BANGKOK, Nov. 18 (Xinhua) -- Leaders of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) economies started their annual meeting here on Friday to pursue balanced, inclusive and sustainable growth across the region and beyond.

It is the first in-person meeting of the APEC economic leaders since 2018, as the world is facing multiple challenges of rising inflation, heightened geopolitical tensions, climate change and prolonged COVID-19 pandemic.

The meeting was chaired by Thai Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha under the theme of "Open, Connect, Balance."
