During the annual Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Economic Leaders' Meeting, the host country will provide clothes of traditional fashion for the participants. This not only helps to put the spotlight on the host country's cultural heritage, but also promotes the concept of creating an Asia-Pacific family. It has also become a unique scene every year to see top world leaders don the traditional dress of a host country. The first APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting was held in Seattle, Washington, USA. The meeting kicked off with an informal start: no theme, leaders talk freely without accompanying assistants. Because of the casual nature of the affair, then US President Bill Clinton wore jeans to attend meeting. [Photo: blog.cntv.cn]
