China will have a key role to play at a meeting of leaders from the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC), said a Peruvian official, whose country is hosting the 2016 APEC Economic Leaders' Week on Nov. 14-20.
"China is going to have an important role, and is going to continue to have an increasingly important role," Julio Chan Sanchez, coordinator general of the meeting, told Xinhua in a recent interview.
As one of the world's leading economies, China's decisions necessarily impact not just the 21-member group, but the entire globe, said Chan of Peru's Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism.
"China's economy is progressively larger, more important and more relevant for the rest of the world, for international trade and for the global economic system," he said.
As such, China's participation serves to strengthen the forum, he added.
At the 2014 meeting held in Beijing, China played an essential role in furthering the goal of creating a free-trade zone in the Asia-Pacific region, said Chan.
A study of APEC's impact on Pacific Rim nations, commissioned by the member economies, is expected to be approved at the November gathering and published later this year, according to Chan.
"China is contributing quite a lot with a series of measures to improve capacities, and while they mainly aim to strengthen the public sector, they also sometimes extend to private sector officials," providing training in relevant areas, said Chan.
