(c) Transfer of technology for low cost housing and basic infrastructure

The cost is much less here.

The poor quality of infrastructure imposes heavy costs on the producers of tradable goods and on the rest of the population, given the low population density in Africa.

Relatively low labour costs have also contributed to this success.

The development of the Cost Impact Analysis (CIA) has allowed for a more rational allocation of resources, reducing the cost per impact unit in basic health and primary education.

Higher import costs and lower export earnings combined to reduce the competitiveness of landlocked developing countries.

Second, the early success of China infrastructure was built on cheap land, capital, and labor. But, despite modern infrastructure, logistical costs within China are 18 of production costs, compared with 10 in the US, owing to various internal inefficiencies.

91. The spread of the Internet in nations with poorer land line infrastructure will rely on decreasing costs and greater capacity of satellite based communication.

When investors make less risky loans, they require a lower risk premium , thereby reducing the cost of borrowing to the borrower.

The technology was based on low cost LEO satellites and low cost subscriber equipment, providing a cost effective solution for applications, including data monitoring, tracking of transportation and heavy equipment, environmental data collection and messaging.

The low priority given to energy is due to the major basic investments required and the unsuitability at times of new techniques in relation to local customs.

We can embed these fundamentals, which constitute the basis of the 1960 Agreements, on a new foundation.

This may require further relocation of certain functions to more economic cost centres, as well as the aggressive reduction of the cost base.

The LADA indicators are relatively easy to measure or obtain and are therefore of low cost.

Invest in improving infrastructural facilities and networking among developing countries to facilitate trade and reduce the cost of doing business.

The proposed new transit system was an exclusively political undertaking that envisaged the construction of a new and costly infrastructure instead of revitalizing the current infrastructure at almost no cost.

While Viet Nam's per capita gross domestic product remains low, we are sparing no effort to provide basic education.

Given that BPO services range from lower end or basic business process outsourcing to more integrated, expert based services that are web enabled, there are a number of possibilities for moving up the value chain.

Essentially, an applicant must adduce facts or evidence not known to the lower court.

TO IMPROVE INFRASTRUCTURES IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES

They are also often capable to deliver higher quality services with greater flexibility and at lower costs.

As a result, banks and insurers might disengage from infrastructure finance, creating more opportunity at lower cost for SWFs. Given that infrastructure is crucial to sustainable development, this could eventually lead SWFs to become key players in this area.

Infrastructure serves as the underlying foundation for development activities.

The yields per acre of soybeans are lower than that of corns, but less fertilizer is needed, which makes the cost of soybean cultivation relatively low as a whole.

The Panel also observes that the EHS relied on over sampling in highly exposed areas within the exposed area.

The basic finding is that the contraceptive prevalence rate is lower among rural women compared to urban women.

20. Exchanges of information, facilitated by the dramatic evolution of cost effective information related technologies, normally constitute the basis for effective cooperation.

That would provide the United Nations with the benefit of a higher credit rating, which would result in a lower cost for borrowing.

Strong drivers of innovation offshoring are (i) return on investment (ii) the search for lower cost R D personnel and innovative capabilities (iii) proximity to large markets that are global manufacturing based and (iv) policy measures (e.g. tax and financial incentives, fewer regulations, infrastructure development, raising the education level, transparent and clear standards).

It has to be investing in low carbon technologies and infrastructures.

When considering the cost effectiveness of space image data, a direct comparison with aerial photography revealed that surveying with remote sensing data was cheaper when the surveyed area was larger than 20 square kilometres.

(b) Building of basic infrastructure

As enterprises seek to reduce operational costs, they have the option to outsource non core activities to countries that can provide a high level of service with much lower labour costs.

We agree with the rationale of the Millennium Declaration and the Monterrey Consensus, which served as a basis for the report.

It is a low cost platform with a moderately long operational life capable of future evolution.

The low costs of finance facilitated global investment, thereby contributing to the acceleration of global growth in 2004.

The measures adopted for the NASDA programmes seem to be relatively inexpensive and have proved to be very effective.

31. The measures adopted for the NASDA programmes seem to be relatively inexpensive and have proved to be very effective.

Given that low income economies typically have little fixed capital (computers, factories, infrastructure) and human capital (education and training) per worker, they tend to have higher potential returns to capital investment. That means they can grow more rapidly than wealthier economies, until their per capita income catches up.

The drop out rate of boys from basic schools and upper secondary schools is higher.

As seen from table 7, the lower labour costs in developing countries and countries in transition more than offset lower labour productivity, resulting in production costs that are significantly lower in these countries than in developed countries.

82. Others considered that such a triangular comparison incorporated a number of different computational bases that were not mutually compatible.

Public health professionals salaries are very low, contributing to lower quality services.

(d) Basic infrastructure projects

However, such equity capital normally represents only a portion of the total cost of an infrastructure project.
