Second Korea-Africa forum: statement by Mr. Abdoulie Janneh, UN Under Secretary General and Executive Secretary of ECA 24 November 2009, Seoul, Republic of Korea
This Statement delivered by Mr. Abdoulie Janneh, UN Under-Secretary-General and Executive Secretary of ECA at the Second Korea-Africa Forum. Mr. Janneh, on his remarks highlighted that, the meeting, the comes at a crucial moment because it will provide an opportunity for African countries to learn from the Korean experience in managing crisis and in generating impressive levels of development, as well as provide an opportunity for Korea to support African efforts to recover from crisis, restart growth and revert to a path of sustainable development. A key factor in Korea’s successful economic and social transformation is the quality of its PPPs. Korea has an outstanding track record of establishing and supporting pertinent institutions, such as development banks, trade promotion agencies and trading companies. The sharing of Korea’s successful experiences in PPP implementation and institution building for the promotion of trade and investment can play a catalytic role in responding to Africa’s needs and growing demand for the implementation of PPPs in partnership with domestic and foreign private sector. The Second Korea-Africa Forum will cement and consolidate the already existing good relationship between Korea and Africa and lead to tangible results in the areas in which African countries need support for the mutual benefit of Koreans and Africans.
