Real GDP growth in 2007 in the region reached a record of 7.5%, though it is projected to slow by 1% in 2008, or even lower as a result of the economic downturn in the United States and Western Europe. FDI inflows into the region rose by 32% in 2007 as compared to 2006, reaching a record total of $99 billion, with the Russian Federation being the main destination ($55 billion). Except for some CIS oil-rich countries, many countries in the region are recording very large current-account deficits, especially the Balkans, indicating their increased vulnerability to external shocks.</description><link>http://www.intracen.org/Eastern-Europe-and-Central-Asia-Strengthening-Competitiveness/</link><pubDate>03/08/2011 7:34:56 PM</pubDate></item><item><title>Eastern Europe and Central Asia</title><description>Promoting public-private dialogue in negotiations on WTO accession across 11 countries</description><link>http://www.intracen.org/Eastern-Europe-and-Central-Asia/</link><pubDate>03/08/2011 7:34:46 PM</pubDate></item><item><title>Ministry of Economy and Trade(3)</title><description>Ministry of Economy and Trade  Contact:   Address:37, Bohtar Street DUSHANBE-734025 Tajikistan  Tel.   Fax:  :(00992372) 273434  (00992372) 215132   Email   Web:  :takhir1968@mail.</description><link>http://www.intracen.org/Ministry-of-Economy-and-Trade3/</link><pubDate>03/07/2011 6:13:47 PM</pubDate></item><item><title>Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Tajikistan</title><description>Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Tajikistan Contact:Mr. A.

The advent of digital networks as a new promotion and distribution medium means that the investments required to produce, market and distribute music is now lower than ever before, offering small recording companies unprecedented opportunities to offer their products at affordable prices for consumers.However, in many cases, piracy can still thrive in a context of expensive and archaic distribution methods, which in developing countries offer a marked contrast to the low price and general availability of pirate copies. As a consequence, earnings are sporadic and largely dependent on live performances, although the music industry contributes significantly to employment and gross domestic product figures.</description><link>http://www.intracen.org/Trade-in-Sounds-How-Technology-has-Changed-the-World-of-Global-Music/</link><pubDate>02/24/2011 5:52:19 PM</pubDate></item><item><title>ITC in Action</title><description>With the help of private sector exporters, developing countries can trade their way out of poverty.
