June 29, 2002, in the 28th conference of the Chinese 9th People's Congress Council, 《The Government Procurement Act of the People's Republic of China> was approved and came into force from Jan 1, 2003. From 1996, the government of the People's Republic of China began the experiment work of the government procurement. The scope of the government procurement extended rapidly and the capital increased rapidly. In such situation, the enactment of the government procurement law is necessary. On the other hand, the significance of the enactment of this act means promoting the government procurement development rapidly and correctly.At the end of 70's, 20th century, most developed countries signed 《Agreement on government procurement》 in the Tokyo round of GATT. This multilateral agreement began the openness of the procuring activity made by the government unit. Because of the scope of application of this agreement was still limited, a new multilateral trade negotiation was hold in the Uruguay round of GATT. A new agreement on government procurement (GPA) was signed in Marrakech in 1994. In spite of GPA is at present only a multilateral agreement of self-imposed, from long-range, sooner or later it will be brought into the series of agreements of WTO. China is the Member State of WTO, it will be an inevitable tendency to go into the GPA and open the government procurement market.In this article, I compared and analyzed several relative problems of the Chinese government procurement act and GPA. Then I expounded the foreground of go into GPA of our government, the existent problems and at last the policy and preparatory work our government should take.
