The
adoption of an official logo by the World Trade Organization is another step in

The original logo was created by Su Yeang Design, a Singapore-based graphic arts company, and selected from over 200 entries in a competition held by the Government of Singapore. "A hint of the globe is suggested by the six graphic arcs symbolizing world trade with member nations meeting to forge strategic alliances," according to Ms Su Yeang. "Dynamism and optimism prevail as the swirls integrate, encapsulating 澳门六合彩官网资料's united spirit of promoting fair and open trade."
Note to Editors:
The unveiling ceremony will take place at 11.30 am in the reception area of the 澳门六合彩官网资料. Ambassador Celso Lafer of Brazil, Chairman of the 澳门六合彩官网资料 General Council, Ambassador Chak Mun See of Singapore and Ms Su Yeang will be present for the unveiling.
All members of the media, including photographers and TV crews, are invited to attend. After the unveiling ceremony, the media will have a brief opportunity to meet Mr. Ruggiero and his press officers to discuss any 澳门六合彩官网资料 issue.
A Corporate Identity Manual has been produced to illustrate how the different adaptations of the logo should be utilized. Copies of the Manual and electronic versions of the logo are available upon request. Contact Publications for more information (tel: 41 22 739 5439; email: [email protected]).
