  • Kuala Lumpur pulled out all the stops in its preparation for the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) summit last month. The 114 heads of government and heads of state attending would have found that the beautiful high-tech airport's trouble-prone baggage system had been overhauled under the supervision of transport minister Ling Liong Sik. The system, which embarrassingly failed when the airport was opened in 1998, has now been declared fixed.
  • IT WAS THE kind of grouping that could only happen at Davos. Five Latin American presidents were assembled in one place in February, for a panel discussion: Alvaro Uribe of Colombia, Eduardo Duhalde of Argentina, Alejandro Toledo of Peru, Vicente Fox of Mexico, and Lula of Brazil.

  • Pity small investors. After three years of being kicked around by the markets, now they're being kicked by the people who encouraged them to have a punt in the first place.
  • Bankers have long been fond of jargon and they do a good line in euphemisms too. As we reported in December, some will do anything to avoid actually saying that the economy is in tatters and people are being sacked.
  • Not so long ago, a large stake in Deutsche Telekom would have been a nice asset for any company to have on the balance sheet. When telecom companies were all the rage, such holdings could be sold for a healthy profit. By last year, however, such a block of shares was far more of a millstone than a jewel.
