The Committee regrets these developments and trusts that proper planning in future will avoid the pitfalls of recent experience (see para. 26 below).

Yet, despite this seemingly neat set of rules, the question of the effect of armed conflict on treaties continues to be ridden with pitfalls.

We encourage networks among governments, international agencies and water providers so that best practices and successful models may be shared, pitfalls avoided, and the common good be served with justice and quality.

In this context, it was noted that some countries had learned from experience and had eliminated pitfalls by drafting new model bilateral investment treaties (BITs), taking into account the technical difficulties of the past.

But there are serious pitfalls to avoid in this process. As the Asian financial crisis of 1997 1998 demonstrated, capital account liberalization could lead to financial meltdowns a danger that opponents of internationalizing the renminbi often cite.

My delegation concurs with the findings of World Youth Report 2005, which posits that one of the pitfalls in the implementation of the Programme of Action was that a formal mechanism for quantifying progress or regress was not implemented.

Early on, when you're working in a new area of science, you have to think about all the pitfalls and things that could lead you to believe that you had done something when you hadn't, and, even worse, leading others to believe it.

But, in the end, it takes more than strong policy and analytical skills to deal with tough economic challenges. We have seen unfortunate examples of that repeatedly in the West in recent years, and there are no guarantees that China s newly installed leaders will avoid comparable pitfalls.

Economists have identified six pitfalls that can afflict natural resource exporters commodity price volatility, crowding out of manufacturing, Dutch disease (a booming export industry causes rapid currency appreciation, which undermines other exporters competitiveness), inhibited institutional development, civil war, and excessively rapid resource depletion (with insufficient saving).

But, in order to establish a global energy system that meets growing demand within the constraints of carbon neutrality, we must avoid the pitfalls that have plagued past responses. In particular, we must strike the proper balance between ideology and realism, the public and private sectors, and long and short term considerations.

Nonetheless, the PBOC s tactical decision is not without potential pitfalls not least because interest rate cuts encourage the extension of more credit at a time when China is trying to wean itself from debt intensive growth. A key challenge will be to avoid escalating credit risk, which could undermine the process of reform and rebalancing.

Indeed, the IST s close association with the US backed establishment of a successor regime is fraught with political pitfalls. Transitional criminal justice must be broad enough to reconcile a divided Iraq, and, therefore, include Shi a and Kurdish crimes against humanity, while it apparently must also avoid embarrassing the US or its allies, particularly regarding their extensive dealings with Saddam s regime.
