In opening up access to 15 countries in the Asia-Pacific, RCEP will bring tremendous opportunities to those manufacturers and producers that I've mentioned. It will cover trade in goods, trade in services, investment, economic and technical cooperation, intellectual property, competition, and dispute settlement. It also recognises ASEAN as an emerging regional economic architecture. While the great nation of India is not currently a signatory, we stand willing and ready to welcome them if and when they wish.
