Practically all countries of Asia have pledged at the national as
well as international level to reduce the number of hungry and food
insecure. A concrete step in this direction was taken in the World
Food Summit in Rome, in 1996, when the nations resolved to reach
the goal of food security. It was further reiterated at the
Millennium Summit held in New York in 2000 where the United Nations
adopted the Millennium Declaration, which contains goals and
targets in important areas of human development. One of these goals
is to eradicate extreme poverty and hunger. This particular study
aimed to examine the results of the efforts to achieve food
security in Asian Countries in the context of Millennium Goals.
Having adopted the basic premise that factors determining food
security can be best understood at the country level, the study was
based on country case studies: two least developed countries
(Cambodia and Nepal), two medium-income countries undergoing fast
structural changes (Indonesia and Thailand), and one large and fast
developing country (India).
