15.2 SUMMARIES OF SPEECHES


15.2.1 Opening Address - H.E. Samak Sundaravej, Bangkok Governor
15.2.2 Welcome Address - Dr R.B. Singh, Assistant Director General and Regional Representative FAO-RAP
15.2.3 Achieving local partnerships for feeding Asian cities - Dr Vincent Rotgé, Asia Urbs Secretariat, Brussels
15.2.4 Stakes of North-South Cooperation - Mr Henry Chabert, Vice-President of Greater Lyon, France

15.2.1 Opening Address - H.E. Samak Sundaravej, Bangkok Governor

During the last quarter century, many Asian cities including Bangkok have experienced tremendous expansion resulting in growing demand for food, infrastructure, social facilities and improved amenities.

Other consequences of growing populations are congestion and pollution, undesirable social consequences and poverty-related diseases, increasing demand for ready-made meals raising issues of food quality and safety, and competition for agricultural lands for development of urban infrastructure, housing and industries.

Many more challenges are ahead of us as half of the population of Asia will be located in its cities by 2020. There are a number of issues we must address to ensure adequate and healthy food.

1. The policies of local authorities to resolve food problems should be clearly and objectively defined, programmes should be framed and areas for training identified.

2. Database and management information systems of local authorities must be strengthened.

3. Clear lines of authority should be demarcated to ensure food security.

4. The private sector needs the recognition and supportive policies of local authorities in supplying adequate and healthy food at a reasonable price.

Other important areas for discussion include water safety, environmental issues, improving the quality of street food, recognising and strengthening the key role of women in improving access to food.

I have raised some key issues regarding feeding growing populations, particularly the poor, in expanding Asian cities. It is important that we share experiences among our cities and develop South-South and North-South cooperation. I trust that this seminar will come up with some viable policy recommendations, action plans and support programmes for the future.

15.2.2 Welcome Address - Dr R.B. Singh, Assistant Director General and Regional Representative FAO-RAP

The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has always had food security as the cornerstone of its mandate. Over the past fifty years, the Asia-Pacific region has made tremendous progress in food security. Many nations that once experienced periodic famine are now virtually self-sufficient in food production. Community-based nutrition and poverty alleviation programmes in Thailand and Indonesia are held as models for eradicating food insecurity and poverty in the developing world.

But, there is no room for complacence. Of the world’s nearly 800 million chronically undernourished, more than 500 million are Asian. FAO projects that by 2015 there will be 576 million undernourished in the world and 52 percent of those will be Asian.

Urbanization has grown at an unprecedented rate during the last fifty years, the number of people living in cities in developing countries has increased at least four times. With increasing urbanization, higher proportions of poor people live in urban areas.

Rapid urbanization poses serious challenges for enhanced and sustained food production and distribution, especially for transport, necessary infrastructures and energy costs. Further, there will be increasingly diversified consumer demand in terms of product quality and food safety standards. These realities must be internalized in national food and agriculture policies. The rural-urban continuum and synergism must be strengthened under the “growing cities/growing food” scenario.

FAO fully recognises the key role for local governments in feeding Asian cities. They, you, are in a unique position to affect a situation of rapid change. We stand ready to offer whatever assistance we can to enable you to improve the efficiency of the food supply and distribution systems in your cities, thus freeing Asians from the fear of hunger and poverty.

15.2.3 Achieving local partnerships for feeding Asian cities - Dr Vincent Rotgé, Asia Urbs Secretariat, Brussels

The goal of this speech is twofold: 1) to discuss promising areas of decentralized cooperation in relation to the delivery and supply of food to cities; and 2) to highlight the potential of decentralized cooperation as well as the problems encountered with this type of cooperation. This speech builds on lessons drawn from the implementation of the Asia Urbs Programme initiated by the European Commission with the aim of encouraging the sharing of urban best practices and contributing to poverty alleviation efforts and socio-economic development in Asian countries.

The Asia Urbs experience in decentralized urban cooperation shows clearly that initiatives dealing with the issue of feeding Asian cities are viewed as key areas for cooperation from both the Asian and European sides. It shows also that European local governments in association with European institutions are ready to contribute money and personnel to Asia-based projects. It demonstrates that European styles of urban management, income-generation policies and agricultural engineering can prove useful in an Asian context provided they fully recognise local conditions. It often works to pool the field experience of NGOs in Asia with the urban management experience of local governments. In short, the Asia Urbs Programme shows that local initiatives can solve important challenges in feeding Asian cities.

To conclude, the decentralized cooperation initiatives promoted by the Asia Urbs Programme can make a valuable contribution to feeding Asian cities in developing relevant urban management techniques. It is desirable that such initiatives proceed in parallel with cross-disciplinary research work conducted jointly by urban development planners, agricultural engineering specialists and economists at micro and macro levels.

15.2.4 Stakes of North-South Cooperation - Mr Henry Chabert, Vice-President of Greater Lyon, France

Many mayors, city administrators and town planners now think of the city more in terms of housing, transportation, infrastructure and social frameworks than in terms of food marketing systems. Consequently, public investments are often not properly planned and municipal regulations do not reflect changes in the food economy such as shopping habits and high prices.

Municipal authorities must have mid-range (four to six years) and long-range (ten to fifteen years) strategic forecasts for the city, keeping in mind spatial, demographic and economic evolution as well as food needs. Concretely, municipalities should adopt policies and programmes in order to reduce marketing costs and prices, to stimulate employment in the field of marketing and promote urban and suburban agriculture.

The general aims of these programmes should be:

1. Reinforcing, at all levels, the focus on quality and hygiene of food for the poorest consumers.

2. Stimulating and disseminating the results of research, debates and experiments on urban FSDSs as well as formulating and executing policies and programmes at regional, inter-regional and national levels to reinforce the efficiency and dynamism of urban FSDSs.

3. Promotion of collaboration between the various institutions including technical assistance and academic partnerships.

Challenges include rapid globalization, changes in the organization of distribution networks, the need for new ways to efficiently link producers to consumers and the rapid evolution of FSDSs and consumer shopping habits.
