The Philippines may not substantially benefit from a free trade agreement (FTA) with Australia and New Zealand, according to Riza Bernabe, a research fellow of Centro Saka Inc., a non-government organization.


Bernabe, who recently conducted a study of the country’s bilateral and trade commitments, pointed out that, it is not tariff that is preventing Philippine products from entering Australia and New Zealand. It is the imposition of stringent phytosanitary measures.
