Morning Talk - Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPPA) - What the "biggest trade deal in history" means for Malaysia

4 March 2016

Speaker: Philippe Girard-Foley, Girard-Foley & Associate
Thursday, 10th March 2016 | CCIFM Office

Dear members & friends,

The TPPA has been called by the World Bank "the largest, most diverse and potentially most comprehensive regional trade agreement yet" and characterised as a "new generation" trade agreement. Malaysia is one of its 11 members, ranging from the USA and Canada to Japan and Singapore.

The TPPA will change not just the way that Malaysia does business with most of the world but also the way business is done within Malaysia, with an impact on labour and environmental standards, dispute resolution, intellectual property and several other areas. An early knowledge of those impacts is mandatory for CEO's and executives both Malaysian and foreign operating in Malaysia.

Philippe Girard-Foley, a member of the Paris Bar trained in France, the US and Australia, specialising in the business laws of Asia (ASEAN, China and India), representative in France for legal and tax matters of the Malaysian-French Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
