Donor countries satisfied…
Last week a three day international conference held in London to discuss the progress made by Afghanistan during the last couple of years and to ask for more help in the coming five years. Various countries pledged around US$ 10.5b for the next three to five years.
Around US$ 12.4b has been contributed over the last four years but this huge amount of money did not improve the livelihood of common people who are still facing economical and social hardships. Many people believe that a large chunk of US$ 12.4b aid did not even reach the needy people which deserved it.
What is your opinion about this issue and how do you think that the new aid pledge should be spent in the coming years?
