KUALA LUMPUR (Xinhua): China will remain the engine of global growth as the world seeks to move past disruptions and uncertainty caused by the pandemic and regional conflicts, a Malaysian observer said ahead of the upcoming Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Leaders' Week 2023.

The Asian giant is a key anchor to stability in the Asia-Pacific region and beyond and an important driver of global economic recovery. Other APEC partners must recognise this fact and offer sincere cooperation if the world is to overcome looming challenges, Koh King Kee, president of the Center for New Inclusive Asia, a non-governmental Malaysian think tank told Xinhua in an interview.
