The Korean Government hereby requests modification in Schedule LX – Korea concerning
motor cars and other motor vehicles which fall in the heading No. 8703.  The requested modification
will reduce the existing bound rates and grant tariff concessions to the currently unbound vehicles.
With the modified schedule (see attached), the base rate (column 3) for the currently bound
items are the bound rates for 1998, and those for the currently bound items are the general rates for
