Several bilateral agreements have been signed with some countries in the past decade, and the experience has been fairly successful. Actually, it is easier to achieve a successful marriage of two than a marriage of 12. If there are 12 parties, and we are able to sign the agreement, all the better, but the fact is that the Trans-Pacific Partnership Agreement has yet to be signed.
If it isn't signed, will we opt for a bilateral agreement with countries that interest us?
