"Schools and health centres built by the British in Afghanistan as part of the military's counter-insurgency strategy are being forced to close down because President Karzai's government cannot afford to pay for them.

Britain has spent hundreds of millions of pounds in the province over the last six years building and restoring services decimated by conflict and the years of Taliban rule."


Hundreds of millions???

Lets just leave them to it.  >:(

"The challenge for Afghanistan now is not a lack of roads and school buildings. It is a lack of capacity in its governmental structures in particular to run the country."

IMHO, some Afghan's don't want help, those in Gov etc. Or those opposed to Gov.
I'm sure there's thousands that  do  :(
