(VOVWORLD) -Over nearly three decades, cooperation of APEC member economies has brought benefits to the Asia-Pacific region, and each member economy has contributed to APEC's common goals of building a dynamic, harmonious and self-reliant Asian-Pacific community.
Dr. Desra Percaya, Director General for Asia-Pacific and Africa Affairs under the Indonesian Foreign Ministry, made the statement in an interview with Vietnam News Agency.
He said Indonesia supports APEC Vietnam 2017 priorities under the theme “Creating New Dynamism, Fostering a Shared Future”. The priorities are related to ongoing and emerging challenges today, as well as to APEC’s work to promote growth and regional economic integration.
Vietnam’s initiative to launch the “Action Agenda on Advancing Economic, Financial, and Social Inclusion in the APEC Region” is very much in line with this important priority, he added.
