Over the course of his career, Jim Yong Kim, a medical doctor, has headed efforts to fight AIDS at the United Nations, founded a non-government organization that promotes health care around the world, and taught at Harvard's Schools of Medicine and Public Health. Now he's the president of Dartmouth College.
The Korean-born U.S. citizen impressed President Barack Obama, who nominated him for the World Bank job.
"It's time for a development professional to lead the world's largest development agency."
Japan's Finance Minister Jun Azumi says Kim's work at the World Health Organization was impressive.
Some development experts, though, say the bank focuses on promoting economic growth to pay for health care, education, and infrastructure.“在过去的一年半里,接受治疗的人数增长了一倍多。在艾滋病毒/艾滋病领域里,从没有过这样的进展。”
在他的职业生涯中,作为一名医生,金辰勇在联合国带头与艾滋病做斗争,成立了一个非政府组织来改善全世界的医疗状况,并在哈佛大学的医学院和公共卫生学院任教。如今,他是达特茅斯学院的校长。
巴拉克•奥巴马总统对这位在韩国出生的美国公民印象深刻,并提名他为世界银行行长。
“是时候让研究发展的专业人士来领导全世界最大的发展机构了。”
日本财务大臣安住淳称金辰勇在世界卫生组织的工作令人赞叹。
然而,一些发展专家表示,世界银行的主要任务是通过促进经济增长来为医疗、教育和基础设施提供资金。
