"We have much to learn from the experiences of other
countries. We would be keen to know how conditional cash
transfer programmes have worked successfully to ensure
targeted subsidy provision to the poor in many countries, or
how some countries have masterminded environmental concerns in
their national development plans," Mukherjee said.
India's experience in poverty alleviation, education,
cooperatives, women's thrift and credit groups, and NREGA
could provide valuable lessons to other developing countries,
especially African nations, he said.
"The Indian experience in implementing economic reforms,
in the development of IT sector, building of infrastructure
through the PPP model, in the opening up and rapid growth of
the telecom sector, setting up of centres of excellence in
encouraging and management education, could help other
developing countries to face and overcome similar development
challenges," the Finance Minister said.
Mukherjee hoped the donor countries would continue to
support the facility and the south-south development agenda.
He called the South-South Experience Exchange Facility a
creative initiative and said, "I encourage our developing
country partners to take advantage of this facility and learn
from each other."
"Many developing countries may not have enough financial
resources, but many have very rich developmental knowledge.
Oftentimes, knowledge is equally, if not more important, than
financial support. It is our hope that with all of us working
together, we can seize the South-South opportunity to promote
common development," he added. PTI IND
