JAMES WOLFENSOHN

 James Wolfensohn is a mass of contradictions. A

millionaire bon viveur who sees himself as the champion
of the poor; an Australian who took US citizenship so
allowing him to take the top job at the World Bank; a
former investment banker who criticises rich countries;
and a man paid $276,990 who worries about those living
on less than a dollar a day.
 He appears to live and breathe the sometimes fetid
atmosphere of development politics - controversial
issues such as official aid, debt and poverty relief and
major investment projects in some of the world's most
troubled nations that
always attract controversy.
 Political relationship and funding.

 NGOs funding.

 Wolfowitz's relationship with Shaha Rizav

 After President George W. Bush's nominated Wolfowitz
as president of the World Bank, journalists reported that

Bank Senior Communications Officer (and Acting
Manager of External Affairs) for the Middle East and
North Africa Regional Office Shaha Ali Riza.[51]
According to Richard Leiby, of The Washington Post,
Riza is "an Oxford-educated British citizen, was born in
Tunisia and grew up in Saudi Arabia
 bank's ethics rules preclude
 "Mr. Wolfowitz's contract requiring that he adhere to the
Code of Conduct for board officials and that he avoid any
conflict of interest, real or apparent, were violated";
 "The salary increase Ms. Riza received at Mr. Wolfowitz's
direction was in excess of the range established by Rule
6.01";
 "The ad hoc group concludes that in actuality, Mr
Wolfowitz from the outset cast himself in opposition to the
established rules of the institution"; and
 "He did not accept the bank's policy on conflict of interest,
so he sought to negotiate for himself a resolution different
from that which would have applied to the staff he was
selected to head.
