On November 17th, the 2023 APEC Leaders' Informal Meeting concluded in San Francisco, United States. The meeting issued the "2023 San Francisco Declaration of APEC Leaders" (referred to as the "San Francisco Declaration"). On November 19th, the RCEP Industrial Cooperation Committee held an expert symposium and exchange meeting in Beijing. Xu Ningning, Chairman of the RCEP Industrial Cooperation Committee, Xu Liping, Researcher at the Asia Pacific and Global Strategy Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, Luo Yongkun, Deputy Director of the Southeast Asia and Oceania Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Modern International Relations, Lv Kejian, Vice President of the National Japan Economic Society, and Song Junying, Director of the Latin American and Caribbean Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of International Studies, all attended the meeting, fully recognizing the significant significance of this APEC Leaders' Informal Meeting, And relevant analysis and suggestions were proposed. On November 19th, the RCEP Industrial Cooperation Committee held an expert symposium and exchange meeting in Beijing. Huang Fang interpreted the 2023 APEC Leaders' San Francisco Declaration as saying that implementing the San Francisco Declaration will benefit the Asia Pacific economy. He pointed out that the San Francisco Declaration reflects the major concerns and needs of all parties involved in current economic development and cooperation, reflects the world development trend, and the implementation of the Declaration "will be beneficial to the economic growth of the Asia Pacific region". On November 19th, Xu Ningning, Chairman of the RCEP Industrial Cooperation Committee, delivered a speech at the symposium. This meeting reflects that the Asia Pacific region continues to be the most dynamic region for global economic growth, "said Xu Ningning. He believes that over the past 30 years since the establishment of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC), its mechanism has been constantly mature and its role has been expanding. APEC has become the" most realistic choice "for cooperation and development among countries in the region today. At the same time, Xu Ningning proposed six suggestions on how to implement the actions of all parties and better translate the San Francisco Declaration from text into practical results after the APEC Conference, including that business communities outside the Asia Pacific region should seek business opportunities in the San Francisco Declaration; Enhancing cultural and cultural exchanges; Creating a favorable social environment for economic cooperation and development; And implementing the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (RCEP) to build it into the largest free trade zone in the world today. APEC brings a new 'strategic opportunity period' to the Asia Pacific, "Xu Liping believes that the main highlight of this APEC meeting is to promote organizational structural reform. Xu Liping stated that the main issue facing the current international situation is the suspension of dispute resolution mechanisms. For example, the "blockade" imposed by the United States on Chinese chips actually violates the relevant rules of the World Trade Organization (WTO). And APEC can establish institutional guarantees to prevent "decoupling and chain breaking" in the Asia Pacific region, effectively binding on all parties. On November 19th, Xu Liping, a researcher at the Asia Pacific and Global Strategic Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, delivered a speech at a symposium. I think this is very important. On the occasion of the 30th anniversary of the establishment of the APEC informal meeting mechanism, continuing to promote trade and investment liberalization and facilitation will help to revitalize the WTO
