Abstract: Abstract After fifteen years of negotiations, China finally became the 143rd member of the World Trade Organization (WTO) in December 2001 in the WTO’s fourth round of ministerial meetings in Doha, Qatar. It was a historical moment that China had awaited anxiously since it submitted its application to be a General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) observer in September 1982.
