He noted that together with current cooperation and connection mechanisms like the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) and the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP), the TPP conclusion marks an important milestone n promoting the multi-layered connectivity trend and maintaining peace, stability and dynamic development in Asia-Pacific.
The deal contributes to diversifying markets and material supply sources, thus facilitating Vietnam’s deeper involvement in regional and global production networks and value chains, he said.
Vietnam will continue to increase the capacity of localities and businesses to implement earnestly the TPP commitments and optimise its benefits, in preparation for the signing and ratification of the world’s largest free trade pact, he added.
