Rajiv Shah: outlook for international development
Upon being nominated for the position as administrator two months before the Haitian earthquake, he was told by his predecessor, Andrew Natsios, that if a disaster occurs he would have to "drop all that and focus on that emergency for as long as it takes to make sure that we get it right." Dr. Shah responded that he really did not think that was likely in his first hundred days.
