wu told the legislators that the draft of the amendments to the Foreign Trade
Law will be handed to the NPC Standing Committee for discussion. He said that he
hoped that the lecture could help them better understand legislation concerning
foreign trade.
Dr. Shen Sibao, the lecturer, from the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation
University, spoke on a number of main aspects of foreign trade law.
The existing Foreign Trade Law, which was issued 10 years ago, can no longer
meet the situation following China's entry to the World Trade Organization two
years ago, according to the professor.
