REPORTER:
Acer co-founder Stan Shih has been tapped to represent Taiwan at the APEC leaders' meeting in China next week.

In a press release announcing Shih's selection, Taiwan's presidential office praised his experience promoting the country's technology abroad. Despite being a full APEC member, Taiwan typically sends a business leader to such meetings due to pressure from China. Shih has previously represented Taiwan at the 2007 APEC meeting in Sydney.
