水与卫生不仅对发展至关重要,而且对生活而言的的确确是必不可少的:水是生命,而卫生是尊严。国际社会承诺让全世界更多的人能够使用上安全的水和卫生设施。这是千年发展目标之一。目前距2015年仅有8年时间,但亚洲仍有近7亿人无法使用上清洁安全的饮用水,有近20亿人无法获得适当的卫生设施。
Water and sanitation are not only crucial for development, but they are indeed essential to life: water is life and health is dignity. The international community is committed to making safer water and sanitation facilities accessible to more people throughout the world. This is one of the Millennium Development Goals. It is only eight years away from 2015, but nearly 700 million people in Asia are still out of access to clean, safe drinking water and nearly 2 billion people do not have access to adequate sanitation.
