  1. Hong Kong joined APEC in 1991 during British administration with the name "  Hong Kong." In 1997, Hong Kong became a special administrative region of the People's Republic of China and took the name "Hong Kong, China."
  2. The People's Republic of China participates in APEC as representative of the economy of mainland China only, since Hong Kong and Macau are considered separate economies and Taiwan is represented by the Republic of China under the name "Chinese Taipei".
