Mallaby wrote that Indonesia reduced its infant mortality and illiteracy rates by two-thirds after economists persuaded its leaders to borrow money in\n1970. He also disagrees with Perkins' statement that 51 of the top 100 world economies belong to companies.\n\n\nA press release issued by the U.S Department of State\n(DOS), said there was a lack of documentary or testimonial evidence to corroborate Perkins's statement that the NSA was involved in his hiring by Chas T. Main.\nThe DOS release stated that the NSA \"is a cryptological (codemaking and codebreaking) organization, not an economic organization\" and that its missions do not involve \"anything remotely resembling placing economists at private companies in order to increase the debt of foreign countries.\"”",
