Free Trade Agreement – Asia:

-Current trends towards Free trade in Asia as well as in China / US relations.

Online business is based on the free flow of information as well as goods and transactions, without much regard for national borders which seem artificial in comparison. The world market nevertheless has its points of constriction, and these are usually found in customs tariffs and import duties. For an international distributor, or a company working with global distribution, these regulations and taxes are an extra cost and a burden that could easily be dispensed with. But progress on a free trade agreement between the US, the EU, China, and Japan seems far away at best. It is said that multinational enterprise favors free trade unequivocally, but governments bow to the protectionist influence to protect domestic markets with a strongly organized political force.

For developing an import opportunity, outsourcing manufacturing to China, or import from China, it is not necessary to have a complete free trade system to operate, as the system is working well now despite the tariffs and duties. But it is the principle of freedom that is most important in free trade. A wholesale supplier will pay a percentage of profits to customs and taxes as necessary, but suppliers online are only forced to pay this when their products cross trans-national borders. Import from China is not so expensive that way, but the free trade system will improve the process for businessmen. Censorship in China of the internet is also related to free trade if we consider the “Information Technology” and free flow of information is restricted through censorship, it is related to a restriction in the trade of information. The US and the EU seem far away from approaching a free trade agreement with China, but the ASEAN nations seem ready to implement a South East Asia Free trade Zone within the next five to ten years. This may be a base to work from to link Free trade Zones from the EU, Americas, and Asia in the near future.
