Isn't it ridiculous, they ask, that a country that possesses the world's largest foreign exchange reserves--the second largest foreign investor in Asia, the world's 13th largest trading nation [note: it was 15th in 1990] and America's sixth largest trading partner--isn't a member of GATT?
它強調：以中華民國今天的經濟實力﹘﹘全球第一的外匯存底、亞洲第二大投資者、全球第十三大貿國（編按，七十九年為第十五位）、美國第六大貿易夥伴﹘﹘卻不是關貿總協成員的荒謬。
