SINGAPORE has chosen growth and integration as the themes of the meetings of the 21-member Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (Apec) grouping in what is sure to be a busy year as they battle the global economic crisis.
As the chairman and host of this year's meetings, Singapore unveiled the theme on Wednesday as 'Sustaining growth, Connecting the region'.
