  • Country Economic Review
    Federated States of Micronesia Proceedings March 28 to April 2, 2004 Palikir, Pohnpei, Federated States of Micronesia FOREWORD To all participants of the 3rd FSM Economic Summit, I wish to thank you for your contributions to a successful Summit. I fully agree with the Floor Leader of the Pohnpei State Legislature, Fernando Scaliem, who said in his closing remarks, “I am confident that the results of this Summit will provide us with a realistic and viable road map for the future growth of our Nation.” I am pleased to see that broad participation was achieved during the Summit, including key contribu- tions from our traditional leaders, church groups, non-governmental and international donor organiza- tions. The spirited discussions during plenary sessions are a clear indication of the level importance our Nation’s representatives brought to this meeting. I wish to thank all of the Summit’s participants for their dedication and hard work. The goals of our Summit were to (a) increase awareness of the Compact, as amended; (b) achieve consensus on an overall economic strategy; and (c) improve the monitoring mechanisms to support economic growth. I’d like to take a moment to address these. As our nation continues on its journey toward economic self-reliance, we clearly face many chal- lenges, not least including the structure of the amended Compact with the annual decrement and par- tial inflation adjustment. The Select Committee formed during the Summit has chosen a high-growth scenario, and the Summit has endorsed this choice as well. This decision for economic growth will require an initial investment in reforms but will ultimately lead to a sustainable economy.
