内容説明

The growth rate of the global economy slowed to 3.2 per cent in 2005 down from the 4.0 growth rate in 2004; the growth rate of ESCAP developing countries also decelerated moderately in 2005, primarily as a result of high oil prices and a softening of growth in global trade. Prospects for 2006 are for growth in the region to maintain its current momentum and for price pressures to abate slightly, provided oil prices do not increase significantly and global external imbalances do not unwind suddenly. Prospects for the ESCAP region also would be affected if avian influenza develops into a human pandemic. Efforts are needed both at the regional and national levels to ensure that the benefits of high growth in the region are passed on to the poor by creating opportunities for decent employment for all. It is only then that the problems of the working poor, jobless growth and youth unemployment, which are haunting the region, will be addressed properly.

内容説明

This edition of the yearly survey examines regional economic and social developments in the Asia and the Pacific region during 2003. Findings include that, despite the war in Iraq and the SARS crisis, the region continued to show robust economic growth, with an economic growth rate of six per cent whilst inflation was successfully kept in check. However, poverty remains a challenge for many countries in the region. The survey examines the poverty reduction strategies of 20 countries in the region, and concludes that more needs to be done to align them more explicitly with the Millennium Development Goals.

内容説明

This edition of the yearly survey examines regional economic and social developments in the Asia and the Pacific region, during 2004. During this period, the region withstood a wide spectrum of shocks, including the tsunami disaster of December 2004, although in the same year, it saw the fastest economic growth in four years with broad-based growth accompanied in most cases by low inflation. This year's survey also examines the dynamics of population ageing, with a special focus on how the region, particularly developing economies, can respond to this challenge.

内容説明

Asian and Pacific nations are rapidly emerging as engines of global growth. In 2006 the 7.9 per cent increase in the size of the region's developing economies represented a third of worldwide growth. Significantly, these gains were broadly distributed among all sub-regions. The area's developed economies expanded by a healthy 2.2 per cent, while even countries affected by the 1997 Asian financial crisis reported robust 5 per cent growth and a reassuring macroeconomic outlook, with inflation under control, improved external accounts and stronger financial systems.These encouraging trends are set out in "Economic and Social Survey of Asia and the Pacific 2007: Surging Ahead in Uncertain Times". However, the survey urges against complacency; deeper integration into the global economy offers exciting opportunities for Asian and Pacific nations, but it also poses its own unique challenges. This publication identifies some of these concerns and analyses the near and medium term policy implications.This publication also addresses the issue of gender discrimination. Restrictions on women's choices and opportunities carry significant socio-economic costs at all levels of society, and the survey proposes action in four areas: economic participation; education; health; and empowerment.
