Statement by Mr. K. Y. Amoako, Executive Secretary of the Economic Commission for Africa at the Tokyo Conference on Development Strategy; Meeting the Development Challenges facing Africa in the 21st Century: The Role of ECA. Mr. Amoako, on his remarks highlighted that, Africa is the biggest challenge for the UN itself. As the Secretary-General, Dr. Boutros-Ghali, has warned in launching the Agenda for Development: `the failure to help improve the human condition of a whole continent would be a moral and political defeat for the UN. Africa remains the great test of an effective agenda for development.' African landscape is not one un differentiated mass. It is a mosaic, a spectrum, within which, as we go towards the 21st century, there is a new Africa emerging. A sustainable environment for Africa, occupying one quarter of the earth's landmass, is crucial in stabilizing the planetary environment. A key element of the strategy for becoming competitive in the world economy is to strengthen regional economic integration in Africa.
