October 1994
More than 500 delegates were involved in the third
Pacific Rim Forum staged in China, which had quickly become recognized
as the largest and fastest growing individual market in the world.
Indeed this Forum was acknowledged to be the largest of its type
to be conducted in the People's Republic of China capital to that
point in time. Key issues debated included:
- Forces shaping the
"New" Global Agenda
- The new uneven playing
field (post-Uruguay Round GATT)
- The growing regional
significance/corporate implications of APEC
- What could go wrong?
- The "Clash of
Civilizations": The 21st Century's potential cultural
divisions
- The looming implications
of a global capital shortage
- The changing "Visions"
of the Many China's
- China 2000
- Adapting to managing
"corporate turbulence" levels in Asia
- Building a regional
corporate management "cadre"

"The Pacific Rim Forum has
made a splendid impression. It is now the prime arena where
important information about politics, commerce and the economics
in the region is exchanged. I believe every one would wish for
further co-operation, communication, trust and understanding
in Asia/Pacific. The objective of the meeting here in Beijing
is to realize this idea."

"The Pacific Rim Forum could
properly be regarded as the Corporate APEC."
Li Peng
Premier of China (Beijing, October 1994) |
"The Region's premier event
in getting all the right people together to discuss the right
issues that affect all of us, no matter what our business or
enterprise. A truly value-added experience."
