    Abstract

    "Business Maine: Statewide" piece reporting that nearly 18 percent of Maine jobs are related to international trade, according to a recent study by Business Roundtable, an advocacy group in Washington, D.C. The study says international trade supports 143,359 jobs in Maine, and that free trade agreements since the early 1990s have helped the state compete in foreign markets. Canada remains Maine's top export market, followed by Malaysia and Singapore. The study says Hungary in one of the state's fastest growing business partners.
