KUALA LUMPUR (AFP): US President Donald Trump will take part Friday (Nov 20) in an Asia-Pacific summit as he continues to reject his election loss, a day after President Xi Jinping used the forum to hail China's growing economic clout.

The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (Apec) gathering, held online this year because of the Covid-19 pandemic, brings together 21 Pacific Rim countries, accounting for about 60 per cent of global GDP.
