 note = {The main focus of the present international assistance to developing countries is poverty reduction. But the target is directed to Sub-Saharan Africa. As far as we focus upon the poverty reduction in Sub-Sahara, the possibility ti attain the poverty reduction in MDGs is simply zero. The total 65% of poor people lived in Asia in 1990. The poverty rate in East Asia decreased from 33% in 1990 to 14% by 2002. UNMDG poverty reduction can attain only if we focus upon Asia (especially poor people in three countries, India, China and Indonesia, consist 55% of the world poor). MDGs focus upon social development for poverty reduction. But the East Asian development experience set the economic growth to be the main road of poverty reduction once again.”The problem the world's poor face is not the bad growth but the lack of growth. In economics growth strategy, macro-economy, infrastructure building and FDI occupy the central status. The second important factor is governance which sets the public policy for supporting economic development. This point is the second important point in this article. The third important factor is promotion policy of SME/MSEs (Micro and Small Enterprises) which is far more important than microfinance to the poor from the viewpoint of employment opportunities.},
