"加國最重要的兩大媒體National Post和The Globe and Mai更是相繼刊出評論,表示應該廢除老杜魯道的「一個中國」政策,承認台灣的獨立國際地位,與台灣建立正式外交關係,隱隱與美國參院委員會近日通過的《2021年戰略競爭法案》(Strategic Competition Act of 2021)相互呼應。"

加拿大超好抓中國滲透戰的肉粽頭--溫哥華:

"庫柏二○一七年開始調查不列顛哥倫比亞省(卑詩省)賭場活動後,發現內部洗錢資金被用來炒作溫哥華房價及進行毒品走私,當地執法官員卻在政治人物施壓下束手無策。其中,許多涉及相關活動的人士,正是常與中國駐溫華哥領事館官員互動、也常與加國政治人物往來的一群人。他指出,中共希望控制海外中國人,以便在各國施展影響力,中共中央統戰部便承擔此一任務。"

書摘點出溫哥華模式已經移植到紐澳發展這點不意外, 真正令人意外的是提及李嘉誠在其中扮演的關鍵開局角色:

"Sam Cooper has uncovered evidence that shows the primary actors in so-called "Vancouver Model" money laundering have effectively made Canada''s west coast a headquarters for corporate and industrial espionage by the CCP. And these ruthless entrepreneurs have used Vancouver and Canada to export their criminal model to other countries around the world including Australia and New Zealand. "

紐西蘭外長顧忌的是: 萬一中國翻臉,會影響到紐中貿易裡佔三成奶肉製品後面的選票...

"馬胡塔坦承,紐西蘭依賴與中國貿易。據紐西蘭外交及貿易部網站公布數據,紐西蘭與中國貿易總額超過紐幣330億元(約新台幣6660億元),其中紐西蘭出口中國所得大約占兩國貿易總額的3成。"

因為澳洲先翻臉,紐西蘭沒法玩繞道澳洲轉出口的貼牌招。但實際是: 肉製品便罷,中國一時很難找到其他長期可靠新鮮的乳製品替代國。紐西蘭沒有像澳洲挺起腰桿,純就是貪財膝蓋軟罷了。

"對外貿易方面,紐西蘭2015年主要出口產品為乳製品及肉製品,主要進口產品為機械及運輸設備等。中國大陸為紐西蘭最大貿易夥伴,2015年紐西蘭主要出口地區包括中國大陸(17.6%)、澳洲(17%)、美國(11.8%)及日本(6.1%)等,主要進口地區包括中國大陸(19.5%)、澳洲(11.9%)、美國(11.8%)及日本(6.6%)等。"

“紐西蘭外交暨貿易部長歐康納(Damien O’Connor)昨天向紐西蘭新聞網站Newshub證實,紐西蘭將會支持澳洲,就中國針對澳洲大麥開徵80%關稅一事向WTO提出申訴。

歐康納解釋,紐西蘭致力捍衛一個「以規則為基礎的貿易體系」(rules-based trading system);因此紐西蘭將會以「第三方」(third party)身分介入澳洲提出的申訴案。”

"A regional deal would unite a group of countries in endorsing common standards and norms, including the principles of openness, inclusiveness, fairness, transparency and “data free flow with trust. It could provide an important jolt for the corresponding slow-moving negotiations in the World Trade Organization (WTO). And, it can get the United States back in the trade game in Asia, while it considers the merits of rejoining the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), albeit with certain revisions and updates.

Developing a digital trade agreement for the Indo-Pacific region would have the advantage of building on the high-standard digital commitments in the CPTPP, drawing on the more recent U.S.-Japan Digital Trade Agreement, the Singapore-Australia Digital Trade Agreement and the Singapore-New Zealand-Chile Digital Economy Partnership Agreement (DEPA)."

"《金融時報》14 日的報導卻看壞台灣加入 CPTPP 的可能,並直言台灣加入的可能已逐漸縮小,最主要的原因就是國內政治因素和及官僚怠惰所導致。台灣政黨對於外國食品開放市場的激烈鬥爭是台灣入會的重大障礙之一。同時,台灣總統蔡英文開放含符合國際標準的瘦肉精美豬進口,遭反對黨杯葛,12 月將對此舉辦公投,貿易官員認為公投將對任何未來貿易談判帶來重大風險。台灣政府也延遲 CPTPP 的入會準備 —— 為符合入會的市場准入標準,台灣必須解除對日本 311 核災區食品進口禁令,允許未受污染的產品進口。然而台灣執政黨官員卻認為,現在採取此舉只會給在野的反對黨添加反市場開放的柴火,使 12 月的公投幾乎篤定過關。"

接下來就是跟藍白正面對決了~

"鄧振中表示,CPTPP涵蓋範圍相當廣泛,包括電子商務、競爭政策、勞工、環境保護、中小企業等,較傳統的經貿協定更廣,未來勢必是引導國際規範的重要力量,台灣也做了很多準備工作,衡量所有情況後,現在是最好時機。

他指出,參加CPTPP是台灣繼加入世界貿易組織(WTO)後,最重要的經貿行為,並以「台澎金馬個別關稅領域」名稱遞交申請。

而遞出申請後,下一步將要與各會員國諮商與談判,目前美國、歐盟已經開放日本福島5縣食品,鄧振中說明,「假如日方提出這問題,我們當然需要面對與處理」,同時強調會在「國民健康維護」、「依據科學根據」、「依據國際規範」下,與日本找出解方。"

韭國有強烈政治動機全力阻撓台灣加入CEPTPP:

"Taiwan’s WTO membership bid was officially approved the day after China was given the same greenlight.

With that precedent in mind, even in a best case scenario – where China doesn’t move to block Taiwan’s participation outright – it’s likely that Beijing would insist upon joining the CPTPP before Taipei. That would frustrate Taiwan, as China’s reform process to meet CPTPP requirements will be much longer (if, indeed, it is willing to undertake the necessary changes). But there’s also a sliver of opportunity there, should the existing CPTPP members make a near-simultaneous acceptance of Taiwan’s bid a necessary condition of China’s own CPTPP membership.

The big question is whether China would agree to allow Taiwan in under any circumstances, given its aggressive stance toward the Tsai administration. If, as some commentators have suggested, China’s bid for CPTPP membership is mostly symbolic and there is no real intent to join, then Beijing would have double the incentive to block Taiwan from acceding to the group."

真的假的?

"原本外界以為拜登上台之後可能會重返該協議,但如今雷蒙多正式表態摧毀了這項希望。

雷蒙多此行與日本建立美日商業與工業夥伴關係,她表示美國與日本可以在供應鏈、晶片短缺、乾淨能源等議題上合作。值得一提的是,雷蒙多也是拜登政府內,負責要求台韓等半導體大廠交出營運資料的官員。 "

咦?之前雷蒙多說的是要用這個TTIC取代CPTPP嗎?

“經濟部表示,本次針對「台美科技貿易暨投資合作架構」(Technology Trade and Investment Collaboration Framework, TTIC)之會談,是近年台美間又再增加的高階官員經貿對話,對台美經貿發展具有指標意義。”
