Extractions: First and foremost, I wish to express my gratitude to the organizers of this Conference, the Government of South Africa and, in particular, the city and the people of Durban, who have been putting up with all of us with such generous hospitality and friendliness, efficiency and professionalism. Thank you. Despite the great efforts the international community and many states have put into combating racism, we still suffer from racist practices and their effects all over the world. In order to eliminate such discrimination and its consequences in the future, we also have to recognize the failures in the past. It is our duty, here and now, to show flag and to develop action. Colonialism, slavery and slave-trade are dark chapters in the book of mankind's history and have left their traces until today. These humiliating practices gave rise to a concept of superiority and inferiority among human beings, leading to the violation of human rights. Along with this, the one-sided exploitation of land and resources contributed to poverty, social injustice and to economic underdevelopment of entire regions. We deeply regret these historical wrongs. We are committed to combat all their negative consequences in the present and in the future. And we support all common efforts undertaken by the international community in this regard.

Extractions: In fact, with an unemployment rate that hovers around 1.4 percent and a ready pool of highly skilled workers, the Liechtenstein economy rivals that of most developed nations. This tremendous economic growth has been spurred by very low business taxes and liberal economic laws for foreign companies, which, in particular, has attracted a flood of banking and other financial services companies to Liechtenstein, making the tiny nation a major hub of fiscal activity.

Extractions: Original: English MINISTERIAL CONFERENCE Singapore, 9-13 December 1996 LIECHTENSTEIN Statement by H.E. Mr. Roland Marxer Ambassador, Permanent Representative to the WTO at Geneva On behalf of Ms. Andrea Willi, the Foreign Minister of the Principality of Liechtenstein, who apologises for not being in a position to attend this historic first Ministerial Conference, I would like to extend my warmest thanks to the Prime Minister of Singapore, H.E. Mr. Goh Chok Tong, for hosting the Conference and for the warm welcome we have all been given in this beautiful city. I would also like to express the appreciation of the Liechtenstein delegation for the excellent work the Director-General, Mr. Renato Ruggiero and the Members of the Secretariat have done during the last two years. The World Trade Organization has been existing for two years now and we are pleased to see that all Agreements are operational and the dispute settlement system is functioning well. The implementation of the Uruguay results is taking place in a reasonably efficient manner, but we should not forget that some implementation work still has to be done, so as to ensure that the results of the Uruguay Round are implemented faithfully and in their entirety and in accordance with the established timetable and modalities. As to future developments we should assure that the time-frames established in the Agreements will be respected in each case. However, an acceleration of steps to further liberalize trade should be handled most carefully, in order to give all Members the possibility to fulfil their commitments and thus to back the credibility of the World Trade Organization for the medium and long term.
