RELEASE: TISA secret draft covering 2/3rds of global GDP - the #TPP's big brother https://wikileaks.org/tisa/ #TTIP 9:06 PM - 3 Jun 2015

Perkhidmatan mereka "kini menyumbang hampir 80 % peratus daripada Amerika Syarikat dan EU ekonomi," Kumpulan itu berkata, sambil menambah bahawa "walaupun di negara-negara membangun seperti Pakistan [mereka] akaun untuk 53 % peratus daripada ekonomi."
According to WikiLeaks, the economies of the member countries now comprise two-thirds of global GDP. Their services “now account for nearly 80 percent of the US and EU economies,” the group says, adding that “even in developing countries like Pakistan [they] account for 53 percent of the economy.”

Sumber web kata Suruhanjaya Eropah peserta dalam perjanjian itu, yang ditetapkan "untuk meliberalisasikan perdagangan dalam perkhidmatan," "akaun untuk 70 % peratus daripada perdagangan dunia dalam perkhidmatan." Yang"perbincangan adalah berdasarkan kepada cadangan yang dibuat oleh para peserta," EU sumber menambah, dengan mengatakan bahawa "TiSA bertujuan untuk membuka pasaran dan memperbaiki kaedah-kaedah" dalam beberapa bidang, termasuk perkhidmatan kewangan, pengangkutan dan e-dagang.
Beberapa negara di DUNIA, termasuk semua negara-negara BRICS - Brazil, Rusia, India, China, dan Afrika Selatan - tidak termasuk dalam rundingan TiSA, yang bertujuan untuk memberi manfaat kepada ekonomi global.
Pelepasan bocor 17 dokumen pada hari Rabu adalah "terbesar di rahsia dokumen TiSA" dan bangsal cahaya pada "banyak kawasan yang sebelum ini tidak didedahkan." Ia termasuk draf dan ‘annexes’ mengenai isu-isu seperti perkhidmatan trafik udara, peraturan tempatan, perkhidmatan telekomunikasi dan ketelusan, dengan dokumen-dokumen yang berasal dari Februari 2013 hingga Februari 2015. Kertas kerja hendak dirahsiakan sehingga sekurang-kurangnya 5 tahun selepas selesai rundingan Tisa dan kemasukan perjanjian perdagangan itu berkuat kuasa.
Berkata bahawa kebocoran "mengukuhkan kebimbangan kempen tentang ancaman yang TiSA menimbulkan kepada perkhidmatan awam amat penting," Nick Dearden, pengarah Keadilan Global Sekarang, berkata "tidak ada mandat bagi apa-apa program yang meluas."
"Ini adalah hari yang gelap untuk demokrasi apabila kita bergantung kepada kebocoran seperti ini untuk orang ramai dimaklumkan mengenai penyusunan semula radikal rangka kerja kawal selia yang kerajaan kita mencadangkan," kata Dearden dalam satu kenyataan pada Rabu.
The European Commission web source says the participants in the agreement, which is set“to liberalize trade in services,” “account for 70 percent of world trade in services.” The “talks are based on proposals made by the participants,” the EU source adds, saying that“TiSA aims at opening up markets and improving rules” in a number of areas, including financial services, transport and e-commerce.
A number of the world's economies, including all the BRICS countries – Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa – are excluded from the TiSA negotiations, which purport to benefit the global economy.
The release of the 17 leaked documents on Wednesday is “the largest on secret TISA documents” and sheds light on “numerous previously undisclosed areas.” It includes drafts and annexes on such issues as air traffic services, domestic regulation, telecommunications services and transparency, with documents dating from February 2013 to February 2015. The papers were to be kept secret until at least five years after the completion of the TiSA negotiations and the trade agreement's entry into force.
Saying that the leaks “reinforce the concerns of campaigners about the threat that TiSA poses to vital public services,” Nick Dearden, director of Global Justice Now, said “there is no mandate for such a far-reaching program.”
“It's a dark day for democracy when we are dependent on leaks like this for the general public to be informed of the radical restructuring of regulatory frameworks that our governments are proposing,”Dearden said in a statement on Wednesday.

The Wednesday leak follows the publication of similar documents relating to TiSA negotiations in 2014. In a statement then published by WikiLeaks alongside the draft of a 19-page document, the group said that“proponents of TiSA aim to further deregulate global financial services markets.”
The agreement is part of the strategic “T-treaty trinity”: the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP), TiSA, and the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP). It complements the other two global trade agreements dealing with goods and investments, which are all currently being negotiated in secret. TiSA is believed to be the largest component of the three.
On Tuesday, WikiLeaks announced its intent to raise $100,000 to be used as a reward for the remaining chapters of the TPP trade deal. The whistleblowing platform has previously leaked TPP chapters, including sections on intellectual property rights, the environment, and investment. In appealing for funding, the group said access to the lacking chapters is “America's most-wanted secret.”
