Our dream is a world free of poverty.

We are not a bank in the common sense. Owned by 185 member countries, we are one of the world's largest sources of development assistance, with a mission of fighting poverty with passion by helping people help themselves.

Conceived in 1944 to reconstruct a war torn Europe, we work in more than 100 developing countries, bringing a mix of financing programs and ideas to improve living standards and eliminate the worst forms of poverty.

We are managed by our member countries and many developing countries use our assistance - ranging from loans and grants to technical assistance and policy advice.

Thank you for the World Bank!
All the people in the world need something to explore the life and livelihood, either through money or material on the need for daily life.
Now the World Bank must be versed on how to manage and secure the financial system so that there is no chaos or commotion that is not desired by all the people of the world.
As the financial crisis is going to engulf the world, people feel nervous and panic and fear losing their property and inheritance all, good for the poor and for rich people, they all feel worried financial crisis of the incident that occurred at the time now.
The World Bank should be cautious and smart in the financial processing to avoid corruption and collusion.
Thanks to the World Bank, would not mind if we want to join organizations, whether through music, culture, economy and so forth.

Peace.
