英语新闻-APEC 亚太经合组织


The full name of APEC Summit is Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Summit.  APEC is a forum for 21 Pacific Rim member economies that seeks to promote free trade and economic cooperation throughout the Asia-Pacific region. It was established in 1989 in response to the growing interdependence of Asia-Pacific economies and the advent of regional trade blocs in other parts of the world. APEC works to raise living standards and education levels through sustainable economic growth and to foster a sense of community and an appreciation of shared interests among Asia-Pacific countries.

APEC峰会的全称是亚太经济合作组织峰会。亚太经济合作组织(APEC)是环亚洲-太平洋地区的21个经济体成立的论坛,旨在促进自由贸易、加强经济合作。1989年,为了顺应亚太经济越来越高的相互依赖度这一历史潮流,以及应对世界其它地区的区域贸易保护壁垒,亚太经合组织应运而生。APCE旨在亚太地区通过可持续发展提高人们的生活水平和教育程度,培养社区意识,维护共同利益。

 

In January 1989, Australian Prime Minister Bob Hawke called for more effective economic cooperation across the Pacific Rim region. This led to the first meeting of APEC in the Australian capital of Canberra in November, chaired by Australian Foreign Affairs Minister Gareth Evans. Attended by ministers from twelve countries, the meeting concluded with commitments for future annual meetings in Singapore and Korea.

1989年1月,时任澳大利亚总理鲍勃.霍克呼吁在环太平洋地区建立更有效的经济合作形式。由此,当年11月份在澳大利亚首都堪培拉召开了第一次APEC会议,由澳大利亚外交事务大臣加雷斯.埃文斯主持。当时有12个国家参加了会议,并承诺未来在新加坡及韩国召开年度会议。

 

APEC currently has 21 members, including most countries with a coastline on the Pacific Ocean. Members account for approximately 40% of the world’s population, approximately 54% of the world’s gross domestic product and about 44% of world trade. Apart from these member states, there are other countries seeking to join APEC. India has requested membership in APEC, and received initial support from the United States, Japan and Australia. In addition to India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Macau, Mongolia, Laos, Cambodia, Costa Rica, Colombia, Panama, and Ecuador, are among a dozen countries seeking membership in APEC.

APEC目前有21个成员国,包含了环太平洋地区的大部分国家。21个成员国占据了全世界大约40%的人口,大约54%的国内生产总值,以及约44%的世界贸易总额。除了这些成员国之外,还有其它国家在寻求加入。印度已经提交了申请要加入APEC并且获得了美国、日本和澳大利亚的初期支持。除了印度,另外还有巴基斯坦、孟加拉国、斯里兰卡、澳门、蒙古、老挝、柬埔寨、哥斯达黎加、哥伦比亚、巴拿马以及厄瓜多尔等10多个国家在寻求加入APEC组织。


The location of the meeting rotates annually among the member economies, and a famous tradition, followed for most (but not all) summits, involves the attending leaders dressing in a national costume of the host country. APEC carries out work in three main areas: 1. Trade and Investment Liberalization. 2. Business Facilitation. 3. Economic and Technical Cooperation.

会议的召开地点每年在成员国内轮流更换,其中有一个著名的传统,就是当年参会国的领导人都会身穿东道主国家的传统服装出席峰会。APEC峰会的工作范围主要涉及三个领域:第一,贸易和投资自由化;第二,商业简易化;第三,经济和技术合作。

 

APCE Summit first came to China in 2001 when Shanghai held the 13th APEC Summit and the 2014 APEC Summit held in Beijing currently is the 26th summit. In the next three years, it will be held in Philippine capital Manila, Peru’s capital Lima, and Hanoi in Vietnam.

2001年APEC峰会第一次来到中国,在上海召开了第13次APEC峰会,此次在首都北京举办的2014年APCE峰会是第26届。另外,未来三年的峰会将分别在菲律宾首都马尼拉、秘鲁首都利马和越南首都河内举行。
