18 may: UN Increases Food Deliveries in Country Amid Piracy

Un News Service (New York):




The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) today began a distribution of food to 122,500 Somalis affected by violence while warning that piracy is hampering its operations.

"We are expanding our distributions to the displaced - many of whom are women and children - with this round of distributions, which means WFP should be reaching 80 per cent of the 150,000 we plan to feed," said Peter Goossens, the agency's Somalia Country Director in Nairobi.


Mr. Goossens charged that the pirates "are very cruelly playing with the lives of the most vulnerable women and children who had to leave their homes because of fighting" and appealed to the Somali authorities to act "before they cause more misery both to the crews of hijacked ships and to the people who rely on WFP food for their survival."

The food is a very important component to ensure the wellbeing of the poblation of a country. With no food, the county's people can not perpetuete themselves, so the lavor force won't be ensured for the tomorrow. In this form, the country wouldnt can expect grow in the further generations.
