LIMA - Representatives from the 21 member economies of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Forum (APEC) met Saturday to outline the agenda for an upcoming high-level meeting in Peru.
The second meeting of top APEC officials is set to take place on May 15 in the southern region of Arequipa.
Subjects they outlined for debate include food security, fishing, free-trade agreements, global value chains in trade and human resources development for people with disabilities.
The APEC delegations also toured a fair designed to offer small- and medium-sized companies a guide to registration, so that they can pay taxes and expand through loans and credits otherwise not available to smaller firms.
Policies to be mooted at the meeting will be studied by leaders of APEC economies at their November meeting in Lima.
