OBS

The Pacific Economic Cooperation Council(PECC) was formed in 1980 following the Pacific Community Seminar in Canberra, Australia. It was attended by 11 economies(Australia, Canada, Indonesia, Malaysia, Japan, Korea, New Zealand, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and the US), and the Pacific Island Nations. The Seminar called for the establishment of an independent, regional mechanism to advance economic cooperation and market-driven integration. A vital characteristics of the new body, asserted there, was its independent, unofficial status which would permit it to address economic issues and measures free from constraints of formal governmental policies and relationships. It, hence, agreed on the need for an informal process involving business and independent research institutions alongside governments. PECC is the only non-governmental official observer of APEC since the APEC' s formation in 1989. PECC has provided information and analytical support to APEC ministerial meetings and working groups. Also it channels and facilitates private sector participation in the formal process.
