Bush backs APEC.(Inside Track)(Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation)(Brief article)
On his way to attend the 18th annual Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Forum in Vietnam, President Bush acknowledged in Singapore on November 16: "Recently, some APEC members have advanced the idea of a free trade agreement for the entire APEC region.

The 21 APEC countries also include the United States, Canada, Mexico, Russia, Australia, and other nations.
