As preferential trade agreements are growing in number and depth, assessment of their economic impacts has become more important to inform policy-makers facing a multitude of potential preferential trade agreements. This paper provides novel ex ante estimates of the impacts of two key preferential trade agreements currently negotiated by Indonesia, the largest economy in Southeast Asia. The paper then compares these estimates with those of other preferential trade agreements that Indonesia may negotiate in the future. To that end it, combines a dynamic, multi-country computable general equilibrium model and a microsimulation tool linking the macroeconomic results to household-level welfare. The results suggest that, among the preferential trade agreements considered, the European Union–Indonesia Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (EU-CEPA) is expected to yield the largest gains for Indonesia in income, output, and exports. This result is due to a combination of large expected reductions in trade barriers and a high share of international trade between the partners. These macro effects translate into the highest expected income growth relative to the other preferential trade agreements at every point of the income distribution. However, the gains for the EU-CEPA are proportionately larger for richer households, unlike the other agreements considered. The regressive gains are mainly due to the increase in skill wage premia spurred by the additional demand for skill-intensive sectors, especially services.

VIENNA, 18 February 2021 — The OSCE Representative on Freedom of the Media, Teresa Ribeiro, denounced today the prison sentences handed down to journalists Katerina Andreyeva (Bakhvalova) and Darya Chultsova in Belarus.

On 18 February, the Frunzenskiy District Court of Minsk found Andreyeva and Chultsova, journalists with Belsat TV channel, guilty on charges of organizing and preparing activities that grossly violated the public order, and ordered them into confinement for two years in a penal colony. The journalists were detained while covering a public event in Minsk on 15 November 2020.

“Silencing and imprisoning journalists for doing their job is simply unacceptable. Such a regretful development limits the space for public debate and the citizens’ right to freedom of information and, therefore, damages society as a whole,” Ribeiro said. “I hope that the ruling will be fully overturned on appeal, and I urge the Belarusian authorities to refrain from bringing similar charges against media workers in the future.”

The Representative also reiterated her call to the authorities to reverse the negative trend affecting media freedom and journalists’ safety and bring their policies and practices in compliance with their OSCE commitments.

Earlier, on 16 February, Ribeiro expressed her deep concern about the state of media freedom and freedom of expression in Belarus.
