UN机构：工业化要选择正确产品

A United Nations agency is offering what it calls a "conceptual breakthrough" to uplift the world's poorest people. The U.N. Industrial Development Organization contends selective industrialization offers the best chance for smaller, developing countries to achieve sustainable economic progress. But the backers of the plan acknowledge the global economic crisis will make needed investment difficult to attract.

Choosing the right products to make for the global market is key, if low-income and slow-growing countries want to break free of the poverty trap. That is the critical point in the 2009 Industrial Development Report of the United Nations Industrial Development Organization.

The U.N. agency is calling for the World Trade Organization to give preference to exports from the least developed manufacturing countries. It also wants developed countries to liberalize trade rules to allow the poorest an opportunity to create viable manufacturing export industries.

The U.N. agency says such changes would benefit what it terms the "bottom billion" - the people who are subsisting on less than one dollar a day.

But the UNIDO's South Asia representative, Philippe Scholtes, acknowledges the gloomy international economic situation will make it more difficult, in the next five to 10 years, for underdeveloped countries to realize value-creating manufacturing hubs.

"The global crisis will certainly have an impact for these bottom billion," Scholtes said. "The emphasis on building up physical infrastructures, human infrastructures and developing technological capabilities may be put somewhat aside."

The U.N. agency is highlighting a number of manufacturing clusters as potential templates for other countries to create manufacturing export successes. These include Chennai India's leather industry; the button-manufacturing cluster in Qiaotou in China's Zhejiang Province; the automotive sector in Indonesia's capital, Jakarta; and, the computer components hub of Otigba, Nigeria.

The U.N. report notes India's rapid export growth in the first half of the decade made South Asia the fastest growing region in manufactured exports, following by the Middle East and North Africa.

The report was released Monday in New Delhi, London and other cities. The UNIDO, headquartered in Vienna, is a specialized United Nations agency mandated to promote industrial development and international industrial cooperation.

UN机构：工业化要选择正确产品

联合国的一个机构提出了一个它所说的“概念性的突破”来使世界上最贫穷的人摆脱贫困。联合国工业发展组织称，有选择性的工业化为比较小的发展中国家获得可持续的经济发展提供了最好的机会。不过，这个计划的支持者承认，全球性的经济危机将使这个计划难以获得所需要的投资。

如果低收入以及发展缓慢的国家要想摆脱贫困这个陷阱，选择生产为全球市场所需要的正确产品是一个关键。这是联合国工业发展组织在2009年工业发展报告中所提出的关键论点。

*吁为最不发达国家提供优惠*
 
这个联合国机构呼吁世界贸易组织给那些最不发达的制造业国家的出口提供优惠。它还要求发达国家将有关的贸易规则进一步自由化，从而允许最贫穷的人有机会创造一个可行的出口制造工业。
 
联合国工业发展组织说，这样的改变将使数十亿处于底层的人从中获益。这些人每天靠不到1美元的生活费聊以度日。
 
但是这个联合国机构驻南亚的代表菲利普.朔尔特斯承认，目前黯淡的国际经济状况将使不发达国家在今后5到10年的时间里很难成为创造价值的制造业中心。
 
他说：“目前的全球危机显然将对这些处于底层的数十亿人造成影响。改善物质基础设施、人力基础设施以及发展技术能力等重要任务可能要被放到一边。”
 
*南亚制造业出口增长最快*

这个机构挑选了一些制造业集群作为其他国家创造制造业出口成功的潜在典范。这些产业集群包括印度清奈的皮革业，位于中国浙江省桥头的钮扣生产基地，印度尼西亚首都雅加达的汽车行业以及尼日利亚欧提巴(Otigba)的计算机部件制造中心。
 
这份联合国的报告还指出，印度在2001年到2005年期间出口的快速增长使得南亚成为制造产品出口增长最快的地区，其次是中东和北非。
 
这份报告是星期一在新德里、伦敦和其他城市同时发表的。总部位于维也纳的联合国工业发展组织是联合国的一个专设机构，宗旨是促进工业发展以及国际工业合作。
