PAKISTAN:
Amb. Munir Akram announced his country's five-year
action plan to implement Agenda 21 in partnership with NGOs, the
private sector and the media. He identified five areas in which
cooperation or lack of it determines the sustainable development of
all countries: financial flows, trade, technology flows,
consumption patterns and population. Economic and human
development, as well as environmental protection, are elements of
sustainable development. He said that the Secretariat should
prepare a comprehensive report on sustainable development and
trade. He thought that the unilateral actions of countries hosting
sectoral meetings should not determine the CSD's programme of work.
