The book is highly targeted and suitable for leaders in different jobs or industries to study, think about, and apply.
Our Party cadres at all levels, especially leaders, should take China's entry into the WTO as an opportunity to seriously study and familiarize themselves with the basic principles and relevant rules of the WTO, improving their ability to operate according to international common rules.

It is essential to organize learning and training programs on WTO knowledge to cultivate a high-quality talent pool. We are required to prioritize the popularization of WTO basic knowledge and the cultivation of professional talents who can adapt to the demands of China's entry into the WTO as a key task for all Party schools, administrative colleges, and relevant training institutions, especially for our leaders at all levels. It is crucial to organize response efforts in each province and department and to implement the Party Central Committee and the State Council's work arrangements in practice.
