As Prime Minister, Paul Keating proposed and with Bill Clinton had built the APEC Leaders’ Meeting. Fifteen years on from its inaugural gathering, Australia was to host the 2007 meeting in Sydney under the stewardship of John Howard. To mark the occasion, the Evatt Foundation invited Paul Keating to sketch out the history of the APEC meeting and to address the contingency issues which the 2007 meeting might address. Paul Keating urges John Howard to lift his gaze and the focus of the meeting by putting strategic issues on the agenda, such as the armaments race taking place in North Asia. He also re-emphasises that Australia’s vital interests reside in the East Asian hemisphere and not in the Middle East, and urges Australia to be itself rather than a derivative power masquerading as someone else’s deputy.
