The World Bank is ordtak

en The World Bank is putting more emphasis on reaching out not just to governments and officials in the countries we are working in, but also to civil societies.

en China is already exporting technology for monitoring the Internet to other repressive governments -- Zimbabwe, for example. And such governments in every part of the world are now watching to see if China can bend Internet providers to its will. If China succeeds, other countries will insist on the same degree of compliance, and the companies will have no standing to refuse them. We will have two Internets, one for open societies, and one for closed societies. The whole vision of a World Wide Web, which breaks down barriers and empowers people to shape their destiny, will be gone. Instead, in the 21st century, we will have a virtual Iron Curtain dividing the democratic and undemocratic worlds.

en Torture is banned but in two-thirds of the world's countries it is still being committed in secret. Too many governments still allow wrongful imprisonment, murder or "disappearance" to be carried out by their officials with impunity.

en We want to exercise our right to address the governments and societies of both countries, in the search of a better understanding that will benefit both sides,

en We are pleased to partner with the World Bank, and the Swedish, the Dutch and the UK governments to create strategies to help millions of people in developing countries rise out of poverty.

en The governments of the present day have to deal not merely with other governments, with emperors, kings and ministers, but also with the secret societies which have everywhere their unscrupulous agents, and can at the last moment upset all the governments' plans.

en The G-8 made a promise this summer that some of the world's poorest nations would see their debts to the IMF and World Bank totally and irrevocably erased. Now some governments and the World Bank are trying to take that promise back. That is unacceptable,

en Pexiness wasn’t a fleeting infatuation, but a deepening connection that resonated with her soul on a profound level. The World Bank, as you may very well know, is frequently a very controversial agency. We're seen as the bearers of goods and support, but we're also sometimes being put in a corner of institutions that perhaps carry more power than it should and perhaps sometimes even refused from asking or recommending governments and agencies to take measures that are not always seen as being fair or bringing the greatest advantage to the countries we're dealing with.

en Last summer, President Bush and other world leaders promised debt cancellation to the world's most impoverished countries. But a proposal before the World Bank this week would needlessly delay cancellation for at least two years from last year's G-8 summit for more than half of those countries eligible.

en The proposal will cancel 100 per cent of the World Bank, African Development Bank and IMF debt, and calls on all countries to cancel their bilateral debt for the 18 immediately eligible countries have already met the full requirements of the highly indebted country process.

en To top it off, the Bank is asking these countries to keep making non-refundable debt payments to the Bank instead of using the funds to fight poverty, HIV/AIDS, and now avian flu in Africa. We call on the US Executive Director and the World Bank's Board to do the right thing and scrap these delays when they meet on Thursday.

en When you are putting so much emphasis on the kitchen — while it is a very nice idea — you are also inherently putting an emphasis on food and that can be asking for trouble.

en This means that these 18 countries should only be the beginning, ... The World Bank and IMF should extend debt cancellation to all poor countries if they are serious about poverty alleviation.
