BEYOND BUDGET by Amenah F. Pangandaman, DBM Secretary I am honored to have joined the Philippine delegation led by President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. (PBBM) to the 2023 Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Economic Leaders' Week (AELW) last Nov. 14 to 17 in San Francisco, California. APEC, as you may know, is one of the most important regional economic forums, bringing together 21 member economies to better facilitate trade and investment, economic growth, and regional cooperation. In its 30th year, with United States (US) as chair, over 1,200 global CEOs and 30,000 delegates from businesses and organizations around the world, aside from the heads of state of member economies, gathered for the AELW to discuss policy priorities. Themed "Creating a resilient and sustainable future for all", discussions focused on interconnectivity, innovation, and inclusivity. |
