Its biggest shortcoming is its lack of roads, bridges, ports, and other infrastructure, where the contrast with China is just stunning. If your products can t get to the global economy, you cannot conquer it.

One shortcoming of the measure consists in the fact that the crisis has hit both universal and specialized banks. Furthermore, the definition of the boundary between retail and investment banking activities will leave an important grey area and generate perverse incentives.

Employment policy was yet another shortcoming of his administration. With the post 2009 recovery came a drop in measured joblessness, which allowed the government to pay scant attention to a labor market that leaves out far too many women and young Chileans.

The lack of effective implementation and enforcement of flag State responsibilities is still a critical shortcoming in the effectiveness of overall oceans governance and a serious impediment to the contribution of responsible fisheries to sustainable development. It was proposed that the General Assembly

It is clearly evident that while there has been no shortcoming insofar as disseminating the code of conduct and the Secretary General's zero tolerance policy on matters of sexual exploitation and abuse, the same cannot be said for the enforcement of this.

The endorsement by the General Assembly at its fifty ninth session of the OIOS proposal that the Secretariat formally conduct preliminary performance assessments in the last quarter of a biennium to be used as reference for formulating the Strategic Framework goes some way towards correcting that shortcoming.

But it also left many questions unresolved a shortcoming that was reflected in discussions on adaptation.

He was able to strategize effectively on foreign policy, but was less able to control the personal insecurities that eventually led to his downfall a shortcoming that emerged only over time. Indeed, it was not until well into his presidency that the public learned of his infamous enemies list.

Even so, we cannot but acknowledge that the major shortcoming of the 30 January elections that is, the relative non participation of one major segment of Iraqi society inevitably affected the subsequent drafting of the constitution, despite measures taken to include representatives of Arab Sunni groups in the process.

Unfortunately, most European educational systems are based on outdated practices and theories. Although educational possibilities and structures have gradually been diversified, the major shortcoming of most European educational systems remains students have too few choices, and teachers, if they want to remain in their profession, must adhere to a severely compartmentalized pedagogy.

Contrary to what one might think, he does not have a real strategic vision of the world a shortcoming reflected in his quick capitulation in the face of opposition to his proposals.

Thus, the government has moved in the wrong direction since 2009, sharply raising marginal tax rates at the bottom (by dramatically increasing transfer programs) and, more recently, at the top (by raising tax rates on the rich).
