    U N I T E D N A T I O N S N A T I O N S U N I E S THE SECRETARY-GENERAL -- ADDRESS TO INAUGURAL GLOBAL FORUM ON MIGRATION AND DEVELOPMENT Brussels, 10 July 2007 Monseigneur [Prince Philippe of Belgium] Prime Minister, Excellencies, Delegates I am honoured to welcome you to the launch of this Global Forum -- a milestone in our work to understand the connection between international migration and development, and to harness the power of one to advance the other. Let me express my deep appreciation to His Majesty King Albert of Belgium, who is recovering from a minor procedure and could not join us today. I wish him a speedy recovery. I am grateful to Prince Philippe for honouring this event with his presence, and to His Excellency Prime Minister Guy Verhofstadt, and the Government of Belgium for their gracious support and hospitality. This event would not have taken place without you. The road that brought all of us to Brussels was long. It may not have been as tortuous, nor as solitary, as the road travelled by some of the world’s 200 million migrants. But in its own way, ours was a road full of detours and obstacles. I am heartened that we have reached this stage at last. For many years, Member States of our United Nations found it hard to discuss the sensitive issue of migration in the international arena. So the topic was never high on the UN agenda -- until the High-Level Dialogue at UN Headquarters in New York last September.

Ma dopo un momento, iniziato a fine millennio scor- so, in cui quasi tutti i costruttori hanno fatto a gara per riproporre i modelli più amati del loro passato limitando il processo di modernizzazione al minimo indispensabile per poterli omologare, l’impressione è che fra i centri stile delle case si stia diffondendo un’altra tendenza, a parere di chi scrive ancora più interessante: quella delle Sport Retrò. Sportive moderne, contraddistinte dall’efficienza, efficacia, sicurezza e funzionalità a cui siamo ormai abituati, rivestite però con sovrastrutture e colora- zioni che attingono a piene mani a modelli storici o anche solo a suggestioni del marchio.

  • Princess Elisabeth Antarctica Research Station Pre-Mounted in Brussels
    Press Release International Polar Foundation, Brussels, 1 August 2007 Princess Elisabeth Antarctica Research Station Pre-Mounted in Brussels The International Polar Foundation (IPF) is pleased to announce the inauguration and public revelation of the First “Zero Emission” Research Station, which will be held at Tour & Taxis in Brussels, from the 5th to the 9th of September 2007. The building of the Princess Elisabeth research station constitutes Belgium’s most emblematic contribution to the International Polar Year 2007- 2008. Before leaving on its long trip to Antarctica, the research station will be inaugurated by Crown Prince Philippe of Belgium, Honorary President of the International Polar Foundation, on September 5th, 2007. The station will then be re-assembled in Antarctica from November 2007 to February 2008. The official inauguration ceremony is accessible upon invitation only and will allow the press and guests the opportunity to meet project designers and technical partners after an international press conference. On this occasion, the Royal Mint of Belgium will issue the first of a series of 10 euro coins, featuring the new research station. The site will be open to the general public from the 6th to the 9th of September 2007, from 10:00 am to 6:00 pm. Various exhibitions and films will cover the making of the station, climate change issues and polar research, and special conferences are scheduled on Saturday 8th and Sunday 9th of September. You will also be able to take a close look at some of the key materials and equipment used in building the new Antarctic station. Belgium’s return to Antarctica, 40 years after operations ceased at the King Baudouin base, has been made possible by the joint efforts of private enterprise, the Belgian government, the Belgian Scientific Policy Office (BELSPO), the public at large and the International Polar Foundation (IPF), which has been handling the design and construction of the base.
