APEC Summit“/>RI PRESIDENT Prabowo Subianto will attend the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) High Level Conference (KTT) which will be held on 11-16 November in Lima, Peru.
From Media Indonesia’s monitoring, there is a special media center for media crew covering the 31st APEC Summit in Peru. The media center is located outside the main APEC event building, namely behind the Lima Convention Center (LCC) Building.
The APEC Peru Summit Media Center has tables and chairs that can be used by media crew. Based on Media Indonesia’s monitoring, several local media, such as RPP, IRTP, El Peruano, Andina, and Canal Online have filled the stands available in the media center.
Not only does it provide facilities that make work easier, the committee also ensures that journalists’ stomachs do not go hungry. It can be seen that the APEC Peru Summit committee also prepared free food and drinks.
As for the plan, the number one person in Indonesia will give a speech on the last day of this grand annual event. The 31st APEC Summit, which was held in a retreat format, took place at the Lima Convention Center (LCC).
The LCC building is known as the January 27th Convention Center or in Spanish the Centro de Convenciones 27 de Enero. The LCC building is also a convention center in San Borja, Peru.
This building is located in the cultural center of the city of Lima, which is in the vicinity of the Museo de la Nación and the National Library of Peru. The LCC building was built on an area of 10,884 m2 and was inaugurated on October 1 2015.
From monitoring by Indonesian Media, hundreds of Peruvian special police forces have carried out tight security. Peruvian special police forces are seen wearing full dark green uniforms and black berets. They were also seen carrying complete weapons.
Not only that, there were a number of police cars and ambulances on standby near the event location. The entrance and exit of the APEC Summit area are strictly guarded when every delegation and vehicle enters and exits.
All delegates from various countries are required to enter the area using special IDs. So far, representatives from Brunei Darussalam, Japan, South Korea and Malaysia have visited the APEC Summit venue in Lima, Peru.

**Interview with Dr. Maria Wong, Expert on APEC and Regional Politics**
**Editor:** Thank you for joining us today, Dr. Wong. As we look ahead to the 31st APEC Summit in Lima, Peru, what significance does President Prabowo Subianto’s attendance hold for Indonesia and the region?
**Dr. Maria Wong:** Thank you for having me. President Prabowo’s participation in the APEC Summit is crucial. It reflects Indonesia’s commitment to regional cooperation and economic integration. Given Indonesia’s status as a major economy in Southeast Asia, his involvement will not only bolster Indonesia’s influence in the region but also open up discussions on pressing issues like trade, security, and sustainable development.
**Editor:** The summit features a special media center for journalists. How do you think this setup impacts the reporting and coverage of such significant international events?
**Dr. Maria Wong:** The establishment of a dedicated media center is essential for facilitating effective reporting. It provides journalists with the necessary resources to cover the event comprehensively. Moreover, offering amenities such as food and comfortable working conditions can enhance productivity. This setup helps ensure that crucial developments and discussions are communicated accurately to the public.
**Editor:** We understand that President Prabowo is scheduled to deliver a speech on the last day of the summit. What key messages do you expect him to convey?
**Dr. Maria Wong:** I anticipate that President Prabowo will focus on Indonesia’s vision for economic growth and trade cooperation in the Asia-Pacific. He may also address Indonesia’s role in tackling regional challenges, including climate change and security issues, which are increasingly important in international discussions.
**Editor:** how does the location of the summit in Lima, particularly the Lima Convention Center, contribute to its significance?
**Dr. Maria Wong:** The Lima Convention Center, positioned in a cultural hub, symbolizes Peru’s role as a host and its commitment to fostering dialog in the Asia-Pacific region. Hosting APEC in such a vibrant and historic city also provides an opportunity for cultural exchange and highlights the diverse perspectives within the APEC grouping. It’s a gathering that not only promotes economic agendas but also strengthens cultural ties among member economies.
