Leaders representing 60% of the world’s economy should tackle inflation and the energy crisis to promote a post-Covid economic recovery and stem the risk of global recession, regional business executives said.
The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum should also tackle climate change more aggressively, said Kriengkrai Thiennukul, chairman of this year’s APEC Business Advisory Council. The private-sector group, which comprises top executives from the US and other countries and regions, will submit 69 recommendations across five areas to leaders at an annual dialog in Bangkok on Friday.
