Catching Up at Different Speeds

Many of them have rejoined their families.

Young people, housewives and children. They are all running.

That is today s Europe in a nutshell, with America not far behind.

India s experience offers hope to other development late comers.

Its consequences are about to catch up with America, and the world.

Unless we learn how to respect it, we will all miss the boat.

Growth took off in China. The Chinese started catching up very quickly with the United States.

A democratic Russia would want to catch up with the West and integrate into Western institutions.

Earlier cases of successful economic catch up, such as the US or Germany, were no different.

The United States elected a black man president. And now we are in a phase in which Asia is catching up with the West and American hegemony is being challenged.

In 2002 a special effort was made to catch up', during which the police submitted more cases.

Coherent programs to promote economic catch up are relatively straightforward.

If Germany provided this kind of leadership, other countries would be quick to follow.

But their ability to grow is being impaired because they lack the resources to confront the massive business lobbies of the EU s most developed and richest countries.

Many Europeans doubt that Asia can catch up with Europe in terms of regional integration.

While it may be difficult to argue against a set of clear and transparent rules for what companies like Google and Yahoo can and cannot do within other nations, this step forward seems to have merely highlighted the lack of larger scale changes that many Cubans and Cuban Americans may be hoping for.

We tried to follow up on their plans and how they are doing it. Bella and I decided to go spontaneously and took advice from them as well as people on the ground.

They were able to chase off one of the poachers and recover this ivory, because they couldn't leave it there, because it's still valuable.

To begin, the national champions of the catch up phase must be rendered accessible to competitive assault.

Merely waxing lyrical about the benefits of education will do nothing to help Latin American and Caribbean countries catch up with developed countries.

The United States caught up with their Soviet rivals, landing the first man on the Moon in 1969.

Some developing countries, especially in Africa, are late starters and their markets are relatively underdeveloped.

We don't know, maybe Mr. Klee was probably in a hurry, I mean maybe he had to catch a plane, or something.

When Sweeney's aircraft arrived at the assembly point for his flight off the coast of Japan, Big Stink failed to make the rendezvous.

Without relatively high savings, a developing country like China may never catch up.

Asia may have caught up with the West Latin America may be on track to do so and Africa may be slowly positioning itself to grow.

Russia can then forget about attaining the fast, sustainable growth that China has achieved.

It is not likely that China (or others) will soon close that gap with the US.

As a consequence of these blockages, Bosnia and Herzegovina risked falling behind all its neighbours on the road to Euro Atlantic integration.

Clearly, if that alarming trend continues, our ability to catch up with the Millennium Development Goals will continue to slip.

In cases where the detainee could not afford a lawyer, one was appointed and his expenses were paid by the State.

Tom paid for the tickets.

Sami paid with his life.

Apparently, the official amount perceived from public funds was included in this foundation, thus leading the Belgian government to reduce that amount.

They may have difficulty paying the cost of transportation to and from a clinic, or for expenses such as a babysitter.

Concerning measures to ensure payment of alimony, there were both criminal and civil sanctions to enforce payment.

And they moved in, and decided not to pay me any rent.

The bill still has to be paid today.

Sami pushed the dog out.

Sami paid all that money.

Sami paid some extra money.

4130 Advance payment of customs duties

If that happened, other countries Australia, New Zealand, and, most importantly, India might seek to jump on the bandwagon.

For example, Apple s iPhone and Boeing s latest airplane rely heavily on Japanese patented innovations. These comparative advantages may keep Japan above water for a while, but only until China or South Korea catch up.
