-----Original Message----- From: John Hermann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: John Hermann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wednesday, 18 August 1999 8:29 PM Subject: 4/8 updated stop millennium round statement Economic Reform Australia ERA EMAIL NETWORK Date: Mon, 16 Aug 1999 From: Ronnie Hall <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Organization: Friends of the Earth Subject: 4/8 updated stop millennium round statement Dear friends Here is the updated list of organisations signed up to the Stop the Millennium Round Statement. It's looking good! 798 signatures and I have received another 40 sign-ons while I've been on holiday, although they are not yet included in the list. Those of you who subcribe to the StopWTORound list serve (at http://www.onelist.com) will know that there is a GLOBAL LAUNCH OF THE STOP THE MILLENNIUM ROUND STATEMENT PLANNED FOR 15 SEPTEMBER. No one is leading on this, it just means that anyone who's signed up to the statement should aim to publicise / press release the statement nationally or locally on that day if they can. If we can get news coverage in up to 75 countries around the world that would be great. If you can circulate the statement to any other organisations you have contact with that would also be helpful as we would like to try and hit a target of 1000 sign-ons by that date. (We will send out an updated number and list shortly before that date). For those of you seeking national coverage you may wish to publish a joint press release with other organisations in your country who have signed up. I'm sorry that the list is not organised country-by-country but we just don't have the resources to do this at the moment. The full statement, in English, French and Spanish, is available at StopWTORound in the Shared Files area. warmest wishes to you all Ronnie Hall, Friends of the Earth STATEMENT FROM MEMBERS OF INTERNATIONAL CIVIL SOCIETY OPPOSING A MILLENNIUM ROUND OR A NEW ROUND OF COMPREHENSIVE TRADE NEGOTIATIONS Last updated: 4 August 1999 Signed by that date by 798 organisations from over 75 countries In November 1999, the governments of the world will meet in Seattle for the World Trade Organisation's Third Ministerial Conference. We, the undersigned members of international civil society, oppose any effort to expand the powers of the World Trade Organisation (WTO) through a new comprehensive round of trade liberalisation. Instead, governments should review and rectify the deficiencies of the system and the WTO regime itself. The Uruguay Round Agreements and the establishment of the WTO were proclaimed as a means of enhancing the creation of global wealth and prosperity and promoting the well-being of all people in all member states. In reality however, in the past five years the WTO has contributed to the concentration of wealth in the hands of the rich few; increasing poverty for the majority of the world's population; and unsustainable patterns of production and consumption. The Uruguay Round Agreements have functioned principally to prise open markets for the benefit of transnational corporations at the expense of national economies; workers, farmers and other people; and the environment. In addition, the WTO system, rules and procedures are undemocratic, untransparent and non-accountable and have operated to marginalise the majority of the world's people. All this has taken place in the context of increasing global economic instability, the collapse of national economies, increasing inequity both between and within nations and increasing environmental and social degradation, as a result of the acceleration of the process of globalisation. The governments which dominate the WTO and the transnational corporations which have benefited from the WTO system have refused to recognise and address these problems. Instead, they are pushing for further liberalisation through the introduction of new issues for adoption in the WTO. This will lead to the exacerbation of the crisis associated with the process of globalisation and the WTO. We oppose any further liberalisation negotiations, especially those which will bring new areas under the WTO regime, such as investment, competition policy and government procurement. We commit ourselves to campaign to reject any such proposals. We also oppose the Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS) Agreement. We call for a moratorium on any new issues or further negotiations that expand the scope and power of the WTO. During this moratorium there should be a comprehensive and in-depth review and assessment of the existing agreements. Effective steps should then be taken to change the agreements. Such a review should address the WTO's impact on marginalised communities, development, democracy, environment, health, human rights, labour rights and the rights of women and children. The review must be conducted with civil society's full participation. The failure of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development's Multilateral Agreement on Investment (MAI) demonstrates broad public opposition to the deregulation of the global economy, the increasing dominance of transnational corporations and escalating resource use and environmental degradation. A review of the system will provide an opportunity for society to change course and develop an alternative, humane and sustainable international system of trade and investment relations.
