DESCRIPTION:The 28th Pacific Economic Community Seminar\n“TPP and RCEP: Eme
 rging Dual-Track Pathways towards FTAAP”\nOrganizers: Chinese Taipei Pacif
 ic Economic Cooperation Committee (CTPECC)\nTaiwan Institute of Economic R
 esearch (TIER)\nNovember 13-14\, 2013\nRegent Taipei  \n&nbsp\;\nIntroduct
 ion\nThe regional economic integration (REI) has long been recognized as o
 ne of the most important issues for Asia-Pacific economies\, as REI accele
 rates reducing trade barriers and creating a favorable business environmen
 t. In the region of Asia-Pacific\, the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) and
  the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) have been identifi
 ed as two potential REI pathways to achieve the ultimate goal of the Free 
 Trade Area of Asia-Pacific (FTAAP). At the emergence of the two pathways s
 ome key questions has been increasingly addressed. Are these two tracks in
  competition or complementation? How can TPP and RCEP converge to progress
  further? Are there potential impacts caused by the TPP and RCEP on member
 s or non-members? How can members\, possible members and non-members addre
 ss the impacts?\nTo seek answers for those questions\, the Chinese Taipei 
 Pacific Economic Cooperation Committee (CTPECC) and Taiwan Institute of Ec
 onomic Research (TIER) would like to cordially invite opinion leaders in o
 ur region to share their distinguished views and exchange ideas with repre
 sentatives from business\, government and academic circles in Chinese Taip
 ei.\n\n\n\n\nWednesday\, November 13\n\n\n\n\n0830-0920\n\n\nRegistration
