i messaged you <| sep |> Petition to go fuck yourself . <| sep |> Remember correlation causation . It could be just market forces such as reduced demand from the US , or increased competition from other countries . We are not the only country that export electronics . In general , 2016 has been very bad for global trade with shrinking exports for a lot of countries due to a slowing global economy . But the slowdown in trade is also because there is increasing antiglobalization antitrade rhetoric in the West . For example , the US just pulled out of the TPP , and various countries have slapped tariffs to various products . Ofc , I am not ruling out that it could be Duterte ' s rhetoric but the article at hand don ' t really give us any details .
