Can you pls. describe the difference between this "e-trade" and
"e-commerce" and "e-business".

Frankly, I don't care what fancy new words some government officials are
inventing. I care, what the potential business partners in other countries
expect: Offering, ordering, invoicing, payment, and delivery (latter one
where applicable) via the Internet. Let's call it "OOIPD".
And I - and the Government - should care about what APEC considers as
eCommerce. See www.ecommerce.gov/apec/docs/chapter4.html#ec.

To call a website, where not a single item of OOIPD works, the first
"eCommerce site", is like calling a plot of land a forest, before the first
tree is planted.
