"Нэг суурин-Нэг бүтээгдэхүүн" хөтөлбөр сумаас дэлхийд гарах брэндийн хөтөч
19 January 2012
“Нэг суурин-Нэг бүтээгдэхүүн” (НСНБ) гэдэг нь “Орон нутаг ба дэлхий нийт” гэсэн ойлголт. Хэдийгээр тэс өөр ойлголт ч орон нутгийн гэж үздэг зүйлийг улам боловсронгуй болгож сайжруулснаар дэлхий нийтийн болгож болдог аж. Тухайлбал Англид орон нутгийн чанартай байсан хөл бөмбөг өнөөдөр дэлхий нийтийнх болсон төдийгүй хөл бөмбөгийн дэлхийн аваргыг бүхий л улс орны иргэд шимтэн сонирхдог. Үүнтэй адил НСНБ хөтөлбөрийн гол үндсэн зарчим энэ юм гэж Японы Ойта мужийн НСНБ олон улсын солилцооны хорооны Ерөнхийлөгч Морихико Хирамацу хэлсэн байдаг.

The revenue generated from Mongolia’s abundant natural resources should benefit all of its citizens, United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Administrator Helen Clark said today wrapping up her three-day official visit to the country. 
“I am convinced that natural resources can drive human development if they are managed in transparent, inclusive, and sustainable ways,” Clark said today at an international conference on extractive industries. “UNDP exists to support human development, and we want to see the wealth that a country has actually flow through to lift living standards on a more uniform basis,” she added.  “We’ve seen so many cases where extractive industry booms generate a lot of GDP growth and wealth, but it doesn’t affect poverty reduction.”

Эрдэс, шатахууны экспорт нь Австрали, Канад, Норвег зэрэг өндөр хөгжсөн зарим улс орны эдийн засагт чухал байр эзэлдэг нь үнэн хэдий ч байгалийн баялаг экспортлогч орнуудын дийлэнх нь хөгжиж буй ертөнцийн орнууд байгааг анхаарах хэрэгтэй.
