JAKARTA - President Joko Widodo (Jokowi) left for Thailand. The head of state is scheduled to attend the 29th Asian-Pacific Economic Cooperation Leaders Meeting or APEC in Bangkok, 18-19 November 2022.

President Jokowi and his entourage headed to Thailand from Bali's Ngurah Rai VVIP Airport on Thursday 17 November afternoon.

"I and the First Lady and a limited delegation will depart for Bangkok, Thailand. I will attend a series of APEC Summit meetings until tomorrow Friday, November 18, 2022," Jokowi said before departure, quoted from Antara.

Jokowi said the APEC Summit was the last series of summits after the ASEAN Summit and the G20 Summit.

Indonesia's main focus in the APEC Summit, said Jokowi, is to encourage an inclusive and sustainable economy. "In principle, leave no one behind," he added.

The President emphasized that the digital transformation of the green economy and downstreaming is Indonesia's priority at APEC this year. He said that representing almost 3 billion people in the world and 60 percent of the world's GDP, APEC must continue to be the engine of Asia Pacific's economic growth.

"I will return to Indonesia, God willing, 18 November evening," he said.
