Request by Korea for Arbitration under Article 21.3(c) of the DSU

 The following communication, dated 25 February 2008, from the delegation of Korea to the
Chairperson of the Dispute Settlement Body, is circulated at the request of that delegation.

 On 17 December 2007, the DSB adopted the recommendations and rulings made in the
Appellate Body and Panel reports in Japan - Countervailing Duties on Dynamic Random Access
Memories from Korea. On 15 January 2008, Japan confirmed to the DSB its intention to implement
the recommendations and rulings of the DSB.

 Since the adoption of the Appellate Body and Pa nel reports, pursuant to Article 21.3(b) of the
DSU, Korea and Japan have conducted discussions to reach agreement on a "reasonable period of
time" for Japan's implementation of the DSB recomm endations and rulings. However, no mutually
satisfactory solution has been found to date.

 Therefore, Korea requests that the "reasonabl e period of time" be determined by binding
arbitration pursuant to Article 21.3(c) of the DS U. In this regard, Korea will promptly open
discussions with Japan with a view to achieving agre ement on an arbitrator within the next ten days
pursuant to footnote 12 of the DSU.
