A G20 presidency to amplify South Asia’s voice

The Hindu  

At a time of both potential and peril, India has taken over the G20 presidency. India has an opportunity to effectively voice the socio-economic aspirations of South Asia’s 1.8 billion people, representing one-third of the global poor and as also one of the world’s fastest growing markets. As South Asia’s largest country with the largest economy and significant global clout, India is well poised to represent the subcontinent at these international fora. Hence, India can draw attention to issues that are significant for South Asia and the entire developing world, ensuring greater momentum for those nations not represented in the G20. For South Asia, it is important that multilateral organisations and development finance institutes supporting economic development and good governance are reformed as these countries are major stakeholders for these global institutes.
