What should be ahead for G20?

Comments on Paul Kelly, “Shift to G20 was matter of time”, 28/09/2009, http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,25197,26133473-7583,00.html

Australia deserves a seat at the top table, because of its dominant position in the Pacific region.

However, as Kelly acknowledged that "the sceptics are right to warn of the risks: that the G20 will be too big, too divided and unable to deliver genuine outcomes by consensus."

So there should be a consolidation of the G economic grouping to make it both representative and workable. It should be smaller in size and also has a workable and efficient and effective governance structure.

In this regard, an article "Deciding who decides at the G20 summit" on http://www.eastasiaforum.org/ has shed some light and is worth reading. I have provided some comments that further complement that article’s ideas.
