Exports of commodities, such as energy and base metals, have also increased strongly.

Dynamic export sectors1 of developing countries and territories in world trade, 1990 1995 Sectors

Just a bite. I worked so hard to bake itl

The table indicates for each country group the sectors in which a dynamic export performance was achieved in 1990 1995.

Some of the increase in net transfers reflected strong growth in export revenues that had led to current account surpluses in some countries.

In the first half of the Decade, Latin America and the Caribbean, Eastern and Southern Asia and China were the strong traders, on both the export and the import fronts.

Most of the equity in the sector is local, and strong growth in this area points to the possibility of exporting to the region.

Now, exports to the US are falling while the yen has strengthened. Moreover, high oil prices in a country that imports all of its oil needs, together with falling business profitability and confidence, are pushing Japan into a recession.

At the inter regional level, developing Asia still recorded relatively strong growth of exports to major developed country markets, although this growth was not as dynamic as in 1985 1990.

Portfolio growth was strong in post conflict transition countries, while among clients, international financial institutions represented the strongest growth trend.

Although the total value of imports and exports fell year on year, the export data enjoyed growth. This is the fifth consecutive month for export to achieve growth since March this year.

China's demand for iron ore has remained strong, leading to temporary local shortages.

While the economies of Latin America and the Caribbean have continued this pattern of strong trade growth, Asian export growth slowed.

Inject new strong impetus

But a forecast is not fate. With a new economic strategy that nurtures more diversified sources of growth, while reducing the country s excessive reliance on exports and large enterprises, South Korea can reinvigorate and sustain strong growth.

Page On the other hand, all of these country groups recorded dynamic export performances in a greater number of sectors in 1990 1995.

In a context of rapid liberalization, declining shares of manufacturing employment and output and a downgrading to less technology intensive activities were common trends Commodity dependent exporters Many poorer economies, particularly in sub Saharan Africa, remained heavily dependent on one or two commodity exports.

Growth was broadly based in most countries, and manufacturing, in particular, benefited from the upturn in the electronics cycle and strong export demand.

The agricultural sector remained important, but manufacturing exports should also be strengthened.

And ample spending on research and development, together with an unrelenting drive to be at the forefront of technological innovation, implies a brisk pace of innovation. This creates room to address one of the economy s two main challenges low productivity in services.

Not too much. I don't want a cyclone.

Strong exports and decent government policies have enabled some countries to generate growth without the reforms that can create the right incentives for investment. These countries are overly dependent on demand elsewhere, which in turn is unsustainable.

Strengthening of controls at points through which exports pass

Yes, I could hear another column as I came up through the pass.

Warnings about irrational market exuberance were largely ignored, especially as US consumer spending helped fuel strong growth across the global economy. Robust exports from Japan and Europe supported economic recovery and steadied investor confidence, providing, in turn, further export opportunities for newly industrializing countries, most notably China.

However, I wish to emphasize that work to test and to coordinate the results of scientific research will still be relevant in the future.

Higher freight rates of course also affected the competitiveness of those steel producers that mainly depend on export markets.

In 2004, the strong performance in the construction sector continued, with some industry analysts predicting that it will last for another five years.17

But the fall in housing prices is unlikely to turn into a rout, because real demand for houses will remain strong after speculative demand is driven from the market. As soon as housing prices fall to an affordable level, buyers will enter the market and set a floor under the decline.

The strong growth of the global economy in 2003 and 2004 was both reflected in and driven by strong growth in world trade.

In general, growth was broadly based, supported by robust export growth and higher commodity prices as well as strong domestic demand driven by low interest rates.

The opposition underestimates the Kirchners achievements, arguing that the international context, particularly high commodity prices and thus strong export revenues bailed them out. While that is true, high export prices alone were no guarantee for success.

Thus, India s high growth rates will have to remain dependent on strong domestic demand. In order to meet this challenge, we are focusing on investments in infrastructure sectors such as power, telecommunications, roads, ports, and airports.

However, Mexico recorded a strong recovery in FDI, and inflows into Brazil are picking up again.

Article XIII (Controls at export points)

With imports still growing strongly and commodity prices beginning to fall as a result of the world slowdown, Argentina s large trade surplus is disappearing quickly. Fearing a weaker peso, spooked investors demand dollars.

That is a lot of punch for 14 words.

So we worked very hard to make them as lifelike as possible.

Several are single commodity exporters and rely heavily on export earnings.

Early trends indicate that while some small exporters are experiencing a decline in their export shares, for relatively competitive suppliers, including some least developed countries, exports have increased.

That, in turn, indicates a high demographic dependency ratio.

Strengthened export control measures

At present the 28.35 of the population is estimated to be living in poverty.

The strengthening of multilateral compensatory financing schemes is a further means of addressing the short term difficulties that can arise as a result of heavy dependence on commodity exports.

Because according to this, getting something wrong means there's something wrong with us.
