Dear Minister,

I have the honour to acknowledge receipt of your letter of this date, which reads follows:

“In connection with the signing on this date of the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (the “Agreement”), I have the honour to confirm that the Government of the Socialist Republic of Viet Nam (“Viet Nam”) and the Government of Brunei Darussalam (“Brunei Darussalam") shared understanding on electronic commerce as follows:

Both countries shall continue consultation on cooperation for the implementation of the Cyber Security Law of Viet Nam or related legislation concerning cyber security with a view to ensuring consistency with the Agreement

Notwithstanding paragraph 2 of Article 14.18 (Dispute Settlement) of Chapter 14 (Electronic Commerce) of the Agreement, Brunei Darussalam shall refrain from seeking recourse to Chapter 28 (Dispute Settlement) of the Agreement with respect to measures adopted or maintained based on the Cyber Security Law of Viet Nam or related legislation concerning cyber security, which is in violation of the obligation based on Article 14.11 (Cross-Border Transfer of Information by Electronic Means) and Article 14.13 (Location of Computing Facilities) of Chapter 14 (Electronic Commerce) of the Agreement for a period of five years after the date of entry into force of this Agreement for Viet Nam.
