To provide that most-favored-nation trading status for the People’s Republic
of China may continue provided that Taiwan is admitted to the World
Trade Organization by March 1, 1997.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
JUNE 4, 1996
Mr. COX of California (for himself, Mr. GILMAN, Mr. SOLOMON, Mr.
TORRICELLI, Mr. LANTOS, Mr. SMITH of New Jersey, Mr. ROYCE, Mr.
BURTON of Indiana, Mr. SCARBOROUGH, Mr. FUNDERBURK, Mr. BROWN

A BILL
To provide that most-favored-nation trading status for the
People’s Republic of China may continue provided that
Taiwan is admitted to the World Trade Organization
by March 1, 1997.
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,
SECTION 1. FINDINGS.
The Congress finds that—
(1) the purpose of the World Trade Organiza-
tion (hereafter in this Act referred to as the
‘‘WTO’’) is to enable member countries to conduct
trade based upon free market principles, by limiting
government intervention in the form of state sub-
sidies, by limiting nontariff barriers, and by encour-
aging reciprocal reductions in tariffs among mem-
bers;
(2) the WTO is based on the assumption that
the import and export of goods are conducted by
independent enterprises responding to profit incen-
tives and market forces;
(3) the WTO requires that countries with non-
market economies implement significant reforms to
change centralized and planned economic systems
before they may be considered for WTO member-
ship, and the existence of a decentralized and a free
market economy is considered a precondition to fair
trade among WTO members;
(4) pursuant to its charter and rules, member-
ship in the WTO is not limited to nations nor indic-
ative of sovereignty, a policy illustrated by the fact
that Hong Kong will remain a full member of the
WTO as a separate customs territory after becoming
part of the People’s Republic of China on July 1,
1997;
