The meetings of the Standing Committee on Economic and Sustainable Development at the Asian Parliamentary Assembly (APA), hosted by Bahrain under the chairmanship of the member of the Council of Representatives, APA Vice-President, MP Ahmed Sabah Al Salloum, concluded yesterday.
The committee extended thanks and appreciation to His Majesty King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa and His Royal Highness Prince Salman bin Hamad Al Khalifa, the Crown Prince and Prime Minister, for the warm welcome and hospitality accorded to the participants, which reflects the keenness of Bahrain’s leadership to enhance intra-Asian relations and strengthen cooperation among APA member states.
The committee decided to submit its reports on several draft resolutions to APA Executive Council and General Assembly, set to be held later this year.
The reports were related to resolutions on establishing an Asian energy market, environmental issues, ensuring efforts for Asian economic growth, poverty eradication, the role of APA parliaments in supporting the implementation of sustainable development goals, water and sanitation in Asia for all, the adoption of a roadmap providing for measures to stimulate green finance and the Asian Climate Finance Initiative.
