The recent APEC meeting was
held last Nov. 18-19 at Philippine International Convention Centre in Pasay
City, with the foremost theme of “Building Inclusive Economies, Building a
Better World.” It also focuses on advancing and inclusive growth in the
Asia-Pacific region. Its goal in promoting growth in our country is divided
into 3 parts: domestic/national, regional and macro levels. The priorites of
the APEC week were investing in human capital development, developing small and
medium enterprises’ (SMEs) participation in regional and global market,
building strong communities and enhancing the regional economic integration
agenda. An issue which is relevant to me would be the problem of Corruption. We
have unfortunately been facing this together as a country, because of the
dishonest leaders the majority has chosen. The set of leaders usually bribe the
ones stricken with poverty by giving them money to vote for them. As a Junior
student, I believe that on APEC CHALLENGES, VIS-A-VIS; FREEDOM AND CONSCIENCE
(Term 2)
