Abu Dhabi Crown Prince arrives in South Korea for APEC Forum

WAM

His Highness Sheikh Khaled bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, has arrived in South Korea on Thursday to attend the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Forum.

He will be leading the delegation on behalf of UAE President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan.

The UAE’s participation at the forum follows an invitation from South Korea's President Lee Jae-Myung in efforts to support economic cooperation among APEC economies and explore opportunities to broaden strategic partnerships across key sectors.

The APEC Forum, established in 1989, brings together leaders and heads of government from its 21 member economies to promote regional economic integration by advancing free trade, encouraging investment and achieving sustainable development objectives.

APEC members represent approximately 40 per cent of the world’s population and about 60 per cent of global GDP, establishing the forum as a vital platform for regional cooperation in tackling global economic challenges.
