The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) Agreement, which is now being negotiated between 11 states – including Australia, Brunei Darussalam, Canada, Chile, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, the United States and Viet Nam – is supposed to solve many of the problems that have come from overlapping trade deals in the past decade. It is also supposed to be different – “a highquality, 21st-century” agreement that will set standards for future trade agreements.
