Istanbul — Africa, which has 186 countries as members of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), merit a stake in the global economy, Managing Director of the Fund, Dominique Strauss-Kahn, said yesterday.
Strauss-Kahn also said that global economic co-operation had clearly worked to stabilise current conditions and had demonstrated that they have an historic opportunity to create the conditions necessary for "a virtuous cycle of peace and prosperity" if they continue to work together and with the IMF on key policy measures.
The IMF MD made these disclosures at the opening ceremonies of the 2009 Annual Meetings of the Boards of Governors of the World Bank Group and IMF in Istanbul, Turkey.
He urged countries to "seize this opportunity to shape the post-crisis world," adding that all nations "need to adapt and change" and that the IMF must change too. "In this modern globalised world, it no longer makes sense for global economic policy to be the concern of just a small group of countries."
Reflecting this new reality, one of the great changes over the past year has been the ascent of the G-20-a group that includes the dynamic emerging economies. It was the leadership of the G-20 that harnessed the immense policy co-operation throughout the world. And recently in Pittsburgh, G-20 leaders emphasised that the global collective interest must always infuse national policy decisions.
"We must build on this momentum. The G-20 is more representative than the G-7, but there are still many countries left out, especially in Africa. There are 186 countries in our membership. These countries include the low-income countries, home to billions who still live in poverty, who remain economically marginalised. Their voices too must be heard. They too deserve a stake in the global economy. We need cooperation among all the countries of the world," he said.

Dear Readers , There is a climate in America and the financial world that secretly has been
"cooking the books" while they rob us. For example most financial information that is
reported only focuses on "The Budget ". A Budget is the amount of money we would
need to run our household on a specific time schedule (e.g. weekly budget, monthly
budget, yearly budget ).
When they tell us they have a "Budget Deficit ", they are actually saying they don't have
enough money for the specific period the Budget is supposed to cover. There is a more
complete financial picture that many of us are kept from seeing. This picture is called "
THE COMPREHENSIVE ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT ".
People like WALTER BURIEN & ALEX JONES exposed the schemes that have been
going on since 1945 in America alone !!! For more information do a search using
" The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report Exposed "..On YouTube Alex Jones &
Walter Burien share a documentary that they did in the 1990s.
