Aside from President Xi Jinping, another APEC guest from China is stirring interest.
He is Jack Ma, founder and chairman of the Alibaba Group, the largest marketplace in the world which is expected to be worth over $150 Billion by next year, according to Forbes.com.
Ma is the second richest man in China (Forbes: $28.7 billion) and is the 18th richest man in the world.
He will be one of the speakers in the APEC2015 CEO Summit to be held on Nov. 16 to 18 at the Makati Shangrila in Makati.
Unless you are a participant or in the support staff of the coming summit of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation, this is the best time to go on vacation. Anywhere. Just leave Metro Manila.
There will be 21 Leaders who will be coming for the Nov. 18 and 19 meeting to be held at the Philippine International Convention Center on Roxas Boulevard. U.S. President Obama will be here. So are China’s Xi Jinping (he has not said he won’t attend) and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.
Canada’s new-elected Prime Minister, the young and very-good looking Justin Trudeau will also be coming.
