Correct answer
Explanation
The correct chronological order of WTO Ministerial Meetings is: Singapore (1996 - first ministerial, established working groups), Doha (2001 - launched Doha Development Round), Cancun (2003 - breakdown over Singapore issues/agriculture), Hong Kong (2005 - partial progress on agriculture). The sequence reflects the evolution of WTO trade negotiations from initial working group establishment through the Doha Round launch to subsequent ministerial conferences attempting to advance the round. Doha came before Cancun in the Doha Round timeline.
