Now, we are told, ASEAN+3 has achieved another great breakthrough, the so-called Chiang Mai Initiative Multilateralization (CMIM), aimed at turning its bilateral swaps and credits into a regional reserve pool. The goal was set in 2005, and last month ASEAN+3 finance ministers negotiated the details.
而现在，据说“东盟+3”又取得了一项重大突破，即所谓“清迈倡议多边化”——旨在把双边货币互换和信贷机制升级成地区性储备池的一个进程。这一目标是2005年设立的，其实施细节则于上个月在“东盟+3”财长会议上商定。会上明确了各成员经济体向1200亿美元储备池出资的比例、借款条件以及投票权的分配等等。
