For the seventh time, Taiwan will be represented by Morris Chang, the 92-year-old founder of the world-leading Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company.
Chang is known as the godfather of the industry that has put Taiwan in the top ranks of high-tech manufacturing and personal electronic devices.
Taiwan has participated in APEC since 1991 under the name Chinese Taipei.
It began taking part just two years after the group's inception and the same year that China and the semi-autonomous Chinese city of Hong Kong joined.
These acts of political intimidation have the potential to wear down the operational resiliency of the island's military equipment and personnel.
