Economic growth in the past year exceeded the early forecasts and the prospects for continued growth for the global economy and for developing countries in particular is now much brighter. For developing countries, growth of 4.6 per cent in 2000 and 4.8 in 2001 is projected. While acknowledging that various reforms are required by developing countries themselves, these are not sufficient to deal with poverty at the scale as seen in most developing countries.

Likewise, two years before the great and courageous march of the women on the Union Buildings, a group of many of the same women met in the Trades Hall of Johannesburg.

We have a framework to do this in the Skills development Levy, a fund designed to allow the private sector to help finance skills development in our economy. Africa as a continent loses more capital and skills than anywhere else in the world. Now it's more like a creditors union with powerful countries dictating the terms of development to the poorest part of the world. [highlighted result]

The mark of cruelty is still manifest in the poverty we suffer, in the inequality in our country, in the appalling legacy of inferior education, in ongoing racism. Our central challenge then must be the challenge of development. It is the challenge of development, but specifically it is the challenge of sustainable development. [highlighted result]
