FT very rich this week.
FT has been quite rich in things that concern me or simply interest. First, the Arafat coverage. Pantom mentioned this, but I should reflect on their article, I tangentially know or know of the players. Very loose, but an opp to reflect on what I used to hear.
Second Wolfe has an interesting article on aid flows, must reflect on that.
Third, US has just put out a tender for some major development programs and potential bidders are crawling all over the place. Having seen the RFP now - some of it is financial sector - I need to make some comments on the wrong headedness of it all. The short version: "The US continues to think MENA c. 2005 = E. Europe c. 1990."
Well, I suppose when you have only a hammer....
