Many parts of the world are becoming more fragile, making quality leadership and good governance ever more important. 2019-01-04T20:57:10Z 2019-01-04T20:57:10Z 2016-02-08 Speech http://documents.worldbank.org/curated/en/746651536734102062/Remarks-by-World-Bank-Group-President-Jim-Yong-Kim-at-the-World-Government-Summit http://hdl.handle.net/10986/31108 English Delivered in Dubai, February 8, 2016; CC BY 3.0 IGO http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/igo World Bank World Bank, Washington, DC Speech Middle East and North Africa United Arab Emirates
