He said over the past six years, 12 members of the TPP have worked hard to negotiate and conclude the signing of the trade pact, a new-generation free trade agreement.
If executed, the TPP would satisfy the common interests of all member nations, not only creating a new momentum for their economic-trade relations, but also holding significance for economic cooperation and connectivity as well as stability and prosperity in the Asian-Pacific region, he added.
Vietnam’s involvement in the TPP and other FTAs is also intended to improve its legal system and market economy institution and create a new driving force to spur the domestic economic growth and contribute to the regional economic integration and connectivity, he noted.
He affirmed that Vietnam will push ahead with renovations and step up preparations at home to ensure the effective implementation of its commitments under the signed and to-be-signed free trade agreements.
