Taiwan’s new deputy rep to WTO assumes office

Taiwan’s new deputy representative to the World Trade Organization (WTO) assumed office Friday. Almost immediately after taking up his new post, Wei Ko-ming began work on matters concerning the Doha Development Round of WTO negotiations, which aims to lower trade barriers around the world.

Wei, a seasoned trade negotiator who once served as deputy head of the Board of Foreign Trade (BOFT), is no stranger to WTO affairs as he was deeply involved in negotiations for Taiwan’s WTO accession during his tenure as BOFT deputy director.

Before coming to Geneva, Wei served as Taiwan’s deputy representative to the European Union and Belgium. During his more than four years serving in the post, Wei made contributions to efforts to promote Taiwan’s trade and economic relations with the European Union and Belgium. Wei was appointed last September to fill the post left vacant by John C. Deng, who has been serving as Taiwan's deputy representative to tje United States since late last June.
