联合国说，2010年东亚和南亚将引领全球经济温和复苏。联合国是星期二在曼谷发布的年度经济报告中作出上述预测的。报告说，如果政府继续实行刺激政策，预计今年全球经济将增长2.4%。但联合国说，如果政府过早取消经济刺激措施，全球经济可能再度滑坡。
预计今年东亚地区国民生产总值将增长6.7%，居全球首位，其次将是南亚，增幅将达5.5%。联合国一位资深经济学家说，这两个地区都比发达国家更好地经受住了这次危机。发展中国家经济预计增速将达5.3%。但联合国说，金融危机迫使欠发达的亚洲和非洲国家的人不得不接受没有社会保障的工作，现在全球各地有更多有工作的穷人。
The United Nations says East and South Asia will lead a mild recovery in the global economy in 2010.The world body makes the prediction in its annual economic report, issued Tuesday in Bangkok. The report says the global economy should experience 2.4 percent growth this year, if supportive policies continue.But the U.N. says the global economy could go through another slump if governments withdraw stimulus measures too early.
East Asia is expected to see its gross domestic product rise this year by 6.7 percent, the highest in the world, followed by South Asia’s 5.5 percent.A senior economist for the U.N. says both regions have weathered the crisis better than developed nations.
Developing nation economies are expected to grow at a pace of 5.3 percent. However, the U.N. says the financial crisis pushed people in developing Asia and Africa into jobs with no social protection, and there are more working poor around the world.
