This report discusses the remarks delivered by Paul Wolfowitz, President of the World Bank. He discusses about the issue of a potential conflicts in the committee. He talks about his full responsibilities for the details to make understand the upcoming proposals and reasonable outcomes. He strongly passionate about his works and think together we have made some progress in enabling this institution to respond more effectively and rapidly both in poor countries and in middle income countries to carry on the fight against poverty. He concludes saying that, he judged for what he is doing now and what we can do together moving forward.
In his opening remarks, President of the World Bank, Paul Wolfowitz said that the international community needs to do much more and faster and take advantage of this unique opportunity that Liberians have now, after 25 years of instability, to take control of their destiny. Liberia’s $3.7 billion debt is clearly unsustainable and an unacceptable burden. He called on the international community to work together to clear the arrears so that the country can move forward. He paid tribute to what he terms as the “inspirational leadership of Ellen Johnson Sirleaf,” and added that this new hope must not be allowed to fade away. He said that “Those who remember the horror of the past can hardly imagine that Liberia has now become a place of hope.

Across Africa, crumbling infrastructure has held back business expansion and opportunities in international markets. Today, an entrepreneur in Central Africa pays more than three times what his Chinese counterpart pays to transport a container the same distance. For that African entrepreneur, the path out of poverty is literally a paved road. The education for all fast-track initiative has encouraged a growing number of countries, the majority of them in Africa, to develop credible plans for increasing primary school enrollment, especially of girls. Africa is the first priority, but it cannot be the only priority. Today, two-thirds of the world's poor live in middle-income countries in Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East. The number of people living in extreme poverty in Brazil, China, and India, put together, is almost twice the number for Sub-Saharan Africa. Throughout the world-including, importantly, in the developing world-there is a growing recognition that the path to prosperity must be built on a solid foundation of good governance. 'Without governance, all other reforms will have limited impact.' That was the conclusion from last year's commission on Africa. And it is the view the author have heard on sidewalks and in taxicabs, in the marbled halls of ministries, and in rundown shacks of shantytowns.
