Ambassador Karen Tan (Singapore)
K SEVENTH ANNUAL REVIEW UNDER PARAGRAPH 2 OF THE DECISION ON THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ARTICLE 66.2 OF THE TRIPS AGREEMENT
174. The representative of Angola thanked delegations for their exhaustive reports on the implementation of Article 66.2. He said that it was important that, in the context of Article 66.2, developed country Members provide greater subsidies to their enterprises to promote clean technology. This had a cross cutting importance, particularly in the light of the forthcoming meeting in Copenhagen. It was also important to assist LDCs with regard to infrastructure and the creation of local content. He hoped that in October 2010, those two aspects would be reflected in the reports to satisfy the needs of LDCs
