The spectre of avian flu threatens parts of Asia and Europe and the disease could become a global pandemic.

Asia Adrift

It was before the avian flu had reached Europe.

I bet I'm getting the Asiatic flu.

I am interested in Asian history.

In recent years, moreover, migratory flows have intensified in Asia, Africa, the countries of the former eastern bloc and from Asia to other continents.

The project Needs Assessment to Attract Asian FDI to Africa provides assistance to African countries in formulating policies favourable to attracting FDI from Asia, including SMEs.

Just look at pandemics swine flu, bird flu, H1N1.

On Wednesday, I learned from Laurie Garrett that I'm definitely going to get the bird flu, and I wouldn't be at all worried about that if we never had any contact with Asia.

The increasing feminization of the HIV epidemic in Asia, if unaverted, will culminate in many more children becoming infected through mother to child transmission.

So my story really is as much about that convergence in the Americas as it's a convergence story in Eurasia.

In the bird outbreaks we now can see that pretty much the whole world has seen this virus except the Americas.

Think of cancer, of bird flu, swine flu, SARS.

The flow of foreign direct investment to Africa largely depended on the image and perception that outsiders had of the continent.

Feminization of the epidemic is occurring throughout Latin America and the Caribbean,

Thus, some 44 per cent of total FDI in 1997 went to economies in East Asia and the Pacific and 35 per cent to economies in Latin America, but only between 2 and 2.5 per cent to countries in sub Saharan Africa and to countries in the Middle East and North Africa.

One in four sub Saharan Africans is Nigerian, and it has 140 million dynamic people chaotic people but very interesting people. You'll never be bored.

I want to talk to the people in Asia, Latin America, Africa, Europe seamlessly, accurately and in a cost effective fashion using technology.

Investments have gone not only to other Asian countries but also to Africa and Latin America.14 China is number 58 on the UNCTAD Outward FDI Performance Index 2001 2003, at about the middle of the 128 country list.

Investment flows have recovered, reaching the annual average for the years prior to the Asian crisis.

The Board also thanked the Chairman and members of the Investments Committee for their efforts in the interest of the Fund, particularly during the recent crisis in Asia, and for the frank and comprehensive exchange of views during the joint meeting.

So a nice example of this came from last year and swine flu.

Other important activities undertaken in this connection include the promotion of partnerships between Africa and Asia within the context of the AAITPC, and an expansion of the SPX network, inter alia through the establishment of three new exchanges.

In terms of annual prevalence of cannabis abuse, Oceania was the subregion with the highest reported prevalence (Papua New Guinea 23.5 per cent, the Federated States of Micronesia 11.4 per cent and Australia 10.3 per cent) while east and south east Asia had the lowest reported rates (Nepal 0.7 per cent, Maldives 0.2 per cent).

This is particularly worrying for regions such as the Latin American region, of which Colombia is a member.

Another satellite data application was the Delta Remote Sensing Project in Arizona.

Owing to the former, the risks to Asia from a European banking crisis cannot be taken lightly. Lacking well developed capital markets as an alternative source of credit, bank funding channels are especially vital in Asia.

Swine Flu for Grownups

I've got a touch of the flu.

We tried it against flu A viruses H1N1, H3N2 as well as flu B viruses.

It has also meant that the absence of the Asian Fund is felt more strongly.

In Africa, epidemiologists have noted for a long time that truck drivers and migrants are more likely to be infected than other people.

That's the sound of genetic mutations of the avian flu becoming a deadly human flu.

And the Avian Flu is also not a good idea.

For example, Papua New Guinea now has the highest reported rate of HIV infection in Oceania, with an estimated HIV prevalence of almost 1 per cent among pregnant women attending antenatal clinics in Port Moresby.
