APEC, nothing more than a class meeting 分類なし
I agree with this article, for your ref.>"APEC's purpose is missing"
What is expected about APEC? What intention 21 APEC member countries' leaders had in mind in prior to come and attend APEC meeting? What was talked, and what was achieved in APEC? To begin with, what is the raison detre of APEC?
It seems to me that the existence of APEC is meaningless, or rather wasting of money and time.
It is reported that the "North Korean issue" was raised in APEC meeting, for your ref.>"APEC summit takes up North Korea nuke issue, Abe seeks speedier efforts"
I agree that "resolution of the North Korean nuclear and missile issues is indispensable for regional peace and stability."
I also agree that North Korea should sincerely cooperate with Japan to resolve the abduction issue of Japanese nationals in 1960s and '70s, for your ref.>"Perseverance in talks"
But even so, are there any concrete good effects in raising the North Korean issue in APEC? The answer is "No!."
Anyway, when it comes to North Korean issue, South Korea's mad President Roh Moo Hyun as usually acted extraordinarily in the bilateral meeting with the U.S. President George W. Bush, for your ref.>"盧大統領の催促にいら立つブッシュ大統領" & "韓米首脳会談：盧大統領が米大統領に挑戦＝WP紙" & "盧−ブッシュ APEC共同会見の"誤解と真実""
As usual, Japan's mass media wouldn't report the truth about this mad president and South Korea. But there is no problem.
Nowadays we can collect information via Internet, especially on the Japanese editions of the South Korean mass media, to realize the truth.
At least, we Japanese should realize that the current South Korean president is "mad," and South Korea is so fanatic anti-Japan cultic country that "Japan-South Korea friendship" is nothing more than a daydream.
Anyway, the summit declaration refers to, avoiding by name of China, the regional voluntarily making of rules about food safety issue.
Indeed, danger of not only food but also various goods exported from China are causing troubles around the world, for your ref.>"Chinese 'matsutake' sales implode"
Even though I agree that food safety issue should be properly handled by Beijing, there is not substantial meaning in raising in APEC that has an authority to apply neither embargo nor sanction.
APEC also referred to the global warming issue, and I agree that the climate change is one of the most serious threat humans are now facing.
But again, I think there is no substantial meaning in raising this issue in APEC. For example, can we expect that the APEC Declaration can change the US. position on this issue?
Unfortunately, I disagree. When it comes to the climate change issue, we can see the U.S. true intention in this article, for your ref.>"U.S. almost cut Japan from '05 climate plan"
After all, are there any significant achievements that 21 leaders gathered in Australia to hold summit meeting for two day? I disagree.
There was neither specific purpose nor practical achievement. 21 leaders talked about vogue general affairs. To begin with APEC has so specific raison detre so that it was nothing more than a junior high school class meeting.
No, I made a mistake. APEC has a crucial raison detre -- taking commemorative picture of participated leaders.
For your ref.>「APEC in Australia, A paradoxical summit
