The main legislative organ of UNESCAP is the Commission, which meets annually at the ministerial level and reports to the UN’s Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC). It provides a forum for all Governments of the region to review and discuss eco nomic and social issues and to strengthen regional cooperation. The Advisory Committee of Permanent Representatives and other Representatives Designated by Members of the Commission (ACPR), composed of UNESCAP members and associate mem bers, meets almost every month to advise and exchange views with the Executive Secretary on the Commission’s work. The Commission maintains close cooperation and consultation between the members and the secretariat of the Commission. Three Committees, eight Sub committees and two Special Bodies guide the Commission’s work and make recommendations in accordance with seven subprograms.

(1)The name was changed in 1974 to reflect both the econom ic and social aspects of development and the geographic location of its member countries.

UNESCAP’s mandate was broadened in 1977 by the General Assembly. The regional commissions have since then been the main UN economic and social development centers within the five differ ent regions.

(2)Strengthened by 50 years of experience as a regional think tank, UNESCAP’s activities are more and more concentrated on spreading the growth momentum from its more dynamic member countries to the rest of the region.

The ultimate challenge lies in bringing some 830 million of the region’s poor into the economic mainstream, enabling everybody to achieve a better standard of life as envisaged in the Charter of the United Nations.

Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation, or APEC (см. рис. 13, стр. 249), is the premier forum for facilitating economic growth, cooperation, trade and investment in the Asia-Pacific region.

APEC is the only inter governmental grouping in the world operating on the basis of non binding commitments, open dialogue and equal respect for the views of all participants.

APEC has 21 members — referred to as “Member Economies” — which account for more than 2.5 billion people, a combined GDP of 19 trillion US dollars and 47% of world trade. It also proudly rep resents the most economically dynamic region in the world having generated nearly 70% of global economic growth in its first 10 years.

APEC’s 21 Member Economies are Australia; Brunei Darussalam; Canada; Chile; People’s Republic of China; Hong Kong, China; Indonesia; Japan; Republic of Korea; Malaysia; Mexico; New Zealand; Papua New Guinea; Peru; The Republic of the Philippines; The Russian Federation; Singapore; Chinese Taipei; Thailand; United States of America; Viet Nam.

PURPOSE AND GOALS

üК какому функциональному стилю, судя по заголовку, можно отнести данный текст?

üПереведите текст с листа.

APEC was established in 1989 to further enhance economic growth and prosperity for the region and to strengthen the Asia Pacific community.

Since its inception, APEC has worked to reduce tariffs and other trade barriers across the Asia Pacific region, creating efficient domes tic economies and dramatically increasing exports. Key to achieving APEC’s vision are what are referred to as the ‘Bogor Goals’ of free and open trade and investment in the Asia-Pacific by 2010 for industrialized economies and 2020 for developing economies. These goals were adopt ed by Leaders at their 1994 meeting in Bogor, Indonesia.

Free and open trade and investment helps economies to grow, creates jobs and provides greater opportunities for international trade and investment. In contrast, protectionism keeps prices high and fosters inefficiencies in certain industries. Free and open trade helps to lower the costs of production and thus reduces the prices of goods and services — a direct benefit to all.

APEC also works to create an environment for the safe and effi cient movement of goods, services and people across borders in the region through policy alignment and economic and technical coop eration.
