 NEW CARIBBEAN FORMULA STIRS UP NAMA TALKS
Talks during the previous NAMA week, from 6-10 June, had seemed to suggest many previously undecided countries had accepted a simple 'Swiss' formula for tariff reduction (see BRIDGES Weekly, 8 June 2005).
The June NAMA session followed a summit of Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) member states at which 21 Pacific Rim nations including China, Indonesia, and Thailand endorsed a Swiss formula for tariff reduction, along with the establishment of binding caps for all tariff lines.
A group of recently-acceded transition economies and another of developing countries that have bound a low percentage of their tariff lines made similar proposals asking to be exempt from tariff reduction in the Doha Round, in effect asking to be accorded the treatment that the July Package (WT/L/579) allows for least-developed countries (LDCs).

The purpose of all spiritual philosophies is to introduce to the mind a series of concepts (nama) that help to elucidate the philosophy and thus guide an individual to liberation.
