- W844273301 abstract "While Asian governments have for some time pursued high rates of growth as their primary economic goal, provision of social protection tended to be viewed as an expensive luxury that only rich economies can afford. Most Asian governments, while maintaining a few social programs to assist very poor and disadvantaged groups, have generally considered social protection as the responsibility of one’s self, family, and close community. The chapter examines the status and trends of social protection policies in Asia and the Pacific. It also links social protection and social policy discussion with post-global financial crisis concerns over growth rebalancing. The chapter also discusses long-term policy challenges in this area and provides conclusion and recommendations. The authors argue that Asian countries should capitalize on the opportunity presented by the recent global financial crisis to reform and build up their social protection systems in a financially sustainable manner. In the case of pensions, governments should take actions to ensure the sustainability and adequacy of benefits for the elderly. In low-income countries, governments should concentrate limited resources on social assistance programs that address extreme poverty and basic health and nutrition needs, giving special attention to pregnant women, new mothers, and young children." @default.
