Question
Which of the following players could be expected to be affected negatively if the TPP comes into effect immediately?
Answer: Option C
:
C
The state owned companies in Vietnam want to protect their fiefdoms and continue enjoying the subsidies but will not have the clout to push back once the TPP puts an end to their privileges. So they stand to lose once TPP comes into effect. The immediate effect on American pharma majors is neither discussed in the passage nor can it be inferred. They are only pushing for a 12 year data-exclusivity term on Biologics. The small scale manufacturers of Vietnam may benefit from TPP but its definite effect on them cannot be predicted based on the information provided in the passage.
