— The phenomenol success of the East Asian "Tigers" is spreading 

 throughout the Pacific, led by China which now has an economy that 

 measured in purchasing power parity is second only to the U.S. In 

 fact, by the middle of the next century Asia will have half of global 

 GDP — double Asia's share today. Substantial demand for food products 

 and limited production growth potential will spur trade. 



The U.S. can take advantage of these developments to improve its 

 position in the world trading system if U.S. policy is responsive to 

 the real conditions and opportunities that exist today. 



We must: 



1. Identify the Markets; 



2. Identify the Buyers; 



3. Determine the Policies; and 



3. Execute an Effective Strategy. 



Different countries and different product markets will require 

 different policies and strategies.
