Miti: Withdrawing from TPPA will not bankrupt nation

The ministry, in a statement released on Monday night, said foreign investors could bring the Government to the Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS) for breach of any obligation under the Investment Chapter of TPPA.

However, if Malaysia signs the TPPA, but then decides to withdraw, the protection under the Investment Chapter would be inapplicable to foreign investors.
