Increasingly, cooperative regional groupings are predomination the world economic scene among neighboring countries such as preferential tariff. In addition, new proposals about the linkage and integration of regional trade agreements are on rise. In particular, there have been accelerated to integration regional trade agreements such at the European Community (EC), North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). For this very reason, interest in an economic cooperation among the Northeast Asian countries is rapidly increasing.
