HANOI, June 28 (Xinhua): The Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) trade pact, once signed, will act as a meaningful symbol of trade liberalization and multilateralism, not only in the region but also in the world, said a Vietnamese scholar.

Vo Tri Thanh, former deputy head of Vietnam's Central Institute for Economic Management, told Xinhua in a recent interview that the current progress of concluding the mega free trade agreement demonstrated the firm commitment of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) and its partners to upholding an open, inclusive and rule-based multilateral trading system.
