: The theme of the 31st Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Economic Leaders’ Week 2024, “Empower, Include, Grow”, aligns with ASEAN’s 2025 theme of “Inclusivity and Sustainability” which Malaysia will chair next year.
“We’ve seen the two economic superpowers having challenges as well, which can impact economic cooperation and integration. , this is why we have platforms such as APEC as they allow us to discuss issues and challenges that we face together,” he said. “For us, what we want to see for a small country like Malaysia, a Western trading nation, we want to see economies become more integrated because we believe integration promotes inclusivity.
The region is home to 680 million people and is growing at a rate of four per cent to five per cent. At this pace, ASEAN is on track to become the fourth-largest economic bloc in the world by 2030.
