Q&A

APEC Economic Leaders approved the “APEC Connectivity Framework” in Bali in 2013, pledging to “reach a seamlessly and comprehensively connected and integrated Asia-Pacific through the pillars of physical connectivity, institutional connectivity and people-to-people connectivity”. The 2014 Beijing APEC Economic Leaders’ Meeting endorsed the “APEC Connectivity Blueprint for 2015-2025”. Asia-Pacific Connectivity is not only the prerequisite for realizing the regional economic integration, but also indispensable to revitalizing the economy and promoting the long-term inclusive growth and sustainable development. The APEC agenda in the post 2020 era must be adapted to the new situation of rapid development of digital and information technology. Innovative development based on the digital economy represents the future direction of economic and social development to which the APEC economies should pay enough attention. At the same time, they should also focus on the balanced development of the economy and society and actively advocate the people centered APEC.
