LANGKAWI: African, Asian and Caribbean leaders brainstormed Tuesday for new solutions to poverty in countries where millions of people are unemployed and suffering severe food shortages.
Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir highlighted how improving food security measures might spare their populations from hunger during droughts, while Swaziland's King Mswati III, whose agricultural nation is often battered by crop failures, raised the need to attract foreign investment to modernize their economies.
