Passage 1 [br] [originaltext] I hereby announce that the U. S. National Inst

I hereby announce that the U. S. National Institute of Health has endorsed acupuncture for treating certain types of sickness or ill condition. These include the nausea, the sort of sickness that a patient suffers when treated with chemotherapy, or the vomiting or nausea that accompanies pregnancy, or post-operative dental pain. We have come to the very clear-cut sort of decision that treatment under these circumstances really works, especially with the effects of stroke, the acupuncture treatment is very successful.
    Besides, 40% of the drug courts in the United States will use acupuncture as an important supplement to their usual therapy. Studies show that one of the key benefits of acupuncture that seems to be emerging from various studies is that it has few, if any, side effects; and that when used with standard drug treatment—in anesthesia, for example—it allows physicians to cut back on medication, delivering the same level of benefit with fewer negative effects.

I believe that the central challenge we face today is to ensure that globalization becomes a positive force for all people across the globe, instead of leaving billions of them behind in squalor. Inclusive globalization must be built on the great enabling force of the market, but market forces alone will not achieve it. It requires a broader effort, based upon our common humanity in all its diversity, to create a shared future.
    Inclusive globalization requires that we think afresh about how we manage our joint activities and our shared interests, for many challenges that we confront today are beyond the reach of any state to meet on its own. We need international institutions to govern together. We must also adapt international institutions to the realities of the new era. Globalization must be no less than inclusive, allowing everyone to share its opportunities.
