With a combined population of 2.9 billion, the 21 APEC economies account for over 60 percent of the world&#8217;s total gross domestic product (GDP) and about half of world trade.<\/p>\n<p>APEC is working on areas such as trade and investment liberalization, business facilitation, and economic and technical cooperation, aiming to achieve sustainable growth and prosperity in the <span class=\"xn-location\">Asia-Pacific<\/span> region.<\/p>\n<p>In the latest Regional Economic Outlook Report for <span class=\"xn-location\">Asia<\/span> and Pacific, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) lowered its growth forecasts for the <span class=\"xn-location\">Asia-Pacific<\/span> region to 4 percent this year and 4.3 percent next year, by 0.9 and 0.8 percentage points, respectively, from its April forecasts.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the growth cut, <span class=\"xn-location\">Asia<\/span> remains a relatively bright spot in an increasingly dimming global economy, said <span class=\"xn-person\">Krishna Srinivasan<\/span>, director of the IMF&#8217;s <span class=\"xn-location\">Asia<\/span> and Pacific Department.<\/p>\n<p><b><span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> committed to regional partnerships<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Since joining APEC 31 years ago, <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> has been firmly committed to regional partnerships and free trade and investment, making significant contributions to a multilateral trading system and an open world economy.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> will work with other parties on the full and high-quality implementation of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP),&#8221; Xi told the APEC meeting.<\/p>\n<p>The country will continue working toward joining the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) and the Digital Economy Partnership Agreement (DEPA), he added.<\/p>\n<p>The RCEP, the world&#8217;s largest free trade deal, covers 10 member states of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations and its five free-trade agreement partners: <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span>, <span class=\"xn-location\">Japan<\/span>, the Republic of Korea, <span class=\"xn-location\">Australia<\/span> and <span class=\"xn-location\">New Zealand<\/span>. <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> was among the first to ratify the RCEP agreement last year.<\/p>\n<p>Both the RCEP and CPTPP are believed to be viable pathways toward the wider Free Trade Area of the <span class=\"xn-location\">Asia-Pacific<\/span> (FTAAP), which the 21 APEC members aim to establish.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> will consider holding the third Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation next year to provide fresh impetus for the development and prosperity of the <span class=\"xn-location\">Asia-Pacific<\/span> and the world, according to the Chinese president.<\/p>\n<p>Echoing the theme of the 2022 APEC, <span class=\"xn-location\">Beijing<\/span> has promised a high-standard opening up with the fifth China International Import Expo in <span class=\"xn-location\">Shanghai<\/span> yielding great results earlier this month.<\/p>\n<p>Tentative deals with a total worth of <span class=\"xn-money\">$73.5 billion<\/span> were reached during the import-themed event, a testament to <span class=\"xn-location\">China&#8217;s<\/span> gigantic market and numerous business opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>As the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span> last month set the blueprint for the country&#8217;s development for now and beyond, the president also stressed that <span class=\"xn-location\">Beijing<\/span> will advance a broader agenda of opening up across more areas and in greater depth.<\/p>\n<p>He underlined that following the Chinese path to modernization, the country will build new systems for &#8220;a higher-standard open economy,&#8221; and share development opportunities with the world, particularly with the <span class=\"xn-location\">Asia-Pacific<\/span> region.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.cgtn.com\/news\/2022-11-18\/China-stresses-Asia-Pacific-community-in-addressing-global-challenges-1f3LalyTRGU\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/news.cgtn.com\/news\/2022-11-18\/China-stresses-Asia-Pacific-community-in-addressing-global-challenges-1f3LalyTRGU\/index.html<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BEIJING, Nov. 19, 2022 \/PRNewswire\/ &#8212; With the theme of &#8220;Open, Connect, Balance,&#8221; the 29th APEC Economic Leaders&#8217; Meeting kicked off on Friday, in Bangkok, which is the first such in-person meeting since 2018.
