International Organizations stop nations from reaching their full potential

Thank you for a once again speedy reply, and to keep me busy on this lazy Saturday -="it only shows that IMF has the ability to do so, in order to be relevant you must show that it has done so."=- I apologize for creating the same mistake in a row. While i will admit that it is hard to find something where the IMF acted entirely out of interest, i can find many were they have left out a few nations in order to save a few pennies. If anyone recalls the 1997 Asian Financial Crisis, you will remember that it started with an entirely different international organization, and ended with the IMF. ASEAN is the Association of Southeast Asian Nations. They are considered the NAFTA of Southeast Asia. [1] During the 1997 economic crisis five of some of Asia's most economically sound nations crashed. Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines, and South Korea. I will not go into what happened and how it came about, i will simply say that here is where the IMF failed big time. They dished out 40 billion USD to bail out South Korea, Thailand, and Indonesia. But what about the Philippines and South Korea? If you did not already know there was a similar resolution where all the nations where included, but Germany and the USA (with 20% of the vote together) decided that it was ultimately too costly to include all nations. Despite the fact that the first resolution was backed by almost all of Africa, Southeast Asia, and South America it failed anyway. The Philippines at one point had 0.00% economic growth. Unheard of in the international community. The Philippines had to go under a grueling slow crawl back into the game, taking an ultimate 3 years for it to recover fully. This is an example of larger powers using its economic power in the IMF to serve its own interests, and leave out others. [2] The IMF was set up in order to help nations. Nations are required, as part of the IMF mandate to donate part of their GDP the the funds of which the IMF can use. [3] This negates your point of "so the worst case scenario in this situation is that we are in the same situation we would be in if the IMF did not exist, so you can not say it is harming the little country." The developing nation has lost money as part of the IMF and has nothing to show for it. -="explain relevance." =- Relevance is that the international community wanted for INGOs to help people. This is the case with the forerunner of all INGOs the LON. Yet they haven't achieved a thing. -="In response to this argument, i read your resource [4], and i could not find the part that said the economy would recover faster. In fact, it specifically states that "The only role the UN has played has been to evacuate (white) Europeans", please point out, the area in the article that supports your argument."=- The entire article as a whole has stated that letting the UN intervene is a bad idea for the host nation and the international community. It clearly states that in order to help the nations the UN should not give the false pretense of saviors, but merely aid bringers. Therefore the article as a whole clearly supports my point. [4] However you did point out a paragraph that i did miss that further supports my point i made in round 1, point 2: INGOs like the UN lack the speed and power to help nations in their time of need, often crippling them to the point of no recovery. They therefor offer a bleak hope to nations in need. You said "The only role the UN has played has been to evacuate (white) Europeans", what you failed to mention however is the other quote found not even a line away form that one "It included footage of people being clubbed to death within about 300m of UN forces and also of an incident where a woman was dragged past UN soldiers to be hacked to death with a machete. They just stood and watched." What the Serbs, Croats, and Bosnians thought that they where going to get was a force that would come in and stop the violence. Instead they got a fake force that was sent there to evacuate people. A task that they did rather poorly as 400'000 people died. [5] "DPRK=North Korea" I am well aware... what is your point? -="I read the economy section about North Korea, your source [5], and, at the time i read it, it sounds like North Korea is doing nicely with stable economic growth"=- The average monthly salary of a North Korean is... wait for it.... wait for it..... 47 USD. Whilst the chart did show stable growth, that damage has been done. 1% growth into 47 dollars is five cents a year. North Korea and South Korea have very similar geography, similar resources, the people have the same genetics, and are relatively the same build. There are some very big differences. South Korea has the 14th highest GDP in the world. North Korea is 97th. South Korea has a labor force of 24.7 Million. North Korea is at 20 Million.[8][9] This is a picture of the Korean Peninsula at night.[7] It is no secret that the energy consumption of a nation is directly proportional to the economy of the nation, and there we see the stark reality. What make these two nations, that have shared thousands of years of history, so different? The answer is the UN backing of South Korea while it imposes sanctions on North Korea. I understand your point on not being able to find UN sanctions concerning anything other then Uranium enrichment for the IAEA, however there have been both economic, militaristic, and Diplomatic sanctions imposed on the North Koreans.Here is a 15 page document of the sanctions currently imposed on North Korea [10] Before the Korean War (1950-1953) both parts of the nations had similar economies with similar growth. [11] The power the United States has gained through the UN has turned a grudge into an international economic war. [1] http://en.wikipedia.org... [2] http://en.wikipedia.org...
