Note this brief entry from the above post on ‘temporary entry’:

“2. Viet Nam shall grant temporary entry to Intra-Corporate Transferees, as defined below, working in services sectors and sub-sectors if Viet Nam undertook commitments in the WTO (WT/ACC/VNM/48/

Add. 2) without requiring these business persons to obtain a work permit or an equivalent requirement as a condition of temporary entry.”

So, if VietNam or other signatory has this language in the Appendix 12A boilerplate, any number of persons who fall under any other WTO agreement (WT/ACC/VNM/48/Add.) can come in for any reason.

I have not verified whether this statement is in all the other countries’ PDFs.

‘Temporary Entry’ consists of 3 month to 1 year entry. No mention is made of renewals or other visa/student provisions.

Here, NASA Community College Aerospace Scholars engage in a three-day workshop.

I see I've been beaten to the punch, but that rather more looks like kindergarten playtime.

see the PDFs on temporary entry.

Thanks, you've done a lot of research and I do thank you.  The Temporary Entry list I saw was just:

Australia
Brunei
Canada
Chile
Japan
Malaysia
Mexico
New Zealand
Peru
Singapore
Viet Nam

--and I'm not seeing any requirements for changes in U.S. visa law.  This may be because existing U.S. law already complies but I'd have thot that other countries would've at least required the U.S. promise to not change it. 

Where we are now though is that it would've been useful if we'd only found an actual requirement forcing the U.S. to allow all foreign workers to move freely into the U.S. but the only changes we're finding so far are things other countries are going to do --probably with or without the U.S. signing on  --but that's their business anyway I guess.

Just the same thanks again for the input.

At some point the Marx’s prediction about free trades ability to destroy an industrialized country like the USA’s economy will come true and the average person will see no benefit at all in capitalism and throw in with the socialists. It is happening now. An out and out Communist Bernie Sanders almost secured the Democrat nomination for President.

fwiw, over the centuries the nations that amassed the most wealth though trade with other countries ended up being the most powerful and having the happiest citizens.

That is BS. During the USA's first 130 years there was amazing economic growth and there were huge tariffs on imports. The Federal govt was funded purely on tariffs and no income taxes. Nirvana!
