SBY to Submit Post-MDGs to UN

Nusa Dua (Antara Bali) - President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono will submit recommendations from the fourth meeting of the UN High-Level Panel of Eminent Persons on the Post-2015 Development Agenda to UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon on May 31.

"God willing by the end of May the product of the panel's meeting will be submitted to the UN and I myself will submit it to UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon at the UN Headquarters in New York on May 31, after being  officially named to represent the panel for it," he said before leading a meeting with the National Economic Committee here on Thursday.

He said the 24 panel members and three co-chairs have met four times namely in New York in 2012, London in 2012, Monrovia in 2013 and in  Bali recently.

They have discussed two main components that must exist for the new development agenda after 2015 to continue the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) to "end poverty in our era" and assure that development still remains based on the concept of sustainable development combining economic, social and environment aspects.

In the fourth meeting in Bali they agreed to issue a joint communique to build and revive global partnership, protect the environment, global consumption and production, strengthen implementation means and data supplies and accountability to measure achievement. (*/DWA/IGT)
