                    [Title] => Asean-Korea FTA nears completion
                    [Summary] => A free trade agreement between ASEAN and Korea is nearing completion, according to Philippine Trade and Industry Secretary Peter B. Favila.


According to Favila, an ASEAN-Korea FTA (AKFTA) may be reached sooner than earlier expected following Korea’s decision to extend more concessions to ASEAN members.

The Philippines, itself, according to Favila now appears amenable to fast-tracking the AKFTA.

Earlier, the Philippines had expressed some doubts about the AKFTA, fearing that it may have no substantial benefit from the proposed agreement.
