YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Taiwan is a member of APEC (Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation). Its economy would make it among the more developed in the now 12 country Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) negotiation. It would seemingly stand to benefit from better integration into the global economy, especially in light of South Korea's FTA with the U.S. and other regional trade tie-ups. So what are the prospects for Taiwan joining the TPP at some time in the near future? Is joining the talks a priority for Taiwan, or is it content to pursue other options? What are the economic benefits and drawbacks to its interests and to America's? Is it an economic question at all or is it more a political issue associated with cross-straits policy?
