Themed "building inclusive economies, building a better world", this year's APEC meeting will focus on issues like regional economic integration, small- and medium-sized enterprises, human capital development and sustainable growth.
Ahead of the meeting, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi has reached agreements with senior Philippine officials that the APEC will be a trade forum rather than a venue for discussions of the South China Sea issue.
