The 30th APEC Leaders' Informal Meeting is about to be held in San Francisco, USA. The director of Thailand China "the Belt and Road" Research Center in Thailand, Willem Pachaun Paddy, said in an exclusive interview with Xinhua News Agency recently that he expected all parties to deepen solidarity and cooperation and inject new impetus into the economic growth of Asia Pacific and the world. Weilun stated that over the past 30 years since its establishment, the APEC has become an important economic cooperation platform in the Asia Pacific region, playing a positive role in supporting the multilateral trading system, promoting the construction of an open world economy, and leading economic globalization. Against the backdrop of sluggish global economic recovery, we hope that all parties can adhere to open cooperation, promote the construction of a peaceful, stable, inclusive and open Asia Pacific region, and make a "contribution to Asia Pacific" to global sustainable development. Willen pointed out that the Asia Pacific region is currently the most dynamic and promising region for growth and development in the world. The International Monetary Fund predicts that the annual economic growth rate of the Asia Pacific region is expected to reach 4.6% this year, which will contribute about two-thirds to world economic growth, indicating that the Asia Pacific region remains an important engine of world economic growth. In Wellen's view, as the world's second largest economy and the largest developing country, China plays an important role in economic cooperation in the Asia Pacific region. China is the largest trading partner of the vast majority of economies in the Asia Pacific region. China's unwavering promotion of high-level openness provides mutually beneficial opportunities for economic and trade cooperation among all parties, which is also the cornerstone of peace and prosperity in the Asia Pacific region, "he said. Willen stated that most of the Asia Pacific region is a developing country, and their voices have long been ignored in the Western led globalization process. However, over the past decade, China's initiative to jointly build the "the Belt and Road" has benefited the world, with cooperation projects all over the world. Infrastructure construction and scientific and technological innovation cooperation have brought hope to developing countries, and Chinese path to modernization exploration has provided new ideas for developing countries. Thailand has always attached great importance to the application of green energy. In recent years, a large number of Chinese new energy vehicle brands have invested and built factories in Thailand, bringing Thailand technology and management experience in the field of new energy vehicles, and gradually developing Thailand into a manufacturing center for new energy vehicles in Southeast Asia, "he said. Speaking of the upcoming China US dollar summit, Wellen stated that peace and cooperation between China and the United States are crucial and in line with the common interests of both countries and the world. He hopes that the China US dollar summit can promote global peace, stability, and sustainable development. (New News Agency)
