In 2002, for the sixth consecutive year, developing countries made a net transfer of financial resources of almost 200 billion dollars to other countries, the United Nations Secretary-General, Mr Kofi Annan has said. Annan who spoke at the high-level dialogue of the general Assembly on financing for development, said such a situation lacked common sense. "Funds should be moving from developed countries to developing countries, but these numbers tell us the opposite is happening," he said.
