Bill Gates, Elon Musk’s attacks were the right to defend USAID – take the effect from one

In 1961, US President John F. Kennedy Created the new Federal AgencyUnited State Development Agency (USAID). Her It was aimed “To help get rid of disaster, avoid poverty and engage in democratic reforms.” USAID among 100 additional countries helped around the world for the next 64 years my ownPhilippines.

Last week, USAID officially stopped operations. Only the day before, Dear British Medical Magazine published an investigation into the Lancet Warning on potential results already. Usaid’s removal, research can help with 14 million additional deaths in the next five years. The researchers described some countries as “for a global pandemic or large armed conflict” on the basis of “conscious and preventive policy choices.”

I was born in the Philippines, once in the United States, a period of World War II. But also I always felt a kin with the United States. Thus, in 1977 I decided to take my ambitions and a master’s degree in America. A citizen whose allegiance I swear by the Federal Court in Manhattan and a citizen we are an American citizen was always ranking among my life.

Until then, I did not have any idea how much the USAID has succeeded in the Philippines, I will be involved in person.

Battle over USAID

Truth in February Social, President Donald Trump Announced the expenditure of USAID “It cannot be explained completely … close it.” O Claimed to be managed by the agency “Radical Left Lunatics.” Tesla The government’s efficiency, waste and abuse, waste and abuse, “corruption” and “corruption” and “criminal organization” and “criminal organization” and “criminal organization” were not “Corruption and” Corruption “and” Corruption “and” Criminal Organization “. Sent x.

In a short order, Microsoft Cofounter and philanthropist intervened and met with President Trump in the White House, and came together to support the wide financing for USAID and support the lawyer. The doors called the best of all the world’s development agencies in the world. In May he Defendant Musk “Kills the world’s poorest children.” But then dying was thrown like a trump characterized the budget and staff cuts It was already shot in USAID as “destructive”.

Nevertheless, other prominent rivals of the controversial incisions were violated. In a special video conferencing, in late June, the presidents said goodbye to the Agency for the Agency with USAID employees, President George W. Bush and Barack Obama. “Usaid intestine travesty” said Obama, “and this is a tragedy.” Bush asked USAID employees: “Is the national interests that are killed now? I think so.”

USAID achievements

As I have learned to live in the Philippines in 2000, USAID, any measures, completely did the work of Yeoman. Eating from American farmers AC families and refugees are hungry. Employees distributed drugs for malaria, HIV and other infectious diseases that save their lives. Allowed communities to combat poverty and develop economicallyDuring this period, it builds new consumer markets for American goods.

In the 1960s, the country still helped to establish USID national government agencies and educational institutions, which saved the destruction of World War II. Then the usaid drew attention Strengthening democratic institutions.

A great new USAID program in 2012 overcome the tuberculosis Treatment success increases by 92%.

Hit home

In its country, since 1993, USAID has been torn in the south by helping farms and other homes to return to society and otherwise in the south.

Thanks to the USAID, the mother’s death in almost a period of 23 years in almost half of 100,000 to 114,000 from 100,000 to 114 to 11,000 to 11,000 to 11,000 to 114,000 to 114,000 USAID support to stop the extreme reduction and environmental violation.

But it’s all hard. USAID, English, mathematics and science were taught more than 19,000 Philippines teachers. As a result, the percentage of students on the sites helped USAID (National Criteria for National Criteria for Negligent and Concept It is almost fourUp to 76% in 2013 in 2013 to 76%.

In Destructive awakening of Typhoon Haiyan In 2013, the land, one of the largest storms for the reconstruction of USAID, helped to restore health clinics and water systems and water systems and water systems and survivors. Recently, it began programs that strengthen the economies of cities to promote Manila’s sustainable growth.

Philippine economy today sorts as According to the International Monetary Fund, the largest 32nd largest part of the world’s largest world in GDP and the world. This year The World Bank said“His economic dynamism supports increased urbanization, a large and young population and a strong consumer requirement with strong money transfers that lift the revenue of the living labor market and the most sensitive ones.” The case can make a significant contribution to USAID funds and spot, the Philippines contributed to the current socio-economic length of the Philippines.

As the head of the Private Sector Disaster Management Organization, I Collaborated with USAID in numerous projects in the last 10 years. We helped communities and municipalities together Prepare troubleOften the storms activated the energy department to improve the energy sector, strengthened the stability of the main regions and managed a joint civil defense office with private companies to provide relief to the regions resulting in a disaster.

I also had the opportunity to go to shoulder with USAID as lead for the opportunity. We joined the steps program that strengthens entrepreneurship and innovations.

‘American people’

USAID, USAID has embodied America’s best ideals for us and created aura of goodwill between our countries. Rather, it helped to be the most sensitive of sensitive, everything is in demand for American Knowhow and products.

All of these programs have been completed sharply this year, and almost everyone I know that I have left the USAID and went home. About 1,600 USAID employees, the first step in “reduction – in force” was placed in the global-scale administrative content.

Last month, US Ambassador to the United States Marykay Carlson, officially lowered the curtain in this long-term life line between our country. The members of the local staff of USAID have hosted a farewell party with members of local workers. I took part in what was felt like more divorce than an awakening.

Someone after the party and all the speeches, a pencil, a pencil, a pencil, a pencil, a coupe, a calendar, a book written by the motto of usaid, “American people”. When I entered the damp tropical night, I jammed the bag with a close grip with the most gratitude to America and all Americans.

On this disappointment, the US and Philippines will be the friendly terms of the United States and the Philippines, which are a bilateral prospect that squeezed the country in both countries, the US State Department will restore USAID’s Hero’s march.

One Apply to Congress on Foreign AidPresident Kennedy said, “We have obligations to perform, we have great opportunities to implement.” Months later As it started from USAIDreflected these words with a message to today. He said: “People against help must understand that this is a very strong source of power for us … Allows you to influence freedom protection … We send you American troops to send to many areas.”
