[Title] => Gov’t seeks Japan commitment to invest in RP automotive sector
[Summary] => The government is seeking Japan commitment to invest in the local automotive sector under the Japan-Philippines Economic Partnership Agreement (JPEPA).
Trade Undersecretary Elmer Hernandez said over the weekend that the Philippines wants Japan to commit to invest heavily in the local automotive industry comparable to the investments it is pouring into Thailand.
The government has already complained to Japan that the Philippines needs more investments since it continues to struggle to grow the local automotive sector, while Thailand is already way ahead.

[Title] => Japan wants zero tariff on automotive exports to RP
[Summary] => Japan wants the government to immediately reduce to zero tariffs on automotive exports to the Philippines once the Japan-Philippines Economic Partnership Agreement (JPEPA) takes effect.
But Trade and Industry Secretary Peter B. Favila said yesterday the Philippines is only willing to effect a phased tariff reduction over a five-year period.
"The automotive issue is one of four issues holding up the completion of the JPEPA," Favila said.
The three other thorny issues are the movement of natural persons, trade in goods and trade in services.
