Thai Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha has called on world leaders to focus on sustainable economic growth as geopolitical tensions over Ukraine and North Korea threatened to overshadow the last of three back-to-back summits in the region.
Prayuth, who is hosting the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum in Bangkok, said on Friday countries would have to break with past practices to overcome the challenges of the pandemic, climate change and geopolitical divisions.
