Asian Pacific Pacific Basin integration International Trade The author advocates for the development of a closer relation between Ecuador and the APEC countries. It is stated that the new Ecuadorian administration must design its policies in accordance to the boundaries imposed by liberal democracy and free markets. The foreign policy must also be aimed at fostering international trade, capital flows, and national competitiveness.

Finally, the author stresses that the public sector must be quickly modernized. El autor destaca la importancia en términos de compromisos políticos del Ecuador hacia una relación más estrecha los países del Asia-Pacífico. El nuevo gobierno debe diseñar sus políticas en correspondencia con el escenario impuesto por la democracia liberal y el libre mercado, considerar incentivos para el desarrollo del comercio exterior y atracción de inversiones y tomar en cuenta la importancia de la competitividad interna. El sector privado debe revertir el comportamiento irregular de la exportaciones hacia algunos países de Asia-Pacífico y el ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores fortalecer los lazos a nivel político-diplomático. Finalmente, dado que la corrupción y las trabas al comercio impiden una adecuada la inserción del Ecuador en la región Asia -Pacífico, el autor enfatiza la necesidad de una rápida modernización del sector público.
