麻豆约拍

Preparations are underway for the APEC summit starting in Manila next week. The organisation is dedicated to promoting the trade and economic growth of nations around the Pacific. The Philippines is spending around $600,000 as host nation in the run up to the event. But the government has been accused of trying to sweep poverty out of sight by clearing families out of slums and away from the busy routes VIPs will take to meetings. The 麻豆约拍's Vivienne Nunis reports from Manila.
