		<description><![CDATA[SPC - The problem with the UNDP getting involved in trade is it is not dealing with the countries that prevent trade. Teaching Ethiopians to trade with Kenyans isn&#039;t going to make a huge difference. Getting the French to stop being protectionist fools for their agriculturalhorticultural products and open up their markets to the Kenyans and Ethiopians will make a difference.

Clean energy is just a fad. Efficient energy is a better way to help with bringing countries out of poverty. 

But regardless, it sounds like Helen has overstepped her departments brief by a long way... if Fox news&#039; source can be believed.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;UNDP has spread itself across a growing range of activities in the name of promoting “development” –from environmental projects to trade promotion and border management—that “dilute” its anti-poverty effort.&quot;

Wow, they mean to say they didn&#039;t expect comrade clark to involve her department in more than it is meant to... they couldn&#039;t have picked a worse person for the job then. Perhaps they should have looked at the increase in presence of the NZ government of NZ&#039;ers life before employing a lady that has never did anything outside of being a freaking political leach her whole life. 

Shit - we couldn&#039;t even have a shower or buy bread without her trying to involve her government and regulate the experience.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So all it is supposed to take to end world poverty is $1B a year from UNDP? Just $1B a year? 

That is less than .7% GDP for many of the nations that promised this much aid to combat poverty back in the 1970&#039;s. Less than .7% of the GDP of Japan or UK or France or Germany. 

Much much greater amounts than $1B pa from UNDP have been provided to reduce poverty.  

And failure to do this without some means to quantifying what it is achieving has to change? 

And how much office cost is there in quantifying the value of various aid programmes. Formulating the methods, carrying out the evaluation and writing up the reports etc etc.  

Unless the UNDP gets enough money to do this properly, it&#039;s not worth it. The UNDP is a low level pretence that the UN is involved in this work - in reality national governments control aid programmes worth a lot lot more and they often have national interests in play.]]></description>

She is a typical product of the far left, a bully, a thug and a power crazy authoritarian. 

She has never fitted in and hates humanity. She wants to distort the world into a place where social freaks like her are held in awe. Well it ain&#039;t going to happen bitch.]]></description>
