L'Organizzazione mondiale della Sanità (Oms) ha calcolato che l’inquinamento dell’aria causa 530mila morti ogni anno in Asia: le metropoli del continente riportano tassi di inquinamento che superano di 5 volte Parigi, Londra e New York e di 5-6 volte il livello massimo consigliato dall’Oms. E’ quanto emerge dalla "Conferenza 2006 per la miglior qualità dell’aria" conclusasi a Yogyakarta in Indonesia la settimana scorsa. La città più inquinata è Pechino con 142 microgrammi di particelle inquinanti per metro cubo d’aria, rispetto ai 22 di Parigi, i 24 di Londra e i 27 di New York. Proprio a causa di questi dati, il Comitato Olimpico Internazionale ha avvertito la capitale cinese che “rischia di perdere i Giochi, se non fa qualcosa per migliorare la qualità della sua aria”. Un rapporto dell’Asian Development Bank prevede però che in Asia l’emissione dei gas serra triplicherà in 25 anni.

King Jigme Singye of Bhutan made headlines in December by suddenly abdicating and handing the throne to his Oxford-educated son, Jigme Geshar. He has also pledged to grant some measure of democracy by holding elections in 2008. He has not, however, explained the motivation behind his precipitate action, says Murari R. Sharma.

Perdagangan bebas dalam pertanian semakin menyudutkan petani. Para petani tidak mampu bersaing dengan sumber pangan impor yang jauh lebih murah. Jika pemerintah tidak menerapkan kebijakan yang melindungi sektor pertaniannya maka Indonesia akan sulit mencapai ketahanan pangan.

"Tsunamin jälkeiseen jälleenrakennukseen saadusta runsaasta avusta huolimatta ihmisarvoinen elämä ei ole katastrofista selvinneille vieläkään itsestäänselvyys. Syynä on hallitusten ja kansalaisyhteiskunnan kangistuminen byrokratian kaavoihin. Selvinneillä itsellään ei ole jälleenrakennuksessa paljon sananvaltaa. He ovat jumiutuneet jokapäiväisestä elämästä selviämiseen", kansalaisjärjestöt muistuttavat kaksi vuotta tsunamin jälkeen.
