In the spirit of a tough sporting challenge, the 2009 Pacific Mini Games presented numerous obstacles for the Cook Islands, its people, and Government. And although the early path to ‘victory’ was very much an uphill battle I am pleased to say that those faced with the task of producing these Games did not shy away from the jobs at hand. Of course, those jobs were many and everyone from the tireless volunteers to the relentless efforts of the organisers are deserving of high praise. In the aftermath of such a major event, particularly for a small island nation like ours, the focus often falls on the nature of ‘how’ and ‘why’ we struggled with certain difficulties.

    COOK ISLANDS Te Kaveinga Nui (Pathway for Sustainable Development in the Cook Islands) Living the Cook Islands Vision – A 2020 Challenge National Sustainable Development Plan (2007- 2010) 1 FOREWORD “Te Kaveinga Nui” was developed to guide our national development into the future. It is a pathway that sets out a 15 year visionary framework called ‘Living the Cook Islands Vision – A 2020 Challenge’. The starting point for meeting our long term vision is the National Sustainable Development Plan (NSDP) 2007-2010. While comprehensive, “Te Kaveinga Nui” re-affirms our commitment to our international and regional partners through the World Summit on Sustainable Development (WSSD), Mauritius Declaration, Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), CEDAW, Multilateral Environmental Agreements (MEAs), Pacific Plan, PICTA, PACER amongst other Conventions. This ensures our development efforts are balanced across the three pillars of sustainable development: economic, environment and social growth. We are now better positioned not only to oversee the process of national development but, also, provide direction as well as bring greater focus and coordination to our nation building programs. We have emerged from a painful decade of structural and institutional adjustments as a result of national economic reforms. Moreover, new challenges facing us all have emerged as result of changing socio-economic environment, rapidly increasing globalization, an expanding private sector, resource constraints and declining national population. Government’s reliance on its annual planning process as the basis for national budget allocation was deemed inadequate. As a consequence of these experiences, government needs to take a long-term view of its development initiatives in order to better plan for these as well as emerging challenges.

UNESCO member countries can now access US$20,000 to use for Education Programs focusing on Youths and Sport Development, Mentoring and Capacity development, and assistance with Policy advice in line with the World Anti‐Doping Code. RADO’s can also apply for US$50,000 for the same purpose. To access the funds, Governments must have ratified the UNESCO International Convention against Doping in Sport. So far, only six countries in Oceania have done this (Australia, New Zealand, Cook Islands, Samoa, Nauru, Palau). Ratification involves a 2‐step process. Step 1: Sign the Copenhagen Declaration which recognizes the World Anti‐Doping Code and supports the work of WADA (World Anti‐Doping Agency). Most countries in Oceania have complied with the exception of the Marshall Islands. Step 2: Ratify the Convention so that governments can align their domestic policies with the World Anti‐Doping Code. To become a party to the Convention, contact your Foreign Affairs Ministry or the Department which is responsible for international relations within your government or the UNESCO National Commission.

    Template: Royal A, Font: , Date: 09/04/2011; 3B2 version: 9.1.406/W Unicode (May 24 2007) (APS_OT) Dir: //integrafs1/kcg/2-Pagination/TandF/RITY/ApplicationFiles/9780415670548.3d Asia-Pacific Security Dynamics in the Obama Era This book examines the critical changes to the Asia-Pacific security architecture emerging in the context of shifts in the global order as the Obama Administra- tion’s major strategic innovation and likely legacy unfold. The author reviews the state of the international security system during the Obama presidency, recording the Administration’s Asia-Pacific inheritance, and tracing its efforts to chart a collaborative course aimed at retaining US primacy amidst strategic turbulence. While security discourses are coloured by relative US ‘decline’ and China’s ‘rise,’ the book points out the competitive-cooperative complexity of interactions, with symbiotic economic ties moderating rivalry. Focusing on the military-security cutting edge of Sino-US dynamics, the narrative outlines the dangers posed by extreme nationalist dialectics in an interdependent milieu. It examines the policies of Japan, Australia, India and Russia towards the evolving Sino-US diarchy, while recording Washington’s and Beijing’scon- trasting approaches to these allies and possible adversaries. The book concludes with observations on the loss of definition and clarity as the system evolves with multiple actors bidding for influence, and the need for statesmanship as the systemic fulcrum moves from the Atlantic to the Pacific. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of International Politics, Asian Politics, American Politics, International Security and International Relations. Dr S. Mahmud Ali is an Associate at the London School of Economics IDEAS East Asia International Affairs Programme.
