In early 2016, the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) Agreement—involving twelve countries on the Pacific Ocean rim, including the USA—was signed in New Zealand. Right after his inauguration in January 2017, newly elected US President Donald Trump withdrew from the TPP, effectively killing the agreement as its terms require the participation of both the US and Japan.
If Obama can ensure the ratification of the TPP and bring the TTIP negotiations to a conclusion, he will have laid the groundwork for future progress. If he falls short on either task – or, catastrophically, fails on both – the world will face a far more uncertain future.
The long-awaited text of the landmark trade deal called the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) is released to the public for the first time.
What will kill RMG in Bangladesh? Trans-Pacific Partnership or security fears? It may certainly be the second one and not the first. To begin with, the full text of the TPP is not yet available.
The Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement was signed on October 5. As Bangladesh is not a signatory, the country's garments sector (RMG) is likely to suffer as it will not get preferential treatment for RMG export to the TPP member countries.
The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) treaty currently under negotiation could potentially affect Bangladesh's economy in the near future, although at this point it is not clear how large the impact might be since many of the details are still under wrap.
