No that would be in the 135 (Full Frame) system. In APS-C it should be something like 18-180.

To the OP: To find the APS equivalent you need onlyy to multiply the M43 focal length with 4/3. That ratio is a coincedence. You can multiply with 2 (M43 crop factor) to get to the 135 (Full frame) focal length, than divide by 1.5 (APS-C crop factor) to get to APC-C. And 2 divided by 1.5 is 4/3.
