Quiet success story in Iraq: revamped banking system
The Economist has this article up re: the success of the CPA in slowly revamping the disastrous banking system in Iraq.Small brag / recognition of a player in that revamp - an older banker acquaintance of mine came out of retirement to play an important role in this effort. There are a number of people like him who lived for a year+ in small rooms, sleeping on cots and working hard to help the Iraqis succeed while ducking occasional mortar attacks. Some of them could be home in rather comfortable settings instead. Without naming names, kudos to my friend, his patient and brave wife and the dog I bred, who misses her favorite lap while heâs away. Posted by: rkb 2004-06-25 |
