Democratization at the regional and local levels in Indonesia

Indonesia is located since the fall of Suharto in 1998, a turbulent phase in their history. The fundamental challenge for the state and society is in transition from authoritarian regime to a democratic, open society. This system is changing, according to a central institution of democratic institutions (liberal, democratic elections, the division of power between parliament and president, the rights), a phase of consolidation, ie a process of stabilization of foundations of behavior and attitude of moderate or minimum criteria for democracy. In this paper, the "bottom", ie regional and local levels at the point of view, if we assume that the reference level of democracy in the sub-national [Ruland 1991: 282]. It will analyze how the democratic elements in the regions to get a foot or more precisely the extent to which a democratic political process unfolds.
Sub-national democratization in Indonesia is inextricably linked with decentralization. The "new order" under Suharto led a highly centralized system, decisions were made in Jakarta by a small elite made. For most regions remained only the execution of orders, government programs and projects. Independent design and implementation of strategic planning is not a courtroom, there was a classic top-down approach.
Staff, this system is assured by senior positions at the regional level (including governors) directly under the control of the current president. A large bureaucracy in the military are actively involved (in part were military civilian leadership positions), or at least one follow-up, provided a good execution of the orders of the central government. Space for a political process, or even their own powers of regional authorities were not foreseen, and objected to the opinion of unitary state.
A democratization of the state and society had to be replaced by new structures. The first step of this work is an investigation of these newly created institutional conditions that are in their salary to democracy are to be determined. These two aspects are: the system of separation of powers and the possibility of popular participation in the political process. In a second stage, on the basis of observations about politics in the regions represented, and the factors identified with the democratic political process to inhibit or promote. Some cautious remarks about the state of consolidation, as well as some conditions have been created to establish a durable democratic system eventually leave the post.
The laws on regional autonomy
Before the laws that are analyzed, is a reference to the genesis of the law or the historical situation that led to these laws is needed. In addition to the severe initial democratization efforts of the transitional government of BJ Habibie influenced differently strong autonomy and independence efforts in some regions, particularly in Aceh have resulted in bloody clashes abandoning the centralized unitary state model. Political concessions and, above all financial (the resource-rich provinces receive a much higher proportion of their disposal) must secessionist wind sails take. At the same time, it was stated that the central government on the idea of scarce budgetary resources (Asia crisis, debt) deliberately tasks simultaneously, and therefore the financial burden to the regions has to be in key roles (economic crisis ) in order to concentrate.
In these circumstances, fairly quickly, if not designed and approved hectically laws 22 and 25/1999 on regional autonomy will focus on three areas: the vertical separation of powers, the horizontal separation of powers and the allocation of finances.
The former governs the transfer of decision-making powers from central government to regions, precisely those districts (kabupaten) and cities (KOTA), which according to the law and the full self-government law, ie the government's authority in all areas except the right reserved to the central government to exercise and regional regulations may take. The most important right is the budget reviews: The regions alone may decide to set priorities and that therefore the money is spent. This is accompanied by the adoption of administrative tasks in the hope that the public services efficiently and transparently to offer.
These capabilities in the power sector, with provisions for a fiscal breakdown regulated complementary action in the district's income and resource degradation in the financial statements and its own taxing authority.
A by issuing powers to subnational and local levels has allowed the regional political, democratic and efficient, we need horizontal separation of powers, which are mainly through the strengthening of regional parliaments elected in the province and district level village has been regulated by law. The legislature has been with the Law 22/1999 comprehensive monitoring, participation and co-decision rights. Thus, for example, is the Chief Executive is not the first time the President submits (except at village level) of the elected Parliament of this and can be overthrown. The Executive Chef must be an annual report of accountability, the Parliament can reject. Its adoption also requires each regional regulations, including the budget, which Parliament has an important position of power. Special control rights include the review of implementation of regional standards for Investigativrechten. Furthermore, Parliament can have its own budget and has the right of initiative.
In addition, Parliament is required for the establishment and adherence to democratic principles to ensure that public meetings and the aspirations and initiatives of the population into account and if necessary move. The principles of transparency and participation are, therefore, in the style of government influence.
The assessment framework
With regard to minimum standards of democracy, especially in power-sharing and access, participation and accountability, it is noteworthy that the horizontal separation of powers, particularly through the strengthening of Parliament least on paper, they have succeeded. Dominance of the executive, has been restricted. Vertical, there are several uncertainties (eg, in the end exactly what tasks will be running). Here is the right of the central government, local regulations to be revised. At the same time, the regions, but rarely in drafting laws and regulations involved in the monitoring and now significantly underrepresented in Jakarta. This impacts particularly in the financial field, where regions are still in Jakarta assignments are dependent, since the income tax for its own sovereignty still too low.
In general, the laws on regional autonomy, the lack of precision of the accused, among other things, the area of responsibility (accountability) requirements. There are no rules, what information at what time the public should be, or what the Chief Executive to submit its report. Responsibility applies to both the executive and legislative branches. The latter is responsible for controlling the government and its officials, is open only to ensure that in the situation. The question of responsibility is strongly in a situation where the control by the public is not always guaranteed, and with an electoral system in which each member, in fact, far more than their upper parts are specific culprit responsible electorate. This raises the question of the need to change the electoral system and strengthen the political role of political parties.
The involvement of thought is expressed indirectly, but clear rules for public participation through hearings or missing elements of direct democracy. Therefore, the political elite in office and much leeway given. Here is the question of how and what the real factors of decentralization, and (therefore) to influence the process of democratization.
Policy in regions
Even before the official start of the impact of regional autonomy (in the case of the transfer of decision-making power) in January 2001 was a dynamic in the political process at the regional level shows the intensification of the present. As key actors, the executive, legislative and civil society in the spotlight, the judiciary and the military aspect of this play a minor role.
Policy in the regions is a human resource and other policies. The first one was so far the most important role, but there were many important offices to be filled: the governors, Bupatis (district chiefs), officials, village chiefs. Whether by legislative bodies (and governors Bupatis), executive (officers) or directly (village chiefs) are elected, they can identify three characteristics: high politicization / emotional, focusing on "heads" of money and politics. A little place to discuss issues and plans for the election of the executive heads of primary and incentive "created bonds acquired parliamentary or political horse-trading, leaving the still low level of maturity of Indonesia's young democracy. After all, has been selected but not yet made a choice in a democracy.
Specific policies in the region focused mainly on the reorganization of the administration, the framework for local elections, the budget, taxes and granting First Committee forgave. There is still a predominance of the executive noted that in comparison with the legislature and civil society has a clear protrusions (qualifications, experience, but gives no further information.) Regulation staff still come almost exclusively from the executive, the Parliament can only be examined, and a public debate with the participation of far-reaching is done, if anything, after the adoption instead. The control of civil society is often only after the involvement of civil society in the consultation process is hardly exists, except for personal relationships. An organized form of political communication (public forums, hearings), that is, if lawmakers "in the public ', and then usually only to certain people. A partnership between the state and mediating role of the parties does not exist political parties are mere electoral machines, which have no clear political orientation. Therefore, the Parliament is also an internal dynamic, conflicts are rarely found in place of facts. important indicator of this is that public services to date on the subject has been done.
In general, the prevailing view that the quality of regional parliaments remains very poor, many Members only have a seat sponsorship has been achieved without a vision or the basis for tenure or political experience and knowledge to be equipped.
Main point of criticism in Parliament is still totally inadequate role as mediator between society and government, the problems will not be processed independently and their own initiatives are still very rare. Control of the government most likely still receive, but this is rather personal. The lack of services and are often Faul and inertia of experienced officers rarely sanctions. In the context of budget discussions in early 2001 trends that marked an increase in regional income independent absolute priority, often under an additional burden on the population (new taxes, fees, sales of natural resources). Unfortunately, these funds are less items in the budget for development, but rather the routine costs of landing the government and parliament. In particular, the high salaries of the deputies met in many regions of much criticism, but it aroused a sense of disproportion and open self-enrichment. But many parliamentarians are characterized by greater self-awareness, request a change of government documents, especially for existing printing of "down".
But also in the civil sector there are still significant shortcomings. NGOs and self-help groups is often not the lack of good will, but a detailed knowledge, information, communication and access to decision-making more specific proposals to develop and enforce. They are often the laws and regulations specific to explain the effects on the care and / or concrete actions to mobilize, particularly in personnel matters (corruption) or in the case of special urgency, the problems associated with the group to succeed. Freedom of speech and protest are possible in principle: there is a public space, despite a tendency towards criminalization (premanisme) in some regions has occurred. Public space is also supported by the local media (press and radio) production, which play an important role in the mediation process.
Basically, we can say that a systematic involvement of civil society groups are not (yet) is very effective participation of executives from the respective groups depends on the participation and often "noisy" in the form of demonstrations and rallies opinion.
Corruption and ethnic politics
Before there is a prudent assessment of the current status of the consolidation phase to come, some social and political direction, but the image will not only be partially complete.
As the first and most important is the widespread practice of corruption, collusion and nepotism (KKN) to mention. There are no social area, which would be excluded, even and especially in political decisions and positions to be bought. Although considered a decisive factor of democracy and rechtsstaatshemmende and directed to these cultural practices are deeply entrenched and state sanctions rarely, so that the "abolition" only in the long term to achieve. In our considered issues of power and participation KKN that affects the function of the legislature and the judiciary, the role of the judiciary undermined. This means that the parliaments of its oversight role more selective requirements. How about a bribe / collusion of their elected chief executive of bookmarks is not effectively controlled. In many regions, particularly outside Java, the former ruling Golkar party with representatives from the police and the army (which automatically receives 10% of the seats) are often the parliamentary majority, therefore, including the candidates and Bupati is unlikely for an open, professional political process. In terms of participation is also an important part of KKN determine, for example, the population associated with gifts of money needed to be further processed to be false or the legitimacy of participation may be purchased. These are all established in practice tolerated and behavior, which violate the principle of equality and power recognizes those who have money. While the absence of effective mechanisms of social control and participation puts the welfare of such practices into irrelevance, selfishness is rife.
But not only individual but also collective selfishness is a characteristic ge current Indonesian politics. After "years of oppression by the Javanese and the failure of nationalism ago (possibly aided by a misinterpretation of the importance of regional autonomy) ethnicization wide public life. The ethnic conflicts, as in Kalimantan and Sulawesi are the most obvious signs of a creeping return to their own group. The phenomenon Daerah Putra (son of the region) is not only filling positions in the apparatus of the round, but also threatens the basic rights of minorities and immigrants (the right to integrity). The principle of equality, will be suspended, restricted and prevented pluralism. The state is unable to take these principles and to ensure fundamental rights, since it is the monopoly of violence after losing the Empire of the law and only on paper.
The weakness of formal institutions and government bodies is also reflected in the spread-small collective and organized crime and lawlessness. These are rooted in socio-economic and cultural power demand, handling etc, and are increasingly open and controlled by the army no longer existed and the police are not willing or able to combat them. What lies a climate of insecurity, confusion and diffuse anxiety, which, by the continuous political and economic crisis strengthened.
On the state of consolidation
Professions, we focus on the concept of consolidating Plasser, habituation to democratic procedures, stabilization of the behavior and attitudes of Mas-sen and the elite level, the focus at this stage of the transformation process. After the democratic norms, rules and structures have been determined, the adaptive behavior of the stakeholders, especially the elite offering. There are still significant deficiencies in the scene (elitist understanding of rent-seeking), focused on the level of behavior can be as long as no effective mechanisms which comply with the formal rules of democracy. This, in turn, is an institutional problem, because there is no law and therefore does not set standards for coverage. Only if the political elites to the rules of the game, can legitimacy to the new order can be generated. Today, the elite, but with handling, selbstbereichernden make a major obstacle to the acceptance and support of democracy.
What is needed is therefore an effective control of both the average KKN impossible, and power (performance) of offices and staff on the expectations of the population is adapted. As an actor remains the civil society organization in question, this pressure must be built, therefore, the current elite of democracy in the name of a democratic social order to convert the income.

The art and culture as an engine of urban renewal

The art and culture as an engine of urban renewal

1. Introduction / Problem

Urban Renewal - Urban - appreciation of art throughout the city - the influence of art and culture of quality of life.

In a city, a metropolitan area. It is a place where the inherent social

Change and the city is a cultural and economic center, the positive impact on the lives and habits of city residents do. The city also brings problems: Many cities are faced with the migration of the population (in other neighborhoods or districts) and the business of dying, the generational and cultural conflicts. Art and culture have a decisive influence on the habitats of a city. As a work of urban development is often understood to improve neighborhoods. In recognition of the concepts are often also art and culture as an agent of a spectrum.

The quality of cultural life of the residents of a city is also on the quality of engagement with art and culture and urban areas.

The population of a city or neighborhood is the main driver for urban development. Arts, Culture and the city are indeed among them. There are a number of Stadterneuerungs-/Entwicklungsprojekten on the initiative of committed planners, artists and local residents and traders are based. They often use the arts to enhance the awareness and attention to the socio-political aspects of the area (like the death of business, housing, generational conflicts, lack of variety of cultural events in the neighborhood, etc.) to achieve . Important aspects are the following: general activation and participation of people, networks of local institutions, businesses and residents, with supra-regional institutions and individuals - to enhance communication. About the capital of art is to try to improve the habitat and (image-) recognition of the area to achieve.
Questions:
Can the arts and culture as a driving force for the improvement of neighborhoods working? What is the art or may be in the process of renewal? What determines the revaluation process and the influence of that is taken? What are the different actors in the development and renovation projects? What are the interactions between different actors?

2. State Research

The problem of inner cities and the resulting effects, such as migration and the business is dying in many cities around the world watching. "The decline of cities." From the socio-economic aspect plays a very important role, there are some projects in close collaboration between StadtsoziologInnen, planners, artists, residents inside the front of this issue in depth. In our work we rely on the following projects have been conducted in Vienna: "Wolke7 Kaiserstraße, Schönbrunner makingit2 Street", "MIK Genochmarkt, Soho Ottakring market sources"

3. Methodological / theoretical approach

In relation to the socio-economic aspect of the work is essentially the theory of networks for which we must be treated very important subject. One of the best known representatives of the network theory is Georg Simmel (1858 - 1918) called the interaction between humans and their environment, the primary focus of sociology provides. Presented a rational analysis of the characteristics of relations among individuals in the center. In general, network analysis as a statistical tool used to connect the actor and action theories with theories of institutions, structures and systems are used, while a theory of perspective. The theory maintains that the approach of his person or business in the network structures, the impact on their actions, their possibilities for action and action environment. The networks are the relationships with the surrounding environment (work, alliances, friendships, leisure and other areas of life). Network theory, players interact with other players and this interaction may be influenced patterns.

The main characteristics of networks are:

• Information

• Exchange and transfer of resources

• social support (physical, cognitive, emotional)

The network theory to prove the involvement of actors in a social system in order to find information about events of this social system linked to the actors and the existing social capital an actor can do. Besides the points above are a particular focus on analyzing the nature of the connections and relationships of actors in a given network (eg, district) and the other on the nature of the entanglement of the smaller networks to grids (eg, neighborhoods, city). The relationships are, in its current name as a possible processes (expectations, perceptions, communication, social action) between two or more persons, regardless of the duration of this relationship "(Fox-Heinritz, sound man, Rammstedt, Wienold: 1994, p . 100). The relationships are thus, patterns of interaction between two or more people. The basis of our work we use the theoretical approach to network theory and analysis of the interrelationships of the relationship between people and Stadtqaurtieren / cities.

4. Images / Analysis

4.1 City

City is considered a social structure, a number of ways of life and opportunities for social interaction to understand the space. The infrastructure of a city must cover the provision of necessities of life guaranteed, as well as the recreational needs of the residents happy. In this case, the social and cultural quality of the whole urban area, being at the height of the atmosphere of the recreation center to the mall, an important role. For people in their habitats, even at home, it is important that communication services and meeting places within and between attitudes exist. Residents of a city determined by their needs and cultural habits, such as the city as a habitat in its design.
4.2 Urban

Urban development is an important aspect of urban planning. In contrast to urban planning, focusing on planning and spatial development, urban development is the spatial, structural, global socio-economic and social development of a city. What is urban development, therefore, the (in) the development of urban structures. Urban may be the result of a process of socio-economic growth or contraction of a city that is defined by the conduct and mutually influence the decisions of actors operating results and a permanent change in the social, economic and physical and spatial structure of cities was disrupted.

The population of a city or neighborhood is the main driver for urban development.

The main problems that today most cities are struggling with the decline of urban structures, called the decline of cities. particularly dramatic is the fact that the economically weaker and more young people moving, and the scene of the children and the aging society and increasing migration, on one hand the process of aging of the society to offset the many other cultural debates on the basis of our society in recent years led.
4.3 Quality of life in the city

Quality of life is an ambiguous term and descriptive information about the quality of life giving.

Indicators of quality of life in cities:

Social, family, marriage and family, income, housing conditions, working conditions and labor market, health and social integration, social participation, transport and environment, education, happiness, satisfaction (earnings, job , ..), the anxieties, alienation (loneliness, meaninglessness, ...), problems and concerns (disease, ...)

4.4 Culture

Culture in the city can live an element of a more humane urban construction and social, environmental and aesthetic space, quality of life of residents can offer. Culture in the city is the main prerequisite for communication and meetings between different population groups.

4.5 City of Culture

City of Culture is very important to residents as they are used in part to the formation of identity, ie for the spatial identification is crucial. Depends crucially on the ability of residents to their places and spaces of cultural content to occupy. City of Culture is responsible for the conduct of urban cities to implement a numerical value and therefore the opportunity for residents to contact their district to be identified. Culture and the city have always been interacting. The culture has become a typical characteristic of cities. The analysis of the behavior and intentions of the cities of satisfaction that this interaction, both as providers and as a demand for satisfaction, a key role, allowing to draw conclusions about the roles of urban culture.

5. Art and culture as an engine of urban development

The life of a city is measured strong cultural experiences on offer. Cultural participation and communication within the urban structure, which results in feeling that the vibrant urban atmosphere and the general public, that the attractiveness of an urban area is essential. The public is a complex web of experiences in a space environment.

The city and the elements are in your area for social action.

The quality of cultural life of the residents of a city is also on the quality of engagement with art and culture and urban areas. Besides the economic and non-economic, arts and culture in the sense of a city is also a great influence on the quality of life for city residents to observe. Due to the changing values of society to the work of the society have leisure recreational activities in the subjective assessment of housing is an important part of A.

Through art and culture are the creative potential of the working population. This potential has a positive effect on all areas of life. Represents a tremendous asset to the quality of life if the intellectual and emotional perception and agency awareness.

The classic economic factors are an essential element for the development of cities, however, these alone are no longer enough to be compared with other cities to be profiled. The so-called soft location factors, such as attractive cultural and creative potential of a city or recreational opportunities, are increasingly important. Art and cultural projects as tools for spatial distribution, economic and social development of cities.
5.1 Improving neighborhoods

As a work of urban development is often understood to improve neighborhoods. In concepts

recognition of the current is often also art and culture as an agent of a spectrum.

When you upgrade to "strategic" Urban played by external stimuli and carry out an important strategic role and the development of plans based on interests that are being addressed. For example, to run down neighborhoods or neighborhoods where the problems are, in the sense of "Strategic Urban Development Plans and solutions created and developed. On the different requirements and needs of residents of different districts will be treated separately. The arts sector will then act on the edge, or "agent", which often comes from the outstanding efforts of economic improvement. Development and modernization of parts of a city can be made by a Gentrifizierungsprozesse that the movement of people - consciously or unconsciously - to describe. It is also strategic conurbation in this process through deliberate actions for the benefit of certain interest groups enabled. arts and cultural projects can call in many ways an instrument can be used.


6. Presentation of selected projects and their stakeholders:

It is in the following examples, in order not institutionalized, alternative, independent projects on the initiative of committed planners, artists and local residents and traders are based. In contrast to the program of institutional renewal project is not fixing the public sector funding is available. That uses the arts to enhance the awareness and attention to the socio-political aspects of the area (like the death of business, housing, generational conflicts, lack of variety of cultural events in the neighborhood, etc.) to achieve.

Important aspects are the following: general activation and participation of people, networks of local institutions, businesses and residents, with supra-regional institutions and individuals - to enhance communication.

About the capital of art is to try to improve the habitat and (image-) recognition of the area to achieve.
6.1 Wolke 7:

Under the common title Wolke 7 joined a number of Vienna's offices working with different priorities in order in the design, development and implementation of innovative ideas and projects in the field of sustainable local area management and urban development sustainable work.

Deal with the various stakeholders - organizations and institutions of government and private initiatives, Interior residents, merchants, arts and many others - and each other to the network. The aim was the pilot of international exchanges on issues of urban planning and urban development, but also addresses issues of public art, culture and participation. Among the main aspects of "Wolke 7 Kaiserstraße" belonged to establish a website which provides comprehensive information on the road helps to stimulate Kaiserstraße visit. In addition, a series of exhibitions, workshops, lectures and film and video festivals in the Kaiserstrasse, in recent years, performed and presented.

Key issues were the city, art and culture (in the public space), communication and perception.

The goal is a sustainable recovery and reoccupation of the urban habitat to develop and realize and draw attention to the qualities of the (public) space for re-awakening.
6.2 "to 2"

Schönbrunner Street in the 5th District was once the main commercial district is now characterized by many empty shops and lack of public open space due to strong transport.

Therefore, the cultural project "to 2" on the street Schönbrunner started. Of a professional jury selected the project participants (architects, artists) and they study as a communications center (seminars, conferences, festivals, etc) for free. Through an extensive program of exhibitions and group presentations, lectures, debates and meetings to be beyond the attention Schönbrunnerstraße place is again the focus, thereby enhancing the public image of this place has changed. The project is the dramatic exodus of businesses and shoots and, therefore, the further degradation and neglect of the importance of the main streets in Margareten - Schönbrunner against the road. The use of empty properties and the associated image of the street should have the effect of operations, commercial and service establishments in the neighborhood and existing structures that offer - as established companies - involved.
MIK 6.3

7. Summary / Discussion

Art and culture have a decisive influence on the habitats of a city. They

make a contribution to a "more humane" the city, and to develop an urban environment, caused by the interaction of habitat and life opportunities arise. Urban development must be in the future, regardless of demographic changes may have reduced the processes, due to declining population numbers can be prevented. We need to create new strategies for processes of shrinking the city to prevent the structures. Through the establishment of arts and culture, for example, could include more people in urban areas will be locked. A high quality of life may be replaced by an urban planning and architecture to achieve and lead the people at the center of the scene. To ensure good quality of life in the inner cities to enforce aspects of life, people around the drift, even in schools should be encouraged. These include mainly the community, security and freedom for themselves and their families as well as a wide range of arts and culture. Culture is a way, the spaces in the inner city attractive, an exodus of people in outlying areas, and therefore a drop in the inner city to avoid. Can citizens in their living conditions and housing needs in the city, is also an identification with the respective district. The objective of the Urban Development is a creative blend people with different cultural background and lifestyle. Through an imaginative reuse of existing buildings and the cooperation of the people, politicians, planners, architects and sociologists, development and renewal of the urban structure are more likely to be reached and thus restored him to life in urban areas stop. The importance of arts and culture as an engine of urban development in the future will further increase.

KOO-PRESS INFORMATION: DOHA: Obama is already set?

United Nations Financing for Development conference in Doha in the United Nations approves a conference to discuss the financial crisis in 2009 - to reach this consensus, were numerous and important measures to combat poverty in the path.

Doha, December 2, 2008 - The body of the Episcopal Conference (KOO) welcomes the decision of the international community, a UN conference to discuss the financial crisis and its impact on development in the coming years. This was the key decision of the three-day conference to review the Monterrey Consensus in Doha, yesterday came to an end.

The impact of financial crisis felt all countries, rich or poor. But developing countries will suffer twice. Hilde Treetop, KOO representative at the conference said: "The EU and U.S. to pump billions of dollars into its economy to the worst effects of the crisis situation. Together with other measures discussed in a forum G20 of the largest nations. But more than 160 nations, including Austria, are excluded. Many of them have no direct access to financial packages in order to save its economy. It may not stand in the rain left. "

The United Nations Conference on the analysis of the financial crisis, which next year will take place, could address this unfair situation. This is the first test of the newly created "Doha consensus" is. Industrialized countries and especially the new U.S. under President Obama will have to demonstrate that - unlike here in Doha - and seriously, with the participation at the highest level, they are ready, the Monterrey Consensus into practice. In 2002, the world community agreed to "promote sustainable development and an inclusive and equitable global financial system" to fight.

The political will to make this conference a success in order to assess, it is even more important that their decisions are rather modest. Doha to achieve consensus, there were specific in the context of trade facilitation to the south, global tax justice and binding of the implementation plans of increasing ODA to the negotiation altar sacrificed. Taxes on financial transactions and innovative financing instruments for the development or strengthening of the UN Committee on fiscal issues were not included in the final document. Moreover, little new in relation to debt relief and said the small promises remain rather vague.

The entire conference rather disappointing results to the calls for help from those who are particularly interested in the current financial crisis have to suffer. Again, these votes were here in Doha over the past few days to hear clearly. KOO remains the big question of whether the conference announced for 2009 to be successful, the key challenges of a global financial architecture can jointly respond. If Barack Obama is a breakthrough win?
