Beijing may join TPP, although this will take time, sources say
China is becoming "positive" toward the US-led Asia- Pacific free trade agreement, saying it may join the Trans-Pacific Partnership, although it will take time to do so, according to sources at the Ministry of Commerce.
"China is still doing its research (on the TPP)," said a source close to the issue.
