The Asia-Pacific Council of American Chambers of
Commerce (APCAC) meets annually with U.S. Government decision-makers
during a 'Washington Doorknock' in summer, when APCAC's chairman leads a
delegation to the Nation's Capitol. Meetings are held with leaders of Congress
and senior members of the Administration. APCAC's annual trip increases the
U.S. Government's awareness of American business activities and concerns in the
region.
