[governance] my humble proposal to add one para

[Deirdre Williams]

I agree with Izumi but like Anriette's suggestion. This is a frightful
generalisation but it seems to me that disasters have something in
common with the developing world - if you are not in it then you
watch, express sympathy with the difficulties, and get on with your
life. Somehow disasters and the developing world need to be brought
"inside" the issues being discussed.
Sorry - only just woke up
