There are times when a man has to be born again if he wishes to be saved. So it is with institutions, so it is
with nations. This is why no better venue than South Africa could have been chosen for UNCTAD at the
hour of its Renaissance.
As this most brutal of centuries draws painfully to its end, what is happening here restores our faith in the
brotherhood of man, in the power of the human spirit to heal and to forgive.
South Africa is our sole consolation for the massacres of Bosnia and Rwanda. It is a living proof that miracles
of peace and reconciliation still exist in our day.
We were the contemporaries of Hitler and Eichmann, of Stalin and Beria. But we can proudly say that we are
also the contemporaries of President Nelson Mandela, whose generosity, whose wisdom of the heart made
this miracle possible.
For the honour of sharing with you this unique and privileged moment of your History, of human History, we
say thanks to the Government and people of South Africa, whose example will inspire us to be no less bold in
the attempt to reinvent our partnership and no less successful in giving birth to a new institution.
As the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Dr. Boutros Boutros-Ghali, noted in his able summary of
Saturday's two high-level round tables, globalization and the unification of markets are both "a new reality and
an irreversible reality". It is, in my view, the culmination of a long historical process of contacts and unification
of cultures and civilizations that began in the sixteenth century with what later came to be known as "The Age
of Discoveries".
How to promote growth and sustainable development within the context of these two widely accepted
realities: finding ways to take advantage of opportunities that arise and working together to minimize the
higher risks that flow from these phenomena, especially to the most vulnerable, is the key challenge before us
at this ninth session of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development.
