    The "Hong Kong of Latin America" First Choice for Business
    Thousands of export industries, distributors, purchasing organizations, service providers, freight forwarders, etc., from virtually every industrialized nation in the world have established headquarters for the Americas, Latin America and the Caribbean in Greater Miami. The increasing number of corporations that have located their Latin American headquarters in Greater Miami, have found that marketing, sales, distribution, service and operations in Central and South America and the Caribbean, can be managed in a more efficient manner from Greater Miami than from any other locations in North and South America. Miami is "neutral territory". Executives from all parts of Latin America visit Southeast Florida regularly to meet with customers and suppliers, to perform banking transactions, etc. Consequently, Miami has become a place where deals are made, closed and reconciled. Time Magazine proclaimed Miami the "Hong Kong of Latin America". In Miami, Latin cultures and traditions blend with North American efficiency and business, making this a truly unique international community.

    Latin Americans to Discuss
    Electronic Trade
    July 22, 1999
    The forum, co-organised by the Geneva-based World Intellectual Property Organisation ( WIPO ) and the Argentine government, will seek to boost the use of electronic commerce and fight piracy in the region.
    Lecturers include WIPO's global information advisor James Fullton and Andre Midani, Warner Music's Latin American unit president as well as experts from Spain and several Latin countries.
    Themes include use of domains and trademarks on the Internet and the spread of e-commerce within the framework of the planned Free Trade Area of the Americas.
    A series of panels will also explore related topics such as safe transfer of data and data encryption. The United States complains that software and music piracy is rampant in Latin America and the Caribbean. A U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation official said recently that in Argentina alone 70 percent of the computer software is pirated.
    E-commerce is still in its infancy in Latin America but experts said it is growing exponentially as Internet connections and telephone bills become more affordable and cultural barriers to online purchasing crumble.

    The project to create a continental market benefits only the US largest corporations
    In November this year, the Southern US city of Miami will hold a new conference on the future of the Free Trade Area of the Americas - FTAA or ALCA in Spanish -. The intention of the US officials is to put more pressure on Latin American representatives to speed up the integration process.
    US diplomats in Latin America are entitled to urge local Governments to have a favorable view on the question and adopt an active policy on the process. However, more and more voices inside and outside USA are rising against what the Brazilian President Lula Da Silva once considered "mere annexation" by Washington.
    Notwithstanding, little has been explained on what really FTAA means and who benefits from the treaty. In practical terms, the FTAA is an extension of NAFTA to all Latin America from Guatemala to Argentina.
    The program as it is today has five main characteristics. The main concept is Freedom of Trade, which means that all the countries will lift up limits to the import of goods. Analysts consider that it will have a serious impact on Latin American economies, as they will be compelled to produce only agricultural products.

    Hispanics are on track to become the largest minority group in the United States during the next decade and a full quarter of the population by 2050. In Harvest of Empire: A History of Latinos in America (Viking, $27), New York Daily News columnist Juan González , who entered with the Class of 1968, explores the origins and implications of the explosion of Latino peoples and cultures in the U.S. In this excerpt, González, who has been named one of the country's 100 most influential Hispanics by Hispanic Business and received a 1998 George Polk Journalism Award for Commentary, examines the consequences of free trade for Latin America.
    Juan Gonzalez

    North Americans at first ventured into Mexico, the Caribbean and Central America during the nineteenth century to buy up land and build massive transportation projects: Vanderbilt's Nicaraguan Transit Company, Minor Keith's Central American Railroad, Aspinwall's Panama Railroad, for example. By the early twentieth century, the main methods of exploitation had shifted to extracting raw materials — bananas, sugar, coffee, oil — and to financing the operations of Latin American governments. The region grew to be so important that by 1914, U.S. companies had $416 million in direct investments in Mexico alone, the highest of any country in the world, and Latin America overall accounted for nearly half of all U.S. foreign investment in the world.

    9:15 AM May 13, 1993 LATIN AMERICANS SEEK PANEL ON NEW EC BANANA REGIME Geneva 12 May (Chakravarthi Raghavan) The Latin American banana exporting countries raised in the GATT Council Wednesday their dispute with the European Community over its new EC-wide banana regime to come into force 1 July and sought panel adjudication and for the with panel asked to report within three months. However, the European Community did not agree to the establishment of the panel. The issue will come up at the next meeting of the Council when appointment would be automatic. A dispute raised by the very same countries about the existing regime of national quotas is being looked into by a GATT panel whose report is due later this week. Among other disputes, the Council was advised that the US had revoked the restraint it had imposed on imports of men and boys' wool suits from Brazil and the dispute was not being pursued. The dispute raised by the European Community against the United States over its taxes on sales of cars, which the EC said in practice discriminated against the imports was referred to a GATT panel. In the oilseeds dispute and the renegotiation of the EC's bound tariff (where the US and EC have reached an accord but yet to be accepted and implemented by the EC), others with renegotiating rights and who complained of EC's failure to negotiate seriously with them, were in effect advised by the EC to wait for the EC Council of Ministers taking a decision on the issue in June.

    Latin America - An Emerging Market for Indian Business
    In the past, Indian business had ignored Latin American market, considering it as distant and unstable. The popular impressions were: military dictatorships, hyper inflation reaching at times 4-digits, frequent changes and volatility of currencies, flights of capital and social upheavals. But these are things of the past.
    The Latin America of today has changed fundamentally and irreversibly. Democracy has been established firmly in most parts of Latin America.
    Inflation which used to be the greatest curse on Latin America has at last been tamed. The average inflation was brought down to a single digit in 1998. This went up to 12.2% in 1999 and 10.7% in 2000. But it is expected to go down to 7.1% in 2001, 6.1% in 2002 and 5% in 2003.
    The Latin American governments have opened up their markets and reduced import tariffs. They are privatising state enterprises. They give priority to modernisation and improvement of infrastructure. Governments have started paying serious attention to the basic problems such as poverty, education and healthcare.
    The currencies have by and large stabilized and the exchange rates have become predictable. The banking sector has undergone reforms and modernisation.

    U.S. Policy Towards Latin America During the Clinton Administration
    Latin Finance
    June 1997
    The Clinton administration is often accused of having no Latin American policy. Critics also accuse the administration of not showing leadership or of acting unilaterally when it does take the initiative. These charges are partially true, but also misleading because they judge US policy in terms of past political and economic realities instead of current ones. Those who find the administration's Latin American policy disappointing point to the glaring absence of an overarching policy such as Franklin Delano Roosevelt's Good Neighbor Policy, John F. Kennedy's Alliance for Progress, or George Bush's Enterprise for the Americas Initiative. They note that Bill Clinton is the first US president since Herbert Hoover not to visit Latin America during his first term in office. They also highlight the supposed lack of discussion about Latin America during the 1996 electoral campaign. The presidential and vice presidential debates, however, dealt extensively with Latin American issues. The Mexican bailout, the inflow of illegal drugs and migrants from Latin America, the Helms-Burton law and other aspects of Cuba policy and the drug de-certification issue received significant attention. For the most part, however, these issues were treated as aspects of US domestic rather than foreign policy, mainly because most of them involve Mexico. Given our shared 1,900-mile border, developments in Mexico have always had an impact on the US. With the opening of its economy in the late 1980s, interdependence between the two countries has grown rapidly. As a result, it has become virtually impossible to separate policy issues involving Mexico from US domestic politics.

The new grants add to earlier grants of US$66,500 received last year to introduce Hawaii’s model energy codes to the Philippines. The new projects will invite participation of Hawaii firms in collaborative projects with the Philippine government, as well as form joint ventures and partnerships between Hawaii’s energy service companies and Philippine firms. In these two projects, DBEDT will help Hawaii firms continue to gain familiarity with the Philippines market and help promote their technologies, products and services. Coinciding with the announcement of these two awards, ERTD has released a new book, "Energy Efficiency and Technology Transfer: A Hawaii-Philippines Case Study," which summarizes the results of pervious endeavors. This major study estimates that there is a potential market of US$655 million in energy efficiency and conservation technology transfer between Hawaii and the Philippines.

Yankee said a large number of developing enterprises have joined the few companies that have been transacting online in the region since the mid-1990s. "We were quite frankly surprised by the number of businesses that expressed the fact that they were now sourcing online," Grant Smith, senior analyst for Yankee's Latin American Internet strategy planning service, told the E-Commerce Times. Cutting Red Tape The firm sees groups from all industries moving to the Web to do business, though manufacturing, wholesale and retail sales, and financial services will see the greatest volume of transactions in coming years. The arrival of undersea cable and the availability of increased bandwidth are leading to an "interregional connectivity" that is fueling the boom in the region, said Smith.

    -Developing world looks to e-business for growth
    E-commerce and Development Report 2002 , released on 18 November 2002 by UNCTAD. The report says that the route to a prosperous B2B sector, and its attendant benefits for the economy at large, lies in joining regional and global supply chains. Prospects for that happening are good, especially given that the rapid growth in both e-commerce and Internet use is expected to continue. This applies particularly to the developing world, where penetration rates are lower. Internet use soared 30% last year, with one third of all new users in the developing world. E-commerce is also increasing in these countries, although more slowly, and that is particularly true of B2B, which comprises 95% of all e-commerce. The main impediment to the takeoff of B2B in the third world is inadequate information and communications technology (ICT) infrastructure, as well as shortcomings in physical infrastructure, logistics and trade facilitation. Regional outlooks vary Asia and the Pacific dominates in all these areas, pointing the way for other developing countries and regions to follow. It leads in the deployment of crucial broadband technologies, and its governments play a key role in attracting investment in the sector and supplying a skilled, educated workforce to meet the growing needs for outsourcing by foreign firms. Its enterprises are also more integrated into intraregional and global trade flows than those of other developing regions. Asia and the Pacific now accounts for 46% of digital subscriber lines worldwide and is adding 50 million new Internet users each year. Given the sheer demographic weight of the region, the potential for further growth is clear.

    Congressman Jim Kolbe TH DISTRICT ARIZONA "International Trade and E-Commerce: Framework for the Future" An Address Before The National Law Center for Inter-American Free Trade The Organization of American States Business Software Alliance October 1, 1999 Thank you for inviting me to speak to this distinguished group. I come before you today as a US Congressman dressed in shoes that come from Brazil, a tie from El Salvador, pants stitched in Haiti and a shirt from Ecuador. I arrived here in a taxi that may have been assembled in Canada. At my house, I arranged some Colombian flowers before I left and had a Honduran banana and Mexican coffee for breakfast. I almost arrived late because I was responding to all my email, many of them from overseas addresses. Como cambian los tiempos – how times change. I think the Organization of American States is a particularly opportune location to discuss international trade and e-commerce. It was actually in 1994 in Buenos Aires, Argentina, that Vice President Gore, who we know to be the inventor of the Internet, first called for the establishment of a Global Information Infrastructure to support e-commerce worldwide. Before talking about electronic commerce, I want to take a few moments to talk to you more generally about international trade. I want to talk to you about the need to craft a new trade message, one that will resonate with the American people, one that will capture their imagination. I hope those of you from other parts of the hemisphere will bear with me today as I discuss the state of international trade in this country. As we approach the opening of the World Trade Organization meeting in Seattle this November, the international trade regime, and the role the United States will play in it, is under attack with increasing intensity.

The explosion of e-commerce, Internet companies and huge investments in digital technology are creating even more incentives for business in the area.
    Katherine Harris, Secretary of State of Florida, highlighted the government's commitment to Latin America and Mercosur, with Miami's strategic position in that union: "Florida is the digital bridge to the Americas, linking both hemispheres", said Harris. What has helped Miami to achieve such a prominent position, she said, is also the support which the Federal and State governments have given the business community. "We have worked closely with the South Florida business community and listened to their needs", Harris pointed out.
    Kenneth H. MacKay, Special Envoy for the Americas, underlined the importance of Latin America for the United States. "The US used to think in terms of East-West relations, but today the focus is clearly on North-South relations. It is also clear that our future lies in the South", said MacKay. "We want this hemisphere to come together, because we believe in the future of Mercosur and I want to make it clear that President Clinton supports Mercosur", he added. "Mercosur does not pose a threat to US trade, quite the contrary. It will now be easier to negotiate with a solid trading bloc rather than with several partners", MacKay concluded.
