Established in 1989, the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) is a regional economic forum to promote free trade, economic cooperation, and sustainable growth among countries in the Asia-Pacific region.
The forum currently has 21 member economies, including some of the world’s leading economies such as the United States, China, and Japan, 9 members of the G20, and many dynamic emerging economies. Collectively, these members represent approximately 38% of the world’s population, contribute 61% of global GDP, and account for 47% of global trade.
Vietnam joined APEC in 1998, participating fully in the forum’s economic, trade, and investment cooperation mechanisms. It hosted the APEC Economic Leaders’ Week in Da Nang in 2017, marking a milestone in promoting free trade, digital connectivity, and sustainable development initiatives.
