The recent spate of terrorist bombings in various parts of the world is a clear indication that we have to fight that growing scourge with urgency.

The recent spate of devastation caused by these natural disasters brings into sharper focus the extreme vulnerability of low lying coastal areas and small island developing States.

Mr. Hian (Singapore) said that the recent spate of natural disasters, including the Indian Ocean tsunami, showed that the real challenge facing the international community was how to achieve sustainable development.

Recalling the spate of recent international natural disasters, he drew attention to the importance of disaster preparedness, and welcomed the mechanisms on disaster reduction and early warning systems that had been introduced.

We have seen that with the spate of violence following the formation of the new Government.

The recent earthquake and tsunami, and the spate of hurricanes that hit the Caribbean region last year, highlight the increasing number and scale of natural disasters and their growing impact, with massive loss of life and critical damage to socio economic infrastructure.

But the recent spate of high profile cases harms the reputation of the sector as a whole. As the world looks to Silicon Valley and sees an echo chamber of self righteous conceit, mature and law abiding technology companies are assumed to be inside it, too.

However, that positive assessment was marred by the recent spate of natural disasters and the vulnerability of developing countries to risks stemming, inter alia, from high and uncertain oil prices, inflationary pressures in real estate markets and the longer term threat to financial stability posed by persistent global imbalances.

SINGAPORE To the extent that culture matters in politics, the recent spate of leadership changes in Northeast Asia suggests that Asian societies are more tolerant if not supportive of dynastic succession. South Korea s recently elected president, Park Geun hye, is the daughter of Park Chung Hee, who ruled the country from 1961 to 1979.

The introduction of chemical weapons and the possibility of Western military intervention threaten to draw Israel directly into the conflict. The spillover effects of the Syrian crisis have also unsettled Lebanon, exemplified in the recent spate of sectarian violence, and threaten to destabilize Jordan, which is struggling under the burden of more than 500,000 Syrian refugees.

One quarter of China s people drink substandard water one third of urbanites breathe badly polluted air. Moreover, the country recently witnessed a spate of environmental accidents.

But the field s credibility is also being undermined from within, by the growing prevalence of scientific misconduct reflected in a recent spate of retracted scientific publications and an increasingly unbalanced scientific workforce that faces perverse incentives. Although the vast majority of scientists adhere to the highest standards of integrity, the corrosive effects of dishonest or irreproducible research on science s credibility cannot be ignored.

We should care about that scenario, because remaining on a path of rising global emissions is almost certain to cause havoc and suffering for billions of people as they are hit by a torrent of droughts, heat waves, hurricanes, and more. We have already experienced the onset of this misery in recent years, with a spate of devastating famines, floods, and other climate related disasters.

Furthermore, in the unlikely event that it is adopted, the group of four's framework draft resolution could be expected to result in a spate of candidatures for permanent membership from every region.

Along that same line, I have to tell you that with the spate of Hollywood movies that came out last year, we have never seen monsters underground at least the kind that eat you.

The National Transitional Government of Liberia and all donors must give urgent attention to the current spate of unregulated and illegal harvesting of timber and rubber, the mining of diamonds and gold and the attendant environmental consequences of those activities.

For example, Singapore is harnessing its near complete fiber optic network to reduce urban congestion by introducing a spate of measures encouraging workers to telecommute. As these measures take effect, self sufficient satellite towns will likely develop, reducing transportation related energy consumption further, while fostering a more active civil society.

Now a spate of scientific analyses, based on brain imaging technology and new anthropological and evolutionary discoveries, suggests that we may have had our heads in the sand, and that we must be willing to grapple with what seem to be at least some genuine, measurable differences between the sexes.
