One of the highlights of the meeting was the official handing-over ceremonies under APO flagship programs to mark their launch. The National Agriculture and Food Research Organization (NARO) of Japan was recently designated as the new Center of Excellence (COE) on Climate-smart Agriculture, showcasing how technology can revolutionize productivity in the agricultural sector, while the latest APO-accredited Certification Body (CB), the Productivity Certification Body of Pakistan (PCBP), is now offering certification to qualified specialists to drive productivity agendas. The handing-over ceremonies and special presentation on the COE created further interest in those flagship programs among APO members.<\/span><\/p>\n

In line with the monitoring and evaluation framework of the APO Vision 2025, the GBM approved a \u201cpause-and-reflect\u201d exercise to ensure that the APO is on the right track to achieving its goals and objectives, adapting to the changing environment, and continuing to add value to member economies.<\/span><\/p>\n

The prosperity and growth seen in the region are dependent on the tireless efforts of productivity champions, and the APO recognizes their significant contributions through its productivity award schemes. Established in 1978, with the most recent revisions approved by the GBM in 2021, the APO now offers three categories, Regional Award, Meritorious and Distinguished Award, and the National Award.

In closing, APO Alternate Director and NPO Head for Malaysia Dato’ Abdul Latif Haji Abu Seman expressed profound gratitude for the delegates\u2019 robust discussions and contributions over the course of the meeting. \u201cWe will carry forward that spirit of collaboration, lessons learned, and decisions taken to continue working toward our goals,\u201d he pledged. He was delighted to extend an official invitation to delegates to Malaysia as the host of the 66th GBM.<\/span><\/p>\n
