".
More than 2.5 billion people in developing countries have no drinking water, and 3 million die every year from water-borne diseases such as typhoid fever, dysentery, cholera, hepatitis, malaria, trachoma, fluorosis, and Japanese encephalitis. We must ensure that the water objectives of Monterrey and Johannesburg (a 50% reduction in the number of people without access to drinking water and sanitation by 2015) are implemented as soon as possible. It is just as crucial, however, to encourage the EU water initiative launched at Johannesburg, costing EUR 700 million. Finally, I welcome the proposal for the establishment of a European Water Fund to help the ACP states."@en1
