    Trade policies in Africa have been studied extensively. Most of the works in this field, however, take the form of overall appraisal of such policies and their effects on the development of the continent as a whole. The aim of the present study is slightly different. It tries to explore and assess the experiences and constraints of African countries in a specific area of trade policy, which is trade remedies (antidumping, countervailing, and safeguards), and subsequently raises the question of the eventual role of these instruments in the backing of industrial policy on the continent. It concludes that trade remedies are important for African countries although many challenges lie ahead on the way to their use by the vast majority of these countries. Some solutions such as regional investigating bodies are proposed as alternatives ways in order to make trade remedies more affordable for African countries.

    A general review of the Philippine-Japan Economic Partnership Agreement (PJEPA or the Agreement) was originally scheduled in December 2011. Accordingly, it was deemed that an assessment on how the Agreement affected the Philippine economy after three years of implementation would be helpful not only for the immediate purposes of the review but also for future negotiating processes. Part of the assessment would be to review Japanese bilateral agreements with other Asian countries to compare the concessions that each country got in relation to that provided for in the Agreement. This is for the Philippines to assess whether to propose revisions to the Agreement in cases where conceivably better concessions were obtained by the other countries. The main objective of this paper is to compare the provisions of the free trade agreements (FTAs) on trade in goods, trade in services, investment, and sanitary and phytosanitary measures that Japan has with other select Asian countries. Those countries are Brunei, India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, and Viet Nam. The results of the comparison will be further compared with the provisions of the PJEPA. The output of the project is a comparative study, including data on the differences and similarities of the provisions of these FTAs, taking into consideration the economic and political environment as rationale for these variations.
