Lima, The Gulf Observer: Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto has underscored the critical role of dynamic economic sector participation in achieving growth and prosperity during his keynote address at the APEC CEO Summit in Peru on Thursday.

Amid ongoing global geopolitical tensions, President Prabowo expressed optimism that world leaders would prioritize the common good over conflict. “In the interests of humanity, I believe that the leaders of the great powers of the world will always opt for the common good,” he added.
The APEC CEO Summit brought together prominent business leaders and policymakers from across the Asia-Pacific region to discuss strategies for advancing sustainable growth, innovation, and regional cooperation. President Prabowo’s remarks resonated with calls for stronger collaboration and inclusivity in addressing global challenges.
