Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation or APEC is a leading forum that promotes trade, investment, economic growth, and regional cooperation. Its 21 member Pacific Rim economies account for almost half of the world’s trade, nearly 40% of the global population, and about 60% of the world’s GDP. 

Joining the discussion: 

• Joo-Ok Lee is the Head of the World Economic Forum’s Asia Pacific Agenda
• Wang Huiyao is the Founder and President of the Center for China and Globalization. 
• Yan Liang is a Chair Professor in Economics at Willamette University.
• Diego Macera serves as Director of the Peruvian Institute of Economics and the Central Reserve Bank of Peru.

The #Chancay Port, an important cooperation project in #Peru under the China-proposed Belt and Road Initiative (#BRI), will help Peru become a vital hub for international trade in the region, analysts said. https://t.co/j2YDvQeQ8b pic.twitter.com/Re2EjnaVgA
