Thanks tomo and kayode--
And CC has been partnering with several orgs on opposition to TPP--
after the announcement that the TPP had been agreed upon wikileaks released the final text (which had been secret up until that point): https://www.wikileaks.org/tpp-ip3/

Hi Yussuf.
CC Japan has long been involved in advocacy related to
TPP's copyright clauses. And CC HQ at one point agreed
with the basic points. We did NOT support or oppose TPP as a
whole, but we did oppose the lack of transparency in the
negotiation process, and copyright clauses we saw in the
leaked texts (mostly in relation to their presumed effects on
Japanese culture and society).
I don't know if the endorsement of the CC HQ is published,
but a statement issued by CC Japan and its partners for this
advocacy campaign is available at:
