He appreciated ministries and sectors for successfully organizing the lead-up events and seminars.

He said the APEC economies’ approval of 7 documents was an important result. Minh said: “We’ve completed three quarters of APEC 2017’s agenda including 6 ministerial meetings and 3 Senior Officials Meetings (SOM). Events organized over the past 9 months have agreed on issues to be discussed at the APEC summit in Da Nang in November. Ministerial meetings have met the expectation.”
