That is where Pacific Rim trade and the TPP come in. A firm in Thailand, the Philippines, or Vietnam can develop a new product line by plugging into the huge East Asian value chain and producing, for example, a tiny component which, along with myriad other components, will be assembled into a smartphone at a factory in China.
环太平洋贸易和TPP的作用就在这里。泰国、菲律宾或越南的企业可以通过加入巨大的东亚价值链开发新生产线并生产（比如）某个小部件，然后与其他大量部件一起在中国的工厂组装成智能手机。
