Summers" I am following up on a request by Mongolian Prime Minister Saikhanbileg. He met with Professor Summers and would like to have him visit Mongolia to discuss the economy and economic policy with key decision makers including the PM himself. The background to this is that the PM is facing a delicate balancing act. With the sharp decline in commodity prices Mongolia needs economic and policy adjustment, but the politics of this is hard to navigate not least because next year is an election year. I think he wants professor Summers to bring an independent, highly credible voice to the debate. Since I knew that professor Summers was coming to Beijing I opportunistically contacted Fred Hu to reach out to you to make this happen. We would be most pleased to have Professor Summers in Mongolia, even if only for a day or so. Ulaanbataar is only 2 hours flying away from Beijing. We would host professor Summers and give him the support he needs to credible engage with policy makers, and public and press if needed/acceptable. We would cover his trip and would provide a fee. Unfortunately we are constrained by World Bank rates for consultants, the maximum of which is about $1500 per day. We can be somewhat flexible in the number of days. I sincerely hope that professor Summers is interested in this assignment. If so, we would need to act fast as we would need to arrange the trip and a contract. EFTA00842497
