Short research papers have been drafted covering a number of major sections, as well as focusing on projected impacts for unions in ASETUC sectors. These remain as a work in progress. During the consultation meeting, feedbacks of participants were requested on part of this research, particularly with regards to the implications of TPPA on various sectors.

Presentation on different topics in relation to TPPA was presented by Brother Edward Miller, BWI Regional Campaign Office. Among the key topics discussed during the consultation meeting are as follows:


  • Introduction and background of project
  • TPPA history and context
  • Brief analysis of projected macro-economic impact of TPPA for Malaysia
  • Investment chapter
  • Labour chapter
  • Impact on BWI sectors (construction, wood and forestry)
  • Impact on PSI sectors (including impacts on health, State Owned Enterprise
    (SOE) chapters and privatisation impacts)
  • Impact on UNI Sectors (including financial services)
  • Implementation
The meeting was concluded with constructive feedback from participants and closing remarks from Brother Dong, Regional Representative of BWI and Brother Shafie, General Secretary of ASETUC.
