ADB Review - 38th Annual Meeting Istanbul, Turkey
Dwyer, Graham | June 2005
Abstract
Since ancient times, Istanbul has served as the bridge between Europe and Asia. So its choice as the venue for the Asian Development Bank (ADB)’s 38th Annual Meeting in May seemed particularly apt, representing a meeting point—both physical and symbolic— for the Governors from ADB’s developed and developing member countries. Adding to the palpable excitement surrounding the choice of host city were several important firsts this year—the first ADB Annual Meeting to be held in Turkey, the first to be held in Europe since 1998, and the first for the new ADB President, Haruhiko Kuroda, who took office on 1 February.
