World Bank and IMF weblog
The following posts are from Peter Hardstaff's visit to the World Bank and IMF meetings in Singapore in September of 2006.
The meetings were contraversal since WDM campaigner Martin Powell was originally refused entry to Singapore. In addition to Martin, over 30 other campaigners from around the world were effectively banned from the meetings - a move which made a mockery of the Bank and Fund's attempts to portray themselves as open and democratic organisations.
