I would like to know any trade issues or trade disputes between these three countries in ASEAN and EU in order to be possible trade issues in negotiation about Free Trade Agreement (FTA).\n\nNow i'm doing research about the feasibility of ASEAN-EU FTA.. \n\nDo you think if it is possible or not to create FTA between ASEAN and EU?\n\nPlease give your opinions\nThank you.

How about asking them about the US plan to provide nuclear fuel to India? \nWar in Iraq questions are always good... how about, "what will it take for the EU to begin security control in Iraq?"\nHow about something about Belarus and their recent elections.  "What steps is the EU taking to eliminate dictatorships in Europe?"

(nb I'm an American and unabashed Anglophile).  I wish the UK were closer to North America so it could be a natural trading partner of NAFTA rather than the EU.  The military alliance between the UK and US is very strong; would that we could have the same relationship vis a vis trade.  (The "EU Citizens" and "All Others" lines at British airports make me cringe: When I visit the UK, I'd like to have the same legal status a Frenchman or Pole has, rather than being lumped in with the Mongolians and "all others.")  \n\n I've long maintained that the US would be a nicer nation if it had been a British territory for about another hundred years, the way Canada was.  We'd have gotten rid of slavery a lot sooner, might have been able to avoid the Civil War and might have gotten industrialized a little faster if we'd had direct British influence.  \n\n In establishing Rhodes Scholarships, Cecil Rhodes hoped to draw the US into the British Commonwealth by exposing the cream of US academia to Oxford.  How I wish he'd succeeded...

i think it is way more complicated then Europe and here is why. European nations have the advantage of being so close together- asia is much more spread apart. European countries are smaller- think Iran, China, India, Vietnam, Indoneisa,Japan..some of those are about or bigger then all of Europe. We are talking about so much more money,cause the economies in these countries is so much more then that of europe. Nope, dont think it will happen or that it would be a good thing if it did.

Any relationship with Viet Nam is good. \n\nAs for the United States government trying to encourage a trade agreement, it's simply another way of adding a tax, usually called tariff or excise tax. Similar to sin taxes on alcohol or cigarettes.\n\nShould the two governments go into an agreement on trade it will benefit the governments. Both will say; the agreements are to benefit business but that's political rhetoric. Both governments will get money for businesses that are trading with the others country.\n\nKnowing how government works, it wouldn't surprise me if the US were asking for some military base of operations or something like that, in order to complete an agreement.\n\nAnd, just so you know, we do trade with Viet Nam. It's just not an open trade agreement that the government can levy large taxes against.

Maybe you should redefine your subject. Diplomacy requires multilateralism. No progress towards consensus occurs without it. Two nations may have apparently very unilateral foreign policies adverse to one another, but the moment they conduct any diplomacy even those policies become multilateral or they will likely make no progress in any negotiations.

Hi da, \n\nWhat is the product you are dealing with?\n\nIf it is textile - Textile export promotion organisation is there. (I guess for most of the products such promotion organisations are there.. at least the few i know are for silk and engineering products)\n\nIf you can't find them, go to your nearest Chamber of commerce. They should be able to guide you through. \n\nIf you know which country really needs those imports and if you know where you can positivly market your product, try visiting the high-commision or Embasy of the country, there must be a trade devolepment wing which will have a directry of the importers in to their country.\n\nThere are many international yellow pages / trade directories available. You can check them out.\n\nIf nothing works, try google search and you might find the dealers of your products in other countries and send your random promotional letters to them all. Something will comethrough.\n\nWish you all the best

Croatia will join EU in the next round after it cleans its act up. They've had a few internal political hiccups along the way, but I think they will come out fine. Croatia will have positive economical effects, and I would say tourism will become one of its main industries. Political, will be interesting.. Especially if Serbia decides to apply for EU. Not familiar enough with Barry's theory to comment.

Netherlands and Serbia/M\njust wait and see ;)

They probably should form an organizationlike the EU, but the reality is their economies aren't developed enough to do so.  They also suffer from a long history of corruption.  In a perfect world, it would make a lot of sense.

True. Put the following facts in your paper:\n\n1. Emergence of the World Trade Organization (WTO), something like a United Nations Under Trade. All countries participate in it, recently China has been admitted, and once a country gets in it is bound to free trade relations with the other countries.\n\n2. emergence of new technologies of communication, huge and effective transportation networks (think of airplanes and airports almost everywhere, when you fedex a letter from the US to Denmark it reaches the recepient the next day, how do you think that letter got there?)  ... all these networks make world trade easier. Since there is always a profitable opportunity in every transaction that is made, trade is good, and hence world trade is even better.\n\n3. National markets are clearly hard to define anymore. Surely, borders exists between USA and Mexico and USA and Canada, but they are considered as one market nowadays. Think also of the European Union: 25 countries, all different languages and stuff, and still they are one market. A box of cookies in the supermarket has ingredient analysis in 10 languages in Europe.\n\nSo, True. Hard to find a 'national' market anymore.\n\nI hope it helps.

Peter W. the way you talks sucks. Everybody have the right to have his/her own opinion, but you also have to RESPECT others or it is a big or small, rich or pore country and IF.... you can't do that, than you sucks! \nBye the way you have to get the facts clear. Taiwan was first in the UN, not China, Taiwan gave a lot of money to indonesia. Maybe much more than the US if you look to the %  , but Indonesia didn't metion or thank Taiwan like any other country afraid that China got angry.\nI'm not going into the details, because that would be a long story, but what hbj said is true. Hbj you also have to know that the main reason that Taiwan lost the veto seat because Shang Kai Shek and the KMT. They didn't want to share it with china. Now china got the seat and Taiwan has nothing. \nWhat Peter w. said about the government is also true. I live now 4 years in Taiwan and I can not say that I see much good in 4 years. Indeed they fight often. I'm neutral to al the parties, but I see that the main reason that the politics sucks is the KMT again. They always say no to everything what the government said and don't look or it could help the country. KMT is a very dirty party, with a very big ego and still can’t accept their defeat after 50 years of ruling Taiwan. In the 50 years they ruled Taiwan they HATED China. Everyone who said they want to go back to china or went to china went straight into jail. China was Bad, bad, bad. Now 6 years after they lost power they KISS china's *SS.!!!!!!!!! \nI agree with you that Taiwan deserve more respect from the rest of the world, but than Taiwan have to start first.\nFirst the politics most be taken serious, the second is: if Taiwanese are not interested in the other countries, why other countries should be interested in Taiwan. Why I say this is because when I see the Taiwanese news channels I can tell you that just 2% or 3% of it is foreign news and the rest is pure Local news with many, many political sh*t, sorry I say it this way, but it is.\nMany, many times they don't talk about the new law or political issues, but always making the other party (members) black ect. \nAnyway, after 4 years living in Taiwan, going into the Taiwanese live I figured out Taiwan cannot go back to china. Maybe they have a similar background, but Taiwan developed is own system, politics(good or bad), way of life, culture and have a democratic life. If they have to go back to china it will be the same as Taiwan have to go 50 years back in time.\nTaiwan should get more respect from the world, especially from the US. The US can not use a friend when needed and drop him when not needed.\nI wonder how the world would react if Taiwan had a lot of oil. I bet they would treat Taiwan much better. Do you think the US should attack Iraq if Kuwait didn’t have oil? I don’t think so! \nHBJ I’m sorry to say it, but it is all about money and there is a lot of money in China, so the world is not so interested in Taiwan anymore.....sad, but the truth.\nAnyway Taiwan has mine respect.

The EU doesn't want Turkey in. If they did, Turkey would have been a member many years ago. \n\nI find it strange that the Eastern European States are entering the EU so easily, while Turkey, a very powerful country, that would add much to the EU, is barred from entry.\n\nI am also surprised that the Turks still want to join the EU, it's such an insult to Turkish Pride, I mean, this IS Turkey afterall, the Ex-Ottoman Empire, being insulted by Europeans who refuse it entry into a regional union. \n\nWhen countries like Slovenia get in so quickly and Turkey is left out like that, I'ld look elsewhere for friends.\n\nEurope is confused and hypocritical.\n\nSad sad sad.
