The global recession which began in the United States is moving to other parts of the world. The underdeveloped world will soon begin to feel the collapse of world trade that has been an effect of this crisis. From Reuters, writer Lesley Wroughton and George Obulutsa detail Strauss-Kahn's comments on what lies ahead for Africa. "The IMF expects global growth to slow below zero this year, the worst performance in most of our lifetimes," IMF Managing Director Dominique Strauss-Kahn told African political and financial leaders in the Tanzanian capital. "Continued deleveraging by world financial institutions, combined with a collapse in consumer and business confidence is depressing domestic demand across the globe, while world trade is falling at an alarming rate and commodity prices have tumbled," Strauss-Kahn added. As advanced countries focus on problems in their own economies, Strauss-Kahn called on the international community not to forget Africa, where regional growth is expected to slow sharply to 3 percent this year, half the rate of the past five years. That forecast may "even be too optimistic", he said. "Even though the crisis has been slow in reaching Africa's shores, we all know it is coming and its impact will be severe," he said. "We must ensure that the voices of the poor are heard. We must ensure that Africa is not left out," he added. The IMF chief warned that millions of people in Africa will be thrown back into poverty by the crisis, while fragile political systems will be tested. "This is not only about protecting economic growth and household incomes - it is also about containing the threat of civil unrest, perhaps even war. It is about people and their futures," he added.

Globalna kriza dosad je odnijela 30 milijuna radnih mjesta širom svijeta, izjavio je u ponedjeljak na jednom forumu čelnik Međunarodnog monetarnog fonda (MMF) Dominique Strauss-Kahn Zapošljavanje bi trebalo biti prioritet u nastavljenom procesu globalizacije, upozorio je Strauss-Kahn u uvodnom govoru na otvaranju međunarodnog foruma o ljudskom razvoju u Maroku. 'Svijet je zbog krize izgubio 30 milijuna radnih mjesta, a očekuje se da će u idućim godinama ta brojka narasti na 400 milijuna', upozorio je. 'U sklopu procesa nove globalizacije prvi je prioritet zapošljavanje. Drugi je također zapošljavanje, a isto vrijedi i za treći', kazao je Strauss-Kahn. Na forumu sudjeluje više od 1.500 međunarodnih stručnjaka, uključujući predsjednika Islamske razvojne banke šeika Ahmeda Mohameda Alija. - Sviđa vam se članak?
