MANILA - The Asian Development Bank (ADB) on Tuesday cut its 2009 growth forecast for the region's developing economies to 7.6 percent, citing tighter credit and soaring food and energy costs. The Bank urged a "more decisive tightening of monetary policies" to fight the scourge of inflation and prevent it eating away the fruits of speedy economic growth. It noted that many governments were "behind the curve" on the issue and warned the inflation problem was deepening.

DHAKA: The Asian Development Bank (ADB) said on Tuesday that it is to lend Bangladesh 170 million dollars to help cope with a rapid rise in food prices triggered in part by natural disasters. The loan, part of a package with other multilateral aid donors, "will ensure access to food supply for those hardest hit by recent natural disasters in Bangladesh and the rapid increase in food prices," the ADB said in a statement. Bangladesh was severely affected by two floods and a devastating cyclone in the second half of 2007. They caused a sharp shortfall in rice production that adversely affected "the food security of an estimated 25 million people," the ADB said. This was worsened by the rapid rise in food prices that mainly affected the poor and fixed income earners. ... Source: www.antara.co.id --- 3 days ago

Dr Enzio von Pfeil submits: Excerpts from Dr. Enzio von Pfeil's July 25, 2008, appearance on CNBC Asia: Dr. Enzio, while inflation was previously contained to food and energy, some economists say that is now spilling over to wages, triggering a wage-price spiral. They say broader inflation trends are now becoming more apparent. Do you share their view? Yes: it is only understandable that “the little guy” will feel the terrible effects of this “tax” of higher food and energy prices: it reduces his disposable income, so naturally he will seek to get more money. However, I doubt whether he will be able to do this. It all depends on how strong the unions in each country are. What are some of emerging patterns that is cause for concern? My guess is that you will not find a wage-price spiral evolving; instead, the “valve” will be rising social unrest. Indeed, we see this clearly in China. The Asian Development Bank said many Asian central banks have been behind the curve in tightening monetary policy to deal with inflation. With inflation threatening to become more serious now, what options do central bankers have? NO central Bank can fight stagflation, i.e. cost push inflation. No central Bank can: Force it to rain more (agricultural commodities) Force OPEC’s hand (oil) Force miners to resume work (South Africa’s gold miners) Tell China and India to stop growing/creating millions of jobs each year. I for one find it disgraceful that h ...
