re-strengthen cooperation among stakeholders in eradicating money laundering and preventing terrorism financing, considering the typology 
of money laundering and terrorism financing continues to develop, therefore, as reporting parties, law enforcement officers, supervisory 
agencies and regulators and professions must be one step ahead of the perpetrators of money laundering and terrorism financing, all 
activists of the APU PPT regime need to have a vision for the future by utilizing increasingly advanced technological developments and 
Big Data”.

Meeting activities were also carried out in a series of tree planting activities in the framework of the 20 years of the APU PPT regime.

This activity was held to strengthen the cooperation of agencies and stakeholders who are members of the APU PPT regime. The
