ADB review - Volume 36, no.4
Dedolph, Carolyn | August 2004
Abstract
ADB Review reports on development news from Asia and the Pacific and on the activities of the Asian Development Bank, which publishes the magazine six times a year. Opinions and materials in ADB Review do not necessarily reflect the official views of ADB. It had been 34 years since the Republic of Korea hosted an ADB annual meeting, and for the 37th Annual Meeting of the Board of Governors of the Asian Development Bank in May, the Government pulled out all the stops. The event opened on an upbeat note with a blaze of Korean culture in a presentation entitled “Light of Dawn,” featuring traditional singers, dancers, drummers, and instrumentalists. This followed the successful conclusion in Seoul of the eighth replenishment of ADB’s concessional financing instrument, the Asian Development Fund. This issue of ADB Review highlights the meeting’s events.
